We ask every Republican tn read to his neigh
bOrs and those he may meet the Provso inserted
In the Army Appropriation bill by the House and
stricken out by the united vote of the great ,jor-
~ Of the Senate who are supporters Of Fillmore or
Buchanan That Proviso ID in the following words:
Prorded, hOtcerer, and II Is hreby declared, This.
part Of the military force OF the United States for
the supJ ort Of which appropriations are made by tbs
act shall be employed in aid OF the enforcement OF any
enactment Of the body claiming to be the Territoria
Legislature Of Kansas, until such enactment shall have
been affirmed and approved by Congress; but this
provso shall not he so construed a. 70 prevent the
President from employing there an adequate military
force. but eha De Bis duty TO employ such force
prevent the invasion of said Territory by armed bands
of non residents, any other body Of non-resldents,
acting or claiming 10 az: "a posse comH0tus OF any
officer in said Territory the enforcement OF any such
tractments and 10 protect the persons and property
therein and upon the natona highway eadipg TO said
Territory from all unlawful searche and seizures and
il shall be bis further duty to AXE efficient measures to
compel the return of and withhold all of the
United States distributed in to sad Territory in
pursuance of any law Of the United States authorizing
the distribution Of arms to the States and Territories.
II will be seen that the President is nowise re-
strained by this Proviso from UNFOLDING and enforc
ing the Constitution and all the laws Of the United
States and putting down all opposition thereto, no
matter by whom made; on the contrary, he is at
liberty to employ the whole Army for that purpose
and to call out in addition the Militia Of every
State in the UniOn should he think proper. The
passage of the BILL as reported to and sanctioned
by the House leaves the President free TO employ
all the power and force Of the Nation in putting
down any shadow Of resistance to the Federal Gov
eminent or any act of Congress. ALI that the
House asks is that the Federal arms and treasure
shall not be employed to "crush out " the FREQ
State men of Kansas by enforcing against them the
acts of the Border Rufian assemblage elected by
Missouri Bowie knives and ballots on the Both OF
March, 1e55, which usurped the name and fanc-
tions of Territorial Legislature OF Kansas, aud at
Shawnee Mission last summer enacted all manner
of claws" affirming and justifyiDg the existence OF
Slavery in Kansas and denOunclng penalties OF
whipping state prison and DEATH for all manner OF
resistance to such Slavery
Practically, the President will employ the Army
just as he fit to do, whether the bill passes
with or without the PrOvisO-or, in fact whether
the bill should or should not pass. The pretense
that the Army will be disbanded if the ApprOpria-
ton is not made q. this Session is the sheerest
CANNON. The Army has been going on for the
last seven weeks without appropriasions-thoSe
already made extending only to the 3Osh of june
last 1t will 90 on just 80 till next Winter if the
two Houses should fail to pass any bill at this
Session. What the Republicans are struggling for
10 the moral advantage to the cause Of Free Kan
sas of a vote of Congress questioning the validity
of the Border Ruffian claw" We want to
teach Judge Lecompte and his gang that mn
may defy these abominable Examinations of tyranny
without committing treason against the United
States and that Congress says 30. That is the
sole practical good of carrying the Proviso.
We fear the bare majority so CALAMITY
presented By the friends of Free Kansas in
the House cannot be maintained through the
week now openipg-.hat the allies OF the Border
Rufiaus will cal back absentees enough to reject
the PrOvso and pass the bill without il. But even
such defeat i'll be the next thing to victory if
the Republicans stand to their guns and go down
with colors nyiog. We have no majority aud
never had, in the present House whea full; when
we have carried any point, it was by the help of
small segment of the Fimoreites who realize that
to vote against Free Kansas is to forfeit the favor
of their constituents and renounce adj hopes OF a
reelection. The Fillmore Press is now so gencr-
ally and bitterly hostile to the House Proviso that
we are prepared to see, at any moment, enough
of these go to the ProSlavey side to pass the
bill without the PrOvsO. But even though it had
no other result than to show the Country that no
party earnestly and thoroughly upholds the Free
State cause but that which supports Fremont and
Dayton, the stand on the ProyisO will not have
been made in vain,
