hammatory speeches made here by Northern
men, Kansas would now be as quiet as any
part OF the country. The Mssourians, as
charged were not responsible for the distnr-
Dances
Mr. Savage, of Tenn. said it was the duty
OF the President to enforce the laws and sup
press all instructions; hence the propriety OF
keeping military forces in Kansas for the pres
ervation Of peace. He characterized the OBJ
Jcet OF the amendment to be to seize power
which Congress has no right to exercise and as
part oil game to obstruct the operation of the
laws
Mr.. Sherman of Ohio said when he was in
Westport he saw large force of armed Mis-
sourlans, taking up the line of march for Kan
sas to enforce the pretended laws. These
things are now done. Massachusetts, men, and
Others from Free States, are preve nted from
travelling over the highways by HISTORIANS
and excluded from the territory
Mr.. Cumback of Indians said the amendment
is to prevent the enforcement OF laws never
passed by the people Of Kansas. He was glad
that the opposite side Of the House intended to
place themselves on the ground of carrying out
the original plot of rcpcallng the Missouri com
promise to make Kansas slave State Free
State men have right to go there in such
Numbers as they choose.

From Washington.

On the 22nd both Houses passed resolut lion
to adjourn on the 18th of August.
On the 24tl the House went into committee
on the Appropriation bills.
Mr. Barbour of Ind moved to amend the
clause appropriating So 275 900 for the of pay
the army, by adding disapproval of the code
of alleged laws of Kansas, and the manner
they are enforced expressly declaring that un-
til they shall he confirmed by Congress, no part
Of the federal military forces shall be employed
for their enforcement nor shall any citizen Of
Kansas he compelled to act as posse comitatus Of
any officer acting as Marshal or Sheriff in the
territory
Mr. Barbour said his amendment was to
stop resolo ton, by preventing the enforcement
of laws passed by usurpation, and disgracelul
and shameful in their character. Never before
had the army been employed to arrest or dis
perse citizens presumed to be guilty of viola
ting sham laws.
Mr.. Phelps replied that there shall be nc
laws for the goveronment of 10000 or 30 ,00(
people, and would close the Courts against in
juries in civil cases. The army had been sent
to Kansas in obedience to the applications o
the free State men of their protection.
Mr.. Stephens Of Mo did not think Congress
had the power to control the Presidents in thu
manner proposed. The President being Com
mander-in-Chief of the army they could no
impose conditions; The Legislature, nothing
having been disclosed to the country, was legal

changed by the proper authority. If he ha
his way he should withdraw the army fror
Kansas, believing the people capable of sell

Mr. Giddings of Ohio declared that Nilsson
rians, and not the people of Kansas, frame

potism never before known. He was wilin
that the army should be withdrawn, and nj

Court. Hopkins proceeded to the Office Of
DR.. Ashe, Navy Agent, for the purpose Of
arresting j. R. Maoney, charged with at

Illinois Central r. r. Lands.

The lands offered for sale by the Illinois Gen.
trail Rail Road Company we're granted by
the United States to the State Of Illinois by
the Act of Doth September, 1850. All the
conditions stipulated in that act have been
fulfilled, and the title to these lands can no
longer be affected by legislation.
BY the Act of 10th February 1851, the
State of Illinois Incorporated this Company,
and directed the Governor to convey to said
Company, by Deed in fee simple, all of
said lands, &C., which was done.
The said Act further required said Com.
pany to execute Deed of Trust OF all of
said lands, &c, to certain persons named
therein by the State to secure the perform
ance of the conditions and stripulations re.
quired thereby. The Bonds issued under
this trust are being paid as fast as the money
is received from the sale Of the lands set
apart for that purpose. All Bonds received
Tor lands, or purchased with the proceeds of
such lands, are officially cancelled by the
Trustees.
Where payment is made in full, the pur-
chaser at once obtains his title from the
Trustees appointed by the State. If tie sale
is on credit, however, the title is not given
till final payment is made, but the purchaser
receives Il Contract, STIMULATING that such
title will be given on full payment. and COM
pIiance with the conditions specified therein
Each payment for lands sold on credit can be
made in Construction Bonds, Or cash. and i
in the latter, it is applied to the purchase O.
such Bonds; aud the particular tract is al
once exempted from liability, and pcrtec
title given by the trustees-beng, In fact
the first conveyance under the authority o
the General Government.
The sales are made under the direction o
the Trustees and are authorized by an Act o
the State Legislature. The lands thus sol'
are exempted from taxation by said law
