1 HI! ADMINISTRATION.
About the only fair thing which Gov.
Walker has done id Kansas, is the rejec
tion of tb pretended vote of Oxford pre
cinct : and this, his solitary act of fairness,
the Administration deeply regret, and would
openly condemn and repudiate, if they da
red to do so
The evidence upon this poiut is decisive.
We have already noticed the fact, that
the gentleman who prepares the telegraphic
despatches from this city to the associated
press, announced, on the 30th of (Xtober,
that the Administration " imphuiically con
t/or.nf" Gov. Walker, and would remove
7 hitu if he did not resign. Ou rite next day,
this statement was corrected -*s erroneous,
although declated to have "been made oil au
thority "usually correct and reliable.''''
The New York Journal of Commerce de
clares that the despatch of October 30th
"ought to be entirely discredited," and tha'
it was probably "i'o/h/t up io influence the
elections'* unfavorably to the Administra
tion.
Undoubtedly the fact alleged in this de
spatch is a most damnatory one, as resjeets
the Administration ; but that it > was sub
stantially true, can be clearly- shown.
The gentleman who furnishes the daily
despatches to the associated press, is em
ployed at the office of the Union, and both
his position and politics negative -the idea
that he made a wilful misrepresentation,
for the purpose of ipjuiing the Administra
tion.
On the same 30th of October, -when his
despatch wcTrt to the • associated press, the
following despatch wuit over the wires to
the Richmond tiouth :
"There is no doubt that the Adiniui: tra
tion feel outraged at the couise of Gov.
Walker in Kansas, in purging tlie polls,
contrary to specific instructions not to act
as judge iti the premises. There is little
doubt that both Walker and Stanton will
be recalled, unless they voluntarily resign, !
or facts a< yet unknown come to light re- i
eardiuir or justifying their extraordinary i
course."
On the 2d of November, the Washington
■Star , cue of the organs, said :
u dov lYatkei and Johnston County. We
apprehend that the Journal oj Commerce is
in error in its belief that there is no founda
tion whatever for the statements of Wash
ington letters for the press, attributing to
the Administration dissatisfaction with the
course pursued by Gov. Walker, with ref
erence to the alleged election frauds in
Johnson county, Kansas. We do not, how
ever, believe that the disapprobation of that
course, which the Administration is said to
pnterfain, is so great as to justify thenews
naper correspondent is I statements that the
design of removing him is entertained. *
* *
"Thus,-for twenty-four hours, it seemed
to bo believed by usually well-informed
fierson around us, that in assuming, us al
eged, to decide upon'the character of the
.Johnson county returns—setting aside • the
certificates of judges-of the election, and is
suing his warrants, entitling theiu to to hold
-eats in the Legislature, to candidates re
turned to biiu by the saitjjudges as liavitig
been defeated— lie lias overstepped bis au
thority, under the ciicumstanees, in a most
delicate point; noting, in fact, directly con
trary to his instructions. Our impression
is, that in :t few days those instructions will
• !• published,''
It was during the "Iwenly four /jors"
immediately following the news that Gov.
Walker had spoiled all their plans, thut
those unmeasured exclamations of * rage,
which were the basis of the despatches -to
the associated press and to 'the llichiicmd
Suvth.
Now let us hear the account given of the
matter by the correspondent of the New
York Herald, another Administration mouth
piece :
"WAsmxuroNj Oct. 31, 1857.
'•The telegraph report in this morning's
papers, that Gov. 1 Walker and Secretary
Stanton would be removed unless they sliall
0b0069 to resign, is without foundation.—
While the President and Cabinet condemn
the course of Gov. Walker iD issuing his
proclamation, and transcending his instruc
tions in throwing out the vote of the Oxford
precinct—tor he had no authority to do so
under the Territorial laws, it belonging to'
the Legislature to determine the authentici
ty of their own members—thereby displea
sing both parties, but it does not follow that
he must be removed. The whole matter
will be brought before a special meeting of
the Cabinet this evening.
"Secretary Floyd was telegraphed for last
eveuiug, his preseuee being desired at a Cab
inet meeting to be held en Monday next,
relative to Gov. Walker and bis late proc
lamation, which will be ccusured by the Ad
ministration, as iu direct violation <>f bis in
structions of September 8. He had no au
thority whatever to pronounce upon the le
gality of votes, and was specially instructed
th receive the returns, and let the Legisla
ture determine their character.
"The frieuds of Gov. Walker here say
that he committed an error—the wonder is
that he has committed only one—and that,
after acknowledging his reprimand, ha will
let his name go to the Senate. If the fire
eaters choose to ri-ject him, then he will be
in position to dnfeud himself and tbe Ad
ministration. The Southern members ot
tbe Cabinet apprehend that this mistake of
Gov. Walker will re-opcu the Kansas tight
in the South, and bring the whole subject
again before Congress.
"Ttn o'clock, P. M. —Gov. Walker will
not be removed but reprimanded for the er
lor committed."
Of the same general purport is tbe fol
lowing from the dilates, jooe of the organs
heie.of Nevouiler 2 ;
"df certain rumors now current are cor
rect, the Administration are about to man
ifest their disapprobation -of tbe Walker
ivausas poliey in some respects, and partic
ularly in regard to his. proclamation reject
ing .vetaeof the Oxford precinct, in Johu
60ti county The Administration, it is. said,
are of the opinion t-irat. it belonged to "the i
Legislature, aud trot to the Governor, to
judge of the 'eieetiou returns and qualifica
itons' of its members."
Here, in Washington, no fact is more no
torious than that the Democratic politicians
received the news of Gov. Walker's decision
in the matter of the Oxford precinct, as the
death-knell of all their hopes. During the
"hoenty-four hours" referred to by the Star,
they showered upon his head every species
of imprecation their ingenuity could suggest
-and they ute by no means destitute of inge
nuity iu that particular.
Tue plan of the Administration seemed
to be perfectly sure of success. They bad,
aeeoi ding to the Iharld man, "specially
instructed" Gov. Walker to "receive the
returns," he they what they might. Know
'ngtthc character of the Border Ruffian of
ficials who had the management of those
"returns," they'nevcr, for one moment,
feared that the Republicans could carry the
Ijflgiflaturc. Hence, uH-hough perceiving
that a Republican success iu Kansas would
dissolve ihe whole Black Democratic com
bination, they felt not one single apprehen
sion until this decision of Gov. Walker
eaxe .ijxin them like a clap of thunder.
What object is it now whioh politi
cians will hold up to the slaveholding in
terest, so as to continue the Southern una
nimity which brought them into power, and,
thiiiug which, they must go down never to
rise again?— iVastur\qton Republic.

TIIE EFFECT OF 4 PROTECTIVE
TARIFF IV RUSSIA•
A terrible tornado i+ sweeping o*ver the
bu d, and cur financial and pecuniary stiong
holds htrvo well nigh l alb surrendered. The
tempest arose in a sky clear -to mercantile
and political bats, but was foretold never
theless by the prophets. Wisdom carried in
the street, and but few hearkened. The
storm came over the political horizon un
provoked by domestic war. pestilence ot
famine.
This event, so oppressive to the nation,
forces us to draw a comparison between our
own country and another— Russia—the lat
ter believed, a few years since, to he verging
on ruin. During the late Eastern war.
Russia was cut off from communication with
almost, the whole of Europe, her enemies,
accordingly, predicted that, whatever might
be the geographical and political results of
thecontest, her finances would he prostrated
her husbandry and well-being ruined for
many years to come. Such mas pre- em i
neatly the language •of the English Frc e
Trade press and of its echoes in the country
We uorelenringly opposed such views.—
Our strenuous Oellef in itic capaciij or
Russia to override the tempest and stand up
in the Titaiitic stiuggle, and to recover
<juicily frotn various and unaccountable
losses, was based on the--soundness of the
Protective principle flourishing there unin
terruptedly for more than 30 years previous
to the Crimean complications. Russia, in
fact, is in every industrial and commercial
advantage, incalculably inferior to this
country, excepting as regards a few of her
raw products. She is inferior in mental
activity, in culture, in enterprise, in industry,
in internal communications,in capital or un
ucttutuulated wealth, in agricultural econ
omics and productions, in national force aud
graudeur. Notwithstanding these immeas
urable inferiorities, the iuk of the Treaty of
Paris was liardly dried when Russia began
at once to recover from losses incuned during
the war—losses of capital, meu, cattle aud
labor—losses truthfully incalculable in cy
phers. When at the present moment the
interest on capital is legally increased by
Ranks all over the world, Russia, reduces it
on loans made by the Imperial Rank called
. Bombard, to the owners of real estate; re
duces it,' too, on loans made to trade by coin
mcrcial institutions fur credit. Since the
close of the war, about §>40,000,00u paper
currency, or notes issued by the commercial
Ranks, have been withdrawn from circula
tion and officially and publicly destroyed.
After an unsuccessful attempt of the rail
way contractors—all foreign bankers—to
sell the shares on l the exchanges of Europe
—partly on account of' English enmity,
partly mi vecoHnt of general pressure—
Russia afforded-a'market those shares
within her own-confines. Shares aud stocks
are sold in the interior to home capitalists?
and the expected influx of foreign capital
has failed to come to pass; bat nevertheless,
the projected net work of railroads is now
energetically in the course of construction
all over the immense empire. 1 Russia, more
over, builds immense steamers aDd various
machineries, not only iu her navy-yards and
1 workshops, but iu those of America, France
and England, beside squadrons of smaller
ones, constructed abroad or at borne, for
pacific purposes. Not only on the Baltic,
the.lilack, and the Caspian seas, witness
almost daily such new crafts, but all her
principal rivers—the Vistula, Dneiper?
Wolga, Aanoor, the Siberian Irtisch aud

sea and the<Oural Lake as well as the
Asiatic lakes, have steam navigation.—

Maryland Election —Excitement in
Baltimore.
The city of Baltimore for some days pri
or to Sunday last was the scene of a most
intense and threatening excitement. It will
bo recollected that at the recent municipa]
election, by some singular concert of action
the Democracy of that city determine to ab
sent themselves the Poll:;, the Demo
cratic Judges of election resigning on the
day previous 'o the election. After the
election, the hue and cry was raised by the
Journals of the Foreign party that Baltimor 0
city was under the control of mob law—tha 1
the "Plug Uglies" ruled the Polls—and
that the Democracy were disfranchised, —
with similar stuff -all of which was brusked
aside by the calm but thorough and full
contradictory statement of the mayor of the
city who had vi>ited each of the Polls on
election day Still the Foreign organs kept
up the senseless howl about mob-law, &c.— j
The precise iuteuduieuf of all this wnE-nq i
apparent at the time. Tiie whole ruse has -
since been explained.
Gov. Liaox —a bitter, tborougli-going,
and hot-beaded Eocofoco purtizan—desired
some pretext tor calliug out the U. States
military to eoutrol the electiou it) Baltimore
aftor the manner of Mayor Magruder's coup
de-iet at Washington last Spring, when
American citizens were deliberately shot
down by I . States Marines. Accordingly,
last week, Gov. Ligon, adopting the com
plaints of the Foreign organs as a ba>is of
official action, i>-ued Orders for the Military
of Rahimore city to he enrolled and in read
iness for active service on Election day.—
A requisition was also made upon President
B'lcliatlan for F. States troops. All this
not ODIJ- without ilie assent, but in direct
fa -c of the protect of Mayor Swan. The
publication of Gov. Ligou's extraordinary
prueliti..-vllUi**/ au Mluttr
tucnt throughout the city—the great mass
of the people regarding it us an unwarrant
able political manoeuvre to over-awe Amer
icau-boru citizens, and if needs be re-enact
the same s.enes of outrage and murder
which last spring disgraced the national me
tropolis. Prominent citizens called on the
Governor, and begged him to recall his Or
ders ; while others;repicsenting ttie Foreign
interest of the Deiuoe-aey, insisted upon his
carrying them on'. Mayor SWAN peremp
torily refused to recognize the right of the
Governor or his military to interfere with
the polide control of the city, except as he
{the Mayor) might see fit to require their
assistance, and proceeded calmly to prepare
for the worst. 'ln the iue:n time lie excite
ment in the city increased until Sunday last,
when it seemed to have reached a culiuinat
point. All day long large crowds of imiig
naut people blocked vp the streets at vari
ous points, discussing the Governor's mo
tives and purposes, and threatening teriblc
consequences in ease of a conflict between
the military and citizens police. Most of
the coiijiMOuditig officers of the miiitaay re
ported to the Governor, that their men, with
few exceptions refused to turn out except at
the call of the Mayor of the city. The May
or was called on several times during the
day to address large crowds counseling
calmuess, prudence - and orderly bearing.—
lie was uniformly loudly cheered.
At length, about 5 o'clock, 1 P.M., on fun
day it was announced that the Governor
had determined to withdraw his Orders for
the Military, and leave the City where it be
jonged, under tbe control of the Mayor.—
This announcement acted like a charm. A
feeling of relief soon pervaded all classes.—
The certainty of a bloody collision between
the military and peorfle, resolved itself into
a sense of some great calamity being unex
pectedly warded off. In a few hours the
crowds began to disperse and retire to their
homes.
Thus ends one of the most extraordinary
tiranoeuvers of party to control popular clec
'lious by the aid of Soldiery, that we have
•known in this Republic. It was attempted
at Washington last Spring. It is a policy
suited to the political coce of a Napoleon,
bit not to that of Free America. llow Je
suitism must laugh over the pliant servitude
of its tools and vassals, in the ranks of

OREGON.—The new Constitution of OT
egou bids fait'to contaiu some curious fea
tures. One of these, prepared at tiro hist
dates, in the Convention, was to abolish
tiie grand jury system, 011 account of its
expense and inquisitorial character, and
substitute therefor the result of exatniua
t.otis before justices of the peace. An
other is to make' the Governor ex-officio
Treasurer ot the State, to have no Lieut
eiiuut Governor, and to snalco the Secreta-
ryot State Govcruor pro tcai. i:t case of
the death of the executive. A third nov
elty is tlie -limitation of the uuinbcr of
members of the State Senate to fifteen, and
of the Assembly to thirty, with hiouuial
sessions. A fourth is the viva race system
of voting at all public elections. This has
been doue all aloug in Oregon, and is tha
old English plan, adopted thence into Vir
ginia, and from Virginia carried westward
tiirough Kentucky and Missouri to Uiegon.
The voting is dene in the same way iu

features which may be briefly stated thus;
Judges of the courts are rendered ineligi
ble to any office other than a judicial oue
duriug the tortus for which they may have
been elected, and for oue year thereafter;
towns and cities are prohibited from con
tracting debts for any purpose Whatever:
banking charters are absolutely prohibited,
