From Kansas.

Sr. Louis, Dec. To- The Democrat re-
ceiyed Kansas letters Tonight containing
the proceedings of the delegate convention
which met at Lawrence ON the I'd inst,
Ex-Governor Charles Robinson presiding.
Resolutions were unanimously adopted
repudiat!ng and pledging ceaseless hostility
TO the Lecompton Constitution, denouncing
the call for elections on the 21st inst and
the lst prox. declaring that the Legisla-
ture elected on October 9Th shall not be
suspended by any constitution or State gov
ernment until fair and impartial vote be
had endorsing the Topeka Constitution;
requesting the extra session of the Terrific
rial Legislature to frame an election law
providing for the submission of the Topeka
and Lecompton CONSTITUTIONAL one re-
ceiving the majority of legal votes to become
the fundamental law of the State of Kansas
"A resolution was also passed returning
thanks to Acting Governor Stanton for
calling a special session of The Legislature.
Speeches were made by Messrs. Robinson,
Lane, Thatchers and others.
ST. LOUIS, Dec IA special session
of the Kansas Legislature organized on the
9Th. Acting Governor Stanton's message
says" i'll consequence of recent events,
find myself compelled by sense of duty
to call you together, that you may adopt
prompt Legislative measures to avert the
calamities which threatenthe public peace"
Stanton recommends the passage of an
act directing that an election be held under
different officers on the same day and at
the same places, provided proclamation
be issued by the president of the Oonven-
tion authorizing the people to vote for a
constitution in either of the forms present,
ed by the Convention, and also against the
constitution in both forms.
The Governor also recommended the
passage of a law making fraudulent returns
OF votes, felony, with suitable punishment.
Intense excitement prevails throughout the
Territory, and it is probable that the par
ties opposed to the Lecompton Convention
will not permit the election. Lane, with
300 men, was encamped near Lecompton,
and threatens to drive the Calhoun mem
bers of the Convention out of the Territory.
No outbreak has as vet, occurred

q III Me midst of Mfe ,ue a,e i, death p

DEPARTED this life, near Gainesville, Ga, on
Friday the 18th instant, Mrs. BELLE VANpIvEn.
after short illness:
'Early, bright, transient chastc rs morning dew.
She sparkled was cxhaled, and went to Heaven. y
DIED, at his residence, in Anderson district
on the lst Noy. last, Mr. JAMES JOHNSON. in
the 3Ith year of his age Brother johnson, in
1849, joined the Methodist Episcopal Church
South, and from that time till the day of his
death he was regarded as consistent member
of the same-faithful in his attendance and lib
eral in support of the gospel Brother Johnson
was taken sick soon after his return from the
pickensyille camp meeting, and, although he
had the attention of one of the most experienced
physicians in the district, and his wife, as nm
angel of mercy, attended at his bed side by day
and by night His neighbors, too showed their
strong attachment which they bore to himself
and family by their devoted attention to him.
Ietit was evident that he was constantly sink
ing When first visited him, he was in n hap
Ply frame of mind. He requested me to have
prayer, and, when we commenced singing the
praise of God his countcnance showed that his
soul was happy. visited him the next day and
found him still calm and peaceful. After this,
late one night he expressed desire to see the
minister who received him into the church. On
the minister's arrival, he appeared much graft
hod. Although enfeebled by sickness, he con-
his hopes and prospects. While thus engaged
his soul was happy-hc tried to shout, but his
voice and strength failed. lie then pressed the
minister to his form, and reluctantly released
him. He then affectionately embraced his wife
consclng himself with the belief that if he could
not remain with her and their children, they at
least could come to him. 1t was observed that
If, in his restless moments, those around him
would sing, he Appeared to forgot his misery,
and commune more deeply with his God; and
in this frame of mind he continued till speech
failed him. He continued to give signs of his
faith in God to the last. Brother johnson has
left wife and two children, with relatives and
friends, TO mourn their loss; but their loss is
his eternal gain.
Now let the poor, the oppressed, the slave,
Bear my lov'd relics to thegr
And by this deed to all make known
They mourn friend, patron gone
There let the social band appear
And weep a moment round my bier,
Then wipe their eyes and joyful cry,
Our brotherl lives above the sky. FRIEND.
DIED, in Cherokee county, Ga, on the 9th in
slant, WILLIAM Conn, in the 74th year of his
age. He had formerly resided, for many years,
in Pickens district; and having lived pious
life, he died in the full hopeof better world.
