uealedt The Legislature of Kansas CONSISTS VI u u

were elected for two years and cannot be replnI" m %
January. 1888 There is TO be an election ~
Members of Assembly the first Monday in De-
toter of this year. BY way of preparation for
that election, the free settlers have been driven
out in great numbers. No Others are allowed TO come
cans into Hungary through Austria or Russia in the
late Uunoarian war as to attempt now tue emigration
of fee settlers into Kansas through the state OF MIS-
souli or up the River Missouri-the common highway,
as once fancied of all the people OF all the States
By means therefore of this double process of eHpul,
sion and exclusion it is very probable that there viii
not be free settlers enough left on the hr't Monday o.,
October TO elect Free House of Assembly But II
here were and Assembly were to meet on the hrst
Of Jantaly, 1857 desrous of repeating the laws which
establish Slavery and make criminals OF oil who op
pore IT, there any likelihood Of the Council passing
ihe repeating laws There is great difference, 1t
must BE- lec0llected, between making and unmaking
law Mr.. Buchanans party has made the law; the
ta,k il now 10 unmake it. The Council, consisting
rarity of Missourians and elected principally
by the people Of that patriotic State is as
m, sent Senate OF the United States, with Doug
las dnd Coss its leaders is likely to vote for the
repeal Of the Kansas act. It seems Impossible,
thrrefore under the rule Of this Administration, 10 get
Slayely out of Kansas before the election and session
Of Lew Council in 1853. Are you willing 10 trust the
chances Of the election for that year otter Slavery has
tccu three ypais established in the Territory prop
,ry invested in slaves the discussion OF the right ot
SlGyey forbidden; free emigration impeded, II not
stopped and all the influence of the shareholders ex'
eted as it is by themselves and through the Gen
eral Government Imagine, however, agaust Proba-
bilny that a Free Assembly and a Free Council hre
chosen for 1853 and that they pass law repeating the
slave laws-0re you sure that Governor appointed ny
Mr.: Buchanan under the strong pro-Slavery influences
which will surround him will fanctiOn such q law?
And If he does not, IL must be repassed by two
thirds of both Houses. Are you willing TO risk
the fate Of Kansas on such q contingency Will It
be said thai Congress will repeal the obnoxious laws
This is more hopeless even than the other. You
know the struggle in the last session TO abolish some oil
them and that il failed entirely. The House OF ReP
reseIatyts attempted it, but the Senate resoutely
r, fused unless the repeal were accompanied with q
condition that State Constitution should be formed
by Convention chosen after the process of expulsion
of the free settlers had been going on for months with
oct submitting the Constitution TO the people for their
ratification. You know alo, that provision IN the
Amy bill prohibiting the President from using the
amy in execution If these odious laws rejected
and again by the Senate, and finally ot in
tie House of Representatyes-all the Buchanan and
nearly all the Fillmore voting against it. You
will Iecoeo also. that in order to relieve the question
from the embarrassment of other matter, MIR. Trumbul
brought forward in the Senate simple bill for the
peal and that that was promptly laid upon the table.
All schemes for the repeal Of any Of these laws
wee thus totally lost. But if they had succeeded,
they would have accomplished little toward the exclu
sion of Slavery the pacicatOn Of the Territory.
No person of any influence on the Buchanan side,
and none, 80 far as | am aware, on Mr. FillmOres,
ever proposed to declare the Legislature Illegal
to rescind the law of Slavery No, tellow-citizens,
there is no hope of the peaceful solution of the ques
ton OF Freedom Slavery In Kansas but in the rrult
of this election II Mr.. Buchanan is elected, the pre-
sent usurping Legislature of Kansas and all ito abom
Unable laws are to be supported by the whole power OF
the Federal Government. This Legislature and these
laws have already introduced Slavery, and TO drive it
out, if the Republican party is defeated will be harder
wok than any that has been performed IN this genera
tcn; for, with Slavery areacy admitted, with laws
which punish felony all questions OF ts rghtiul ad
mission with an elective franchise sdjusted as to
srve the Missouri borderers and repe the free settlers
with Freemen driven into exile and Others excluded
from entrance, it will be next 10 miracle 10 get
q free constitution. No hope remains to them, am
persua led aid no peace to the country, but in the
success of the Republican party. the election Of Mr.
Fremont, and tie reputation by new Admuistra
ton Of the Legislature which tbe tuians Of the border
elected and the laws which thee usurping LEGISLATOR
went through the forms Of enactng.
