PSt. Jon, who has just been rettlected Governor of Kansas, on tho subject of the exodus of the colored people from. some of the Southern States to the Stato of Kansas, 'The honofable gentleman was accompanted on the platform by the Rev, Mr. Wishard, of Chieago} whe briefly stated the purpose of tha mecting, and, nfter opening the proceed- Ings with-pn nppropritte prayer, introduced Uov. St. Jolin to the audience, Gov, St. Jolin began by saying that he re- gretterl that there were so fow present.

He remembered the time when they could count on their fingers the men who favored the abolition of slavery th this country; but gradually the slave-power grow till !¢men- acet the very existence of tho country, and then the free North rose and crushed it into perdition.
