I
The Hudson North Star has gone into
close communion with the Administrator,
It STYLES the English Bill a fair candid
and Just measure The Douglas ban,
ncr so lately waving over the edlloria'
coIumns the .Star, now ignobly trails
in the dust. Onthe SOth of Dec. last the
star. in closing an article on Douglas and
the Administration said-"Therefore we
let our Douglas flag wave on, and ~s"
so long as he remains on the platform OF
the Democracy" The Douglas flag is
struck, therefore the Star assumes that
Douglas is no longer Democrat. Having
cut off the lauded ''little Giant the Star
embarks with its customary zeal IN sup
port of the Administration. Instead OF
agreeing with the Star in regard to the
Kansas Bill as ''fair, candid and just
measure" we regard it as most unfair
and tyranical for the following reasons: :
First:--Kansas may come in as a SLAVE
state but not as free state. She must
come with the Lecompton Constitution or
not at all.
| Second This Bill requires greater
| population to justify her admission as
free, than as slave state. AS a slave
state, she may be admitted now, as free
state she must wait until after another
census has shown her to be entitled to a
Representative in Congress. No one
doubts but Kansas desires to be admitted
into the Union to day if allowed to come
with a Constitution of her choice.
TRird:-A liberal Land Grant is
promised to Kansas if she come in as a
slave state, while she has no assurance of
one if she chooses to be free.
Fourth: This Bill provides for a
Board to appoint the day and officers OF
the election, designate election districts,
and count votes, majority Of whom are
Pros Slavery Federal Office holders, some
of whom have already been proved to be
VIGOROUSLY dishonest and unfit for such
an Office.
Is such bill fair and just? Is it not
rather disgrace to the party that sup
ports it? Before we can believe it to be
otherwise, we must see it through some
other medium than the dim, uncertain
light the Star sheds upon it.

A NOBLE ASswEs.--A1n ass Cobb, a
member of the Legislature Of 1853; De'"Se
approached by one Of the initiated in the
La Crosse Company, and asked what
amount would induce him to cease his
opposition and support the bill gave the
following manly reply
81 asked, What is the amount of the
capital stock Of the Company? He re-
piled ten millions. | told him to say to
Byron Kilbourn that if he would multiply
the capital stock of the Company by the
number of leaves in the Capitol park, in
which we were then walking and give
me that amount in money, and then have
himself, Kibourn, Moses Strong, and
Mitchell BACKED and give me clear tt
tie to them as servants for life would
take the matter under consideration"
so shines good deed in naughty world. +"

The Utah War EIndeG.

The Utah war has ended without the
loss Of blood or the firing of a gun. The
news reached us by the way of ST. Louis,
the papers of that city having received
dispatches from Fort Lcayenworth, sta
ting that an express had arrived there on
the 18th, direct from Fort Scott in Utah.
with the message that the Mormons had
laid down their arms, and that Gov.
Cumming, by the invitation Of Brigham
Young, has entered Salt Lake CITY with
out an escort, and taken possession of the
Territorial Government of Utah. Many
of the Mormons, the report adds, were
leaving Salt Lake City, and emigrating
to the southern part of the Territory.
This news comes from source so appa-
rently reliable, that it is doubtless true.
1t is announced that the Administra-
ton have determined upon keeping a
large military force in Salt Lake City, a
depot Of stores, ammunition, equipments,
dc. The supply trains will be pushed on
and communication be established and
maintained between Fort LeaYenworth
and Salt Lake.

SIDNEY SMITH SAYS at is not true
that the world hates piety. The modest
and obtrusive piety which fills the heart
with human charities, and makes man
gentle to others and severe to himself is
an object of universal love and veneration.
But mankind hates the lust of power
when it is yelled under The garb of piety.
They hate cant and hypocrisy. They
hate advertisers and quacks in piety; they
do not choose to be insulted; they love to
tear folly and impudence frem the place
which should only be a sanctuary for the
righteous and good"

THE BRIDE BILL IN DELAWARE

THE BRIDE BILL IN DELAwARE.-A
Delaware journal expresses this just opin-
ion in regard to the late Kansas act:
We look apon this English scheme as
one admirably adapted to build up the
great Opposition party, and organize it
for 1860. Indeed it has furnished the
basis of platform upon which every free
and independent voter in the country can
stand, and, in proud contrast with the
present imbecile Administration, catch up
the standard of popular sovereignty and
State rights, which the Democracy has
ingloriously thrown down, and bear it in
triumph through the coming conflict.
Such will be the views of conservative
Southern men everywhere, whether open
avoWed or not
