And the degeneracy of these days. Though the men named above are evidently aryrmidons, have furnished tén thousand Greeks able to rale any country, with plenty of experleace, and not indisposed to fight about it: Now we have this Grecian trouble renewed about Mexi- co. Who will have it? Will Maximilian? Win any-other man? Who will take the place; aud realize by-and-by how excessively “uneasy lies the head that wears a crown?” The Border War Between Kansav: and Missouri, ‘ Some of the people of Kansas :and Missouri seem to have started a little civil war upon their own account. “Bleeding Kansas” las been in trouble for the Iaat half dozen years; and is in hot water still. We have often ex- pressed the opinion, which we now'take occa- sion to reiterate, that most of the sufferings’ of Kansas are caused by certain persons ainong her own population. The abolitionists of that State carry out the dogmas of Greeley, and: Wendell Phillips to their logical results. Their “shrieks for freedom,” which used to please the Tribune so mightily, are generally accom- panied with the war whoop and the rifé shot: They both preach agd practise the Mahometan doctrine of killing off everybody who will not give bis assent to their doctrines. Their favorite mode of argument was aptly ‘de scribed by General Jim Lane, in his Leaven- worth speech a short time ago. Jim Lage said that:he was once discussing the slavery question with a Missourian, who declared that he was for“ the Union as it was and the constitution as* it is.” One of Lane’s audience shouted out, Where is the Missourian now?” “In Hell,” replied thi noble Senator of the United States. “T left him in the hands of the’executioner.” The recent massacre at Lawrence by Quan- trell’s band of guerillas was the sigaal for a fieree renewal of this border war between Kan- gas and‘ Missomi. For a long time the war had besn kept up by such affairs as tha to whichJim fame confessed; but Quaatrell’ barbarous exploit again infuriated the people. On the 27th of August « meeting was beld ai Leavenworth, the Mayor of the city presiding, and before this: meeting Jim Lane made thi speech from which we,have just qnoted. A’ resolution was then pasyed callmg upon the citizens of the State to, assemble at Paola on the 8th September, andt bring with them arms, ammunition andififteen days’ subsistence. Jin Lane promised to lead this armed mob to avenge the Lawrence massacre, and he an- nounced that his. podicy would be extermina- tion. “I repeat. herp,” said be, “that for self- preservation there/ shall be extermination of the first tier of cou nties in Missouri, and, if that won’t secure us, t!yen the second and third tiers, and tieron tier till we are secure.” In the same sirain he continued:—“L am willing to take the issue ¢sf vengeance for blood—deves- tation for safety, I will tell you what I weat to see. I wargt to see every foot of ground, in Jackson, Cas: 4 and Bates counties burned oves— everything tid waste. The safety of Kamsas demands | fe devastation of the border fora distance of thirty-five miles into Missouri.” We ehe juld not waste space in calling atten- tion to these brutal ravings did not the tele- graph ¢ ssure us that this programme is about to be carried into effect. “The meeting at Paola , to-morrow,” says the telegram, “will prob ably be the largest ever held in. the State. Par gies are going in wagons with arms and rat fons from all parts of the State.” To avert the threatened attack upoa Missouri, } fajor General Schofield has issued an order Stating that “No armed bodies of men, not belonging to the United States troops or to these portions of the State miflitia of Kansas and Missouri which have been placed under the orders of the department commander by the Governors of the respective States, will be per- mitted, under any pretext whatever, to pass from one State to the other.” In anticipation of some such action on the part of General Schofield, the ferocious Jim Lane declared at Leavenworth that, “if met by the military, he proposed to carry the question to the highest authority of the government,” adding the sig- nificant threat, “Let him who dares interfere with the people of Kansas.” Accordingly President Lincoln has already been notified by telegraph that Jim Lane thinks General Scho- field incompetent and wants him removed im- mediately. The administration has so often submitted to the bullying dictation of such men as Lane that we suppose this mandate has been obeyed, and that, as is currently reported, General Hunter has been secretly sent to take Schofield’s place. But we remember that Hun- ter squelched this Lane when he was in that department before, and he may do so again. When the President removed General Curtis from the Department of Missouri he wrote a note to General Schofleld, giving him the com- mand of the department, and informing him that General Curtis was relieved, “not be- canse of my full conviction that he had done wrong by commission or omission,” but because the people of Missouri“‘have entered into a peatilent, factional quarrel among themselves.” Phen the President went on to advise General Schofield how to act. “Let your military mom sares be strong enough to repel the invaders ‘and keep the peace, and not so strong as to unnecessarily harass an@ persecute the people. If both factions, or neither, shall abnse you, you will probably be about right. Beware of jed by one and praised by the other,” ‘Tt is for President Linoola to decide whether or net General Schofield has aoted this advice.
