WASHINGTON, Thursday, April -, 1853.
Although the result OF this eTentiul Kansas struggle
is much embarrassed and depends entirely upon the
course which the Southern extremists pursue, most
have surrendered agreeing to take the Janus-taced
contryarce, if the others do, and save the Admin
straton from impending ruin. AT A o'clock Gen.
Quitpan declared positively that he would vote
negatively, if alone. His course may possibly
affect others yet. There is ever reason to fear
considerable detection of the Douglas Democracy,
and it is not expected that more than twelve will
stand firm. The others have yielded to bese!ting
temptations.
The report from the Conference will be called at
o'clock, and an attempt made to force it through
under the coercion of the previous question. Gen.
Quitman de-, Tres TO make speech and 80 do 9TH

stated in The tribune and elsewhere. Messrs.
Green. Stephens aud Hunter would never have
agreed TO such concession, and the scheme was
cobtriyed by their manipulation in part. 1t pre-
sents proposition Of Congress rendering the land
grant 10 vote, making the admission Of Kansas
under Lecompton contingent on its acceptance or
rejection nothing more.
The telegrsphic report from ST. Louis that mes
senger ofthe Government had passed through with
dispatches to Col. Johnston, ordering him to delay
bis advance until the arrival of the Peace COmmls-
sioners. was wholly unfounded. No such purpose
has been or is entertained, and il is fully expected
at the War Department, according to. the last In
tellgence, that he will move forward when joined
by Capt. Marcy, with cattle, probably about aweek
hence. without waiting for the Eastern reinforce
