Hope for Kansas.
The Washington City correspondent of
the New York Herald, under date of Nev.-
7. say. it is now given out in Washing
ton that Mr. Buchanan is in favor of the
admission of Kansas as a free State. This
ennuneiation of views is attributed to the
emphatic expression of condemnation of
the course of President Pierce in the late
election.
Heaven grant that this is so ; that the
struggle against the Blare power has al
ready resulted in an glorious a triumph.—
The election of Mr. Buchanan will be a
cause of little regret, if he shell, as this
intelligence indicates, be sagacious enough
to recognise the indobitable fact that the
voice of the the people is against further
extension of slavery-and that his elec
tion was attributable solely to divisions in I
opposition.
The South, it it- intimated, will be in
dignant, and Jeff. Davis & Co., will endea.
vor to make a counterpoise in the senate
by pouring emigrants into Texas, and sli
cing off two additional slave States there,
but there are two op three littlo troubles
to he settled before that can be tfccomplish
ad tinder "squatter Bovereignty."
The Traitor.
It is universally acknowledged that a
mong all the despicable and god cursed
portion of humanity, the Traitor is. most;.
to-be-despised. He should be despised by
every man who has the fire of true honor
burning within him. For a man ranking
below the Mrdiocracy of public confi
dence to prove himself false, does not sur
prise us, but when men who stand in pub
lic places and denounce the conduct of n
Judas, to prove themselves to be phlitical
traitors—little better than Arnolds—;to
theircountry's weal, it excites within tho
breast of the freemen an almost inexpres
sible indignation against the offender and
forever blights his confidence in his integ
rity : believing with Chalmers, that 4 , lie
who has no political conscience is defi
cient in the most important priciple that
makes the man."
Rev. Dudley A. Tyng.
The election, held by the congregation
of the Church of the Epiphany, in Phil
adelphia, to decide whether the Rev. Dr.
Tyng should continue ns lostor was held
last Monday evening the 10th. 'Phu re
sult was as follows :—For the vestry, 57 ;
against t try. 44. 'This resulrivill
involve res potion of Mr. Tyng, in
a ce "alth a previous arrangement
een the parties. But one hun
(1 one votes were cast in a congre
numbering probably twenty-five
g) [arsons. Very few persons were
Igvote in accordance with the
ae church, and the settlement of
the question was consequently in the
hands of a small portion of the cong,rega.
MIL Ike decision involves the iminedi.
iesigna L ion of the Rector, the previous
action of the vestry having been sustain
ed. The difficulty between the reverend
gentleman and his congregation, it .vill
be remembered, results from a political
sermon preached in his church in the ear
ly part of the present political canvass,
Mr. Tyng feeling it incumbent on him to
denounce slavery and to commend the
candidates of the party opposing it.
Kansas.
The Lawrence Herald of Freedom,
. . . .
which has just re-appeared, after a suppres
sion of six months, states that emigrants
are arriving daily in Kansas, and in large
numbers, by way of the Missouri river,
which is now once more opened to travel
lers. The Herald has heard of no late vio
lence along the river, and hclieves that none
anima, and that persons will be perfectly
secure in travelling in small numbers to
Kansas, if they keep silent on the exciting
issues of the day. The late troubles have
diminished the number of families, but
have hurried forward a largo class'of young
men and adventurers. A line of stages is
plying regularly between Lawrence and
Leavenworth.
The Herald says, what will surprise
moat people, that there are comparatively
few families in Lawrence from Maseachm
setts; that the principal merchant. by
Missourians ; that the chief sufferers are
robbery are Missourians; and that ns the
goods in the various stores plundered were
sold by St, Louis wholesale dealers on cre
dit, the losses by all the invasions falls
heaviest on Missouri herself. This shows,
in a striking light, the acuteness of the
Yankees in Kansas, for while all the ire
of the Missouri Border Ruffians was direc-,
te.l against them, they have managed to
escape the brunt *fit, and throw the losses ;
on ±he people of Miswun
Election Troubles in New Orleans.
A ttaa whn was in the street hurrahing
for liathafian, was mortally stabbed by
two others, who jumped from a cab which
happened to be passing. Aftiftliedeed,
they got in and drove ell again, The of
rice of the Louisiana Courier, Democratic,
was found on search by the police to be
armed for defence, and a number of per
sons had collected there to defend it in
case of attack. Several Germans were ar
rested. for firing at two. American, with
arms given them by the captain of a Ger
man military company. A man named
O'Brien was shot and mortally wounded
by some person unknown, in the street.
A house occupied by &foreigner named
Petrie watt found by the police to he pro
vided with a double-bar6.ll,•il gun, nine
swords, nna two ' hundred balls and cart
' ridges. It was occupied by four men. An
I •
Italian who was arrested was armed with
a pistol, stiletto and whistle. All this took
place on the evening before election day,
and the activity of the police seems to
hare prevented open riots.
Our Glorious Party.
Whether defeated or not, we shall ever
, feel proud of the demonstration made by
the Republican party,. in its first national
contest. If defeated, we are not subdued,
but we shill rise again with a vigor and
la determination which shall strike terror
into the hearts of the enemy. Young as
the party is, had the contest neon between
Fremout and Buchanan alone, we would
I have carried every Free State by over
whelming majorities, but with another can
didate in the field, upon whom our forces
were divided, we must confess the chart
ces for carrying as many States as we
have, seemed to be against us. We have
had an old and well organized party to
contend against which by adroit pail
tact, drew into its ranks the fragments of
every faction, and converted the raw re
cruit into a veteran, who fought us as if
he had been the hero of many it well
contested battle, and vet we stied, if not
victorious, the proud masters of the Most
glorious portion of this vast Republic—
the spot where man acknowledges no mils. :
ters, and where Freedom outstretches her
wings over a people who have no superior
under heaven, Is there no room for rejol
cing in this 1 Should we not be prouder
in our defeat, if defeated we are, than the
victor, who claims as a portion of his con
stituents, the human cattle of the South,
whose voices are unheard in the contest,
and yet are an element in the power which
silences the free voice of the North ? We
rejoice in it, and throughout the civilized
wreqd, wherever Freedom has a foothold
cur cause will be looked upon as the one
upon which the hopes of liberty must hang.
We must not abandon our organization;
or slumber at our post, for the day is not
far distant when we must and will tri
umph. Our enemies may misrepresent
us, but truth is omnipotent, and must ulti•
mutely prevail.
The Canal Appointment.
- • - - - -
It is now a fixed fact that the manage.
men! of our public works is to be with the
Democracy for another term. Such being
the case, an d presuming on the old adage,
"to the victors belong the spoils," that
"none but Democrats shall be placed on
guard" it is of importance to all, the most
competent and faithful be selected. For
this reason we hope the Canal Board may
re-appoint the present excellent Supervi
nor on this division of the Canal—Major
Leet. The Major renders perfect satis
faction to all parti.s, and we hope, for the
sake of the tax payers of the Common
wealth, that the Major be reappointed.

of Buchanan ; a considerably tougher job than
wheeling a barrel of apples.

no part nor lot in it, except as sufferers. Bal

than the scene of a republican election; and
the returns of the killed and wounded look re
formidable. But mark that the "agita.

nothing to do with it.

SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH Ar Roos'.. ATLAN
ite.—The steamer Arctic, %%Hell boo been on
au expedition across the At antic to determine
the feasibility of a submarine telegraph uni.
ling the Old and New Worlds, returned to
New York on Tuesday. Of the result of her
explorations, the Journal of Commerce re
marks
She completed her undertaking in the Most
satisfactory manner. She sounded the Atlan•
tic all the way across, finding the greatest
depth 1270 fathoms, (more than two miles )
The bed of the oceitii, in the section traversed
by the Arctic, is a plateau, as already an.
nouneed by Capt. Berryman, who had twice
before sounded across the Atlantic. The bot
tom in the deeper part is a very fino rend,, of
a mouse gray color, so soft that the sounding
instruments frequently sank several feet into
the mud. They brought up specimens of the
bottom, at every sounding, in quills which were
attached:to the sounding Martini ueut. Towards
the shores on entill side, this mud changes to a
fine green ooze No other substances wove
met with, no reek, nor anything that might
prove fatal to a telegraph wire. The whole
distance across was found to be 1010 sea miles,
from St. John, N. F. to Valentin Harbor, Ire •
laud. The greatest depth was found nearly
in the centre between these two places.
NEORO INEWRItECTION to 41.11.1{ .t9.-We
learn from the Memphis pipers that there is a
great excitement in Union county, Arkansas
on account of the discovery of a plot among
the segroes to rise in rebellion on the 13th of
this month. Fortunately the plot was discos.
ered in time to prevent one of the most bloody
massacres in tho whole annals of insurrection.
The plot was very extensive, and the negroos
who were taken up and made to confess impli•
cated others twenty miles off. Some of the ne•
groes say the rising was to take place the day
of the Presidential election. The men all being
from home on that day, the plot was to murder
the women and children first, and then attack
the unarmed men at the pulls. Several white
men have been implicated, and notified to
leave the country in a given time, or he hung.
The letter states that on the Coldurado the ex•
citement is intense, and that several tiegroes
have been hung. The plot seems to have been
very extensive reaching as far ad Texas.
leir The London police are on the lookout
for tho recovery of a casket'of jewels recently
stolen from the Baroness Anseime do Roteehild.
The rubbery was committed at the county resi•
deuce of the Baroness, at Frankfurt un.the-
Maine. The jewels were in a cashet and in a
brown leather jewel case, the value of the con
tents being estimated at 200,000 francs. For
the most part, the jewels, front their remarka•
hie beauty and rarity, may be' easily rceogiti•
zed. Among them Were the followingt—Phut
rows of large pearls, of olneli three iows were
of ten to twelve grain pearls, and ono rote of
twenty to thirty grain pearls ' the mast &lotus be
ing worth 40,000 (ranee::,, ;aid the whole,from
80,000 to 100,000 franeei.; a large oriental
onyx, surrounded 'with diantoteht. valued at
10,000 frames; a serpent ring, with

'Hannah de Rostschild; four large pearl fait,

of diamonds, emeralds rubles.
War The steatnehip Illinois arrived et New
Yi-frk, yesterday, from Aspinwall, with sixteen
days later news from California and Oregoo.
Two the Supreme Court Judges, who, were f
leeted by the American party have gone over
to the Democrata. Governor Stevens has met

Indians were quiet, and a number of theta
