/ort Lancaster, Texas, Oct. 16, 1867.
f
LeUer from Hon. R. M. T. Hunter.
Th« tetter of Senator Hunter, or Virginia,
heretofore alluded to defining his position
towards 4he adntinbtration of Mr. Buchanan,
and Geverqpr Walker, was addressed to T.
A. Leach, of Ofaarlotteferilte, V*., and pub-
lished ih t^e Jeflersonian of that place. Af-
ter remarking that he does not respond to
the.aMvrrogatories. propounded to hita in con-
sequence of the demands of f&e Richmond
Enquirer,"he proceeds tosay—
Bub to proceed with the answers to your
laterrogatoriea I hare to say, first, that the
imputation of hostility, on my part, towards
the adntttnstratioflrof Mr. Buchanan, is found-
ed upaa nothing that I have cither said or
done. I voted for .him as President, and
not bnly eatertam no filing of hostility, to-
wards htm, hut I wish him success. He as
only to carry oat the principles of the , Demo-
cratic party, as we understand them in Vir-
ginia, to command my cordial support. These,
so far as applicable, • will afford the test by
which I shall judge his administration, and
support or oppose its acts, as they owifonu
to, or depart from those principles. Nor shall
1 be disposed to apply that test in any
captious, or unkind spirit, but as justly and
fairly as L can. More I could not say for
any Administration or man. I never would
commit myself to support unconditionally,
the future acts of any man, but I will judge
them as they anise, to sustain them when I
believe they are right, and to eppose them
when I think they are wrong.
- .. ♦ ,;,£. * . * \ ' * *
My opinions upon all the great political
issues may he known through my votes and
speeches, to those who feel enough of inter-
est in them, to took into my past cour>e ;
and these will afford the best evidence of the
tests which I shall be likely to apply, in judg-
ingof the conduct of public affairs. ^ hiist
1 remain in the Senate af the United States.
I shall stand there as the representative of
the principles and interests of my State, so
far as I can understand them, and in the pur-
suit of these objects, I should not scruple to
differ, if n cessary, with any administration.
In saying this, it may be perhaps fair to add.
that I hope and expect to be abie to support
Mr. Buchanan's administration in the main.
Entire concurrence in the views of any man
it would be too much to hope, or expect.
J answerto-the other interrogatory which
you propose as to the conduct of Governor
Walker, in Kansas, I have little hesitation in
*ayii)g that I disapprove it. The Kansas
Nebraska act was passed under the hope that
this, the last of^th^ territorial questions, in
voiwing the suljjeqt of slavery might b«* set-
ttedwpoo *0;t>e common ground-where a par-
ty could 'be rallied from the North and the
South, the East and the West. stronjr enough
to dtfeml the Constitution against the assaults
of its enrtni^s. and to administer the povern-
ment justly upon other than purely -eetion-
al ideas. . Tip rally* party which uii-^ht he
able to maintain the Union uiioij c«>nstit:i-
tional principles; was an.•>,-ject of higWftoliti-
cal importance and justified some s
'of feeling, and even of mtertSt. A«-ivoHi,i<rh
the biil was hot >i ch s would have l>een
framed by the delegates ol either -action, it i
it had heeq snhinitted to them atone. Many,
perhaps most of the Switherrmien (of whom
1 wa.-One) hehVtvd th-it property in slave*
was much. entitl«Sl to the jirote.-twn of law
in the Territories of the United States. a<

Northern friends of the Kansas act would
not concede }h^ ti)$y agreed to- un'to in re^
pealing the JUamKl^i rfestnetiqit so to re-
move the win under which the domestic in-
stitutions of th^, South -had been placed by
fedetfcl legislation-. Accordingly, a hill was
passed open tlie principles of non interven-
tion. m regard to slavery. eiv-Tar as the Gen-
eral Government Was concerned, aifd ^-hich
left {hit whole subject within the control of
the heupto- of these territories, when .they
tho Id apply tor admission as States.. This,
although nol ail ire thought the Sout^ en-
titled to. was a great advance upon the ol 1
Order Of things, so far a* she was concerned.
bKnttjt removed an unjust and odious dis-
mmina'tioft against hdr domestic instStntion*,
front «hesUtate book, a moral triumph which
was of vast importance to the South and to
the institution of slavery itself. Nor could
the North object to a bill which merely car-
at a principle by which it had recently
1 so b*gefy in the series of acts, dehomi-
i as the Compromise Measure. To all
it ought to have been a subject of congratula-
tion utat a common ground had been found
Where a party might be rallied from all sec
tkma of t£ie country to administer the gov-
ernment justly, and without sacrificing the
eooMHrtmaai righto of any portion of the
Union. The sdte hope of accomplishing so
happy a result depended upon submitting
thn question of slavery to the people of these
territories, when they came to form their con-
stitutions as States, without interference of
any sort on the part of the General Govern
ment. With the decision of the people them-
selves, a* fcr so the character of the heir
States was cowned, the democratic party
-of all sections declared they would be satis-
fied. To Mill, then, the conditions of this
agreement, it was all important that there
should be no interference on the part of the
Penetnl Government, either through its Le-
gislative or Executive influence. Any snrh
—*—* 1 was calculated to. dissatisfy the
the other. Under sueh cir
it was in my opinion improi er
far the highest Executive officer in the Ter
p, the Governor of Kansas, ta attempt to
the decision of the people of that
quired a final ratification by the people. The
practice of States applying for admission, as

With -regard to the abstract propriety of the
particular recommendations of Gov. Walker,
«1'do not feel called upon fo speak. That is a
matter ftrthe decision of the convention it-
self.-with which I ought not to interfere,
The abstract propriety of these recommen-
dations depends upon circumstances, of which
the people of Kansas, aeting through their
conventions, are rhe best judges; To them I
leave it as their own affair. As to which
course would conduce most to t eir peace
and a fair settlement of the question. I should
revuirc a greater knowledge of the actual
state ofafikug in that territory, to enable me
to decide, i
'' ^With these answers to your interrogator-
ies, I might here close this letter, except that
I infer you desire to know how far my opin-
ion in regard to Governor Walker's conduct
may effect my course towards the Adminis-
tration. What are the precise views of the
President upon these questions, I know not;
I await their development in toe regular
course But should he differ with me upon
these matters, I do not see how any practical
issue can arise between him and those of his
friends who entertain other opinions in re-
gard to Governor Walter's course. I say; I
do not see how any practical issuu could arise
sut of this matter between the Pre-ident and.
those who might differ with him in regard to
these things, because I do not believe for a
moment that he woald aid in an attempt to
reject the State, if Kansas shoqld apply for
admission, merely because its Convention
did not Choose to submit the Constitution to
the people-for their ratification. Upon such
a question as this, in regard to the right of
Congress to limit the power of the people to
form their State Constitution according to
their own pleasure, provided it be Republi-
can in its character, t should think there could
be no division of opinion amongst the mem-
bers of the Democratic [tarty in any seetion
of the Union.

49*&r. McLane, the inventor «f the celebrated Liver
1*111-.prepared by Fleming Bros, i'itisburg, Pa-, used
tlie>e PilU for several years in his piacttce, before he
could be induced lo offer them to the public ill such a
manner as to make them known throughout the coun-

fhat all high minded men of science feel in entering
the lists against those nu-crupdlous empirics who ob-
trude their useless nosltum$ upon the public, and re-
ly upon a system of puffing lo sustaiu them. Con-
vinced, however, of the real value of the Liver Pills, and
infloeneed by the plain Dictates ofduty, the Doctor fiu
ally authorized Fleming Bros., of Pittsburg, Pa., who
are now the sole proprietors, to manufacture and
place them befoie the public. This great medicine
has not disappointed the expectations of bi<s friends,
the medical faculty, at whose instance lie was induced
to place them before Hie public iu their present popu-
