WE expressed the opinion few days
since that the recent election in Kansas
would not determine the question free
dom or slavery in that future State, nor
necessarily exercise very powerful in
tiuence in that direction. For the rea-
son that the convention which makes its
Constitution, and possesses the power
to submit it to the people, or not to sub
NIT it at all, is intensely pro-slavery, and
entirely independent of the late election
or its results. The Administration, the
Supreme Court and in short the whole
power of the nation is on the side ofthe
pro-slavery convention. The doctrine
is already substantially promulgated by
the Court and the Administration that
there IS no power with the people to in
terfere at all with the right to hold slaves
and it strikes Us it is expecting a great
deal under the circumstance to expect
thatthe convention either will not or can
not pursue its pleasure and proclivities
in this respect in perfecting a constitu-
ton for the State. In confirmation of
our opinion, we give the following ex-
tract of letter from Kansas to the
Charleston AsctUy:
Look at the position of the Consti-
tutional Convention. | am a member
of that body, and speak only what |
know, when | say that the Concenti0n
tciH adopt, unanimously, Il Constitution
recognizing and protecting Slacery, and
that, IL tie Constitution Is submitted for
ratification at al 1t ,cM be rotifed-
There are sixty members in the Conven-
ton, and though there are some differ
enees Of opinion as to the policy Of sub
hitting the Constitution TO the people,
| am happy to say that, on the question
OF slavery, there is perfect unanimity,
and there are twenty-five of us who viii
never consent TO submit it at all The
! Convention adjourned until the 81 Mon
day IN October, and when we meet again
confidently believe that the twenty-five
who are opposed to submission viii be
Joined by large majority OF the whole
number
''Does this look, Messrs. Editors. like
giving up the fight? No. All we wish is
the countenance and support of the
South"
We are not,in the habit of attaching
any great Importance to the eorrespon-
dence and opinions, with which news
papers arefooded, Kansas, on either
side of the question. But this is little
different from the usual character of
newspaper correspondence. 1t comes
from a seeming authority and is entitled
to weight, and hence We give it.
We call the attention of our readers
to this to impress upon them that this is
a national not local matter. The fate
OF Kansas is not.in the hands of her peo-
