bors on the colonial coasts, it is probable they
will proceed to fulfil like duties on the coasts OF
the United States, for it will be seen that the
treaty so stpulates. The British have an equal
right with our own citizens to fish 9" in all the
bays harbors and creeks, and on the seac oasis, y
and are permitted to land ON the coasts and
islands for the purpose Of drying their nets
and curing their fish down to the thirty sixth
parallel Of north latitude, which includes the
coast of North Carolina. We presume, there.
fore, that the citizens Of Ocrscoke, Currituck
and Pamleo Sounds, Long leland Sound, Chesa-
peake and Delaware bays, and the creeks there
of, will be favored with the official visit Of the
Commissioners next winter, when the weather
will obige them to suspend operations in the
northeast.
BY the fifth and sixth articles Of the treaty,
the consent Of the Colonial Legislatures was
stipulated to sanction the concession In relation
to the fisheries on their coasts, they contending
that the Imperial Parliament of Great Britain
had no power to ALLEVIATE their rights therein. No
provision is in the treaty requiring the consent
of the Legislatures of the States having Allan.

Gates Of estate rights in the Senate, concede
that the federal government of the United

Congress to make such cession not extending

Ar ,i,s in Kansas.

The mock election Of Gov. Reeder to Congress
has taken place, and from the imperfect returns
reported 1t seems not improbable that tho vote
cast for him exceeds that Pollel for Gen. Whit
field, n few days previous. Whether the votes
are all legal or not, we, of course, do not know
nor do we consider it of the slightest Importance
whether they are not The whole question
turns on the Legitimacy and authority of the Kan
aas Legislature. If it was II legal and constitu-
tiona assembly, the day Of its appointment was
the only one on which an election could be held.
That the Legislature was legal body, and acted
within the scope of its powers in this particular,
does not admit of "a reasonable question Its au-
tlority is recognized by the federal government
by the present Governor Of the Territory and
was by Coy. Reeder himself, up to tho time that
it chose to change its place Of meeting. The
members held commits sions bearing his official
signature, and the session wa regularly opened
BY message from him. With these facts be
fore the country il would be idle to permit con
test for Whtleds scat on the part of Congress.
Eeoder poll is meaningless register and he is the
representative of revolution and lawlessness.-
The only proper question for inquiry in his case
is whether his movement against the government
of Kansas and its laws amounts to treason.
The friends cf law and order in the Territory
propose a Convention in the early par. of Novem-
Der, to define their position, and to let the people
understand what course they intend to pursue
hereafter. This call is made, and the address,
setting forth the reasons which make it impera-
tive, is published by leading citizens of the Ter
ritory. The Committee profess to be the friends
of Law and Order-they propose to uphold the
law as they find it, and to aid the author ties IN
administering it and. so long as they do this,
they deserve to be sustained. This Convention
ought to be productive of good, and it viii be.
if the counsels of wise men control it. Let them
perform the part of conservative, discreet, pat
riotic men: let them announce their deter
mination to sustain Law and Order in clear,
but not insulting tones, and good may be expect
| ed to result from the Convention.

PRINCE JOHN VAN buren,, in his late Oswego
speech, said
1.-THE Democratic Party now, as ever, puts
forth liberal creed--a creed rhich is ad-
perse to starery ccferery kindbecause we believe
something in the slavery of white people as well
black ones"
In another portion of his speech he laid down
the following doctrine in regard TO Kansas:
1.-The settlers themselves may prohibit slavery
but if Ahey should not.then.when the Territory is
formed into State and applies for admission,
you have again the right to raise the question
whether it is fairly formed into slave State and
If it is not you have the right to prevent it from
coming into the Union until it presents itself
with free constitution, if you choose"

same political "trucke- bed' with those nice
young men of the N. Y. Democratic club whom
