ANOTHER IMPORTANT AccEssIoN.-Aexandre
Kayser, one of the leading Democrats and most
influential Germans of Missouri, has come out
in stirring letter to his fellow Germans, in
favor of John c. Fremont. He says:

punished outrage on Mr.. Sumner has more deep
ly shaken my faith in the democracy of the pre-
sent administration, than all their other delin-
quencies put together. | want TO see such vul-

COll8rGss,

Both branches of Congress adhere TO their
former positions on the army appropriation
bill, and the latest report represents the Sen
ate as determined to insist" until The first
of March next, unless The House is willing TO
weld the point. The Senate, however, now
propose to repeal some Of the more odious
cnactments of the Kansas bogus Legislature,
and thus hope to induce the House TO vote
men and money for the purpose of keeping
up the prosecution of the free state settlers.
Republican members of Congress should yield
the point on no consideration whatever. They
ask nothing but what is right, and the people
Nillsustain them in insisting upon their amend
ment, even if the Senate should sit until ne xt
March Pro-slavery doughfaces now ac-
knowledge that they have done wrong-tha!
certain laws which they have been enforcing
at the point of the bayOnet, and which the
Senate would have money appropriated to en-
iuIce, are brutal and inhuman-that the pris-
uncrs taken at Lawrence should be restored
TO lberty-and yet they will not consent to a
provision in the army bill that will remedy
these evils. Their sincerity therefore is quite
questionable, and the House she uld continue
10 insist en- having the question settled in
black and white.

THE GREAT Issue The disagreements
between the two houses were, at last, mar
rowed down to the single issue in regard to
enforcing the laws Of the bogus legislature of
Kansas. The House introduced an amend
mcnt that none of the money appropriated in
the army bill should be used for enforcing
these laws, and that the arms of the govern
ment now in the hands Of the border rufians
should be Withdrawn, the rivers re-opened,
and the forces of the government used in a
legitimate way for the protection of the set
tiers. This provisi, n the Senate would not
pass, and, rather than adopt it, they resolved
that the whole appropriation for the army
should fail. The appropriation was therefore
lost on the single issue of enforcing those bo-
gus laws. Mr.. Campbell, who had yielded
everything else, refused to yield this point
He planted himself firmly on it and gave no.
tce that if defeat occurred the whole respon-
sibility would devolve on the Senate, as moth
ing was demanded in qualification but what
The constitution contemplated. His speech
made a great sensation, and he was much
congratulated Blade.

Democratic Senators are beginning TO be-
leve that something ismeant by the unyield-
ing frmness of majority Of the House, on
the appropriation for Kansas mobocrats.--
They now begin to confess their sins before
the world. Mr.. Baysrd. democratic Senator
from Delaware, said in the course of his
remarks on the 26th inst, that "he was free
to admit that some of the laws of Kansas
were shocking to the local sense of the COM
munity, and that some of them invaded nat
ural laws" Mr.. Weller, during the same
discussion, said "he would admit that some
of them the Kansas laws were oppressive
and infamous laws, which had never found
their way into the statutes Of a free people in
any age of the world. Why should not the
Senate declare them null and void He had
before declared that many of them were not
only in derogation of the organic laws, but Of
the constitution of the United States. Free
dom of speech was guaranteed by the con-
stituton, but by some of these laws it was
denied"
This is plain talk from the other side Of the
house, and will do much towards satisfying
the incredulous of the justice of the course
pursued by the free state men, and also is a
virtual acknowledgment Of the correctness Of
the position occupied by the majority in the
popular branch of Congress. How they can
longer ask for money to pay for enforcing
such " unnatural" Oppressive and Infamous
laws" is beyond the power Of human ken.

slavery is wrong, and but for the constitution

and other places of sacred memory which are
consecrated to freedom by the blood of patr-

the present struggle in Kansas. They lamen-
ted that men, peaceable citizens" had been

women and children driven from the terrific
ry, and offered to furnish protection to such
as would take shelter under their roofs. So
the crusade is becoming disgusting to Missou-
