Mr.. Kitchel thinks he is able to show "mosi
incontrosertibly'' that there is no danger Of
the introduction of slavery INTO this state even
ifa convention should be called. His only ne.v
argument on tins point, is this" Slavery was
not admitted in 1878; therefore it cannot be
admitted now" Does not Mr. Kitchel know
that nearly ell the leading conyentonists are
avowedly in favor of slavery, and that its intro.
duction is their principal object Does he not
know that many persons who in 1918, pretended
to be opposed to slavery, well knowing that
the state would not be admitted into the union
with slave constitution have now thrown off
the mask and openly advocate slavery, beGey-
ing that, since our admission into the union.

NhoH1NGlON3 JUNE y.
The Committee Of iauestigation, con-
vened on Monday, IN The Hall of the
House of Representatives, and spent
their sitting in settling some preliminary
points as 10 the mode of proceeding We
understand they agreed 10 send tor seve-
raj witnesses both in and out of the Dis
trict OF Columbia.
The sitting OF yesterday, we are in
formed was principally spent in examIn-
ing Mr.. Lloyd, OF Massachusetts, as 10
the usage OF Banks in relation TO the dis
junction between general and sheclai de-
postes. Mr.. Edwards being engaged,
as ii is said, in preparing his rejoinder
to MIR. Ora Words communication 10 the
Committee upon the suggestion of the
Committee, and for the purpose OF &C
celebrating their investigation, ii is said
Mr.. Cook attended TO examine the wit
nesses on his part. The indisposiion of
Mr.. Crawford, being such as TO proven,
his personal attendance on the Commit.
zee, Mr.. Forsyth, we also learn, attended
to examine on his part.
We understand Mr.. Edwards has re-
quested that the inyestig may be
conducted publicly, in the presence Q!
all who may wish TO attend it. Whether
the Committee has agreed to that course,
we have not understood, but presume
there will be no objection to ii. Jour.
JUNE IL.
The Committee Of Investigation has
been assiduously engaged, since our last,
IN the examination OF a grea, nu nlber OF
Witnesses, in relation to the matters refer
red to it.
Ii is said that the most clear and
positive proof has been adduced, show
ing that loans Of considerable sums OF
money we're made by the Secretary of
the Treasury, in 1919, to several of the
banks in the District of Coumbis, of the
public money, part OF which have no,
been yet repaid and that part of wha,
rerlains unpaid, il is ascertained, is not
likely to be repaid at all.
j is said that all the clerks, or nGarl,
SO, belonging to the Office OF the Secre-
,ary of the Treasury. have been sxa-
mined, as to their knowledge OF The re-
Iceipt Of the letter of The Receiver at Ed
lwardsville, by Mr. Crawford, and tina,
none OF them have any knowledge on the
subject. Nor does it appear that the
Secretary ever consulted any Of them, as
to their recollection Of lis receipt, ex-
cept Mr.. Dickins, who made out his re-
port Of the a2d March, 1924, before he
made his report in which he stated that
the officers Of the Treasury had no re-
collection Of it. There has been consi-
derable examination, it is said, on the
subject of the affairs OF the bank of Mis-
souri,, but we have not learned what was
disclosed on that subject, except that all
the moneys received by it, were entered
as general deposite, to the credit of
the United States, and therefore liable
to be paid in cash: point, which il
seems was heretofore doubted by some.

flR' L kINItR,
A lite paper is issued from place
in Edwardsvile, and distributed at pub
lie meetings by the convention tlec-
ioneerer,, which appears to have neither
editor, trfnter, habiisher, nor Proprietor,
his extraordinary omission has proba-
bly, taken pace because no one is will
lag to be accountable for the infamous,
scandalous, and detestable liDels which
are promulgated by that paper. But it
seems the daslardly and cowardly assss-
sins of individual reputation, who are
thus skulking IN the dark, and slabbing
the characters of those who are too var
uoos TO cooperate with them 10 their
unholy designs, are not content with Will
lying the characters of indiviJ oals, but
are altering and publishing the loulest
libels against the state they inhablt.
a piece appears in The last nunber of
the paper alluded to, in which the writer
asks, " What can the farmer sell bis
produce Tor, the. presen, summer? Can
be get a silver dollar for any thing he
raises? What are his prospects for the

Kinney, the late treasurer, the auditor,
the Hon John Reynolds, Henry Eddy,
Esq. Sidney Breese, Esq.--have these
gentlemen declared that slavery cannot
be introduced? Has Doctor John Todd,
one of the convention candidates in Ma
Olson county, declared that slavery can
not be introduced Has the atlorney-ge-
neral declared that slavery cannot be in
troduced? Have Gen. White, Gen. Har-
grave, Gen. Duncan, Col. Ewing, and
Judge Will, declared that slavery cam
not be introduced? No. Not one OF
these gentlemen has so declared. Who
then, ask, are the MeraH of the con-
venuon party? Nobody, except a few
unknown, irresponsible scribblers, who
advocate slavery in their private CONVEX
sation, but in their writings say that it
cannot be introduced, or that it is not the
object, or any thing else which they think
will enable them to deceive the unwary.
As to the Mterati and every body else
who are opposed to the convention, they
do say that slavery cannot be leg ally in
Jroduced, but they have never said that
il cannot be introduced illegally, and in
violation of the compact of 1887. Men
continue to be free agents--as free as
Adam was when he ate OF the forbidden
fruit. They have therefore the ho4Oer
TO violate compact, or law, although
they cannot legally and righ1utiy do so.
The " Farmers Boy" again says, "
would now ask, what possible INJURY it
could be to the state TO call convention,
il being outofthe hozpcr ofthe heoate 10
introduce slavery, even il they zvere de-
sirouS OF doing so 20
| answer that if you can convince the
convention party that this assertion is
true, there viii no; be the slightest hance
Of having convention called at this
time. Throw slavery aside, and the
convention party will have no object of
sufficient ma gnitude and importance to
induce them to vote for the measu,e.
The great object oil calling a convention
noau is to permit the minority to Intro
duce slavery; but leave slavery cut
OF the question, and there will be no ne
cessity with any party for calling con-
vention until the Sc, eral counties can be
more fairly represented in that body.
But the /" Farmers Boy" cannot make
his party believe proposition so ridieu-
Ions and absurd, and do not think that
he believes it himself.
l ain very willing to admit that slave
ny cannot be introduced so as to be pro-
fable 10 the slave holders. Should a
slave be able to obtain assistance, he
might sue for his freedom before the
United States courts, and in al proba-
b!ity he would obtain it. AT all events
slaves would be extremely difficult to
keep in this state. People who have
settled here in the belief that slavery was
forever prohibited, would not be the
most jealous persons to take up runa-
way slaves. The introduction of slavery
would produce perpetual discord, for it
is as difficult to anslgamste the friends
and the enemies of slavery, as it to mix
oil and water. For these reasons, if
believed there were any advantages in
slavery, would remove to Missouri, or
some other slave state, where could
enjoy them in PEACE. I.

Colvn of the. Washington Gazette, bac lsed by

i'inns &c. Where is the evidence of his in
triguess HE disposition OF Pennsylvania to
support hint-the prcferment of Nnan Ed
wards charges against Mr.. Crawford-the 9TH
July letters, &c. These are the specifications.
but we look inNvan for the proof which sustains
them They have every one, originated from
the press of JOHN Il. Colyin, and that gentle
man stands SO hSh with the moral world, that
his assertion is an all times equivalent to proof
Upon no better authority, has Mr.. Calhoun
been branded as an intriguer, and deaouncoJ
as such, through the Enquirer, to Virginia.
Every action, eyeryword of his, has been mar
rowiy watched, reported to the proper authori-
ties, and converted by them with malignant in
genuty into food to sustain this baseless hypothe-
SIS. Trace all these assertions to their source.
and they will be found to have at first issued from
the same mint of prohigacy, the Washington
CITY Gazette-traclSt them in their progress and
they will be found to have been circulated only
by such papers as acknowledge Mr.. Colvin as
good authority, to wit: the Advocate Demo-
cratic Press, &C. We might ask If Mr. Cal.
houn is an intriguer, are not also MIR. Crawford
and Mr.. CLAY? In the personal character of
MIR. Calhoun, we have an assurance which is
worth the assertion Of 10000 Colvins, that he is
incapable OF an action morally depraved.
Sd. But he Isl latitudinarian in his construc-
ton OF the constitution Perhaps he is, and we
are sorry that heis. But as Vice President ne
could have no controul over that instrument
not as much as a member of Congress. But
truly, tins objection comes most gracefully, from
the friends of MIR. Crawford, the a.ivocate of
the National Bank, and the deuouncer of the
large States, for opposing it. From the friends
OF that rigid expoui,der of the constitution, Mr.
Clay, the objection comes with irresistible force.
but we very readily agree. that mir. Calhoun's
constitutional opinions an objection. Let
us however, balance them against Mr.. Clay's-
the scales will be poised, or Clay's will kick the
beam. On this score they are equal-or if eli
Their has the advantage, MIR. Calhonn,s hostility
to radical tariff, gives it to him. In other re-
spects the arguments for supporting Calhoun id
preference to Clay, are conclusive.
