Isit Congressional Intervention" to add little
amendment to the bill admitting Kansas as State,
providing that the Constitution under which it is
admitted shall be submitted to the people for rati
ficaton or rejection This is the whole question.
The Union of Sunday breaches discourse on the
"duties of the Democracy" in which 1t talks with
neglect of facts that is sublime, and assumes that,
as the Kansas Nebraska bill was passed and its doc
trines are sound, so there can be no objection to
admitting the State of Kansas under it on her ap-
plication. There is delightful simplicity in ig.
noring all the methods by which the Kansas Con-
stitution is brought before Congress as The Union
does but we are perfectly willing to give it for the
moment all the advantage of its statement and to
concur in all its honest horror of Congressional
Intervention" Allow all it says as to the duty of
Congress to admit Kansas under the LecOmptOn
Constitution, where is the Congressional inter
ton" and where is the improperly of adding to
the terms of admission the simple, orderly, demo-
cratic provision that the Constitution shall be SUBJ
mitted to vote of the people, The thing is CON-
ing to head rapidly and we want this question
answered VIII not The Union oblge us The
Union may be assured that it is question SO SIM
ple so natural so easily understood, that the peo
pie of the North will be very anxious to see the
reply.
And now as TO the action of Congress on this
subject. We trust and presume the Republicans
are composed upon the question. 1t seems to us
they have nothing to do beyond the remaining in
their seats and voting when the time comes. Let
other gentlemen vote as they like and without any
urging. If lie majority think best to put Lecomp-
ton through in all the breadth Of its iniquity, let
them do it, The consequences have been depicted
fully enough and often enough If the Administra-
ton party desire to brave the consequences of this
giant fraud let them consummate it. If the Sham
democracy think they can profit by the expert
ment' let them try it. If the Slave Power likes
the looks OF the results that will probably follow,
let it take the responsibility. Gentlemen of the
Majority the way is open before you; choose the
path you like best

Some interesting intelligence from the army oil
Utah is given in the letters Of our specih coFre-
spondent, brought by Mr.. Davidson, whose arrival
at ST. Louis was reported in our teegraphic dls-
patches on Saturday. Our correspondent flily
confirms the report of the general good condition
of the army, which is now increased oy
tie enlistment of battalion OF volunteers
composed msnly of men who went out
with the expedition as teamsters. lhe troops
were ell comfortably encamped, the weather
was mild, and no peculiar suffering is alluded TO 0y
our correspondent. A letter had been received
from Brigham Young, accompanied BY quantity
Of sslt-an article of which the army was at the
time in such want that SIS had been paid for
quart. Young said that his salt was sent either as
gift or for sale, as Col. Johnston might be DIS
posed but the Colonel sent it back on the ground
that the MomOns were traitors and rebels, win
whom il was not possible to treat in any peaceful
manner. The letter which Young sent with the
salt was pretty well spiced with warlike menace,
threatening to retaliate any harm done to the
Mormon prisoners with the army upon prisoners in
his hands. 1t is believed in fact, that Young holds
in this capacity no less distinguished person than
Col. Jack Hays, the Texan Ranger, whom he
seized in the Autumn, as he was on his way, in the
public service home from California. Subsequent
y to the rejection of Young's SALT considerable
supply was Obtsned from Indians who obtained
for it the handsome price of SO so per b The
Territorial Court had been opened by Judge Eckels
in one of the log huts of the camp, and had great
deal of business before it, growing out of cases of
petty larceny, assault and battery, and the like,
among the laborers attached to the expedition.
Our correspondent also sends some curious ex-
tracts from sermons by Brigham Young and Heber
G. Kimball.

1t is well known that for years past the planters
of Virginia have been able to keep their heads
above water only by selling off from year to year
portion of their human live stock. But not only
are the individual planters greatly embarrassed the
State itself is very hard pushed. Unfortunately,
in this emergency the State itself has no slaves OF
its own to SELL However, an ingenious device
has been hit upon to remedy this deficiency. In
this matter, as in that Of slayebreediug the Vir-
eipians have looked TO the coast of Guinea for
light and example. The King of Dshomey not
only raises slaves for sale, he carries on large
business in the kidnapping line; and surely it is
quite intoersble that the free and enlightened Com
monweath OF Virginia, the State of Washington
Jefferson and Henry, should allow itself to be out
done BY barbarOus African potentate. Westward
the course of empire takes its way. The King is
TO meet his match. No longer content with breed
ing slaves for the market, the Ancient Dominion is
about to produce bred already, and of all sizes and
ages, complete assortment, from pickaninnles up
TO graybeards and old women, cheap at five dollars
head. There are. as is well known, in Virginia
some seventy or eighty thousand free cOlored peo.
ple. many of them connected on the fathers side
so il ia said, with the first families of Virginia.
circumstance TO which good many of them owe
their freedom. 1t is proposed that the State of
Virginia shall seize upon these seventy or eighty
thousand persons, sell them and put the proceeds
into the State Treasury. A bill has been introduced
into the Legislature OF Virginia to that effect.
That bill proposes to give TIE said colored people
three wears in which TO move out of the State or
70 epslsye themselves, at the end Of which period
all those not thus disposed OF are to be sold by the
authorities and the proceeds of the sale deposited
to the credit of the State.
There is one thing however whi,h We must beg
leave to suggest to the introducerss advocates Of
this bill. II appears to US they are little incau-
tous in some Of the reasons which they urge in its
behalf Not content with resting the measure on
Bible authority, and the great example Of the King
of pahomey, they must needs urge in addition,
that the free negroes, take them by and large are
Door, indolent idle set little better than paupers,
a good many Of them piferers, and the larger
part living, not by honest industry but BY quarter
ing themselves on the rest Of the community. But
| this method of living is by no means confined to
the free negroes of Virginia. The number ofwhite
y.eabonds. drunkards, oilers, worthless persons
belonging to that State is g good deal larger than
that of all the free colored population put together

In the SENATE, yesterday, Gen. Houston spoke
in opposition to the proposed Army bill, and Mr..
Wilson offered an amendment, in the nature of
substitute therefor, authorizing the Executive to
enroll 5000 volunteers for certain enumerated pur-
poses. The further consideration af the matter
was postponed till to-day. The Pacific Railroad bill
was the special order but Mr. Douglas pressed the
Senate to take up the bill providing for the admission
OF Minnesota into the Union and was seconded by
Messrs. Crittenden, Seward, Hale and Wilson,
and opposed by Messrs. Gwin, Green, Bayard,
Brown, Fitzpatrick and Mason, the latter of whom
sad that il might be found necessary for the South
ern States, in order. to determine where they
"stand in this Union," to take up the Minnesota
and Kansas questions together. Mr. Crittenden
made aneloquent reply to Mr. Mason, which elected
applause from the galleries Without taking the
question the Senate adjourned.
In the House, Mr. Stanton Of Ohio from the
Tariff Investigating Committee offered resolu-
ton, which was adopted, requiring warrant to be

Constitution The Senator did not want to act on the
question Of the admission Of State, under the Con-
stituton authorized by Congress, because he wants to
see what the Republicans intend doing when the prop
oston for the admission of Kansas under the Le
compton Constitution, is shall be presented. he
would say 10 the Senator from Virginia, now, m
order that there can be no Misunderstanding,
that they would oppose the contamination OF the Le
compton swindle by all the means they could employ
under the rules of this body, and he presumed that
this will be the in the other House Neither he
nor the country could see why Territory which has

nearly the entire people of the Territory, and under
which was elected the Legislature, which has been 10

NJ. BAYARD Del.) adyerted TO the irregularty Of
the Legislature electng Senators, before Minnesota
was admitted into the Union as State, and thought
that they could not legally hold their seats under the
circumstances He regretted TO raise such question
against one Of the gentlemen who formerly occupied
seat in this body and for whom well as for the other
he entertained the highest respect.

proposition which looked so seriously 10 conflict that
might end in the disruption Of the Union as the one
entertained by the Senator from Virginia, viz: to
make the admission Of Kansas, under the Lecompton
Constit ution chstone by which fidelity Is to be
