PRINCIPLES, as practically applied to the Ter
rit"ry oi Kansas. have been Reimbursed BY
the American Democracy and bv their
nominee could not be unfaithful to the
man without treachery to the principles he
represents.
We have reached the turning point in
the experiment Of the people TO govern
themselves. Ours is yet n youthful Repub-

to ties: the machinery of our government ::
but the pcrilS. Of the ocean OF uncertainty
are now to bc encountered, and every man
and every timber of the Ship of State will
be subjected to the scvcrcst proof. Let us
do our duty to the Constitution and the
country, in an earnest and concerted effort
with the law-abidng and conservative men
OF every State, in driving off the piratical
crew of Black RcpuLlcanism who hover
around us, with the cmblems of death at
their mast head and rule or ruin for their
motto.
The high moral duty Of forbcarance, when
fortified by a consciousness of having, rs
far as is consistent with honor, avoided the
necessity Of collision, will steel the arm of
amy man, with a soul in his body, to strike
against every odds in resistance of insult
or oppression. To this condition of mind
hope to see brought every man in the
South who is capable of bearing arms. If,
with the aid of the patriotic Democracy of
the North-a Democracy Which is honorcd

Pierce, OF New Hampshire, Douglas, of H.

issue OF disnnion may be avoided, I will
praise God forit; but, after doing our whole
duty, if the issue of blood must come, why
then VIC will bc prepared to meet it, and
I'll thank God for that.
We have friends throughout the entire
North who are true TO lis. Good and true
men are confined to no one region, and
not only the political fortunes Of such arc
embarked in this contest, but in many in
stances their social position and pecuniarv

therein. "

NAsHINGToN, June 3O.-The Kansas
investigating Committee made a volumin
Gus report to-day. Their conclusions arc
that each Of the elections in Kansas
was carried by invasion from Missouri, that
the Legislative Assembly is illegally con
stitutcd, and therefore has no power to
pass validlaws, and its enactmcnts are there
fore void. The election of Whitfield was
not held under any valid law, and the cleo
ton of Reedcr wassfiot in accordance with
law. The Committee suggested no remedy.
The report is signed by Messrs. Howard
