jurisdiction Of Congress amounts to, If 1t cannot
be applied to uphold the constitution, to enforce
order, to repel lawless invaders to repeal despotic
Territorial acts, and to say how the federal moneys
for Territorial uses shall be applied Gen. Cass is
in position to speak without fear of the South
ern secession dragons of the democratic party
His time for the Presidency has gone by. He isfree
to act for the good of the country he has nothing
to expect Of future democratic conventions. As
q friend Of Mr. Buchanan he should interpose to
save him from this bloody code of Kansas
The dead weight of this Pierce administration
and its border ruffan Kansas Legislature and
Kansas laws is more than Buchanan can carry
Mr.. Weller would relieve him Of part of the
crushing burden. What says General Casss Il
be afraid to open his mouth?
The issue in Kansas is now the establishment Of
lavery in or the expulsion of slavery from the Ter
ritory, by force of arms The bloody Kansas code
of Mr. Pierce and his rufiian confederates has
brought the question to this ultimatum of civil
war. 1t is for Congress to decide whether this
war shall cease or go on. II it is to go on, all
hat is required to give it full scope is to vote Mr.
Pierce his Kansas appropriations without why
or wherefore. But if there be majority Of the
Senate who really desire peace in Kansas, they
have only to adopt the proposition Of Mr.. Weller
and the House proyiso to the Army bill to secure
it. Wipe ont these border ruffian courts stop
the supplies to Mr.. Pierce's border ruf6aA
agents; provide for the protection Of all
bora ride settlers in Kansas; provide the
necessary securities fer their constitutional
rights, and peace and law and order will follow
the extinction Of bloody ruffanisu as the morn
ing follows the night.
The admissions and the proposition Of Mr..
Weller place the democratic party in a position
of responsibility from which it cannot escape by
lodging. They place this Pierce administration
and its Kansas policy, which Mr.. Buchanan is to
follow up in the blacklist infamy before the PEG
pie. The House of Representatives stands con
fessediy in the right and it we're better thou
sand times better, to let the army be disbanded
| than to make ii the tool Of Mr.. Pierce's bloody
code Of Kansas, his bloody agents and their
bloody work. As between Fremont and Bucha-
man, the House standing fast to their saving con-
ditions for Kansas, army or no srmy, may safely
leave the issue with the people.

observer, If he has not already been convinced
by the speeches and writings Of Gov. Wise of
Virginia, that the South look forw ..rd to the con-
summation Of the Ostend polio v, and to Mr..
Buchanan as the agent to carr it out. The ga
gacity which he displayed abr cad is to be exert
ed at home. His acceptap &c of the nomination
is full enough and wide Tough to permit him to
pursue the scheme Of obtaining Cuba at the
cost Of war with Sps in if necessary. All the
South viii have to Do is to sound the alarm, and
declare their instito ions to be in danger and Mr.
Bnchanan's disc .etionr will rapidly come into
play.

shows iortn e future policy Of the South-their
