Apply tho same principle to Kansas, and all will be
right”aud no man can object who is witling to allow
the people of Kansu to decide for themselves the
question of slavery.
It is said that Gov. Walker violatod tho doctnne
of non intervention in advising tho submission of
of tbo Constitution to tho people. In my judgment,
liis advice was right—liis threat was wrong and high
ly reprehensible. If however his edvioe and throat
was a violation of non-intervention, what is to be
done with our Democratic and American, friends in
the last Congress, who passed nn act requiring a sub-
fission to the peoplo in the .Minnesota bill f If tho
advice of Walker was an executive and official vio
lation of non-intervention, then tho Minnesota bill,
commanding tho same tiling to bo done, >v.is not on
ly an executive and ofiicUL hut also l pith tire vio
lation of non-intervention. And yet no ono com
plains ot the last Congress for tho passage of that
bill, nor was there tho slightest effort to amend it in

Brown’s Retort on Hill—“Ben 11:11
THE FAST MAN”!
One of the happiest hits in tire able speech
of Judge Brown at Ncwnan was his reply to
Mr. Iliil's charge that Buchanan was too slow
a President for him. The charge and the re
ply arc accurate indications of the character of
the two men, the ono rash, reckless end impet
uous in his statements and conduct—the other
grave, dignified, and deiibratc in everything.
Judge Brown impresses you with the solidity
of his his mind and character. Mr. Hill with
his smartness, his light manner and his in
considerate remarks.
On tho occasion referred to. Judge Brown
in his opening speech liad commented npon the
great responsibility connected with all high
official positions and especially that of the
Ruler of so vast a country as ours, and liow
necessary it was for tho President to be fully
informed of all the facts in every case where
liclrnd to exercise his power—it was necessary
for a government sever to act with baste.
Mr. Hill in replying to this remark of Judge
Brown said he believed iu a Fast Government,
one that would act quickly and with dispatch
—that Buchanan was too slow for him, and
he was afraid Brown would make too slow
Governor.
Judge Brown retorted “It was true, that he
was not a fast man. Mr. Hill was correct in
his opinion of him. lie, Mr. Hill was evident
ly from bis speech a Fast young .Man and if he
were elected Governor he would doubtless
make a Fast Governor! and if the people want
ed such a Governor they had better cast their
votes for Hill. If the people should honor him
with the high position for which Jus party had
demanded bis services lie expected to be a slow
Governor. He never expected to act in haste
and repent at leisure—be would surround him
self with wise counsellors—he would reflect
well before acting, and then endeavor to the
best of his ability to discharge faithfully the
duties of his office. If the people wauted t
fast man, they would not find what they de
sired, in him.”
The applause of the auditory was immense,
at this telling retort, and when he spoke of
Hill as The Fast Candidate the hit was re
sponded to with thundering cheers.

Bank of Fulton.
While wc believe, as a general rule, that
newspaper controversy, political or financial
is productive of little or no good, yet an article
in the Chronicle and Sentinel of the 15th inst,
stated by the editor to he “ from a reliable
source,” reflecting, as it docs, severely upon
the credit of an institution which we represent
as Directors as well as on our private charac
ter as honest men, demands from us some
notice.
We have been connected with the Bank, as
Directors, from its organization to the present,
and are familiar with all its operations, as well
as resources and liabilities, and have no hesita
tion in pronouncing the letter referred to as a
base falsehood and a libel on the Bank; that it
was conceived iu malice, and published to grat
ify the malevolent spleen of some dissappoint
ed applicant, who had failed to make a tool of
the Bank for his own purposes, and instead of
being reliable, as the Chronicle would have its
readers believe, is wholly unworthy of credit
or confidence.
The Bank is do Wild Cat. Its very small
circulation is confined at home, and has ex
tended its entire accommodation to the busi
ness men of our community, affording all the
facilities our limited capital wonld admit to
advance the interests of this section of the
State; and we believe we have the right to loan
or refuse money as we please, without being
subjected to an attack through tho press.
It is idle to talk of such men as Whitaker,
Thompson, Hayden, W. M. &J. E. Williams
being made tools of by any body. Where they
are known, their reputation is a sufficcnt guar
antee against any 6uch imputation. They are
actual stockholders with stock paid in, in com
pliance with the Charter which defines clearly
their liabilities.
The knowing correspondent of the Chronicle
& Sentinel had also discovered that a certain
Gregory had come from some place with full
power to “close the Bank.” Wc know that
the Editor of tho Chronicle swallowed the
Walioo Bank,” aud the Volcano in upper
Georgin, hut did not think, he could he suf
ficiently imposed upon to he made to believe
the above assertion.
Where did he get his power ? Who delega
ted, or had the right to delegate, such power
to him or any one 1 Nothing short of a meet
ing of all the Stockholders, upon thirty days’
notice given, could grant any such power—and
the approved by the hoard of Directors.
No! it is false. Wc arc able to take care
of the interests of the institution wc represent
as Directors, and shall do it. Neither Bill-
holders, Stockholders, or other creditors of the
Bank, shall suffer loss. We are strong and
defy attacks of disappointed borrowers, or
hoaxed editors. A. W. STONE,

Tlic Dome of tlic Capitol.
The Washington “States” in contradict
ing the rumor that the wall of the rotunda of
tho Capitol had been found insufficient to sup
port the new dome, is enabled to state, upon
the best authority, that there is no truth what
ever in the rumor. It has authority of Mr,
Walter, the architect, for saying that no change
has taken place in his own judgment, nor in
that of Captain Meigs, in relation to this sub
ject ; and that no practical demonstration has
been made from which any new conclusions are
warranted. It also states the important fact,
that the weight of the new dome of the Capitol
will be less than that of the old.
