Congress. nor did the Kansas-S ebraska bill
grant to the Territorial Legislature the power
toeall Convention for the purpose of forming
State Constitution. And if the Convention
was legally formed body, as Mr.. Buchanan
assumes it to have been, the inference is ire
sistible that the Legislature OF Kansas had the
power to pass law conveuing such Couyen-
ton We are not prepared to argue the ques-
ton as to whether the Constitution bad any le-
gal authority or not, it is merely our purpose
to show up auolher Of Mr.. Buchanan'S tergiv-
ersalions. In 1885 or 1886, III the debate up
on the admission of Michigan. Nlr. Buchanan
expressly repudiated The idea that a Territorial
Legislature had any power TO call Conven-
ton for the purpose of forming State Constr
tEtion The following is an extract from his
speech;
"Ne ought not to apply the rigid rules OF
abstract political science too vigorously to such
case; it has been our practice heretofore to
treat our Infant Territories with parental care,
to nurse them With kindness, and when they
had attained the age of manhood, TO admit
them into the family without requiring fropl
them a rigid adherence to torlns. The great
questions to be decided are: Do they contain
a sufficient population! Have they adopted u
republican constitutions Aud are they willing
to enter The Union upon the terms which We
proposed If 50 all the preliminary proceedings
have been considered but mere forms, which We
have waived in repeated instances. They are
but the scaffolding of the building, which is Of
10 further use after the edi6ce is complete
We have pursued this course in regard to Ten
nessee, to Arkansas, and even to Michigan. =
No Senator will pretend that their Territorial
Legislatures had any right .Ehatever to pass
law, enabling the people to elect delegates TO Q
Convention for the purpose Of, forming State
Constitution 1t was au act ct usurpation on
their part"

THE FACILE Mr.. BUCHANAN.

Much has been said and written, concerning
the various evolutious which Mr.. Buchanan has
made during his political life. 1t is we'll known
that he was once bitter Feleralist, ana that
he is now Democrat; that he FOR many wears
recognized the coustitutionality OF the Missouri
Compromise, aud advocated it as the best aud
only measure of settling the slavery question;
that he once recognized the power OF Congress
to leglslate upon the question OF slavery in the
Territories, but that he now denies all such
power and repudiates the Missouri restriction
as an illegal assumption of authority. But it
would be useless 10 sndeavor TO follow him
throughout all his various twlStings and con-
tortons-the limited space allotted 10 Us in
our paper would not suffice for their enumcra-
ton. He has occupied both sides of nearly
every political question that has been brought
before the people Of this country for The last
forty years. Mr.. Gays severe sarcasm upon
him about his ability to turn any coat to suit
the times, was richly deserved.
But never did be turn so complete u somer-
set in so short space of time, as be recently
has upon the Kansas question. For many
~ glorifyiDg and shouting hallelujahs over the
great doctrine Of popular sovereignty, but they
now follow his example of splitting upon what
now seems TO them TO be an absurd aud de-
strucilgP theory. But few months ago Mr.
buchanan gave assurances 10 toe country that
the people of Kansas should be protected in the
right to mould their institutions to suit then-
selves, and his INSTRUCTIONS to Governor Walk
er breathed the same spirit. But III his recent
message be declares that it was not incumbeut
upon the Convention to submit the ConSiitu-
ton to the vote of the people of Kansas, but
minutes strongly that Congress shall admit
Kansas iuto the Union vita Constitution to
which the people OF Kansas are opposed Eve
rywhere in his message he speaks of the Kan
sas Convention as legally called and. eonsti-
tuted body. 1t was not called by an act of

RETURNING To THEIR CONSTITUENTS
Within the last few days IA number of tho
members Of the late Calhoun Convention have
passed through St. Louis gu their way to the
Southern States, no doubt for the laudable
purpose of reporting progress to their con-
sutuents. They do not hesitate to disavow,
persmptorily, any desire of returning to Kan
sus, that territorial paradise of politicians
1t may be mentioned, also, en- passant, that
they iuveigh loudly against Senator Douglas,
aud say that he Was weekly in communication
with the Convention, was advised of eve, ything,
and, up 10 the hour of adjournmeut, led theln
to believe that their course would meet With
his strongest support in the Senate. Hi.
present attitude, therefore, they attribute to
some new revelation in regard TO bis own
prospects, and depounee him for acting 10 bad
faith. If it should ever be necessary for ,hs
Calhoun Convention to reassemble, (which
God forbid9 its members would have TO bs
summoned from sixteen tates.-.Essouri
