THE KANSAS QUESTION AT THE SoUTu has
become rs tiresome topic as at the North.
The South begins to sec her real position in
the controversy, which is not likely to rebound
to her interest nor her honor. The Colum-
bia S. CO. Democrat shows it has correct
view Of the subject in the following remarks.
There is no doubt Of the fact. as a general
proposition, that the Black Republicans OF
both Houses desire the admission Of Kansas
under the Lecompton Constitution, though
they will appear strcnuously to resist il. The
reasons why they desire the admission OF
Kansas are two fold-frst it brings addition
al strength to their side, as Calhoun will give
the State government to them; and it furn-
ishes them additional cause Of attack against
the Democratic party as appearing to be pro-
slavery. We have been badly humbugged
by Calhoun and his coadjutors.
This final development Of the Kansas ques-
ton is calculated to disgust the South with
the so called Democratic slavery party OF
Kansas; and think may venture the as
sersion that If the great bulk of the political
leaders in X ansas of both sides. including Jim
Lane and Dictator Calhoun, were pitched in
to the turbid Missouri with milestone tied
round the neck of each OF the individuals
civilization would lose nothing, and the South
would have no cause TO shed u tear. We have
been humbuggcd in Kansas in reference t.
| the strength of the pro-slavery cause; and
to wind ur the show at our expense, we hav,
been sold at public auction by Calhoun to tn,
highest bidders.

t. There are now over 10000 cases on
the books Of the Association for Improving
the Condition Of the Poor Of New York
These 10000 ore those who, having been
called on by the visitors of their districts,
have been declared worthy objects for charit-
abb relief. This vast amount Of mendicity
is daily growing, from the fact that many
worthy mechanics do not apply for aid until
the last dime is spent, and tho last morsel Of
food in their houses eaten. Tho Association
referred to is now on the verge Of pecuniary
exhaustion. At the last meeting of tho
Board, three weeks ago, the funds in the
hands Of the Treasurer were ovcrdrawn IS,
900, and since that time 1000 cases have
been added to the number asking relief
The managers state that 100000 will, at the
very least, be required to carry tho poor
through the winter.
