KANSAS AGAIN.

During the past week our ezchans have
been filled with exciting news from
Kansas" in which II has been reported
that a severe engagement had taken place
batween the free state men under Gen
Lane, and the United States troop. Pres
ent advices contradict these reports. 1t
appears that some fighting has been done
between i few free state men and a COM
pany of pro-slavery men, but as yet the
L. S. troops have not been engaged in
any conflict with the citizens
The voting on the Lacompton Consti;u-
ton was nearly all done one side, the free
state men taking no part in the matter
We have no news yet of the election
on the 4th inst

NATIONAL POLITICS.

The signs of the times indicate that the
political questions hereafter 10 agltate this
country, for time at least, Will assume
much more Of a sectional character than
heretofore. The Kansas difficulty that
has for few years divided the parties in
the North, bids fair to be the very means
of uniting political opponents into one
great Northern party, capable OF debating
the affairs of the Nation as it deems best
The principles of "Squatter Sovereignty"
as held by the Democratic party, and of
"a power Of Congress over the Territories"
"a principal Of the Republican party
appear both 10 meet with favor in the
minds of the leading political men in Con-
gress, both Democrats and Republicans.
While the latter are willing the people of
Kansas should decide for themselves the
features of the Constitution under which
they shall become State, the former are
ready 10 interpose Congressional author
ity 10 secure the people from fraud in the
just exercise of their rights. Thus We
see, both Congress and the people of the
Territories have their work to do-theil
spheres in which to act al the birth of a
new State.
There may be other questions upon
which Northern men may differ, bu
while the South insists upon forcing her
: Peculiar INSTITUTION upon the people
of a new State contrary to the wishes Of
a majority of her people, there will be a
unity of feeling among Northern men
sufficiently strong to check the power OF
the fire-eaters in their grasp for ascen
dencv of power.
