little interest to the inhabitants of the con-
tiguous States, personal or collectively, to
produce among them any political emotion
Climate, soil, production, hopes of rapid adj
vancement and the pursuit of happiness on
the part of settlers themselves, with good
wishes but no interference from without,
would have quietly determined the question
which is at this time of such disturbing
character.
But we are constrained to turn our atten-
ton to the circumstances of embarrassment
as they now exist. 1t is the duty of the
people OF Kansas to discountenance every act
or purpose of resistance to it's laws Above
all, the emergency appeals to the citizens of
the States, and especially of those contigu-
Gus to the Territory, neither by Intervention
of non-residents in elections, nor by unau-
thorized military force to attempt to encroach
upon or usurp the authority of the inhabi-
tants OF the Territory.
NO citizen of our country should permit
himself to forget that he is part of it's gov
eminent, and entitled to be heard in the de-
termination of it's policy and it's measures;
and that, therefore, the highest considera-
tons OF personal honor and patriotism re-
qulre INN to maintain, by whatever of DOW
er or influence he may possess, the integrity
and laws Of the Republic.
Entertaining these views, it will be nv
imperative duty to exert the whole power Of
the Federal Executive to support public Or
der IN the Territory; to vindicate its laws
whether Federal or local, against all attempts
OF organized resistance; and so to protect its
people in the establishment of their own in
stitutions, undisturbed by encroachments
from without, and in the full enjoyment OF
the rights of self-government assured to them
by the Constitution and the organic act OF
Congress.
Although serious and threatening disturb
ances in the Territory of Kansas, announced
to me by the Governor in December last,
were speedily quoted without eftiuson oil
blood, and in satisfactory manner, there
is, [ regret to say, reason to apprehend that
disorders will continue to occur there, with
increasing tendency to violence, until some
decisive measures be taken to dispose of the
question itself which constitutes the induce
ment or occasion of internal agitation and Of
external interference.
This, it seems to me, can best be accom-
plished by providing that, when the inhabi-
tants of Kansas may desire it, and shall be
Of sufficient numbers to constitute State,
a convention of delegates, dul y elected by
the qualified voters, shall assemble to frame
Constitution, and thus to prepare, through
regular and lawful means, for its admission
into the Union as State
| respectfully recommend the enactment
Of a law to that effect.
l recommend, also, that special appropri-
alton be made to defray the expense which
may become requisite in the execution of the
laws or the maintenance of public order in
the Territory of Kansas.

remarks about the financial condition Of the State

THE ACCIDENT ON THE OHIO AND PENN
SYLVAEIA RAILROAD.

PITTSBURGH, Tuesday, Jan. l, 1856.
The following are the particulars of the accident on
the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad, referred to In
our dispatch yesterday. About a p M. passenger
train going west came in collision with reght-train
coming east, at Darlington Summit. The freight
train wa. out of time and the conductor was probably
endeavorng to reach switch within short distance
The collision occurred heavy curve and both
trains were under full Roadway, consequently the loco
motives and some Of the cars were smashed to atoms
-Four persons were killed, namely: Mr.. Stokes agent
of the Newcastle and Erie Stage Company; man
named Johnston brother Of the landlord of the Enon
Valley Hotel; an Irishman, and another whose name
has not been ascertaned
About sixteen were more or less injured. The engi-
ncer of the passengerran was badly hurt IN the D"ck
and the fireman had one arm shattered. A Mr. John
Veach is among those dangerously wounded Inc
accident was caused by the watch Of the conductor o.
the frcight-ran being threequarters OF an hour TO
slow.
