And what is the s‘ate of the Union ?

The hist grouud of equality is about to etep from under the Southern people, by the bad policy, and worse faith of a party, that still suppiicattb for existence and power ! Power is to them existence—without they die. We l.ave trusted time and again—and the past and the pre sent prove conclusively that, in or out of power, j they are equally imbecile—;giving no security to our j rights in time of peace, nor affording safety and protection to them in time of tiouble.

I have always 4loubted the patriotism of a party that threatens the disolutiou of the Union; i have no confidence in the honesty rr integrity of any man or patty, who changes his principles, o r adopts an antagonlstical policy, to gain office and power.

StepheiiM* Eciici- v-No. |. A lexander H. Stephens has at last published a lot ter, answering, that he is a candidate for Congress, was nominated as long ago as the first Tuesday in j iYlay by county meetings, in which his intimate | j friends took a leading part , but he whs silent. In I j Columbia county a < ommittee was appointed to en. I I treat him to relinquish his real, or affected intention j to retire., but the public were not informed of their I progress and success in their labor of love. Tlie delegates from this District to the Democratic State Convention in June, formally recommended him to the people—but his lips reuiaim'd sealed and his pen lay idle. Menu while great questions were stirring the public mind. Ail Georgia raised an outcry against/ the course of the Governor of Cansas. The American ~arty founed t heir worst apprehensions concerning the President, realised in the ijnrebuked conduct of liia agent. The Democratic party in Stale Conven tion, pronounced a deliberate condemnation upon the agent, and conditionally upon the President him self. And then began that curious war of forces, probably without a parallel in the history of Amer ican politics. Official iufiuence soon created a chill ing counter-stream to that warm gnsh of Southern feeling which inspired the action of the Convention. This influence first manifested itself in faint whispers, then in more audible murmurs, then in open recom mendations ot caution and delay , and finally, in positive censure of the Convention and the irnpu tatiou of base motives to its master spirit. The party was soon borne away on the recoding tide. A few of the stout-hearted resisted at first ; but the prospect of being deserted by the body of their brethren was too alarming, am! they have almost all yielded to the prevailing current. While this contest was going ou, men looked anxi ously to see where their old leaders stood. It was no time for neutrality, for procrastination aud'inde cision. Mr. Stephens had never been remarkable for diffidence when an office was to be got, or an opportunity offered for au advantageous and sale display of Ids national powers ; and he was expect id to speak out among the foremost. But he waits almost two months after the Convention—waits till he sees which way liia party is drifting—and then appears, paddling his canoe in the same direction. Much of his letter consists in stale remarks about himself, his past course in Congress, aiieu suffrage, squatter sovereignty, the Cincinnati platform, the resources and comparative growth of the South, and paragraphs in American newspapers. These sub jects are dismissed in a style that makes us suspect that his mind was not vigorously excited iu the composition, or tliat it has passed its meridian. A more lamentable exhibition of intellectual poverty we have seldom witnessed from so distinguished a mail. Perhaps a decay of intellect was either the cause or the consequence of that potitical perversion which has *4> sadly clouded his fame. ‘Nothing but the most blinding rage (says he) would have caused any body to see tliat any thing could have been worse for the South ihant-he pro hibition against slavery, nut on iu 1820, and which the Kansas bill removed.” What but the most blinding rage could make Mr. Stephens see that a prohibition always prouounced unconstitutional aud uugatcry, and now so declared by the Supreme j Court, is worse than a bill, which, as carried out by the President of his choice, is now practically ex 1 eluding slavery from Kansas, and vtk* supported by I his Northern allies on the ground that such would 1 be its effect. A nominal but powerless (because I unconstitutional) exclusion was removed, and an effectual aud permanent exclusion was put in its place’ And t his is the great performance on which Mr. Stephens so prides himself. Again, he arraigns the Southern Americans who eouaeumed the Kansas act as a useless and factious agitation of the slavery question, because their members of Congress last year voted against a reso lution deciding that Act “unwise and unjust. Is j he such a consummate dunce as not to see that this resolution was another useless and factious agitation of the sani“ question, and therefore might consist j eutly be opposed by those who deprecated the original Ac: Men are sent to Congress to do prac tical legislation, and not to pronounce abstract judgments either of praise or blame upon the work of a preceding Congress. Mr Stephens says, that after his favorite meueuie —the Kansas Act—was firmly established, lie “in ’ dulged a strong deeire and wish to retire ” This 1 wish does not seem to have been made public until ’ he had himself renounced it . and then, as if to coui j fort those of his friends who wanted to succeed him, he tells them new that they have missed their oppur , tunity, aeity ty a Ullle. But he cannot retose a seat in Cougrees “ai this particular juncture.” Ambi -1 lious men cau always find a juncture that calls for their services. The” only “juncture” which he speci fies in his letter ie the necessity for detruding the Kansas Act iu the next (./ingress and with charac teristic modeely he hints that no man but himself is adequate to that mighty task ; for on no other sup | position is there any urgenl call on him to forego his “wish and desire for retirement. So we are to 1 have another dnal light over this boasted “finality.’ i Aaording to Mr Stephens the question was finally >eit!edhv the AvJ itself in 18h|. At the next session ! u was again finaiiy settled by a debate, in which 1 be took a pr-miiueut part, on the significance of the ! eUa-tions in the fall of Thai year, ll was next finally 1 settled IB Lite deteai of the edortato repeal it in tlie , last t'ouprve- Again it was finally settled by the f last Presidential cle- lion.

I J Augusta. Aug. HI, 1857. For the Chronicle 4* Sent inti. .Hr. .Miller at Tbom*on. Tuomsob, Qa., August 26, 1857. j Mr. Bpitor:—According to previous notice, given through your columns, the Hon. T. W. Miller addressed s portion of the people of Columbia coun | iya* this place to-day. I wish you had been here j ad I am sure you would have felt proud to claim ! him as your fellow-citizen. The dear, candid and 1 logical manner in which he discussed the political lncs'wn* that have been, and art now agitating the 1 country, and the very unenviable fight in which he j Held up the supporters and defenders of some of | these public measures, elicited, not only from his j American friends, but from many of the opposite j party, tlie warmest applause. In his introductory j remarks. Mr. Miller alluded to his position as au I Old Lira- Whig, and referred briefly, but eloquently, I to the Constitution and its able defenders. Truly did lie moke tLe hearts of many Whigs rejoice, iu re verting from suck scenes—snch times as these —to the acts of the immortal Clay ; and from the mani festation we saw ffom thefce present to-day, you may fcet down the Whig vote of old Columbia for Tom Miller. After showing that ail veettcnal agi- tations might have been avoided if a proper course bad been pursued by the dominant party, he refer red to Mr. Fillmore s position on the Missouri Com promise, and the ejjects of its repeal—reviewed the le gislation of 1850—spoke of the territory acquired by the into epidity and bravery of the eons ot the South, and* boldly advocated the doctrine ol’ non-interven tion, as contained in the Utah and New Mexico bills. To the principle (non-intervention) of the Kansas bill he was not opposed , but deimunced moat emphati cally the alien suffrage and squatter sovereignty feature as a cheat imposed upon the South by North ern Abolition ( Sts and Southern duplicity. He condemned both Walker and Buchanan, aud demon strated forcibly the folly to 1 trail for Ike message.” Os tlie great Abolitionist the “Isothermal Law,” he left the people well informed; aud so many val uable extracts did he read from Governor Walker’s Topeka speech and inaugural address, and so un inLdakable iu meaning were they that positively our Democratic friends could not hold up their heads. He approved of the famous Third Resolu tion, passed by the late Democratic Convention, at MiJledgevine, and exhibited clearly the fallacy of the peciert now lined to avoid it, that it was intend ed to denounce Walker onljt, and tu>l Mr. Buch anan. Os Mr. Stephens he had but little say, until he (Mr. Stephens) said something for himsell. lie sifted his letter, aud endeavored from that precious document to locate him, hut couldn’t exactly do it , said Mr. Stephens had accepted the nomination of no parly; was a candidate of the dear people, claimed all classes us his constituents, whether citi zens, actual residents , or not. Verily, little Alic had better give us a call soon, and set matters right, or, my word for it, he will not find Jire enough in Old Columbia to make his “.s kiltet bile.” After on address of a couple hours, Mr. Miller concluded by soliciting tiie suffrage of those only who believ ed that lie was right. Colonel Miiledge was then called on by tlie audi ence, and in a speech of about an hour made one pi his happiest efforts—one long to bo remembered by the Americans ; and, I think, not eoon to be forgot ten by the Democrats. ii.vNsAS.

At a meeting of the American party of the 121st aud 12Hd Districts, held at the Poor House, August 2*Jtli, 1857, Alexander Deas, Esq., was called to the Chair, and Mr. Win. G. Whidby requested to act as Seprefcajry. Mr. Deaa, on taking the Chair, explained the oh* jeet of the meeting in a few, well limed and perti neht remarks. On motion— Resolved, That a committee of five be appointed by Ihe chair to select the names of three gentlemeh fropi each JJistript, as delegates to Ihe nominating Convention to assemble in Augusta on ihe Jet Tues day in September next, to nominate a Legislative ticket for the county of Richmond. The Chair submitted the following gentlemen as composing said Committee, which was unanimously adopted, viz: —G. B. Hack, Thos. T. Brandon* Robert Wiggins, Win. 11. Jantes, Jessce K Ai ring tmi. The Committee, after retiring for a few mo ments, reported through their chairman, G. B. Hack, the following gentlemen as delegates from their respective Districts: —123d District, Messrs. S. Barney, Geo. W. Duvall and Jessee K. Arring ton ; 121st District, Messrs. W. 11 James, Green G James, Hanson Tarltop. Tlie meeting adopted the report of the Commit tee. Alpheus M. Rodgers, Esq., being present, was called upon and proceeded to address the meeting iu behalf of the American party and its nominees. Although an old line and heretofore, a consistent Democrat, as a Southern man and a (ieorgian , he felt it his duty iu this canvass to cast off party affil iation. and sustain those who are opposed to the present freesoil tendencies of the Administration, as developed in its Walker Kansas policy. lie disc ussed, at some length, the course of Gov. Walker in Kansas, and denounced iu decided terms the complicity of the President in a scheme so viola tive ol the plain letter and spirit oft’ e Kansas Bill, aud so detrimental to the beytinterests of tlie Boutn. Wishing to rebukejlhe treachery and fraud of the Executive, and looking to the parties as organized in Georgia, lie could see no course left for honest, and patriotic nun to pursue but to sustain tlie Ame riean parly and its nominees. This he was ready to do with a zeal only equalled by the importance of the contest. His address wae marked by clear deductions and logical argument, and characterized by ability and devotion to Southern interests. lie was greeted through its delivery with rounds of enthusiastic ap plause. On motion— Resolved, That the Chronicle \ Sentinel be re quested to publish thez‘- proceedings. A. Devs, Cli’mn. Win. G. Whidby, Be4*-ry. For the Chronicle 4* Sentinel. A ( loud Khitm in ( olnmbin County. Mk. Editor You v ill please Allow me a little space in your paper. There is quite a cloud rising in our county (Columbia), and fnun what I can learn it is all over the State. Some of the Democ racy are denouncing old Buck, and some are com mending him, and saying that others had fired be fore they were ordered, while some are afraid to 4>pen their mouths, fearing they may commit themselves, as other* have done ; and the whole mass have very unpleasant forebodings on ac count of the old line Whigs they have nom inated., and, bye-the-bye, which they were ob liged to do or lose their whole ticket. Now, you know, there is a United States Senator to be elected (he next Legislature, tlie Democrats say Johnson or McDonald must be the Senator; yet they see that the old line Whigs have a squinting towards Toombs, and they are afraid to feel about the matter for fear the cloud will bur?t You will see that if the Dear crate elect their ticket in this county, when they come to the Seuat4>r's election, they will lose two thirds of their votes and save one, while the old Whigs vill save two-thirds and lose one; when they do not really compose one-fifth of the party with which they are acting. Here is a party that cannot shine without bejLgried by the old line Whigs, and then it is only offe-third of a shin). Another cause of complaint with the old line De mocrats is, they have an old leader in ibis county who has been badly treated. He has been on the track a long time, and been run furteen times iu the day and twice at night—that is, he was trained at night and only had two uiglite at that; while his competitors had regular day training for months, lie bad large odds to contend with, and a piney woods soil for a turf, aud he never could win a race. 1 mean an October race, not one of the little Janua ry quarter races. He knew lie could not win, but was willing to show fight, although the odds were against him. Now w hat do you suppose party tricksters have done w ith him. while he yet retains that fine talent, form, action and strength that he ever did ? Why, now, when the odds are in his favor, the track become firm, and the old horse could win a race and retire with credit in hie old age, they have with drawn him from the turf, turned him out upon the commons, and have t-nteied three of the biggest headed; biggest-footed, and most beef legged stock they could start Why, air. if these three horses had the odds to contend with that the old horse did. they w’ould not get half around before they would fall, and they never w’ould be beard of any more. Shame upon men tor treating an old veteran as this old horse has been treated! I hate a mean thing, if I do it myself. As Observer. Colombia county, Aug. 25. Crime Properly Pr sishko. — The Boston courts have had on trial a physician, named Holman alias Levery, and a Mrs. lfobinson, on tae charge of at tempting to extort money from a gentleman by threatening to accuse him of criminal intercourse with Mrs. Robinson, who is a wife a member of the Suffolk bar. The woman, it appears, has been practicing for years this species of extortion, get-tiug very large sums ot money from timid men. The last intended victim had the moral courage to refuie to be pluck ed, and brought his case into court, where a jury gave a verdict against the parties engaged in the conspiracy, and they have Wen sent to the State prison for five years. This crime ie frequently prac ticed, and is on the increase, from the unwillingness of injured parties to appear in court. Men have been known to pay repeated sums to such harpies, rather than endure an exposure, though every ad ditional compliance with the demand for hush money only places the victim more completely at the mer cy of the viiiany which extorte it.

Walker was in town on Thursday alter -1 noou, and remained closeted with the editor* of ihe I Herald of Freedom (In? free State organ) for :[,ree or foln hours. A Free Mate Territorial Convention —to organizes party within the free Slate part v— was to be held near Prairie City ou Friday, and in this scheme; of course, our Isothermal Talleyrand is deeply lDtereated. - “Sir. Brown, having received his instructions, left immediately for the country, to prepare the wav for the morrow's convention. “The ci uyeution was simply a mass meeting packed—of Tree State hunkers and disappointed of tiec-seekere. • ■, “VV T. Huberts—defeated in his aspirations for the governorship aud United States senator-ship was unanimously chosen President ; Q. \y ;i rowu the most unpopular public man in Kansas—Walker perhaps ezoepted—was chairman of the committee on resolutions and wire-puller in gentral. “There was a fine dinner prepared, some say at the Governor s expense. 1 “Amongst the resolutions adopted by the Conven tion are the following : “Jit solretl, That while we have the Governor’s pledge, auu f/icoagi Kim the President's that we shall be protected in our • ighte, that the Constitu tion about+o be framed by the pro slavery party shall be submitted to the vote of the whole people we will onraelves act in good faith, nothing doubt ing tliat wS shall be as successful as our most san gume hopes promise, until pledgee andkopis have both faded ; then we shall be ready to joui in any reasonable efforts tn forcibly fate possession of rights which could not be secured by ordinary means. “Resohed, That inasmuch as names are necessa ry to designate parlies, we suggest that all persons who are willing to join in mutual effort to secure the freedom of Kaueas without reference to past ac tion, and who are willing to make the object sought paramonut to any particular mode by which it is sought, or in short, for tns time being, paramount to any and all other questions, be known to each other and to the world by the name of—ihe free State party of Kansas.'’ Here Governor Walker is actively engaged in gettuig the Black Republicans to the polls, in order that the pro-slavery party shall be defeated, aud endeavors to get up anew party, “the free State party.” The Richmond South publishes an extract from a letter addressed to the Editor of that paper by a member of the Constitutional Convention of l\an- sas. “The folio wing is a specimen of how iar the money received Irom Washington has been mude use of to effect the ruin of Kausas: Whitfield said to me in conversation —What are you men going to dr with the Constitution ? I replied, I had oue vote and oue vo ce, which should be used most strenuously to make a pro-slavery Constitution and send direct to Washington—uo reference whatever. He rejoined—ls you do not consent to refer it, 1 will call a meeting of the National Democrats, de nounce you, and memorialize Congress not to re ceive your work. It matters not what followed; but this will show you what immense efforts are being used at Washington to control the Conyen tiou. Governor Walker sent specially for me, and, after four bouts of the hardest talking he over had in his life, failed to convince me of the truthfulness or expediency of liia reasons for submitting his pet idea to what he is pleased to call the people. The articles in your paper are pointed and strong, and we acknowledge the great benefit it has done the cause in Kansas by inspiring the true Southern men independent of party witii hope and success. Let me tell you, sir, as a member of the Constitu tional Convention, a member of the last Legislature, one of the committee that reported the present Democratic platform on which we act, andas inva riably a member of all the political Conventions held in Kansas, that the members of the Goustim tionql Convention arc all right, Ji I had to select from the whole South, I do not know that I could improve upon them. 1 have conversed with most of them ; they are strenuously opposed to reference, aud you may be assured that whatever we do wili be done directly to effect the all-important making of Kansas a Southern State—Mr. Buchanan, Mr. Walker, or Mr. Anybody else, to tlie Contrary. We can neither be intimidated by fear or seduced by favor. Gov. Walker is iu a miserable plight ; he is backing down very sensibly, and were the opportu nity presenteij, would back down altogether. He is treated with cauteifrpt by the Black Republicans, and, to a great extent, he lias lost the confidence of liia party.” Iu confirmation of the above letter, we submit to our readers extracts from a letter received by ua, not intended for publication, dated Lecomptou| August 15,1857, but which, we trust the w,iter will pardon jis for publishing, on account of public considerations : “A few days ago, wliile ill Leeompton, Governor Walker sent for and rqquested to see me oil par ticular business. 1 attended, aud found him and the Secretary, Stanton, alone. He said that, believ ing that 1 was no demagogue, he had desired to have a full and f&ir understanding with me; and that he was anxious tliat I should be place,; j„ p u ,. .session of the faeis of his political life. “I had a long interview with him, perhaps two hours. He commenced by paying well merited compliments to Carolina’s greatest statesmen. (The writer is a South Carolinian ) He spoke of his de votion to the South aud her interests; his anxiety at one time to possess the whole ot Mexico to be added to the Southern domain. “He spoke of Ilia efforts to savo the finion, but believed ’twas nearly too lato. “Ho spoke of his being misrepresented at the South (which lie did not prove.) “He regretted his Topeka speech—ought to have been more ctear—thought he was addressing Demo crats (all Abolitionists ia that town.) Thought (witii me/ that if lie lmd known more about Kansas people, never would have acted so. It would have been better for Mr. Buchanan to have sunt him out on a pleasure excursion first, aud then appoint him afterwards. He tried to enlist me in behalf of his infallable free Democratic State of Kausas—how it would keep up the equilibrium, and be friendly to tlie South. My reference to the once free Demo cratic State of lowa and Wisconsin staggered him. “Upon pressing the question very close, and be ing tired of the retail of parly stuff that I wus sick of, i asked him—'Well, Governor, what sort of con si jtutfoo do yoti want us to make V “He said with great emphasis : If I were a mem ber of your body i would proceed upon the follow ing basis—Clause No. 1 should guarantee to tho owner whatever of slave property he may have at th“ time of tho adoption of the Constitution. Clause No. 2 should make the execution of tlie fugitive slave law a constitutional injunction. Clause No. It should operate against any confiscation whatever. (This last is to be taken iu connection with his model free Democratic State aa if it were necessary for a pro-slavery constitution to provide against tho con fiscation of their property, Dy their dear good con servative National Democratic Free State friends.) These three clauses embrace his Excellency's view of the negro question, so far as the embodiment ol* the Constitution is concerned. “He stated tliat if we would only submit our Constitution, so aa to get a universal vote, he would pledge himself, in the event of the Abolitionists beating us, that lie would put them down and their Constitution to the bit'er end. 1 called the Govern or's attention to the inconsistency, by asking him with what grace could he treat the Abolitionists so, after having invited them to vote, and acknowledg ing their light to do so t Could he theu blame tbeia or put them down for any result that would natural ly flow from the exercise of such rights : He used every effort to bring me to his views, and appeared to be muoii mortified that he was not successful. In fact, we parted with tlie determination on my part of resisting more than ever any effort made to refer the Constitution.” Our readers will see with what art and skill G-V, Walkerapproac.be; this Southern man. Ilis ian guage to the abolitionis s, no doubt, is of quite a different character, as they will see by the resolutions above, thev have passed, and the expectations they disclose. Our letter writter concludes his letter as follows : “I have seen a large number of the delegates to the Convention. They are almost unanimous against any reference of the Constitution for ratification by the people, and the few that are in favor only go back to tlie registered voters. I have not yet heard of or seen the first delegate in favor of Warker's reference except , i.nd lie is reared almost to death /” Steam Hon Carrier. —The Philadelphia Bulle tin lias tlie following description of a “steam hod carrier,” which was in operation on anew building in that city ou Thursday : The motive power was a small locomotive-look ing steam engine, upon wheels, which, although sta tionary at tlie time, looked as though it could be moved readily from point to point. A mammoth hod, holding twelve or fifteen times the quantity of bricks and mortar which could lie carried by the stoutest laborer, was whisked to the top of the build ing in a trice by the sami od carrier, with the aid of a crane and a block i tackle. One man at tended the engine, anoti loaded the mammoth hod, a third attended to ; %fe delivery lip aloft, and without toil or fuss at the little steam engine did the work of full -an men. In the Department of Ei.ei tricitv, an im portant fact has recently been added to the sum of human knowledge. It ha* been ascertained that the iiame of a blow pipe is from twenty to thirty times more electric than an ordinary flame. The remarkable conclusion has been come to that there is a voltaic current, aud that of no mean intensity, due to flame, and not dependent upon thermo electricity, or electricity developed by heat It is believed that, by attaching tn a powerful pair of bellows a tube front whieh a row of jets proceeds, and alternating pairs of platinum n flames urged by the jets, a flame battery might be produced which would produce chemical decomposition, and all the usual effects of the voltav p ! ’• The Fioht on Devil s River —From the offi cial report of Liiut.

Mr. Editor ; When in Washington City last erf March, 1 was asked, how I liked the appoiuimeut of Hon. K J. Walker, as Governor of Kansas ? I I replied, that 1 thought it would do very well. But what do yon think of his opinion that Kansas will hp n fr<.. Vi .. . . be a free State. My reply was, t'lat Mr. Walker knew no more about the sentiments of the people of the Territory than others : aud all that we asked of him, was. to attend to the duties of his office, and not shape his course with an eye to making Kansas a free Stats. Bnt, said another, your old friend, Mr. Stephens, gives it as his opinion that Kan sas will be a free State. I gave a similar reply, aa m the first instance : stating that 1 was a citizen of the Territory, and knew as much of the wants and wishes ot the people, as auv person, not a resident. Soou after Gov. Walker’s arrival in the Territory, Hon. Mr. Orr, of South Carolina, made his debut at Leavenworth, and it was circulated over the Terri tory, that he had declared, that the soil and climate of Kansas were uusuited to slave labor, and that the South did not want it, or need it, as a slave State. The scheme to make Kansas a free State, was concocted in Washington City early in the winter. Gov. Walker s visit to New- York, previous to leav ing for Kansas, his sayings there which elicited a complimentary notice in the Herald, his luaugu r&l Address, <fcc., &c., all prove this. In fact, Mr. Editor, it is now openly avowed, that if Kansas is admitted as a free State under Mr. Buchauau’s Ad ministration, it will deprive the Black Republican party of the North, of their “political thunder,” and tin. Democratic party will succeed at the Presi dential election in 18ti0. At the meeting of the Territorial Convention, on the second Monday in January last, and during the whole eesßion of the Legislature which followed. I never heard a doubt expressed by a pro-slavery mau, as to our ability to carry th_e Territory at a lair election, with the then resident inhabitants. Ihe gieat ado made in and out of Congress last year, about the “Missouri invasion,” about the elec tions in the Territory being carried by the votes of our neighbors, Ac., Ac., is not forgotteu.

P a,ty were for peace in the leirßory, aud m pursuance of the re commeudations of the Convention, the Legislature proceeded to pass an act providing for the call of h Constitutional Convention. All Ihe provisos of universally admitted to be equal and tair. But lo aud behold, so soon as it was found that the pro-slavery party were willing ro test the strength of parties at the polls, and put an end to disputes, the Abolition party cry out “bogus I ecis ture,’ we will pay no respect to its acts,” “ W e will have nothing to do with the Convention ” They refused to have their names registered, and most, of them refused to vote at the election. It being knowu to the pro-slavery party that there would be no fbrmidable contest at the election, a very small vote was polled. * But UOW, persons Sent here, since the 15th ot March, by Aid Societies, hundreds of miles distant, are to be put upon an equality with old citizens, and these are to decide the question of the complexion of our constitution! or his Excellency Gov. Walker will use all his influence to induce Congress to re ject it : and in this he is backed by the President and his Cabinet—and all because it will insure the - suc cess of the Democratic party in the /’residential election in iß6o—the great National Democratic party—the only party in favor of Southern rights, and the only party ths.t ea;t save the Union 1 !! ’ The movement in our convention to abandon the names of “pro-slavery” and -‘law and order” party and adopt that of the “National Democratic Party “ 1 flliillirlif of tlir* timo (vunrakf mUI. f i c i 1 thought at the time fraught with mischief, and earnestly opposed it. ’lhe majority of the conven tion had no fears of improp ;r motives and the move was swallowed as o measure that was to in sure the adoption ~fa pro slavery constitution. f care not for the opinions of politicians and office expectanls. Having ri sided iu Kansas seventeen months, 1 give it as my decided conviction I hat, slave labor in no part of the Union can be made more profitable than here, and slaves are about as much needed as in any of the Slates. True, we do not want droves of titty or a hundred, as on cotton sugar, and rice plantations, hut three or four ser vants connected with every family, would be as usolul as elsewhere. The fact cannot be disguised, that if the settle ment of the territory had been left to the ordinary laws governing emigration, Kansas would he a slave State, without the possibility of u doubt. The movement of the Administration noon Kan sas affairs, I hold to bctiie most dangerous innova tion upon the rights of tbs people that has yet oc curred, II sustained, I have no hope for our coun try. The repeal of the Missouri Compromise will turn out to be the greatest calamity that could have befallen us. If foreigners flock into our country as within a few years past, and Aid Societies at the North oonlinue to hire men to go into the territories to decide the provisions of constitutions, our insti tutions will be at an end. Our convention meets lo a few weeks. Pour delegafes from ibis district will prove true to their trust. I hear that others will be found faithful io other districts. I hope must ot thedelegates will be Ann, and if our constitution ia rejected by Congress let the responsibility rest where it properly belongs. Bks.i.
