That's the ESSme.

We ore only anxious that plain, palpable,
positive, issue be made between the Republi-
cans and Democrats of Ohio, and, so far we see
no raason to doubt that this will be accom-
plishel. That issue is whether Kansas may come
in as Free State without regard to population.
TO this the Democrats say No. The Statesman
in an article says:
The Black Republicans pretend that Kansas
has right to com, in whenever she chooses,
and under any terms, provided it is with con
stltution excluding slavery, because her former
applications have been entertained.
The Perrysburg journal. [volume] (Perrysburg, Ohio) 1853-1861, 1858-08-26
Now we denv the rroposition

Now we deny the proposition. 1t is an en-
tire fallacy. There can be no constitution
made, nor no applics tion preferred, absolutely
binding, until possessing the population neces-
sary for one member of Congress, and proceeding
in pursuance of the enabling bill, Kansas pre-.
sents herself as having complied with its provi-
sions. True it is that Congress may waive It's
objections to the irregularity of the proceedings
and admit State which did not proceed under
an enabling bill, but 1Oe do not think this a case
for departing from the general rule 4
No State ought to be admitted with less than
the populatoTrequired by the general rule, un-
less under most extraordin'ry circumstances
In the case of Kansas they do not exist.

To the Editor Of Portage Sentinel:
DEAR Sin: The Shalersville Academi.
cal Institute closed It's spring term on the
I'd instant. 1t has been conducted by two
ladies from Vermont. They came here las t
April, bringing with them commentator
from our former popular teacher, ]. N. Cilley.
They have not only filled the favor from Mr..
Cilley to overAowing, but have exceeded the
expectations Of the patrons Of the school,
AS true teachers, they stand par excellence.
Those wishing to send their children to
an Academical Institute, and have them in.
structed in the true dignity Of their nature,
in our opinion, better oportunity does not
present itself than the Acadamy situated in
the healthfuI village of Shalersville. ....
We have attended many examinations nd
exhibitions of Colleges and Academies, with
gr reater display, but never saw pretter ex.
hibit of what the scholars had learned. Tho
teachers truly exhibited the talents of the
school without pompods parade on their
part. Such order and genteness combined
can seldom be found. We most sincerely
hope that their patronage will not be less
than the energies which prompted them to
leave their homes, and the Green Mountain
State, for the little hill in Ohio.
