"We earnestly entEeat our Government to

them reverse the question, and ask themselves
whether, If the United States sent their re-

We are sure that they would not, and that In
so doing they would be backed by the voice Of

FRox KArsAs.-In q letter received By the

10, the following ID reported - . portion Of the
late proceedings Of the Kansas Legislature:
"Day before yesterday the bill to regulate
elections passed. IL provides that any free
white male citizens Of the United States, and
any free male Indian who is made acitilen BY
treaty or otherwise, over the age of twenty
one years, who shall be an inhabitant of this
Territory, and who shall have paid terrific
vial tax, shall be q qualified elector for all
elective Offices When any vote is challenged,
and he may be challenged by any other voter,
he shall be required to take an oath 10 support
the Constitution Of the United States, the
Kansas-Nebraska act and the fugitive slave
law.
Also, an act to punish offences against
slave property passed the House. By this
act, raising rebellion or instruction among
slaves is made a crime punishable with death !;
if any free person shall by speaking, writing,
or publishing, incite rebellion or instruction
among the slaves in Kansas Territory, or in
fame them against their masters, they shall
suffer death. Death or imprisonment for life
is the penalty for decoying slaves from their
masters; and for assisting to decoy of slaves
death or Imprisonment at hard labor for ten
years is the penalty. This bill passed without
q dissenting vote"
