This demand is proposed by the committee to be greatly restricted ; the schedule thus amended to be then submitted to the people of Kansas—and contingent up- —who have hitherto hung fire—have determined to j on their acceptance of it, Kansas to be admit' approve the bill reported by the Conlerence Com mittee, and that to-morrow’s action will show that ted under the Lecompton Constitution.

The Kansas imbroglio wiped away, Congress will go to work, and finish up its important business.

We see no difficulty therefore in agreeing to the proposition. With the constitution, Con gress has nothing to do,—that is a question for thepeople of Kansas. With the schedule, it is wholly different, for Congress is to be a party to the provisions which Mr. English proposes to amend. It is in fact a contract between the State of Kansas and the federal government, —and both parties have an equal right to be heard. This may be said, and it is all that can be said on the other side.

Indeed, the only delay was in trying in vain to in duce tlie Banks of South Carolina to Join in this rea sonable, just and salutary measure. Those Banks bare offered no reasons for declining to join in the movement, and we offer none in their stead, except the following, taken from their own recent report in tho public papers, which ebons they would not, be cause they could not. Fivo Banks out of Charleston had a circulation of £1,473,000, aud only £148,000 of coin. And four Banks in Charleston had a circulation of £3,713,000 and only £251,000 of coin. Let the people of Georgia ponder theso facts, nnd remember, that all these Banks in Sonth Carolina have largely increased their circulation since their suspension, and that their day of resumption, if it ever come, is very tar in tbe future, or else they may be caught with a very undesirable currency in exchange for their cotton. Tho Banks of South Carolina have hitherto en joyed tho full confidence of the public, but they must not expect to live always upon their credit— they must either pay, or at least snow their ability to do it. What amount of time drafts they may hive to pay in New York, in addition to their immense circula tion, is not stated, hut it is known that many of their liabilities have been adjusted by such tempo rary devices, which do not pay, but only defer the payment to a certain day, nnd to another place. They propose to be preparing for a resumption at an early day, but if at the end of six months, with a plethora of coin in the country,, they are farther re moved from the ability, than when they suspended, we may judge that tbe period is not only very dis tant, but getting more remote.—[Georgian. that the question submitted is an allowable and proper one.

The preparation having had jhe test of years in its appli cation to disease, its remedial virtues are fully* es tablished and known to thousands in every section of tho country. In all diseases of the Kidneys, Bladder and Urethra it has proved itself, so far superior to every other preparation of the kind, that the demand very far exceeds that of any other “patent” preparation now in the market; for PAIN IN BACK AND LOINS; LEUCORRHOEA OR WHITES; GONORRHOEA AND GLEET; STRANGURY, DROPSY, GRAVEL; OBSTRUCTIONS, Ac., Ac., it is one of the most, if not the most reliable prepara tion now before the people ; so also, in all IMPROPER AND DEBILITATING DISCHARGES from the External Organs, which has proved the curse ana bane ofthe existence of so many thousands it is a remedy in which every reliance may be placed; for its curatative properties in theso diseased con ditions have been so lur established as not to admit even the possibility of a doubt. As a remedy for many diseases peculiar to Females stands pre-eminent above all others; and its cura tive effects in this class of diseases has perhaps serv ed more than any other, to give the preparation the ide spread popularity and notoriety that it now en- joys.
