The Kansas FRAvp cossunnArED.-s,

fraud on the people of Kansas has been
pushed to a successful termination by the
adoption by both Houses Of Congress OF the
bill reported by the conference committee,
and known as the English project-a servile
tool OF the slave-Power of that name, hail
ing from Indiana, who had voted with the
anti-Lecompton men, being its ostensibie
author, though it is known to have -emana-
ted from Stephens of Georgia. Ii passed
the House and Senate by tn same majority
-nine-and orthwith received the Presi-
dents signature. In the Senate all The OPP
ponents of Lecomptunn stood firm and re-
sisted it to the last. In the House, twelve OF
the twenty anti Lecompton Democrats stood
firm, including all the Illinois members.
ed without an exception, led off by that mis-
cradle specimen Of dough-face, Cox. of the
Columbus district. He was one of the most
intensely fierce of the anti-Lecompton Dem
ocrats, was the first TO speak against it, and
professed TO be equally decided iE his oppo-
sition to the English iuggle, which finally re-
ceiyed his support. Those who know him
best are least surprised at his course. And
what makes the treachery of himself and his
fellows still more r~eprehensible, is the fact
that there was a clear understanding between
them and the Republicans, when the latter
consented to GO Tor the Montgomery amend
nnen', that the other party would in no even:
agree 10 any measure that did not fairly sab
init the Lacomptou constitution to a note OF
the people. Coz tried to deny that such
was the case but it was clearly established
as a fact by Messrs. Campbell, Haskin, Mar
shall and others, who in the course OF their
remarks gave the poor fellow a most unmer-
ciful raking.
Five of The original anti-Lecornpton
South Americans voted against the measure,
while one (Mr. Gilmer, Of North Carolina,1
changed front and supported it. Two South
ern fre-eaters, Quitrnan of Miss, and Bon
ham Of S,util Carolina, voted a against it. The
Republicans of course voted no without an
exception. All the Southern leaders in both
Houses declare it does not submit the Lee
compton constitution 10 a vote of The people,
and Pugh of this State takes the same
ground, further declaring that he * would not
vote for the bill if it did," On the othe p
hand, lis Northern supporters insist that it
does in effect submit it. Its clear that the

territory can reject it if they have sufficient
hrmness to resist the bribe that is offered
