THF "ARTFUL DUDGER" CAUGHT.

Mr. Buch anan, in his Message to Congress, in
gi,ing an account Of his nstu ,tions 10 Governor
Walker, at'emp,s y dodge which the evening Post
exposes. The Message reads thus:
Il merely said that when "a Constitution shall be
submitted to the people Of the Territory, they
inust he protected in tho exercise # their right
Of voting for or against that Instrument, and the
fair expression Of the popular viii must not be
by fraud or Violence"
Was this all the President said on that subject
Has he fully, frankly and truth(uly informed Con.
gress what were Gov. Walkers instructions? Or
has lie concealed an impnrtant-a vital feature
in these instructions Ler the record SPEAK:
when such a Constitution shall he submitted to
the people of the Territory. they he protected
in the exercise of their right OF vnting for or against
thnt instrument, and the fair expression of the
popular will must not be interrupted by fraud or
violence. | repeat. then, NJ my clear roviction
that unless the Convention submit the Constitution
to the of all the actual settlers Of Kansas aud
the election be fairly aud justly conducted the
Constitution will and ought to be rejected by Con
gress."
Insteod Of "meiely saying" that the Constitn
ton must have in its favor ''nn expression of the
popular will" and that the people must he pro-
terted in the exercise e" their right of voting Tor
ar against that IN>TRUNENT" the President, in the
same para graph at the same moment aud with
the same breath. added that unless the Convan.
ton submit the Constitution to the vote of all the
nrrnal resilient settlers of Kansas the "CONSTI

SOUTHERN SUPPORT FOR DOUGLAS.

/ Even in the South, the Justice Of the positions
taken by the author Of the Kansas Nebraska bill,

ters by the Democracy. While the fre.eaters de-
n0unce him without stint some of the more mod
crate and Conservative journals sather openly ap.
prove his course, defend him from the assaults
of their more excited neighaors. The Louisville
Democrat distinctly repudiatcs the dongs of the
Lecompton Convention as glaring outrage on
the people of Kanzas. The Richmond Enquirer in
clines to the same views and parties the blows
aimed a, Douglas by the Richmond South and
kindred presses. 1t is barely possible that Gre
