B. F. Watson, general missionary Legislature after "the -war passed a bill which, after declaring that, whenrthe passions excited by the civil' war are allayed, we believe the United States will repognize the justice of our claims, therefore commissioners are appointed to take down names, value, of slaves emancipated, in order that the proper testimony may be perpetuated. All over the "South similar evidence has been carefully-preserved, and it is the determination of these people to compel the Government at some period- to pay for these slaves. To rush headlong into the danger after such a warning is the height of imbecility, and yet thousands in the Nonh are traveling that road.

W. Henderson. digest: Hendricks, during the trial times, when Kansas lay-prostrate and. bleeding at the feet of the slave poAyer, helped the. cause of our oppresses to the' best of his ability.

In war, Hendricks wras that most detestable, product -of treason, "a Many of in those old days of struggle, swore in righteous wrath we would never forgive Copperheads. Hendricks was so loyal to treason that he preferred leaving church to listening to a loyal sermon. He clamored for place at any price," and publicly deplored the danger to the peculiar system of labor." He denounced the administration, the draft and the war in unmeasured terms. He encouraged deserters and advised that those attempting their arrest "be attended to." Truly Kansans who can be directly or indirectly instrumental in placing the Vice-Presidency, and likely the Presidency in such hands are unsophisticated and very forgiving, and will have no right to complain when reactionary measures distract the country, and the several amendments to the constitution Income a dead letter.

It also defeats Matthews for Congress. Columbus, October 11. Further returns from the country shew continued gains, still keep Barnes somewhat ahead of the gain made by the Democrats in the large cities. It now seems that if the same ratio is kept up in the remaining half of country, the Republican majority in the will be about 700. The chairman of the Democratic State Committee concedes the State to; the Republicans.

Sliall ir Pay for the Slaves' From the Chieago Inter-Ocean The Democrats pooh-pooh in their speeches at the North the idea of the government ever being called upon to pay for slaves, and tell their auditors that the amendments to the constitution prohibit such payment. Ask them whether in their opinion those amendments were legally adopted, and they will hesitate. It certain that the constitution will not be permitted to stand, in the way of such payment if once the government is entirely un B. F. Bates, Denver.
