The Chances of slavery i'm Kansas.

The Herald of Freedom, Of the 9Th inst 4,
published at Lawrence, Kansas, speaks very
confidently with respect 10 the ultimate trl-
umph Of freedom in Kansas. The actual
residents are declared to have majority of
three to one against slavery, and though a
few weak-hearted persons may leave the
Territory, their places viii be supplied by
thousands "who have the ring of true steel

Clay County Outrages.

Our readers will find subjoined, the prOcla-
nation of the Governor in relation to the
outrages which have again been committed
upon the property belonging to the Wabash
and Erie Canal. 1t will be seen by the pro-
cianation. that the owrers Of this public work
are now suffering from the fifth act Of vio-
Ienee perpetrated against them by a gang of
out-i laws; and, by His Excellency's letter 10
the Sheriff of Clay County, a copy of which
IS also published below, that such a force is
anthorlzed to be called ont, as will most ef-
fectually result in the suppression of occur
renees, repetition Of which must result in
effects of most calamitouS character TO the
people along the line of the Canal.
General john W. Dom, of Marion county.
and Colonel j. B. NEEs, of Clay eonnty
Aids of Gov. WRIGHT, are ordered 10 the
scene of the disturbances, with inStruc-
tons to render the Sheriff of Clay county
thai assistance in carrying out the plans
for tle, restoration of law and order which
the ltxecntivc has concluded is necessary in
the presest emergency. In case of refusal
onthe part Of the authorities of Clay county
To execute the orders with which Gen.
eral Dom and Colonel NEES are COM
miSsioned, it is understood that the Comfy
in question will afterwards be declared in =
state of insunectiOn by the Governor and
that such military force will he put upon the
ground as must result in the execution of the
laws of the State Of Indiana
We regard the course pursued in this mat
ter as much a protection to the people of
Clay county as to the property Of the canal
Company. A few more outrages Of the kind
mentioned in the Governors proclamation,
will bring upon the heads Of the guilty and
innocent Of Clay county the vengeance of
those people along the canal who, in this
time of partial famine, depend upon the nav
igation, which is sought 10 be destroyed. al
most entirely for their s,lstenance.
Such force should be sent to the scene Of
action as would bring every scoundrel, en-
gagged in breaking the canal aqueduct, before
the courts where they would. doubtless, re-
ceive a sentence to convenient home in the
prison of our State.

IcTWhen We reflect on the victory in
Virginia We discover that it was a triumph Of
Democratic principles over selfish interests.
II was believed there that most foreigners
were sure TO he anti-slavery, and that their
labor would come in competition with slave
labor, rendering the Ia ter less valuable
There was considerable truth in Arguments of
this character, but they were rejected The
Democracy Of Virginia, true to the oonstitu-
ton and religious freedom, adhered 10 their
principles.
The Rev DIR. CLAPF, of New Orleans, pub
lished some time since the substance Of a
conversation he had with Mr.. CALHOUN in
which that sagaeious statesman declared that
IN hundred years or less. slavery, in eonse-
oacnss u ne externnl pressure ffoa irsc
labor would cease to exist. II this prediction
is TO be accomplished, it viii result from the
encouragement Of immigration. The South
as a matter Of interest would be opposed TO
this. There were sixty-four th0n and emf
grants that settled in the South in 1854, and
various circumstances cOnspire to increase
the European as we'll as Northern immigra-
ton to the Slave States. 1t is the opinion Of
some that if the strong stream of German
immigration into Texas had not been piema-
turely arrested, that great and fertile State
might have been free The railroads aud
canals and much Of the draining aud ditehing
in the South are due TO foreign labor I'm
migrants who settle there always find work;
although their presence may not he encour-
aged. The argument usei by the Know
Nothi1gs in Virginia was that foreign immi-
grafton would swamp the institution of
slavery by bringing free into competition
with slave labor Such a result would be
disastrous, in our opinion, to the immigrant,
the negro, and the planter. But the pros
pect of ultimate injury to themselves had no
effect ON the Democracy of Virginia.
The same argument which in the South is
used as terror to frighten the planter into
the arms of Know Nothingism, is employed
by the same party in the North as bait and
a lure to the Freesoil proelivities of the free
States.

VACANT SEATS IN THE U. s. SENATE.-We
are reminded by the New York Evening
Post that the Legislature of California have
adjourned, sine die after about fifty ballot
ings, without electing a successor to Senator
Gvin, that State IS to be added to the list Of
States that will go partially or entirely IN
represented in the Senate Of the United
States next winter The seats Of Petit, OF
Indiana, Dodge, of Iowa, Atchison, Of Mis-
souri,. and Norris and Williams, of New
Hampshire, remain vacant, like that of Dr
Gwin, their respective Legislatures being una
bic to effect q choice.
There's prospect of an election in New
Hampshire before that time, and the mmol
goes that Mr.. Gwin will present a claim IL
