LATER FROM KANSAS. Hauliers and Customs of tUo Bor* dvr Kuftiam. CvmwpoadoDco of The N. Y. Tritmnr. Lawrence, On, 4, 1960 Ever since (ho rendition ol Anthony Burns in Boston, 1 have been looking Tor men. I have found them in Kansas. The virtue of courage (though these two words originally meant the same thing, they have become sep arated now,) has not died not of the Anglo- American race, es some have hastily -sup posed. It needs only circiimstanees'tn bring it out. A single day in Kansas makes the American Revolution more intelligible than all Sparks or Hildreth enn do. The same event is si.l) in progress here, I have always wondered whether in the midst of war, tumult, and death, the same daily current oflife went on, and men’s hearts accommodated themselves to the occasion.— In heroic races, 1 now see that it is so. In Kansas, nobody talks of courage, for every one is expected"to exhibit it. Take, for instance, the Sunday attack on Lawrence, a fortnight ago. Thfe army which approached it consisted of 2,800 by the esti mate here—3,ooo by Gov. Geary's estimate, and 3,200 by the statement of The Mitsouri Democrat, in a singular article which des cribed the conquest of the town, although u never happened. Thisfotce was in sight the greater part of the day, and though Gov. Geary’s aid was invoked, it was known that it could not arrive till evening; thusallouing time for the deslrucl.on of everything. Against this force, the number at first coun ted upon was one hundred ; that being the supposed number of fighting men left, after the arrest of the hundre'd about whom I wrote to you. ns prisoners. To the surprise of nil, however, more than twu hundred rallied to the for’ The lame came on crutches and the sHt in blankets.

And yet comes (he point) I was assured by Gov.

He showed also the nar row space through which the defenders fired, and I obsened that neatly all the rifla balls went atxne it, the tendency of Sharp’s rifles in inexperienced hands. « Franklin was the place where Ihe Free- Stale men were charged with taking the let ters from Ihe Post-Office, 1 suppose it will not have the smallest effect on the Democratic newspapers when I say ihat- this young man, the Postmaster’s son, en'irelv denied this etorv. Ho only charged them writ siealmg 860 worth of stamps. But as the village of Franklin consists of leas than a dozen hou ses, and as I have found jl hard to buy a dol lar's worth ol stamps at much larger places in this region, I must douhl ihe precise accu racy of ihese figures, and 1 told him so. Since breaking up this den of thieves, the vicinity has been quiet, except when the no ble army of 2,800, .on returning, burnt n large milt close by, on which the whole neighborhood depended fir menl nnd lumber. It is not far from here In Blnn'on’s Bridge, which the Grand Jury declined a nni-umee (you remember), because It give aid and comfort to Free-Smle men. 1 suppose that this mill was a nuisance fur the same reason. The ruins of the building were still smoking as I stood before them. The owner of ibis mill was a Pennsylvan ian named Straub. We saw his daughter, a noble looking girl, but rather unnecessarily saucy and spirited in her replies. I at firsi thought. Presently she said, with surprise, “ Why I thought you were Missourians, and i“ I was resolved that you should hear the “truth.” This was a piece o( genuine Kan sas pluck, as it was a lonely place, and we were three to one.

Mr Taylor, at whose house the election was to be held, is a Bu* chanan man ; but he will sometime learn that no such foolishness can defo.it the Right. The polls were opened in an outbuilding, cold and uncomforta. Me, and the returns show that the petty lyianlia thor oughly repudiated in hin stronghold. Freemen of Union, yon have done n»h\y. In a bad cau.«e men do not endure cold and discomfort as no* blyas you have done. Such is the material that pa* trioU arc made of. To me Breachl Tho coming struggle will le*l the integrity of the freemen of the North: it ii to be a fiery furnace, which will consume the patriotism of the few chick* cn-hcurlcd ones who labor not for (he great cud hut for present success ; but the (passes will come out of the trial with a better faith and with a purer pa triotism. Freemen, tins is not a struggle for transient su. premacy j it is a contest for the principle which un. derhes and su-iains the superstructure of our liber ties. Good men have no alternative but to give their energies for the triumph of this groat princi. pie regardless of results. Though victory seems al. ready to perch upon nur standard, no effort must be relaxed, no hand should be idle, no eye should be less watchful. “The battle is not to the strong alone, but to the vigilant, the m live, the brave.” Neither is the race to the swiff, but to the diligent. If wic love Freedom and would secure victory, wo must be vigilant, active, brave and diligent. This must be our bulwark of strength, our rock of hope We have routed (lie enemy in our midst! the cne. my is di-couraged and carl down; but remember that we arc not fighting an open, honors hie foe. Our enemies have cast trijt/cand honor nut of (he campaign. They refuse to fight the battle honora. hly.

Although, we have done well, ay, nobly, yet we can. do better. Wc can give 3000 majority for Freedom here in Ti* oga. Our forces were not out. The aggregate Re. publican vote in tins county cannot be less than 4000. Let every man constitute himself a commit tee of Vigilance for the coming two weeks, seeing lb it that his neighbor is at (ho polls and early in the day. Up, every man. Young mert, it is to you that the cause of Freedom turns and pleads. The reins of Government will soon be relinquished into your hands. The responsibilities already rest upon your shoulders. It remains to be seen whether you are worthy of the trust. If you do your whole duty the institutions of Freedom arc secure. Should you fail—should you prove 'recreant, the execrations of a betrayed people await you. Friends and co-wor,k ers, wo can have nothing to do with results except as instruments in the hands of the Supremo. We hove but lo do our duly and leave the result to One "who holdelh victory in the hollow of Ilia hand.” Freemen, this campaign will reveal who arc “gun. shine patriots** and “summer soldiers*’* The man who looks beyond present gain into that pregnant* future where the liberties of a great people mast be secured or lost, will be found now with his shoulder at the wheel, pushing for Freedom apd Fremont, We believe the great Northern heart beau 1 true to Freedom. The masses, with the facts before them would never err, where they are intelligent, It is only when they from the fuels by dc* signing men that they err. The issue is fairly made by the leading Buchanan paper in the Union: “Buchanan and Slavery, or Fremont and no more Slave territory!" Each may choose for himself; and lot no man, in the event of disaster, say—“l did not understand the issue.” The close vote on the Slate ticket should cncour. age every Republican, and nerve him for renewed action. The Buclianocrs have brought their entire available force into the Geld—they have dragged cv. ery lane and alley; and in Philadelphia they polled 10,000 illegal votes. This U not a suspicion merely but is boldly charged by the papers puplished in the city. JThe villains who thus pollute the ballot-box will be sought out, and if possible be brought to jus. lice. But let us look around as lie re—see how ma ny of our Fremont men staid away from the polls on Tuesday. Not a man should -bo Uft* on the 4th of" N-»»xmocr. Let every voter be got out. Suet) as have teams can do a good work for Free* dom on that day. Will they do it 7 Then let u« up, every man of us. The champions of slave.breoding have shown their whole strength. 1 Freemen, wo have only lo work faithfully and tri umph in November. Shall wedoit? In the election just passed the Stale is lost to the Republicans by a very emill vote —less than 2000 by the best figures wo cun get ot. On this narrow margin the slavcbrccding democracy claim the Sluto for Buchanan. We apprehend that this claim will bo scattered to the winds in November. In 1840 the Democrats carried the Slate in October by near* ly 5000 majority; but notwithstanding this, the Stale went for Harrison by a majority o( 13,000, In 1848 the State went Democratic in October by a majority of 2,630. Yet Gen. Taylor carried it over Caas in November by 13,000. Wo are beaten by a meager majority. Willi proper exertion we can overcome one-fourth of that majority here in Tioga in November. We can give 3000 majority against Wrong and outrage and it must be given. Wilmol’s District has done nobly indeed. Its masses ore intelligent and progressive, They hate oppression and wrong. They despise the third-rate pettifoggers and bank swindlers who have been detailed to bidding here* They will repudiate them anew in November. The lies they have sowed shall spring op thorns and choke their lives out. Wrong has iu triumphs, but they arc transient. If our enemies have triumphed for this once, it is not the first time that Wrong has triumphed over Right. We who labor for humanity must labor and wail. We know that Right will tri omph at the last. Those who aim to circumvent bad men must not hope fox all sunshine. The poet has it— “Him shall the scorn and wrath of men Furauo with deadly aim. And bate and malice, spile and lies Shall desecrate his name," The field of duly lies ever before. One and all, let us strike now. We envy not the bad man in his triumph hour. Upon his forehead are the furrove of evil passions. His face is a stranger to the sun shine of those generous emotions which are to help regenerate a wicked generation. Freemen, wo most labor for man regardless of denunciation. North eru'Pennsylvania must stand redeemed. Saturday evening ol last week will be remember ed by the respectable portion of this community »» a season of disgraceful excess, of drunkenness and riot. It will be remembered with pain by the order loving, as it should be with shame by the mistaken men who led off in the foray against tha good morals of this community. We were occupied and did not witness the revels of these exemplary eitixens in detail; but wo saw enough to satisfy us (hat no man who had any re aped either for himself, his family or the communi ty in which he lived, copid have led on tire revel The cause is said to have been the receipt of newt by the Buchanecrs that the State had gone pro-slave ry by a small majority.

This resulted in a wild scene of drunken, ness and confusion, in which many participated who disgraced (heir manhood and (heir professions pa Christians apd good citixens.

Tire Issue between the two parties is distinctly put by the Columbia South Carolinian; “The Abolition party at l(ie North is comparative, ly a small one but almost universally are the people Freesoilers. Practically, lot of the South con recog. nixe no distinction, if the institution of Slavery ought not to be extended into territory owned in' common by both sections, it may as well be abolished.’ l Men can How take their choice between Freedom and Slavery.

Peterson, publisher, 103 Ciiestnul st, Philadelphia. PriccBl,3s by mail, prepaid. Like all of Mrs. Hcnlz’s talcs, this collection is remarkable for its inherent beauties, both of plot and diction. The author deals delicately and well with the finer emotions. Her characters are not distinguished so much for masculine strength as for moral beauty. She excels in ilicroinca rather than in heroes, inasmuch as she seems to have a d e,s r and clearer insight into female, than into the mas culine character. The pre-eminent excellence of her writings lies in the pure moral sentiments they inculcate. No one can read her writings without soul profit. STILL LATER! BETTER AND BETTER!! VICTORIOUS AT LAST!!! Republicans! The latest official returns give us a large majority of the Congressional,.deleaaUon la *i>>. e«ate, as Well as small majorities in both bran* dies of the Legislature !

Resolved, That any politicians or parties who uphold or give countenance to the outra rngcs committed in Kansas are not entitled to the confidence of the American people, al though they may be clothed in the garb of Democracy, and profess the pure principles of Washington and Jefferson. Resolved, That we hereby enter our most solemn protest against the Federal tfrms be ing used to give aid and support to those laws which are a disgrace to humanity, and a deep stain upon our honor and good name. ******* Resolved, That we view Slavery ns a local and Stale institution, based entirely upon Ihe sovereignly of the several Stales, its exist ence being independent of the Federal Con, slilution. Resolved, That we hold there is no power delegated to the General Government in the Constitution either to create or abolish Sla very ; therefore, Congress cannot interfere with or abolish it in the respective States, nor can it legalize of sanction it in the Territo ties. That as it is a local and Stale institu tion, the slave resumes his natural condition of freedom the moment ha is taken by his master beyond the jurisdiction of the Stale that legalizes the right to hold him as prop erly. Resolved, That as the Constitution guar antees the right of property, and ns it is ad mitted even by Slavery Propagandists that a Stale sovereignty can either institute or abol ish Slavery, it is evident that property in man is not guaranteed by the Constitution, but is merely a privilege granted by the State sov ereigniy;, legalizing the right to hold man as property; and hence it follows that a State can nboli-h it without infringing the Constitu tional rights of properly. ~ Resolved, That the Ordinance of 1787, which prohibited Slavery from the territory ceded by Virginia, having two t«uCi->u by ih« nrst Congress of 1780, whiob was composed of men who framed the. Federal Constitution, and sanctioned by Washington, Jefferson, Madison and Monroe, its national character is clearly demonstrated ; and, inasmuch as we are treading in the footsteps of the immor tal Jefferson, the Ordinance of 'B7, from which untold blessings will continue to flow for generations yet unborn, it follows conclu sively that the objects and purposes of the Republican parly are not sectional, but na tional. Resolved, That we view (he Conslilulion as the anchor of .hope, seeming ihe harmony of the sister-hood of Stales, and the palladi um of the nation's liberty ; and therefore it should be upheld and guarded with a sleep less vigilance against the incendiary attacks of disuniQiiist# or secessionists either North ot Soinh. An intelligent nnd observing friend, who has spent some time recently in travelins through the Western Stales, infirms us that we 1 have failed to lake ii.t ) account one great properly interest which has been silently but powerfully working there against the Repub beans. It is that of the land speculators. The whole West is sweltering in land specu lation. Merchants, doctors, lawyers, form ers, office-holders—almost every body, in fact, who has either property or credit in In diana, Illinois and other Western Free Slates, has his hands full of unsettled lands, bought (mainly with land warrants) at 81 to-82 per acre, nnd held in market for (arming purposes at 810 to 830 or in village lots at 8100 to 81,000.
