irtmation iha. treason had been committed
came in the NJ, sage of the President of the United
states 10 January, 1856. One word, my friends, in
relation to these indictments for treason. There Is
sta ge state of things and remarkable coincidence,
that the Chief Justice of the Territory OF Kansas lun-
cor scously perhsps laid down the sane doctrine
which made j, fries immortally infamous. In the
reign of Chsrl.s of England, Jeifnes LAID down the

villain that has ever incuno.reu the earthi

has ever raised bis voice 10 apologize for
that Infamous conduct. He stands in unmtigated
irfamy without one man to apologize for him. His
oody Aseizs" live in the memory OF every citizen
of England That greatest crime that man was ever
guilty Of aud by which he sacrificed 80 many victims,
wss The doctrine of constructive tressonthe doctrine
that every man who resist' the process OF the laH

the Tenitory Ct Kansas, lays Down precisely the
same doctrIe hlsses and says that the Free
men who resist the laws OF the United St.tes are
ouily of constructive treason. He had some difficulty

that because the laws of the Territory are made by
