"Ihaue swors ON ake altar Of my coua

THOMAS JEFFERSON.
He afterwards gave as a toast, the Col

Resistance to tyranny is obedience to
God"
OF such as Tom. JEFFERSON and JACK
soS, We learned Democracy when boy
the former taught us liberty, the latte,
taught us opposition to monopoly of every

The Kanzas news., 1858-12-25

At the last election in Florida, after IN
exciting canvass, less than ten thousand
votes were polled. The entire population
of the State, according TO the last census,
is about ninety thousand, of which very
nearly one-hah are slaves. Florida has
been State in the Union for fourteen years,
and probably had not, at the time of her ad-
mission, twenty thousand white inhabitants
The same influence that secured the adnais-
sion of Florida into the Union with tacests
thousand inhabitants, is now at work to keep
Kansas out of the Union until she has a
population of one hundred thousand The
reason of this is that in the eyes of the
Democracy one n.ggT is equivalent to .fye
achite men. A slave State may be admitted
into the Union on footing of equality with
the older States with population fourffths
less than that required 10 constitute rep
resentation in Congress, while free State
is required to have the full number requi-
site for representation before she can be ad-
mitted. This is what is meant by the term
s'National'' now -a-days, and the men who
demand for freedom an equal chance with
slavery are termed 'sectionalists.'

We have received the first No. of the
Troy Democrat. published at Troy, Doni-
phan county, Kansas, by Joseph Thomp-
son. Mr.. L. was formerly editor and pro-
prietor of the Geary City Era, but moved
his Office to Troy. The Democrat is the or
gan of the Cincinnati Platform Democ-
racy for Doniphan county. We wish the
editor pecuniary success, although h we don''
believe lie will ever attain it in Troy, for we
have not been able to find the advertise
ment of a single Troy business man in the
Democrat. Guess that, in the first place,
Democratic principles don't 'take'' out
there, and that the merchants of Troy (i
any there be) are set of numbskulls,
blind to their own interests.

commencing IN the very best age of the Re-
public, of The admission of Territories as
States into the Union, without previous
vote of the people approving their Consti-
tuition.
Under the ordinance which accompanied
the Lecomptoa Constitution, thepeople of
Kansas had claimed double the quantity of
public lands for the support of common
schools which had ever been previously
granted to any State upon entering the I'm
ion, and also the alternate sections Of land
for twelve miles on each side of two rail
roads, proposed to be constructed from the
northern to the southern boundary. and
from the eastern to the western boundary of
the State. Congress. deeming these claims
unreasonable, provided by the acl of May
4, 1853. to which l have just referred, for
the admission of. the State Oh an equal foot
ing with the original States, but upon the
fundamental condition precedent" that a
majority of the people thereof, at an elect
ion to be held for that purpose, should, in
place of the very large grants of public
lands which they had demanded under the
ordinance, accept such grants as had been
made to Minnesota and other new States.
An election was held throughout Kansas,
in pursuance of the provisions of the act,
on the second day of August last, and it re-
suited In the rejection, by large majority,
of the proposition submitted TO the people
by Congress. This being the case, they
are now authorized to form another Consti-
tuition, preparatory to admission into the
Union, but not until their number, as ascer-
tained by census, shall equal or exceed
the ratio required to elect member to the
House of Representatives.
1t is not probable, in the present state o.
the case, that third constitution can be law
fully framed and presented to Congress by
Kansas, before its population shall have
reached the designated number. Nor is il
to be presumed that, after their sad expe-
rience IN resisting the Territorial laws, they
viii attempt to adopt constitution in ex-
press violation of the provisions of an acl
| of Congress. During the session of 1856,
much of the time of Congress was occupied
on the question of admitting Kansas under
the Topeka Constitution. Again, nearly
the whole of the last session was devoted tc
the question of its admission under the Le-
compton Constitution. Surely it is not un'
reasonable to require the people of Kansas
to wait, before making third attempt, un-
til the number of their inhabitants shall
amount to ninety three thousand four hun
dred and twenty. During this brief perioc
the harmony of the States, as well as the
great business interest of the country, de-
mands that the people of the Union shall
not for third time be couyulsed by anoth.
er agitation on the Kansas question. By
waiting for short time, and acting ir
obedience to law, Kansas will glide into the
Union without the slightest impediment.
