If the Convention should make pro-slavery
constitution, it would be ratified by the
people. This would make another conven-
ton necessary, and at the end of another
year, the free-solers would likely have the
held to themselves. Since the delivery of
the Presidents inaugural, the emigration
from the northern States has been hocking
to Kansas in countless thousands. It has
been even SO great that commercial crisis
is seriously feared, and many individuals
have suspended payment, on account ofthe
withdrawal of capital, by this immense ex-
odus. These will not have votes in June,
but they will have voice in the adoption
OF the labors of the convention Here then,
is the practical operation and result of the
alien suffrage and squatter sovereignty
doctrines of the Southern democracy.
They may disclaim or palliate their squat
ter sovereignty, but it stands out too pal
pably to be eraded The Southern and
trnly national ground is, that the perma
nent citizens of the territories, at the time
they adopt their State constitution, being
citizents of the United States, having the
same qualifications in the election of dele
gates and in the ratification OF their con-
stitution, and none others, shall fix and
shape their own institutions. We now
urge these views upon the attention of
Southern democrats, and ask them how
long they will be blinded by the empty
| declarations of reckless leaders, and forced
by party allegiance, to sanction the deliber-
ate pursuit of schemes, by which the South
is to be virtually and inevitably disfran-
chised in the enjoyment of the territorial
domain of common country? At Leav-
enworth City Mr.. Stanton meets the pro-
slavery democratic leader, s ringfelow-
they embrace as brothers, and Stringfel-
low rises up Immediately and makes
speech, wherein he proclaims the 'frst OBJ
ject to be, to make Kansas slave State,
and, failing in this, strive to make
it, as the next best thing, a demo-
cratic free State" And this "next best
thing" is likely to be the result. AT
ter the territory has been made free, by
the most arrant free-soilers that could be
picked up in all the North, the national
South-loving democracy, turn about and
ask them to become democrats. We have
rarely witnessed establishment equal to
that of the democratic party, in its entire
course in relation to the affairs of Kansas.
We now believe that Kansas will be adj
mtted into the Union as free State, and
that it will have been brought about by
the intrigues, duplicity and hypocrisy of
that party towards the South.

there was no railroad gong to Lawrence. The

MAY 2d.-I arrived in St Louis on Yesterday
morni2g and spent the evening in examining some
Of the many improvements going on in the CITY.
Among the private residences notice one of su-
peror design, and thus far, of finish, belonging to
Mr.. Ben. N RUSYAN, of the firm of Runyan
Himan & Bro. The outer course of brick look as
II theV had received polish, their surface being
nearly as smooth as that Of glass; In the erection
of the house, thus far, Mr.. R. has spared no ex-
pense in its good, complete and substantial con-
structon, determined as be is to have oGe of the
best and most complete residences in the w Sc. His
glass he purchased in France being the finest arti-
Gle have ever seen, and when put up, will reflect
on the outer side. In haste,
