An honest Democrat! It is delightful
to see that the honesty left in the Sham-
ocratic ranks-is not all confined to the
“Test. We account for the remarkable
independence and frankness of the Editor
of the Argus, from the fact that he is not
exposed to any of ,tlie temptations which
beset. the Editors of the Register, the
New London Star, the Middletown Seu-
tinel,Hurt.ford Times, Bridgeport Farmer,"
Norwich Aurora, and such other as are
fed from the public Treasury. V'\’e have
some good advice. If there is a pitiable
object upon earth, it is a Treasury—fed ed-
itor, who dares not “call his soul his own”

any such inconvenient article about him.

The Approaching State Comte ntion.
On Thursday of next week, a more im-
portant. political assemblage, than any
which has been held in Connecticut, for
many years, will be convened at Hart-
ford. In. the country at large, there are
now substantially but two conflicting par-
tyorganizations; the sham Democratic
and true Republican. The former is as
effectively organized in our State as ‘any-
where, but the latter has been weake_ned
by timidity, by faction, and by halting
compromise. It does not even in its oili-
cial announcements assume the name,
which ever ' body applies to it elsewhere,
and its State Central Connnittce have
not felt a.uthori7.ed to designate its annu-
al gathering a. Republican Convention l
IL, is time that these t.b‘m,g.q éfild
this Connnonwealth slioiildi prorriaimfthcir
tirne-honored name, should set forth,; dis-
tinctly their own noble principles; and
rally under that broad Republican ,,ban-
ner, to whose standard from Maine to
California, millions are gathering.
This is the true work of the Convention
of the 14th. Let th e delegates to that
assemblage place the freeman of C__oiinec—
ticut., whom they will represent, in‘ the
same great array with the Republicans of
the ELEVEN states which gave their vote
to Fm=:no.\:r, let them nominate a ticket,
that will abide by the principles -which
animated us in the great cont.cs.t of 1856,
and we shall be.§!afe. Any other course

He was not afraid to advocate a system
of protective duties as the best measure
to restore real and permanent prosperity
to the country. H c taunted the support-
ers of the bill with the sad results of their
revenue tariff doctrines, and pro posed in-
stead of a Treasury note issue, an increase
of duties upon articles of import. M r.

n@'*How Gov. Rssnsu Escssan runs
KANSAS.~—GCO. W. Brown, editor of the
Herald of Freedom, in Kansas, is publish-
ing some remarkable incidents in the his-
tory of the Territory. Here is an ac-
count of Gov. R.(*e(lPl"S mysterious flight
during the ammo of excitement between
two hostile parties :
“ Recdcr being thus unprotected, and
the United States Government, in its Ex-
ecutive and J udiciury department. arrayed
against him, determined to leave the Tel‘-
ritory. Finding it unsatc to remain long-
er with the-investigatiug Comlnittec, he re-
tired to a frind’s house near Ijawrunce,
where he remained but a short. t.ime.—-
His enemies not finding him as they ex-
pected, with the Committe,‘immediately
sent to Leavenworth and Kansas City,
to watch the steamboat landings, as far
dowu as Lexington, to search the boats
and prevent his escape. He however suc-
ceeded in eluding his pursners, and with
the friendly assistance of Mr. Jenkins,
succeeded in arrivingsaily at Kousas City,
Here he was taken charge of by Col.
Eldridge, and secreted in the American
Hotel. On the arrival of G. W. Brown,
from Alton, the Hotel was surrounded
Llyy, hag iu1u1_'Qt.c_d mob, threatening ,,fo’r(-.i—
7.
(led to the danger of Gov. Reader. But
the courage and address of Col Eldridge
saved his hotel from search, and the Gov-
ernor from seizure and probable death.
Steamboats were so vigorously guarded
‘and the search so strictly made that it
was considered unsafe to attempt t.o get
on bonrdonc at Kansas City, and as it.
was equally unsafe to longer remain in his
present coucealnient, a new e.\;pcdicnt was
resorted to. The Governor shaved off his
fine wl1i.~:kcrs and moustache; froused
his hair, dressed himself in the clothes
of-an Irish laborer, with his puntaloons
too short at top and bottom, his coarse
shirt. and jacket, a pipe in his mouth, and
an axe on his shoulder, and bundle in his
hand, he was seen wandering around du-
ring the evening, apparently unobserved
and uuobserving. As soon as it had be-
come suflicicntly dark, and the. crowd had
retired from the landing, M r. Edward El-
dridge, brothcr of the Colonel, and his
will-, came in a skill’ to the landing, and
Gov. Reeder s‘cppcd in. They rowed
during the night, 28 miles to Liberty,
when they landed. Hcre they remained
till a steuinboat came along bound down
the river, when the Governor went. on
board, took a deck passage with the la-
borers and boat. hands, and in time ,land'=
ed safely at St. Charles from which he
mudc his passage across the country to
Illinois.”
