Will the Republican Papers please


As the Republican papers are very fond oc-
casionaly, of copying articles from the ,Steubes"
Ui1e Union, will they please be so kind as to
copy the following?--
"A Very Rad Move.
The Senate Bill for settling affairs in Kansas
was amended in a very important particular be-
fore its passage. The Kansas Nebraska bill con.
tanned provision to the effect that foreigners
in those territories should be permitted to vote
as soon as they had declared their intention to
become citizens, without waiting the three years
required in the States before final papers are is.
sued. This provision was incorporated into
most Of the previous acts organizing territorial
governments, and was put into the KanSas-N Ne.
braska bill in pursuance Of precedent. In the
bill which has just passed the Senate, a clause
was added which repeals this provision. This
is very unfortunate for the cause of free %insttu
tions in Kansas, because it is we'll known that
a large majority Of the foreign em;grants are
opposed tc the institution of slavery, and their
votes are thus lost on all questions in the terri
tory relating toit We annex the ayes and nos
upon the passage Of the proposition:
YEAs--Messrs. Adams, Bayard, Bell of Tenn,
Blggs Broadhead, Brown, Clay, Clayton, COL.
LAMER, Crittenden, FESSENDEN, Fitzpat-
rick, FOOTE, FOSTER, Geyer, Hunter. Iver.
SON, Mallaroy, Mason, Reid, Thompson of Ky,
Yulee--22.
NAYs.-Messrs Allen, Bigler Butler, Bright,
Cass, Dodge, DOUGLAS Evans, Jones of Iowa
PudH, SEWARD, Slidell, Toombs, Weller. Will
son, Wright-16.
It will be seen from this that but two north.
ern democrats voted for the repeal, viz: Messrs.
Brodhead of Pennsylvania, and Wright of New
Jersey. Mr. Brodhcad voted against the incor-
poration Of the provision into the Kansas bill in
the first instance, and is therefore consistent
Mr.. Wright voted in favor Of it, but has now
changed over to the know nothings. But we
particularly direct attention to the action Of
the opposition Senators from the north, who
profess to be so deeply affected for fear slavery
should go to Kansas. Messrs. Collamer and
Foote, Of Vermont, Foster of Connecticut, and
Fessenden of Maine, voted with the south and
carried the proposition Had they stood by tho
northern democrats and voted no, it would have
been defeated. Hundreds, and probably thou.
saeds, of foreigners in Kansas would thus have
retained the privilege Of voting, ana who can
calculate Of how much importance these votes
would have proven to the future of the territory?
These men head Emigrant Aid Societies, and
pretend to be busy and anxious to get men to
. - e.. GEoEo
they turn in and dstranchise more Free State
men in Kansas than all their Aid Societies ever
have or ever will send there.
We have long believed that large portion Of
the opposition leaders are secretly anxious that
K lnsas should become a slave State in order
that they may carry the northern elections by
holding the Democrats responsible for such .
result Upon no other principle can we account
for the systematic, industrious and uncsasing
exaggeration of every disorderly transaction in
that territory; when the necessary and inevita-
BILE consequence must be known to them that
they are thus preventing emigration from the
free states and aiding the very thing they seem
to deplore. This action of these four Now
Ell 5iitiu OeLldtOES confirms our DoliSi tAtaD Vuu
Black Republican leaders care nothing about
the extension of slavery, but are willing to see
it extended indefinitely if they can only keep
clear of the responsibility, and can retain and
get Office by throwing the responsibility upon
somebody else. 9 ef baf
We beg to call the attention Of those Ger
mans whoare said to have joined the Black Re.
publican party on account of The supposition
that its success is necessary to keep slavery out
of Kansas, to this vote of the four leading
Black Republican Senators. They deny to for.
egners in Kansas the same privileges which are
extended to, them in Nebraska, Minnesota,
Washington, Oregon. Utah and New Mexico
when every body must see that such conduct
vastly multiplies the chances Of making Kansas
a Slave State. Their hatred to foreigners ID
greater than their love of freedom Ii slavery
gains permanent foothold in Kansas, and Il
the Union is shaken from centre to circum!er-
ence in consequence, heavy share of responsl.
