THE NORTHERN DEMOCRATIC PRESS ON THE

northern democratic press on the Kansas question:

Journals of the South such as the Richmond Enquirer
Memphis Appeal &c, &C., manfuy sustaining Gov.
ernor Walkers recommendation OF submission 10 the
people of the Kansas constitution.
Our opponents in the free States all through the late
bitter and exciting presidential contest charged that the
friends Of the Nebraska bill urging scheme
force slavery Kansas, contrary to the sentiments
majority of its ride citizens and that hence the real
question wns whether Kansas should he free or slave
State The democratic press of the North repealed this
charge and denied in unqualified terms that such was
the issue We contended that the question was whether
the actual settlers of Kansas should be allowed decide
the question for themselves to whether they would
have their State slave free perfectly free TO form and
regulate their domestic institutions IN hCT uay and
that this the great principle which the whole demo
cratic party North South East and West standing
and would continue stand This all done in good
fih and faithful application of this principle is what
we contend for still-what Governor Walker and Presi
dent Buchanan contend for IL neither Congress nor
the outside interference from other States who a.
pointed by settle this question of sovereignty but
the fair and full expression of the bona ie residents of
question is by vote of the people qer the constitution
shall have been formed by the convention which will AS.

" Such principle this faithfully carried out cannot
fail to give peace to the nation and such result will
be death-sroke to black ropubcinism in the northern
States Then when Kansas is at the door Of Congress

it be free State slave State entirely silent on the

CORN TRADE BETWEEN FRANCE AND EGYPT

: UUKN TRADE DEL W EFIN FNANOTI AND EN 1T.
The Courier des Efats Uus informs us that an as
ISOLATION has been formed in France, with capital
of 900 900 francs, having for its object the direct
importation from Egypt of wheat corn, cereals, ali
mentary pastes, &c. Since the reduction of duties
on these articles, large supplies have been derived
from the United States, chiefly in American bottoms.
What may be the effect of this new movement on our
grain trade with France remains to be seen though
but little good has ever been accomplished by
moneyed monopoes
