The principal features in the news
of the week are variety of rumors
stating that there were prospects of
peace.
One rumor says, Russia directly
requires Prussia to make conciliatory
offers to the Western Powers. Prus-
STA, it is said, acce pted-Austria as
senting-also said propositions were
submitted to Napoleon by Russia,
which can honorably be accepted,
namely, Russia will conclude peace
with the Western Powers without the
Intervention of Prussia and Austria.
The terms are said to be, Russia ac-
ceding toguarantee the independence
of the Danubian Principalities and
the freedom of the Black Sea.
Both parties continue preparations
for hostilities, but no active operations
will be entered upon until the date
agreed.
The excitement respecting the
American affairs, has passed away.
The King of Prussia, in speech in
the Chambers, announced that he
would continue a decided neutrality.
Nothing important from Asia or
the Black Sea.
Operations at Sebastopol, prepar-
atory to attacking the Northern forts,
progressing rap dly.

French troops in the Black Sea, died

OUR LEGISLATURE.

We are not unfrequently asked
"what is the Legislature doing and
when will they break up?" Well, we
suppose they are doing pretty much
after the same old sort-not much of
anything in particular and nothing in
general, and will break up when to
continue the session their constituents
might scold wee bit. But in fact,
there is no telling what they really
have done. Resolutions and Gan act
to amend an act, to supersede an act,
and all such rigmarole of folderol ma
neuvres, unintelligible to US common
people, are introduced, read first and
second times, laid on the table, after
calling the ayes and noes, and for what
purpose not half a dozen can tell, and
by stereotyped custom well pleasing
to the Hon. distinguished members,
the whole turns up ga flash in the
pan," much for the good of the coun-
try and honor to the venerable body
In house assembled. So rolls the ball,

THE KANSAS QUESTION

Looms up prominently and menacpg-
| ly before the nation. Civil war ra-
ges in the territory-war set on foot
by the schemes of the Emigrant Aid
Society of New England, headed by
Clergymen and Abolitionists. To set
tie Kansas, this society has sent
troops of mad fanatics there. and re-
Gently large quantities of Sharpe's
rifles, revolvers, six cannon, and 9TH
er novel instruments for settling a new
country. The result is seen in the
telegraphic accounts. Men murdered,
laws set at defiance, and the standard
of rebellion openly raised against the
legal authorities.
In every respect in which the ques-
ton is now presented, it is favorable
to the South. The abolitionists are
in arms against the laws of Congress,
the territorial laws, and the authori-
ties acting under both. The Kansas
act originated the territory, its officers
appointed by the President are in au-
thority, its Legislature was a legal
body and passed laws regulating the
territory. A legal election was held
for a delegate to Congress and Whit
field was elected; the abolitionists held
an election on another day without
any authority of law and claim Reed
er as the delegate. Again, the Leg
stature refused to call a Convention;
The abolitionists called one, held an
election without law, had conven-
ion, and nov disregard all in authori-
y but their own self-created officers.
The South is thus as usual ON the
ide of Law, Order and Right. All II
Who are acting with the abolitionists
re guilty of freasoa-they are in re-
ellion. Gov. Shannon is doing his
uty-he is using all his power to en-
orce the laws, and the President has
rdered the troops to aid him. '
