affair of kansa5 would have been settled
long before now. lie nigh, have said too,
that the affair Of the Democratic party
would have been sttiiid at the same time
II Government had done what lac rcbukes ii
inr not having done, Kansas would now be
consigned 70 slaycry--a settlement most
anxiously desired by the party Represented
by Mr.. Samucls. II seems To us that Pierce

extreme measures, that tho whole North

officers and judicial miniors al Government

murdered men was love II freedo,n--
safety Of their murderer, love Of slavery.
With regard Ia slavery IN the Tcrlitorics
my views are That IL Is the exclusive right,
the privilege, the province nf the people ii
the Territory, to determine for themsclvr.
whether slavery shall or slall not exist il,
