Whatever the Fro Slavery men may be else

here They regard the question OF Slavery IN Nan
sas IA So nearly fixed, that Free. Solsm, even IN
IL, abstract is nothing short of rebellion They
have Just elected Delegates TO attend the Pro-
Slavery Convention at LecOmptOn on the second
Monday of next month. l think they do not relish
the dismissal Of LecOmpte and the other Changes
made about this tune. True, the admission OF
Whitfield il more than enough to cOun.erbalance

into n Ere. one They we'll know that they are
largely in the minority in the Territory. Hitherto
they have not cared for this, since, according TO
their peculiar mode OF procedure, this was a mat
Ter of no consequence; but such mode Ol manag'
ins won't do forever. There is s.rOng desire TO
fralernze and assmilate with the more cool aud
eonseI yatiye Of the FreeState men; for consefya-
tive men are generally tmid, and II hansas was

The people are used TO it; besides, 1t has grown

But Il Free-State party as party why, IL IL dah-

Territory from being thoroughly quoted, accord

There are two of the Law and Order organs

There is still great deal of hutterng about the

valuable property rented il for year TO a man
Who had, in turn, sub let - another. When some
