There is one point made in thisspeech which,
s;nco the recent Presidential Message on
Kansas. Mr.. Hallett will find himself Obliged 10
modify Luckily il does not cost hun much 10
swallow down his old opinions. The following Is
the passage to which we refer, and pretty lair
specimen of the slang-whanging, when makes
up the staple of the speech.

tion of slavery or No Slavery in Kansas Just where

lApI clause.
Mr.. Hallett has got to recant this doctrine of
nop.interference. The President says he shall in
terere. ANY attempt to organize government
intends to put down by force. Mr.. Hallett must
make new speech, showing the justice, propriety
and absolute necessity of interference He may
still be INDUCED in the privilege of maintaining that
for the President to interfere to protect the settlers
of Kansas against the inroads Of Border Ruiians
would be illegal and unnecessary, but he must
maintain the imperative obligation on the President
to interfere TO prevent the majority of the citizens
of Kansas from organizing government of their
own in opposition to that of the Border Rufians.
Considering all the speeches made by MIR. Hallett
on Rhode Island affairs, his denunciatiOn of those
who would not submit to the DOrr Constitution as
"Algerines" and his elaborate arguments before
the Supreme Courts Ofthe United States on behalf OF
the validity and binding force of that Constitution,
this may come rather hard. But it must be done;
and in doing it, Mr.. Hallett can console himself
with the reflection that be is by no means the first
creature in the world to do that sort of thing.
Compare, for instasce, the Qualifications which
NAV now be read of this same Mr. Hallett in The
Boston Post, with the lifelike description formerly
given of him in that paper, as "soldler OF for
tune" who only pretended to be Democrat for
the sake of getting an Office. AS Mr.. Halletts
the franks of Know Nothing Members of Congress,
it would be well, perhaps, if some of our Boston
Correspondents would send us the character OF
him drawn by The Post in order thatthe recipients
of his speeches may better understand the weight
to which his opinions and assertions are entitled.
