enactng clause and inserting the bill passed in the Sc
nate Thursday. he asked It's immediate consideration.
Agreed 10.
Mr. DOUGLAS said the proposition before the Senate
plain one namely, whether they would admit Kansas
INTO the Union with the Topeka constitution or whether
they would substitute the proposition which had been
modified 70 osyiate the objections made against it, and
adopted py Inc Senate after full and thorough examna
ton the otter night. There was no evidence whether
the orty or minority Of the people OF Kansas voted

partial Unfair aud unsuitable He argued the fairness
and justice of the proposition submitted by him.
Mr.. CoIIAxfx, (nigger worshpperl Of VI, member
u the Committee Territories, said the bill reported
might appear very plausible, but tho existing crcum-
Of the rendered the adoption that
exceedingly improper He believed the only true and
sound for sording redress for existing evils was
hFst 70 remove the cause of those evils would not do
10 that those evils should be remedied and at the
same time, declare that the causes which produced them
should not be touched. Such course seemed TO be in
consistent unreasonable and paradoxical With re-
61rcnce 70 the provision allowing settlers to re-
turn 10 Kansas, he said there was blockade
stations full Of instruments Of cruelty, and
