ELECTION OF PRINTER.

The House, last week, after a somewhat pro-
tracted struggle elected Mr.. Wendell, Demo
crat,) Printer. The Know Nothings were
determined that Mr.. Follett should not be cho-
sen, and the Republicans then concluded that
the struggle might as well be closed, and so
they suffered Mr. Wendell, who has been
Pablo Printer to be elected.
We hope hereafter that this matter may be
better disposed Of The profits of this printing
business, which are very large, will, we suppose,
90 in part to fatten the Union, whose editor is
also Printer to the Senate. The printing of both
Houses, as we have often insisted, ought to be
separated from the newspapers. Let Gov
eminent printing Office be established, which
shall do the legitimate printing of the Govern
ment, and nothing else. 1t will cost no more
than the present system-probably not so
mnch-and the corrupt relation between Gov
ernment and the newspaper press will be bro
ken up. We shall not then see partisan jour
nails growing insolent on the spoils, and used
by the majority in Congress to calumniate and
browbeat the minority.

HOW SLAVERY EXISTS IN THE DISTRICT

SiR. wish you would tell US some of the
laws regulating Slavery in the District Some
say that Slavery in the District IS not national,
but local some, that Congress cannot abolish
1t there; and some, that Congress ought not,
without the consent of the owners. For nv
part, think that it is national in the District,
made so by act Congress, and that Congress
ought to abolish it anyhow. J. HorLIYG.
Slavery existed in the District of Columbia.
before he cession by Virginia and Maryland of
the ten miles squire constituting said District.
The cods recognising and regulating it was en-
acted by those States. It the time of the ces-
sion, Congress passed an act, re-enacting that
slave code, so that the Slavery that now exists
here, being recognised and regulated by the
Federal Legislature, is national, and the People
of the United States are responsible for it
Some years ago, tbs part of the District ceded
by Virginia, was retro-ceded, ali that remains
is the part that was coded by Maryland, so that
the slave code in operation here, is the old
slave code Of Maryland, without amendment
just as it was adopted by Congress in 1902.

THE UNION AND Mr.. BANKS.

The Washington Union is foolish enough to
berate Mr.. Banks, because he has seen fit to
organize the Committees 80 as to place them
under the control of the Republicans. Did it
expect him to betray those who elected him,
and put the sceptre in the hands of those who
for nine weeks had labored to defeat him, and
humiliate the Republican Party? A sensible,
shrewd paper is the Union.
Not Southern man, except General Quit
man, is at the mead of an important Committee,
cries the Union. Well, that is all owing to the
bigoted Sectionalism of the Shareholders. Not
Southern vote was given for Mr.. Banks-not
a Southern man gave any support to the Re-
publican Party every Southern man made
open war upon it. Look at the Senate Com
mittees. An Administration caucus, controlled
by Shareholders, dictated all the Committees;
and can you find at the head of any one OF
them, important or unimportant, an Anti
ministration man? Not one; and yet the
Union is full of bitterness, because Mr.. Banks,
Republican Speaker, has not placed import
ant Committees under the leadership of Anti.
Republicans Mr.. Banks has shown mag
nanimity, which the Oligarchy never has shown,
and cannot appreciate. He has appointed two
members of the tyrantclass, Southern men, as
Chairmen of two important Committees-on
Military Affairs, and on the Library-and he
has assigned other prominent members of that
same class conspicuous places on the highest
Committees AS we have fully shown in an
other column, this is what the Oligarchy in the
Senate, whose organ the Union is, has not done.
On the contrary, it has meanly sought to de-
grade the Senators, distinctively opposed to it.
We confess we did not suppose the Union
would be indecent and reckless enough to utter
word of complaint against Mr.. Banks; but it
is vain to look for anything like good sense or
fair dealing from the organs of the OEgarchy.

THE COST OF IT.

1t is said that the majority of the PeoLle OF
Missouri condemn the outrages on Kansas,
committed by Atchison and his followers TT his
may be true, but where is the evidence = it ?
What expression of public opinion havs we
against them? Their Representatives and Sen
ators in Congress excuse or defend all tht1 has
been done to force Slavery into Kansas and
what paper, except the Missouri Democrds has
uttered bold remonstance against theS out
laws? Until some evidence be Furnished that
the citizens of Missouri, generally, cop.emn
Mr.. Atchison, they will be held guilty of siding
and abetting him. \.
st. Louis, a city of commerce, whose bust
ness relations connect it specially with thu; free
States, and which has been the point of arrival
and departure for the emigration to Krnsas
will be the loser. Free State emigrans will
not subject themselves to insult and ind -gnity
by passing through Missouri they will avoid il
as Sodom or Gomorrah, and find theio way
through Iowa, by the way of Burlington, tc
Kansas.
Another curious phenomenon is noticed by
the New York Erening Post. Before thu raid
into Kansas, it says the six per cert. Missouri
State stock was sold at the New York Board o.
Brokers at 97-very near par. The Stat, was
regarded as growing one-Slavery was not
considered the dominant interest-the iripres
sion was that many of the elements 'ha> have
ministered to the prosperity of the Fl .e States
were fast concentrating there, and would grad
ually subvert the mischievous inhpences o.
slave labor. But, the organization Of the Sla
Propaganda within her borders, ard the
liberation of their base conspiracy, by the PEG
pie generally, have, evidently, impaired the cred
it of the State. Immediately after the invasion
of Kansas, the Post says, Missouri stools be
gan to experience decline, and continued tc

they now stand only at sc, showing l,ss o.

Kansas outrages.
off we compare" says the Post, "the condition
of these stocks in the market with that of stocks
issued by other States, the discredit into which
Missouri has fallen will be still more evident
Yesterday the six per cent. stocks stoot thus
in the market: Ohio, ITO Massachusetts,. los
New York, los; Virginia, 954; Kentucky, 1Ol
Between Missouri and Virginia, one might
suppose that the credit of Missouri should stand
highest. Missouri is the most thriving State
her people are the most enterprising of thu two
she is growing rich much faster than her elder
sister; her public debt is smaller-it amounts to
nineteen millions of dollars, while Virgins. owes
twenty-six millions. Besides, there is soma dan
ger that Virginia may seriously impair her
prosperity by foolish laws in restraint of her
commerce with the other States of the Union
In spite of all these circumstances, the Xxx per
cent. stocks of Missouri bring, at this m .ment,
nearly ten per cent. less in the markes than
those of Virginia"
Let the People of Missouri look to it. ;" The
end is not yet"

KANSAS AFFAIRS IN THE SENATE.

Last Monday, copies of letters and documents
relating TO the recent disturbances in Kansas,
transmitted by the President, were laid before
the Senate, and gave rise to an animated debate.
Mr.. Toucey, of Connecticut, with selfsuiiicient
AR, spoke Of the conduct of the Executive as if
it would commend itself to the judgment of ev
cry sensible person, and admonished his oppo-
nepts hereafter TO inform themselves concern
ing subject, before they attempted to discuss
st.
he was answered by General Wilson, with
great spirit and severity, in a speech on Kansas
affairs, which was nos concluded at the hour of
adjournment. The subject was resumed the
following day, when General Wilson proceeded
70 deliver one Of the most scsthing rebukss ever
administered to an Executive, OF to a majority
party in the Senate, within the Senate Cham
Der. He described, with some minuteness, the
long series of outrages that had been commit
ted with impunity upon the friends Of Freedom
IN Kansas. by a portion of the Pro-SlayeTy peo-
kie OF Missouri, and the officials sent to thai
Territory by the General Government. He
demonstrated that the Administration, and ia
Pro Slavery sympathizers, were themselves vio
lating every essential ingredient of the squatteI
sovereignty principle, and stultifyins all theiI
declarations, in the act of sitting the untTan2
melled exercise of organizing power by ma
s.rity of the resident population in Kansas
He denounced as false snG deceptive the docu
raents transmitted to Congress by the Execu
five, Snd which it had been proposed 70 print
and distribute through the Republic in vas
nambers. He showed that, although the ma
rnuders from Missouri were in every instance
the aggressors, and although the denuneistionI
IN the Presidents Proclamation, and in thu
Secretary of Wars instructions 10 Col. Sumner
seemed to be leyelled, u part, toward such In
termeddlers; yet, that no a~tsority was giVeI
10 Col. Sumner to bring bis forces into action
sxcept;ug in the case o. iHsurrectioa 09a0Bs
the people Of Kansas.
In reviewing the great invasion, when it was
designed to attack Lawrence, and when Gov
ernor Shannon approached that town at the
head of some four or FIVE hundred ProSiayery
men of Kansas, and about fifteen hundred
Missourians, General Wilson stated some very
plain facts, to prove the total unworthines'
and unfitness of Governor Shannon for the re
sponsibility intrusted to him.
The Senator from Connecticut, Mr.. TGGeey
who had approved the infamous laws made fol
Kansas, the Attorney General, whose energies
are given to crush the spirit of Freedom he
once professed to cherish, and the President o.

ADVANCE PAYMENT.

PHILADELPHIA, LIST mo. %, 1856.
To the Editor of the National Era:
lnasmuch as you stopped my paper without
request, had intended to leave it, not knowing
why publisher should be an exception to all
other operations, of making payment in ad-
vance, believing that even with yourself you do
not pay until labor is completed.
Yes-a newspaper publisher ought to be an
exception. Say that the Era has twenty-five
thousand subscribers. They are scattered
through all the States and Territories of the
Union. Suppose it were published on the
credit system-there would be forty or fifty
thousand dollars due in small sums of 81,
or Sl.5O. from twenty-five thousand debtors,
ranging from Maine to Florida, from New
York to California. Meantime, the cost of
printing this large edition-type-settng, press
work, paper, clerk hire, rent, fuel, lights, office
expenses be paid weekly, all in advance
Of the payments to be made by subscribers
and when the time comes to collect the infni-
tesimal sums due from them, it is out Of the
question to dream of employing collectors, and
at least one half tie debt ,cM remain unpaid.
This We know We tried the credit system
twelve years, and were always in debt We
have tried the advance system nine years, and
will never abandon it. We would rather print
5000 copies for advance payment, than 1000
copies for credit
We cannot know personally twenty-five
thousand subscribers. We may know that the
friend who wrote the foregoing is honest and
punctual, but his neighbor may be dishonest
or unpunctual. A subscriber at the end of
the year may be in debt, or sick, or away from
home, or engrossed in business, or shut up in a
snow bank, or dead, or careless.
Suppose one half fail in punctuality, the
editor is seriously embarrassed, or ruined: he
must bear the achole loss. But should he prove
dishonest or unable to continue his paper, no.
body is ruined, nobody embarrassed ag-
gregate loss is considerable, but it is divided
among thousands, each losing not more than
a dollar or two.
But, the fact is-it is thing not to be rea-
soned about. The Era stands upon the system
of advance payment, and can never stand on
any other.
