Kansas by the forcible expulsion of the anti
slavery settlers by the United States army and
the bo41o rufians, is q revolutionary and fearful
president. 1t sets up the Executive above the
constitution, the laws and public opinion-it
makes him Territorial dictator and clothes him
with the powers of an absolute despot It is
mockery of popular sovereignty, an outrage upon
justice, and a crime which can only lead to a
most disastrous reaction. We warn the South
that this experiment of securing Kansas as
slave State by the agencies of fire and sword,
will do no good. The Territory may thus be
cleared of anti-slayery squatters; but the ques-
ton of the admission of Kansas into the Union
will have to be settled by different process
The military despotism, the military coup dtta
which the little man, Mr.. Pierce, is thus attempt
ing in behalf of Mr.. Buchanan in the South,
should be resisted by the House, if necessary, to
the last day of the constitutional existence of
this Congress. Better have no army than to per-
NIT the Executive, with the army, to override the
constitution and the laws

THE CONTEST oS THE ARMY Bill N PREsT-
DENTAL ynw.-The contest between the Senate
and the House upon the Army bill In q Presi-
dental view, is decidedly soctional-the Senate
working for the South and Buchanan in that sec
ton. ana The North for Fremont in the North
In this aspect. the North have nothing to lose,
hut every thing to gain. Wy making the Army
hll proviso the test question in this canvass. II
the Senate insist let the bill BE- lost rather than
lose that proviso: because while Fremont has
nothing TO expect from the south in the election
anything that will strengthen him in the North il
20 much clear gain. Therefore If The Senate
insist let the House accept the issue. aud let the
Army bill fail, rather than drop that proyiso;
and we shall soon see that The democracy have
been playing with two-edgcd sword and that
the sharper edge is against them. Let the HJuse

Both houses Of Congress yesterday voted to
adhere to their respective positions relative to
The Army bill. Parliamentary expedients are nov
exhausted, and so far as that particular measure
is concerned the door is shut against all further
action on the part of either branch. There are,
however, several propositions for an adjustment
under consideration. Mr.. Campbell OF Ohio, and Mr..
Haven, of New York have plans, which will
probably be brought forward on Monday. Our tele-
graphic despatch gives an inkling of these PROPOSE
TONS Mr.. Clayton introduced resolution provid-
ing for the appointment OF joint select committee
of seven Senators and eleven Representatives to
take into consideration the dsagreeing votes Of the
two houses, with the view of arranging the details
and settling the differences between them. He be-
lieved his proposition could be made acceptable to
all parties. The resolution, which strongly op
posed by Mr.. Seward, will come up Monday. In the
House Mr.. Campbell gave notice that be would shortly
