thus made it treason against their civil rights
for any man to assume to hold Office under it.
According to the terms of the constitution.
this body, the second legislative assembly.
convened January 4th, of this year. In the
October election the ground had everywhere
been taken that the territorial forms should
be swept away by the peoples government.
conventions OF the free State party had so de-
cided. We have accordingly assembled, but
lind that the territorial legislature has utterly
refused IN any shape to recognize our exis-
tehce OF do any thing to strengthen the peoples
government. They have refused, even, to re-
peal the laws Of the Missouri usupers
Under these circumstances we find that the
people have made another government,
the acts and labors of which are supported by
federal money and federal power.
We do not now shrink from any responsible
" that might be incurred by sustaining the
peoples government, but we inevitably suffer
from these facts and our action is crippled and
rendered inefficient.
by concurrent resolution we asked the ter
ritOrial Legislature to do what the people of
right expected them to do, and took a recess
the better to enable them to comply, as best
they could, and during which to prepare a code
Of laws for the State to be submitted to legis-
lative action. This was done. On reassern-
hing,we find that the territorial legislature has
failed to redeem its pledges to a majority of
those who elected it. We find, that instead of
using the forms Of territorial government to
overthrow the Missouri usurpation. that snch
usurpation has been legalized while few
general laws, and large amount of special
legislation has been engrafted upon it.
such are the circumstances under which we
find ourselves. High executive officers under
the State constitution. have publicly declared
that :" the Topeka constitution is dead" Dis
couraged, many members of each body have
gone home, and left us without a quorum.
We are still ready operform our duties should
the majority of the people desire it. Should
a trying hour for the people of Kansas arrive,
by the acceptance of the Lecompton constitu-
ton by Congress, we shall be at our posts,
should the people decide to fall back upon that
old government. We are thus compelled by
necessity that leaves us no choice. to adjourn
for the present and to refer back to the people
who elected us, the question as to whether the
Topeka constitution is dead"

Matteson Proposes Treaty with
the Democracy.

The Washington correspondent Of the Mis-
be made by the notorious o. b. MATTEsON. of
New York. to the democracy, to be allowed to
retain his seat:
Il am informed that Matteson has made
overtures to the national democratic leaders,
TO the effect that if permitted to retain his
seat, he will cast no vote during the session
on any party questions; and that he will make
a diversion in his district which will result in
the election of national democrat to Con-
grcss next November. The fact that Mattesop
Is corrupt enough to make the overture and
the national democrats corrupt enough to
embrace it, gives probability to the allega-
ton. l cannot vOuch for its accuracy but |
can state that remarkable and a sudden
change has taken place in the attitude of the
national democratic party towards this man
Matteson. Since Thursday last there have
been several manifestations in that quarter of
a change of mind and "a disposition not to
push things to extremity. The report of the
special committee, and the action of the House
upon it. or the inaction of the committee or
of the House viii afford sufficient evidence in
relation TO this alleged intrigue What a
vivid commentary il would furnish on the de-
moralization OF the national democratic par
ty! The presence of the convict Matteson in
the House of Representatives was odious to
them, but on proposing to add to his calendar
of guilt an offence pre-, miuently fragrant and
Infamous their virtuous Indignation expires.
and the argis of the majority is held over his
thrice desecrated seat ~
