Affairs'in Kansas.
ST. Lotus, Feb. 16.—The Leavenworth
Herald says that Robinson, Lane and Brown,
of Lawrence, are doing everything possible
to bring- on the very civil war they affect to
deplore, - and that many Free State men refuse
to follow them into rebellion against the Fed
eral authority and territorial laws.
The Lawrence Herald of freedom says that
Robinson-and Lane have adopted precautiona
ry measures by an organized regiment. The
forts are being guarded day and night, and
munitions of - war arc co!lected, and are in
readiness for - instant service. An attack is
also expected.',':
The. Topeka Herald appeals to its friends
north'and east to hold themselves ready to
march to the rescue at a moment's notice, as
the bloW may be struck at any time. The
struggle will be in earnest, but the people of
Kansas will stand upon their rights and die
before a surrender.
The President's special message on Kan
sas, it appears, reached Leavenworth, but
not Lawrence.
NEW YORE, Feb. 16.—The Herald's Wash
ingtop correspondent telegraphs that letters
have been received by Gov.-Shannon, direct
from Kansas, which state that_the Free State
men are making extensive preparations for a
desperate fight. Munitinns of war and men
are constantly arriving from the free States,
and he anticipates a civil war.
Letters also say that they are fortifying at
every point. Large sums of money have
been contributed within the last few days by
Southern men, to raise and equip companies
in the South to send to Kansas.
Practical Absorption
The New York Tribune classifies the vote
for Speaker, and adds : " The only know
nothing, acknowledged as such, who voted
for Banks, was Mr.. Edie, of Pennsylvania."
It has heretofore been understood that of the
one hundred and three votes for Mr. Banks,
about eighty were elected as know-nothings
as well as republicans. When the elections
took place which sent them to Congress, their
triumphs were claimed, and in many instan
ces exulted over by southern know-nothings,
as triumphs .of their order. The question
now comes up: What has become of the
strong know-nothing phalanx sent from the
free States to Congress ? Tte philosophy of
Speaker Banks furnishes the answer. The
stronger race has absorbed the weaker—aboli
tion bas swallowed up know-nothingism,
leaving a solitary monument of its existence.
The New York Herald, which has acted as a
watchful nurse of know-nothingisrn, gives
pretty strong intimation that the half-dozen
northern national know-nothings are in a fair
way to disappear by the same process of ab
sorption. The following extracts from that
journal are significant
"THE NORTHERN NATIONAL KNOW-NOTH
INGS ON THE SP.EAKERSHIP.—A MOST LAMEN
TABLE COLLAPSE.—For nine weeks we had
labored under the idea that the Fuller party
of Congress, northern and southern members,
were national men—all of them sound na
tional men, this was a mistake. We bad sup
posed, from the first week in December to
the first week in February, that these Fuller
men were so rigidly opposed to Mr. Banks,
upon principle, that they would accept any
reasonable compromise from the democrats,
in order to defeat the election of the candidate
of Seward, Giddings, Weed, and Greeley ; but
this was a delusion. The nationality of
these Fuller men was limited to Fuller and
to the North. They lacked the moral cour
age to cross, at a venture, over Mason and
Dixon's line, and as far down as South •Caro
luta, with their boasted nationality. Theirs
is the responsibility for keeping the House
disorganized for nine weeks, and for the elec
tion of Banks at last, with the alternative of
his defeat in their hands.
* •
"And what is the result to the American
party ? It is a definite congressional division
of it into two hostile sectional factions. Not
a solitary northern know-nothing voted for
Aiken—not one. Thus the vote which elect
ed the Speaker discloses to the 'South Ameri
cans,' so -called, the lamentable truth that,
in Congress at least, their nationality as a
party is limited to the south side of Mason
& Dixon's line and the Ohio river ; that their
northern brethren, even of a national type,
incline to fraternize rather with Giddings, of
Ohio, than with the Marshalls, of Kentucky.
"The question which next recurs is, How
is this condition of things to be mended at
the Philadelphia national councils of the 18th
and 22d of February? The work there to be
done is the practical reorganization of the
American party throughout the Union, or its
fotrnal dissolution among the sectional and
local factions and loose materials of the coun
try. The result of the late struggle at Wash
ington admonishes us to prepare for the lat
ter alternative. They may, perhaps; do bet
ter. They cannot do worse. •We shall see.,'
Report of the Superintendent of Com-
mon Schools
The annual report of lion. A. G. Curtin,
Superintendent of Common Schools, has just
been made to the Legislature. It is accom
panied with elaborate reports from the County
Superintendents, and a number of valuable
tables showing the precise condition of the
Schools 'in every county in the Common
wealth, and forming a volume of 350 pages.
It appears from -the tabular statements - that,
during the year, the whole number of school
districts was 1632, of schools, 10,469; num
ber of schools yet required, 650 ; average
number of months taught, 51. ; number of
male teachers ; 8003 ; number of female teach
ers, 4140; average salaries of male teachers
pc: month, $22 29; average salaries of fe
males per month, $l4 89 ; whole number of
male scholars, 295,889 ; whole number of
female scholars, 223,120 ! total number of
scholars, 529,009 ; number of scholars learn
ing German, 10,015 ; 'average number of
scholars attending schools; 361,316; average
cost of teaching for one scholar per month,
581 cents; whole number of teachers, 12,143 ;
whole amount of tax levied for school purpo
ses, $1,242,.223 70; amount of tax levied for
building purposes, $159,076 45; total amount
of tax levied for the system, $1,354,937.04;
amouct received from the State appropriation,.
$159,554 17; amount received from collect
ors of school tax, $1,127,992 61 ; cost of in
struction, $1,041,571 96; cost of fuel and
contingencies, $110,383 19; coat of school
houses, purchasing, building, renting ; repair
ing, &c., $266,198 76.. - These figures exhibit
a large increase over previous years, and in
dicate that a considerable impetus has been
given to the prosperity of the system.
Seasonable Advice to the Old Line
Whigs
Suggestions have recently been thrown out,
in a number of highly influential and respect
able journals in the . North and West, with
the view of directing the attention of the old
line Whigs to the alleged necessity. of reor
ganizing their party and of holding their cus
tomary National Convention. In noticing
the course of the Louisville Courier, the
Boston Courier, and other old-line Whig or
gans, in regard to this subject, the Louisville
Times takes occasion to impart the following
seasonable advice :
" If - these gentlemen will act sensibly, they
will meet and resolve to act with the Demo
cratic party during the coming presidential
canvass, and help to crush out the vile, reck
less and disorganizing spirit of Know-Noth
ingism. After that, they can reorganize their
party, if they desire to do so, or continue
their support of the administration which
they help to place in power, until such time
as an honest difference as to governmental
policy shall demand on the part of the dissen
tients an organization of another party, upon
a basis differing from the policy of the ad
ministration.
"This would be a course consistent with
[patriotism, and with the conservative char
acter which has been claimed for the old
Whig party. The organization of a mere
faction at this time, with no living questidns
of policy differing from those of the Dem
ocratic party, would be unworthy of intelli
gent, conservative, and patriotic men: Nor
are patties built up by such hot-bed growth.
They ate erected upon fundamental differen
ces of opinion s upon constitutional construc
tion and policy ; and until these differences
arise, it is folly to attempt to force a party
into existence. There are now no funda
mental differences of opinion upon the policy
of the country between Democrats and old
line Whigs. There is, therefore, nothing to
prevent their cordial co-operation in the cdm
ing canvass. When together they have beat
en down the factionistb and fanatics who now
threaten the overthrow not only of the funda
mental principles of the constitution, but the
constitution itself, it will be time enough' to
entertain differences of opinion upon ques
tions of policy.
"If the old line Whigs, therefore, are what
they have always claimed and professed to
be, their first duty is to save the Constitution.
The Know Nothing party, in one section,
has become a contemptible abolition party,?
and its fundamental' bases throughout the
Union is an attempt to overthrow civil and_
religious liberty. No conservative old line
Whig, honestly standing on the principles of
his own party, can for a moment act with or
countenance such a party. On the contrary,.
every principle upon which they so long'
struggled against the Democratic party must
impel them with a hundred-fold power to
active and unrelenting hostility to Know
Nothingism. They can assume no position
of neutrality or indifference. Liberty and
the Constitution are in danger, and every pat
riot must act, or prove recreant to his duty to
his country.
A PROCLAMATION
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
Whereas, indications exist that public tran
quility and the suprentacy of law in the Ter
ritory of Kansas are endangered by the reP
rehensible acts or purposes of persons, both
within and without the same, who propose
to direct and control its political organization
by force : It appearing that combinations
have been formed therein to resist the execu
tion of the territorial laws, and thus, in effect,
subvert by violence all present constitutional
and legal authority: It also appearing that
persons residing without the Territory, but
near its borders, contemplate armed interven
tion in the affairs thereof: It also appearing
that other persons, inhabitants of remote
States, are collecting money, engaging men,
and providing arms ,for the same purpose:
And it further appearing that combinations
within the Territory are endeavoring, by the
agency of emissaries and otherwise, to induce
individual States of the Union to intervene
in the affairs thereof, in violation to the Con
stitution of the United States :
And whereas, all such plans for the deter
mination of the future institutions of the
Territory, if carried into action from within
the same, will constitute the fact of insurrec
tion, and, if from without, that of invasive
aggression, and will, in either case, justify
and require the forcible interposition of the
General Government, as well to maintain the
laws of the Territory as those of the Union :
• Now. therefore, I, Franklin Pierce; Presi
dent of the United States, do issue this, my
proclamation, to command all persons enga
ged in unlawful combinations against the
constituted authority of the Territory. of Kan
sas, or of the United States, to disperse and
retire peaceably to their respective abodes,
and to warn all such persons that any attempt
ed insurrection in said Territory, or aggres
sive intrusion into the same will be resisted
not only by the employment of the local
militia, but also by that of any available
forces of the United States; to the end of as
suring immunity from violence•and full pro
tection to the persons, property, and civil
rights of all peaceful and law abiding inhab
itants of the Territory.
If, in any part of the Union, the fury of
faction or fanaticism, inflamed into disregard
of the great principles of popular sovereignty
which, under the constitution, are funda
mental in the whole structure of our institu
tions, is to bring on the country the dire ca
lamity of an arbitrament of arms in that
Territory, it shall be between lawless violence
on the one side and conservative force on the
other, wielded by legal authority of the gen
aral government. -
I call on the citizens, both of adjoining and
of distant States, to abstain from unauthorized
intermeddlinc , b in the local concerns of the
Territory, admonishing them that, its organic
law is to be executed with impartial justice;
that all individual acts of illegal interference
will incur condign punishment.; and that any
endeavor to intervene by organized force will
be firmly withstood.
I invoke all good citizens to promote order
by rendering obedience to the law ; to seek
remedy for temporary evils by peaceful
means; to discountenance and- repulse the
counsels and the instigations of agitators and
of disorganizers ; and to testify their.attach
meat to their country, their pride in its great
ness, their appreciation of the blessings they
enjoy, and their determination that republican
institutions shall not fail in °their bands, by
co-operating to uphold the majesty of the
laws, and to vindicate the .sanctity of the
constitution.
Lit testimony whereof, I have hereunto set
my hand, and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed to these presents.
Done at the city of Washington, the eleventh
day of
_February, in the year of our
,Lord one thousand eight hundred and
[SEAL.J fifty-six, and. of the independence of
the United States the eightieth.
FRANKLIN PIERCE.
By the President :
W. L. MARcY,'Secretary of State.
“Anti-Nebraska.”
There is no term more in use at the pres
ent day than the above, and none which con
veys a more indefinite meaning. We hear
it in the street, upon the stump in public as
semblies and in 'Aiwa circles—it is in the
mouth. of every class and condition of men,
from the highest to the lowest, from the learn
ed statesmap, down to the unlettered rustic,
who knows rio more of Nebraska than do the
Fejee islanders. It is harped upon by those
in high life, as though it were the great talis
manic phrase, by the repetition of which the
door to power and influence is to be opened,
and fortune, political, temporal and spiritual,
showered upon and around the zealous wight,
who may happen to be loudest and longest in
his vociferations of the favorite phraseology.
We are led to inquire into the present
meaning of the term, because we are frequent
ly asked the question, "ANTI-NEBRASKA !
what does it mean 1." There was a time
when it meant opposition to the passage by
Congress, of that law known as the Nebras
la bill, and, at that time, it was easily under
, stood; but what does it mean now? That
bill has long since become a law of the land,
and all the opposition that can now be waged
against it, can never prevent what has already
taken place, nor do we belieVe that there is
even a desire on the part of oUr opponents,
to restore the Missouri law, if they had the
power, but ate content with crying' Anti-
Nebraska"—"Nebrask a. Iniquity" ---"Nebras
ka Swindle"—and such other choice Aboli
tion denunciations. The name of Anti-Ne
braska is but another name for Abolition.—
It can mean nothing else; for, as we have be
fore said, we do - not believe that that class of
men wish to see the Nebraska act repealed,
or the Missouri CotnPromise restored . —for ei
ther would consume their entire capital.
The Territory of Nebraska is now organ
ized as other Territories have been, and the
same nay be said of Kansas. Their people
are la free to establish slavery or reject it
as they may think proper. That they will
reject slavery, we think most like:yr. What
can be gained, then ; by crying out against a
law which it,is not desired to have repealet.!?..
And, above all, where is the sense of-our op
ponents styling themselves Anti-Nebraska
ites, since that question is settled by law, as
far as, it is likely to be for years to come ?
It is but another name for another party.—
Aboliticnism has become so odious that noth
ing of a political character can, be accomplish
ed by its members under its true name.—
Hence they have resorted to trickery. It
means Abolitionism—nothing more or less—
and deny it as they may, the time is at hand
when the truth will be fully manifest. Even
now the elements are rife with the doctrines
of that Fanatical paty. Giddings, Hale, Gree
ly, and hosts of kindred spirits are abroad in
the land, thundering forth their disunion sen
timents upon every occasion. To the world
they profess to be "Republicans," or Anti-
Nebraskaites, supposing that they will thus
escape the odium which attaches to Aboli
tionism, until such time as they may gather
strength sufficient to warrant them in pro
claiming their true principles. Then they
will throw off all disguise, and avow their
devotion to negro-ology and all its sweet-scen
ted accompaniments. Then will such men as
Giddings, Banks, Hale, and their followe:s,
led on' by such papers as the New York Tri
bune, boldly assert their odious principles of
universal equality amongst the races of men,
and endeavor to give the negro the same
rights and privileges which white men en
joy. The Black Republican Actrines lead
to this, and we admonish our readers to be
ware. Shun it as you would the fangs of a
viper, or the poisonous effluvia of the deadly
Upas.
Mr. Buchanan and the Presidency
The Pennsylvanian publishes the following
extract of a private letter from Mr. Buchan
an, in which he states his position in regard
to the presidency :
"This I neither desired nor expected. The
movement in my favor has, therefore, origi
nated without my previous knowledge or
consent; and I should beguile satisfied should
another be selected. The next will be the
most important and responsible ,presidential
term since the last war with England, or, per
haps, since the origin of the government.—
Both our foreign and our domestic affairs will
require the guidance of an able, firm, and
skillful pilot to steer the vessel of State clear
of the breakers. I pray Heaven that the best
man may be selected for the crisis - I and to
me it is a matter of indifference whether he
comes from the North or the South, the East
or the West."

IV/ARRIED,
On Thursday the 14th inst., by,theßev..l. W.
Hanghawout, Mr. DAVID STEWART and
Miss WINEP FIRED DUFF, all of McAla.vey's
Fort, Huntingdon county.
DIED,
Ott the 3d inst., in the village of Hinkletown,
Lancaster county, REBECCA. daughter of the
late Daniel McElroy, and wife of - B. F. Hill,
aged 42 years, 5 months and 17 days.
The subject of this notice was born.near New
Holland, August 17,1813. At an early period
of life she became - interested in the subject of
religion, and finally connected herself with the
people of God in the city of Reading, where she
then resided. ,Having received a liberal educa
tion, and possessing an active mind, she direct
ed her attention to the teaching of youth; and
took the charge of one of the first infitnt schuols,
established' in that city. On September 13,
1841, she was united in marriage to B. F. Hill,
who is, now, one Of our much respected teach
ers of public schools in the district of Earl,
Lancaster county. For many years previous to
her death, she labored with her hvband, in the
same useful and important employment; and
retired from, the discharge of her duties in the
school room, only when disease had seized upon
her lungs, and had marked her for its victim."
In all her intercourse with the world—in all
the duties devolving upon her, as a teacher, a
wife, and a mother, she endeavored to exemplify
the power of religion; and thus recommend
. it
to those around her. Eternity can only reveal
the full influence of a pious teacher of youth.
Whatever effect her example and her precepts
may have had on the hearts of the youth com
mitted to her care, her work is nuw done.
When the messenger of death arrived he found
her ready with her lamp trimmed and burning.
Having lived the life of the righteous her end
was peace. As her emaciate l frame was sink
ing under the hands of the fell destroyer, she
awaited in calmness and submission, the hour
of God's appointment to call her hence. With
full reliance on the •merits of a crucified Re
deemer, she bade farewell to the scenes of earth,
to mingle, as we trust, with the spirits of the
just made perfect in the kingdom of Heaven.
