THE REPORT.

Pursuant to promise we publish to-day the report
of the minority Of the Fort Smelling committee We
expressed on Friday our high estimate of the
ability of this document, one OF tho most pow
srfully-written papers of the sort that We have
ever read. 1t is from the pen Of the Hon Mr.. Faux
nsr, of Virginia. II the paper related to great
measure Of general policy instead Of speciality its
ability would make reputation for its author of tho
highest order. We commend it to the perusal of
the public, from whom, indeed, hearing is due to
the distinguished public officer whose conduct has
been assailed in this malevolent prosecution.

In the law which was enacted on Friday last, the
policy which the democratic party proclaimed eight
years ago. and nsuguraed four years ago, finally
ure of policy has ever been made to undergo. A
State was brought conditonally into the Union. with
pro-slavery constitution after prorscted discus
sion, and one of the scverest and most doubtful
struggles that has yet been known in parliament
airy history 1t was not that the subject, slavery,
was itself particularly involved; for there few
who believed that there any probability in fact
of the new State being slave State; it was mere
contest between the great democratic policy of o.
tablishng broad liberal just, catholic principles of
procedure and progress and the old antidemocratic
policy Of sdhsring to and perpetuatns arbitrary
restriction. eett sia
The battle is now won. We trust that there will
be noneed Of fighting it over again in the admission
Of any other State. It is for the adversaries Of
the democracy to decide whether there shall be q
truce on this question or not But, whatever their
choice shall be- we think the danger is over, and
that tho backbone of the controversy is broken.
We have fought the battle under many disadvan-
tages, to which need not revert 1t costs always
prodigious effort to establish great principle
and its championship is always attended by dscom-
ftures and defeats. But, once established, great
principles are apt to stand forever They vndicate
themselves. They fight their own battles. The gates
Of hell are unable to prevail against them. If the
democracy shall indeed, be challenged again to the
defence of the policy they have now inauguratsd,
shall have fear of the result of future encoun-
ters with the enemy. We have fought the great
fight unto triumph; shall carry it in the Skin
mishes scatheless and unframed.

Kansas In position to manage their own Affairs;
and that the business Of the rest of the Union may
have chance of attention from the federal egsa

desirable result accomplished They entitled to
popular applause and renewed confidence and If few
of them have Btrnyed for time from the fold to which
they belonged their voluntary return and subsequent
obedience to democratic principles should more than
atone for their fault you that the citizens of
