One dns. cures th. headache arising from e luul stom ach. Strong doses often repented expel every worm from the body. They should be glvon to children, who are always more or less afflicted with this soourgs As a gentle Fbysic they have no equal. One Box cures derangement of the Liver. Half a iZox cures a Cold.

The editor of this paper, recollecting that Mr. Peters, of Genesee, who is well known as a devoted and intelligent friend of agriculture, nnd as a citizen who has filled important public stations with fiJel-ity and ability, traveled west wiih Col. Fremont, in 184S, and had frequent opportunities of iearninp- his views then, ad dressed xW. I . a note to which the follow ing is the response.- Buffalo Republic, Daribx, July 1. 1850. My Kind Friend : Your favor is lust received, r ou say that. 'Iiavinrr a hvelv recollection of your enthusiastic admiration of Col. Fremont, when, in 1848, you was a fellow traveler of his,' you desire me, in view ot tne tact, that the opposi tion are endeavoring to prejudice his claims to the popular regard to tho North because he is a South Carolinian by birth, and that they declare that his avowed opinions against the extension of slavery are assumed for the occasion, to write you, for publication, so far as it is proper to do so, what his opinions were then on the srreat question of slavery extension, which now convulses the country. Of course, I cheer- tully comply, because I wish to do lustice to the man, who seems to have been prov- aenuaiiy selected lor this crisis. I met Col. Fremont and his wife early m the autumn of 181S on the steamer Saratoga, which was then in the Buffalo and Sandusky line. I made their acquain tance soon after we left Buffalo, and as we were detained by head winds and other causes, we were together nearly or quite two days. Owing to peculiar circumstances, not necessary now to mention, our acquaintance became very intimate, partaking more of that which is the result of years, than of days. It was of the most confidential kind ; indeed, had I belonged to their own family it could scarcely have been more so. Ho was then on his way to the western frontier, to set out on another and final over- and journey to California bv a new route. ior me purpose ot malting an exploration of a section of the Continent which was yet unknown, except to the trapper or In dian. His wife was accomnanvino- him as far as VVestport, on the confines of Missouri, to cheer and comfort him with her presence till ilm last moment. And much did he need her cotnfortina nresnce. mere naa oeen no tune during his whole career, when his prospects really looked so gloomy as then, or when the stoutest heart might well quail. He had nearly arainea mo outer cup. He aid indeed j ...... ... . . . drink its last bitter dregs before the journey ended. It was on that dreadful journey that he lost so many of his brave and ever-faithful companions, and nearly perished himself. He had but recently got through with his court martial, a trial which from its in- eption to its close, was ono of tho most must and disgraceful that has ever been held in this country. Instead of an honorable acquittal and high commendation for his glorious services, it found him guilty, and in carrying out its judgment e uau Dt-eii aismissnd in the service. He new that great injustice had been done him, and he felt it keenly. He was poor, having only the nmount of his salary for his own and family's support. But this was not all, lor Congress havinff lefused to assume the debts he had contracted in tho onquest of California, he was going back mpty handed, and with the certain pros pects of every species of arrogance from that source. He was returning to California as a pri vate citizen, and with the intention of making there his future home. Some kind friends in New-York had enabled him to send round the necessary machinery for mius wnicn ne liuenaea to erect upon his uncii, since so lamous, ana so valuable, ut then only valuable as anbrdinsr a fine property for agricultural purposes. Both he nnd his noble wife looked forward to the time when they would be able to entertain their friends in theirown house. and upon their own farm in that then far off territory. Gold had not yet been discovered, and he expected to conquer success by the same indomitable perseverence that had thus far sustained him in ono of tho most remarkable careers ever run by any man of his ago in this or any other country. And it was very pleasant to see how he was cheered and encouraged by his wife, whoso notions of independence were gratified by the vast prospect of doing good which was opened to them in that new country. Neither had any other thought or expectation than to obtain an honorable and respected position bv their own industry and economy. I mention these facts lo show you that whatever opinions he then entertained and expressed were the result of a settled conviction. and not influenced by any motives of poli- s.jr. anuso vviui niiuw me man inorougn-ly, know that he is incapable of giving expression to any other than his own wefl settled and thorough convictions upon any important subject brought to his notice or discussion. Feeling great interest in having California a Free State, and feeling satisfied that wherever his lot was cast ho would exercise a great influence over those who were associated with him, tho subject of slavery was often freely and thoroughly discussed, and in the most unrestrained and confidential manner. In all cases I found Col. Fremont's opinions decidedly opposed to the extension ol slavery into free territory. He considered it a serious ovil, regretted its existence, and was most determinedly opposed to its extension. He was as strong a state rights man as either of us, believing that there was more danger to bo apprehended from the encroaohments of the general government in bad hands, than from any want of unity among the States. In all our discussions I was sujprised at his statesman- like views. There shone out that broid and comprehensive patriotism which sought for the advancement of our corn- J mon country to that high position among the nations of the earth which he consid ered her destiny, and all that he had done, and all that he had suffered, was amply compensated if he had been the means of bringing to the world's knowledge any of ner wonaenut resources, it was at such times that, despite his usual reserve and selt-control, he would become enthusias tic over what seemed to him the srlorious tuiure oi our oeiovea country. It was easy for me to see why he had held such complete control over his companions even in the midst ol such intense sufferings The whole secret was in the entire absence of all selfishness, which is one of the great charms ot Ins character. There were very many facts disclosed which showed how entirely he was opposed to slavery, and that he would suffer any privation rather than to become even a resident oi a blave fctato. But thev were so mixed up with matters which were more or less properly confidential, that 1 do not feel at liberty to repeat them. Still I may perhaps be permitted to refer to ono as illustrating his great repugnance to a life of dependence. After his dismissal from the service, his South Carolina friends, much to their honor, came for ward and tendered him a professorship in the College nt Columbia with a salary of $3000 a year, or the presidency of a railroad at an annual salary of $5000. Modest and retiring is his manners, and unostentatious in his habits, he is yet a keen observer and an industrious student. His habits of close observation which have been exercised over a larger field, in both hemispheres, than any other man now be fore the people, with his practical srood sense, give him a clearness of perception which is rarely at fault, and fits him ad mirably lor the executive officer of a great nation. Of his capacity I have no doubt. for thus far he has proved himself ade-quate to every emergency. In purity of character, in a knowledge of the wants of the people, in an indoraitablo will, and in a patrioiism that would .sacrifice everything for the true glory of the whole country, he has no superior. From what I then learned of Col. Fremont's character and opinions, without any regard to his subsequent career, I do not believo that there is a man In the Union more thoroughly democratic. So firm are my convictions on this subject, that I am .:li: ... .! . :r. V rj ,-. wiunjjj iu Bran a my mo upon nis iiaeiiiy to the principles of tho Democratic Republican party. With best wishes, sincerely your friend, T. C. PETERS. Mr. Benjamin Welch, Jr. REPORT or tbs Kanzas Congressional Investigating tonimmee. Submitted to the House July 1, 18,rG. Continued.

On the morning of thn election, before the polls were opened, eome 300 or 400 Missonrians and others were collected in the yard about the house of Thomas Stlnson, where tho eleotlon was to be held, armed with bowie knives, revolvers and clubs (112). They said they come to vote, and whip the damned Yankees, and would vote without being sworn (113). Some said they came to havua fight and wanted one flit). Colonel Samuol H. Woodson of Independence, aio., was in me room oi tne Judges when tbey arrived, preparing poll books and tally lists, and romaincd there during their attempts to organize (114). Tho room of the Judges was also filled by many of tho strangers. 115. The Judges could not agroe concerning the oath to De taken by themselves and the oath to be administered to the voters. Mr. Burgess desiring to administer the oath prescribed by the Governor and theothcr two judges opposing it 11C. During this discussion between the iudirca. which lasted some time, the crowd outside became excited and noisy, threatening and cursing Mr. Rtirgess, tho Ireo State judge 117, Persons were sent at different times by tbe crowd outside into tho room where the judges were, with threatening messages, especially against Mr. Burgess, and at hint ten minutes were given tbem to organize in, or leave; and as the time passed, persons outsido would call out the number of minutes left, with threats against Burgess, if ho did not agree to organize 1 18. At the end of that time the judges not being able lo organize, left the room, and the crowd proceeded to eluct nine judges and carry on tbe election 11!). The Free State men generally, left the giotind without voting, stating, that thcro was no use in their voting there 120. The polls wero so crowded during the first part of the day that tho citizens could not get up to this window to vote 121. Throats were made against the Free State men 122. Ia the afternoon, tho Rev. Mr. Grisputrick was attacked and driven off by the mob. A man by some called "Texas," made a speech to the crowi, urging them to vote and remain on the ground until tho pulls were closed, for fear the abolitionists would come there in the afternoon and overpower them, and thus they would lose all their trouble. For making an affidavit In a protest against this election, setting forlh the facts, Mr. Burgess was indicted by tho Grand Jury, for per jury, which indictment was louud more than urtoen months ago, and is still pending, Mr. Burgcs.i never having been informed who his accuser was, or what was the testimony againt him (12j). A largo majority, four to ono, of tho uctual settlers of that district ware fruo State men (124), and there cannot be the least doubt that tt nono but the actual settlers ;oI the district had voted at that election, the frco State candidate would have been elected. Tbe number of legal voters in tho district, 'according to the census returns, was 101. The total numbor of voles cast was 372, and of these but 32 are ou the return, and from Ihe testimony and records, we are satisfied that not over 40 legal voles wore cast ut that election.

The Missonrians said none but pro slavery men euuiiiu vuie, nun mrnnieneu, io snoot any free State man who should come op to vote (127) Mr. Mockbee, one of the JudgeB elected by the Missonrians, bad a store near the boundary fixed by the proclamation of the Governor, while he cultivated a farm in Missouri, where his family lived (128), and where his legal residence was then and is now. The Missonrians also held a side election lor Governor of tho Territory, voting for Thomas JohnBon, of Shawnee Mission (129). Tbo frco State men, CndW the polls under the control of non-residents refused to, and did not, vote (130). They constituted a decided majority of tbe actual Bottlers (131). A petition, signed by a majority of the residents of the district was sent to tho Governor (132). The whole number of voters la this district, acoording to the census returns, was forty-seven; the number of votes cast was 80, of whom but fifteen were residents! th of residents whose names are on the census rolls, wno aid not vote, was thirty-two. For some days prior to the election, cumns.- nies of men wero orgaanized la Jackson, Cass, and Clay counties, Mo., for the purpose of coming to the Territory and voting io this Fifth district (133). The dav Ttrcviriiin In f.ha pli.. tion, some 400 or 500 MissouriaDS armed with guns, pistols and knives, came into the Terrirn. ry and camped some at Bull Creek, and others at Potawatamie Creek (234). Their camps were about sixteen miles apart. On the evening before tho election, Judge Hamilton of the Cass county Court, Mo., came from the Potawatamie Creek camp to Bull creek for CO more Miesou-rians, as they bad not euough there to render tho eleotlon certain, and about that nnmhss went down there with htm (135). On the evening before the election. Dr. B. C. nfastfeii wn. elected as one of the Judges of the election iu tho Bull Crock precinct, in placo of one of "uSi,- uppuiuieu oy tne governor, who, It vuo buiu, wouiu not ne mere the next day (13G). Dr. Westfall was. at that t'n Jackson county, Mo. (137). On the morning ot me election, tne polls lor Bull Creok precinct, were opened, and without swearing the Judges, theyproceeded to receive the votes of all offered to vote; for tbe sake of appearance, would get eomo ono to come to Ihe window and offer to vote, and when asked to be sworn he would pretend to grow ungry at the Judges and would go away, aud hia name would be nut down n having offered tn vote, but ' rejected, refusing to be sworn." This arrausrenient wan mailt, viva. viously, and perfectly understood by the Judges (13ti). But few of tho rosidonts of the district were present at tho election, and only 13 r,.,n,l 1'lCA M'V... - r . l '.l uiuii uj;, i uu iiumwci ui vines cast mine precinct was 803.

Col. Coffer subsequently married in the Territory. After tbo polls were closed, the returns were made, nnd n man, claiming to be a magistrate, certified on them that he had sworn the Judges of Election before tho polls (142). Ia the Potawatamie j,reciucl, tho Missourfans attended the election, aud after throatoning Mr. Chesnut, the only Judge prcv ent appoiuted by the Governor, to induce him to resign, they oroceoded to felfip.fc turn nt Srr Judges one a lilssourian, aud the other a resided of another precinct of the district. Ihe polls were then opened, and all the MUaourlaoa were anowea to vote without being sworn. After the Polls were closed, and thn rainrna made out for tho siimnturn nf thn innVp.

Mr. Chesnut, by threats, to sign the returns, which he refused to do, and left tho house. Oq his way home he was fired at by some Missouri-ans,thoughnot injured (143). There were three uiegui io one iep,al vote glvea there that day (141). At the Big Layer precinct, the Judges . ajjyuiuieu uy ma uovurnor met at me time ap. pointed, and prooeided to open the polls, after being duly sworn, After a for? votes had beco received, a party of Miosourians camo Into the yard of the house wh era f he election was held and unloading a wagon filled with arms, stacked their guns in the yard, and came tin to thn win dow and demanded to be admitted to vote. Two of the judges decided to receive their votes,, whereupon the third judge, Mr. J. M. Arthur, resigned, and another was chosen in his place'. Col. Young, a citizen of Mipsonrl, but a candidate for and elected to tbe Territorial Legislative Council, was present and voted In tho nra cinct. He claimed that all Missourlani who wero present on tho day of election were entitled to vote. But thirty or fortv of the citizens of the precinct were present, and many of them did not vote (145). At the Little Sugar precinct, the election seemed to have been conducted fairly, and there a free State majority was polled (110). From tho testimony, the whole district seems to have been largely free State, and had none out actual settlers voted tbe free' Statu candidates would have been elected by a large majority. From a careful examination of tbe testimony and the records, we find (hat from 200 to 225 legal votes wero polled, out of 885, the total number given In the precincts of the Fifth district. Of the legal votes cast, Ihe free State candidates received 152. SIXTH PISTItlCT F0HT 31'O'IT. A company of citizens from MitEouri. mustlv from Bates county, camo into this district the day before the election, some camping and oth ers putting up at tne puuuo nouso(l47). Tbey numbered from 100 to 200 (148). and came iu wagons and on horseback, carrying their provisions and tents with them, and were generally armed with pistols. They declared their purpose to voto, and claimed the right to do so. They went to the polls generally in small bodies, with tickets iu their hands, and many, if not an voteu. in some cases tney declared that they bad voted, and gave their reasons 'for so doing. Mr. Anderson, a pro-slavery candidate for the Legislature, endeavored to dissuado tho non-residents from voting because he did not wish tho election contested (14!)). This person, however, insisted upon voting, and upon his right to vote, and did so. No one was challenged oreworn, und all voted who desired to. Out of 350 votes cast, not over 100 wero legal, and but 61 of those named in ihe census taken one month before by Mr. Barber, tho candidate for Council, voted. Mauy of the free State men did not vote, but your committee Is satisfied that, of the legal votes cast, the pro clavery candidates received a majority. Mr. Anderson, one of these candidates, was an unmarried man, who came into the district from Missouri a few days before the election, and boarded at tho publio house until tho day after tbo election, lie then took with him tho poll lists, nnd did not return to Fort Scott until the occasion of a barbecue tho week before the election of Octo ber 1, 1855. He voted at the election, and al ter it. left, and has not since boon In the district. S. A.

The editor of this paper, recollecting that Mr. Peters, of Genesee, who is well known as a devoted and intelligent friend of agriculture, nnd as a citizen who has filled important public stations with fiJel-ity and ability, traveled west wiih Col. Fremont, in 184S, and had frequent opportunities of iearninp- his views then, ad dressed xW. I . a note to which the follow ing is the response.- Buffalo Republic, Daribx, July 1. 1850. My Kind Friend : Your favor is lust received, r ou say that. 'Iiavinrr a hvelv recollection of your enthusiastic admiration of Col. Fremont, when, in 1848, you was a fellow traveler of his,' you desire me, in view ot tne tact, that the opposi tion are endeavoring to prejudice his claims to the popular regard to tho North because he is a South Carolinian by birth, and that they declare that his avowed opinions against the extension of slavery are assumed for the occasion, to write you, for publication, so far as it is proper to do so, what his opinions were then on the srreat question of slavery extension, which now convulses the country. Of course, I cheer- tully comply, because I wish to do lustice to the man, who seems to have been prov- aenuaiiy selected lor this crisis. I met Col. Fremont and his wife early m the autumn of 181S on the steamer Saratoga, which was then in the Buffalo and Sandusky line. I made their acquain tance soon after we left Buffalo, and as we were detained by head winds and other causes, we were together nearly or quite two days. Owing to peculiar circumstances, not necessary now to mention, our acquaintance became very intimate, partaking more of that which is the result of years, than of days. It was of the most confidential kind ; indeed, had I belonged to their own family it could scarcely have been more so. Ho was then on his way to the western frontier, to set out on another and final over- and journey to California bv a new route. ior me purpose ot malting an exploration of a section of the Continent which was yet unknown, except to the trapper or In dian. His wife was accomnanvino- him as far as VVestport, on the confines of Missouri, to cheer and comfort him with her presence till ilm last moment. And much did he need her cotnfortina nresnce. mere naa oeen no tune during his whole career, when his prospects really looked so gloomy as then, or when the stoutest heart might well quail. He had nearly arainea mo outer cup. He aid indeed j ...... ... . . . drink its last bitter dregs before the journey ended. It was on that dreadful journey that he lost so many of his brave and ever-faithful companions, and nearly perished himself. He had but recently got through with his court martial, a trial which from its in- eption to its close, was ono of tho most must and disgraceful that has ever been held in this country. Instead of an honorable acquittal and high commendation for his glorious services, it found him guilty, and in carrying out its judgment e uau Dt-eii aismissnd in the service. He new that great injustice had been done him, and he felt it keenly. He was poor, having only the nmount of his salary for his own and family's support. But this was not all, lor Congress havinff lefused to assume the debts he had contracted in tho onquest of California, he was going back mpty handed, and with the certain pros pects of every species of arrogance from that source. He was returning to California as a pri vate citizen, and with the intention of making there his future home. Some kind friends in New-York had enabled him to send round the necessary machinery for mius wnicn ne liuenaea to erect upon his uncii, since so lamous, ana so valuable, ut then only valuable as anbrdinsr a fine property for agricultural purposes. Both he nnd his noble wife looked forward to the time when they would be able to entertain their friends in theirown house. and upon their own farm in that then far off territory. Gold had not yet been discovered, and he expected to conquer success by the same indomitable perseverence that had thus far sustained him in ono of tho most remarkable careers ever run by any man of his ago in this or any other country. And it was very pleasant to see how he was cheered and encouraged by his wife, whoso notions of independence were gratified by the vast prospect of doing good which was opened to them in that new country. Neither had any other thought or expectation than to obtain an honorable and respected position bv their own industry and economy. I mention these facts lo show you that whatever opinions he then entertained and expressed were the result of a settled conviction. and not influenced by any motives of poli- s.jr. anuso vviui niiuw me man inorougn-ly, know that he is incapable of giving expression to any other than his own wefl settled and thorough convictions upon any important subject brought to his notice or discussion. Feeling great interest in having California a Free State, and feeling satisfied that wherever his lot was cast ho would exercise a great influence over those who were associated with him, tho subject of slavery was often freely and thoroughly discussed, and in the most unrestrained and confidential manner. In all cases I found Col. Fremont's opinions decidedly opposed to the extension ol slavery into free territory. He considered it a serious ovil, regretted its existence, and was most determinedly opposed to its extension. He was as strong a state rights man as either of us, believing that there was more danger to bo apprehended from the encroaohments of the general government in bad hands, than from any want of unity among the States. In all our discussions I was sujprised at his statesman- like views. There shone out that broid and comprehensive patriotism which sought for the advancement of our corn- J mon country to that high position among the nations of the earth which he consid ered her destiny, and all that he had done, and all that he had suffered, was amply compensated if he had been the means of bringing to the world's knowledge any of ner wonaenut resources, it was at such times that, despite his usual reserve and selt-control, he would become enthusias tic over what seemed to him the srlorious tuiure oi our oeiovea country. It was easy for me to see why he had held such complete control over his companions even in the midst ol such intense sufferings The whole secret was in the entire absence of all selfishness, which is one of the great charms ot Ins character. There were very many facts disclosed which showed how entirely he was opposed to slavery, and that he would suffer any privation rather than to become even a resident oi a blave fctato. But thev were so mixed up with matters which were more or less properly confidential, that 1 do not feel at liberty to repeat them. Still I may perhaps be permitted to refer to ono as illustrating his great repugnance to a life of dependence. After his dismissal from the service, his South Carolina friends, much to their honor, came for ward and tendered him a professorship in the College nt Columbia with a salary of $3000 a year, or the presidency of a railroad at an annual salary of $5000. Modest and retiring is his manners, and unostentatious in his habits, he is yet a keen observer and an industrious student. His habits of close observation which have been exercised over a larger field, in both hemispheres, than any other man now be fore the people, with his practical srood sense, give him a clearness of perception which is rarely at fault, and fits him ad mirably lor the executive officer of a great nation. Of his capacity I have no doubt. for thus far he has proved himself ade-quate to every emergency. In purity of character, in a knowledge of the wants of the people, in an indoraitablo will, and in a patrioiism that would .sacrifice everything for the true glory of the whole country, he has no superior. From what I then learned of Col. Fremont's character and opinions, without any regard to his subsequent career, I do not believo that there is a man In the Union more thoroughly democratic. So firm are my convictions on this subject, that I am .:li: ... .! . :r. V rj ,-. wiunjjj iu Bran a my mo upon nis iiaeiiiy to the principles of tho Democratic Republican party.

On the morning of thn election, before the polls were opened, eome 300 or 400 Missonrians and others were collected in the yard about the house of Thomas Stlnson, where tho eleotlon was to be held, armed with bowie knives, revolvers and clubs (112). They said they come to vote, and whip the damned Yankees, and would vote without being sworn (113). Some said they came to havua fight and wanted one flit). Colonel Samuol H. Woodson of Independence, aio., was in me room oi tne Judges when tbey arrived, preparing poll books and tally lists, and romaincd there during their attempts to organize (114). Tho room of the Judges was also filled by many of tho strangers. 115. The Judges could not agroe concerning the oath to De taken by themselves and the oath to be administered to the voters. Mr. Burgess desiring to administer the oath prescribed by the Governor and theothcr two judges opposing it 11C. During this discussion between the iudirca. which lasted some time, the crowd outside became excited and noisy, threatening and cursing Mr. Rtirgess, tho Ireo State judge 117, Persons were sent at different times by tbe crowd outside into tho room where the judges were, with threatening messages, especially against Mr. Burgess, and at hint ten minutes were given tbem to organize in, or leave; and as the time passed, persons outsido would call out the number of minutes left, with threats against Burgess, if ho did not agree to organize 1 18. At the end of that time the judges not being able lo organize, left the room, and the crowd proceeded to eluct nine judges and carry on tbe election 11!). The Free State men generally, left the giotind without voting, stating, that thcro was no use in their voting there 120. The polls wero so crowded during the first part of the day that tho citizens could not get up to this window to vote 121. Throats were made against the Free State men 122. Ia the afternoon, tho Rev. Mr. Grisputrick was attacked and driven off by the mob. A man by some called "Texas," made a speech to the crowi, urging them to vote and remain on the ground until tho pulls were closed, for fear the abolitionists would come there in the afternoon and overpower them, and thus they would lose all their trouble. For making an affidavit In a protest against this election, setting forlh the facts, Mr. Burgess was indicted by tho Grand Jury, for per jury, which indictment was louud more than urtoen months ago, and is still pending, Mr. Burgcs.i never having been informed who his accuser was, or what was the testimony againt him (12j). A largo majority, four to ono, of tho uctual settlers of that district ware fruo State men (124), and there cannot be the least doubt that tt nono but the actual settlers ;oI the district had voted at that election, the frco State candidate would have been elected. Tbe number of legal voters in tho district, 'according to the census returns, was 101. The total numbor of voles cast was 372, and of these but 32 are ou the return, and from Ihe testimony and records, we are satisfied that not over 40 legal voles wore cast ut that election.

The Missonrians also held a side election lor Governor of tho Territory, voting for Thomas JohnBon, of Shawnee Mission (129). Tbo frco State men, CndW the polls under the control of non-residents refused to, and did not, vote (130). They constituted a decided majority of tbe actual Bottlers (131). A petition, signed by a majority of the residents of the district was sent to tho Governor (132). The whole number of voters la this district, acoording to the census returns, was forty-seven; the number of votes cast was 80, of whom but fifteen were residents! th of residents whose names are on the census rolls, wno aid not vote, was thirty-two. For some days prior to the election, cumns.- nies of men wero orgaanized la Jackson, Cass, and Clay counties, Mo., for the purpose of coming to the Territory and voting io this Fifth district (133). The dav Ttrcviriiin In f.ha pli.. tion, some 400 or 500 MissouriaDS armed with guns, pistols and knives, came into the Terrirn. ry and camped some at Bull Creek, and others at Potawatamie Creek (234). Their camps were about sixteen miles apart. On the evening before tho election, Judge Hamilton of the Cass county Court, Mo., came from the Potawatamie Creek camp to Bull creek for CO more Miesou-rians, as they bad not euough there to render tho eleotlon certain, and about that nnmhss went down there with htm (135). On the evening before the election. Dr. B.

Dr. Westfall was. at that t'n Jackson county, Mo. (137). On the morning ot me election, tne polls lor Bull Creok precinct, were opened, and without swearing the Judges, theyproceeded to receive the votes of all offered to vote; for tbe sake of appearance, would get eomo ono to come to Ihe window and offer to vote, and when asked to be sworn he would pretend to grow ungry at the Judges and would go away, aud hia name would be nut down n having offered tn vote, but ' rejected, refusing to be sworn." This arrausrenient wan mailt, viva. viously, and perfectly understood by the Judges (13ti). But few of tho rosidonts of the district were present at tho election, and only 13 r,.,n,l 1'lCA M'V... - r . l '.l uiuii uj;, i uu iiumwci ui vines cast mine precinct was 803.

Col. Coffer subsequently married in the Territory. After tbo polls were closed, the returns were made, nnd n man, claiming to be a magistrate, certified on them that he had sworn the Judges of Election before tho polls (142). Ia the Potawatamie j,reciucl, tho Missourfans attended the election, aud after throatoning Mr. Chesnut, the only Judge prcv ent appoiuted by the Governor, to induce him to resign, they oroceoded to felfip.fc turn nt Srr Judges one a lilssourian, aud the other a resided of another precinct of the district.

There were three uiegui io one iep,al vote glvea there that day (141). At the Big Layer precinct, the Judges . ajjyuiuieu uy ma uovurnor met at me time ap. pointed, and prooeided to open the polls, after being duly sworn, After a for? votes had beco received, a party of Miosourians camo Into the yard of the house wh era f he election was held and unloading a wagon filled with arms, stacked their guns in the yard, and came tin to thn win dow and demanded to be admitted to vote. Two of the judges decided to receive their votes,, whereupon the third judge, Mr. J. M. Arthur, resigned, and another was chosen in his place'. Col. Young, a citizen of Mipsonrl, but a candidate for and elected to tbe Territorial Legislative Council, was present and voted In tho nra cinct. He claimed that all Missourlani who wero present on tho day of election were entitled to vote. But thirty or fortv of the citizens of the precinct were present, and many of them did not vote (145). At the Little Sugar precinct, the election seemed to have been conducted fairly, and there a free State majority was polled (110). From tho testimony, the whole district seems to have been largely free State, and had none out actual settlers voted tbe free' Statu candidates would have been elected by a large majority. From a careful examination of tbe testimony and the records, we find (hat from 200 to 225 legal votes wero polled, out of 885, the total number given In the precincts of the Fifth district. Of the legal votes cast, Ihe free State candidates received 152. SIXTH PISTItlCT F0HT 31'O'IT. A company of citizens from MitEouri. mustlv from Bates county, camo into this district the day before the election, some camping and oth ers putting up at tne puuuo nouso(l47). Tbey numbered from 100 to 200 (148). and came iu wagons and on horseback, carrying their provisions and tents with them, and were generally armed with pistols. They declared their purpose to voto, and claimed the right to do so. They went to the polls generally in small bodies, with tickets iu their hands, and many, if not an voteu. in some cases tney declared that they bad voted, and gave their reasons 'for so doing. Mr. Anderson, a pro-slavery candidate for the Legislature, endeavored to dissuado tho non-residents from voting because he did not wish tho election contested (14!)). This person, however, insisted upon voting, and upon his right to vote, and did so. No one was challenged oreworn, und all voted who desired to. Out of 350 votes cast, not over 100 wero legal, and but 61 of those named in ihe census taken one month before by Mr. Barber, tho candidate for Council, voted. Mauy of the free State men did not vote, but your committee Is satisfied that, of the legal votes cast, the pro clavery candidates received a majority. Mr. Anderson, one of these candidates, was an unmarried man, who came into the district from Missouri a few days before the election, and boarded at tho publio house until tho day after tbo election, lie then took with him tho poll lists, nnd did not return to Fort Scott until the occasion of a barbecue tho week before the election of Octo ber 1, 1855.
