MIR. SCENARIOS sPEECu.

On our first page we publish the opening
and concluding portions of MIR Stewards
speech on Kansas affairs, delivered in the
United States Senate on "Wednesday Of last
week. These portions include about half Of
the speech aud embrace the most effective
passages.
The intervening portion arraigns the Pres
'dent on the statements of his special Kansas
message, argues the facts of the settlement of
Kansas and its invasion from Missouri with
great completeness, proving as well by the
presidents own testimony and by Atchison's
and that of others of the invading party, as by
that of the settlers themselves, all that the
friends of freedom have ever claimed on the
subject; and then proceeds, in behalf of Kan
sas, with almost thrilling solemnity and pow
er, to arraign the president before the Senate
and the country as the cause Of all the trou-
bic and suffering which the territory has ex-
.perienced. He quotes, with marvellous ap-
plicability to the case, the arraignmeut of
George Ill, by the colonial Congress of I776,
and concludes this most effective review of
the presidents conduct with these words: -
"The conviction of the offending president
IS complete, and now he sinks out of view
His punishment rests with the people of the
United States, whose trust he has BETRAYED.
HIS conviction was only incidental TO the bu
slness which is the order of the day. The
order of the day is the redress of the wrongs
of Kansas"
The speech is marked with all that ability,
of reasoning, and those enlarged views of
craftsmanship which characterize its author.
II has excited warm Communications from va
rious quarters where, heretofore, the political
principles of the distinguished Senator from
New York have been denounced in no meas
ured terms. The New York Mirror, Jour
nal of the most conservative stripe, a sumner
ter of the dead horse team lately started Mt
Philadelphia, and whose editor has long been
regarded as the personifealiou of intense
"silver-grey-ism," has the maguanimiry to
say of MIR Stewards speech for free Kan
SASS
'lt will not he denied by any candid, fair
minded reader, that MIR Stewards recent speech
on the Kansas question is one of the ablest
speeches that the Senate has listened to, or
that the people have read on the subject. 1t
IS a calm, dignifetl, patriotic, statesinan-like
document, and one in which we find little or
nothing to censure. That il truly represents
the sentiment of the great body OF the people
Of the North, it would be false and foolish to
deny.
In private life, Mr. Seward is gentleman
without reproach or blemsbj aud in his more
recent public course, even his political enc
mes, Il they were honest enough to confess
IT, md far more in him that is worthy of com
menlatlon tnnn OF censure; aud the Mirror
is independent enough to say So"

The KANSAS DERArE.-The Washington
Union remarks with regardto Judge Collamer's
Kansas speech in the Senate on Friday =
Mr.. Colamer Of Vermont occupied two and
a half hours yesterday 10 finishing his argument
on The Kansas question. His manner conlinu-
ed to be corieous and digui6ed, with an occa-
slonal episode of waqRery, TO the close and
we must say that, whilst we dissent totally from
his conclusions as well as many of his facts, he
showed that he had investigated the subject with
great labor. His leading object, yesterday, was
10 meet the position of Judge Douglas, that, il
Il be admitted tina. there were frauds in the sew
en- districts in Kansas in which Governor Rec
der withheld certificates, still that he gave Ger.
'lhcales 10 large majority which constituted
the legislature valid body. Mr.. Collamer un-
deriook, by detailed reference TO the docu-
menls, TO prove that Illegal votes were given in
sveral other districts besides the seven in which
certificates were withheld.

9th Of June, and the nomination is adopted
by the Republicans at Philadelphia, the North
would be sure lo win.
