Kenosha, March 10th, 1858.


WAsHINsToN, March 12.-SENATE-
Mr.. Chandler, of Michigan, addressed
the Senate ON Kansas affairs. He was
opposed to the Lecompton Constitution
for four reasons LIST because it was CON
ceived in fraud and concluded in fraud;
I'd. Because it does not emanate from
the people of the Territory, nor express
their will Sd. Because it is one series
of aggreSsions ON the part of the slave
power, which, If contaminated, Will end
in the subversion of the Constitution /;
4th Because it strikes death blow at
State rights and popular sovereignty
IN arguing the first of these points, he
referred to the conditions and workings
otthe Missouri Compromise, contending
that things worked smoothly with occa-
sional exceptions until a new light
broke upon the country in the shape Of
popular sovereignty, and that up to the
appearance of the Nicholson letter, the
power of Congress to legislate for the
territories was unquestioned. This let
ter was held up is high bid for office,
but bids still higher were demanded.-

there are three other men to whom the

He alluded to Stanton, Walker and

Mr.. Benjamin's argument that slavery
was the common law OF England, quo

He also referred to the bred Scott de-
cision, the principle of which he de-
nounced AS the most dangerous agrees

County Poor.

To the voters and Tax payer of Ke-
nosha County. At the annual session
OF the County Board of Supervisors OF
this County in November last, the fol-
lowing resolutions We're adopted and
the clerk instructed to publish them and
present, at the same time, such statisti-
cal facts as may bear upon the subject.
Resolued, That in the judgement of
this Board, the present isolated system
of the support Of the County poor, in
this county, is far more expensive, than
it would be, if the county availed them
selves of the benefit of some suitable
farm on which to support such county
poor, as could be placed upon it, and
that the expenses of the poor Of this
county, an now, from one fourth to one
third of the entire amoutsof our county
tax. 9f
Resoloed, That the subject of the
purchase of farm for the support of
our county poor, be laid before the towns
Of this county at the annual town meet
ing in April, and that the electors be re-
euested to vote for or against the pur-
chase of farm for such purpose.
BY county poor is meant that class Of
paupers who, when, they call for pub
lie aid, have not resided in this county
one year. [ =
