General Calhoun, President Of tile Lecomp-
ton Convention, has at length satisfied him
self as to the merits Of the returns OF the
Kansas election held on the 4th Of January
for members Of the Legislature. and in COM
munication TO the Washington Star Of Satur-
day thus announces his decision:
Washington, March 10. 1855
As there has been great anxiety 10
learn the result Of the late election for mem
bers of the State Legislature under the Kan
sas constitution now before Congress, think
1t proper 10 state that recent information,
through Governor Denver aud others, leaves
no dnubt that the returned vote from the
;. Delaware Crossing" precinct, in Leasen'
worth county, should he rejected. and that
certificates Of election should be issued with
ont reference to the vote Of that precinct.
A month ago was put in possession Of a
newspaper containing what purported to be
the aifiiayits Of the judges OF election at that
precinct; and in a communication TO the
Union, | Immediately stated that IL the facts
contained in said afiidavits were presented
10 me in an authentic and reliable form. ]
should be governed BY them in determining
the result Of the election in Leavenwurth
county.
Although have not received any reply to
nv letter to Governor Denver, yet from
yarioas sources of information, / am left in
no doubt as to TIE statements Of the judges
of election It that precinct; and ] shall,
therefore. issue the certificates Of election to
the persons having the highest number o.
votes in l.eaveuworth county, irrespective
of The !" Delaware Crossing" precinct.
regret 10 add that this decision will give
the control Of Kansas TO patry which view
as the enemy of the peace and good order,
the constitution and laws Of the Union.
