Correspondence Of the Republican.
LEcoMPToN, July 3.
The regular National Democratic conven-
ton representing the several counties OF
this Territory, and regularly by the Cen
tral Committee, assembled at Lecompton,
the seat of Government this day.
II was largely attended, there being alb
sent but thirteen, out of sixty representa-
tive votes.
They passed resolutions excluding al
sectional distinctions, adopting the Cincin
natl platform, and assuming the ltFnsss !he
National Democracy of Kansas, sJ7sbrscli,s
all Democrats, whether from tlts.ss ersP q
the South: They passed resol4b9nS, b$
unanimous vote, pledging their strl'l hnd
cooperation TO Gov. Walker, and enthus-
astic cheers, and nominated SGov. Ransom
as their candidate for delegate TO Congress.
A resolution was presentfd pledging sup
port to the State Constitui6 to be adopted,
even if that instrument shal not be submit
ted TO the people foH rakfcation. After
considerable discuss M ths resolution was
rejected with but on s di8 8enting vote, and
the result was ammo oance5 amid loud cheers.
This coDyention was composed Of large
majority of savery Ihen, but the whole
Democratic party Sf I<as ssas, whether pro-
slavery or free Stas Z. WHY sustain the inaug-
ural address of Gov Waiter, and the sub
mission of the Constitation to the vote of
the people. Under these resolutions Gov.
Ransom will be elected, and the Democrats
will carry the Territorial Legislature.
The Con,titution to be framed in Septem-
Der next, it is now certain, will be submit
ted 10 the whole people, and will be ratified
by large majority. cannot, Of course,
now speak with certainty, but the prevail
ing opinion is that they will adopt Consti
tuition securing the right to the slaves now
in the territory, numbering about two hum
dred; the execution Of the fugitive slave
law, and the appeal in constitutional ques-
tions 10 the Supreme Court Of the United
States; and that at the same time the Con-
sttution is submitted they will also submit
clause for the vote of the whole people
prohibiting or authorizing the introduction
Of slaves ir future. 1t is conceded on all
; hands that large majority of the people
; will vote TO prohibit the future introduction
of slaves into this Territory. They have
also endorsed Gov. Walkers Indian orC
land policy, and will insert it in an ordi
= nance accompanying the Constitution.
1t is probable, also, that they will insis
on the introduction oil the Southwestern In
! dian Territory as a State, and probably Sc
t cure the extension of their northern bUun
dary to the Platte river, with the consent o
Congress.
:, The complete success Of Governo
e Walkers policy, through the hearty coop
t Grafton OF the whole Democratic party 0
n Kansas, whether pro-slavery or lree-Stot
. Democrats, is now certain.
i Just before the Convention closed, an,
= after all the resolutions had been adopted,
S committee was appointed 10 wait on Gov
II ernor Walker and request him TO addres
the Convention, which he did amid the mos
: uproarious cheers-three times three and
/, tiger.
!, II Henceforth you may consider the Kansa
q difficulty as settled on the platform Of Gov
o ernor Walker, sustained by the whole De
= mocracy of Kansas with scarcely dissent
ing voice, and by the whole Democracy

, would now be raging in Kansas, that III

of from the pro-slavery Democracy, and tht
ne Kansas would be brought into the Union
~ u. an out-and-out abolition State.
Governor Ransom fully agrees in the who
or policy Of Governor Walkers address.
