Let kirn have ooBbk credit for ü Hut while I vai«h tbe Governor and 8sOgatary to wear their blushing honor*, it mty not be suiisa te throw what ficht I can su this rather remarkable s>fair. To suppose that either of these functionaries did it purely for the good that was in it, would be to reader very little respect to their sagacity as pol¬ itician*. Th© Terntorial Executive, in its rebectivc ci aacity, had two principal reasons for this step. In the first place, tbe fraud was not ouly a very brtzeri fraud, but a miserably botched one. Instead of makng a poll-book and having it certified, the bogus evmapirators b- on.lit in a li«t of names longer th IB tbe jx-fl!,.!.<¦ of nil the patriarch* put together. That everybody must know that it was a fraud was bad euonth; but the mutter was worse. It had the moat damning evidence of the fraud oil its face. It was a tupre scarecrow ml uo election return. Hut, if received, it must be kept ou tile. It would be¬ an enduring monument of one of tbe most bare fired pieces of vil'ainy ever p rpetrated on our Ke publican institu ions. To a-k Gov, Walker and Secretary Staut«>n to shoulder this iniquity, in the face of pretests', wts asking too much. This is frankly stated in the proclamations. Tbey say: "We cannot consent in any manner to give the sanction of oar official [tot itksas to sack a tran-a Üoa." It is a gratifying arid consoling refleeti »n th it there is a point beyond which official perversion can- Bot be carried. That point is when the mist ex¬ treme fraud is coupled with e<pnl irregularity. At that point, Qc*. Walker has halted. It will be clear to every one tbat, by giving the certificate in such a case, both Governor and Sei re> tary would have bceu Inl y implicated: but, aj Loth of them are implicated a ready to a tearful extent, it was not to be exported that their downward ca¬ reer would be .irr» sied by that consideration: alone, doing half way and theo stopping in the dirtv work of Slavery would imtprtv: lor the last step, if back¬ ward, would forfeit all tli<- fruits of the former, with¬ out fully restoring the confidence that had been de- striked on the other side. And this bring« me to the vthr riaton. Gov. Walker by this step would have placed himself completely in the power of tlx-* Pro -Slavery party. Whatever be imy think of "our own party," to which he so ingenuously Maars in his proclamation, be think* at least as much of " bis own "sell. Tbe fate of Wilson Shannon k betör© him. He will not relinquish tbe rod of empire. Let BS see. Had the Governor and the Seeretarysw allowed this monster fraud mid given certificates to tbe Pro- Slavery men, the latter would have constituted the Legislature to suit themselves, and would have been independent of Walker. Hu would have disgraced himself so indelibly that be would have DO refuge elsewhere and would be at their mercy. The Con¬ stitutional Convention, before it adjourned, set his wif bes at defiance. All be bad done for them was not sufficient to make them trust him. Hy ruling cmt the fraudulent return from Johnson County, Messrs. Walker and Stanton luve not only saveil their reputation but kept their power. Again: the House as now constituted, will have a Pro-Sin cry minority of more, tbsii one-third. The Governor's Veto power will, therefore, be a potent clement. It will be seen, therefore, tint tbe perpetration of all the other frauds is juet as necessary as tbe preven¬ tion of this. Without those fruuds, the Pro-Slavery tuen would not have that minority fior. WnlUor kss succeeded 111 placing his foot on the first substan- t.al pouer. I have said the language ami general tenor of this proclamation was free from oojeot.on. Iuhia attempted denial that Missouriaus really voted, which is the Joint ¦oat Ofjeil to objection, he admits to one hun¬ ted fraudulent votes directly and a larger number of those who " have cabins 00 tbe reserve iu John- son County, and claiming residence therein, though *. gaVsaayJtj absent," who voted. These latter are the Weatport membera of the Shawnee Association, whose absence has been very general. In thiB offisial document, the Governor admits tome wholesome truths which the u National De- mecracy " will do well H ponder. In the first place, that the bogus 'lernt« rial offieerB have established a ¦art of their government in a part of the Territory not open legally to settlement Secondly, that more than sue-half of the vote really polled there w as fraudulent Thirdly, that the Pro Slavery ofticiils constituting the Uigus Territorial authorities sent in fraudulent returns four times greater than the w hole vote of the county, and sufficient, if allowed, to carry one of the heaviest districts in Kansts; and fourthly, tint these frauds were in gro<s violation of bet us law itself. Here I would merely suggest what the Governor and Secretary have omitted. That tbe frauds in lleGhee County are not a whit behind those of Johiimm, and that the frauds that carried Leaven- worth and MarsbtU, if more regular, are not los« villainous. Tbe whole of that. Pro-Slavery effort forms a complete aud symmetrml die turn, of w hich Johnson County is but a part. Study the part tbe Governor rete. -. Had others told you, you might .ot have believed it. The Governor and Secretary do not heaittite to snake a clean breast about Johu*on County. Tbey well knew that, if they rejected the Ox lord list at all, the oligarchs would accept of uo softening dowo as a compound. With these men, therefore, they knew they could have uo crinlit for the transaction, and they determined that tbey would have it where it could be got. It ia a document that will bring them some credit in the States. It may even blot .at their complicity iu the other election frauds, t'pon the whole, it is a very clever proclamation. Indeed, it ia a gtxid proclamation. Gov. Walker is looking up. THE KESl l.T. Proai Oi.r S|>e< .«' ('<>tT,-.fK>ndetl. Qt iso.tRo, k. T., (h*. 29, l"v>7. For the firat tine, it becomes evident that the I m«>-State party S) ill aurely have a majority of the Legislature. Not that the certificates are yet given, or that the returns, even, are all in, but whoa the anoustroos fraud at Uiford Precinct has been re- yecteeL enough is known to make the election of a Disjority of both Houses secure. Marc-is J. Par- rott's majority will eiceed R,oXKi, and the Legislature will bkely stand, in the Council 4 to 9% and in the House IS ^' v't. For the past ten daya, public opinion baa vibrated between hope and fear. The know n villainy of the Pro Slavery leaders and duplicity of the Federal offi¬ cials enveloped the result in a harassing doubt, snd srvea the tusgnitude of the Free-State tTtajohties was act sufficient to relieve the uncertainty. There assy, ittdeed, be still cause for doubt; but I think Ike lejeetk« of the pretended Oxford vote proves that it is not the design of the officiala, at least, to .secure the victory even now, by auch frauds, with¬ out which it will be iiupoeatble to obtain it. ruder circumstanees the most embarrassing and disegreeeble, the Free-State men bava gone) in to this contest, so much bo that it did not seem a ques- tsoa that majorities could settle. The result has aot, indeed, keen a decision of majorities, for had it truly been so tbe result w ould have been unanimous, where it has been partial. The People staked their bage auajorities in a game where fraud was not leas trage, and have, it would seem, come off victors. It may bo that tbe victory will have no more soli J resslt than its moral eftVet; but that wiQ kfl no less stnkiitg outside of the Territory than it will he ad- im i-!?>.!¦imide »fit.

But hfler all, nothing bot the rejection of tne .John¬ son County (or rather, the Lut'e Salti Fo) tote saved the l 'r*'o-S*atc party. It was tbe bungling bitch-w«»ik of U«ew reluns, not their frainl, which caufed their rejection. The Frte-Sta'e men bad sjpi Iy b*«n able to rave I'omphan County from fraud by tbe skin of their teeth. Lynn County, which tbe Pro-Slavery men thought th**y had, it now appears that tbey have lost. Tbe 1,300 votea from McGhee County (which are jii»t so much bogus) has carried the tbi«e lepreseiitutiv I il tl.. district to which it whs attached; but Sh-iwnee County, which was included in it as a Council Distlict, threw ?>-- Free- S'ate msjority, which proved a niscadculttaOfl o tbe Pro-Slavery men, and saved the t wo Council- bm n. Nothing could appear more contrndict«iry and ab¬ surd than tbe forced return from tbe Oxford Pre¬ cinct. Only a small portion.less than a tenth. vote f«>r the county officers. Tbit the people of any eoaoty would hav e made su*b an omission is not very lk« ly . Then in tbe vote for Congressman there wa« an incoitgruity. Doubtleijs, the labricatora of these re turns bad their own reasons for desiring to kexp an investigation of such vote out of any tribunal save the Legislature itself, thus elected, but tbey did not c<.nut enough OB appearances. Men of ..national reptrtatkiB Hkc Walker and Btanton have no par¬ ticular objection to fraud and political villainy in it¬ self, but then they like to have seme little cover un¬ der which to take cbelter. The Border Rutti ins were not suftieb ntly oom>iderate on them. They w anted tbem to do work so dirty that its tilth would inevitably choke tin m. (,ov. Walker and Secretary BtantOB have both nroved pretty conclusively that Iks v were w illing to do a large amount of dirty work in tbe cause. They have done so rrry much that their rejection even of this Oxford farce gives ground for main ebrewd sjieculitions as to what COttl 1 be their prohibit- motive. True, it was much more ir- r-gular and bare-faced: but why eonJd he who cheated Peter so unbluehingly and Kickapoo make so many sanctimonious grituaces to Paul for the at¬ tempted swindle at Little Santa IV- The jilan of the Pro-Slavery battle was this: To carry Leavenw« rtb, A. h son and Doniphan by f raudulent voting, and the be ivy districts south of Kaw Kiver by fraudulent r«'ttirns. IbLeaveOWOftk, by the active exertions of Qot. Walker iu their laror, tbey succeeded. In AtcLison, ditto; but in Atebisou the task was easier. It reuuired no super¬ human or Gubernatorial effort. The Free-State men bad, indeed a legitimate majority, but so small that it could be overcome by ordinary election swindling, and without the intervention of a fraud so high banded atal bra MB faced as to threaten its own overthrow. In Doniphan County, tbe active exertions of the Free-State men and lien. Lane w ere just sufficient to save it. Mar-ball County came nobly to tbe viudicati >n of Border RamSali SB, for Marysville, wi'h not more than sixteen legiti¬ mate votes, polled 110. Marshall could do little. A paltry representative was all thit could be won by such devotion. Iu Douglas County, the Pro- Slavery men w«-re astonished.

It would bo surely disgraceful fan the end, and might be werse. that is, it might be dang« rous, in tbe htgmning. The vote 01" Oxford was, therefore, thrown out. This righteous official step was taken under cover of an«>ther proclama¬ tion, in which the Governor and Secretary Joined. Having concluded to do it, tbey did it in a manner in which they would be likely to make some capital «lutside of the Territory, for they were shrewd enough to know that, if tbey did it at all, in any shape, it would not bring them much capital with their own party in it.

To make a Consti- tion snd send it up without submitting it to tbe People, would, perhaps, be the best and safes eourse, as tbe present powers that be are suf ficiently wedded to Slavery to adopt even su?a a Constitution. But then tbore must be elections of K nie kind for State Officers. Il the«e are to be carried by (Jerrymandering and swindling, why not Gerrjmander and swindle tbe Constitution through too I It would place both the Con»litut,<.>n and Na¬ tional Democracy in a atronger attitude. But hi re fKTurs another question: Can they.' This list election was to have been carried bv sueb means. The oligarchy hüd almoit done it, luit at the very laet tbe fruit turns to ashes on their lips. There must be »I me hotter guaranty »f success, or the game is not worth playing. Ag iin: their enemies multiply. Tbe six mouths' qualification cut off many who will soon be \ottrs, un ess they limit the matter to the old registry. Even that would not be raits s.tfe, as tbe United States army now oopoeatrttodia Kansas might not be able to keep the election just in tbe hhspe tbty wsuted. Such tire a few of tbe difficul¬ ties that bci-et this Constitutional body. Never did Border Ruffianism need more brains than now .

('< :«| ic e l Tbe N. V. Trlban*. CHAMBKBSBUKG, October '.t', 18Ö7. Our usually quiet village wus aioused on Tuesduy n»t by the report that the Hon. Joseph C McKibbin, M. Ci elect from Califorria, and Uubert P, McKibbin, younger brother, and law s.ndent of this place, had attackid their brother-in-law, Mr. Isaac Craig of 'itteburgb, with revolvers, with the evident determi¬ nation to take bis life at a'l hazard. Tbu facts of the o-e aie eubstantially as folliws: Some years ago Mr. Isaac Craig of Pittsburgh, son of Neville 11. Craig, and editcrof ThePittthurgk Gazette, married a dangbter . f Chambers McKibbin, os«j the roprietor ol lb* Fxcbasge Hotel of that place. Both tun i lea (cccpicd promiLSLt aocial positions, and were taltbyatd highly respected.

Two ears ego be purchased a beau'iful farm a little dik¬ tat ce fiom out town, where he stiends a i>ortion of his irre, aid where part of bit family remain all the time. One of Mr. MtKibbin s daughters, Mary, is both deaf ard dtmb. Every effort U>at wealth and kind LieLtal are could give wiut iaviehtd to atone for the se of Ike facnl'.ies litrded her by nature.

During that vb-tt, it is g il, ard the allegation is -upportcd \ the ut^dav .t the victim BSiaagf ("be even passed the oreea u nation of Oavid Paul Browne, that her own rother-in-law, Mr. Isaac Craig, gedaced her.

Not until she understood that e bad thrown a Bad shadow over her parents and others and si-ters, did the appreciate the villainy of r seducer. \\ hen questioned in relation to tbe ulhcr of her misfortune, she promptly charged it ton ber brother-in-law, Mr. Craig, and followed it With an affidavit detailing thecircuiottances attending ber seduction. Mr. McKibbin and his family, not doubtisg the guilt of Mr. Craig, ortx otded to prosecute bim, aid took Mrs. Craig and ber children four in numberi home again. Sbe baa remained with her ehQdrea separated from her husband ever tines, and has resided in the family mansion near ti. j t for two years past, with ker blighted sister as tier com- narieu. Tee suit is eti.l pending in the Allegheny Court, havirg gons over from term to te*m untifnow. Scon after tbe seduction of Mary .lane McKibbin, one of ber brothers tired once or twioe at Craig in Hfe> burgb, but without effect. Since then n> violence has betn attempted upon Mr. Craig until Tue.-day last, though I do not know that any of the young McKib- bir shave met him in the mean time. Some time laat bummer, two of Mrs. Craig s children (the oldest boy and gill; were playing in one of the rooms of the uoute, where a loaded can was atandiug. ar. 1 the v by some accident tired thegunand lodged tbe ot tent* in the brain of bis sister. Stte was of course killed inrtactly. Sae was a beautiful and intel¬ ligent girl often Summers, and it was a terrible blow to the already worse than widowed mother. Mr. i ra g .. «" sdvised of the death of his child, and came on to C'bairberaburg with bia father to take the body to lltubcrgh for interment. He a-ked, through hta fathtr. for |ermiaiion to see his wife and children, but be war ferbicdea by Mr. McKibbin and hte sons to come to tbe house at tbe perilof his life, though tbey allowed bis three remainirg children to be taken ta> a neigh¬ bor s bouse to spend an honr with him. It was truly a sad tune, for bis youngest two had never beard bis nan e tinco thev were old enough to know what it is to love atd be love 4, and they parted with hits with¬ out knowing that they had been with their father. As great fears were entertained that tha sons of Mr. M Kibbis would take Mr. Ciaig s life, aboeldthey m*et at tbe depot wrere the body of the child was put upon .be cars, Mr. Craig tooa: a orivaps conveyance to Sfcippensbnrsh the evening before, and there took the etat and met bis father, who had the body ia charge. Tbe little boy who had accidentally killed Lta siater waa permitted to accompany his grandfather and father with tbe body of his akter to Pittsburgh, under tbe solemn promise of tbe grandfather that he should not be dt tamed beyond a given time. According la premise, the boy was brought back to this placs by bis father on Iueaday last The boy went out to bn mitber, and tbe other children were sent into Mr. ( a :. s hotel, and permittsd to stay wi'h bim until ha should leave in the return train for Ilarrieburg. In the mean tisne.the Hon. Joe. MeKibbia, from Califor¬ nia, who bappered to be on a visit to bis aisters here, and Hobt. P.

By a card in The National Imießigvtutr 1 promptly replied that I was morally certain Mr. T. had not paid a cent, in the way of a bribe, to anybody whatever in Meiieo, and 1 solemnly added that I watt p* lconally totally ignorant of any bribe of auy s >rr. whatever, great or small, beiag paid to that high funct.onary Santa Anuuj, or to any other, directly or indirectly, for his uro and benefit, by or on account of any American cfiiceror agent, civil or military. M^ denial Gen. I'illow calls 'in a rejoinder) "evasive.' " a mere ((nibble, and he affects to support his first assertion by extracts from " the sworn etatements of " Generals On t:. at. and Shields, which he says, he has " procured from the record of the War Depart- M went.'' Entertaining for those Generals (Q. and B>] high ad- miratitnaud respect, I was in haute.not that there was anything u ate rial in the extra; ts to learn frem the W ar Department the character of the (to me) un¬ known " PSCSSd quoted by Geo.

Suflice it to say, in this counect-on, that neither of the statements produced by Gen. Pillow, with so much gravity, contradicts me in the least on the only point in question, viz., the *IU00O bribe; lor neither ot tbo.je ilecc-tals pretend to know to wkota the biibe waa paid, nor did any other American ever bear me whisper the name or names of the receivers, un'il confidentially fbelated 08 the final scHlement, at the War Office, of my secret disbursements.

Gen.

Pi low's case (as ai- wayaj, be was tot only present, but had the privilege of objecting to members, and I should have challenged the entire panel; and the Court proceeded to take ev¬ idence, beginning with that of Gen. Pillow I aleo m my absence, whereas the law "Jlst article of war) ex¬ pressly dtclares that the accrued shall " be permitted to cioss-examixe and interrogate the witoe-^ee." Final y when called before tbe bastard tribunal, I trade my protest, and had nothing more to do with it and bad ruppe>ed, until Gen. Pillow recently pub- lieOed the statementa of two honorable generai- 'tyult- man aid Shield*, that all the parties connected with iLu investigation bad become ashamed of their con¬ duct and had i.no report, as there was no publi¬ cation of their peooeodiegs. Nevertheless, the mquost .'ot i d no allegation against me aupported. Tbe next article of war tbe Ktimt the same »tatut>) declares, "aa Courts of Inquiry may be perverted to " dieht>norab!e purposes, and may be i.-idered as " engines ot destruction to military ment in tbe bands '. of weak and envious commandants, they are hereby " prohibited, unless directed by the President of the " I'nited S»aUs or demanded by the accused."

The result then ia, that an aibitrHry fudi has been fixed as tbe valae uf thea ferries, which every one knowing anythirg ataUsj | the nature and productive capacity of the ptopertt, knew t..i.e euliiely extravagant.

It is for such a purpose that the citizens of Brost« lya are paying a rate of fare entirely beyond waste necessary for tt e support of the terries aad rasest a time when the resources of moat familtea are curtailed loan extent making the atricteet economy iediaaaaa- able. II. It Isc'aimed tbat comniutatton sho aid be restored, I'ntil this gigantic spet-ulatioo waa got up by the Uaka Ferry Company, it nas been the practice oe all of the Fast Kiver Ferries, from tha time that statu ferry- boats bave been used, to grant to all the croaeara at tbe ferries commutation at tbe rate ef $10 aaeanlly. with a considerable deauction in favor of females sad boys. Cnder the present rate, if we suppose a man to crcis twice in the day to New- York.which is tha ease with large numbers.it would make, eiciudisg Sundays, |".'5 a yeur. And even if he dues not cross as often as tbat daily, yet the calls of bjsiseas at particular fimea make It ueceasary to go oven rose frequently. Tbe present reguatioals especially sajaat to females and lada wbo are employed in New-York, and whcee scanty earning* can illaffjrdto bear this tax. None are exempt from the two cents ferriago except boya and girls under the ag* of Vi rears. (Joe would bave suppt sed that the etgtrness of tha Company la speculate upon public necessities would at least nave been mitigated fn favor of this large and belpleaa . ;«aj of the community, and that they would voluntarily have al'owed to females and to apprentices aod otflof boys a commutation at a leas rate. The utter abaeaoe of any provieicn such as would bave been dictated by common humanity is a decisive proof what reason ws have to expect from the Company any action beneficial to the public interest of their own mere montan. The present course is als*» the more aggravatiag because it ia uot tbe exercise of an aneispated. legal tight, but is a direct open violation of one of the eove* nanta in tbe leases frot-.i the Coiporatioa of New Yeik under wbicb they hold. I will not arg.is the qaeatJoa, for I have never heard an iMimatiuo from any one that it ia not an evasion of tbe spirit and intent of the leases. And as to the legal right it might, as has boss publicly charged, have neon settled long since by a sWieioa of the Courts, but for the dilatory expedients of tbo Company. III. It is li-isted that under tbe circurjrwtaaeesI have biatiy adverted to tbe Company ought not to be left in possession of any arbitrary power. Whatever may be said as to tha present rale of ferriage, it U as* eiL.al. that some discrimination ia called for. The pcor and industriousclaee are t-ritiiledto riineideretioa, and all classes of tbe community have the righ' to ds- rxsrC eommutatioo. Indeed, it bas been hitherto us- heaxd of on railroads and ferries that it should be re¬ futed. V\ by is it that tlia Company havs so etreauoaal* re¬ sisted tbe paksage of a law for the regalatioo of far- rise.' Why ia it tbey axe bow in the belt oppAtatae; with all their Lr fluence the election of those candi- datt- to the Legislature who have beea known to be in favor of such a law ? If they are reaHy eafi-ned, as Ihey profsrs to be, with euch probte aa the |*io/-'P<e stateo in tbe first proposition would allow, and if U»e whole argument privately used by Ürain »od tbeir friotds is not'hollow pretense, a mere subterfuge, why not agree to a law embracing what tawy *sy tbey are wüiirg to oraoeaa t but no, it is aot for a trittaag nil- ference between them and oor citizens that they eoajst make auch an array of farce a last Wint.. at .vJbaay ia oppo sitioa to any action of tlie I^egialaturs, aad that we find so oiaxy now busy to defeat certain candidates at this election.

Hut while I vai«h tbe Governor and 8sOgatary towear their blushing honor*, it mty not be suiisa tethrow what ficht I can su this rather remarkables>fair. To suppose that either of these functionariesdid it purely for the good that was in it, would beto reader very little respect to their sagacity as pol¬itician*.Th© Terntorial Executive, in its rebectivc ci

aacity, had two principal reasons for this step. Inthe first place, tbe fraud was not ouly a very brtzerifraud, but a miserably botched one. Instead ofmakng a poll-book and having it certified, the bogusevmapirators b- on.lit in a li«t of names longer th IBtbe jx-fl!,.!.<¦ of nil the patriarch* put together. Thateverybody must know that it was a fraud was badeuonth; but the mutter was worse. It had themoat damning evidence of the fraud oil its face. Itwas a tupre scarecrow ml uo election return. Hut,if received, it must be kept ou tile. It would be¬an enduring monument of one of tbe most barefired pieces of vil'ainy ever p rpetrated on our Kepublican institu ions. To a-k Gov, Walker andSecretary Staut«>n to shoulder this iniquity, in theface of pretests', wts asking too much. This isfrankly stated in the proclamations. Tbey say:"We cannot consent in any manner to give the

sanction of oar official [tot itksas to sack a tran-a Üoa."It is a gratifying arid consoling refleeti »n th it

there is a point beyond which official perversion can-Bot be carried. That point is when the mist ex¬treme fraud is coupled with e<pnl irregularity. Atthat point, Qc*. Walker has halted.

It will be clear to every one tbat, by giving thecertificate in such a case, both Governor and Sei re>tary would have bceu Inl y implicated: but, aj Lothof them are implicated a ready to a tearful extent,it was not to be exported that their downward ca¬reer would be .irr» sied by that consideration: alone,doing half way and theo stopping in the dirtv workof Slavery would imtprtv: lor the last step, if back¬ward, would forfeit all tli<- fruits of the former, with¬out fully restoring the confidence that had been de-striked on the other side. And this bring« me tothe vthr riaton. Gov. Walker by this step wouldhave placed himself completely in the power of tlx-*Pro -Slavery party. Whatever be imy think of "ourown party," to which he so ingenuously Maars in hisproclamation, be think* at least as much of " bisown "sell. Tbe fate of Wilson Shannon k betör© him.He will not relinquish tbe rod of empire. Let BS see.Had the Governor and the Seeretarysw allowed this

monster fraud mid given certificates to tbe Pro-Slavery men, the latter would have constituted theLegislature to suit themselves, and would have beenindependent of Walker. Hu would have disgracedhimself so indelibly that be would have DO refugeelsewhere and would be at their mercy. The Con¬stitutional Convention, before it adjourned, set hiswif bes at defiance. All be bad done for them wasnot sufficient to make them trust him. Hy rulingcmt the fraudulent return from Johnson County,Messrs. Walker and Stanton luve not only saveiltheir reputation but kept their power. Again: theHouse as now constituted, will have a Pro-Sin cryminority of more, tbsii one-third. The Governor'sVeto power will, therefore, be a potent clement. Itwill be seen, therefore, tint tbe perpetration of allthe other frauds is juet as necessary as tbe preven¬tion of this. Without those fruuds, the Pro-Slaverytuen would not have that minority fior. WnlUorkss succeeded 111 placing his foot on the first substan-t.al pouer.

I have said the language ami general tenor of thisproclamation was free from oojeot.on. Iuhia attempteddenial that Missouriaus really voted, which is theJoint ¦oat Ofjeil to objection, he admits to one hun¬ted fraudulent votes directly and a larger number

of those who " have cabins 00 tbe reserve iu John-son County, and claiming residence therein, though

*. gaVsaayJtj absent," who voted. These latter are

the Weatport membera of the Shawnee Association,whose absence has been very general.In thiB offisial document, the Governor admits

tome wholesome truths which the u National De-mecracy " will do well H ponder. In the first place,that the bogus 'lernt« rial offieerB have established a

¦art of their government in a part of the Territorynot open legally to settlement Secondly, that more

than sue-half of the vote really polled there w as

fraudulent Thirdly, that the Pro Slavery ofticiilsconstituting the Uigus Territorial authorities sent infraudulent returns four times greater than the w holevote of the county, and sufficient, if allowed, tocarry one of the heaviest districts in Kansts; andfourthly, tint these frauds were in gro<s violation ofbet us law itself.Here I would merely suggest what the Governor

and Secretary have omitted. That tbe frauds in

lleGhee County are not a whit behind those ofJohiimm, and that the frauds that carried Leaven-worth and MarsbtU, if more regular, are not los«villainous. Tbe whole of that. Pro-Slavery effortforms a complete aud symmetrml die turn, of w hichJohnson County is but a part. Study the part tbeGovernor rete. -. Had others told you, you might.ot have believed it.The Governor and Secretary do not heaittite to

snake a clean breast about Johu*on County. Tbeywell knew that, if they rejected the Ox lord list at all,the oligarchs would accept of uo softening dowo as

a compound. With these men, therefore, theyknew they could have uo crinlit for the transaction,and they determined that tbey would have it whereit could be got. It ia a document that will bringthem some credit in the States. It may even blot.at their complicity iu the other election frauds,t'pon the whole, it is a very clever proclamation.Indeed, it ia a gtxid proclamation. Gov. Walker islooking up.

THE KESl l.T.Proai Oi.r S|>e< .«' ('<>tT,-.fK>ndetl.

Qt iso.tRo, k. T., (h*. 29, l"v>7.For the firat tine, it becomes evident that the

I m«>-State party S) ill aurely have a majority of theLegislature. Not that the certificates are yet given,or that the returns, even, are all in, but whoa theanoustroos fraud at Uiford Precinct has been re-

yecteeL enough is known to make the election of a

Disjority of both Houses secure. Marc-is J. Par-rott's majority will eiceed R,oXKi, and the Legislaturewill bkely stand, in the Council 4 to 9% and in theHouse IS ^' v't.For the past ten daya, public opinion baa vibrated

between hope and fear. The know n villainy of thePro Slavery leaders and duplicity of the Federal offi¬cials enveloped the result in a harassing doubt, sndsrvea the tusgnitude of the Free-State tTtajohtieswas act sufficient to relieve the uncertainty. Thereassy, ittdeed, be still cause for doubt; but I thinkIke lejeetk« of the pretended Oxford vote provesthat it is not the design of the officiala, at least, to.secure the victory even now, by auch frauds, with¬out which it will be iiupoeatble to obtain it.

ruder circumstanees the most embarrassing anddisegreeeble, the Free-State men bava gone) in tothis contest, so much bo that it did not seem a ques-tsoa that majorities could settle. The result hasaot, indeed, keen a decision of majorities, for had ittruly been so tbe result w ould have been unanimous,where it has been partial. The People staked theirbage auajorities in a game where fraud was not leastrage, and have, it would seem, come off victors.It may bo that tbe victory will have no more soliJresslt than its moral eftVet; but that wiQ kfl no lessstnkiitg outside of the Territory than it will he ad-

It was tbe bunglingbitch-w«»ik of U«ew reluns, not their frainl, whichcaufed their rejection. The Frte-Sta'e men bad

sjpi Iy b*«n able to rave I'omphan County from fraudby tbe skin of their teeth. Lynn County, which tbePro-Slavery men thought th**y had, it now appearsthat tbey have lost. Tbe 1,300 votea from McGheeCounty (which are jii»t so much bogus) has carriedthe tbi«e lepreseiitutiv I il tl.. district to which itwhs attached; but Sh-iwnee County, which was

included in it as a Council Distlict, threw ?>-- Free-S'ate msjority, which proved a niscadculttaOfl o

Nothing could appear more contrndict«iry and ab¬surd than tbe forced return from tbe Oxford Pre¬cinct. Only a small portion.less than a tenth.vote f«>r the county officers. Tbit the people of anyeoaoty would hav e made su*b an omission is not verylk« ly . Then in tbe vote for Congressman there wa« an

incoitgruity. Doubtleijs, the labricatora of these returns bad their own reasons for desiring to kexp an

investigation of such vote out of any tribunal savethe Legislature itself, thus elected, but tbey did notc<.nut enough OB appearances. Men of ..nationalreptrtatkiB Hkc Walker and Btanton have no par¬ticular objection to fraud and political villainy in it¬self, but then they like to have seme little cover un¬der which to take cbelter. The Border Rutti ins

were not suftieb ntly oom>iderate on them. Theyw anted tbem to do work so dirty that its tilth wouldinevitably choke tin m. (,ov. Walker and SecretaryBtantOB have both nroved pretty conclusively thatIks v were w illing to do a large amount of dirty workin tbe cause. They have done so rrry much thattheir rejection even of this Oxford farce gives groundfor main ebrewd sjieculitions as to what COttl 1 betheir prohibit- motive.

Walker iu theirlaror, tbey succeeded. In AtcLison, ditto; but inAtebisou the task was easier. It reuuired no super¬human or Gubernatorial effort. The Free-Statemen bad, indeed a legitimate majority, but so smallthat it could be overcome by ordinary electionswindling, and without the intervention of a fraudso high banded atal braMB faced as to threaten itsown overthrow. In Doniphan County, tbe activeexertions of the Free-State men and lien. Lane w ere

just sufficient to save it. Mar-ball County came

nobly to tbe viudicati >n of Border RamSaliSB,for Marysville, wi'h not more than sixteen legiti¬mate votes, polled 110. Marshall could do little.A paltry representative was all thit could be won

tion assembled at T.eeompton has made snail pro¬gress ha business. The firstthree dsys saw them wait¬ing for a qutrum, and wrangling and so'ding abouteh ctirn returne. I expect to be with that augaa

body ere it makes material progress in the some

wbat difficult task before it. Tbe resentment feltagainst fior. Walker for bis late proclamation ba«not yet been softened sufficiently t" admit of anyGubernatorial maneu\erings with that body. Th*

question is, what will they do ? To make a Consti-tion snd send it up without submitting it to

tbe People, would, perhaps, be the best and safeseourse, as tbe present powers that be are sufficiently wedded to Slavery to adopt even su?a a

Constitution. But then tbore must be elections ofK nie kind for State Officers. Il the«e are to becarried by (Jerrymandering and swindling, why notGerrjmander and swindle tbe Constitution throughtoo I It would place both the Con»litut,<.>n and Na¬tional Democracy in a atronger attitude. But hi re

fKTurs another question: Can they.' This listelection was to have been carried bv sueb means.

The oligarchy hüd almoit done it, luit at the verylaet tbe fruit turns to ashes on their lips. There mustbe »I me hotter guaranty »f success, or the game isnot worth playing. Ag iin: their enemies multiply.Tbe six mouths' qualification cut off many who willsoon be \ottrs, un ess they limit the matter to theold registry. Even that would not be raits s.tfe, as

tbe United States army now oopoeatrttodia Kansasmight not be able to keep the election just in tbehhspe tbty wsuted. Such tire a few of tbe difficul¬ties that bci-et this Constitutional body. Never didBorder Ruffianism need more brains than now . Inthis strait, conies Walker's overtures to them Trustto my dictation, and I will show you how to getthrough. But they are not very sure whether ihtyshould trust bim. A lew days will atetOTaulno.

'Ibe Free-St ite Convention held last MoodajilLeeempteii .vus e good thing and significant of thetimes, Havirg proved their majority, their right to

dictate, it w.is proper that the Fl00Btale men

ehou!<l tin re convene, and tell that Convention toadjourn, and that tbey mutt not presume to make a

Constitution ti r Komas.Judge Schilyler was tbe President*of tbe Cjn-

vpntion and Messrs. Realf and Learned, Secret «.

ries. G< n. Lane was the principal speaker. He isallowed to Lave nude oue of hi* very beet apeochea.In tbe close of hi* remarks, he urged the Freo-Statomen to maintain their volunteer military wrgani/a-tion. and not to allow it to be destroyed untU success

bad crowned their labors in the Free State cause.

Gen. McLean «od Cid. Young, two Pro Slaverymen, spoke. A Mr. Stewart, member of the Con¬stitutional Convention, attempted to demonstratethat be was not a citizen of Missouri. These sp»>ik-i ra larfcsl that they would make a State Constitutionand tbut the Convention would not abate of its labors. The Convention passed resolutions, which Isubjoin. A ratification meeting was held in Law¬rence in the evening. Tbe Committee that framedtbe resolutions passed at Locompton, ami reportedthem, was Messrs. Wni. Hutchinson, E. B. Whit¬man, G. S. Warren, (i. W. Diet/ler, J. B. Abbot,C. E. Learned and Dr. J. 1*. Root. Tbe vsolu-tions wore adopted, as follows :

THE M KILMX AND CRAIG AFFAIR.

CHAMBKBSBUKG, October '.t', 18Ö7.Our usually quiet village wus aioused on Tuesduy

n»t by the report that the Hon. Joseph C McKibbin,M. Ci elect from Califorria, and Uubert P, McKibbin,younger brother, and law s.ndent of this place, had

attackid their brother-in-law, Mr. Isaac Craig of'itteburgb, with revolvers, with the evident determi¬

nation to take bis life at a'l hazard. Tbu facts of theo-e aie eubstantially as folliws:Some years ago Mr. Isaac Craig of Pittsburgh, son of

Neville 11. Craig, and editcrof ThePittthurgk Gazette,married a dangbter . f Chambers McKibbin, os«j theroprietor ol lb* Fxcbasge Hotel of that place. Both

ulhcr of her misfortune, she promptly charged itton ber brother-in-law, Mr. Craig, and followed it

With an affidavit detailing thecircuiottances attendingber seduction. Mr. McKibbin and his family, not

doubtisg the guilt of Mr. Craig, ortx otded to prosecutebim, aid took Mrs. Craig and ber children four in

numberi home again. Sbe baa remained with herehQdrea separated from her husband ever tines, andhas resided in the family mansion near ti. j t fortwo years past, with ker blighted sister as tier com-

narieu. Tee suit is eti.l pending in the AlleghenyCourt, havirg gons over from term to te*m untifnow.Scon after tbe seduction of Mary .lane McKibbin, one

of ber brothers tired once or twioe at Craig in Hfe>burgb, but without effect. Since then n> violence hasbetn attempted upon Mr. Craig until Tue.-day last,though I do not know that any of the young McKib-bir shave met him in the mean time.Some time laat bummer, two of Mrs. Craig s children

(the oldest boy and gill; were playing in one of therooms of the uoute, where a loaded can was atandiug.ar. 1 the v by some accident tired thegunand lodgedtbe ot tent* in the brain of bis sister. Stte was ofcourse killed inrtactly. Sae was a beautiful and intel¬ligent girl often Summers, and it was a terrible blowto the already worse than widowed mother. Mr.i ra g .. «" sdvised of the death of his child, and came

on to C'bairberaburg with bia father to take the bodyto lltubcrgh for interment. He a-ked, through htafathtr. for |ermiaiion to see his wife and children, butbe war ferbicdea by Mr. McKibbin and hte sons to come

to tbe house at tbe perilof his life, though tbey allowedbis three remainirg children to be taken ta> a neigh¬bor s bouse to spend an honr with him. It was trulya sad tune, for bis youngest two had never beard bisnan e tinco thev were old enough to know what it isto love atd be love 4, and they parted with hits with¬out knowing that they had been with their father.As great fears were entertained that tha sons of Mr.M Kibbis would take Mr. Ciaig s life, aboeldthey m*etat tbe depot wrere the body of the child was put upon.be cars, Mr. Craig tooa: a orivaps conveyance to

Sfcippensbnrsh the evening before, and there took theetat and met bis father, who had the body ia charge.Tbe little boy who had accidentally killed Lta siater

waa permitted to accompany his grandfather and fatherwith tbe body of his akter to Pittsburgh, under tbesolemn promise of tbe grandfather that he should not

be dt tamed beyond a given time. According lapremise, the boy was brought back to this placs bybis father on Iueaday last The boy went out to bnmitber, and tbe other children were sent into Mr.( a :. s hotel, and permittsd to stay wi'h bim until hashould leave in the return train for Ilarrieburg.

THE PILLOW CASE.

In a recent political address (>en. Finow chargedthat Mr. Tris*. with my assistance, bad, in Mexico,admini-'ered a bribe to President or General Santa

Ania, Ac. By a card in The National Imießigvtutr1 promptly replied that I was morally certain Mr. T.had not paid a cent, in the way of a bribe, to anybodywhatever in Meiieo, and 1 solemnly added that I watt

p* lconally totally ignorant of any bribe of auy s >rr.

whatever, great or small, beiag paid to that highfunct.onary Santa Anuuj, or to any other, directly or

indirectly, for his uro and benefit, by or on account ofany American cfiiceror agent, civil or military. M^denial Gen. I'illow calls 'in a rejoinder) "evasive.'" a mere ((nibble, and he affects to support his firstassertion by extracts from " the sworn etatements of" Generals On t:. at. and Shields, which he says, hehas " procured from the record of the War Depart-M went.''Entertaining for those Generals (Q. and B>] high ad-

miratitnaud respect, I was in haute.not that therewas anything u ate rial in the extra; ts to learn fremthe W ar Department the character of the (to me) un¬known " PSCSSd quoted by Geo. Pillow. I have butnow received a copy of the document, ami in eoino ofits other aspects it shall, presently, receive a pasaingnotice. Suflice it to say, in this counect-on, thatneither of the statements produced by Gen. Pillow,with so much gravity, contradicts me in the least on

the only point in question, viz., the *IU00O bribe; lorneither ot tbo.je ilecc-tals pretend to know to wkotathe biibe waa paid, nor did any other American ever

bear me whisper the name or names of the receivers,un'il confidentially fbelated 08 the final scHlement, atthe War Office, of my secret disbursements.

It is true thatnasirs bad teen eupra-eeacd by me in the writtenitems; but many entries were rendered, and nowetned so published in this manner: " Paid meesengsrM of the Consul, $50;" " Paid an Englishman tj re-"pert violations of the armistice, t90Oj" "Paid a"member of tbe municipality. $ln;» 00," An.,Sec, &.c.Already, in consequence of this publication, livehighly respectable residents of .Mexico.utterly guilt¬less of bribery, but liable to suspicion under thosedcsignaticne--bave, through a distinguished channel,made application to nie for exoneration.Gen. Pillow speaks feelingly of " the great and pa-

" triotic statesman who was in IM6J Chief Magistrate"of the nation,'' bis some time law partier, who hidmade him a Mejor-General; the same who, early in thewar, xent for me and in the kindest and moat beseech-ixg n acner solicited my personal sympathy a* well as

professional aid in conquering a peace, promising mehis entire cothdenoe and support the same who, be¬fore 1 bad reached Mexico, endeavored, first, to uo-

point a Lieutenant General to supersede ne: and,fuilicg in that, next mought of placing me ucde(.tbesnn.e ]arfy, appointed a Major-General 'and of course;myjunior i the same who, it turns out. appointed Gen.Pillow a spy on the conduct of .Mr. Trist and mys. ltand the ssmo " great and patriotic Htateeman who,having failed in nearly every promire bo had made me,fine hr, wh« a the war had been ended, released froma:ree't three r riict ra who bad beeu engaged in a con¬spiracy sga'net me, reetored them, withbonor,todn'y;superseded n <. in tbe command of the arm v iu Mexico;and ei de red three conspirators and myself equally be¬fore nComtof Inquiry ' It so happened that onlyGtn. Pillow's conduct was directly inveetigate.d byttat Oi.it. but it- eame three members were confiden¬tially irsirur ted from Waebington. no doubt at the m-s#orce of the spy.to organize themselves into a newCourt of Inquiry to inventigate eecretlv that part ofny conduct relating to tbe c< uccii of war hild July17, 1847, at Puebla, for tbe purpowe, as alleged, ofpurcbar.rg a pta-. , and wbi-h council figutee solnr^tly in Gen. Pulow s recent publications.

1 Lis Court had every characteristic of a secrst is-<|U!.<:tion; it met under confidential instructions; itwas recrgamztd in my ahence and without mykit avtsdga I whereas, in Gen. Pi low's case (as ai-wayaj, be was tot only present, but had the privilegeof objecting to members, and I should have challengedthe entire panel; and the Court proceeded to take ev¬

idence, beginning with that of Gen. Pillow I aleo mmy absence, whereas the law "Jlst article of war) ex¬

pressly dtclares that the accrued shall " be permittedto cioss-examixe and interrogate the witoe-^ee."

Final y when called before tbe bastard tribunal, Itrade my protest, and had nothing more to do with itand bad ruppe>ed, until Gen. Pillow recently pub-lieOed the statementa of two honorable generai- 'tyult-man aid Shield*, that all the parties connected withiLu investigation bad become ashamed of their con¬duct and had i.no report, as there was no publi¬cation of their peooeodiegs. Nevertheless, the mquost.'ot i d no allegation against me aupported.Tbe next article of war tbe Ktimt the same »tatut>)

declares, "aa Courts of Inquiry may be perverted to" dieht>norab!e purposes, and may be i.-idered as" engines ot destruction to military ment in tbe bands'. of weak and envious commandants, they are hereby" prohibited, unless directed by the President of the" I'nited S»aUs or demanded by the accused." Littledid the law-maker imagine that even a Präsident mightprove himaelf one of tbat class of comojaaders tA word more. Two members of that famous Court

were brevtted.one a Major Oeueral, without othercorncction with the Mexican war: and the other a

II. It Isc'aimed tbat comniutatton sho aid be restored,I'ntil this gigantic spet-ulatioo waa got up by the UakaFerry Company, it nas been the practice oe all of theFast Kiver Ferries, from tha time that statu ferry-boats bave been used, to grant to all the croaeara attbe ferries commutation at tbe rate ef $10 aaeanlly.with a considerable deauction in favor of females sadboys. Cnder the present rate, if we suppose a manto crcis twice in the day to New- York.which is thaease with large numbers.it would make, eiciudisgSundays, |".'5 a yeur. And even if he dues not crossas often as tbat daily, yet the calls of bjsiseasat particular fimea make It ueceasary to go oven rose

frequently. Tbe present reguatioals especially sajaatto females and lada wbo are employed in New-York,and whcee scanty earning* can illaffjrdto bear this tax.None are exempt from the two cents ferriago exceptboya and girls under the ag* of Vi rears. (Joe wouldbave suppt sed that the etgtrness of tha Company laspeculate upon public necessities would at least navebeen mitigated fn favor of this large and belpleaa . ;«ajof the community, and that they would voluntarilyhave al'owed to females and to apprentices aod otflofboys a commutation at a leas rate. The utter abaeaoeof any provieicn such as would bave been dictated bycommon humanity is a decisive proof what reason wshave to expect from the Company any action beneficialto the public interest of their own mere montan.The present course is als*» the more aggravatiag

because it ia uot tbe exercise of an aneispated. legaltight, but is a direct open violation of one of the eove*nanta in tbe leases frot-.i the Coiporatioa of New Yeikunder wbicb they hold. I will not arg.is the qaeatJoa,for I have never heard an iMimatiuo from any one thatit ia not an evasion of tbe spirit and intent of theleases. And as to the legal right it might, as has bosspublicly charged, have neon settled long since by asWieioa of the Courts, but for the dilatory expedientsof tbo Company.III. It is li-isted that under tbe circurjrwtaaeesIhave biatiy adverted to tbe Company ought not to beleft in possession of any arbitrary power. Whatevermay be said as to tha present rale of ferriage, it U as*eiL.al. that some discrimination ia called for. Thepcor and industriousclaee are t-ritiiledto riineideretioa,and all classes of tbe community have the righ' to ds-rxsrC eommutatioo. Indeed, it bas been hitherto us-

heaxd of on railroads and ferries that it should be re¬futed.

V\ by is it that tlia Company havs so etreauoaal* re¬sisted tbe paksage of a law for the regalatioo of far-rise.' Why ia it tbey axe bow in the belt oppAtatae;with all their Lr fluence the election of those candi-datt- to the Legislature who have beea known to bein favor of such a law ? If they are reaHy eafi-ned,as Ihey profsrs to be, with euch probte aa the |*io/-'P<estateo in tbe first proposition would allow, and if U»e

whole argument privately used by Ürain »od tbeirfriotds is not'hollow pretense, a mere subterfuge, whynot agree to a law embracing what tawy *sy tbey are

wüiirg to oraoeaa t but no, it is aot for a trittaag nil-ference between them and oor citizens that they eoajstmake auch an array of farce a last Wint.. at .vJbaay ia

oppo sitioa to any action of tlie I^egialaturs, aad thatwe find so oiaxy now busy to defeat certain candidatesat this election.

IV. If tbe Company ore willing 10 make this thesols issue at the pieaent electiou, onrcitiseue wbo havefskca an interest in the metier are ealled apea to dotbe same thug.
