MOB LAW JUSTIFIED.
Tho most damnable,outrageous doctrine wo ever beard uttered by a man professing to possess any of those traits common
an important ami reponsible station, came from John G. Davis, in his speech at this place, on Thursday. In speaking of the destruction of the Free Stale Hotel at Lawrence, he said that his only regret was, that the Hotel was not totally demolished —razed from the ground—and not one stone left upon the top of another ! He also justified tho destruction of the printing presses and upheld the mob throughout! If the people sustain a man advocafing such incendiary doctrine as this, we confess that wo must believe, hereafter, that all virtue, justice, and intelligence, have departed from them, and that they are no longer guided by reason and the better principles of their nature. But wc need not fear—they will not do it. Usher, tlie able, talented, and fearless opponent of this justifier of mob law and mob rule will lay him in his (political) grave, to resurect him from which, it will require more votes than is at tho command of this corrupt and imbecile administration, with all the money and the patronage it has at its

merely because that choice was manifested outside of the legal form, aud necessarily so, because the law making power was destroyed by foreign violence, is to deny to Kansas the right to be heard at all on the
floor of the House.
Mr. Smith, of Tenn., called attention to the fact the Committee on elections in other contested cases had reported a resolution that the contestant was entitled to his seat, hut in this they recommend that Mr. Reeder be admitted. Was might or right
here to prevail?
Mr. Washburne repeated that neither Mr. Whitfield nor Mr. Reeder was chosen by the existing law. In the present case the Committee had followed the precedent set concerning Wisconsin and Minnesota Territoritories. It was competent for the House to admit Reeder as a delegate. Smith said Re<dei had no legal right,
yet you would admit him.
Stephens, taking issue with Washburne, remarked that where there is a legally organized territorial government, some person must be, under law, entitled to a seat. In tlie case referred to by the gentleman from Maine, there was no organized government, but in Kansas provision is made by law for the election of a Delegate, therefore the precedent did not apply. In the course of his remarks he alluded to the adoption of Sherman’s amendment to the army appropriation hill, saying a majority of the House had thus evinced their desire to strike down the main pillar of liberty—namely, the right of the people to bear arms, as secured bv the Con stitution. When he saw such things, he almost despaired of anything being done in behalf of law and order, the Constitution being regarded as no longer binding. Sherman replied to Oliver of Missouri’s

He argued that the remedy for the free state men by judicial process in Kansas, is utterly futile. He would vote for unseating Whitfield, because the latter represented the forces that invaded Kansas. The laws of that territory illegally passed ought to be repealed, the militia disarmed, and tho whole federal treasure, if necessary, expended to keep tho peace. X-flTIt is said that the Republican meeting at Craw fords villo, on .Saturday, was one of the most numerous that ever as-
than double the amount of territory not withstanding, has been appropriated for slave states than Iras been for free states. He showed the enormous amount which has been paid by tlie friends of freedom, over tliat which lias been paid by the friends of slavery, for this territory, and exhibited a map showing that more square miles of this Union are devoted to»slavery than is comprised in all tlie free States, and all the remaining territory. He then took up the Nebraska Swindle, dissected it, and exposed it in its conception and birth, and its effects upon Kansas and the Union down to the ostensible backing out of Douglas, Pierce &■ Co., and proved it to be a very deceptive and very nasty thing in al! its bearings. Then lie reviewed very briefly the remarks of his competitor, with regard to Abolition, Mr. Julian, and free state men ; which coerced from the audience hursts of heart felt laughter, which truthful, and well-merited ironv generally calls forth from a grave and intelligent audience. He then glanced at some of the pro-slavery features of the Old Line Platform ; then turned to the Republicon Platform, drew a parallel between that and the Platform upon which the late Democratic party so firmly and successfully planted itself, and demonstrated most clearly that if the Republican party are "Abolitionists” now, the Democrats were, (in Old Line parlance,) a “ Black Republican," Kinkey Head, Disunion, Abolition, Miy-
ger loving” Party, then.
Mr. Davis here resumed the stand and his Old Line stereotyped argument of Abolition, when the writer was called away on business, and not permitted to return until Mr. Usher’s response was nearly closed. When lie entered thbdoor, Mr. Usher had the Old Line Democrats mounted on the body of a Tadpole, the Old Line Whigs on the tail ! Every mouth seemed stretched to its utmost tension,
stood opposed to the extension of slavery \ and chose not to support Buchanan, were j Abolitionists. lie told the people that he, Jim Hanna, was opposed to slavery! —to its extension ; and would, were lu i entitled to a vote in Kansas, vote for its; exclusion; but directly he was found at tempting to prove its divinity, and called up the ghosts of the immortal Washing-! ton and Jefferson to prove .hat they were 1 in favor of slavery, both at home and | abroad! yes! Jim Hanna and George 1 Washington didn’t agree ! lie justified
the assault on Mr. Sumner and charged H, : ,' a m A Trodigy: Little its nationality on the North ; he abused JACK MADID AN, and knowingly misrepresented tho views Messrs. NAGLE, BARGUS
and intentions of the emigrants to Kansas, from the East ; in tine, ho intended to make people believe that he was an, honest man, and that they ought to vote for Buchanan—the tiaducer of Henry Clay, the man whose policy favors the reduction of the wages of laborers, who "nev-
