LETTER FROM Hon. WILLIAM r. KING. Hon.
William r. King, of Alabama, has written letter,
declaring himself decidedly opposed TO the leading
compromise Of the last session of Congress. The
admission of California into the Union he pronounces
an act of Injustice, and says that could have
felt more indignant than he did this partial and un-
Just Legislation. The bill abolishing slavery. under
certain circumstances, in the District of Columbia,
he says he could have given his sanction to under
any circumstances, and he takes the ground that he
should feel ii a bounden duty for the repeal
of the emancipation clause whenever proposed. He
declares that he would again, as he did at the last
Congress- for the repeal of the Mexican law pro-
hbiung slavery in Utah and New Mexico. He al
SO repudates all connection with the Union party.
