enty.two 10 ffty.sevea. The debate On tho subject
was quite short, especially bctweon Mr.. Sacrmss,
one Of the Kansas Commissioners and WhiAeld,
the sitting Delegate from that Territory, tho latter
getting very badly worsted in attempting to sstiAy
the HOuie that be mover crossed the territorial nns
