The anti slavery politicians in Kansas and the blackre
publican organs and orators outside OF Kansas from the
adjournment of the ecompton convention down to this
day have necessarily kept up their cry of alarm that the
admission Kansas under the ecompton constitution
will c the signal for bloody civil This idea was
prominent feature Of the opening speech of Mr. Senator
Douglas against the annual message of the President and
other opposition Senators have improved upon the hint
by denouncng the bill for the increase of the army
nothing than call upon Congress for the necessary
force reduce the people of Kansas to submission the
Iecompton programme at the point of the bsyo,fet
But If there should be any trembling northern demo
crat in Congress otherwise disposed TO support the Lc
compton constitution but who shrnks in view of the
tngcnics of border and general revolutionary
action throughout the North, commend to his special
attention the calm and dispassionate intelligence from
special Kansas correspondent published in yesterday
Herald Our correspondent says that peace in way
depends upon the fact of the adoption of the Lc
compton constitution for II the free State have The
power under that constitution they will be quiet if not
satisfied But he also says that f there is tie in the
Legislature there will be looping off of heads assassna
ton because ''the JeeStatc must have the rule

The proceedings of the late territorial legislature the

ny upon this point Their iointstock speculation for q
new State capital at floating site called Minneola their
three four bank bills and various other spos and
plumber measures prove very satisfactorily that the Kan

nothing than the ragged old cloak under whici,

NEW YORK, July La.
The Steamship Austria arrived early
this morning from Hamburg via South
ampton. She brings London papers CT
July 4th, and has also 400 passengers.
She reports heavy westerly gales and
fog the entire passage. Saw nothing of
the telegraph feet.
A despatch from Washington says a
special messenger left Thursnay for
Mexico, to minister Forsyth. approving
of his suspension of diplomatic inter
course, and directing the withdrawal
of the legation, and his return home.
Later advices state that MIR. and
Mrs. Brown, of Tioga, are so badly in
jured it is feared they will die.
The Rev. Edmund B. Palmer, of Bos-
ton, it is also thought will die.
Jno. E. White, of this city, is also
lying in a critical condition.
A private despatch from New Orleans,
dated yesterday, says Gen: Quitman
lay at the point of death at Natchez.-
He could live but a few hours.
The Austria brings nothing later
than the morning edition OF the Satur-
day Times-no news in addition to
that already photographed from Halifax.
