From the Georgia Examiner:
Kansas-Its Adaptation to Slavery.

LETTER FROM A GEORGIA MAN TO HIS BROTHER.
PLATT Co., Mo-, Sept. 9, 1854.
DEAR BROTHER In answer to your inquiries rel
ative to Kansas Nebraska and this country for the
sake of convenience, | will somewhat transpose
your questions, and thus be able to reply more in
telligibly.
You are doubtless advised of the efforts of the
aboltionists to induce such emigration of those
opposed to slavery as shall exclude it from the ter
ritory These efforts, with the usual emigration
from the non-slaveholding States, will necessarily
throw into the territory large population opposed
to slavery. Should they even succeed in becoming
the majority, am yet fully convinced that Kansas
will be slave State-Sduery does erist there an fact
The number of slaves is daily increasing Of those
who 90 from this State, a large number will be
either shareholders, or their children and though
they may for time leave their slaves in Missouri
they will not the less influence their friends and
neighbors, who may even in their feelings be in
clned against slavery to oppose exclusion for their
sake.
At present the portion of the territory open for
settlement is mainly in the possession of those fa-
vorable to slayerythey the larger portion of
the territory suitable for small farms and men of
limited means The parts unoccuped are prairies
remote from timber, and unfit for settlement by poor
men. Could the question be determined at an early
period the character of the population, their supo-
rior intelligence their familiarity with political
canvasses their position in the territory would give
those favorable to slavery a decided advantage In
addition to all of which, there two causes which
will unless those favorable to slavery should fool
ishly fear to settle in Kansas and thus voluntarily
give up the territory, finally certainly determine
the condition of the territory as a slaveholding
State.
