(hnt of hi* vote ngnin*t tho ntlml*- of Knn.nna under tho Looompton titution U tho most absurd. Tho / Democracy flippantly assert that hud not been for Mr. JtoII and one vo others. Kansas would today ho a • State, and that those gentlemen responsible for tho abolition of sift- in tho Territory and have proved •isolves unsound by opposing tho unpton Constitution. Tho ground 'ieir opjrosition was that tho const!* •u was adopted by fraudulent votes ! did not express tho will of the peo- .f Kansas. This fact lias not been, will not bo denied by any candid i, wo care not how ultra ho may bo •ho .Southern side of tho slavery -tion. Then tho question arises, dd tho admission of Kansas at. that e have established slavery in tho • Territory? I.ot us look nt this a littlo more .oly. ‘.7o,of tho South, with tho oxeeption ' a few Douglas men, contend that it hern men have the right under tho istitution to carry their slave proper* Uto any Territory,and hold it thoro long as the Territorial condition lusts, limit having that right imjiairod or iroyed by Congressional or Torritori* 1 Legislation. And moro than this,that they are en- • d to the protection of tho Federal > eminent,whenever an effort is made ;n any source to molest them in the •ymontof this Constitutional right, • I that tho only timo when this ques- n can ho decided is when the people io to form their Stato constitution juratory to admission into tho Un* i, an 1 subsequent to that timo y can modify or niter ilioir domestic litutions at their own sovereign will •1 pleasure. ‘•upposo Kansas had boon admitted i slave Stato under tho Lecompton istitution, with a majority of tho pcO«^ bitterly hostile to the institution of very, and without tho requisite pop^ ' '.ion, how long would it liavo ro* •nod so? Why of course no longer •n would have boon necessnry to bare ;on the proper stops to alter the con- lution.whieli could liavo boon done i year or two, and certainly would vo been dono by this timo, nml thoro • ild have been an ond to the whole ties, overrun tho Territory with Bottlers and tuko possession of the legislature, before the Souther^ slavo owuersenn make their nooessary, amihgements to; leave thoStatol, Thqroforil, the linger thoTerrltorlaleonditldn liists ^hot ter chance wo luw6* to cdpowith the freesoilers. If then, nt the timo of tho application for the admission of Kan sas, a majority of (Tic people wove op posed to slavery, we gained by its re jection;* for in a short time the Consti tution would liavo been altered; the Slaveholders, then in tho Territory, driven out with their property, and oth ers proventod from comiug in—and tho fate of Kansas sealed. But m long as it remains a Territory, the Southern man cannot ,bo canstitutionallg debarred from emigrating there and if possible to establish slavery. But,wonro told tlint Kansas is lost to the South, and when admitted will be a froo State. This wo believe to be true, but tho defeat of the lecompton Constitution was not the cause of it. Senator Iverson, hi hi* speech stated tho truo reason. Said lie: “Ihe foM Of" Kansas to the South was the. legitimate fruit •>/ the Squatter 'Sovereign* /y elements of the Kuo mis Xcbrasl.a Bill, us eonttruetl by its A'orthcrn authors anil friemlsP And it wnsoii account of the-o“Squat ter Sovereignty elements” that Mr. Ikdl opposed that measure in 1854, fttnl Southern Democrats now denounce it.- Mr. Dell in his great speech foretold the -vents which havo transpired, that, it being left an open question* whether a Territorial Legislature might -oustitutioiially prohibit slavery, there would ho a struggle between the North and the South to got possession of that body. The freosoilors, by means al ready mentioned, outnumbered the slaveholders, nml now control tho Leg islature; have passed lnws excluding slavery, and Breekinridgo Democrats have declared that there was no neces sity demanding protection to tho Slave holder in any Territory. This is tho conclusion of tho whole matter: Squatter sovereignty, for which tho Democratic party ii responsible, has nmdo Kansas a free Territory,and Dem ocrats charge John Bell with tho whole blanio boenuso he voted against tho Lo oompton Constitution. Such littleness is unworthy of a ureal party.

Orleans papers Ufi particulars of Gen. Walker’s execution, They ulso givo further details of liia surrender to Com. Salmon, of the Brit ish war steamer learns. Tlio Delta, giv ing the facts of tlio surrender, says: General Wulkcr, with characteristic coolness and dignity, contrasting strongly with tho pompous assurance ol tho British otficer. asked whether this demand wnk made by Ciipl. Salmon as a British otficer, and whether, if he surrendered, it would be to tho British authorities? To this inquiry Major Dolan and Capt. West, who wero pres ent ut the interview, solumuly assert that.Salmon replied “Yesyou, surrend er to mo, as u British otficer.” Tho question was repented by Gen. Walker, and the same answer given by Com mander iSuimoii, who rattier haughtily nnd patronizingly added, “You may thank mo, too, that you have a whole bono in your body.” Tlio Gunerul then told them that under these circum stances he would Hurrendor. During the interview between Walker and Sal mon, Alvarez, tho Hondurcau General, stood at the door listening. Tho men were ordered to form, and tlioir arms, ever, to their knives, were delivered over to tho British murines, who form ed a guard over them. Tlmt night, when the men were nil asleep. General Walker and Colonel Riuller were taken under guard to tho Icarus, nnd in the morning nil the men were taken on bourd the vessel, where they wero closely guarded, and not nermited to hold any conversation with Gen. Walker and Col. Rudler. On the 4th, tho learns weighed anchor, and Ateumod up to Truxillo, where she ar rived that night. On tho way all the men of Walker's party wero searched tor ) hi pel's, which might bo used for his conviction. In addition to tlio British sailors and marines on tho learns, there was a Joteo of about two hundred Hon- dttrean soldiers. On the morning of the oth, tho men of Walker’s party were marched off the ship and paraded in front of threu hundred lloudurcun soldiers. General AVulker and Col. lludbr are then formally delivered over to tho llondurenn authorities, utid the men were marched off to prison under a guard of tho British marines. They were confined in u wretched prison, with an ullowunco of ouc dollur and u half a day for tho wholo party, and closely guarded by fifty or sixty armed men. During their detention, howev er, the unfortunuto prisoners received many nets of kindness from Spanish citizens residing in Truxillo, for which they express themselves in terms of warm gratitude. While in prison they leuruei the sad late of their late belov ed and heroic commander. Walker and ltudlcr after being dolivcred over to thoilomlureaus, wero heavily ironed and placed in dark cells, and no person allowed to communicate with them.— On tho 11th of September tlio prisonei wero informed by Mr. Squires, u American, that tho General was to be shot tli© next day. Accordingly, on the morning of tho 12th tho doors and windows of tho pris on wero all closed, but through the port holes tho sad snectnele was wit nessed by Mt\jor Dolan, of the cortege which leu tho General to the place of his excoution. llo was led to some old Spanish barrack ruins about 300 yards from tho fort, and there shot. Tlio procession from tho fort consisted of two priests bearing church emblems appropriate to tho occasion, Gen. Wal ker following carrying a crucifix and lighted caudle, tho lloudurcun local otHcers in authority, and the soldier with muskets who were to purfor deed of murder. Gen Walker wa and collected—soldierlike, stern and dignified in his bearing, nnd nml these old ruins stood liko a hero and bravo man only could stand before tho point- •d muskets of hired murderers. After the first volley of six muskets verc fired, the General fell over, i front, tn tho agonies of death, when dastardly wretch rushed toward hini v and placing the muzxlo of a musket to tho General's left ear, drew the trigger, and shattered the head of him whom all feared. This was dono on supersti tious grounds, since they all believed r blue-eyed man was destined to bo tlioir ruler, and they had boon told by for eigners that General Walker was that man, and thoreforo, they wanted to sure of his dentil. After this an American, and umvill- g spectator, proceeded to act in the burial of tho General. lJis remains, however, wero viewed personally ovory Hondumm present; in order satisfy tlioir superstitious impression and barbarous tastes. A coffin suitable to tho exigencies of the occasion, was obtained, General Walker’s dead and bullet-riddled body placed within i and buried with all tlio rites of tl Catholic Church, the two priests attend ing, in a lono and untimely grave, ii the land lie so desired to redeem from benighted thraldom. Previous to his death, General Walker addressed tho natives and tlio llondurenn authorities, felt no ill feeling towards The Dcnthless Smile.
