would have forgotten that there was ever difference

Constitution was or was not reflection Of the will of
the majority Of the people of Kansas. Had that

bsen elected to Congress from Pennsylvania, Ohio

The Courier thus concludes

OF Seward with most profoundly strategetic skill.
They have created some division in Democratic

The man hidden by screen-the power behind

Inconclusion we will observe that later teegraphic
