THE KANSAS CONFERENCE BILL.

REMARKS HON. ". W. BOYCE,
OF SOUTH CAROLINA,
In tile House Of Representatives, 3a Nay 1858
Mr.. Boyce. Mr.. Chairman, sought the floor
some days since, as soon as possible, after the
gentleman from Mississippi [Ar. Quitlnan] had
stated his objections to the bill then before the
House, reported from the committee of confer
ence in relation to the admission of Kansas.
The ligh regard have for that gentleman i'll
duccs me 10 treat his dissent upon this occasion
from tile almost unanimous action of the SOUTH
ern delegations in both houses with great res
pect. The gentleman's objections to the pro-
posed bill were two-told. First, that it was a
letting down on the part Of the South from the
position we had heretofore held upon this SUBJ
iect. Second, that the reference of the land
grant proposition to vote of the people of
Kansas was an Infringement of State rights.
Even if I were to grant the truth of the first
objection, it might not he conclusive; because
the question would still be, was the present
proposition wise? Ii that question be answered
in the affirmative, rs think it must necessarily
be, shoull we be eStopped from taking it because
we had previously taken an indefensiLle posi-
tion2 think not II our past position was
unwisely taken, instead of clinging to error: we
SHOULD make haste to put ourselves on the i'm
pregnable ground Of coiumon sense and truth.
But do not admit that we have changed our
ground. What had we been contendng for I?
That Kansas should not be rejected because she
had slave constitution, and that Congressional
not intervene and prescribe how that constitu-
ton should be framed by the people Of Kansas
The bill from the committee comedies both Of
these positions as claimed by us. The bill con-
ceding both these propositions, only requires
the assent of the people of Kansas to what is
confesscdly . reasonable proposition in reference
to the public domain. We have never conten-
ded that Kansas should be admitted with her
unjust ordinance operative in regard to the pub
lie lands. All of our action upon this subject
has been in reputation of that ordinance. We
now say to the people exactly what we have
said all the time-repudiate that ordinance,
agree to what is customary and right in regard
to the public land, and you are in the Union
under the Lecompton constitution; We only
vary the mode of obtaining that result. The
first objection Of the gentleman from Mississip-
pi is, submit, unfounded.
I proceed now to the second objection. This
requires more extended consideration, and in
wolves wide range Of augmentation on con-
stitutional law, which will furnish, l think,
satisfactory answer to the objection.
The territorial legislature of Kansas called
convention to frame State constitution. The
convention framed what is known as the Le-
compton constitution, and applied for admission.
Whatever vitality this constitution has was de-
rived from the territorial legislature. | censid-

I give thee up-my heart too long has wasted
Its purest incense on thing OF clay;
Too long hath worshipped thee with blind devo.
Go from my heart, would not bid thee stay
Take back the wolds DER which my soul hath
fingered,
Recall each smile, for I would fain forget;
Of all the past, with every fond, sweet, dreaming
pray thee leave me nothing but Hgret.
give the up-thou cold, but cherished idol
Now to the world its noise, and din again;
Once more amid the mirthful throng I'll mingle
And struggle to torget-alas! in rai'
III twine the festive garland DER my forehead
And mid the gay I'll be the gayest there;
Bright ruses will wear upon my bosom,
All! who may tell beneath them lies despair
give thee up-for too long have made thee
A holy shrine whereon my heart to lay
Too long hare bowed my soul in silent weeping,
And dream ell but ofthee all the night, and day
That last cold sentence though so kindly worded,
It's bitter meaning was too plainly seen;
Twas like all arrow garlanded with roses,
And ranked in my heart with points us keen,
give thee np-go w.o, and win another,
For will not remind thee OF the past;
Some lovcer form than mine must haunt thy
dreaming,
Forget the shadow thou DER nc hast cast
Forget that thou hast crushed hopes loveliest
flowers,
And ,akcn of one life its sunlight all
Forget that thou hast left the heart that loved
thee,
shsouaed IN darkness Ike q funeral pail.
give theo up-not once will upbrasi thoe,
Mine wns tho fault; for was 'elf-dersirtd,
Thy friendship mistook for dearer feeling,
And in thy lovo loo Willingly believed.
Yet, art thou hlamclcss ? Oh il yondcr heaven,
Can hold thee so, then will too forgive;
Go, ask thy heart, and if it has no adder
To turn and sting, in dreams of pleasure live.
give thee up-and with thee too relinquish,
Each dream that made life's sunshine every
day;
All confidence, and trust in mortas vanish
lflhou art false, then what, oh! whataro they
Hencciorth with heart as cold as yondcr iceberg
I'll list unmoved to tales Of human love;
II one so fair rs thou canst be deceptive,
Faith should be placed on rausht but things
above.
give thee up-I will not say forget me-
Too we'll know thou never canst forget,
wien other hearts their tales OF love shall
whisper,
Some memory OF the past will linser yet,
And in those halls, where music has its dwelling.
Some voice will chant long g-forgotten straini
Twill strike the chords which silently have
slumbercd
Thoult think of me-ah yes with bitter pain
1 give thee up-yct in the restless midnight,
know thoult.haunt ME with thy calm, blue
eyes,
And will dream of joys forever perisled,
For love may fade, but memory nerer dies.
llsee thee oft, when moonbeams sof lie sleeping,
ri gee thee as thou vert, not as thou art;
And when wake once more to bitter weeping
III find thee still enslrincd within my heart

A GREAT GUy.-KILLlSG MADE EAsY.-The
Buffalo Express tells Of warlike invention Just
brought out in that city, which is of an e1traor-
dinary character, provided it possesses all the
qualities represented
building on Washington street, between Seneca
and exchange streets. The piece is u beautiful
little brass gun Of the usual shape, mounted on
wheels, and so constructed that n rotary cylinder
constitutes the breech which contains four char.
ges replenished by means Of a hopper, ind fired as
rapidly as q man could work an ordinary lever
backward and forward. The piece is discharged
by electricity and from this results an important
and valuable discovery which was developed al:
ter the completion of the piece. BY means OF
the battery and wires connecting with the cylin-
der by which ignition is caused, the cylinder be-
comes perfectly electrical arlich Keeps it as cool
as if continually bathed wili ics. Some two hun
dred rounds were fired Yesterday in rapid sue
crssiOn at the rate of about 30 rounds per minute,
at the end of which time without using the swah
once, the brecch was much colder than when
the firing commenced The rapidity of the
firing was much retarded by the bad quality of
the cartridge in Use, but such as it was it was
sufficient to demonstrate the complete success
OF the invention. Even 20 rounds per minute
would seem to be sufficient for all reasonable, or
unreasonable purposes for that matter; but we
entertain no doubt that with cartridges properly
prepared the inventors expectation Of 60 rounds
per minute will be fully realized. We under
stand that rs soon as all arrangements are com.
pleted, the inventors will proceed to Washington
and lay their plans before the government The
necessary steps have been taken to secure Eu
ropean patents, and when oil is complete, and
the machine in operation, we do not believe that
nations can hereafter afford TO go to 'oar.
