FROM KANSAS. From The Lawrence Herald of Freedom, Sept. 28. Invaders are Coming* We learn that small parties are coming into the Territory on all the public highways from Missouri, and are passing to the'western part of Kansas. On Thursday last some gen tleman came down from Tecumseh. They report meeting some ten covered ■ wagons on the route, all filled with men, and all going west and none of tnem loaded with other than bottles of bad whisky, a small quantity of provisions and camp fixtures. ' Parlies were coming for a week or ten days before the election on the 30th of March, 1655, and their appearance at this lime again looks ominous.- If they have coma here to interfere in our franchises, come from where they may, we sincerely hope they will never be allowed to return to their homes alive. They deserve death as much as would a wolf who should intrude upon a poultry yard in the night and steal away the fowls. There is no crime so base, and none which deserves such severe penalties, as robbing a people of the right of self-government. Will tub Propagandists Conquer!— Gen. McLean was in Lawrence yesterday. He talked confidently of the success of the Pro-Slavery party at the October election; He was asked if an attempt would be made to collect the tax ? He said that Gov. Walker had no authority whatever to say that aJtax should not be collected. That the onlymaan authorized to interpret that law was Attorney- General Weir, whose opinion would be final, aud would be published in a few days. Mr. Weir, the Attorney-General, is one of the most ultra propagandists in Kansas. He will decide, of course, that the payment of a tax is an essential qualification for the right of .suffrage, Gen. McLean said that a lax would be collected. He said : “We have been fighting two years to make you acknowl edge our laws, and now that you have done it, by going into the election, by -G—d we’ll put ihem to yon. If you can win in Octo ber under them, you will deserve to succeed ; hut I lell you it will be a difficult job. We expeci to sweep the board,” or words to that effect. Turning to a gentleman who had opposed the participation in the October election, he said : ‘ You’ll be on the top of the heap after the election. You’ll have a rightto crow. Your position will be justified.” The gentleman told him, if he had his way, there would be no fear of the Free-State men losing the election. Hfe'would hang every man who opposed a fair election. The General left. Jackobius. From The Lawrence Republican, Sept. 26. COL, TITUS MAKES KNOWN TUEIR PLANS, A friend of ours just returned from St. Louis, informs us that on his trip down the river he was much of the time in company with the noted Col. Tims, and reports him very jubilant over their prospects of success in the October election. Titus, says “he knows the Pro-Slavery parly will succeed,” and adds, “Why shouldn’t we rejoice over ilt We have got the thing all fixed, and success is certain. The Constitutional Con vention will adjourn" (this was before the adjournment) “until alter the election. It will then meet and pass a Pro-Slavery Con stitution, submit it under restrictions that the mass of Free-Stale men will not comply with, and we have the assurance of our friends in Congress lhal we shall be admitted undent.” When asked how they expected to carry the election, with the present preponderance of Free-State Voters, he said : “All the In dians, who were wiih them, would vote ; and, beside, he knew of more than a thousand Pro-Slavery man in Missouri who hadjclaims in the Shawnee Reserve, who would be on the ground, and Pro-Slavery judges would receive their votes. The blue lodges would send hundreds; yes, thousands, into the Ter lilory—not in an army, but quietly, who would claim a residence, and would in like manner, vote. They had been organizing for this purpose since last Spring.” -A Slave Whipped to Death. —We have received information ihai a slave was chained wiih a long chain on the 25ih ull., in Pulaski counly, Ky., by a Mr. S'igal his owner, and whipped every morning daily, for six days, from fifty lo one hundred stripes. Onthe morning afjlhe seventh (fay he approached (o complete ihe week’s torture, but foiled to enjoy that day’s whipping. He found the poor tortured mortal dead. The slave had asked permission of his - master to go to see his wife on Saturday night, which request was denied him, but notwithstanding, the black man, after bis work was done, and all were in bed, went to see his wife but returned before daylight lo make the Gres and lo feed. ( He was put into a box and buried ; bu the coroner hearing of the outrage, had the body dug up and examined by three physi cians who pronounced “death by whipping.” OlHcers are in search of the inhuman mur derer, but we presume nothing will be done to him if found. Let ihe reader imagine that a negro has whipped a white man to death for going to see his wife at the end of hivweek’s work, and that 100, at night when all were asleep, and see what will be bis feelings. White then are put to death for murder, black ones for true affection. O Slavery ! The devif has got you. —Newport {Ky ) News. Tub Prospect.- Judge Wilmol is address ing the citizens of the different counties in the Stale on the political issues of the day. Wherever he speaks in public, thousands of freedom-loving citizens, without distinction of parly, crowd to hear him. No candidate has ever spoken to the people with belter effect. The prospect for his election to the Gubernatorial chair is highly flattering to those who desire to witness the elevation of a high minded and honorable man. If the eastern counties do nearly as well ns usual ha will most assuredly be elected by a large majority. The West and North are compe ting with each other which shall give him the largest vole. —Snyder Tribune, Two companies of artillery have arrived at New Orleans, on their way to Kansas.

LET US HAVE A LONG PULL, A STRONG PULL, A TRUE PULL AND A PULL ALTOGETHER, FOE WILMOT! MILLVIBD, rate, LEWIS! FOR WILLISTON, BENSON, DONALDSON, BAILEY. TAYLOR, JAMES AND DOUGLAS! All and every one good and true Republicans ! Staunch and true men, all. All soldiers In the great Republican army I . Let us vote the entire ticket, from Wilmol to Dou glas 1 Is this a time to indulge in petty squabbles about men ? Are wc not fighting for PZiINCIPLES 7 Let us so to the poll* with this single intent—to “STRIKE DOWN THE ALLIES 1” Every man on the pro-slavery ticket is an ALLY OF SLAVERY I Down with them! Tlirice Armed. “Thrice armed is he who hath bis quarrel just!” Every Republican is thrice armed. While he lifts arm and voice for wronged humanity be has his quarrel just. • Friends, this is no petty strife for the supremacy of individuals; it is no selfish war waged for the emoluments of office ; it is a struggle to regain our caste among the free States of the North. We la bor for a name and fame commensurate with our greatness and position as a Slate. Whether that good name and fame shall be attained, is for you to decide—your votes and voices and yours only. No special dispensation of Providence will supercede Hts decree promulgated when this earth took its po sition among its sister earths in space; and that de cree is, that Man shall deserve every good thing be prays for. To deserve anything is to labor for it not one, two, or three short years, merely, but until it shall be accomplished—won. Now, the nation has been Eighty Years in back sh’dihg from its first estate. Hoes any man presume (hat the labor of the past few ’years U sufficient to reclaim it ? The presumption is folly in the ex treme, if it exists. Heaven’s great law of Compen sation cannot be suspended, nor will its penalties be removed. As (his nation Jus sinned, so must it suffer, and this is only Justice. The way is as plain as sunlight. As Republican** we have but to keep on protesting until wrong shall be driven out of the land. Wc have but to keep on protesting until Pennsylvania shall speak as she did thirty-seven years ago—the language of universal Freedom, Such is the task beiore,us. We have to teach this great Commonwealth its infant paces— the belter principles which guided its unpractised and iiocorrupled youth. In Dwio Wilmot we have the representative of Pennsylvania before she fell into the hands of dem agogues. He speaks the language she spoke so no bly in 1820. His tones accord sweetly with those that rung out in her legislative balls in lhal event ful year. The question is, shall we labor to place him in the highest place in the Commonwealth, as the champion of universal Freedom and the repre sentative of Pennsylvania in her better by criminal inaction, suffer the election of his oppo nent, who is the champion of the Black Power and the representative of a sentiment which aims to sub vert the few unquestioned liberties still remaining to ua. The question is plain enough. How will you answer it? II There Be Any Inclined to underrate the importance of the coming election, or to rank it below any that has taken place since the establishment of the Government, to such we say, shake off the delusion, for a delu. slon it assuredly is and of the most dangerous ten dency. The voice of Pennsylvania will be listened to throughout the entire Union. The Slave’Power awaits the decision of the freemen of (he Keystone State with greater anxiety than last year. It de sires to know if the disaster of 1856 chilled (he hopes and hearts and palsied the energies of those who voted for Freedom and Fremont Let the Re publicans of the Wilmot District respond in a thun der loncd NO ! We have no time lo lose in specu lations as to what our friends in other districts will do. Wc arc responsible for our actions, they for their t: u Act well your part; there all the honor lies. 1 * Fold your Tickets. It >• a very important thing that the Committees of Vigilance see that the tickets are cut and folded before the day of election. This will save a great deal of trouble and confusion at a time when every /republican needs to be active. Three men will cut. fold and lie up in full sett,. „n t h e rickets for any electton district in the county, u is a short job and should be attended to without delay. BEWARE OF SPURIOUS TICKETS--See that you get your tickets at the proper place and of a reliable person. Spurious tickets may be circula. ted by out opponents on the day of election such a thing is probable: but a reference to the ticket as it stands at the head of tbis paper will detect the fraud. Be vigilant and active. Organize! Friends, you_can do a good work by taking the the last year poll list of your district and marking each Republican’s name as be voles. A careful e*. amination of this list just before noon, will show what neighbrMoods need attention. A few teams on the ground with men in readiness to bring in de linquents. Let every friend ol freedom be got in. THE TIOGA COUNTY AGITATOE. Tote Earlf ?hr ~*rery mao should make it a point to - polls by 10 o'clock morning’. It costs do more to go early to the polls than it does to pal it off until late in the afternoon.' Go early and urge your neighbor to go with .you. Those who have teams can do a noble work in helping such as have none. The Free Stale men of .Sanaa* have consented lo vote in the Territorial election to bo held on the 13lli of October. We regret that they should have receded from their'first position, an inch.' That po sition, al ibis distance, seemed the correct one and the only one consistent' with the avowed principles of the parly. We cannot underetand how our friends in that Territory are to go into the election without acknowledging the validity of those infamous laws- True, Gov. Walker has said that they may vote without paying taxes levied by Ihcbogus Territorial authorities; but what has £ov. Walker to do with the laws of Kansas, the volidity of wh'cb be ac* knowledges, except lo see that they aro enforced ? Nothing. The Allorney-General of Kansas has de cided that none but taxpayers shall be admitted to vole, and Judge Cato backs him. Now, in the name of common sense, on whal do our friends re ly for a fair, election? They have fair and full war ning of the conditions under which they are to vote, if they vole at all; and those conditions involve the recognition ot the validity of the acts of the bogus Legislaurc lo Uic fullest. Wc do not agree with our colemporarica that the Oligarchs have set a trap for the Free Stale men of that Territory. The trap has not at alt the charac ter of a’trap. Its jaws are thrust fully and fairly in the face of every Free State man. No conceal ment is attempted. The conditions are—‘-You must acknowledge the validity of the Territorial laws !” Paying taxes, or voting under those laws, either of these is such an acknowledgment. Where then is the trap? That Kansas is doomed to Slavery,and by the de liberate action of the General Government, we make no question. But the deed will be dune with no flourish of trumpets. Kansas may present her seli at the door of the Union with a Constitution silent upon the subject of Slavery. This would be equivalent to admitting' her with a slave Constitu. lion; for Mr. Buchanan said in his letter to Prof. Siliiman and others, that Slavery now exists in tl»t Territory under the Constitution of the United States, If Slavery now exists in Kansas, then il may continue lo exist there until ejected by special enactment. This is eo plain that no candid man will deny its truth. Friends, we strike next Tuesday not only for our own Stale, but for Kansas. Forward! Thb Fair. —A drizzling rain set in early on the first day of the Fair and continued during the three days. This rendered it exceedingly unpleasant to all, and doubtless kept hundreds at home who had otherwise been on the ground. As it was, the at tendance wps good and the display of articles ex cellent. The Stock department was well filled. Since the Fair so well weathered the adverse cir cumstances against which il labored tills year, we trust it will henceforth be considered a permanent institution. It has done the workingmen oi Tioga a great'deal of good already, short as its existence has been; and it proposes to a great deal more for the agricultural interests of the county in future. Tlicre is a far more progressive spirit evinced in the farming operations of Ibis county than there was three years ago. That the annual conferences of farmers instituted four years since, and eo happily continued down lo the preeent/are to have great credit for this increased interest, we certainly be lieve. Vie did not have the pleasure of bearing the An. nual Address by Dr. Thompson, but bear it spoken ol in terms of high praise on all hands. We aro obliged to defer a more extended notice of these matters, together with the List of Premiums awar ded, until next week. Wells nemo Academy. —This Institution entered upon its Kail Term Thursday, 241 h ultimo, under the direction of Mr. Beoadiiead, late a giaduate of Genessee College. Mr. Broadlicad comes highly recommended and, we understand, gives good satis faction. He is certainly a gentleman of culture and will doubtless sustain the higfi reputation of the School. There is no heller location in Northern Pennsylvania for a good School than this. We have the purest of mountain air, and good boarding-pla ces; and beside, we have good society exceeding that not so good. To such as desire to afford their children the opportunity of getting a good educa tion comparatively apart from the worst influences, we can commend tiie Wellsboro Academy to tho fullest extent, as combining more of these advanla ges with fewer disadvantages than any School be side within our acquaintance. It is hoped that Mr. Broadlicad will receive a generous patronage. We had the pleasure of meeting a sturdy dclcga. tion of the Gaines Republicans Monday evening, at the House of H. C. Vermilyea. They were ihor. oughly awake to the importance of the approaching election, and our friends in other sections may rest assureo that the Republicans of Gaines will do their whole duty next Tuesday. We had not scon so many *> live men” together for a year. We may remark in passing, that Mr. Vermilyea keeps one of the best hotels in the county. We can saj that neither before nor after the Meeting, nor at any time during our stay, did we see a drunken man, or a noisy man. All was quiet and decorous. Add to this the fact Mr. V. is a kind, obliging and attentive londlordjand his lady one of the best of cooks, as her well ordered table abundantly test!- fies. and we hove described one of the pleasantest hotel homes whose hospitalities we have ever shared. We are forced to defer many local items until our neit number. An unexpected absence from town, and a world of business pertaining to the approach ing election, have doubled our responsibilities and labors for the past ten days. There has been a criminal neglect of duty by all of us, and the few remaining days should be devoted to the cause, at any and all sacrifices. Action— prompt, immediate and unremitting, from this hour up to Tuesday eve ning next, is the stern duly of every Republican who desires to see Tioga roll op 3500 for Wilmnt. Jnst that amount of labor will win that majority. We shall do our duty. /' A horse.thicf passed through this village Sunday evening, creating a slight spasm of excitement. He is described as being a small-sized man, wears a light-colored hat—other clothes not described. The horse is a handsome, snugly built gray. When last seen he was at Manchester Mills, in search of Little Pjno Creek. His operations on Pine Creek, as described to us, were of the most verdant kind. Yet be has eluded his pursuers up to present writing. Mr. Grow was reported ill at Harrisburg on Mon day last. It is probable that he will fill his appoint ments m this county, however, since no notice to the contrary has been transmitted us. P. S, We have just received a despatch from Mr. Grow stating that be will fill his appointments 4 n this county as per advertisement. ExPLANiTottT.—[Since Mr. WillUton’a appoint menta in various parte of the county were published that gentleman baa been called to Harrisburg to at tend an extra session of the Legislature. This will excuse his non-appearance in the western townships. Arrangements have been made to secure speakers in his stead. be at the We have received a copy of the Daily Stunner Gazette, published by Cone, Brothers. Sumner, Kan. sas. It is a staunch Free Stale paper and deserves to succeed. That it may succeed politically and pqj cunianly, is our earnest wish. CoiislUutioual Aiueudmcuts. The proposed Amendments- to the Consti tution of Pennsylvania, are again published in the newspapers of the several counties.— They are word for word the same that were published last year ; and having been agreed to by two successive Legislatures, the next step toward their adoption - will be their sub mission to a vote of the people at the October election. The amendments are four in num ber, and the vote will be taken for or against eachjane separately. They are all of suffi cient importance to demand the serious atten tion of every citizen, and we think their ex pediency and propriety are so apparent, that the peop'e, without distinction of parly, will be ready to accept them. The First Amendment relates to the public debt, and proposes the following salutary pro visions ; I. Thai the Slate debt shall never exceed 8730,000, except in case of war, insurrec'lon, or for the purpose of redeeming the present debt. 11. A Sinking Fund shall be provided suffi cient to pay the interest on the existing State debt, and 10 reduce the principal $250,000 a year. 111, The credit ol the Commonwealth shall not in any manner be pledged or loaned, or the Commonwealth become a stockholder in any corporation. IV. The Commonwealth assume the debt of any county, city, borough -nr township, or uny corporation, unless,the same was contracted by the Slate in time of war. vTfc,6 county, city, or other municipal corporation, sltall become a stockholder in, or loan its credit to any company or corpora tion whatever. The Second Amendment provides against the needless division of counties by prohibit ing the erection of any new county contain ing less than 400 square miles, and requiring the expressed assent ol the voters of the coun ty, to authorize any division of such county which shall cut off one-tenth of its popula tion. Ths Third Amendment relates principally to. Philadelphia, and proposes to amend the first Article of the Constitution, by striking j from us several sections the words which recognize the separate municipal existence of the old city of Philadelphia. This amendment also proposes some chang es in the mode of apportioning, of which is one that it will allow ihe City of Philadelphia, (and any other city with taxable population sufficient fur two Representatives) to be divi ded into single Representative Districts, The Fourth Amendment proposes a new section to the Constitution, in which the power of the Legislature lo alter, revoke of repeal any charier of incorporation, ( which of course it possesses, by virtue of sovereignty, ahhough some affect to dispute it) is expressly declared. This is. a mere outline of the proposed amendments, but sufficient, we trust to show their importance, and to induce our readers to examine them carefully, so that they may be prepared to vole upon them wih an inlel ligem understanding of their nature and hear ing upon our present fundamental law.— Reading Gazette. Freedom in Kama>. The prospect of establishing Freedom in Kansas has rapidly declined within the last month. The slave-holders acknowledge they are in a small minority. But the Constitu tion will not be submitted to a vote of the people. The Convention is Pro-Slavery and if submitted to the registered voters, not more than one in five will be entitled to volet Such is “Squaller Sovereignly”—a fraud —a cheat upon the people—a miserable cloak to cover the designs of lawless men— of hold conspiralorj/such as Stringfellow, Aichinson and ffiefr conspirators. . What ihen iytq be done? Elect Jodgb'Wilmot Governor of Penn sylvania, and Kansas is Free! The voice of Pennsylvania is po'ential at Washington. She has made all the Presidents—she has de cided the fate of of the nation on more than one occasion ; and at this time her voice would settle the great question, in a way whi h men of all parties, in this Slate, profess to desire—and KANSAS WILL BE FHEE! Democrats of Pennsylvania, do you doubt this 1 VVe answer not a man of you ! You know that the Freedom of Kansas is in your hands. You can settle it atTho ballot box ! Party lenders lell you (hat Kansas is Free already. believe it 1 You know well it.depends upon various contingencies. It depends upon submitting the Smie Consti tution to all the the voters of, Kansas. It is true that Walker has promised that the Con stitution shall be submitted to a vole of iho People ; but may ho not change his mind t Has be not changed ! You know the whole South is against such a vole, and you also know that Walker has no power lo carry oui his promise, and lo compel a vote to be taken. But admitting that the. Constitution were sub milled lo the People, you know that four-fifths have not been registered, and therefore they cannot vote. It is all a mockery. Democrats —people of Pennsylvania—(he power is in your hands. You can breathe life and freedom into Kansas. Upon you is the responsibility. Trust not to Walker. Trust not to the Ruffians of Missouri—nor lo the South ; but rely on your own valiant arm —your own voies; overthrow the Parly that has overthrown Freedom, and Kansas is Free. What do the friends of Packer propose lo accomplish by his election ? Does any man pretend that he would dareto interpose his voice against any measure that is or may be proposed lo subjugate Freedom in Kansas I Then vote for bis opponent, and lei your voice be heard in favor of Freedom !— Vil. lage Record, epmmun^catitmff.

Progress or the Campaign.— The meet* ings of the friends of the Union Stale Ticket, called by the Slate Committee, and addressed by the Hon. David Wilmot, have so far everywhere been well attended, as we learn from our exchanges, published .at those pla ces. The Washington Reporter, , in giving an account of the meeting at that place, savs “the enthusiasm of ihe people \yas equal to anything in the campaign of lastjfall.” In Centre county, Judge Wilmot was greeted with one of the audiences ever assembled in that county '/or political purposes, and the utmost enthusiasm was manifested. i The North and West will poll a glorious vote for our candidate. The Erie Constitu tion claims 3,000 majority for'Wilmot and the rest of the Stale ticket in that county. Packer, though he has refused to travel with Wilmot, is “bobbing aroimrt” on his own hook, endeavoring to set things straight. He was at Harrisburg a day or jtwo ago, at tending to the wires in that quarter. The chances for Wilmol’s success are con sidered very fair. In all but Jhp eastern and extreme southern counties he will poll a vety heavy vote, and if he does not fall 100 far behind in the East, he is bclund lo win. There is everything in present [ appearances lo encourage our friends. Let them go lo work with a will, resolved lo do their whole duty and bring out the full opposition vote, and Judge Wilmot will be our next Governor beyond a peradventure. — Lebanon Courier. ■ The Difference—“ The [Poor Man’s Friend. —We observe going the rounds, a very loud “splurge” made uy; Gen. Packer in the Senate, proving himself—as most, office hufyers do—a tke-3ien-doi;s, “friend of Ihe poor man.” (Genera fly, Ihey who make the greatest professions, practice least.) We suppose Gen. P. is a clergyman, like most of our prominent men, and has a hu man, sympathetic heart, like dll of us. But one thing is certain—he is immensely rich, by successful speculations from the Public Works—in other words, the -profts of the day's labor of “poor men," paid bp the State have made him as wealthy as any man need be ! Judge Wilmol, on the contrary, makes no such loud pretences of superior love Cor Ihe poor man, but let us judge him by his i corks. He is himself m very moderate circtimslan ces, and probably always will be, —for he is benevolent and unostentatious— the lost dollar, whenever pbyjor kindly'.feel. ingspfom.pt. This is well r known home, as the vote pill tell, i His acts speak louder than words. His whole political ca reer has evinced a design of really elevating the condition of laborers!—^[preserving our wide western prairies'l'rom Ihe curse of un requited toil, at.d of keeping it open for ilm free white man’s sons and daughters—so that labor shall be honorable lo all. Which is really “the poqr man’s friend.” —Lancaster Ex. j Voy-wge of a Y acht op Twenty-Three Tons frosi New York to Liverpool.— The Liverpool Post, in its issue of July 29, says: “The arrival at this; port, yesterday, of the yacht Charter Oak, from New York, furnishes a striking protjp.of what perse verance can accomplish, and shows to us English the sort of stuff (Air transatlantic cousins ore made of. The Charier Oikis a little vessel 43 feel long, 13|feel wide, o feet 3 inches deep, and measures 23 tons. She was built and rigged by her captain and owner, Mr, Webb, ra Connecticut, and by him and one man brought safely across the stormy Atlantic, in ihiny-loven days. She started with Ihe captain and two men, but one of them was unfortunately lost overboard the first day. To most men this would have been enough to frighten them off their per ilous enterprise, but our two undaunted navi, gators (one of whom had hever been at sea before) were not to be frightened. Without a chronometer, (for no one would trust one in so frail a conveyance, and-thc captain was 100 poor lo buy one;) without a chart of the coast they were steering for, these two men pursued (heir, dangerous wily through several storms, and reached Liverpool in ihe time mentioned.” f It is really amusing tnj hear democrats pitching into “Banks.” TJhe cry o' - “down with ihe banks” is abou: being raised in cer tain quarters, and we woujd not be surprised if they would even use this cry now lo help their sinking cause in Pennsylvania, But it is 100 late to do them any, gbod,,f r everybody knows that at least six but of every seven Banks in Pennsylvania were created by ihe Democratic party. I Bui, be this as it may, it is not the banks (hat create these awful limes.- It is that ru inous democratic slave policy which causes our imports lo exceed onr| exports sixty mil lions annually. This drains the country of ihe hard coin. This creates bankruptcy to such an extent as to derange our whole bank ing system. As well might a merchant blame 1 his bookkeeper for losses;on bad customers, as to blame banks for Ihe ruinous policy of the slave democracy. —Mautdi Chunk Ga zette. { Wien Forney, recently editor of the Bellefonte Democratic paper, and who went to Bradford county jvjtb a paper to “fight Wilmot,” several years'ago, comes out in the Centre Democrat. of 24;b ull., in oppo sition lo Packer and the present Democracy. —Lewisburg Chronicle, The'Georgia Platform publishes a letter from Kansas, which eulogizes Gov. Walker, and expresses confidence that Kansas will y e ; become a slave State. We quote a para, graph: “We cannot see the propriety of Southern men taking such grave exceptions to any. thing Governor Walker has said in Kansas, The pro slavery democrats of Kansas Terri* lory sustain him, and on the other hand, all the Black Republicans and Free Soil papers denounce him, and say that he is no better than a Border Ruffian. Governor Walker ia regarded by all good men in Kansas Territo. ry as being a wise, just and impartial Execu tive ; and 1 think that it would be best for outsiders to lay low and keep still until we complain. With regard lojhe delegates that are elected to form a StatetConsiitution, they will convene at the Capitol on the first Mon. day in September next; a large majority of these men are pro-slavery, and there is no doubt but that they will form a Constitution with a clause recognizing African slave labor. I think it very uncertain whether orTnotlr'- will be submitted to the ratification of'-rHi' people after it is formed, from the fact that the people voted at the time of electing the candidates ; they all declared themselves in favor of or against African Slavery. * *.* The troops are still in Law. rehce, and, I think, will remain there for the purpose of enforcing the laws in collecting the revenue. They say they will fight the troops before they will pay the taxes, tam of the opinion we will have a collision when the tax-gatherer starts out ; and, if so, theta is no telling where it will slop.’’ , Judge W.ilraoi is gaining friends daily, and we have assurances from Philadelphia that the straight out Fizzlehorsi ticket will not gel as large a vote as his friends anticipated. If the inland counties only poll a fair Re publican vole, our whtjle Stale ticket may be elected. j How strange it is that honest men wilt sacrifice their dearest rijghts, and thtow away votes on a candidate who has. not a shadow of a chance of election, antj/hy so doing, serve the very worse enemy they have in the State or country. On a fair run'Wilmot will beat Packer; but the Straightout Fillmore party, in pur suit of an impracticable idea, will not make choice between them. Still, if every Re publican will only vote, we can defeat the pro-slavery ticket even in this county. The Mulatto party have had the General Government in their hands until, by locking up gold in their sub treasury, and permitting foreign coal arid iron to come here to drive ours out of market, all the laboring men ate thrown out of employment, and cannot hon estly vote their ticket any longer.—Wifte*. barre Times. -V-A-B-B-I-E-D In Charleston, Sept. 24, by Rev.
