The people were forbidden to vote any other than the Lane ticket, and were threatened with all sorts of violence if they dared attempt to vote any other. Several peaceable citizens had been murdered, outright, and property to a large amount had been robbed. The people were terror-stricken and society in a state of disorganization. But by tho energetic measures adopted by the Provost Marshal General, Captain Stout, order is again restored, and the peo iau want to see the war closed houora-bly closedas they believe it can be in a shcrt time.

They want no separation; they want the Union as it was; they desire to bo on terms of brotherhood with the people of the South. And that, they hope, can be obtained on old Democratic principles the same upon which the Union was founded. That is theSsignificanee of the late elections. God speed the accomplishment of the desired end." The following remarkable article we clip from the Chicago a strong war paper. The disclosures it makes are certainly startling: A strange and Alarming Report Souie weeks ago, since the battle of Antie-tam, numerous delegations have vis-ted ington City, to consult with liie President upon the actual condition of public affairs, ami to suggest some change in the mode of conducting the western campriga.

The President received these delegations kindly, and one of them, as we have Iicaid. os'ctitd hw ty, and at the evident signs of public reprobation toward that merciless upstart and would-be tyrant, are now proclaiming that hj is not a candidate. This ia fulse; he is a candidate. His political fortunes are not only involved in the success or defeat of his ticket, nominated at Topeka, headed by Carney and Wilder; but if a sufiice-ent number of his tools are elected to the Legislature; it is his and their purpose to re-elect him to the UniteJ States Senate, during the approaching winter. Let the people be not deceived.

Lane dictated the nominations at Topeka; it is Lane's ticket; its defeat is Lane's defeat; its success ia Lane's success. By voting for Lane's ticket, or any man upon it, you vote for Lane, and by thus votin you cast your suffrage to rivet upon your free limbs the chains of ono of the most malignant tyrants that ever cursed a free people. C. B. Pierce, one of the Abolition candidates for the State Senate, is a beautiful bird to ask the people for their votes.

In the City Council, a few weeks since, he voted to give the City printing to the Times, at just one hundred per cent more than the Inquirer offered to do the same printing for. The Times, by his vote, will get four hundred dollars (or about that sum according to the estimate) for doing the City printing, while the offered to do the same printing for two hundred dollars. He voted to give the Times four cents a line, when the Ixquirkr offered to do the same work for hvo cents a line. Would not such a man be a beautiful bird to intrust with the people's money If he would be guilty of such an act for the benefit of another, what would he not do to benefit himself? Wonder if he and the Times divide the profits Let the people beware of such a candidate. He is willing to tax the people, to enrich his favorites.

ple are once more secure. Capt. Stout sent Captain's Hays and Gillette, of the Wisconsin Third Cavalry, to Doniphan county, with the requisite instructions and powers. They have repressed all violence, re-established order and security; and have i mind very freely. We are told that in one cf (sT It is idle and foolish in the Times to pretend that Mr.

Mathias wiH not get the vote of the Democracy of Leavenworth county. lie will not only get the Democratic vote, but we know that a number of Republicans, who esteem the man, and want to beat Jim Lane, will also vote for Mathias. We have had news from various parts of the State, and it is to the effect that Mathias will carry the Democratic vote. As between Wilder and Parrott, the Democracy feel little or no interest. Ohio and Indiana.

These noble States will be represented in the next Congress, in tho House, by twenty one Democrats, and only nine Abolitionists. Iu the present House, the same States have twenty Abolitionists and thirteen Democrats. The difference in the two aggregates results from the difference in the two apportionments, under the census of 1850 and lsGO. proclaimed that the people shall be allow ed to exercise the right of suffrage unmo Times pushes thj contemptible fabrication, niak-3 it proper, perhaps, that we should give it attention enough to say that, it is simply absurd, find has no foundation in truth or in fact. Tins in making such a charge, doubtless judges others by its own moral standard; it imagines, be cause it is as urchasahle as mutton-chops in the market, that respectable people may be as venal as itself.

It undertakes to Bit in judjmmt upon the Democracy, and to tell what is, and what is not their duty. The Democrat who goes to such a sourse for instruction in matters relating to his political faith or action, will, if ho asks for a fish, get a serpent, if for bread, a stone. Grapes do not grow upon thorns, nor figs upon thistles. And these illustrations are just as applicable to the Times' candidate for CongrosB, Mr. Parrott, as they are to itself.

If, therefore, there be any Democrats, as the Times claims there are, who will vote for Parrott, while a good, sound, reliable Democratic candidate and honorable gentleman, such as is Mathins, is in the field, they will, in our judgment, be departing from the line of duty: and may live to review their conduct with regret. And pray tell us, what claims has Mr. Parrott upon the votes of Democrats says one, he opposes Jim Lane. And does not Mr. Mathias oppose Jim Lane also? Aye indeed and there is this difference between his opposition and that of Parrott.

Mathias has opposed Lane all the time, under all circumstances, as a dangerous man, an unprincipled demagogue, an usurping tyrant: while Parrott about a year ago, ns is shown by his letter which we have hosvtofore published, was willing to support Lane for the nxt Presidency, provided Lnnv irovhl get him Hip commission of rrficr (j, nil. Now, when a no's is waning, it is claimed as a Kriwtt virtue in Parrott to desert the man who i rapidly hem' deserted by the people! Why does i irrott desert him? Because such the only road to lested, free from all restraint, control, or undue influence. It is their purpose to see that the people be allowed to vote as they please; and any attempt to interfere with the free exercise of this right, will be speed one is ootter to expose the eor rnptions of the abolition republican partv than the Times; for its proprietor has long been in it and hence can speak from practical knowledge. The instincts of the Times are very strong he sees from afar the utter route and disruption of the Republican party; and with unerring insti-est he deserts it in tin.e.

lrly corruption. I declare it, upon my responsibility as a Senator of the United States," said the Hon. John P. Hale, "that the liberties of this country are in greater danger to-day from the corruptions and profligacy practiced in tho various departments "of the government than they are from the open enemy in the field." The people of Kansas have been an apt illustration of this in the "corruptions and profligacy" of the Topeka Convention, which, more than any other body that has ever assembled in the State, has disgusted them with party organization. That it was controlled by one' man ir.

fact too notorious for earnest denial and in savin" that that man was General Lane, we express at once the character of that Convention, and the results sought to be accomplished. That Lane is ambitious everv one knows, and that his ambition shanes according to the old maxim, that the "end justifies the means," is equally evident, and nowhere has this obsolete principle shown itself in more hideous deformity. In the name of the Republican party the most unblushing frauds were perpetrated. Rewards, and promises of reward, were held out to influence the votes of the delegates for the, favorites of Lane, and the means were successful, so far as the nominations were concerned. Lane was recruiting commissioner; his promise was looked upon as a certainty of commission in one or the other of the new regiments forming; and even the firmest adlierents of the party are forced to acknowledge that in one regiment at least the officers from Colonel down to Chaplain, were appointed from the delegates, genuine, proxy aud bogus, to that Convention.

federal patronage has ever been a lever by which to inHueree the elections in Kansas since the days of the Shawnee Legislature, and the onfy difference manifchtT perhaps, between' now and then, is that' such patronage has been reversed, and is at present in the hands of those who will use it equally unscrupulously, though to a different end. It is used now to perpetuate Lane's power in Kansas, and it has degraded our politics li-yond that of any other State; and when the whole thing has been accomplished, when the ticket nominated by means as unfair as have ever disgraced any age or country has been placed befort the people, the master spirit of that Convention, in feeble imitation of the celebra ily, energetically and summarily punished. All praise to such officers The people left thus free to act, we are assured that the Lane ticket, frcm Carney down, will be overwhelmingly defeated in that county. The free men of Kansas are resolved to wipe out the iast vestige of Lane's hateful despotism, and, by way of demonstrating their hatred of his tyran nous sway, they will defeat every candidate for office who wears his ear-marks. May-God and Liberty cheer them on the interviews, the President frankly explained the enibarr.issniei.ts under whii he inhered.

He spoke freely of the failure of Pope's campaign, and while comiiicntnig upon it, expressed the opinion that much of tiie disaster might have been averted had not twoGtuer-Genemls, having thirty thousand troops, refused or omitted to go to his relief, aud fteod quietly with their divisions unengaged, knowing that Pope's army was at the time being cut to pieces for want of reinforcements. The President, directly or indirectly, gives the names of these generals, and in answer to the question why they had not been proceeded with, explained the military eaieigency which requiied tiie movement of the troops to Frederick, and the consequent postponement of all investigation. The l'ltsid-nt sjxikc of General McClellan's peninsa ar campaign with no :idini.ation, and when asked if there was no other General ho could be selected, frankly expressed the opinion that the army would not tijrht under any other lea-lev. lie stated that he had cSV-rell the Ci.mm:i:d to Gpu. Riuks.

I.ut that officer oeelnied it, and the armv itself demanding McCleilaii, there mi other expedient left than to give McClellari control. The President criticised McClellan's mode cf proceeding with his army his slowness, and the pi ecautions he took in having a full equipment, of tents, provisions, hut said (bat a portion of the army under Pope had run away, and he was foieed to let the army have a commander by whom they would stand. Much more of the like conversation by the President has been repeated to us, but we have given enough to any one know and understand t'aat if the President taiks thus publicly of the manner in which affaiiVju conducted, and, to persons not connected with the Government, lifts the veil which hinds the misfortunes and the government iu the direction ef public affairs. how much greater must be llie-c dir.leuliies aid embarrassments the 1'resi let from a regard for public interest dM not expose or relate.

Great efforts are being made by the Ab olition Republicans of this county, through the press and by individuals, to induce Democrats to vofc against all, or a portion of tho Democratic county ticket. Let no Democrat be deceived by their twaddle find chicanery. Every Democrat who loves his principles and the Constitution of his country, should remember, that the whole Democracy of Kansas are looking to Leavenworth county as the star of their hope. If the integrity of the party be preserved in this county, entire, without blot or blemish on the ticket, we shall become the rallying point for all future movements, having our grand and noble principles, our party organization for their object. Such arc the just hopes and expectations of Democrats from all parts of tho State.

We know this to be so, for such are the hopes universally expressed. There is now a general and profound regret that wc have not a full Democratic State ticket in the field but in the absence of such a ticket, our friends all over the State express the hope that the integrity of the party may be preserved entire and unbroken, in Leavenworth county. Such being the case, shall we disappoint their hopes? we prove recreant to our duty Will any Democrat, in such a time as this, when all tho country is wheeling into line, suffer himself to be deluded, and fail to vote for a single man on the ticket? No; perish the thought. Stand by yonr ticket stand by your candidates; stand by your principle stand by your good old Constitution. Never did your country appeal tj you -to your nolle principles, to your patriotism, to your integrity, to tho hopes centered in your party under circumstances of so deep affliction, trial and trouble.

The whole people, all over the laud, are looking to the Democracy to rescue the country from impelling ruin. It is as clear as light that the Democracy must save us, or final ruin, disaster and overthrow await us all. Is this, then, a time for Democrats to falter? Will you longer listen to the syreu song by which you have been deluded? ('an you bo persuaded to desert your ticket and your standard at such a time? Democrats noble, patriotic men, listen not to tho illusive song of no party," hv which it in sought to delude you. Remember, it was by the action of party that the country is brought to its present perilous condition: the Abolition Republican rjarty has brought all this ruin and disaster: kT Many wonder why Wilder, the Abolition candidatcforCougresB, does not go out among the people. Why does he stay so closely in Leavenworth 5" Perhaps we can illustrate by an anecdote.

A countryman once, having occasion to go to the city Eiarket, with various products of his gSTThe Thnes axhorts its readers to vote for Parrott, in order to defeat Wilder, because Wilder is Line's candidate for Congress. If the Times be really anxious to defeat Lane's candidate, why does it keep Carney's name at the head of its columns, and exclude that of Wagstafl', for Governor Carney is as well known to be Lane's candidate, as Wagstafl is known to be opposed to Lane. Wilder is not more Lane's candidate than is Carney. Our wish is to beat both Wilder and Carney How much does Carney pay the Times for its support Carney 1ms a heap of money and he is Lane's pet candidate; so is Wilder. People! beat them both.

In Jefferson county, of which Mr. Lakin is an old citizen, he is universally popular and will receive the almost unanimous vote of her people.

Considering the utter incompetency of his adversary, tho importance of the ofiice, and the capability of Mr. Lakin, ail men desirous of an honest administration of our financial affairs, regardless of political parties, should vote for David L.

It was only a pretence, however. He is now in a position where he can deceive no one who is not willing to be deceived. He now swallows the platform of the Abolition party, and takes in the nigger, wool and all, at one gulp. Let no Democrat be deceived by his palaver, hereafter. articles they very naturally supposed were for sale.

Seeing the boy in the wagon, one him also. It is therefore with some confidence that we suggest to our neighbor of the Times -whose object seems to be the defeat of the Lane candidates that he unite with us in electing Mat-bias, who i now, and has ever been, Lane's opponent: havi this particular, far higher We are told that it Iris been repoi tci iiei r- by those who were present at the time, itntiu a conversation upon the inevitable MctTeilan. the Secretary of War expressed most forcibly; and that it was stated that Mr. Stanton would have resigned upon McClel-lans re -appointment, had it not bea deemed more advisable by those who wish togeti jd of the General, that Mr. Staiit should remain where he is and await the good time.

The catalogue reveals this their names are there: and the people, sick of such disgusting syeophuncy, turn from the illusive light which gleams over the morass of political ruin and Executive degradation. Audacity! This is a quality in which Lane is not deficient; but it must be supported by others for success. Sheer impudence is a farce which may, to some decree sustain an individual or a party for a lime but this, so far as Lane is concerned, is exhausted, and the veil behind which he has so long shaded his demerits has been withdrawn, and. he stands before the people as he is, the lineaments ugly in deceit, hypocrisy and base cunning beyond what litis ever been imagined.

Jt is said the Topeka is not Lane's ticket. Paltry subterfuge. If not, why were his energies exer-erted, his rewards distributed, with promises of more, in securing its nominations? and why has he been since so prolific in fierce denunciation against the opposition to it The fact is so palpable that even his best paid lackics have never dared to deny it. The contest of November, wiil be Lane's last and greatest effort 10 prop his falling power and influence in the State. If that fails, all fails, and he stands before the country as a defeated demagogue, whom ail the arts known to modern political dablvrij have failed to support in a career unparu'lciled for infamy, sublime iu audacity, and outstripping all competition in falsehood, deceit and hypocrisy.

Under such circumstances what Democrat can vote for cither of them In the Lawrence Republican, of the 23d October, is published a letter from Mr. Wilder, of which the following is a copy Leavenworth, Oct.

I sincerely regret that I cannot be with you on at interesting occasion. I rejoice that the Presiden- has at la-t taken the true ground, though he waited months inger than many us hoped he would. All honor to the nob and grand Proclamation It is rare that any man, in any age, has the power and the patience to achieve the good which the President's proclamation is sure to work out.

I believe at this moment that the democratic and the despotic prin-cip es in our government are in the very crisis of the death-struggle, ono or the other mu-t conquer, and for ever. I have no hesitation in saying that I shall do whatever I can, in whatever place I may occury, towards carving out the great doctrine of Emancipation." With many thanks for vour letter, Ileisrs."

Lowman (Republican) of Douglas. It will be seen that, of the ten candidates, but four are Democrats; while it is notorious that the chief clement from which success was expected, was the Democracy.

Justice would have decreed that the Democrats should have had at least six candidates out of the ten. By putting Mathias in the place of Parrott for Congress, it leaves the ticket with five Democrats and five Republicans; an arrangement which approximates much nearer a just and fair division. But when did Liemocrats ever enter into such a combination that they were not the loosers? How unfortunate that wc have not a full ticket! But, substituting Mathias for Parrott, we suppose, it is now the beat wc can do, under the circumstances. Ashamed cf Kin. of freedom, and ho now sit in their quiet home listening with feverish anxiety lo cttcu the faintest echo from the field of strife, grasp with fear and trembling, the sheet that brings them news of the great victory, and with speechless tongues they pass by the Teats of noble drfriiiir, the deeds of gallant heroism, and search anxiously down the list of "kiiied ana wounded." Ah the cry of anguish that hursts troni their breakit heatts, tells that the death blow has been struck to all their fond hopes, as well as the "icct of slavery." Glorious news But not for the weeping wife, who presses her helpless child to lier you advocate, believe me, would swell Manus' majority to a most triumphant one, and serve as a most signal rebuke to Lane.

Come, neighbor, us act together in so virtuous a cause. It would, at least, be rendering sowte return for the vast amount cf patronage that the Democrats have bestowed upon you. And besides, you would have the pleasing consciousncsss of having performed a virtuous act a source of consolation which must be much needed by one, at whoso door lies so many political and mora' offences. Do a good thing once, neighbor, if only to see how you would feel. False IUtaiar.

A citizen of Jackson county, called at our office yesterday morning, to inquire if it was true that -Mr. Mathias had declined as a candidate for Congress. He said that such a rumor had been circulated in his county. The rumor is false. Mr.

Mathias has not declined nor will he decline. It is evident that his opponents, alarmed at the prospects of his success, have put this rumor in circulation in the hope to deceive the perr-'e. Let tho people be not deceived by r.ny false, reports. Let Democrats stem! to their integrity. From all quarters we have the most encouraging accounts.

Mathias will not only carry the entire Democratic vote of Kansas; but wc arc assured that many, who were formerly Democrats, but who have been led astray by the wiles of abolition, will now return to their first love and vote for Mathias. Our friends never made a greater mistake titan when they failed to nominate a full ticket at Topeka. A full Democratic ticket would sweep the State clean, and leave not an abolition candidate to tell the tale. The people every where arc aroused. Look at the result in Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania.

They see that the country is ruined unless there be a change. People of Kansas! now is the time to strike. The only hope left is to re-instate the old Democracy in power. Under their adminis and it is now by action alone hv the Democratic party thut the country can be saved. It is by the cry of no party" that the Abolition Republic iu party now that their old name has become odious seeks to perpetuate its partv organization and its power.

Set it down as certain, that every man who preaches or howls no is, almost invariably, strong party man; an Abolition Republican. It is because he knows that his party, by its corruptions, its frauds, its rascalities and its shameless abuse of power has lost its hold upon the public confidence, that he now seeks to worm his way into office, by the cry of "no partv." Rut, put him in ofiice. suffer yourself to be deluded by his cant, and when he gets the power he is certain to bo the most bitter and relentless abolition partizan to be fonnd. Wo say, therefore, to our Democratic friends, be not deceived. It is the glory of the Democracy.

that they constitute a party and they are the noblest, the purest, the most exalted and the grandest party that has ever been known in the history of mankind. They have done more for human liberty, more for man, more for humanity, more for civilization, more for popular government, more to elevate and ennoble the great masses than any party that ever existed, in cither ancient or modorn times. It is the party that mado our Constitution; the party that made our country great and prosperous in its hands tho country ever prospered; and it is the only party that can restore our Constitution and Government to that suro and solid foundation of happiness, contentment and peace, of which abolition radicalism, in nn evil day entrusted with power, has despoiled it. Let Democrats, then, stand by their party, their principles, their candidates. Our county ticket is composed of good, capable, faithful, honest Democrats.

We as Democrats nominated it; and shall wc now basely desert and defeat it? Never, never. Your candidates for Senators are good and faithful men your candidates for Reprcscntaves are good and faithful men your candidate for Probate Judge is a good and faithful man; your candidate for Clerk of tho District Court is a good and faithful man. They arc ail good, faithful, competent and true men. Let ua elect them all. The Democrat who falters now should be remembered and marked; Judge Curtis, of Massachusetts, late one of the Judges of the Supreme Court of the United States, and one of tho most learned jurists of the published an elaborate opinion on the subject of President Lincoln's emancipation proclamation, and upon his proclamation suspending the writ of Habeas Corpus.

He demonstrates, by irrefutable authority, and by the clearest and most inexorable logic, thtit both these proclamations are a clear and palpable violation of the Constitu tion, and a most dangerous and alarming invasion of the rights of the people. He denounces them both as bold and alarminc usurpations of power, which stand without justification, palliation or excuse. While his language is temperate, his argument and illustrations are terrible in their force. He shows that it is by tamely submitting to such usurpations and extraordinary stretches of powar, mider the false plea of necessity, that the liberties of free governments, in past ages, have ever been overthrown. The Constitution, he is sufficient for all the purposes of government, both in peace and war, whether in foreign invasion or domestic insurrection, without a resort to these unnecessary usurpations.

The Constitution, beyond all doubt, establishes the most perfect system of government ever devised by man and it is the most perfect for evtry purpose and for ell purposes. It is the most perfect for peace, for war, for rebellion, for secc-esion, for insurrection, for domestic purposes, for foreign purposes. The wise old statesmen who made it, knew what was requisite and they left nothing incomplete. Bunglers, fanatics, demagogues and fools may fail in it execution and administration; but so complete and sublime a government was wily, unscrupulous and depraved, seeking to foist upon the people of Kansas a State ticket selected from his blindest tool. i the spectacle we have before cs to lours truly, A.

C. tv ilder. The Lawrence Journal, which is the peculiar organ of Parrott and the Union ticket, says that Parrott, also, endorses the President's Emancipation proclamation. On this all-important subject there is no difference between the two men. No Democrat who loves the Constitution of his country or has the leas' respect for his time-honored principles, can vote for either of tlese men.

Daniel Webster's Prophecy. A short time before his death, that great man, Daniel Webster, gave utterance to the following prophetic declaration. He died in 1852. Who could have believed that, in so short a time, his nrorihecv ll elected, tne power behind the throne will be Lir greater tiian the throue itself; and the last act of Lane will be worthy his consuinate tact: his ambition will lie "satisfied, for he will be, beyond a peradven- ture, civil Dictator, as he has heretofore been a military ruler beyond the Missouri. We fear not this result, however Lane laav have been regarded as ii.vincible; for corruption in time so apparent and insupportable that the masses must take cognizance of it for their own safety.

For every -bout of victory which we raise, there likewise goes up a wail of airony; and who shall say which will fall first on the ear of the Sovereign Ruler And bile we exult over the glorious news, let us not forget to cheer with our sympathy and kindness the poor, heartbroken victims that are in our very midst, and breathe a prayer to the God of battles that he will strengthen them in their Lour of trouble, and bring them home at last to rest with the loved ones in the land of eternal-peace, to shout for aye the glorious news of Redemption. jt.

The Government Not in Want of Gold dictions. Those great men foresaw the terrible evils to which our country was being led by a wild and reckless fanaticism, Doctor J. II. Watson, the Abolition Republican candidate for Chief Justice of Kansas, made a speech in this city, a few evenings since, and showed himself off in such a way, that all his party friends were ashamed of him. He showed himself to be without any qualifications for this high, important and responsible position.

Doctor Watson he was educated for a doctor is deficient in those legal attainments requisite for such a position, and decidedly deficient in ability. It is a position that requires the highest order of legal learning and talent. Doctor Watson has neith cr. Doctor Watson is only a brawling, abolition partizan. What a contrast between him and Hon.

W. P. Gambeli, of this city, who is a candidate for the same office! Mr. Gambell is both an able lawyer and a man of talent and besides, is of irreproachable character. Watson, after having practiced physic, with, we know not what success, has turned to pettifogging with very indif-erent success.

Doctor Watson is a pettifogger Gambell is a lawyer, a jurist. It is easy to make choice between two such men, for such an office. fesF The Xew Herald, which some time since, thought Seymour ought to withdraw as the Democratic caodid for Governor of New York, now saya that Le.

Pi The Growing Sentiment cf the Army and the People. One of the army correspondents of the Cincinnati Giz e'e, writing from the army of McClelian, on the Potomac, expresses the following as the growing sentiment of our troops "There is one way this war can be settled, and that in short order. Let the soldiers in the army vote on a settlement, and a mode would be proposed that would astonish the natives. It is beginning to be thought, and the belief is quite universal, that this is a mere political war; that a jw in position, and a few who are making money, are delaying and, shifting, nr.d pollyfoxicg to make all they can out of it, and the soldiers are thoroughly disgusted.

Tho Herald says that the change going on in New York in favor of the Democracy and against the National Administration, is immense and overwhelming.
