A CANDID ADMISSION.

Mr.. A. j. Greer, the editor of black-rcpubcan
paper published in Jnniata county, Pennsylvania in
taking leave of his party and paper, says;
sThe republican party under It's present constituted
leaders, is the mcanest party with which had
anything to do Without prudence discretion, il
rshes mady into extremes and renders itself obnoxious
TO all liberal minded people"

The other question Of controversy, chom shall the
constitution J submitted for ratification in it shall he de-
ccd to subject 10 the popular ordeal Is equally within
the absolute control of .'the Territory Of Kansas.
Here too must say for ourselves that we are will
ling TO abide the decision Of the Territory not 1t may
be- from choice butfrom compulsion. Wcn Virginia have
no right consistently with the provisions of the Kansas
Nebraska act and with the repeated pledges of tho South
to interfere with the people of Kansas in deciding this
question ''in their way
We would remark, however that on this question, as
the other the precedents various. In Virginia
have had two opposite preccdcnts for while the con-
stituton Of 1880 submitted 10 the voters who
qualified to vote for the members of the constitutional
convention the constitution Of 1850 submitted to
the voters who should be qualified under the terms of the
new constitution itself We take il for granted that this
will be the precise question in the Kansas convention,
viz whether the voters upon the constitution shall
be those who qualified 10 vote for members Of the
convention who shall he qualified TO vote under the
provisions prescribed in the constitution the convention
will frame The legislation Of Congress has left the de-
sion with the convention and the people Of the other
