'K ted, "fitiriy and squarely," the Republican plat form. So aggressive was the slave power, he Baid, that he believed they would try to thrust t. it into Heaven itself, even if the Archangel - Michael stood at the gate unless he had a i Sharve's rifle in his hand! This irreverent lan-

1 guage was not used by one of the "border - ruffians," but by an immaculate Free State man. T Tsui Tpm

' - Thia same Col. Lane, when applied to to deliver np to Gov. Shannon the arms concealed in and about Lawrence, replied that if he "had ten thousand wives and each had ten thousand ' children he would see them all roasting in hell before he would give up the smallest portion of a Ringle gun." And yet the wretch who uses ; knt'1 nrl VJ 1 GrY AI I (2 1 11 TIO!! ft OTA U frllC

-language calculated to make the mostdeprared look aghast and the most callous shudder . ;is the head and front of the so-called "Free

" State men" in Kansas. He it is who has sent -'out his circulars to the Governors of all the j Free States, calling upon them to furnish him a with men, money and arms to assist in subverting the lawful government of the territory. .lie it is who is now calling upon the young men of the North to place themselves under ' his command, for the purpose of imbruing their -t hands in their brothers' blood in an unlawful and treasonable enterprise. N. A. ledger.

And who is this Col. Lane? Where did he "Jcome from? To what political party is he bound by past affinities and rewards? Why he is no other than the Col. James ' II. Lane who but two years ago stood almost at the Tery head and front of the Democratic party or Indiana, and who, if he had remained here, would doubtless now bo the Democratic candidate for Governor instead of Willard! He was elected Lt. Governor of thi3 State on4he ., aame ticket, the success of which made JosA.Wright Governor. He was raised a Democrat, he was a leading Democrat in this State before he went to Kansas, and ho is a Demoerat now. Two months ago this very day, Col. , Lane went into the Kansas State Convention, . with a "National Democratic" ticket, directly opposed to the Free State ticket. He had been - months before laboring to organize a National Democratic party in Kansas, a regular Admin istration party. The Executive Committee of that-Territory were composed of National Democrats. Every man on this Committee, including Lane, was a candidate for offico before the State Convention. Lane was a candidate for Governor. Every National Democrat ic candidate was defeated. Lane then perceived he was on the wrong side, and moved that Robinson, the Free State man who was elected OTer him, be nominated by acclamation, which was done. He stood out as a National Democrat in Kansas till all hope of gaining office under that name had fled, and then ' with the characteristic open-eyed virtue of Democratic leaders, he chose the side which offered the eurer prospect of office ultimately. A Kansas correspondent, in whose statements we have the utmost reliance, wrote to us directly after this Convention, that Col. Lane was one of the tools of Pierce in Kansas. He certainly was until this Convention, and we had so alluded to him more than once. He may yet be secretly, and our Democratic cotemporaries above may at last find they have had the "wrong sow by the ears." But at all events let them recollect, that they are abusing one of their old leaders and small political gods, when they abuse Col. Lane, and who was a National Pierce Democrat two months ago this very day. He is doubtless a Free State man to-day. What other Old Lane leader m this State, if placed in Kansas, would not also in two months be a Free State man, if that party was likely from tis strength to hold all the offices? We only ' wonder Lane held out so long as ho did. He would probably be yet holding out, if a State Convention had not convinced him ho was on the fio office side. .- - , . "Wasttiagtoa'i Birth Day. This is the Anniversary of Washington's Birth Day next in importance among our natal days to the anniversary of our Independence aa a Republic. We do not know but that it should be considered as the real anniversary of the birth day of our Republic for unaided by the" wisdom, strength and patriotism of Washington,, we might never have had it in our power to welcome the anniversary of the nation's independence. Never wfthin our recollection have there been more general preparations over the country, for the celebration of Washington's Birth Day,' than on this occa sion. Why is it this patriotic, this national feeling, has been so suddenly aroused? .We earnestly believe the movement owes its origin to the American party. , We believe the very formation of this party, and the spread of its principles, have renewed and freshened that patriotism which in olden times welcomed our Natal days with bonfires on the hills and cannons in the vallies, and public and heart-felt rejoicings everywhere. The American party has placed Washington on its banners, and Bide by side with' that name, his immortal language. In his name they have made their appeals to the country's patriotism in his words they have woven some of their own patriotic and national, principles.. They have J i! - 1 i . il , - - urawu iue ucaris oi.me people nearer to him in affectionate memory. They have made that memory fresher, and if possible, dearer to his countrymen. " And it is this freshening of the memory and awakened sense of the country's and each citizen's manifold obligations, to the departed "Father of his country," which make us now feel more like honoring the an mversary day of his birth.

1 CCrWe believe the success of a party so corrupt and villainous as the Know Nothings, would be the greatest calamity that could happen this country.: Loaisvilte Courier, Oil Line Whig. The State Sentinel thus credits the rascally sentiment above. "Louisville Courier, Old

Line Whig!" The Sentinel in days by-gone abused and slandered the V tug party with all the venom of party hatred,, but it never uttered a more contemptible sneer at a living body or attempted a more cowardly kick at a dead body, than in its present allusion to the Louisville Courier as an Old Line Whig paper. We venture to say there are not a dozen old Whigs in Kentucky, of intelligence and moral worth, and at all acquainted with the Courier, who do not detest it from the bottom of their hearts. For the last eight months the Courier has been fighting side by side with the Old Line Democratic party, sympathizing with itf wallowing with it, wrapped in the same gar ment, eating the same food mutually dirty and corrupt, mutually truckling to everything but honor and decency, mutually loving the base and the groveling, and mutually hating evervthinff not of themselves. It has been venomous in its enmity to those very persons and to that Very order, which its editor had taken an oath to support but a short time before he assumed his position with the Democratic party. Under these circumstances, to call the Courier an Old Line Whig paper, ur to say that it possesses a single attribute deserving the admiration or sympathy of an Old Line Whig, is to offer an insult to him and to the party of his old love and glorious remem brance. We understand this same Courier is endcav.1 11 nrl r 1 onng to revive tne oia wnigpanyi uuuu heavens! Cannot even the great dead be preserved from the loathsome appetites of political hyennas? Must even the reputation of the dead be stained by the touch and familiar handling of those too politically coriupt to be worth any living party's owning? The Louisville Courier to call upon old Whigs to unite with it in reviving the party of which the immortal Clay was a leader! . As well ask old Whigs to join hand in hand with the particular men who stigmatizeil Clay as a blackguard, a drunkard, a gambler and a murderer, and with these slanderers march to Clay's grave to drop tears to his memory. The Louis ville Courier the reviver of the Whig parly! Its course of late has actually disgraced the very memory of its old connection with the Whig party. It has made honest men asham ed that they ever affiliated with the man who edits the Courier. It the V hig party were revived again into momentary life, the burning brand of the Courier's connection, would hurl it back to its grave, hereafter to be remembered with shame, as it is now gloriously enshrined in the hearts of tens of thousands. If tho Courier truly desires a revivification of the old Whig party, let it abuse its memory as it is now abusing thousands of old Whigs let it tell theso old Whigs, the Courier will oppose the Whig party if again revived let it do any thing but damn it with the Courier's approval then it mag have some influence in breathing lifo into the nostrils of the dead. ' Indiana School Journal. The January No. of this new school periodi cal has been presented us by Mr. Cole, of this city. It is published the 15th of every month at Indianapolis, by the Indiana State Teacher's Association. The Resident Editor at In dianapolis, is Mr. Geo. B. Stone. Its othor editors are W. D. Henkle, of Richmond; C. Barnes, New Albany; Geo. A. Chase, Greencastle; E. P. Cole, Evansville; Rufus Patch, Ontario; B. T. Iloyt, Lawrenceburg; Miss M. F. Wells, New Albany; Miss M. J. ChamberIain, Indianapolis. Certainly this combination of talent ought to make the School Journal an excellent periodical. The number brfore us is neatly printed, and well filled with reading matter, including a great deal of peeuliar in terest to those directly interested in the schools of this State, and in the cause of education. Every school teacher, and every citizen who feels an interest in the cause of education in this Slate, should subscribe for the School Journal. It is offered at an exceedingly low price, being only one dollar a year. . Mr. Cole will bo pleased to receive subscriptions, and will promptly remit, and supply subscribers with tha Journal.

Hiram Powers. A paragraph has been published to the effect that Hiram Powers, the sculptor, was in pecuniary distress; it would appear however, not to be true, for, (wo learn from the Mirror,) in a letter recently received from him, he says: "I am now most prosperous, having passed over many years of great trial and difficulties, which, but for the Yankee blood in my veins, would have broken me up long ago, and sent me home to pursue a more lucrative business." To the Editor of the Banner: . If your correspondent, "Old Madison Man," will avow his name, and he should prove to be a man of any. respectability, I will show him to be a fool or a scoundrel.

An old and much Esteemed Citizen gone.

Vol. Ulement W hitmg departed tnjs nie on, the morning of" the 13th inst. at his residence in Lynthiana,. iosey county, Indiana. The decease J was born in, Fredericksburg, Virginia, Oct. 12th, 1789. In early life he om;f itu k; ß.vi. m Wft r, - w. -j.v. -j, Ky., where he resided until his remova to this place in eighteen hundred and eighteen. Col. Whiting, like the sons of most of the pioneers of the great West, enjoyed but limited . .. , ... . 1 i. educational privileges, yet but few men pos - sessed a stronger mind or more discriminating judgment. Many years since (the precise : timö when, not known to the writer,) he beu r n f u r a I came 9 member of the Jb raternity of Ancient muu. uiuuiuc. - , . York Masons, and the excellent principles and J rules of the Order, were his square ana compass through life. As the proprietor of the "Whiting House," Cal. Whiting has teen long and favorably known to the traveling community. As a citizen he occupied a prominent position, being ever ready by his counsels and means to aid any enterprise that promise to advance the interests of the community in which he lived. Sustaining through a long life in all its vari ous relations, the character of a high mmded and honorable man, he has left, not only a companijn, a numerous family of children and grand children, but an entire community to mourn his death. A CITIZEN. Ctnthiana, Feb. 7, 1856. The Louisville Journal and the Lexington, Ky., papers are requested to copy. Starving Poor Ko33uth Extravagance. A proposition being lto before the House of Congress to relieve the poor of Washington, some gentlemen refused to vote for it. Mr. Campbell then brought up for the benefit of a few of those gentleman tha Washington Kosuth Bill. This extravagant bill they had voted for, but now refused to vote for $1,503 for the suffering poor of Washington. Mr. Campbell read the following extract from a speech made in 1852 by Mr. Jones, of Tenn., member of the House. It is an interesting remen scence, which maae many othcrwi. e sensible people crazy on this subject a few years ago: "Now, sir, here is a bill paid to the Messrs. Brown, hotel keepers of this city, for Louis Kossuth and his suite, of $4,566 32. For that, I never intend knowingly to vote, directly or indirectly. "Several voices Read the items." "Mr. Jones" The items are as follows: To board Tor Governor Kossuth and suite, havine ten parlors and twentytwo chambers, thirteen and a hulf nays- iweiiiy toreu persons....... uu ISUK DRIES. Champagne, sherry, madeira, cigars, lemon- - adc,b..r bill, washing, medicines, post office stamps, portent jo and uusseners, hack hire paid alditterenuimes.tulegruphs, sugar, br.inuy and wtiistTin room, purler and ule, envelopes, barber's bill amounting in ail to Ü58 82 Bill for curriages engaged for Governor and suite 319 50 )4,500 32 "That is a bill for twenty-three persons during thirteen and a half days, amounting, I believe, to some $14 per- day for each perron. Then, sir, I have here a bill furnished by the keepers of tho National Hotel, at which Kossuth and his suite stopped on their return from the South, when they were upon their own expenses. I believe there were then six persons, they stopped at the Notional Hotel about four days, and their bill wa3 $74, being $3 03 per day for each person, when they were paying their own expenses, and something over $14 per day for each person, when this Government was paying their expenses." Late from Oregon. The Rogue Rivek Ixdiax Wab. In the Yerka Union of January 5 we find the follow ing news: Camp, Butte Creek, Dec. 27, 1855. The spies, in three day's search found Indians on the North Fork of Little Butte, about six miles from tho camp. About 11 o'clock on the night of the 24th, the company proceeded up Butte Creek, and camped within a mile of the Indian Kanchenes, and early m the morning proceeded to attack them, and at daybreak the firing from our side commenced, having completely surrounded them. Eight "bucks" were killed, and the balance more or less wounded. One squaw was accidentally wounded in tho lower jaw; two squaws, with their children, were made prisoners; no amunition was found, and four guns, several bushels of wheat, some salmon, and four horses. ., The result thus far is the total execution of two hostile bands. Capt. Bushey found the camp on Appleate too strong for the handful of men with him, and sent for a reinforcement. By another week we hope to have as good an account to give of that company as we have of those of Capt's. Rice and Alcorn. Since the above was in type, we have received a communication from one of Capt. Bushey's men. Twelve men, under the command of Lieut. Armstrong, started for Thompson's Creek, and seven men with Capt. Bushey, started on the trail, and having followed it two or three miles through a thick, bushy ravine, we came suddenly in sight of their camp, and immediately opened a fire on them, killing three and wounding several. We captured all their camp equipage, and then set the ranch on fire. The party returned to camp this evening. A SPECTATOR. Burning of the Capitol. Last week, says the Oregon 1 imes, we gave the news of the burning of tne Capitol. Later intelligence from Salem seems to justify the conclusion that this fire was first the work of an incendiary. The fire was first seen at 1 o'clock on Sunday morning. When first discovered by Dr. Wilson, who lives near, the fire was issumg out of the unfinished part of the northeast corner. Several persons arrived in time to inoticc that those portions of the building which were finished and occupied by the Assembly with stoves were all dark at the time, while the unfinished portions, accessible to incendiaries, were in flames. Arrival of Gov. Stevens feom the Indian Country. It seems that all rumors in relation to the massacre of Gov. Stevens and party in the Indian country are without foundation. According to the Oregonian, Gov. Stevens, of Washington Territory, had arrived at the camp of the Oregon Mounted Volunteers. and made a speech in the regiment, in which he avowed his determination to urge a continuance of the war until every hostile Indian is 1 m 11 noil and o.

"' A FEARFUL MANTRAP, """"" " - - - t One Victim Caught and Disabled for' Life.,

Within the last few weeks many private re sidences in the upper part of the city, particu-1 larly in the Sixteenth Ward, have been forci- j bly entered and robbed, and the occupants! Hves pkced in jeopardy from th0 bold and reckiess villains perpetrating these crimes, who j have little hesitation to shout, run through, or knock on the head any one having the temerity interfere with them while in pursuit of 'plunder. An occurrence, however, recently , took place w,)5ch carne near costing a rascal his worthless life, and one which should strike terror to all evil doers. It appears that a wealthy ana scientinc gentleman, wnose name we will not mention, residing on 1 wenty-hrst St., , , T,. ,r. . J , between the Eighth and Ninth avenues, has a fence about tbe rear yard of his premises, over which it is not impossible- for rogues to clam bcr, and by this means they might in the night time gain access to his dwelling. Wishing to prevent anything of the kind, he a few evenings ago set a spring board in the garden at that point of the fence where he would bi most likely to get over. In the end of thit board (nearly twenty feet in length) was firmly attached a sharp and immense totocco cutter, weighing sixteen pounds, and so prepared with springs that when any one getting from the outside and stepping upon a small platform on his way over the fence, the trap would spring and propel with great force the eud of the plank containing the cutter against the one treading upon the dangerous and forbidden ground. 1 his fearful man trap was baited, and set sev eral nights in succession, but without catching any game, and the inventor began to think he had had all his trouble and expense Tor nothing. About two o'clock, however, a few mornings since, this rogue catcher was heard to spring against the fence with so much force that several inmates ot tne house were awakoned by it. As soon as possible, the owner of the premises and a man in his employ hurried to the garden expecting to catch a crippled thief, but they were disappointed the work of effectually maiming had been accomplished, but the victim had jumped into the street, and hobbled off. He was traced some distance by the copious flowing of blood, but the fugitive could not be discovered he probably having been taken up and conveyed away by some accomplices. On entering it was discovered that the power of the spring board had forced the iron cutter through a two inch plank of the fence, by the side of which was found part of a brogan shoe or boot, containing three toes and other parts of a man's foot, which had been severed by the victim springing the trap. The blood at the time was flowing from the lost limb. Judging from the remnant of the shoe found it was of English manufacture, and hence the wearer is supposed to have been an English burglar. Nothing more has been heard of this unknown victim, nor any more rascals caught,nothwithstanding this infernal machine (if so it may be termed) has since been nightly set. This part of a man, although he has sustained a great loss, may consider himself fortunate that he succeened in escaping with his life. The "cutter," had it struck him in the abdo men, would have instantly divided hi3 body. The inventor of this machine is a practical engineer, and jrears ago was engaged on some public works near Cincinnati. Many were the depredations committed upon the storehouse belonging to the contractors, to stop which they were at ,a loss. He accordingly set his trap for the pilferers, but in a different manner from that at his residence recently The springboard was so arranged as to take a vertical direction, and the night following its completion an innocent Hibernian sprung upon it, and was thrown upward a distance of forty feet and landed on the roof of tha building fortunate ly without doing him serious damage, except from n ight. He screamed lustily and thought his time had come. iv. 1. Inb. Hoors. The New York Times narrates tho following little incident to show the advantages sometimes derived from the wearing of hoops: A week or two before last New Year's after a brisk circulation of invitation cards the church of was crowded to attend the mar riage of Miss , aged 20, to Mr. , aged 23. Tho young lady was a daughter of a man of largo reputed wealth in tho west end of the the city, and the wedding was celebrated with all pomp and ceremony usual on such occasions and considerable more. On New Year's Day tho young wife was arrayed in her wedding robes and received an immense company of her old beaux, who admired her beauty, thought that she went to the full length of the fashion in her "Eugenie hoop," thought tho husband a happy fellow, had a fine time generally and went home. Two weeks later, and the hoop is no longer needed. A bouncing infant no longer seeks for lonccalment, and the young mother will probably abjure hoops for tbe future, and as a future grandmother, may look upon them as immoral and to bo discountenanced. The Howard Family of Bocrbon Co. Kt. A correspondent of tho Urbana Citizen gives the following account of this remarkable family: ' ' ; The old gentlmeman is a native of Maryland, and is now in his seventieth year; was brought to tho State of Kentucky when quite young, and has raised a tainuy in the above country, consisting of six sons and throe daughters. !

Mob Law is Illixois. A Man IIaxged. A criminal undr sentence of death was taken from prison and hanged by a mob on Friday last, at Charlestown, Coles co., 111. , He was sentenced to suffer the penalty of death for the alleged murder of his father-in-law, some time ago. At the trial, the prisoner's counsel failed to obtain a change of venue or new trial; and the man was accordingly. condemned to be hanged on Friday, the lüth inst. Meanwhile, at the solicitation of his counsel, the Governer granted a reprieve of 90 days, in order that certain circumstances connected

with the murder might be more carefully scru-; tin.zed. On 1 nday, a large crowd from the surround- ,, . , . .. ' . 'districts Collected tO. Witness the eXCCUins districts tion. When informed that a temporary reprieve had been granted him, some violent men among them advised them to break open the prison and hang the criminal. Unfortunately the advice was unopposed and acted on. There was a guard of twelve men armed around the prison. The mob drove them off I hey then attempted to gain admittance to the gate, but the wife of the jailor locked the door an 1 prevented them from entering. They proceeded to wrench out the- bars on the prisoner's cell, and soon made an opening large enough for one man to enter, lhey pushed one of their number into the cell. The prisoner gave him a thrashing, but two other men were soon admitted anu arrested him. He was then taken out. The mob took him half a mile out of town, but only two men were found willing to act m hangmen. Some others were finally induced to assist, and the prisoner was hanged on the branch of a tree. The Sheriff found it impossible to raise a posse strong enough to rescue the prisoner. Several of the rioters have been arrested, and great excitement prevailed at Charlestown. SPECIAL NOTICES.
