Justice Lecompte to the Grand jury We be-
lieye TINT every Free State man now in Kan

last few months, i. amenable to the charge
Of ''treason." Every man who has even
spoken Unexpectedly Of the peculiar in
stitution," or in any manner resisted any one
Of the laws Of the bogus Legislature, Is lia-
BILE to indictment rs . traitor. We have al.
ready published the famous charge of Judge
Lecompte to the Grand Jury, delivered just
before the destruction Of Lawrence, but one
portion OF it is so extraordinary that We re-
produce it ~ legal curiosity
"This Territory was organized By an act
OF Congress, and, SO far, its authority 10
from the Uni tod States. II has . Legisla-
ture elected in pursuance Of that organic act.
This Legislature, being aninstrument OF Cen
gress by which it governs the Territory, has
passed laws. These laws, therefore, arc OF
United States authority and making; and oil
who reeist these laws resist the lower and
authority Of the United States, and are,
therefore, guilty of high treason.
Snow, gentlemen, il you find that any
persons have resisted these laws, then you
must under your oaths find bills against such
persons for high treason. II you find thu,
no such resistance has been made, but thai
combinations have been formed for the pur-
pose Of resisting them, and individuals oi
influence and notoriety have been aiding and
Abctting in such combinations, then must
you lind bills for constructive treason" &c
