LATER.
WASHINGTON, Nov ~.
Gov. Walker has had another interview
with the President on the subject of Kan
sas affairs, and they also to-day occupied
a large share of the Cabinet deliber-
atoms.
At the cabinet meeting to-day, the Pres
ident stated Gov Walkers position on
Kansas affairs. The cabinet unanimously
unite with the President in favor of sus-
tanning the action of the constitutional con
vention with reference to submitting the
constitution to the people, and SO condemn
Walker. The door to reconciliation
with Gov. Walkers position is now
closed, and bitter contest between the
two wings of the Democracy is unavoid-
able.
Senator Douglas has been heard from.
AS the author ofthe Kansas Nebraska Act,
he will take bold ground in support of
Walker. This the President has not hith
erto believed. Douglas holds that the re-
frsal to submit the whole constitution to
the people, when they desire it. is the clear
est reputation of the doctrine of popular
sovereignty.

EE The Shamocratic papers in this re-
gion publish extracts from the more mod
crate portion Of the Southern press in re-
lation to Gov. Walkers course in regard
TO the Oxford and I.cGec county frauds,
as indicative of public sentiment in that
quarter in regard to the matter. They
know better. The truth is, nine out of ten
Of the Southern papers denounce Walker
IN the most furious terms for rejecting the
returns from the above named places.
All at once the bogus sheets, in this
State, have become extremely boisterous in
favor of honesty, and condemn in the loud
est terms, the Oxford and McGse frauds
They remind one of an old cyprian abusing
young female who has been caught in the
libertine's snare. Very few of them, how
ever, have, as yet, venturei to express any
disapprobation Of the action OF the bogus
constitutional Convention of Kansas, in
refusing to submit its vile spawn to the
people of the territory for approval or re-
lection; or, of the coup dtat, establishing
provisional government, with Calhoun for
Governor, for the purpose of destroying
tn, effect of the recent Republican victory
in Kansas

is so refreshing to see one on the Democrat
ic side, in Indiana, asserting his manhood,
that we cannot refrain from aforling our
readers an opportunity to rejoice with our
self:
''For our own part" says the Times
"and we are glad to see many of the lead
ing Democratic Journals, north and south
occupy the same position, we shall not re-
cognise the Constitution made by the Con.
vention or any other that may be made
hereafter by any body of men, as the Con-
stitution of Kansas, until it has heen rati-
fiod by majority vote of the people of
Kansas, and we will add to the remark of
Mr. Forney, who said that any other posi-
ton would be the lend of any man. who

ban, As there seems to be some indication
that he will.
1--WE regard the attempt on the part of
the Kansas Convention to force a consti-
tuition upon the people. even though they
do submit the slavery clause to a popular
vote; as direct usurpation of power, and
the committal of fraud, reasonable III
design and in effect. 1.-The Just powers OF
the Government are derived from the con

Is controverted. every attempt to muzzlt
