How it could ever have been serious
ly doubted is mystery
The position of the Democratic party Is
now clear. Having settled the question
that Slavery legally exists IN all the ter
ritories of the United States, that the peo-
pie of a territory or Congress have no
right to prohibit ii until State ConStltu-
ton is formed, the party by lis own Con-
struction of principles Is committed 10 the
defense of the institution. If previously
there was any room to doubt that the De-
mocratic party and The South were a unit
on this question of slavery extension, Mr..
Ruchanan has now effectually decided the
controversy. Ia doing so, however, he
has misrepresented facts, outraged the
principles of popular sovereignty by srs-
tanning q fraudulently elected Legislature,
and by denying the right of people to
to exclude slavery from their soil until
State Government is formed, become the
avowed champion of the Border RutfianS,
and proclaimed to the people of Kansas
that they must submit to a Constitution
formed 10y one-tenth part of the people, if
the voters as defined by that Constitution
so decide.
The reply of Mr.. Buchanan is a sud
led insult to the free sentiments of the
North, and however fair his words the de-
termination is apparent to place the whole
power of the government at the disposal
of the fire eaters in their unremitting eff
forts 10 make Kansas a slave State.

Kansas ard Mr.. Buchanan.

1t is lluniliating to human pride, that
even Democratic Editors resort to evasion,
misrepresentation and falsehood IN speak
ing of eTents in any way connected with
parry interests. And how much more
deplorable is il that the President of the
United States should descend from his
high position 10 present a garbled and
VIGOROUSLY incorrect statement Of the con-
dition Of affairs in Kansas. Now it cam
not be denied that all the main facts set
forth by the Republican press liz last falls
campaign were true, and have since been
established by the additional testimony OF
Gov. Geary and of his private Secretary,
both OF them friends of Mr.. Buchanan
But these facts are concealed from the
readers of the Democratic press, or are
distorted 10 suit party purposes.
Mr.. Buchanan, it seems has found oc-
oasion to reply to the memorial of some of
the most distinguished citizens of New
England in relation to Kansas matters,
IN which reply he Justifies himself for his
attempt to force institutions upon the peo-
pie OF kansas, 10y misrepresentation of
well known facts. For instance he says

over the accession of John Bracken to
to the ranks of Barstow, pro-slavery De-
mocracy. Mr.. Bracken, unlike many of
the party to which he has united himself,
has one virtue which they have not F.; that
is consistency. He has always been pro-
slavery in sentiment, voted the Know
Nothing ticket last Fall, and has not we
presume, changed his sentiments. He
has stood still and the great Democratic
party has come around to him. At least,

It is not often or without cause that
Democratic newspaper bolt nomination.
With them generally the party must be
sustained, right or wrong. We observe
that several papers support ticket like
the above, and probably do so advisedIy !;
and it is a matter of profound thankfulness
that there is yet independence sufficient
left with portion of the party to enable
thea TO throw off The party shackles,
when they would fasten them to an odious
platform, or to corrupt associations. The
people Will certainly understand, even
should the refractory be whipped into the
traces as we think they will soon be, that
men whom the honest portion of party
cannot trust, are not worthy the confidence
of the people.
1t is fact not admitting of denial that
BarStow and his friends rejoice over the
manner in which they controlled the con-
ventlon.

Probably no convention ever before as
sembled IN this State which combined so
much talent, or whose proceedings were
characterized with so much harmony and
enthusiasm. The ticket nominated Is the

to the people of this State, and if the same
spirit continues 10 aCtuate the party
throughout the campaign which was evinc-
ed In the convention, the nominations will
be ratified in November next by the

We run up TO our masthead to-day the
ticket, comprising the men whom The Re-
publicans Of Wisconsin have selected, 10
fill the various State offices for the next
two years.
1t has rarely been our fortune to pre-
sent ticket, taken all in all, that suits
us better than this one does. We might
have desired the nomination of one or
two other men for the offices - but the
voice of the people said otherwise, and
we are not only content but proud, that
the honor has fallen upon good and true
men, bod e Co. CitIzen.
We have now our ticket. As we asked
so have we received good men and true
for our leaders = all worthy of our entire
and hearty support. Now the duty is ours
TO elect them, and not only that, but give
them such a majority as shall rebound to
the everlasting credit of Wisconsin. Re-
publicanism expects every man to do his
