at Lawrence on the 18th inst put forth the follow

concluding paragraph of the Declaration of Amer.

THAT we do hereby, for the last time, solemnly
protest against the admission of Kansas into the
Union under the Lecompton Constitution; that we
hur back with scorn the libellous charge contained
in the Message of the President accompanying the
Lecompton Constitution to the effect that the free
men Of Kansas are a lawless people; that, relying
upon the justice of our cause we do hereby, in be.
half Of the people we represent, solemn'y pledge
ourselves to each other, to friends in Congress
and in the States, lives, fortunes, and our
sacred honor to resist the Lecompton Constitution
