Nashville patriot. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1858-1860, 1858-03-17
Mr.. stephens Report on the Kansas
Constitution.

We commence to-day and will conclude to-
morrow, the publication of the majority re-
port of the House committee to investigate
the circumstances under which the constitu-
ton of Kansas was framed. We are induced
to reprint this document. because we believe
it presents, in narrow compass and con-
neeted view, the main and incontrovertibie
facts attending the call of the Lecompton
convention, and the formation of the constitu-
ton which has been presented to Congress,
and upon which application is made that Kan
sas be admitted as State into the Union. AS
a condensed history of these proceedings, we
invite attention TO it. 1t is Furthermore
complete exposure of the double-dealing and
insincerity of such men as DOUGLAS. STANTON
and WALKER, who, it appears, have sought to
make the imbroglio, a stepping stone to their
own advancement. And in this bearing it
also becomes interesting.
We hope soon TO be rid of Kansas as a ma
tional affair. Its administration has been
from the first series of political maneuvres
for party purposes. The people of the terri
tory have signiied their desire to take it out
of the hands of demagogues and party trick
sters, at least so far as those outside of Kansas
are concerned, and we hope yet to see their
desire speedily gratifed. Possibly the day
has passed, for harmony of sentiment to pre-
vail among the people of the North and South
on the subject of slavery and the chief OBJ
ject of the patriot of both sections, should be
to remove az quickly and as far as possible,
the questions growing out of it, from the
arena of discussion and contention. BY the
immediate admission of Kansas, this would
be, to very great extent, accomplished
and without doing violence to any constitu-
tional provision, or any great popular right.
While on the contrary, refusal to admit her
would unnecessarily prolong the slavery agi-
tation, and outrage the lawfully expressed
will of the law-obeying people of the terrific
ry as set forth by their chosen representatives,
and expressed through the ballot-box.

completely as if done by themselves. The
words finally adopted on this point in the bill.
after declaring the restriction of 1929 null and
void, were as follows: -s.e--s
at being the true intent and meaning Of this act not
70 legisIate slavery any Territory or State 20
exclude il therefrom leave the people thereof
perfectly free and regulate their domestic in
situations in their way subject only 10 the const
tuition Of the United States /"
IF any inference is to be drawn from this
change of phraseology. it is that the object
aimed at by it was to leave even the slavery
question to be settled. as all others had been
before, by the people, in their own way, in con-
formity to law and the constitution of the
United States. If they chose to do it by re-
representatives., the power was given them SO to
do it if they chose to do it by general popu-i
lar vote, the power was given them to do 1t In
that way. Congress was to abstain from all in
reference or Intervention with or over their
own way or manner of doing it, so that it was
legally done under the constitution OF the
United States.
The difficult with Gov. Walker seems to
be that they have chosen way of their own
different from the one that he would have had
them to adopt. He wished them to decide
that as well as other questions in his way; they
preferred their own way to his. To correct
this disobedient proceeding on their part, he
seems to be willing now to shed the "last drop
of his life's blood" .Eb

The Bank Bill.

The Bill which originated in and passed the
Senate, and passed two several readings in the
House of Representatives, to increase the
capital of the Bank of Tennessee about two
millions of dollars, was rejected yesterday on
third and last reading, by the very decided
vote of 80 to "a. During the progress OF
this measure, numerous attempts were made
10 re-charter the Union and Planters Banks,
which were voted down by large majorities.
We know not whether there will be any effort
to revive the bill thus killed but if there
should be- it will doubtless he Intellectual.
