Inc independence Dispatch states that the
militia Of the border counties in Missouri are tc
rendezvous at Fort Scott, in this Territory, on
the 2sth of February. What business has the
military forces of Missouri in Kansas and why
do they concentrate their strength at Fort Scot,
at that particular juncture? Ii is a fact, tina,
military organizations have been forming every.
where along the border in Missouri. CONSISTING
generally Of mounted rifemen We have oh.
served these demonstrations for some time, and
now comes notice to invade the Territory on
the 2sth inst =
Davy Atehison, in his speech at Platte City a
few days ago. told his friends to hold themselves
In readiness against the 4th of March; that their
services would then be demanded; that they
would be called upon to march into the territory.
Is it probable their mission is peaceabIe one5
If so they have much right here as any CHI
zen. II they are coming for the purpose of de.
struction, and TO drive out the Free State settlers
as their press have enunciated from week to

The Border Ruffans claim fellowship with the
Democratic party. They hang all their hopes OF
conquering and Africanizing Kansas upon its sue
cess stringfellow, in a recent speech on the Dor

their hirelngs, who are engaged in voting and
legisating for the new Territory

Anti,Nebraska Democrats of Iowa, who still
adhere to the Locofoco party, foolishly expecting
Its pro-slavery ground, how do you like your

Platform Adopted by tho Republican
Convention.
The following is the declaration of principles
adopted by the late Pittsburgh Convention:


First--We demand and shall attempt to Sc
cure the repeal of all laws which allow of the
introduction of Slavery into the Territories once
consecratod to freedom; and will resist, by every
constitutional means, the existence of slavery in
any ofthe Territories of the United States
Second-We will support by every lawful
means our brethren in Kansas, in their constitu-
tional and manly resistance TO the usurped au-
thority of their lawless invaders, and will give
the full weight of our political power in favor of
the immediate admission of Kansas to the Union
as a Free sovereign, independent State.
Misunderstanding that the present National
Administration has shown itself weak and faith
less and that its continuance in power is identi-
fed with the progress of the Stare Power to Ma
tional supremacy, with the exclusion of Free
dom from the Territories, and with increasing
civil diseord, it is leading purpose of our or
ganization TO resist and overthrow it.
Accompanying the above resolutions was an adj
dress, of which the following is the substance:
The address commences BY expressing unalter-
able attachment to the Union. and deterniina-
ton to preserve it at the same time it recom-
mends all rtrucRepablieans to oppose the further
extension of slavery. 1t should be kept where
Il now exists. A history of the various acts of
the General Government regarding slavery was
Ea'NN's ~nu on aSSoolit pI uie TtCeut Qoiia,S III
Kansas Congress has constitutional right to
exclude slavery from the Territories 1t hasno
right 70 confer popular sovereignty on Kansas
| and Nebraska, thus giving away its own author
ity over Territories. The address calls upon
all Republicans to support the Constitution
against the assaults its enemies, and recon-
mends energetic measures for the election of
the candidates OF the Presidential Convention
Both address and resolutions were adopted with
nine cheers
win be rendered that the Republican Nomi-
mating Convention is 70 meet at Philadelphia on
the 18th Of june next-the slss anniversary of

bestowed upon the products of the dairy than
any other. Any thing viii. sell. Little distinc-
