MINIS HAfioN.-The position Of Judge Doug
las on the Kansas question is now fully and an
/ ihoTlatvely defined. We had hoped to the very
moment when, in the Introductory portion 81
bis late speech, he remarked that the President
had fallen into fundamental error" in his con.
struction Of the Kansas Nebraska act that
Jadge Douglas would not feel himself constrain-
ed to take An aatagonistic position towards the
Administration. Nhen that emphatic announce
merit. however, was made, he ceased to have
further hope. The fact is now fixed that on the
Issue which involves the prompt admission Of
tie Territory Of Kansas as 2 State, and the con
seGuent early settlement Of the Slavery question
as subject of national disturbance, the Admin
istration Is 30 have the determined and active
opposition Of Judge Douglas. Il is needless to
say that We regret the determination to which
his mind has arrived; we regret it for various
reasons which will occur 20 every Democrat
without any suggestions from us. In this issue
We think the Administration holds the side of
rirhs and principle, and in this conviction w e
are strengthened rather than weakened byJudge

ing for his wife, and in threatening, a
bout one o'clock at night Bowes got an
AK and went to the door of Murray's
room and made some attempts to get in.

but he avoided the blow, and caught a
club and while he and Bowes were
lighting, Timothy Murray got the gun
and shot Bowes through the neck, kill
ing him instantly. The ball passed thro
the back of his neck, breaking the upper
part of the spine. Friday an inquest
