AZ INTERESTING LETTER FROM KANSAS:
Ron til. Montgomery (4Is) Ad9asi'.r.


TIE election for members OF IRE legislative
Assembly Of this Territory will be held on the
frat Monday Of next October. Toe complexion
OF that Legislature Will in ell probability, deter
mine whether Kansas i5 destined 20 be free or
slave State. aud whether abolition fsuaticsm shall
heucsforward tFsmple IN the dust the constitu-
ton of the Union. Ths. Ffeesoh aggression on
the rights OF the slave States must he speedily sr
rested, OF tie Union dissolved is too plain to be
reasonably questioned.
Many Of our most intelligent citzsns believe
that if Kansas should become free State, Nilsson.
ri, gsrrisonsd on three sides by free States, must
ere long succu NIB 20 the confined Rggressions Of
freesoiism, aud abolish slavery. 10 that event.
the institution would be greatly weakened 10 Ar

Bot should Kansas become 8 slave State, the
South will still, and probably for many years to
come, have the means Of seiflrottctlon 10 their
own hands.
As yet, the pro slavery party are largely in the
ascendant, but desperate tfJsis are being made
By Emgrant Aid Societies 10 rev rze this state of
! things aud Ootain FTeesoi majority before the
next election. The South are imperiOusly called
upon by every dictate Of patriotism and eulight-

they can readily do, and perpstuaJe the ascsnden-
