q sale Of lots on tie Goth ult. at Atchson Cify'
on the Kansas side of the Missouri River, fe~
mile. above Weston. Finding a large crowd OF
Missouriaus in attendance, Gen. A. improved the
occasion by making them speech WHEREOF
The PG'kriHe LHminary of the 26th reports the
substance Is follows:
Gen Atchison m ,un,sd an old wagon and msde
speech. He commenced by abiding TO the besqhfal
country which was now beginning ~ be seited-'O
some Of the circumstances under which ierritprIM
Government was organzed-and in the course Oh MS
remarks men'iored how Douglas came 20 introduce
the Nebraska bill with the repeal clause in L. Sena
tor A. .ad that for himself be is entirely devoted 10
the interests OF the South and that be would sacrnce
everything but his hope Of heaven TO ADVANCE her
welfare He thought the Missouri Compromise ought
10 be repealed-he had pledged himself in his public
addresses 10 vote for 10 Territorial organization toa
woule not annu -snd with this feeling in his heart
be desired 20 be Chairman of the Senate Committee
on Territories when bill WAS TO be introduced With
this ohec, in view be had private interview WITH
Mr.. Douglss ana informed him of what he desired
the introduction Of bill for Nebraska Ike what ne
had promised vote for and that he would like to be
Chairman Of the Committee on Territories IN order 10
Introduce such measure. and if he could get that
position be would Immediately resign a. speaker OF
the Senate. Judge Douglas requested tcenty.foar
hours 10 consider tie matter and ssIe-if az tue ekp
ration of that time he could not introduce such bill as
be Mr.. Aichsonl proposed, which would at the same
time accord with his sense Of night and justice
to the South he would resign as Chairman OF the Ter
ritorial Committee in Democratic caucus, and exert
bis influence 10 get him Atchson appointed. Al the
expiration Of the given time Senator Douglas signi
fed his intention TO report such bill a. had been
spoken a.
Gen Atchison next spoke ofthose who hal sup
ported and those who haG opposed the bill IN the Sem
ate and remarked that northern Democrats came up
nobly 10 the work bu, that northern Wings had
proved recreant 20 the cause of justice and right.
Southern men he said. acted as they should have
done with, be was sorry 10 say, two exceptions "A
voice in the crowd here called out " Bell and Hous-
ton Yes he said these were the men, one W hg
and one Democrat-botn asprants for the Presidency
but, poor missrGJk derIs, they had made false
s'ep-snd he might say now he lAtchson) had falrer
chance for that high honor than either OF them The
American people loved honesty, and could appreciate
the acts Of who openly and above board voted
according the will Of his constituents without re-
gard &C political favor.
Senator Atchison next alluded to the Slavery ques
ton AZ il is now being agitated in our community,
enc closed by expressing his profound contempt for
AbotOnists and their Vaccinations, and said that II
he had his way he would hang every one that dared
show his face here. In reference, however to NORTH
men settling in Kansas Territory, he said he knew
there sensible, honest, right-feeling men among
them, who would be a. far from stealing negro a.
southern man would, and his remarks applied only TO
avow I'd Aboltionists.
Such is glance at some of the points in Senator
Aichson's speech
We ask all who are inclined to believe that
Douglass Nebraska bill was not an extraor-
binary measure but is a legitimate consequence
of the Compromise of $780, to ponder these reve-
lations Did Douglas beIiere The Missouri Restrie-
tion superseded ty the later Compounded His
speeches say he did; what say his acts Hear
Gen. Atchson and Judge.
