N the Convention, which The Union sOundly exalts
over, are aphed by the Democratic Admlni'tra-
ion. the Kansas difficulty is only beginning.
The Union mpudently dec Tres that the schedule
nut forth by the LecomptOn Convention submits
1.-the Constitution to the white inhabitants OF Kan
"sas; acknowledges the people OF the new State 10
"be the only tribunal that can rghduly determine

"part,' ia to be made 10 believe and to swear that
tbe Constitution is submitted 10 the people OF Kau
sas, when in reality nothing is submitted but a
clause about Slavery, which, as The Union pro-
cs e6s 10 show, Is Of no consequence whatever III

This IA an excellent specimen of The Unions
peculiar middle whenever it undertakes to talk
about Slavery. Shall it be swept out OF existence
at q blow, without regard to the sacred rights OF
property Enquiries the Organl or shall 1t be grad
uaIE extingushed "The Kansas Convention has
decided IN favor of the former course" That Is,
Il has decided 10 act without regard to the sacred
riphts of property, and The Union apparently ap-
pr,yes. Poss,bly The Union meant latter when IL
ss;d for7ueT-n which case it puts itself IN the d.
lemma of approving to-day in Kansas what yester-
day il denounced in the Northern States which nave
abolished Slavery. Yesterday Ihe On'on SAID
that the abolition Of Slavery in New-York,
Jersey aud Pennsylvania wasa gross outrage.
"a gross violation of the rights OF property"
Depsrtigr for q moment from It's argumontatlve
and historical course The Union resumes the Jubl-
lant and triumphant tone, and after heartily con-
gratulatlng the Administration on the auSpclous
event" .hters with accelerated force ON gi0rlhed

formed in terms of appreciation from the same high
authority that Kansas has very properly taKen the
same course as was taken by Ne@-York New-Jer-
sew. PENNSYLVANIA "snd has resolved TO deal with it
las all the other States in the Union dealt with it
"thst il, abolish it prOspectivey." This last Item
of historical Information may well ast0nlsh the
nation. Can II be possible that all the Oher States
in the Union have abolished Slavery p10speohvey,
