Buchanan Against Kansas.

In another column, our readers will find an
criticize from the Washington Union, which
possesses peculiar significance at this cri-
sis. 1t seems to indicate that the Geographic
report YVES not mistaken in saying that Pres
ident BUCHANAN approves ofthe action Of the
Pro Slavery conspiI ators against the people
of Kansas. That portion Of the Northern
Democracy who placed trust in the sincerity
of BucHANAN's pledses,-quoted seriatim by
the Pioneer, in its article,-that "the people
of Kansas should be left perfectly free to form
and regulates their own domestic institutions
in their own way" must feel greatly chagrined,
and highly indignant at the Justification of
his sacred honor, given alike to the party and
the people. The prospect ahead is, that
JAMES BUCHANAN will depart from office, as
little respected as Gen. PIERCE and that
the remnant of Northern Democracy left by
the policy Of the latter when he retired from
the Presidential chair, will be quite extermi-
mated under the reign of the Sage of Wheat
