TgRouGH FRANCE REVOKED In announcing this
agreeable intelligence, we only remark at present.
that so far as could learn, il was the opinion OF
those who had the best means Of forming a correct
Judgment upon the case, that the refusal of the French
government to permit Mr. Soue to enter into France,
which, unexplained certainly appeared to be an act
OF discourtesy, and manifestation of unfnendly
sentiments towards the United States was the result
of erroneous impressions and that, when the matter
was fully examined The order would be revoked
We are reioced be able to announce that this ex-
pectation has been realized. Mr.. Soue has not only
permission 10 enter into France, hut has probably
already avaied himself of it, and is his return 10
Madrid This informatin received by the last
steamer, est in time to be forwarded to the United
States, unaccompanied by any explanation which
alluded to it.
The conduct of Mr. Mason in this delicate and
unpleasant affair has been, it is understood, eminent
ly judi cious and proper There was nothing in the
state of our relations with France which could have
justified any act of unfriendliness towards this coun
try and we presume that this feature of the case,
strongly marked it when first presented, will
be removed by the explanations which probably &C
companieL the revocation of the decree by which our
minister to Madrid was deniel entrance into the
territories Of France. We reserve further comments
upon this affair until this explanation is known

Kansas.

The question as to the future position of Kanzas,
whether as saveholding or non-saveholding State,
seems to attract considerable attention throughout
the country, which appears to US to be only NATURAL
but it is certainly difficult to reconcile the conflicting
statements made by letter writers from the Territory
unless we take for granted that in all cases the wish
is father to thought, and that correspondents of
Northern papers take for granted that slavery is to
be excluded from the future State, because they de-
sire it so to be- and that the ether hand Southern
men writing from there take the opposite view in &C
cordance with opposite state of feeling A New
England man writing to the Boston Post, from Fort
Leavenworth SAYS -
"There is no cause to believe that slavery will be
introduced here. Pro.slavery men themselves con-
cur in this opinion all around. And this state of
things is not owing entirely to the large immigration
from free States Our popul aion includes very ma
ny OF the from Missouri and other slaves States
who have not the requisite capital TO be propreors
of slave property, and who, moreover, preceve that
their own labor would be cheapened and otherwise
impaired by slave labor. Their vote will be much
against slavery as that of the parties which came
from New England and the Western States. 1t is
true there are slaves now in the Territory,
but they owned by officers In the army or other
persons not permanently located here; so that this
fact furnishes no more ground for recognising the
institution already in Kansas than does the Soourn
of Southerners with their slaves at Newport in sum-
mer months make Rhode Island a slave State
This is one side of the picture. Mr.. Dodson, oil
Georgia, brother Of the editor of the Georgia Exami-
rer who has settled in Kansas, gives his view OF the
other side. He says that slavery already exists in
Kansas, and needs ac OF the Legislature to permit
it that it is impossible to get white labor there, and
that they must have slaves that Missouri will SEND
half her population there to protect the Territory
from the control of the abolitonists. He adds, tina
slaves there hire readily at from $3.50 to 5000 per an
nun, and that Kansas was intended by Providence
