The resolution of THE national Demo-
cratic party at Cincinnati solemnly guar
anteed to 4 aa1;oriM of lie actual resi-
deats" the right 70 aeternine what ehall
BIZ tile organic law Rf kansas.
Mr.. Buchanan expressly instructs
Gey. Walker tp employ all the authority
with which He is aclothed to prevent
foreign interference from any quarter
The Administrator, resolved to carry
out the pledges of the state rights and
national Democracy, declare that a con
~yention elected by swo thousand out q
ten thousand voters should not thrust
their Constitution apon the majority, !
THAT majority desire to have the Consti'
tuition submitted fir their approval ol
disapproyal. Thissis an abstract right,
which a majority ofthe people ofKansas
claim, and which itfseems the enemies d
Walker deny. If III is not denied nj So
many words, Walker is al least denoun,
ced for insisting ihat the people of Kan
sas shall be allowed to adopt or reject
their own Constitution. II strikes us as
e exceedingly incosisaent, that those who

TffMr. Buchanan, .ii his instructions %

Two members Of His Cabinet We have
always regarded as true as steel to the
