LrT THE EXPERIMENT' BE THIRD. Slaves in Kansas.— During the past six months the stave population in this portion of the Territory has greatly increased. Many settlers from South Carolina, Virginia and other Soulhern States have wisely brought slaves with them, as’heing the most effectual way of settling the question of Slavery in the Territory, These are the kind ofsettlers we need here now. A Niue Game. —Old Bullion and bis sa tellites, Bl.iir and Brown, are playing it out pretty strong. They pretend to be for Bu-' ehnoan, «hen in fact, they are his deadly foes. If they succeed in dividing the Demo cratic vote, in go the Know-Nothing Presi dential electors,* and Missouri Is lost to Bu chanan, This will bring that beautiful son in-law of Old Bullion’s into the House, when all the Black Republican’s and Know-Noth ings will unite on him and make him Presi dent. Tuk Palmetto Rifles-28tb or Joke. — The'memorable 2911 t having been decided upon os ihe anniversary of the Palmetto Ri fles, or Atchison, the day was duly celebra ted by a parade and banquet. At the head of the table hung the “ blood red flag," with the Lone Star, and the motto of •* Southern Rights’’ on Ihe one side, and “ South Carolina’’ on the other. The same flag that first floated on the rifle-pits of the abolitionists at Lawrence, and on the hotel of ihe some place, in triumph, now hung over the heads of the noble soldiers who bore it so bravely through that exditing War. The fallowing are among the toasts drank : 3. Kansas—Our chosen home—stand by her. Yes ! sons of the South, make her a Stare State, or die in the attempt / [This toast was received with loud and continued applause.] 5. South Carolina —Our mother—she lives in our hearts. While true to her, we know she will be true to us. 6. Missouri-Our ally-nobly has she stood by her younger sister. All hail to the gal lant “ Bolder Ruffians.” We owe them one. 7. Gen. D. R. Atchison—Recognized by South Carolina as one fit lo command—he has but lo give the order, and, to a man, we will basie To the just and glorious strife. With our knives, Southern Right shielding; Nay, resign, if it mast he done, even life. But die, at least unyielding. 10, The Hon. Preston S.

Disunion—By secession, or otherwise —a beacon of hope lo an oppressed people, and the surest remedy for Southern wrongs. [Enthusiastic cheers.] The Squatter Sovereign—May it ever re ceive a hearty support from that South whose interests it has so warmly defended. This sentiment was received with applause, end after a few remarks to response from Col. R. 8. Kelley, three cheers were given for “the squatter sovereign.” In sitting down, Col. Kelley offered the following: The City of Atchison—May she, before the close of the year ’57, be the capital of a Southern Republic [Cheers.] By S. B. Alexander : Kansas—The Pro-Slavery parly will assert -and maintain the supremacy of the while race, or die in the attempt. By Lieut, Grierson : The Press—Unmuzzled, it breathes the air of Freedom. By Wallace Jackson: Kansas—We will make her a Slave Slate, or form a chain of lobked arms and hearts together, and die in the attempt. By Dr, G. T. Lary: The Palmetto Flag—We brought it here In honor, let us return it the same. By W. H. Jenkins: The Distribution Of the Public Lands— One hundred and sixty acres lo every Pro- Slavery settler, and lo every Abolitionist six feet by two. By Major E. L. Yates : Sheriff Jones of Douglas County— A mar tyr to Southern Rights; may he long survive his attempted assassination, and may bis re venge be, Kansas a Slave Slate. Mr. Jenkins gave— “ The health of D. R. Atchison, the Bor der Ruffian Chief.” [Drank standing.] (Kr Three river and harbor improvemqpl bills have been passed over the veto of Pres- idenl Pierce. Thus the Buchanan men are I turning their backs on their internal improve [ ment principles, as well as on the doctrine of squatter sovereignty. So it goes. A Tew years ago, they were all in favor of the Wil. root proviso. Then, at the instance of James Buchanan, his party in this State abandoned the Wilmol proviso, and advocated the ex'en sion of the Missouri Compromise line to the Pacific Ocean. Then they discovered that the Missouri Compromise was unconstitutional, and went for its repeal j and no w they abandon the principle which they offered as a justifica tion for this repeal. No wonder all men of principle abandon tuck a party,—Journal Covderiporl.

The plot is fine ly situated and with proper encouragement must brl come one of the most attractive places around Wells, boro. Let us see the opportunity now presented to this public well improved. Bully Brooks challenged Mr, Burlingame, The latter accepted; whereupon Bully backs down. Dueling is hardly justifiable in any case; it was not in this. No honorable man can have anything lo do with Brooks, unless it begin with holding him for some good, athletic negro lo cowhide, and end with disgracing Ihe handiwork of some honest shoe maker. The goodfolk of Kecncyville attempted lo do partial justice to the notorious coward lost Fri. day afternoon, and succeeded so far as to hang him in effigy. We would suggest an improvement— hang him heels up. Murderers and, other -r* 11 -**- bie gentry hang > urules, it hung at all, shouldb'-n oy the heels. Lying. We think mythology is silent upon that point, bat there mast have been a god of Lying among the multitude of heathen deities. The worship, st lesyt has been kept op from age to age, and is to-day the only form of religious worship in vogne among cer tain politicians. We refer lo the puppy-dogs, (we say “poppy-dogs," rather than “ileDtbhaunds," oat of respect for the canine race.) of the Slave power here io the North. For never,since the estehlishmeol of hnman Governments, has the God of Liars beeo so well and faithfully served as he is being semd this day by the leaders of the Border Ruffian Democra cy—the minions of Buchanan and Fillmore. Among the ten or twelve Border Ruffian papers that come to os weekly, there seems to be a fierce strife for the Liar’s hays. We mutter a great deal of questionable English while glancing over their columns, reeking ss (hey do with (he unmistakable sulphor.stencb peculiar to (he garments oi the Fa ther of Liars. And among these patrons of. the twin saints—Ananias and Sapphira, we find certain whilom friends and companions, whom we bad hop ed to find in belter business than their patron saints followed—lying awsy (be lands sat apart for free men. Our friends will bear witness that we have never resorted to billingsgate In dealing with contempora ries. While we have been assailed by very many, coarsely and unmercifully, we have never found it necessary to retort in like manner. But there are certain terms more neatly eiprenlog the characters of men and actions than others. Tims, Franklin Pierce is a maudlin tyrant; Bully Brooks is a cow ard; Arnold Douglsa is a liar; Senator Butler is a conceited dotard. These terms are appropriate and applicable—he who Uses them always holding him self responsible for every word uttered. Therefore,abould we use Karsh language toward any contemporary in'ihis article, we beg him to re member that we hold onnelf strictly responsible for any and every word. We ate not quarrelsome, but love peace and quiet above all conditions; but we have no faith in the TrUmtu't plan for silencing po litical Kars, that it, by opposing argument. Let ev ery Republican editor make every lie promulgated and persisted in by a hanker contemporary a per sona) matter. Let him demand the prooffor every (kite statement; and If that it denied, let the state ment be branded as a lie, and the protxmlgator as a iier and m csicard» ftt every wiltol liar la a coward. In the midst of a column of teas palpablt false hoods io a Border Ruffian sheet before us, and whoaa editor as in acme respects one of the' most compete, ionable men we ever met, we find snore so grossly malicious that they ahoajd not bo passed over. It sayst “They (Die Republicans,) do prepare to mike the State of Missouri their next battle-field and thus drive slavery to the wall; the very words of Gerrilt Smith in a late speech at Buffalo, the chief leader of the New York Republicans.” Gerrilt Smith is the' leader of the Radical Aboli tionists, and la to-day the candidate of that party for the Presidency, and is moreover, one of tit.mott aoeempnmiiing enemies of Iho Republican or gold, settee in tie North, This fact needs do attestation, for nobody will deny it.

The thing is morally impossible.” - -,,i Before the paper in which the above appears was issued, the (kot that Brooks had backed down at Mr. Burlingame's terma-r i ‘so paces—rifles—near Clifl on House, Canada”—an event which did not prove the latter to be bravo, hot did prove Bully Brook* a bellowing coward—was well known to the editor if be takes the Tribune, which he used to do. The paragraph, then, is a malicious lie. As to the ino endo aimed at the courage of anti-slsvery men, it is a coward's privilege to dreg everybody down to his own level. He has too little spirit to print the truth wbon it woold do belter than falsehood. Wiljjie ever learn by experience whether tnli-sisvery men will fight or not? Lost that editor should feel flattered by so ranch notice from a respectable quarter of the State, we hasten to assure him that it ia the principle and not the individual, which calls fur this extended notice. Not that we recognize any difference between a Lie and a liar, for we do not. We would be glad to aee some of uur Republican contemporaries forbear quoting Mr. Buchanan's teq cent speech, as it is catted, os also the “drop of da. mocratic blood” story. We have read the speech referred to, and cheerfully testily Ihst such an in terpretation is so far-fetched os to be ridiculous. It is by no means founded either upon the 1 etter or in the spirit of that speech. As for us, vypjcil) jmv-~ er enter the - wittingly, rr onff'lie could defeat Mr.'Bachman, we would not fellowship the man who should disgrace his manhood by retailing that lie. If an adherence to the true issue bring defeat, so be it; we shsll not in such an improbable event owe anything to falsehood bat eternal enmity. If we understand the Republicans of Tioga coun ty, they do not’ oppose Buchanan because lie baa been s Federalist, or that be is said to have advoca ted a redaction of the wages of labor, or that be is thought at one lime to have contemplated the pos sible presence of s drop of democratic blood in his veins with horror; but they oppose him because be is the open and avowed champion of Slavery exten sion. He most, be teiU be defeated, not by lying, but because he would assist to corse the Great West with the most damnable of despotisme. Look on that gray-haired man, tottering on the grave's brink, and ask yaarself if it will be a Christian act to aid that old man to curse his soul and insult posterity'. Our brethren will do as they please—so shall we. Some of them have nobly disdained to retail petty slanders affecting Mr. Buchanan. On the other hand, we have yet to see a pro-siavery Buchanan pa per whose columns do not reek with wilful lies and misrepresentations. We intend to call things and men by their right names henceforward, even if it do not in the least check the mendacious tide that floats the harks of the Buchaocers. We hive received Uie first number of • Buchan an paper published at Towanda by D. M'Kiklet Miaou. It is a neatly printed paper and is pro slavery to the backbone.

If Mr. Buchanan]is elected, the seal of approval will be set byjthe people of the United Stales on all the fraud, all the violence, alj the usurpation, all the burnings, robberies and murders, the news of which, for so many months, has been the melancholy burden of the mails from, the JVest. He will be as easily persuaded into a co-operation with these atrocities as he was into the folly of the Oiiend Manifesto. .In making up their minds whether they Are to support or to oppose Mr. Buchanan’s nomination, the people of the Uniied State's should carefully consider his behavior on the occasion to which we refer. No part of his life so completely illustrates his public char acter, or t so fully gives us to understand what we are to expect from him if be should be the President of our confederacy. The Oatend Manifesto was not an affair of haste; it was not the fruit of a sudden impulse; it was de termined upon after long deliberation ; it was a step taken with a full knowledge of all Us relations and consequences. It was a maturely weighed proposal to our Government to act the part of a pirate and robber against a nation which was anxious to preserve our good will, and .ready to settle its difficulties with us on the fairest terms. Of that character must we expect Mr. Buchan an’s public measures to be if we see him in the Excculivo.-C■ tat-lirrjKitaoinuy Tiur pcrnaps ite wrong, but. they will be fee ble, and they will be assuredly overcome by the malignant influences by which he is en vironed,'and from which he wants the form of.character which is necessary to set 'him self free. ■ V)e feel justified, therefore, in raising our wipe. of warning against the support of Mr. Buchaoan. After the Ostend Conference and Manifesto his proper part is absolute silence in regard to public affairs, and his proper place absolute retirement. From the Richmond Whig. Of the disagreeables : thb fear is that Old Buck can't be elected. Pennsylvania never has had a President—and (hero seems to be a fatality about her—and she never may.— Old Buck owed his nomination partly to the severity of the blows dealt by his friends against the present administration, and partly by the assault of Brooks on Sumner. This assault seemed all at once to give to parties a strictly sectional gha racier ; and there was no one of the Democratic aspirants, who had a fair chance of carrying a Northern State, except Buchanan. His friends claimed Penn sylvania as certain—the claim was allowed, and with that stock in trade he beat his com petitors. But Pennsylvania is the most doubt ful State in the Union—and even with it, Mr. Buchanan maybe a long ways from the White House. However, when the Black Republicans shall have entered their nag, we shall be able to give a betier guess of i he result. Ominous. —Four limes, say* the Louisville Journal, the Democratic party have selected a candidate for the Vice Presidency from Kentucky, and each time particularly with the view of carry ioglhe Slate for their ticket. In ISStf.ftey nominated Richard IK. Jbhrisob, to carry Kentucky, and they failed. ' In 1840, they re-nominated tbe Tecumseh Killer, and failed, hot only in Kentucky, but'almost everywhere else. In 1848, they nominated Gen. Wml O. Butter, and failed again to carry Kentucky, or to elect their cohdidateS. In 1850, they have nominated John C. Brechin ridge, and they will again fail most inglori oiibly everywhere. Thus, upon the three former occasions, when the Democratic party have nominated 1 a candidate for Vice Presi dent, specially with a view Of cariying the Slate, they have failed lb doso.

I'have not been in ihe past, nor shall Mm in. the future, instrumental in fostering such is sues. But the (repeal of Ihe Missouri' Com promise, and ad a consequence the extension of Slavery, are no issues raised by us; they are issues forced upon us, and we act but in self-defence when we repel them. That sec tion of the country which presents these is sues is responsible for them; and it is tbie sectionalism which has subverted past com promises, and oow seeks to force Slavery into Kansas. In reference to other subjects treated of in the resolutions of the Conven tion, I find no general principle or rule of political conduct to which-1 cannot and do not yield a cordial assent. But while thus expressing a general con currence in the views of the Convention, ( cannot but remember thnt the Constitution gives to the Vice-President little power in mat ters of general legislslion ; that be has not even a vote, except In special cases; and that his rights and duties as prescribed in (bat in strument are limited to presiding over the Senate of the United Stales.

The champions of Free Kansas in the House of Represetatives struck a noble blow in her behalf when they voted'(o appropriate money for the Military service of the ensuing year only on condition that the Army shall not be used to enforce the Border-Ruffian usurpation. The pretended “ laws" of the body which sat at Shawnee Mission and styled itself a Territorial Legislature of sas have no more rightful validity (ban those of the British army which once captured Washington City would have bad had that army resolved itself into an American Con gress, or elected one from its own body, end thereby proceeded gravely to enact the roan notation of the United Slates to Great Brit ain. Whenever and wherever the friends of Free Kansas have power, they will of course treat those “ laws” as the impudent impos ture and outrage (hey really are; where they have partial or divided authority, (hey will do the best they can. We beg the Free-State Members of the Mouse to follow up this 'well-aimed blow by others. To the clause in the general or any other Appropriation bill providing pay for Shannon, Lecompte, Donaldson and the rest of that crew, let other amendments be voted, striking at other features or incidents of the Border-Ruffian usurpation m Kansas. Let us in every way expose and riddle the base false hood now current in (he anti-Fremont jour nals that the Senate wants to repeal the Bor • der-RuJian laws in Kansas, but the House refuses. The notorious truth is fhat (he Sen ate oflers to repeal in part a few of the oh? noxious enactments of Slringfellow & Co., hy a provision which assumes and establishes the validity of all the rest. Instead of put ting an end to the Missourian usurpation, this Senate bill virtually affirms its validity. This the House must resist, even at the cost of being belied aod defamed aa they now are. But give the Senate opportunity after oppor tunity to repeal the Border-Ruffian laws; and even lo repeal (be worst of them sepa rately if that can be done without implying the validity of the rest. Serve up the repeal of those laws in every style, and let os sea the Senate make faces thereat. IWDouglas & Co., want to repeal the Border-Ruffian en. aotments which his first Kansas Report this Session said they couldn’t and wouldn’t re peal,, let them have abundant and varied op porlunities.—N.
