Territories.
We are determined to avoid all compli. !
cation and detail of facts. We aim at only
grouping great and admitted ones, and we
appeal 10 the records of past events to sus-
tain what we have said ; and now the
question is, what is the best mode of quclling
these two concerted rebelions? Concerted,
! for there is now no reasonable doubt that
tie leaders of both arc, and have been,
. acting with perfect harmony of plan and
} purpose.
The government is now in the hands of
the democrats. Its President, its cabinet,
its Congress are democratic, and have been
made so by the voice and vote of the sn-
dsotduaI democrats throughout the nation.
) A common responsibility, therefore, rests
on all democrats, as well IN Office as out of
Office, to queIlheSe rebel1sons, and TO restore
law and order to both Kansas and Utah.
E There is no escape from this responsibility
on the part of democrats, whether they are
in public positions or private life,
The President placed in power By tie
democratic purity says to Congress, quell
the rebellion in Utah by sending there
powerful and afficient army to subdue
Brigham Young and his leading coadjutors,
and bring them to just and legal punish-
: ment. As to Kansas, he says that after
having gone through many tribulations and
trials while in the midst of rebellion, and
i all the impediments which Lane and
Robinson, the secret aid societies, and the
black republicans everywhere, have created,
IS she at last stands at the door of Congress
with constitution admitted on all hands
to be eminently republican formed by
n a legal convention; admitted by Walker
II and Stanton and Douglas, and almost
= everybody else, but James Lanc,) to have
IS been a legal convention-a constitution
&c voted for, as it relates to the only disputed
10 subject embraced in it, by every bona fcle
d inhabitant who had mind or wish to
10 yote-s constitution which can be moulded
u and shaped after admission into the Union
IT just as the people from time to time may
u determine. Kansas, standing at the door
J. Of Congress with such a constitution as
II this, the President advises, should be adj
's mitted into the Union on terms of equality
II with the other States of the Union,
u MIR. Buchanan is a democrat; he was
d put at the head of the nation and the
party by democrats. AS President of the
of United States, he has been brayed in Utah
N and Kansas by Brigham Young and Jane:
Is Lane. He has met their treason with
l. great forbearance and kindness but the
81 time has come now when, in the discharge
at of his imperative duty, he is obliged tt
ID appeal against them to Congress and thu
he country What democrat that was pre-
re sent, in person, at Cincinnati whel
- he was nominated what democrat in al
I'd this broad land that voted for him in hi
al election, can now draw off from him AM
as 60 over and stand by the side of Lane =.
ny Yet, to vote against Mr.. Buchanan's re
'y commondasion to let Kansas into tn
er Union-is it net to join and vote with Ian
lat and his associates, whose perpetual cry i:
r. 50 Vote against her!" Keep her out
" Keep her out!"'
he There is no unsoundness in this argumen
he The demo Gratis are right on this issue, Q
ire the republicans are right ; James Buchar
re- an is right, or James Lane is right. An
raj no good democrat will catch at nice an
ey, unnecessary distinctsons in order to enrc
vii himself, in or ou of Congress, on the sid
lch of Lane, the traitor and rebel. There
,g- not 1--WE believel one democratic distric
ic. North or South, in this Union, whe
'on history shall duly record the great facts
his this case, that will support, by democrat
sanction, the exclusion of Kansas en- til
II Lecompton constitution.
CHI, What would be the fate of any democra
the in or out of Congress, who should refuse
the vote supplies or soldiers to crush IL
Sot existing rebellion in Utah The blacl
we republican enemies of democracy and hi
he, President, and her Congress, may vote
ted favor Brigham Young, and put their OPP
the sition on the ground of undying hatred
our democracy and all its ways; but how Ca
by any democrat hold up his head and loo
ny, one moment on the convention at Cincil
in natl, and the glorious platform which
inst ordained, and then not stand firm by Jam
Buchanan? We repeat, that no democr
two in these days of obvious disregard of la
and and order in Utah and in Kansas, al
lion indeed in many other quarters, will fail
