Arriaga bas also ssccpted the portfulio of Minister of the Interior. M. Prieto, Minister of Fi- | nanoe, bad resigned, but his resignation waa not accept- | d by the President. A letter from the licentiate, A. Zerecero, private Sec retary of Alvaraz, addressed io the Siglo,’ published by the latter and commented upon hy the Républicans, had exerted a good deal of sensation in the political world. In un editorial article, the Siglo had stated that Goneral Alva; er seemed to lean rather to the side of the ‘Paros’? ‘than to that of the “Moderados.” This assertion drew \ forth the letter of M. Zerecoro, who states that he ia for- ~ mally authorized to contradict it. “In the mountains where he has passed his hfe," says the writer, ‘General Alverer bas always kopt aloof fom porties, and he ro- jets with oll ‘energy of bis character the Se ifn of ‘Puro,’ which bas been given to him.” This de- claration has been very badly received by the ultra libe- rat press. Ta his letter, M. Zerecero adds that General Alvares is disposed to abandon the reigns of government, and to return to live tranguilly in his mountains of the Sonth, if the difficulties of the administration should prove tco inuch for his strength.

The Patria finds in its language not the sub, nirsive tone of a subordinate to his superior, but the atti- sudo of a man who treata on equal terms with the Presi- Sent. General Vidaurri must, in fact, be cither very im- ident or very strong. Pa telter Riseruraliy addressed to General Comonfort by Vidaurri, acknowledging the authority of the former B Comuendorsin chiet and cengratulating him om his appointment, seems to contradict these suppositions, as Comonfort deriving his powers from the Presideat, Vidaurri would not thus Lo piped himselt, did he not ‘mean to recognize the election of Alvarez.

The Trenton Gazette contaias the foltowing report ot the remarks made by ex-Govornor Reeder af that place on the 20th ult :-— A jarge number of our eltizens, of all political parties, assembled at Temperance Hall,/on Thursday night, to listen {0 an exposition of Kaasas affairs by ex Governor Reeder, Hon, Joseph P. Randolph was called to the chatr, end in & few appropriate remarks welcomed Gor. Reeder, whose address was exceedingly cloquent and alfootive One important fact was ci:closad, which destroya the effi- cacy cf ali the miserable apologies that have beau offeced for tho outrages in Kansas, aud exhibits not only the de- signs entertained by the Missourians to subvert popular rovercignty in Kansas, but alo the direct concurrence, of the admipis'ration in it. Governor Reeder stated that before he went to his po:t he received inforras- tion that a secret rociety had been oganisod in Missouri for the Papone of transferring votes into the Territory, and by violeuce, if nece-xary, to secure the control of 1t for the purpose of establishing the institution of slavery. This information, it was im‘i- mated, wus conveyed by Governor Reeder to the national executive, but no measures were undertaken to avert the impending outrages. After their perpetration, the exe cutive treated those who complained of them ‘with neg- Ject and ccntumely. The relation shows als> conclusive- Jy the s:cclousness of the reason arvigned for Governor feeder’ removal, and that his refusal afver promises threats, to participate ia the frauds on the settlecs of Kansas, was the only motive for that act. For the true hercism displayed by him in vhe discharge of his duty. he cmerves the highest commendati n. The account given ef parties and polities in the Terri‘ory, and of tho menner in which the border maraudera accomplished their undertakings, wii be ftoucd interesting. Below we give » synopsis of the principal statements in the ad- cress, which was listcned to with the most sarne it attun- tion, and was frequently interrupted by bursts of sympa thetic anplause:— After alluding to the pieasure he experienced in meoting the citens of Trentoo, and his personal feeling that he was discharging au important duty tn uddcessiag them on the affairs of Kansas, ko proceeded to remark on the ogricultural resources of the Territory. He had never reen a land which held out euch hopes to the agriculta- rist. It is a land of undulating plalas—not flat and mo- notenous like the prairies, but divecstlied with hills, woods, river bottoms, &c.—with'a rich alluvial soll of from 2 to 20 leet deep. “It has every varivty cf poil, and is capa’ cf raising almost every Varlety of production. | He cribed the phystcol features of the country as being ex. ceedingly beautitul. The climate, for salubriousaess cannot he surpassed, In summer itis pleasant and de- rhful, beyond improvement, from the time the spring The heat of the sun is tempere { bys constant fresh breeze. In winter it {s so mild that ¢ agriculturist can ulmost feed his stock without grain. For healthiness, soil and beauty, the country cannot be surpusred. But these are not the only recommendations. ‘The Territory is in the direct route to the Pasific, It lies between ‘the frigid Nebraska, on the north, and the sickly Indian ‘erritory on the south; it has a river well adapted to commerce; it contains undoubtedly the best route for the vacific raitroa’—s direct air line from (ho month of the Kansas river to § i ley of the only river along which ti in quacti ies sufficient to build and operate the road, a plain alveady graded for the work of the ergineer, and the best cpening through the Rocky Mouutaina, seventy or eighty miles south of South Pass. He repented that this route is the only one in which » capitalist, after a pereonal examivation, would invest money. He spoke also of the amount ot trade which ORAEK The Tain.

There are some 12,000 or 16,000 raules and oxen engage¢ in transportation annual- ly. Besides, from tho nature of the country, Kansas, or the castern portion of it, when formed into 's State must be the only great agricultural State between Missourt and Salt Lake, an¢ consequently will furnish supplies to the latter. He then proceeded to speak of the political affairs of Kansas, It was thrown open to settlement in 1854. Our citizens were invited thither under peculiar circumstances. Congress had chosen to remove the re- atrictions hitherto imposed in territorial organizations, aa an additional inducement for ) and the faith: of the nation that they should enjoy the privi- lege of a self-government. The rights secured by the ter- ritorial act are such as are guaranteed by the Dec's tion of Independence, and # How has the pledge of the nation been redeemed’ proceeded to state that after his appointment as Gover- nor, and to his leaving home, he recetved merovs intimations that a plot was concerted to overwhelm the ballot box by Missouri votes, and to prevent the of Kansas from governi: themeelves. He thought i: most judicious to. prese silence concerning this matter, and he communicated it only to him to whom it was his duty to commit it, (racandug the national Executive.) In St. Louis he was approached and the plot was avowed, amd he was asked if he would tanction the proceeding, Ho treated the matter as gently and courteously as ible, determined to avoid exciting, if he could, any disorder, and hoping the plot would not be put nto execution. But he soon found that it was no chimera. A secret socioty had been organized in Missouri for sendiug voters into Kansas. Fa- teeming the ballot box as the guardian of freedom, he determined to guard ites vacreily aa posable. had no alternative but to neglect bis duty, forfeit his respon- sibility, lose hia self-respect and dawn himself to evor- lasting obloquy, or to perform his duty in @ storm of proscription, intolerance and menace such as be han not expected. There was but oue course for an honest man—to protect the ballot box to prescribe careful forma of clection, and stringent catts, This he did, and from that time fo this the sterm has not ceased. Before the March election, 1864, he was again approached and promised forgiveness and many tther tings, if he would. throw off responsibility ty the judges of election, and accept their returns as valid, without exas or deciding om thom. He again refused, but courteously, although irrevocably. He had previ ously snnouneed to his Southern colleagues his intended course of action, and he defiod them to assert tbat it was not correct. In November, 1854, Whitfleld was undoubt- edly clected Cengressional te, even after deduct iegal voted, the free State party being then in a minori- ty, and thelr strength fivided. The census was taken inthe winter, and the election for members o the Ivgislature ordered for March. The Missouri ans and pro-slavery men then determined to make heir grond struggle. Several weeks previous to the election, companies of armed mev, numbering {rem fifty to one thousand men each, all having wea- pons, and one of them a couple of field pieces, began marching into the Territory, boasting that they would carry every election district. They encamped around the polls on the night previous to the election; in the morning they took possession of the polls ia some in- stances, in others they intimidated the judges, in others drove them away, and in some cases used violenen. When they prevented themselves to vote, the judges de- clared they must take the prescribed oath. ey # vore they would have no eaths, and in one place a man drew lis knife and threatened to kill the first man that took an oath; in another a free State voter who went up to take the oath was thrown from the window, Thus the «le was carried. An executive order had prescribed the method of contéstiog an election, Whore no con- tent wae made, certificates were granted; where there was one, tho election, if good cause’ was shown, end until winter. was fet a ani a new one ordered. Tho new urmers thus elected were ejected from the ligisla'ure, when it met, and those first returned were relastated, He recounted the various sons why he conridered the Legislature illegal.

They resclved that it waa the duty of Congress to the south to allow a pre-omp- tion of 3:0 instead of 160 acres, ond declared that they would protect pe-emptors to'that amouat. Thou opsin they cisqualified all lawyers who wou'd not ac- knowledge the yolidity of the acts of the Legislature. ‘They then proceeded to pass an election law which also conilicts with law of Congress.

Stephen W. Simmons eworn—Carried tho boy home The Legislature had made another change from the usual Practice of elections, They enacted that the chationger of a vote mnst prove the negative. Judges of election were vested with the discretion to swear person offer- irg or hear other testimony; but if the voter should be sworn, no other testimony could be heard, So a Missou- rian could go to the polls and swear in hia voie, although & hundred persons could testify that he was non rosi- éent. Or if he was not sworn when challenged, all that he has to do is to keep silent, and unless it caa be shown that he is a non resideat, he votes. To the clestion ap- inted under this law the free State men wouli not go. ry had the alternative of at'ending that farco of an election or of falling back on their own sov: 7 The free State election, Goy. R. contended, was legal. [t wasa contingency which Congress had not contemp!ated or pro- Yiced for, and ia which the people were compelied to fall back on their soverolgnty or loe tho right of representation. The cali for it was signed by over 1,000 real settlers. This was raal popular sovereignty. ‘he Governor commented at Jength on this part of the aud- Ject. At the free State election, the number of votes was greater than thot cast at the previous election, counting Misscunana and Indians—showing the free state party to be largely in the majority, Governor Reeder then showed the difference bet reea the free State party and free soilers, as they are sometimes mistakenly desig- nated, avd warmly disclaimed for them anything lke abdolitionism. Their platform is conservative and natis al. it recognises the constitution and its comyromise: the fugitive slave Jay ond State rights, and all {ts sen ments are those of liberality and justice, strongly oon- trasting in (his respect with the proscription and intoler- ance of the pro-slavery party.

Ho then spoke eloquently of the oppressive practices on the Free State party. He de- scribed them as being ina state of white slavery, with choins, gyves, and manacles upon them. Popular sove- reiguty had been desecrated, and the ballot bux polluted, They were compeiled, theretore, to appeal to the people of the Union for profection, They hud appealed to the raticnal executive, acd been treated in such @ manner, that, if rela ed, the indignation of every bones man would be aroused. ihe tysue, he said, mut come. We either wish to be protected or to have the liberty ot protecting ourselves, We must have otr illozal government withdrawn, and a egal ono fustitu- ted by Congress, or we must be left to our rovereignty. We do not agitate tho question of slavery-~but only that of the right of suffrage and of self. goverrment. In cunclusion, he sketched the terribie re- sults which might ensue in Kansas aud the nation at large, should not the difficulties of the Territory be sct- tled, and poured merited scorn upon those editors aad poliiciacs who are attempting to conceal the reat facta or misrepresent them.

Nonrous, Nov. 80, 1856, The Kiduapping Case—Kamination of Captain Lam’aia, ‘The exeawination of Win. ff. Lambdin before bis honor Mayor Summers, on the charge of kidnapping slaves, hes just been concluded, axd he has been sent on for further trial. Mr. John T. Croper appeared for the necused, and ¥. P. Mayo for the Commonwealth. The ovidence.ad- duced was of themost eonvineing caaracter. Tae amount of the passoge money was found pon the person of the prisoner, but which he at first refused to give up to the authorities, The corfeasiors of Capt. Lambdin is all the evicence that has been obtained in his cuse, as taose confessions were given at the time of his vessel geound- ing. By that it imei that he was not aware of the presence of the slaves until near the place where he went ashore. According to his statement, he endervored to put back into port in oréer to deliver thom up to the proper authoritie<; it blowing at tho jtime a sovere le, he was unable to do so. “According to one of the witvences in tho case the captain inquired the to Nortolk, and asked for some kind of conveyance. At this part of the examination quite 8 laugh ocourced at the expense of the attorney for the accused, the witness stating that the captain bad said he was endeavoring to get buck to coliver himself up to one of onr promi: nent mer hants, and Mr, Croper insisting that he had said the proper authority. Mr. Croper asked the witness if he did not recollect telling the captain of some qne not being at home? The witness ‘that he did, and in- formed bim thet he had said tho Ma(yo)r(e) was not at home. Here appeared a contradiction, for if he had sormed the prisoner thet the Mayor was not home, they were speaking of the authorities. Bat, alas for human understanding! the attorney was soon’ informed of his mistabe by the witness, who said that he merely meant “his creter,”’ which was an old horse. I need pot say anything regarding the laughter that convalsed those persons who thronged the court room; even the stala visage of the Msyor relaxed into broad grin. I wish I could give you a daguerreotype of the captain, who has been cxamined, andthe mate now, while! write, being examined. ‘The former is about the middie stature—dark, shaggy brow—small, pie eye— bold front, but not remarkably bandsomo. 1 do not think any one would be mistaken in his appearance, but would = him a thorough Yankee; the lattor is lower than the former, avd looks as much like a ‘“iown- caster’?

Q. From your examination of the boy, what is your opinion of the cause of injury ind treatment? = Objected to by counsel for’ plaintiif, and waived for the prerent by counsel for Cefence. T examined the ir juries sufiiciently to form an opinion about it; on the exawination of arm, I discovered a loss of s:me of the members of the hand: they were alt mor- tified; the hand was ¢oformed in consequence; examined the elbow in reference to the artery, and I believe the largo artery, at the bend of the elbow was obliterated; one o* the arteries of the forearm was pulsated—weakon- 's all thet struck me on the examination; the in- ¥ might have been the caure of the obliteration tne artery; from the posiiion of the bone, that was ingured, (ho effect would bs to interrupt im- mediately the direct circulation of the forearm; all the low the interruption would be effected; if the ny ifested coldness in the evening afvr the arci- dent it would show that the circulstion was impeded. Q. Would that ,be attributable ,to the treatmont of the surgeon Would it produce the mortification of the fingers? A. Itis very doubttul whether obliteration of the ar- ‘ery would Jead to mortification of the fingers; when the nerves are effected im a limb, it does not material'y interfere with the cnculstion of the blood; as u general rule it ix a remarkable (act with regard to the arms, that they very seldom perish from the want of circulation; surgeons differ as to tie amount of bandaging; now baud- aging is generally practised; thirty or forty years ago it was different; I gonerally use bandages “and apply them as I sec tity Q. If a bandage were spplicd so tight in the afternoon as to produce coldness of fingers, and swelling and discu- loration, and bandeging should not be changed for six days, what woult be the effect A. Cannot tell without secing it; if J saw this I should undoubtedly rlacken the bandsges on tho evening of the first day, not that I believe that any ordinary bandagiog of the arm would produce wortif sation ot the hand; or- dinary bandaging would not produce mortifeation; » number of years ago I met with a cave not very dissial- Jar from ‘his cave here; that case was @ boy eight or tea years old, who fell from « tree uot three miles from this er on Long Island; he dislocated the cloow joint and ractured it compounoly; the bone projected through the = fiech; I reetored the bones to their proper places and dreescd the arm; put a bandage on ve y loosely, a6 I al- ways do at the commencement of injuries; I bent the forearm to put it in the most easy position, and placed it ‘na trough, to my surprise, after a fow days I discove: ed the band was cold; mortification followed ; the mortification spread up the entire forearm, Above the elbow, and 1 was afraid it would not stop, but it did stop, leaving room enough to take it off below the shoulder; after the ane of some years 1am not positive as to the caure, bu’ bedeve that it was owing to the obliteration of the artery at the bend of the elbow; J fearlesely say that Ido not know the cause of it, and now kuow no other cause than the obliteration of the ar- tery; the bert means of asccrtaining the nacure of the fracture is at the time of the accident; never saw bam- doge of the arm produce mortifieation, under ordinary circumstances; I recollect the case of Miss Lowerre, tu Concord strect, in this city; te mortification there was fpeptancous: what ix unusual, mortification was in one hand aud ann: it was an uncommon case; the mortifica- tion continued to extend uj wards, and the arm became loathsome to her; I presented the onse for and against amputation, and iv wor hor urgent request that the limb shoud ye severed from the body; she died a few days af- ter, from mortification 0‘ the stomach; I did not recom- mend the ampuatign; it was her own choice, Cro: amination—A ligature can be put around the arm tight enougb to produce martification; I did mot ob- serve the ereaces ou the boy's arm, att don’t believe they were there; observed no rears, James W.
