The Boston Chamber of Commerce, as was
stated in our Money article on Saturday, have re-
solved to petition Congress for General Bankrupt
Law The movement is wise and timely, but we
apprchend doomed to failure. 1t is-What is not !!
"A sectional movement, or what comes 10 the
same thing, will be so regarded. The movement is
timely, because such law, to subserve the purpose
for which the exclusive power to enact it was
given TO Congress, to find any support in the
popular sense of justice, should be propeetire in its
operation. The trainers of the Constitution used
TIE words laws on the subject of bankruptcy
in the sense which the practice of England had a.
tached to them. They meant system of cOmpul-
sorry measures by which the creditors of an insOl
vent could compel the application of all his property
to the payment pro rata of his debts and an incl
dent to which the honest debtor upon full sur
render of his effects could obtain discharge from
future liability. The object was to prevent the
voluntary deN oion of the assets of the debtor in
failing circumstances to the payment of preferred
creditors in exclusion of others; or the wasting Of
assets, already insufficient, i'll the costs of making
and resisting the struggles of the more suspicious
ana NlNild NltultoiH W u"tdiH piioIltl vi pay
mcnt by adverse legal proceedings. Twice in our
history we have had General Bankrupt Law in
operation for few months. In both instances the
incident, the release of the debtor was the lead
inc motive. In both instances it served practically
as a mere sponge 10 wipe out existing debts con-
tracted without reference 10 such measure. In
both instances ii Was repealed the moment it began
10 act prospccively as check upon baseless
credits and q remedy for deluded creditors. In
both instances the repeal was hurried and facili-
tatcd by the odium which attached TO the laws as
impsirng the validity Of contracts; so it will be
again, if the enactment is postponed until after a
period Of ruinOus speculation, commercial disaster
End magnificent insolvency. The season of pros
peIity is the time 10 ask il as measure of re-
preston and safety, not one merely of question
able relief.
We deem the movement wise, because. il is the
only means by which the system of voluntary as
signments and the fictitious credit which they en-
courage cen be efectually suppressed The courts
have warrcd With il in ain. The practical opera
tion is this; AnyEman without means who can pro
cure responsible FREUD to indorse for him, is

enabled to borrow money and to buy goods with
which be can traffic. He is enabled to secure such
friend, because, if unsuccessful, whether by mis-
fortune or BY crime he is tolerated in appropriat-
ing the whole Of the property, which be holds in
trust for these who furnished it, to the exclusive
benefit Of the favored friend. The latter is there
fore able to aid the experiment. not at his own
risk. but at the risk Of third persons, who had no
part in negotiating the arrangement. No words
are necessary to show what powerful stimulus TO
mere trading is this facility of delusve credit If
the consequences were confined to the traders, we
might not concern ourselves greatly. But the diff
fculty is that the real producers must necessarily
paw profits enhanced to a sufficient degree to sup
port all the unsuccessful traders, and 10 remunerlte
the other traders for their losses under the opera
ton of the 81 stem and oil the lawyers and shers
whose services are necessary in the litigation il
promotes. Ii is very creditabe TO the merchants
Of Boston to discern that il enures to the benefit of
the reckless and improyident in their own class,
end that the permanent interest OF the commercial
class is one with that of the producers. 1t is a.
novel as il is credable for this vicious stem has
been maintained by merchants and bankers against
the hostility of those who ultimately suffer by it,
Nevertheless the movement will fail until we
have conquered peace on the Slavery ques'
tion and acquired the power of selfgOyernment
in the pli ce of subsection to the interests and will
of the Slayeocracy. The Slave States have their
own way of providing, or rather OF failing to pro-
vide. for the payment of debts. 1t is not without
strenuous resistance that they will submit TO have
an eiectua process supplied by Federal legislation.
An aristocracy based upon the possession of lands
and negroes cannot be- maintained without guarding
the lard from summary sale on execution, or by in
assignee in bankruptcy. They have quirk, too,
which forbids corporations created by State au-
tholity from practical destructicn-by being forced
into liquidation under Federal law. Hence this
movement in favor OF General Bankrupt Law Is
sectional, an assault upon the security of Southern
institutions, and fraught with sad aud awful dan
ger 70 the perpetuity of this glorious Union
Let the Boston merchants overhaul the Congress
sonal debates for the arguments OF Southern states
men against the Bankrupt Law of lSll, and con-
quer their prejudces. While in Alabama and
Georgia they are discussing the most stringent
safeguards against the collection OF debts due TO
men of Massachusetts,, is it t. be imagined
that Yankee subtlety is to be permitted 10 evade
them by the device of Bankrupt law? We hope
however, that the Sostonians may persevcrc in
their effort 20 that those who imagine there is any
useful measure depending upon Federal action in
the way of which Slavery does not stand, may
have one more proof of the truth.

THE PRESIDENTS KANSAS MESSAGE

1t is impossible to judge from the mere words of
q statement or declaration what the intention Of
the party who makes it really is. No matter how
plain and clear the words may seem to be, to judge
correctly what is meant, the speaker or writer
must be known.
Knowing very well Mr.. Pierce and Mr. Cushing,
the reputed authors of the Presidents Annual
Message, we haxarded on Monday last conjecture
that the paragraph in that Message referring to the
people OF Kansas possessing " the right to deter
''mne their own domestic institutions" and to be
protected in the enjoyment of that right "with-
"Out interference on the part of the citizens
"Of any OF the States" meant not what i
seems to mean, and what many simple.souled per.
sons have supposed that it did mean, but simply
that the President intended to aid and back the
Border Ruffans in stopping immigration from the
East, and putting down the new State Constit,l-
ton. And now comes the Presidents Message
(Which We print in full in another column), cou.
New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1856-01-26

letter from Kansas lately published in The y.
L. Times gives currency to certain false state
ments, which, az they appear TO be copied and be-
lieved elsewhere. we deem it proper to contradict
The letter in question alleged that the Special
Correspondent OF THE TRIBUNE in Kansas had not
only interlercd in the local affairs of the Terri
tory. and procured himself to be elected Delegate
10 the recent FreeState Convention, but after TAX
ing his seat az such left Topeka, the place where
the Convention was held, the next day, thus a0an-
donng duty he had undertaken. What motive
could prompt these falsehOods We do not know; for
falsehOods they are as our Special Correspondent is
well known in Kansas, and everybody at the Conyen-
ton is aware not only that he was present during
all its sittings but that he occupied seat as re-
porter which he was invited to take by public
resolution of that body. As for interfering in the
affairs of the Territory the only fact we are aware
of under that head is that he participated In the
defense of Lawrence, where he acted as one OF the
aids of Gen. Robinson, and we doubt not rendered
as valuable services in that capacity as he did with
his graphic and indefatigable pen in our columns.
We are confident also that if the Border Ruihans
he'd dared TO attack the place, he would have given
a coed account of himself with his Sharp's rifle or
howie-knife and revOlver-and if such were not our
opinion of him, be certainly would never have been
in the service of The TRIBUNE in that region.
His duty there was not only to write well, but
also on any such occasion as that TO fight well; and
We are sure he is not the man to shrink from either
branch of it,
