FOR PRESIDENT JAMES BUCHANAN, Of PennsylTanla. FOR VICE PRESIDENT, J. C. of ILeutuclty. FOU J.

W. WHITFIELD, County Convention. Saturday next, be it remembered, is the tJay for, the meeting "of the delegates Ml FleaeaDt; and a full "attendance is of the utmost importanoe, for much depend uj-on the nominations there laade. It is morally certain that the Abolition party will be torgelyrepresented in the. next legislature," and it behooves us to select rueu who will stand firm to their party, and not yield one inch to the" arroganc Hom Again.

After a campaign of over four weeks in tVe Territory, wheo we have been sub-jret to tne ardurous duties ol a soldier's iu'e, we have returned to our home tore rurne our long" neglected business In a wrd, we will say that the difficulties ore not. yet adjusted, and peace is farther from us than at any other Jbrmer period. We may for a few weeks be permitted to pursue our avocations, but we are as certain of again being called upon to take up arms a gain the marandiog forces of Lane who hare publicly declared their design in coming to Kansas was to- plunder. and murder members of the pro-alavery terty. They are bold in their assertions.

at making Kansas a Free State is a secondary consideration. Plunder, the i-ravinz of all banditti, seems to be the rrinciole motive that induces Lane's forces A rxn nrl isolation over this furfJim. j. Territory. We are still of the opinion that the two partita cannot exist in thi Territory.

As lone; as the. experiment is being tried, we will be in constant ani civil war in Kansas is inevitable. We eare not how many treaties may be made with these traitors, by men in whoi may prostitute their office, as long as we can raise a hand to striiw, our aim will to rid this Territory of a set of scoun drel whose presence would dishonor the infernal retrion. We hope out friends ki this portion of Kansas who have Beer aabieet to many "insults and injuries from these Northern, harpies, will' no longer suf e. in their midst.

1 rea irr liir ua them as you would the midnight assassin, for they are less and whenever they are seen with arms ia their' hands, lettb iVftMf riflha the only salutation' thev receive from you. Do this, and we that win once peace and quietness, we enjoyed before the Territory was overrun with mes nonae.u marauders. Plunder tha Order of the Bay. rronTsTrTrai of 'the" prisoners take during the exigence ol tr.e uw uuu.u in Kansas, we learn thatXane agrees to peyf his.banditti eight, dollars per month, and allows them to have all property thev can steal from the pro-slavery party in Kansas. This very liberal offer has 1 been secret of the congregation of such a large forc in this Territory, whose ac- tiona the past feW weeks, lay in! the shade the achievements of Jack Sheppard and noted highwayman DavaU.

We ar? told that in the tenta of the traitors at Law-rence can be aeeh any quantity of stolen property, taken from the different pi tJavery stores in the Territory. Many o. Lane'a men having acqoifed as much prep- rtr aa they desired, have returned with their itl-eotten eaina to xheif Northern -komea, while many others' arow their in-tntiou of returning, home oon at their avaricious desires are satisfied.

From the Jfational Kani Committee down to trie" veriest bigot in the fanatical rauks of Abolitionism, it is conceded that the beginning of the recent distuibances was with the free dirt party of the INortb. To promote the cause of their Presidential nominee, they plunged this erritory inw a short but disastrous civil war.

Muhona of dollars Lave been realized on the score of Free JLansas, portions oi been appropriated to election schemes and scheinersia the States, anq.ime.reiu i to the prosecution of their nefarious designs in Kansas Ilyre has been the arena on which have been enacted scenes whereon the vitality of the "freedom shrickers" has depended. The atrocities that have been committed were for political eflfecU Their very enormity was but to incense -the pro- slavery party to like depravity, that their kic micrlit ttt hv the Vf acanJal-ononZf r8 of the East, duly embellished for, the morbid appetites so eager to devour tnera. abo- lition journals can he without fear oi suc cessful contradiction, for taeir bigoted read ers look on but one tide of a question and no inducement could allure them into an investigation of any occurrence with which slavery might be Suh ia the origin, but the end is not ret. The slow and uncertain movement ot those robed in a little brief may check, but they' can never effectually arrest the depredations ot a man lik Lane, backed as he is by the purse-strings tf fanaticism. Already have we evidence of the imbecility and corruption of offic ials.

Lane and his army have been permitted to depart with all their booty, without anything more than a feint being done towards intercepting his flight. Pro slavery citizens are being hampered with peity prosecutions daily, while the roOst culpable Abolition culprita are permuted to stalk abroad unmolested. It is an everyday occurrence to hear threats made against law-abiding citizens, and some are even now deterred from returning to their homes for fear ol their lives being attempted by Abolition scoundrels. The most patient forbear- once cannot brook this state of affairs for any length of time. From the Piatt 'Aria.

By the time the mainnouy of the troops reached I rankhn, it was five o'clock, and they were eager, to go immdiateiv to Lawrence; but consid erine the lateness of the hour, the exhaust if condition of the footmen, and the lota ignorance of Lane's strength and the po sition of his fortifications it was decidea ttir to rest the men and make the at trb at dav-lisrht in the morning.

The contemptuous remark uttered by somi vulgar men at the North, that they cannot be kicked out of the ion." produces no other effect than to have stopped them from addressing any further warning to those who cannot understand respectful remonstrances. They are conscious that they soon may be acting history, and are quietly viewing the field be fore them, and considering their election of Fremont would be follow ed by meetings of conventions and legis latures, to which our wisest men would be sent to guide our actions.
