GEThe position Of Senator Crittenden
against the Lecompton swindle, probably
assures the vote OF Humphrey, Marshall
and Underwood, Of Kentucky, against it..
FSiuce the death Of CLAY, Cnttenden is the
great man Of Kentucky. Such a man
cannot take position, without having p
large number of folowers. Since Critten-
den has spoken, il is very doubtful wbeth-
Ter President Buchanan can CARRY the Le-
compton fraud through the House Of Rep
