Previous to Ibe election iu Kansaa Gov Walker received specific instructions from the Administration relative to his duty on iWi subject, and which precluded him from purging the poll, as he recently did iu rejecting the Oxford district. Acting without authority from Washington, and clearly violating the inductions sent him, bis conduct is emphatically condemned. There is reason to believe that both Governor Wal ker and Secretary Stanton will be removed unless they shall choose to resign, and it is I believed their ohances of being recalled are tjj^ prevailing ones. m [second dispatcu.] New York, Nov. 2. Gov. Walker and Secretary Stanton have been compelled to leave Lecompton on account of the threats made against them by the pro-slavery party. They are now on Secretary Stanton's claim at Benicia, two miles from Lecompton. Sheriff Walker, the newly-elected free State Sheriff of Douglas county, and a small po**t, stayed with the Governor last night, (Oct. 20tn.) A special messenger has been sent to the Fort for Col. Summer's command. A document has been circulated in Lawrence, inviting Gov. Walker to come there, and pledging the citizens to protect him. [tuird dispatch.] Wasuinqton. Nov. 2. fciTlie government has no official information from Gov. Walker relative to his purg ing the poll of Oxford preoinct, and until this can be received there can be no definite action by the administration. It was certainly a violation of his instructions which will not be peimitted to go unsettled ; and the executive disapprobation win be expressed, tuere is reason 10 believe, in a manner which may at least lead to the resignation of both Governor Walker and Secretary Stanton.

Judge O'Neali, and the Banks.?The Caiolina Spartan says: " We are glad to see that the fearless and incorruptible O'Neal! is hurling his anathemas at the banks from the Bench. In his charge to the Grand Jury at Union Court, he called attention to this subject, as one belonging to the Grand Inquest of the State, lie does not hold that their charters |fiV0 infill uiiiiiiJiicu yi?wnr IU wur* mjui> j ^ to the people. lie wild ibr* 'the bank*, a' i present, instead of being beneficial to the J people, had become mere brokers' offices, and should be made to know their proper places' Once tlioy were shielded under * vested interest,' and a charter once granted could Dot be amended or repealed. The pre tention could not stand the test of examina tion, and has been abandoned. Now, the Legislature can amend, modify or repeal at pleasure. And this is the true grouud ; for no Legislative body has power to enact irrepealable lawe. Laws are to be made for the good of the people, and whenever tlisy operate injuriously, it is the bounden duty or tho Legislative Authority to blot tbein froio the statute books." Homes and the Panic.?The New York Tribune states that the derangement of tho money market has had a most disastrous effect upon the market for horsea.? Horses which cost their owners were sold lately for $174 in that city, Another horse, which a year ago had a standing offer of $1 ,ffOO, was sold for $300; and a handsome bay, for which $000 was paid lust summer, and not considered dear at that, brought bn! $I2Ti a few diys ago. idmtiijom <?>rAttynst ~ V.

This case elicited considerable interest du- ^ ing the trial, which occupied the Court from th Vednesday morning until Friday morning a> f last week. The prisoner was charged iu Si he indictment with tho murder of Waruen di Ieed on the 2d day of May list. al It cannot be expected that we would re- at neml>er the whole, or even the greater por- > ci ion of llm Avi.tanon ibnt wm nfivtiinnil noon I ll ,hi* trial. Hut theao are about the fact*: ol Tn the day above stated a company muster |> a as held at or near Rowland's Old Store, in S his District. An election was also being tl leld at the same time for Colonel. A di.s- 01 Kite arose between the prisoner aid a broher in-law of the deceased, about jumping gi which resulted in a series of fights, in which vi .he prisoner, on one side, and a man by the to tame of Finlev ami the brother-in-law of li< .he deceased, on the other, were engaged, il \fier the parties were separated, an effort tl was made to take the prisoner away, and in aj it tempting to do so ho was followed by the C ither parly, which had by this time been V ncreased by the appearance of Warren ir LIkkd, the deceased. The prisoner warned tl hem not to approach him ; but disregard- si ng the warning, or failing to hear it, and inconscious of the weapon which the priso- V ter held in his hand, the deceased rushed n ipon him, and in attempting to take holJ h >f 111 id by (he coiiar he received the ucndly If vound from the knife held in (he left hand M >f the piisoner. The affair was seen by a hi lumber of persoas, all of whom testified to S he materiul facta we have given above. But b< is it was seen from nearly every stand point, fl t may be supposed that some slight discre- k i.ancies may have been noticed in the testi d raony. What we have stated appears to us n is being about the facts of the case. si The examination of witnesses occupied the tl whole of Wednesday, and until near four ij s'clock, P. M., of Thursday, when the argu- || ment for the prosecution was commenced by [I. Lek Thhcstok, Esq., who, in a short but ?i forcible speech, contended that the prisoner ? at the bar was guilty of murder; tbat mur- ? der was the killing with malice aforethought, h and that to sustain the charge of malice, it t< waa not necessary to prove a premeditated hatred or iutention, but that it might spring ^ up at the moment the blow wae struck, or A at the time of the occurrence. It wae also ti contended that whenever a human being r came to his death by violence, the law presumed it to have been done with malice, and the offence was murder, unless something could be shown in evidence which would justify or excuse the commission. He also alleged the provocation as being too trivial to justify ttie murder ; that aithuugh an as sault made with violence or circumstances of indignity upon a man's person, and resented immediately by the party acting in the beat [>f biood upon that provocation, aud killing Lite aggressor, will reduce the crime to roan daughter; yet it must by no means be understood that the crime will be so extenuated by any trivial provocation which in point of aw may amount to nn assault; violent acts )f resentment, bearing no proportion to the provocation or insult, aro barbarous, pro- j needing rather from brutal malignity tuau ( mtnan frailty, and thai barbarity will often j nake malice. The defence of the prisoner was comnenced by S. D. Goodlbtt, Esq., who ad.ressed the jury about thirty minutes. lie j jonleni.cd that the act was committed in selflefence, upholding his argument from the ^ estimnny in the case. Maj. B. F. Pbrry bllowed in one of his best efforts in behalf >f the prisoner. He enchained the audience or one hour and a half in a speech replete * vith characteristic eloquence and reasoning. ^ The prosecution was closed by Solicitor ^ Iked, but as we were compelled to leave the * ourt room just as he began to speak, we did ' lot have the pleasuro of listening to his able ^ eply. The Court adjourned about 8 o'clock, c ?. M. On Friday morning, after a brief h barge from his Honor Judge Munrob, the ase was given to the jury, who returned, af tl or an absence of two or three hours, with a o erdict of Manslaughter. t< The prisoner was sentenced to pay a fine f one thousand dollars and be imprisoned g >r twelve months. h Kansas.?Treachery Consummated- v The appointment of H. J. Walker as h iovernor of Kansas was calculated, at the ? utsel, to give satisfaction to the South, and ^ lihough some misgivings might have been (< (pressed, nevertheless the South generally s< :quiesccd in tie appointment. But from h ... .i?.. \\r ... ? - - iw u<?j "albkii enioreu ino territory of " ansas, and commenced his career, it was ainly to be seen that it was his settled de- j( nnination, so far as his influence and posi- Q| 3D might extend, to make Kansas a free v< ate. Knowing this, constant requests have ,n ien made by the South to the President to j?' ivo Walkkk recalled. Georgia and Miswippi?the latter State the home of Walk i?in conventions assembled, demanded s speedy recall. To these demands Presi fr nt Buchanan took 110 notice whatever, jj it suffered Walker to proceed, until by 4 acts Kansas bas been forever I091 to tin* fl >uth. B Recent despatches from Kansas stale that K Talker, by his proclamation, has rejected J! e pro-slavery vote of Sahonne count*, jJ( fd given certificates of election to the free C late candidates, thus giving to that party a A sciJed majority in the Legislature, lie ^ so allowed, in other counties, the votes of ildiers belonging to the U.

This treachery on the part of C ^ alkku has rendered the South powerless ^ i Kansas, and so emboldened her enemies tat she can look for nothing more than in yi lit and a total disregard of all her rights, d What matters it now to the South if P! i*ai.kk.h l>e recalled or not! lie can do vv o further harm.
