The saloined is the concluding pa<tion OF an ad,s
politics Of the day recently delivered BY this rem
temsn. AT Brownsville, Pennsylvania before a demo
cratic meeting .,,,. .
- Now my friends have shown that by the pasrao
the Kansas Nebraska bill il Designed to remove
this agl,ng elen.ent OF slavery from the halls Of Con
grsss that with the organization OF the Territory Of
she fully invested with the right To form b
institutions her way subject only the const
ton of the uuit States that the law of the territorial
legislature authorizing the election Of delegates was
fair and proper law ia aocordAncc with the organic act
that the convention therefore legally
body, and the constitution formed by them WAS Legal
constitution that Ia accordance with Of
precedents almost uniform the convention might have
then deemed their labor complete and had the perfect
right TO claim from Congress the admission of Kansas
into the family Of States without the submission 70 the
people for ratification Of single provision Of her const
tuition that the organic act the only enabling act
required and that with the formation OF constitution
republican In form she had fulfilled all the conditions i'm
posed by that act and by the federal charter have also
shown that the slavery clanss submitted only a.
concession to the popular DESIRE and that the allegation
that there could BIZ voting for the clause without yo
ting for the whole is species of special pleading entire
ly unworthy OF the controversy insnuch the oons
tuition not in any other particular intended BIZ sub
mited and as the nyention claimed that II complete
and that their right to put 1t in operation beyond
dispute have shown too that II the opportunity which
afforded the people 10 VOTE both Tor the election Of
delegates and for the rejection of the slavery clause WIS
