B6- The Legislature adjourned last
Monday, after a session of nearly six
months. And very intelligent democrat,
who witnessed much of the doings of that
body, told us, day or two since, that one
more such Legislature would effectually
cure him of his democracy. We think the
disease is obstinate not to have yielded to
one such dose.

The Bardstown Kentucky Gazette,
Dem. of late date, contained the fol.
lowing good article ON reading out:
"Let the friends of the Administration
attempt reading out Of the party those
who will not bow down and worship the
Lecompton swindle, and they had as we'll
assign. If Lecompton has become the
test Of Democracy, the party is dead sure
enough. Let US differ, if necessary, and
so without quarreling. Douglas is right,
as sure as the sun shines. Harvey is right
and Wise is right, The South seems mad
Pass Lecompton, and all faith in Southern
honor in the North is destroyed.
"But, say the Lecomptonites, Douglas
is acting with the Black Republicans!
Demolishing logic! Black Republicans
eat good dinners--ergo, Douglas must
confne himself to saw-dust pudding, or
he is not a good Democrat. Free Sellers
drink good wine--ergo, Douglas & Co.
must confne themselves to cistern water,
or they excite suspicion. Pshaw for such
sophistry, and pshaw for the asses that
use it.

WASHINGTON, March 10.

SENArE.--During Mr.. Toombs' speech.
he concurred ia Mr.. Bigier's explanation
Of his (Toombs) Bill. II was to bring
Kansas into the Union. without the vote
of the people on the Constitution.
Mr.. Bell resumed
| But how, he asked shall we cut the
gordian knot Of Kansas politics ?-.by the
sword or by peaceful means
The President, said Mr.. Bell, recon-
mends the admission Of Kansas under the
Lecompton Constitution, maintaining the
legality Of that instrument and its ac-
cordance with the organic act (
Mr.. Bell here entered into an examina-
ton Of the organic law, to see if il con-
terred the power upon the people of Kansas
to form Constitution whenever they
pleased, without reference to time or
population. He was sure that IL conveyed
no such power. IF it did, it would have
most mischieyous effect. Utah, New
Mexico, Nebraska, Washington and
Dacotah might all come in this session
under such principle.
Here, then, he said, is heresy put forth
at the threshold by the President. As to
the legality of the Constitution, he re-
ferred TO the authenticated records of sue
cessive fraud, and expressed surprise that
lsenrtors in the face of such evidence could
argue in favor Of the legitimacy of that
instrument.
1t would, he contended, take twice two
thousand troops to force that Constitution
upon the people of Kansas.
Mr.. Bell then went into a heightened
review of the Presidential campaign of
1852, showing the feeling then existing
relative to the Missouri COMPROMISE.
The successful candidate of that cam
paign, on coming into office, pledged him
self to maintain the peace of the country,
but within eight months, by the agency of
some diabolical magic, the aspect of the
political sky was changed, and tempest
arose that is still raging.
Free Sellers in the House and Senate
have largely increased, and will continue
to increase. Do Sothern Senators wish to
multiply them still faster? He thought
that one Of the worst results of the Kan
sas-Nebraska bill was to cement and Law
the foundation of an organization of this
sectional party.
Referring to the assertion that the ad-
mission Of Kansas would allay the excite
ment, he prophesied that it would take
three years, at the soonest before it would
subside.
In conclusion, he commented severely
upon Mr.. Stewards threat that agitation
must continue until the South ceases to
seek the extension of slavery under the
internal Constitution, and expressed his
own unalterable attachment to the Union.
The Senate then adjourned.

se5- Senator Crittenden's speech, on the
Lecompton Constitution, created sensa
ton. He took ground against it, as a
vile fraud that he could not sanction, and
argued that the South had nothing to gain
by its reception. We heartily concur wit.
him, on both points but would go little
further, and say that the South has much
to loose by endorsing fraud, and thus
establishing precedent that may recoi
upon her with frightful force. With
governments, as with individuals, honesty
is the best policy and the man who, as
politician, can reconcile it to himself to
endorse fraud, knowingly, aids in bring
ing dishonor upon his government, and
paves the way, by precedent, for the same
hne oil conduct in private life.
But if the Constitution is rejected, say
the eaters, the Union will be dissolved.
Well, if the Union can not be saved by the
honesty Of its rulers and the patriotism of
the people, it is scarcely worth Swing. If
rebuking an infamous fraud and demand
ing fair dealing, be sufficient cause for a
dissolution of the Union, "let it slide"
But all such cries issue from the throats
"r Political kpaves who are ravenous for
Office thepeOplc don't join in it, and when
the test comes, they will be found on the
side OF the Union, and in each fire. EATING
State there are enough conservative citi-
sens to quoll the rampant spirits who would
stir up strife, hoping to become conspicu-
Gus by means of revolution.

The marked decline of Abolitionism at
the North, within the last few years, is
thus accounted for in WILLIAM LoYD
GARRIsoN's paper, the Boston Liberator
zone has abandoned it because its ad-
vocates disagreed among themselves
another has dropped it because it has run
into politics still another has withdrawn
from it because it tends to dissolve the
Union very large number have quilted
it because it disturbs the peace of the
Church some would respectable people
have separated from it because it stands
directly in the pathway Of popularity
some have abandoned it when they found
that its principles required them to treat
the colored man as an equal brother in all
the relations of life. The last has proved
too much for the abolitionism of thousands
especially of heads of families who want
their children to be respected and honored
in the world"

a6s- The new phase Of democracy--or
rather the old phase newly exhibited---as
advanced by the Union and American,
would be lsughable il not painful to see
with what perfect dcspotism the leaders Of
democracy rule the party, and what absurd
tiles thepoor devilsare compelled 70 endorse
for the sake of harmony. The schism on
the bank question alarmed the Union and
American for the unity Of iocofocoism, in
this State, and its effort to heal the breach
Is really ludicrous. The organ virtually
says to- its subjects---it is not principles
nor measures that constitutes democracy,
but perfect union and harmony in spite of
chem. Don't you see that the editors of
the organ disagree on Che bank question
lone hard, one soft and tother neither
yet We are all democrats and cordially
Aarmonizet And who and what are you
that you should dare to disagree and dis
turb the harmony Of the party? Fools
don't you see that il is democratic to favor
and to oppose banks, as is demonstrated
by the attitude of the editors of your organ2
Must you be told, thousand times, that
union, and not principles and measures,
constitutes true democracy? What are
your opinions worth, when contrasted with
the importance and value of the spoils to
the great national organization, which
generously permits each and all of you to
think as you please, and only requires, in
return, that you do not make your opinions
the cause ofstrife?
This is, by fair and candid inference, the
language Of the locofoco organ, and we do
not see how any proud-spirited American
citizen can reconcile it to himself to CO.
operate with a party that avows unity of
action to be everything-principles, moth
ing. But such is the theory and practice
of locofocoism. Slavery and slavery
bank and anti thank tariff and anti-tariff
internal improvement and anti-internal
Improvement distribution and anti-dis-
tribution--in short, pro and con, on all
doctrines and measures are alike demo-
cratic because democrats are found on
both sides of every question and yet these
differences Of opinion, on vital questions,
are tolerated, as perfectly democratic SO
long as they who entertain them are SER
vile enough to wear the yoke and pull,
quietly, the party car But when Doug
lass, Wise, Walker, or Stanton dares
to maintain an opinion in opposition to
the great executive head ofthe plundering
party, the executioner, 1.-THE White House,
sharpens his axe, and the rebellious heads
are politically decapitated-not because
they entertain opinions at war with the
principles of democracy, but because the
manner Of avowing them is dangerous to
the harmony of the party. Such is loco
focoism, in its theory and practice, and its
dcspotic sway over the freedom of opinion,
in free country, is more odious and re-
voting than the absolute sway of tyrants
over subjects that know not what liberty is

"Well, gentlemen, there is one family
has got back safe into the Democratic
party to stay for life. tits the Van Buren,

the long, dreary road he has to travel, the
deep roaring streams he has got to swim
his horses over, the dark stormy nights
where the wind will blow down his tents
and ne will be forced tosleep on the ground
with the rain pouring on him in torrents,
the high, steep and rugged mountains he
has got to climb, the interminable deserts
where there is no wood nor wator he has
got to cross, in the road he has taken away
nom his fathers house. he would, in nv
opinion, take the straightest chute back
