The National Intelligencer. which OPP
posed the repeal of the Missouri Com
promise, takes decided grounds against
It's restoration. The same is true of ma
nv other papers and men. There is now
but little probability that q vote TO re-
store the Missouri Compromise can be
obtained. even in the House. Of the
New York delegation. only tirO me mbers
have been usually classed among the
friends Of the Nebraska law. But we un-
derstand that about Ii Of the delegation
will oppose the distur bnnce of it, now
that it has been adopted as the policy of
the country. The South viii. sustain il
en- masSe. The few southern members
who voted against it, and have been re-
elected, Will vote against repeal.
The conflict in Congress will not turn
braska law. or any part Of it, but of en-
forcing it according to lis true intent
and meaning, And it will be brought OH
by the presence OF Gen. Whitfield and
ex Governor Reeder, each claiming 10 be
Delegate elect from Kansas. The House
of Repre- sentatives will be compelled TO
decide which of the two is entitled 10
the seat; and, in SO doing, will decide
whether the body. lately claiming 20 be
the Legislature OF Kansas. were such in
fact. If they were, then their appoint
ment of day for the election Of a Del
egate to Congress was the day, and Whit
field is elected; no other candidate al the
time having received fifty votes for Del
egate, in the whole Territory. II, on the
other hand, they were a spurious body,
having no legal existence. then all their
acts are a nullily, and new legislature
will have TO be convened. The election
on the 9th inst. at the bidding Of vol
unteer convention, aud which resulted in
the choice of Governor Reeder, is only
valid on the supposilion that the Legis
lature had no legal existence. The con-
tested seat. therefore. will bring on a dis
cussioE of Kansas affairs in general, in
Guiding emigrant aid societies, Massa
chusetts invaders. &c. The result; is
doubtful. But, in either case, Kansas
will be free State. Why? Because q
large majority of her citizens are in favor
of it. And, although hitherto. for want
of due execution of the Kansas Nebras-
ka law, the will of the majority has been
thwarted. it will soon gain a true express
sion; and that expression will be in favor
Of freedom. There is no doubt of it.

Where Can Slavery be Extended.

II we accept as true the oft repeated
declaration OF republican leaders and
journals that the sole object of the forma-
tion of The republican party is TO prevent
the extension of slavery into territory
now free. it is natural TO inquire, as we
have before inquired, into what territory
now free is il likely or possible slavery
can be extended? If there is danger OF
extension, and if a political party in the
northern or southern States have any con
Germ one way or the other with the ques-
ton of extension. then there may be some
degree of sense in the formation Of the
republican party on the one idea OF in
tervention. But if there is no danger of
extension-ifthere is no territory belong
ing 10 the Union into which there is the
slightest likelihood slavery can be carried
then we submit whether there exists
any necessity whatever for the mainte-
nance of political party whose single
purpose is opposition to slavery extern
sion?
We believe il is conceded that neithe -
Oregon, Washington. Minnesota, Utah.
New Mexico or Nebraska stand in any
peril of becoming slave territory. Under
the operation Of the doctrine Of popular
sovereignty it is admitted that the people
of each will adopt constitutions prohi Bit
ing slavery, and knock for admission into
the Union. These are all the Territories
now organized. except Kansas. Will
slavery go to Kansas? From the outset
of the present agitation we have never foI
n moment apprehended that it would
We have no apprehension that it will.
No we'll informed person thinks that il
will. Recon. events in Kansas show thai
there is no possibility that it can. We
can produce free soil testimony that i,
cannot. Here il is, in the form of an
extract of letter written by free soilel
in Kansas to the Springfield (Mass.) Re
publican. dated 18th October:
"For the last twelve days we have done
little else than to speak and avow the
strongest antislavery sentiments you ever
heard uttered. We have passed through
two elections within a fortnight. Ons

OTwAY CURRY.-Otway Curry, who died
at his residence in Marysville, i'll this state,
on the 18th inst, was born on what is now
the site of Greenfield, Highland county, on
the 26th of March, 1904. His father Col
James Curry, served as an officer in the Vir-
ginia continental line during the revolution
ary war, and was taken prisoner when the
American army, under Gen. Lincoln, sur
rendered at Charleston.
O.way Curry was married on the l7th day
of Dec, 1928, TO Mary Nollmah, who sur
wives him. In 1867 he was o member OF
the state legislature in 1888 he, in connec-
tion with VIM. d. Gallagher, commenced
the publication of "The Hesperan," q
monthly literary journal, which continued
one year. In 1912 he was again in the legis-
lature, and the same year was admitted to
the bar In l8i3 he removed TO Xenia, and
purchased the Torch-Light newspaper, which
he conducted with ability for two years.
In 1850 Mr.. Curry was elected member
of the constitutional convention, and was
one of the small minority who unsuccess-
fully opposed the radicalisms of the majority
of that body. In 1852 Mr.. Curry purchased
the Scioto Gazette, and removed to Chilli
cothe, where he remained about year, when
he sold out and removed to Marysville.
Mr. Curry S literary and legal attainments
were good, and his performances as lawyer,
editor and legislator, respectable. AS poet
and writer of literature, however, he was
chiefly distinguished, and many elegant pro-
ductions have. at different periods, been the
offspring of his pen. He was of an amiable
character, retiring in manners and a sincere
and humble believer in the Gospel of Jesus
