Thirty Fifth Congress.

WASHINGTON CITY. Feb. ls.-House
Mr.. Shorter, of Ala, spoke on the
Kansas question he said that all The
Southern States were now united un the
Georgia, platform and pledged to. resist,
even to the dissolution Of the Union, this
refusal of Congress to admit Kansas
because of the existence Of slavery there.
He cared not whether this was a consti.
tulional or revolutionary right of the
South, he was prepared to defend it, He
contended that the Lecompton Constitu.
ton was legally adopted; i. was Repub-
lican in form, and Congress has not the
power to remand Kansas to her territori-
ial condition, she being an independent
sovereign State, by the consent Of Con-
gTess.
Mr.. Shorter expressed surprise that
Mr.. Douglas had abandoned the princi-
pies of the Nebraska bill, fleeing before
the first gun was fired and like Parthan
throwing his poisoned arrows behind him.
He did not want the votes Of Mr. Doug.
las and his followers; if they did not re-
fleet Northern opinion The sooner the
South knew this the better. He contend
ed that it was never designed to make
Kansas a Slave State. Five governors
sent there were all free-soilers, including
the traitor Walker. 1t had been said
that the admission Of Kansas would lighI
,he flames Of civil war; if so, let it come;
let the fires rise even Heaven high. But
he thought the refusal to admit her would
rather engender civil war; referring the
question back to the people would inevi
tably invite this result. The South can.
not remain in the Union on an unequal.
ty with the North; in such circumstances
the Soutberners would not be brave and
gallant people, but were chained to tie
victorious car of the North. He would
