The Convention in Kansas.

A Kansas correspondent of tn,
New York Journal of Commerce il
letter dated the 18th OF June
writes:
"There is little doubt that tbt
Convention will frame Constitution
in which the subject of slavery vii
not be referred to: and, in submitting
it to the actual settlers Of Kansas
and none but the actual settlers, sub
NIT distinct clause, in addition, to
be or not to be incorporated in the
instrument, providing for the recogni-
ton, OF not, of slavery, in the new
State"
Another Washington correspon-
dent concludes letter upon the
present state Of things in Kansas,
with the following:
THE course Of things, then, will be
this: The Convention will submit
the instrument to Congress, and that
body will approve it, subject TO the
appreciation of the inhabitants Of the
Territory, the popular will to be as
certained in some mode which Con-
gress will itself prescribe"

Sectionalism at The South.


The New ORLEANS Bulletin says, that.
@the St Louis InteIligencer, a con-
sentative and national journal, in an
article with the above caption asks"
"What is the difference between
Northern and Southern sectionalism?
Is not one odious, illiberal, and mar
row minded as the othcr?''
Let us admit, for argument sake.
that secttonakism does exist at the
South, even to an ertreme as is as
Iserted-will the Bulletin tell us some
thing of the origin Of ills sectional.
ism what caused and what keeps
up that feeling Of hostility to the
North of which complaint is made; and
what makes the South jealous Of her
rights, IN the determined maintenance
|
OF which our people are so apt to ex-
press themselves boldly, nay yehe-
mently, aud often Extensively to. the
North?
But this is net all Will any one
take the trouble to tell Us in what
Northern seciionalism consists, and in
what Southern? Let US not indulge
here in distractions! The emily sec
tional discord that prevails between
North and South, is caused by the
abolition war upon slavery at the
South. And but for that gross out
rage upon Southern Rights, we should
hear nothing ofSouthern extremists,or
even of Southern sectionaIism. When,
therefore, we see such articles in our
Southern presses as the foregoing, We
cannot but deem them unwise, indeed
as not representing family the South.
A northern eTtTemSt,is an abolitionist.
a disunionist, traitor to the constitu-
ton, and a thief, for be would, not
having the shadow of a claim thereto,
take from a Southern man his lawful
property. The Southern extremist
is made one because Of these assaults
of the abolitionists upon the constitu-
ton, upon the rights of the State and
his individual property. Is th, re no
difference between the two? Must
they, by Southern Editors, be put
in the same Chain gang, and subjected
to the same Remuneration and pun
liSbment? Although we are no friend
of disunionists, we trust not, and hence,
we hope, wheu the Southern ertrem-
ist is referred to by the Southern
Press, he may not be classed with the
rascally abolitionist who has caused
the enlargement that exists between
the two sections Of our common coun.
/ try.

A RUNAWAY RIVERA DESERTED
TowN.-The Nehraskian of the LIST in
slant describes fragrant outrage up.
on "squatter sovereignty" as having
been lately perpetrated by the Mis-.
souri, river, in the vicinity of De Soto,
Washington county, in that territory.
The ice gorged in the bend of the riy-
Ter few miles above that town. and
the water, with criminal disregard of
the rights of De Soto and her ferry
privileges, took a short cut across the
bend, forcing a channel near Calhoun,
Iowa, and making De Soto an island
town of Nebraska. some four or five
miles from the river, to the infinite
disgust of the inhabitants of that
city. BY the arrangement a few
thousand acres of land will be added
to the already extensive domains of
Nebraska.

the high priest the company consists
lof 4O3 adults and children over s

A lesser saint named Cal A. Christian
