some of our weak brethren and cajole more; you
may even prolong the legalized supremacy of Pro-
Slavery fraud aud usurpation in Kansas, but her
heart will still beat true to Freedom, and her
institutions will be based on the rock of Eternal
Truth-on the equal and unaenable Rights of Man.
And il is not as you pretend the influence Of Climate
but of Conscience that is making Kansas a Free
State for her climate is substantially that of Mis-
souri, and of Western and Mountain Maryland and
Virginia. IL was Conscience, not Climate, that
abolished Slavery in New.YOrk. Our Jay and
Tompkins did not condemn Slavery primarily az I'M

that maintains Slavery in Russia long after it has
disappeared from Western and Southern Europe,
