their discontent, and the arguments they pro

representative. - Trumbull avers that it
would have been impolitic and useless for the
Free State men to have participated its the
Election for delegates to the , constitutional
convention ; impolitic because by to doing
they would recognize the validity of the acts
of the Territorial Legislature ; useless, be
cause, he asserts, that the registry was im
perfect and incomplete, and, did not Contain"
a fair proportion of Free State voters. The
first objection is merely technical, and comes
with had grace from the allies -of those who
have•frequently recognized the leg-linty and
authority of that.. Legislature. The second,
or the assertion that the registry. was• incom
plete, should. not be made by those who-did
alt in their power to prevent a perfect and
complete registry. it It is well known that
the unprincipled 161.ers of the " Free State
-party," threw all the obstacles they could in'
the way of the officers appointed under the'
registratioo act ;• and that-in consequence of
offieers, though disposed to act
fairly, and to impartially discharge the duty
det..Olved upon them, were unable to obtain a
fail list - of the . v . ,?ter's names. The provisions .
of the registratiot law, were - eminently fair.
and just; affording nbuttt opportunity to
the Voter whose name • should be omitted
'from the liSt, inadvertently or otherwise, to
procure its insettion thereon. But this ob
jection because of an imperfect registry, can
not be used as an excuse for - refusing to vote
for or agaiost, the constitution when it is
submitted to the =trhoic people of Kansas, for
their adoption, or rtjection. Walker's prop
osition is to submit the constitution when
formed, to a vote of the actual residents of
. the. Territory, whether their -names are regis
teraot ; and itrites them all to partici
i pate in'That Election. This incitation Trum
bull is pleased to designate as insolent .and
the height of effrontery ! Why,helhus char.

neglects to produce his reasons. Jtroe 29th

veloped in.its Kansas policy, and June 30th,,
the pro•slavery secessionist curses the same
policy as certain to , bring Kansas . into the
Union as a free State. The hostility which
the extremists of both sections evince toward
that policy is the beat evidence of its wisdom,
its impartiality and justice.

ResolVed, that we shall require the schools

The lion. William L. Marcy Was foundin
his room to day, at noon,
.quite
-dead. lie
appeared - to he in his usual' good 'health this
morning. We hare not heard any cause 33-
signed for this sudden death.
July 5, 1837.
Governor Marcy's funeral will, it it'etpect,
eil r lake place here on Wednesday, on which
oceli,ion there will be a grind military. dis
play. Ills remains' will be brouglit down
froiii Ballston to moirow, in chr.rge of John
N. Wilder, El., and Mr. Delavan.
Mr. Marcy was in his iist year, haring
been born December 12, 178 G, in Sturbridge
Wor.cotcr t. , oui ? ey l }dna,. .After completing
his academic cOuise . in his native town he en
tered Brown Univeisity, Providence, R. .1.,
and graduated there in 1808. From thence
he removed to Troy, N.Y., and commenced the
practice of the law, having studied in the of
fice o f J o hn Russell, El., an eminent praeti
tiotier, taking 'a prOminent part in politics at
the same time as a democrat. During the
war with Great Britain in 1812 and 1814,
Mr. Marcy serves as a volunteer in defence
of his State. He' bell a Lieutenant's corn=
mission and did service at St. Regius on. the
Canada frontier. In 1816 he was appointed
Recorder of the city of TrOy, but. was remov
ed two rears afterwards when De Witt Clin
ton filled the Gubernatorial office, Mr: Marcy
having taken sides with Martin Van Buren
in opposition to Governor Cliaton's Policy.—
Subsequently he was appointed by Governor
Yates to the post of Adjutant General in 18-
21, and removed to Albany, where he has
since resided. On the organization of .tbat
potent and secret association, called the " Al,-
lathy Regency," Mr. Marcy became one of
the utiostAilv
...• and
-- confidential members

To this connection with " the Regenc3" Mr.
Marcy doubtlesaliwed most of the good cue-'
cess which generally attended him
ical leader. In 1823 he received from the
Legislature the appointment of State Comp,
troller, which office he held for several years.
In 1829, he was appointed one of the Assooi
ate Justices of the Supreme Court of, the
State; but. in 1831 he resigned that office is

was considered through the four years,of his
service one.of the rnostinfluential members of
Mr. Polk's cabinet. The duties of the 'War ,
Department during the Mexican War were
arduous,ind.were discharged by Mr. Marcy 1
with energy and ability. - On his retireinent I
from the Cabinet, After the election of Taylor '
and Fillmore, Mr. Marcy exerted himself to
heal the dissensions in the democratic . patty
of this State, Although decidedly opposed
at that time to the free soil and,Wilinot pro
viio,reovernents of Van Buren and others in
the democratic party, Mr. Marcy -, urged.: the
union of the partras essential to success,and.
therefore became separited from many of his
hunker ftieuds. Thin feeling against him op
erated so far as probably to).prevent his nomi
nation for President at the' Democratic ".".le
tional Convention of 1832. With a large
section of the democratic party in this, State,
Mr. Marcy Was not popular ;
• but his ability
as a writer, tactician and. statesman,. was
6eoerallv admitted.
Mr. Marcy was for many years of his early
life,the editor °tam Tray. Budget: He was
connected with that journal, we believe; from
1817 to 1823. • Previous to thi be was - a I
frequent contributor to the TrOy Argus. Mr.
Marcy married the daughter of Benjamin
Knower, a wealthy hatter of Albany, who in
herited from her father a large estate. • It is -,
said that Mr. Marcy bad himself acquired
considerable property during late years by
land speculations in the West, but, it is doubt
ful-whether he die! rich, after all. It is
probable, however, he did not. 11
Governor Marcy acquired cm:siderable
reputation as a diplomatist and 'triter of
State documents titan his-able letter in -reply
to - Clen. Scott during the Mexican war,
.while
h. Ming the office of Secretary of War in Mr...
Poik's administration.; by his famous letter
to Chevelicrllnlseman on the K(szta
and his 'leper on privatevring addressed to
the government - of • the maratime powers of
Europe during. Iris late °et - Taney of the office
of Secretary of State.. His last official docu-
Meat was one addressed to the French Minis
ter, M, Sartiges, in reply to his application
for indemnity in behalf of the French resi
dents at Greytown who sufferred from the
bombardment of that town, not yet published,
'has been pronounced by those who have seen
it it masterly - letter on sb insignificant a sub
ject. It is said that when Lord Napier ap
plied to Mr. Cass for indemnity for the Brit : :
tish residents of Greytown, the venerable Se
cretary sent, him his predecessor's letter to M.
Sartiges.as his reply. In connection with
Gov. Marey's name will ever be remembered,
the famous motto of his party, as brief and
as significant as
.Cresar'slcelebrated war des
patch :
" To the victors belong the spoils,"
Mr. Marcy was conterup!ating, a' visit to
Europe in August, it is believed on some im
portant financial huittess ; but. the haud),of
the inexorable. tyrant, Death, has put . an tind
turever to all his schemes, political and finan
cial. •
. .
Mr. Marcy paid a visit
. a few weeks ago to
the scene.; of his early career (Troy), where
he erio\-ed a ple.asant.reunion with the friends .
of-his you:it—Hoe. Thomas B. Carroll, lion:
Thomas Clow-es, and Jacob Lane, his former :
law partner. Their conversation sins' livel y
ar:d full_ of anecdotal Mtter, referring.- to the
early events.of our politral histry-, when the
strife between the republicans a c i ljetieralists
cli k
was bitter, the extrerne. Mr. ` 1 :trey spoke
in tetras etnitadroiration .01; ,- ,tbei..,euccess,

career of military etiOrt in the service of 'his
.conntry, and added, that shortly after Wool, \
eho was formerly a dry goods merchant in
Troy, was burned out, he turned his attention
to the study of the law, but findieg that his
early education was unequal to the - task of a
seven years- course Of legal study, lie deter-
Mined to abandon it. . Meeting Macy :orie
morning. Wool 'observed to him that, he pro
po-ed giving up the law, and asked his ad
vide. The Governor advised the future gen
eral to apply for a commission in the army
of twentv-E've thousand men that was then
about being raised to prosecute the wEr-1812.
Wool' immediately procured the requisite
recommendations and was made a captain in
one of the regiments.
It was retriaike I as being, somewhat singu
lar that two men commencing so slenderly .
in life, in the same town, should cotempora
neously rise to eminent public position in he
service of the nation.
The ex-Secretary-told a story of old,James
Dole, who, in the early days, -was the ver
head and front of the federalists here, who
serted that he always laid his htind upon . fis
pocket-book when he passed by a dem rat.
The story illaltrates the depth and bitterness
of party rancor. • John Woodworth, one of
the early settlers of Troy, and a' prominent
-republican, had endorsed a.note for a 'certain,
party, to pay for Pennsylvania lands, and
therefore became liable:. - He found necessary
to protect himself, from the fact that an alle-_
gation of fraud in the.sale'of the rands was
made. An injunction' was obtained, and dis
tniistd by thipeourt in NeW York, and
. .a writ
of ad camas • watisfacienduna was taken out
unbe

quown to Woodworth ' for- . the sum of
;
fourtord hundred dollars, Sheriff Dote sought
to sett.° the writ upon Woodworth on a,Sht
