GOVERNOR wIsRs MANIFESTO A0ArIs.
THE LEC0MPT0N CONSTITUTION.
The Southern Gronnd Of 0pposition-Bucha
Message 0verhauled.

A letter Of nearly four columns from Gov.
Wise, in response to an invitation to attend the
anti.Lecompton meeting held last evening. is
published in the Philadelphia Ress of this
morning.
Governor Wise says that careful review of
the Presidents message constrains him to differ
with the President of his choice. He protests
against the mode in which the Lecompton Con.
stitution was pretended to be submitted, a. anti.
republican and oppressive, and as offensive to
the selfrespect and moral sense of q free peo.
pie.
After expressing the opinion that the Kan.
sas-Nebraska act was an " enabling act of it.
self, he admits that the conduct of the Topeka.
ties was violent and unlawful, and that their
opponents acted under lawful authority up to
the submission Of the Constitution to the peo-
pie. But that has nothing TO do with the issue.

What other motive but desire to conciliate
that power could have induced the President 70
make this remarkable recommendation But
here, 1t seems to me, he went even farther than
was necessary to prove his fealty to Slavery !;
for his position on kansas affairs places him
first on the list Of champions of that very pecu-
liar institution. 1t proves the truth of all that
his Southern friends urged in his behalf during
the canvass that preceded his election, and
equally demonstrates the falsity of the positions
assumed by his supporters in the free States.
Why, sir, leading Southern journal, the Rich
mond Enquirer, declared that his record eds
closed a consistency aud an efficiency of service
to the South, which fattery could claim for no
other living mani" and that he never gave
vote against the interests of Slavery, nor uttered
a word that could pain the most sensitive South
ern hearth" How completely has he met the
expectations of his Southern friends! His con-
sistency and efficiency of service in their be-
half continues, and their sensitive hearts
have not yet been panied by any word or act
of his
But how is it at the North? We we're every.
where told in that section of the Union that
Mr.. Buchanan was a Northern man: that his
sympa,hies were with these who were striving
to make Kansas a free STATE; and that, If elect
ed, no " aid and comfort would be extended
by him to the rufian horde that had sought, by
fraud and force, to introduce this heartless des
potism, in opposition to the will of a large ma
jority of the people. Why, sir, the watchwords
of his friends in the North were, Buchanan
and free Kansas" Well, they secured Buchan
an, but net yet have they secured Freedom to
Kansas; nor is the prospect very encouraging
that he whose name was thus linked with this
Important measure is at all likely to promote
its success. On the contrary, so open. bold.
and utterly indefensible and inexcusable. has
been his course upon this most important of
all questions now before the American people,
that the very men who elevated him to the Pres
idency turn away, chagrined and disguised, and
