a Waif from Northern National Paper.

od hbituns by the Southern papers in the
interest Of BUCHANAN. These same
Southern papers are clamorous concerning
the necessity of making Kansas Slave
State. They contend that the Cincinnati
Convention Democracy form unit in
opinion as to the necessity of this matter
that the Kansas Nebraska bill was franz
ed and adopted with the view of securing
the incorporation of the peculiar institu-
tion" into the Constitution, under which,
Kansas should come into the Union as
sovereign State. This, they contend, is
the point upon which the orthodoxy of
the Democratic faith hinges. Of all abb
surdities it is the greatest; Of all hum
bugs the most palpable; of all receptions
the most INSCRIPTIONS; of all pretensions
the most unfounded. Mr. DOUGLAS, of
Illinois, the author of the bill, urged its
passage upon grounds which seemed plau-
sible enough, while he contended for his
"pet measure" upon the floor of Con-
grcss, but in reality because, as another
distinguished Northern Senator afterwards
remarked, in the presence of his Freesoil
constituency, ''it would work with such
powerful effect as to keep all the territory
which might afterwards be acquired by
the United States, free even to the 18th
mus of Darien''-and upon no other
ground. This is the fact, and We chal-
lenge the denial of it BACKED BY PROOF
At the same time, In general but inefiect-
i've terms, it (the Kansas biiD asserted
the rights of the South, and Southern
men were led into its support and lulled
into temporary trust and an unfounded
confidence in the securities which it guar
anteed to them, and while they folded
their hands and cried ''peace," the North
ern hordes whose eyes were opened to the
true state of the case, sent their myrmi-
dons, and are daily sending them even
now, to prevent the exercise of the rights
of the Southern people in that Territory
This is the truth. But to its application.
There are .lways, inevery land, atall times,
to be found extremists, who wish to, and

he Sonth went to work to counteract
their plans. And what follows? The
Northern journals, which have been held
lup as the friends par e:ccellence of the
South. rebahs these Aot-Aeaded fsce-soiyers
and tell them they have spoiled all by
their precipitancy; that Kansas would have
been free State if the olarmists, altra-
ists and ecciters had not commenced thcig
foolish works-thus betraying the real ma
ture of the intentions of the Northern
supporters of the Kansas bill-thus Civ
ing incontrorertible evidence that the
North meant by the passage of that mea-
sure to deceive the South; and that so far
from those Northern Journals now support
ing BUCHANAN, being real friends of the
South, they are in reality its deadliest
foes, and find their most congenial en-
Iployment in the rebukc of those trench
ant men of the North who figure in church
with SHARPE's rifles, for spelling as pret-
ty a plan to gull the population of fifteen
sovereign States as human ingenuity ever
devised

THE RIGHT SORT OF TALK.-We find
the followingin the n. Y. Journal of Com

''Too much Swaggering.-A letter to
one of the editors of the Journal of Com
merce frou northern clergyman travelling
in Missouri, says: 81 saw the Chicago
boys soon after their relief from their ar
NOR at Lexington. If they had boosted
less, the Lexington people would have let
them alone. Indeed, if Kansas fails to
come in as free State, the Abolitionists
have to thank their own bad spirit and
misguided measures for the result. This
is the opinion of the numerous free State
men now in Missouri, who had decided
preferences to freedom
''There is no doubt whatever of the
truth of the above. Had it not been for
the red hot Abolitonists and land specu-
lating emf grant aid society of New Eng
land, we never should have heard of troub-

been a free State This will, as soon as
the fever of the Presidency subsidies, be
the opinion of all disinterested people.
