Editors i'm Parliament.

The press in England certainly cannot com
plain that it is not fairly represented in high
places. The London AMea9um says:
"There are more proprie,ors, editors. and
correspondents of public journals in the present
House of Commons than at any previous
period. Among leading debaters in that
House are to be found some Of the most bower.
full writer's Of the day, The Chancellors of the
Exchequer are men who have occupied equally
distinguished positions in literature, and the
Lords Lieutenant Of Ireland are elegant ESSAY
lists, pleasant versifiers, and accomplished
authors of diaries. In fact, the distinction and
~antagonism between the worlds of politics and
literature seem fast dying out to the advantage
Of both, we would fain believe. While the one
becomes more enlightened, it is to be hoped
the other will gain in robustness and health
ness of tone"
The ten daily political journals Of Paris have
a total circulation of l6l, 900, villa Press

BINGHAMpToS, Oct. l6, 1855.
GESTLEMEN-Your favor Of the 9th ult.,
inviting me to deliver one OF a contemplated
course OF lectures on the subject Of slavery. at
the fremont Temple, in Boston, the ensuing
season, reached here during my attendance
upon a neighboring circuit, and | avail myself
Of the earliest moment, consistent with pres.
sing engagements since my return, to acknow.
ledge the honor extended me, and to explain
the cause Of delay in ansN ering.
] have considered the subject Of your inyi-
tation with much anxiety, and, upon the whole.
am constrained by convictions Of duty to de.
cline it. To lecture upon this disturbing sub
ject, unless it is proposed to act upon it, would
seem to be n barren and proftless %gratuity /;
and If action is proposed, il must have relation
to the domestic concerns Of our sovereign
equals, with which we Rave no right to inter.
fere. They left this question in other times,
according 10 the true sense Of the Constitution,
to the people Of New York and Massachusetts,,
with all lis responsibilities and irritations, to
dispose of in their own good time and manner ;
and may we not, in the same coniidinq spirit,
leave IL TO those upon whom IL rests2 Deter.
mined long since to leave this question where
the Constitution left it, were | to accept your
invitation, ] would choose for my theme The
Duty Of the People Of these Free States and
would endeavor 10 inculcate The valued admo.
nitions Of the Father of our Country upon sec.
tional disturbances. Lest, however, a formal
lecture, as proposed by your course, even in
yoking non. Intervention in the affairs Of sover-
eign States, might be construed into an admis.
sion that it was an open question, aud that by
the same rule others might arraign and a~ssail,
/ have determined that ! shall best contribute
to preserve the public peace by declining to
take part in the proposed discussion. have
the honor to be, your obedient servant,

tory by certain persons protesting to be the
peculiar friends of freedom, is at a variance
with all law, and entirely subyersiye OF good
order, is practical notification, rebellious and
treasonous, and should be frowned upon and
denounced by every lover of civil liberty and
the prosperity of the Union.
N.sThat the admission Of Andrew III. Reeder
to a seat in the next Congress of the United
States, would, in our opinion, be a violation Of
all law aud precedent, and would have a ten
dency 10 encourage the violation of the law aud
order of good government, aud would be an
outrage upon the citizens of Kansas.
vi. That the convention lately assembled at
Topeka to form a Constitution for the State
government, called and elected by, and com
posed OF, members Of a political party-the
so-called State party-and neither called. nor
elected by the people Of Kansas, would have
been a farce If It's purposes had not been trea-
sonable and a constitution presented by such
a convention is unworthy the serious conside.
ration OF f%reemen, and if presented to Con-
gress as the Constitution Of Kansas, should
be secuted from its walls as an insult to its in
teiigehce, and an outrage upon our sovereign
rights.
VII. That we cordially endorse the Kansas.
Nebraska act, and more especially that part OF
~ IN i'ptHio tuI nliSoOtllS OUlpEOIuiSt anu
enunciates the principle that The people Of
every Territory, in framing their organic laws,
have a right to decide for themselves what do
nestle institutions they will or will not have.
VIII. That the Kansas Nebraska bill recog.
nizes the true principles of Republican govern
ment that we feel that we are as iii for and
capable of self government as we were when
citizens of the States, and as the citizens OF
other States are and we denounce any at
tempt on the part of Congress, or the citizens
OF other States to control our domestic affairs.
IL. That although, as citizens of a Terrific
ny, we can take no part in national politics,
yet we feel ourselves impelled to express our
gratitude to the Democrats Of the Northern
States for their undertaking support Of the
great principles of government under all the
abuse which has been heaped upon them.
y. That we deplore the course which has
been pursued by some of the newspapers
abroad, in the Misrepresentation which have
been published by them in reference to the DO
litical excitement which, it has been alleged,
existed here, charging anarchy and confusion
as presiding in this Territory to an alarming
extent, aud making other gross misstatements
III regard to the actual state of affairs here ex.
lstlng-all OF which are calculated to mislead
the public abroad, and thereby retard the
growth and settlement of the Territory.
Al. That we, the Law and Order party.
Union-loving party, and State Rights party Of
Kansas Territory, are fully able, and we pledge
ourselves to support and sustain Gov. Shannon
in the execution Of the laws, and that we feel
the utmost confidence in his firmness and IN
tegrity.
