refusing to land at Alton.

ment.
Mr. Seward advocated his bill for the admis-
sion of Kansas with the Topeka Constitution.
Mr.. Reid replied to Mr.. Stewards remarks
relative to Slavery, saying that, when major
ity of the people of the North become prepared
to enforce the doctrine declared by Mr.. Seward,
this Y MON cannot last one hour longer.
Half past 8, A. M-Severai amendments of
comparative unimportance were adopted, and
others rejected.
Ar, Geyer, (National,) of Missouri, offered
an amendment, that no law shall be made or
have force or effect which sdal. require test
oath or an oath to support any act Of Congress,
or other legislative act, as a qualification for
any civil office or public trust, or for any en-
pieyment or profession, or to serve as Juror
or vote at sn election, or which shall impose
any tax upon or condition to exercise the right
of suffrage by any qualified voter, OF which
shall restrain or prohibit free discussion of any
Law or subject of legislation in the Territory, or
free expression Ct opinion thereon, by the people
of the Territory.
This amendment gave rise to debate in.
yolying the question of squatter sovereignty,
and whether Congress ought to interfere with
the people in the settlement of their own affairs
Mr.. Cass said some of the acts passed by the
Legislative Assembly of Kansas were disgrace
full TO the age. How could the psople properly
pass laws, unless they have the right of free
discussion?
The amendment was adopted by the follow.
