Here, again, have the most disrcputablc motives

compromise measures OF 1850. Nothing Is conceded to
her moderation and conservative love Of the South In
that matter but IL Is nsultngy insinuated that selfish

London Star in speaking Of this establishment says
% The Pequot House, at the mouth Of harbor, is

THE WRIGHT BANQUET.

splendid entertainment was given at Indianapo-
lis, on the 18th inst, to Ex-Governor Wright in an
ticipation of his speedy departure as minister to
Prussia. In the course of his speech, which, as
usual, was well fitted to the popular ear, he remark
ed as follows
g Democrats and republicans, whatever may be our
differences in time to upon national questions do
not neglect the interests OF your State the bitter
fruits OF such neglect in years past beginning
he tasted Do not sink the affairs of home important to
yourselves and your families to the discussion of
empty distinctions and wild theories concerning people
who do not need either your sympathy your aid Time
will settle and settle justly the question upon which you
divided 1t is not difficult to make people
free MS to keep them Watch your own liberties and
educate your offspring to enjoy them and your duty to-
wards mankind is more than half done. Take care of
the institutions of your State Build her up and make
her mighty in wealth. and strong and stout hearts
and happy in the intelligence and integrity of her sons
and the accomplishments, beauty and virtue OF her
daughters"
The Journal of Commerce says that the sentiment
might be cpitomizcd thus "Mind your own business,
and let Kansas take care of itself"
Another paragraph is follows:
~ predict this night, and time will fulfil the prelc
ton, that the administration of James Buchanan will go
down to the future the abest and the popular since
the days of Jackson Combining in his own person the
virtues and the wisdom of the past generation with the
energy and ability of the present Mr. Buchanan cannot
fail not only to extrcate the country from her
difficulties but to conduct her to height of prosperity
and glory from which she may dcscry her mighty destiny
in the future"

THE TWO PARTIES IN KANSAS.

In the course of wel-written article on Kansas
affairs the Providence Post thus speaks of the state
of parties in Kansas "They," the fce-State demo-
Gratis, ''are ralying ne@, side by side, and shoulder
to shoulder, with proslayery democrats in support
of their governor and the Topeka party itself
finds it impossible to make Roadway against them
They can yell, of course as they have constantly
yelled against bogus legislatures and bogus laws
against frauds at the ballot-boxes and frauds every
where--but they cannot prevent the more rational
and reasonable of their friends from joining in
the movement which Gov Walker has inanguratcd
ilenceforth there to be two parties, and only
two, in Kansas the national democratic party--com-
posed of frce-State men and pro-slavery men, who
willing that the people shall determine the charac
ter of their local instutions-and the opposition
party, composed of black republicans from the
North, who want agitation for the sake of its effects
on northern elections and pro-slavery know-noth-
iDgs."

GEN. REUBEN DAVIS.

Speaking of the nomination of this gentleman as
the democratic candidate for Congress in the second
district, the Aberdeen (Miss.) Sunny South says /:
" So far ms we have heard the nomination has been
hailed with great enthusiasm and il is useless 10 spccu
lato MS to the result for that is conceded by all parties
Although each aspant had and jealous friends in
the convention reoiced to know that the conven
tion brought its abors to close amidst great enthusiasm
and harmony

view to making an active campaign 1t is his nten.

sumo he will have no opposition, but il he should he will

framed new constitution, which contained pro
vision that il should be submitted at an election TO
be held for ratification rejection to all white male
persons of the age of wenty-one years or upwards
who shall then be residents of this Territory and
citizens had declared their intention to become
such. Under tl,is constitution Wisconsin was adj
mitted ON the 29th of May, ls4s.
California framed her constitution under the aus
pices of Gen. Riley. II contained provisions on the
subject of submission 70 the people in the following
wordss
This constitution shall be submitted to the people for
their ratification rejection at the general election to he
held ON Tuesday the thirteenth day q November next
Every citizen of California declared legal voter by
this constitution and every citizen of the United States
resident of this State the day Of election shall be
entitled TO vote at the first general election under this
constitution and the question of the adoption there
Of -
The last Congress passed bill authorizing the call
of convention and forming constitution in Mime
sofa, which provides, if the constitution shall deter
mine that the people wish to be admitted they shall
form "a constitution and take all necessary steps for
the establishment of State government, in confor-
nifty with the federal constitution subject 10 The APP
proual and ratification Of the people Of The proposed
State"
Oregon applied for like act, and passed
the House at the last session, but lost for want
Of time in the Senate. This bill provided that
delegates to the convention should be chosen by
the citizens of the United States in Oregon, who
were authorized to proceed to form constitution,
and take all necessary steps for the establish
ment of State government in conformity with
the federal constitution, subject to the approval
and ratification of the citizens of the United States
residing in the proposed State who by this law
legally qualified to vote at the election of delegates
With this evidence before of the views of Con-
gress upon the propriety and necessity of submitting
constitution to the people we think no one will
doubt that the administration had strong reasonsfor
anticipating that it would be done in Kansas, and
were, therefore, wise and prudent in providing for
the protection of the people when passing upon it,
