uti-Lecompton Meeting.

The Chinese Assembly Rooms in
New York were crowded on the 18th
ult. by large and intelligent gather
inr Of citizens, without respect to par.
", assembled to hear the history of
the latest wrongs against Kansas told
by one of it's chief Territorial officers,
appointed to his post by the present
administration. Hon. George Ban
croft presided. On taking the chair
Mr.. Bancroft said:
The principle of forcing the Lecomp-
ton Constitution on an unwilling peo-
pie, is Numerically at war with the
Fundamental principles of Democracy.
The same principles also that lie at
the bottom of this attempt to defraud
the people of Kansas of their rights
are dangerous, if not fatal for liberty
and property, and in their tendencies
lead directly toward disorder and des-
potism. The delay which has attend
cd our assembling has enabled me to
ascertain that the voice of the conser-
vativc body Of the men of property,
of standing and of wealth in this city,
is and must be by the necessity of the
case opposed to q system so revolu-
tionary and disorderly in its charac-
ter. The Democracy cannot but stand
firm on this ground. A thousand wit
nesses present themselves to the bo-
som of every true-hearted Democrat,
warning him to resist with all his
power the imposition Of a constitution,
on people who abhor that constitu-
ton, at the point Of the bayonet. The
foreign people who become our immi-
grants, to whom we hold out the hand
Of brotherhood and fellowship, we'll
remember what has trodden liberty in
Europe under foot, and know it is
completely between the Central Gov
eminent and miserable minority in
the several States.
Mr.. Bancroft said that numerous let
tors had been received for their en-
enlargement from men worthy of the
highest esteem, and among them one
from the illustrious Senator from llli'
nois, Stephen A. Douglas, which he
asked liberty to read. In this letter
Mr.. Douglas urged the Democracy OF
the whole country to hold meetings
and proclaim in tones that command
respect, their determination to sustain
and carry out in good faith the great
principles of self government, and an
unyielding hostility to the consumma
ton of q scheme so monstrous as that
Of forcing a constitution at the point
Of the bayonet down the threats of al
unwilling people.
Hon. Frederick P. Stanton, lat'
Secretary and acting Governor o.
Kansas was introduced to the audi
ence, and made a speech of more thar
three hours in length. The audience
numbering over 5000 persons, listen
cd attentively throughout. A scrlc
of resolutions were adopted, and tn
meeting adjourned.
