The Kansas Question in the Hsus.

Our report Of the proceedings of the
House on Thursday was so indefinite a. to
/ leave us in the dark as 10 their FINAL action
Oh the Kansas propiso. The following dis.
! patch to The N. 7. Tribune will show pre-.
! cisely what was done:--.
Three cheers for the House! The Pres.
tident's Message has increased our numbers,
and strengthened the weak. Thanks to
the Rew Compensation bill. The House
was quite large, one hundred and eigty.two
members being present, and only forty
ssgen absent.
There was speedy organization Of both
Houses, after which the Senate adjourned
TO await the action Of the Hou,e, which bo.
dy walked square mp to the work, spurnin2
all other business except that to which the
President had called their especial atten.
ton. Agreeably TO his earnest request.
and without endangeriug the safety Of the
| Union moment by delay, the majority Of
OF the House submitted the message to the
| Com. OF Ways and Means, which com. re-
! ported the Identical bill lost on the l6tf
mat with the proviso that neither the ar
I my nor the means shall ever support the
bogus laws Of Kansas; and the House or
defrd that il be engrossed and take its Sd
reading, without much opposition, when
the qucstion REQUIRED on its final passage
and the yeas ano nays being called. 1t was
passed BY vote of 90 to IS. Upon this
glorious work the House adjourned at ~
until IL Tomorrow.
This has been the best days work OF the
season. The President sent in q message
urgently appealing for money to prevent
the disbandng of the army and to fight the
Indians. The House accordingly repasset
The Army bill with the Kansas proriso BY eight
majority; but, strangely enough, every po
litical friend Of the President forgot bis sp'
peal and voted No.

The Chicago Democrat Of last Saturday
makes the following appropriate remark,
on the accounts which have been recently
received from Kansas -
Cali our intelige nee relative to the new
outbreak in Kansas comes through Border
Rutfian sources. 1t is, of course, exagger.
sted, and much OF it is false. It is probably
promulgated at this time to cover new in.
vasion OF Kansas by the Missouri Sayages
II the Free State men have been driven
TO arms, it has been in self-de fence. And
we trust that they will defend themselves
The sacking Of Lawrence was submitted to
because it was done under color Of authori.
" Of the U. States.
And new the question arises, will the
men of the North quietly see their brethren
murdered by these Rufiiansl
There have been preparations for forey
going forward for some time past. And the
reports Of those outrages by the Free State
men are cent out TO inhame and rally the
Missouri bandits. II lie not in the character
Of the settlers from the North to commence
an aggressive warfare. And for this r. ason
we know the allegations against them in
this behalf must be false. II will be some
days before we shall hear the truth of the
matter.
o, The bitter, bitter fruits OF the repeal
OF the Missouri Compromise,
