Ca. stated.

Slavery rules the Republic. Everything
must berd 10 il. Like those clothed with
the ''6'vtne right" OF sovereignty, at can
do no wrong" The violence OF its ennis
sa1ies are winked at, while all who hold il in
abhorrence, are deemed prinsa tacie vaga-
bonds and traitors.
II the picture in Kansas were reversed,
who believes that the Adminis tration would,
for an hour, remain inactive II the Polls
had been invaded By "Abo!itionis,s' from
Iowa instead OF by Shareholders from Mis-
sour, is any one 20 silly as to believe that
no notice would have been taken oil the cut
ruge If Benton instead of Atchinson had
led on band OF rutfians to exclude Slavery
hstead Of Freedom from Kansas, does any
one doubt that the military arm OF the Gov
eminent would have been long since stretch
ed out to punish the invaders
But the Administration winks at ruffidn-
ism and lawless violence is called into ac-
ton to extend the bvTders Of Slavery! Free
men of Kansas have been driven from the
Polls by uon-residenis-the ba!lot-boxes
have been seized and desecrsted by hired
scoaudrels from Missouri the legal sen'i-
ment of the Territory has been trampled
upon-"p Popular Sovereignty" has been
violently ignored ia Free Press has been
destroyed, and its conductors shametuliy
driven from their homes-peacelul citizens
have been torn from their dwellings, tarred
and ieathertd, and sold by negro at auc-
ton ministers OF the Gospel have been
driven from their fields OF l.bjI--American
citizens have been, al the point the bowie
knife, dcspoiled OF their proper y-and the
Executive o. the Territory has been brow
beaten, buliied and stricken down by the
chief ruffian OF the Slave Power-and yet
the Administration remains as passive and
indifferent as il these uutrages did not in
vclve the rights OF the citizen aud the honor
of the Government.
When, in Boston, il appeared probable
that concerted movement would be made
to rescue poor creature claimed as Flu
gitiVe from Slavery, the Army and Navy
were both called into requsition! But here,
the rights, liberties and lives OF whole
People-the principle OF Popular Soyer-
eignity," claimed 10 rest at the basis ot all
true Democracy Freedom Of Speech
and of the Ballot Law and Justice and the
authority OF the Government Itself, is set at
defiance, and no single step is tai en either
To- protect the outraged or punish the guilty.
And all this because Slavery demands that
