The law and common sense laugh at such an idea, no less it be that the culprit be an idiot, or a child not yet arrived at the years of mor ' al understanding. Neither was the casa with Couk.

Acting Vice President Atchism resigned his seat in the I'. S.

As soon as the Act parsed, pre;ii numbers of Missourians crossed over into Kansas and took forcible and tibial p'jsats&ton vf Indians and other rich lands. A meeting at Westport, Missouri, in July, Rtfotvtd lo expel and keep otilof Kansas trrry Ahotitionht (as they called all men from the Free States.) Grin August, the first Free State men reached the Territory, and founded the town of Lawrence. On the Gth Oct. an armed band marched from Westport to (wipe out Lawrence," but, ihe Free State men being prepared for them, they retired for rcmforcemenis. The Missouri river was blockaded acainst Free State men, who were searched ou the steamboats, disarmed, and sent hack.

The first Territorial Klection, also, was so! grossly fraudulent that fiov. Iteeder rcfued ! to sanction it. An alleged Legislature pro ceeded, however, and passed the most despot 1 ic and abominable code of laws ever formed in a civilized land stones ot brutal lerociiy trom which the wildest savages might have shrunk with horror.' From this time forth, old Joiis Brows appeals conspicuously upon the stage of ac tion in Kansas a harbinger uf death and de struction to the Border II u Ilia u crew. No longer a quiet settler, acting on the defensive, he retaliated "carried ihe war into Africa" and no man was more vigilant r successful in saving Kansas for Freedom. Thai he was held to be somewhat deranged even then is evident from the testimony of the tunes. He I was newer taken into the Free Siale Councils j was regarded as ofien wrong and yet he i was everywhere that an enemy was to be met, or a slave to be rescued, until the Republicans triumphed, and the U-t Border Rut. an w !f was driven bark, howling, to his den. If with his brave Kdward and his unfortunate Frederick most brutally slain, and his fa- j vonte namesake a maniac if with three nons j there sacrificed, and burned homes, and prop erty taken revenge overmastered bis better nature, it is still most infamously false that ; Ae opened the: bloody lull" If he retaliated if bin reason, stung to madness, swung from its moorings Heaven knows he had sullicit ni provocations! Nearly two tears of Border j I KulTian sway, "in point of time," intervened before the Free State men if it was them struck back the first fatal blow at Possauato- I mie, and gave them a taste of their own mode j , of warfare.

Impressive Scene. In Leghorn, Ita ly, oa the 7th of October, a remarkable incident took place. For the first time, the Jews of that city offered up a prayer for a Christian Prince, and invoked the blessing of Heaven upon Victor Emanuel, King of Sardinia.

Here, again, rank Treason is threatened, but you will not find a Locofoco pper, North or South, who will dare to rebuke it ! Novel Advertisement. The most rcmarkablo among the many remarkable advertisements which daily fall under onr notice, in scores of exchanges from every section of the couutry, is the one given below : "A PEW is For Sale in the meeting bouse of the First Parish in Amherst. The man that owns the pew, owns the right of a spaco just as long as the pew is, from the bottom of the meeting house to the top or roof, and be may go as much higher as be can get. If a man will buy my pew and sit in it on Sundays, and repent and be a good man, ho will go to heaven if God lets him go. Let a man start from the right place, let him go right, keep right, and do right, and be will goto hea ven at last, and my pew is as good a place to start from a3 any pew in the meeUDg bouse" "It was not your advice that finally de termined me to vote your ticket, nor wa it your eloquent appeals from tbc stump : IT WAS THE- MURDER OF 1U()IER1CK. 1" So said tbo Hon. Thomas Ewing of Ohio, recently, as be cast, for the first time, a Republican vote. Mr. Ewing is not the only man, who bad been deluded with sham "popular sovreignty," whose eyes were opened by liroderick's murder, llroderick was honest in bis opposition to slavery, and because he was thus honest, he was killed, and Douglas rejoiced at his fall. S.n E.M. A courtezan called "blue eyed Mary," was buried in St. Louis, last week, only tba driver of the hearse and a negro sexton accompanying the body to the grave. Five years ago, she was the respected and lovely daughter of a wealthy merchant of that city, but went astray.

T.'n n is no lilnrly fur ichite men where slttv ry exists. Yet this is the in stitution the Locofocos want to extend. They say the price uf a deuial cf this privilege, will be a dissolution of the Union. There may be some who will not think the price too high. How to Live Lo.ng. A venerabla minister, who bad preached some sixty scveo years in the same place, being asked what was the secret of long life, replied : "Kise tarly, live temperately, work baid, and keep cheerful." Another person, who lived to the great age of one hundred years, said, in reply to the inquiry, "How he lived so long?" "I have always been kind and obliging, have never quarreled with any one, have eaten and drank only to satisfy hunger and thirst, and bave nev er been idle." Bkoderick vs. Pour.LAS.
