rsees in Kan.as were the work Of their partlsans
from Missouri and other Southern States; but
these would have long since ceased but for the d.

They complain not that the Government does not

The bred Scott decision is q fresh and perfectly
wanton insult TO the Free States. Soconrcious were
is authors Of this fact that they did not venture to
pronounce it in prospect of Presidential Elec'

1856, but the political portents were so thresteniog

That decision strips whole race, whether bond or
free, of the noblest attributes of manhood. Hsys
to them, "You need not aspire, by industry up
rishtness, education and virtue, to be men; for
We have power to decree you brutes, and brutes
you sball remain evermOre." 10 accordance

Court judcially denies the right of Congress or

cluded by their people SO long as they retain their
Territorial condition. Any man who chooses to
take Slaves into Nebraska tomorrow may call on

Fellow citizens be not lulled to sleep There
was never before time when Slavery was making
such giant strides toward universal dominion as
now. On every hand, We see journals that lately,
like The Express, professed to be abstracty hos

or justification of that monstroas wrong that
sophistry can devise. We have }" Democratic
