The Board of Councmen are not quite ready for
armed revolt against the State; they cannot even
support the grandiloquent resolutions for calling
City Convention proposed in the other Board by
Brigadier- General Wilson. Last night these re-
solves came into the Council Board, and the Alder
man Of the First came with them, to push them
through. He was unsuccessful, however, and the
papers were referred toa Committee the chairman
of which made strong speech against them. If
the Mayor wants City Convention he can get it
up on his own accounts the Common Council will
none of it.

We have all along felt confident that the Free
State men of Kansas understood their own position
better than outsiders coudunderstand it, and that
their course in the presentersis had been wisely
calculated and would be firmly persisted in. Here
and there individuals mayfall away-for large
party is more liable chipping off at the edges than
small one-but the heart sound and true.
When it was first announced that the Free State
men had decided not to voteat the bogus Constitu-
tiOnal Election, general cs was raised by their
enemies and few hafheared or mistaken friends
that they were giving up thecontest and surrender
ing Kansas to Slavery Weknew better, and most
Of those who joined in the clamor knew better.
The fact is that stutng balcboxes Is Just the one
only game at which the Fee-State men cannot
match the RCrder- Rufians, especially when the
after have exclusive controof the registry, polls
and canvass, and therefore the Free-State men
refused TO play: and in doing so have won. There

from Lecompton under date OF the llth INST, as

To show how little the Mayor and bis friends
expected to depend upon the unconsttutionality Of
the Police Law and how much upon the force of
party pressure, we will state fact not before
made public. Previous to the sitting of the Courts
for May, an extraordinary effort was made to dis
tribute the Judges of the Supreme Court, for the
Oyer and Terminer, Circuit and General Terms, so
as to be sure of strong Democratic majority in
the General Term. The plan failed, however, by
the refusal of high officer to accede to any such
arrangement.

Much curiosity was manifested yesterday to
know what the Mayors dodge will be to eyade
the decision of the Supreme Court. He had long
consultations with his friends, but kept very close
himself, bis only act looking as if caused by the
decision, being the calling together of the Aldermen
for this evening. His Honor is up to his chin in
the musty sections of the Dongan Charter, and will
probably remain there for some time in search of
the beadles and "cbares" of the good old times.
