NO CHANGE OF ISSUES TO BE TOLERATED.

The New York Evening Post is deuding itself and i'm
posing upon its readers when it gives currency to the idea
that the democrats have the rcuoest disposition change
Rodiy the Kansas issuc The bare iniimstion Of viii
ngness to listen to such policy would suspicion
upon any one who claims to he true democrat. When
The Post jumps the conclusion that Judge Douglas
tired Of The Kansas question because be takes OCCASION
upon the receipt Of helae stirring from Nicaragua
express his sympathy for General Walker that journal
does the goest injustice the great champion Of const
,utionAI selfgovernment in Kansas
We surprised that so idle an intimation should have
found moments entertainment in the columns OF the
Post Having dedicated his best energies to the mainte
Of the principle Of the klnsas bill ever since lis intro
dueuon into the Senate, having bravey defed and trum

truth would be act Of unparalleled nfatuatou and
folly Judge Douglas indicate the slightest disposition

Douglas such act Of stupidity and weakness.
The real fact H. that the editors Of the Post better

Wilson for their cowardy effort to escape from the Issues
% which they bad protested be willing 70 20 before the
country and they had heard his potent voice procaimng
at the democratic party defed ts opponents to an open
and undsguised trial OF the ssus involved IN The Kansas
question. Under such circumstances we feel justified 10
Tie remark that the Post knowingly misspresented Judge
DO1gass purpose when II charged him with disposition

introduced into the Senate by Mr. Weller
We tell The Post and All its abolition friends that they
