Present State of the Kansas Question.
A Legi_slatui‘e, elected by an armed"
band of ,in.vade‘rs from Missouri, some
time sincepassed an act requiring the peo-
ple of Kansas to choose delegates to a
Coustitlitional:Convention, and so arran-
gell_I;_l:e manner” of electing those dele-
' gates as to ensure a Pro slavery majority.
The people-of Kansas refused to obey the
“commands of this spurious Legislature,
"but 391318 2000, (about one tenth) of the
voters of the, territory held a mock elec-
‘ tion__ and appointed an entire set of pro-
slaverymiembers of the Convention. A
That body met and framed a. Constitu-
' ‘tion which recognises, and provides for the
continuance of slavery’in_Ka.usas, at any
rate-_; ___but by what is termed a scliednle
apuexed-, directs a_ vote to be talten on.

sea in the-Constitution ;.o_71e, as we before

llQWj._flleI’8;.{llld their "posf.erit.y ; tl_;e_ other

from the other ‘states. '
The former clause is to remain in the
Eonstitutioii’anywa.y ; tllelattcr is tobe
struck out, if -the vote “For the Cons_t.i-
tution. without Slavery” prevailt. ,
- _The Constitution is exceedingly objec.
tioiiable in other respects ; establishing a.
State'Bauliiiig System and legitimatisiug
' “'all"the enormous iniquities of the bogus
Legislatlilje. ' . .
;. ' Blit, by this scheme, all the people are
required to vote for the Constitution any
way, and if they vote “m'tl1n~ut slut-er-9,”
. they only prevent the importation from
abroadleaving Kansas, in either event, a
slave state. - ’
;An_d_'this is called szl.ln}z{ssioiz to t}2e.peo-
pie ! _' Let us suppose a siinilar case. For
many years an effort has been made in

rected to be submitted to a vote of the
people. Slippose then the Convention to
meet and discuss the propriety of an elec-
tive Judiciary, a State Baiiking law, a
Cominon"Sc_liool System, etc. etc. Then
having drafted "the ‘Constitution, suppose
it to direct'a,p‘opl'i1ai'vote upon it to be
taken‘ in this wise ; ‘f Fm‘ the Constitu-
tion with an Elcctivc,Jildicia'ry,” or_“Fo7'
the Constitution without? an Elective J u-
diciary.” Who so blind as not to see‘
that this wo_uld be no sllbinission to the
people at all ?’ _
The 'Admihisti'atioli has ‘determined to’
dragooil Kansas into this farce of la. sub-
mission. Every Adniinistratio'n paper in
Coniiecticut sustains the despotic sham.
‘But there are symptoms of revolt.-
There are some 'who will not submit. It

" Double, Double, Toil and Trouble.”
\Vhether James Buchanan wrote a let-
ter instructing his faithful subjccts how to
vote at ollr recent Municipal election, or
iiot, as he did in the ease of the New
York city election, has not yet transpired,
but certain it is that divers of the unter-‘
rified dared to assert their manhood .so
far as to vote for candidates not on the
‘regular ,dimmeci-atic ticket.’ Among
those charged with this heresy was our
redoubtuble Sheriff VaiiZaudt.~ He was
arraigned before the bar of the democrat-
.iu Slop Bowl, with the ancient democrat-
ic Chanticleer on the bench, assisted‘ by
his ever faithful coadjutor Steplien. The
guilty Sheriff could offer nothing in ex-
teliuatiou‘ of his guilt, and therefore. be-
giuito quibble about the coiupeteucy of
the Judge—even boldly accusing him of
gettiiig up a Van Bureu-split.-and thus as-C
sisting iii the election of Old Yn'ck——that
subsequently he took up for a dyed-in-the
wool—Whig, procured his election, con-
tributed money for the piirchase of C tar
barrels, and was chief in instituting di-
vers other disgraceful proceediiigs on the
night of celebrating the aforesasd victo-
tory——thut moreover, while his honor
claimed for his position the very apex of
the democratic dung bill, be was never-
theless a chronic bolter, so much so, tllat
the faithful in solemn caucus assembled,
never dared to nominate according to
their wishes, for fear that he would bolt"
etc. etc. Wliereat the gallinaceous Judge
grew exceeding wrath, and the .. saintly
Stephen waxed red in the face—~aud all,
forgetful of the ‘ harmony’ so essential to
democratic growth in spirit-ual things, in-
continently dashed at each other as if to
reeilact the charge of the One Hundred.
The Judge did not stop to swear witness-
es, but swore horrible oaths himself, which
the Sheriff sent back with intenser fumes‘
of Tartarus wliiclitlie judge again return-
ed with compoiiiid interest. The melee
assuming the nature of a free democratic
fight all adjournment was made to the
side walk. Here an onset was made up-
on another, whose name follows Hebrews
in the Testament, but’ after receiving sev-
eral skulking blows, it became known that
he voted the ‘clean t.icllet.,’ and he was let"
off. Another who recently bid’ fwreurell
to ‘our side’ got a clip under the e’e, star-
ting the claret ; another whose name alid
position on this ever memorable occasion,
reminds one of the ‘fliolls’ den.-” was an ac-
tive participant iii the shindy, while yet

for the late Fillmore party, tendered his
kind ofliees to quell the mass, but was re-
quited with a blow llnder the car, and
was heard to go off muttering solnetliing
like the following refrain:

Let old and young’uns kick and bile
For ruin doth make them so——

Messrs. Stephens and Banks were desig-~

On Tuesday, the l’residciit’s Message
was sent to both Houses, In the Sell-ate,
Mr. Douglas, opened the Kansas ball ill a
few guarded but signiIica.nt. remarks, in-
dicating his purpose to oppose the accep-
tance of the Lecoiuptou Constitutioii.——
Messrs. Gwili of Californi, Stuart of
Michigan, Trumbull, Hale, and Seward
likewise broke ground against the dodge.
Messrs. Jefl'. Davis, Mason of V a-., and
Bigler of Pa., indicated their ciitire agree-
ment with the President.
Ill the House, the subject of printing
eurosscd talking moments of the Session.
There was a good deal of vague talk
about corruption, extmvagaiice, etc., ill
this dcpartineiit of expenditure ; but when
Mr. Grow suggested the true relnedy—-
a‘ giving out of the work by contract to
the lowest bidders—tliei'e was no response
from the stronger side of the House. No
Printer was chosen.
I’l<asinl’-:.\'r’s Massaos.
The Message opens with the financial
crisis, its causes and reinedies. Tlle
President thinks the evil has arisen froln
“our extravagant and vicious system of
paper clirrency and bank credits ;” and
the remedy lic proposes is the tllepassuge
of a bankrupt law for banks and railroads,
alid then rely on “ the patriotisiu and wis-
doiu of the state legislatures to require
banks to keep always one dollar ill specie
for three dollars of liability.”
“ Olir relations with foreign govern-
ment are, upon the whole, in a satisfacto-
ry conditioli ;” but upon Central Ameri-
can aft'aii's, the Pi'eside'ut frankly confess-
es that he has had enough of the double
constructions of the Clayton-Bulwer and
Hoiidliras ,ti'ca.ties, and prefers liegililliiig,
(le ’/l0’l70, upon it basis of straiglit-fol‘wal‘d
and honest international stiplllatioiis.—
Tllat-‘s right.
The negotiations with Spain, are hin-
dered by the failure of Congress t.o appro-
priate niouey to pay for-the free Africans
of the Amistad, released by law, under a
decree of the Supreme Court.
On Kapsas alliiirs the Message is" long
and sophistical. Ml‘. Bliclllluull afiirnis
that the bogus law calling the coiiventioli
“ was in the main fair and just ;” that
the submission of “ the question of
slavery” to the people is a coinpli-.inc.e
with the act of Congress ; that “domes-
tic institutions” means slavery only, alid
that the election on the 21st of December
will beheld under legitimate authority,
and if any portion of the inhabitants
shall refuse to vote, a fair opportunity to
do so liaviug been presented, this will be
their own voluiitary act, and they alone
will be responsible for the consequences.
With regard to Brigliam Young and
his rebellious Mormons, the President
i'ecoinmeilds a decisive course of action,
and to this end he asks for four addition-
al regiments to the army. ‘ '
He recommends a t.eri-itorial govern-
ment for Arizona, (the Gadsden coun-
try,) and pleads the duty and the full
poweiiof Congress to construct “ a mili-
tary railroad” through our own territo-
ries to the Pacific, but contends only for
the Southern route.

Another Vast Steamship.
Just now the Allrial.ie, whicli lately
sailed from New York, is the largest ves-
sel afloat in the world, but the Leviatluui
or G rent Eastern, will greatl y surpass her,
and all cngiiiecr, Clare, of Liverpool, pro-
poses to build a ship l()00 feet long, 70
beam and only 30 feet from deck to keel,
niakiug her perfectly flal.—l.ioltoined, and
her sides nearly square. She would car-
ry 30,000 tons and yet witli a draft so
light that she could enter New York liar-
hor, which the Leviatliiiu cannot do.
Clare has received -eiicour-aging consid-
eration fl'olii the English goveruinciit, and
if the Leviatliaii slicceeds there will doubt-
less be all attcinpi; to build this monster

A.-\'o'l'lii~‘.R Kansas Co.\liNG.—'l‘lie or-
gaiiization of the Indian territory, south
of Kansas, of which the Cherokees are
now the principal inliabitailts, will proba-
bly come before Congress this winter.
It will be recollectcd that Gov. \Vall;ei',
of Kansas, in one of his many niessages,
suggested to the slaveholdcrs, as a conso-
lation l'or the probable loss of Kansas,
that the Indian colintry of the south
would soon be open to them, and that
they could witliout'doubt- make a slave
State of that. John Ross, the head chief
of the Clie.roke.es, ill his late annual mes-
sage t.o the collucil of his tribe, alludes
to this suggestion of Gov. Walker, and
recommends that a delegate be sent to
\Vaslliugtoii to make filial and definite ar-
rangements with the governluellt. Neo-
slio is the ualne proposed for the new ter-
ritory. Oue scheme. is, to cut it up into
two or three territories, to be made illto
slave States hereafter, and thus secure
Soutlicrll pi'epoii(lei'ailee ill the United
States Senate

THE Sci-ili'l'i.r.l>. FRAITUS IN THE CUURT or
APPEAI.S.-\‘\Te publish to day the lead_
iiig opiiiioli, given by Judge Seldou in the
Court. of Appeals, in which the decision
in ‘the case of the Mechanics Bank, against
the J."8W York and New Haven Railroad
Company, is reviewed and nai-rowed dowli
to the single point that the false and fraud-
lileut. rc-presentntioilsof Schuyler not hav-
ing been made to the plaiiltifls in that suit,
and the certificates of .stock not being
negotiable, the plaintiffs could not re-
cover. Iu the case before the court, the
New Haven Ra.ill'oa.d case was pressed
upon them as all authority for the doc-
trine tllat, astlie teller of the bank has no
power to certify checks, unless the draw-
er liad fulids in the bank, tllerefore the
defendant was not liable ill that case, be-
cause the bank had uofllllds of the draw-
er. '
By this recent decision, it seems that
the IIO'7l(L _flI/C holders of the Schuyler cer-
tificates, who received them for value
from Schuyler, can recover their dama-
ges against. the company. Judge Sel-
doll seems to have taken great pains to
define precisely the ground on which the
leaking case was decided.
