The sbolitionists of Kansas City had
better keep their mouths shut about the
Border Sfay. or they will see their names
u1ads more prominent than they desire. 1t
is not true that We have adyised or desired
any mob Law, and those who are represent
ing us-in street talk and in letters to dis
fans poinss--ss trying to raise = mob to put
down their abolition paper, know that they
are maligning as.
This Is no mob ruisd country like the re.
giou they hail from. The South is not the
place for mob law. Il is at the North and
throughout the free States where mobs are
the order of the day. Where one mob oc-
ours in the South dozen occur In the
North. Most Of the cases of mob violence
even toward abolitioDists have occurred in
the so-called free States. These pestiferous
fanatics have frequently become such nui-
sances that even free State communities
could not endure them. Abolitionists have
been mobbed in New York, Ohio and Illi-
uois-at Alton in the latter State. Lovejoy
was killed-but it is q rare thing for even .
negro stealer to be mobbed in southern or
westera slave State. These are indisputa-
bic facts.
"This is no mob ruled country" like
some others. says McCarty. Indeed then
it is not true that peaceable emigrants from
New England. New York and the free West
were met upon the great national highway
of the Missouri river, and compelled to
turn back from Kansas, under penalty OF
being shot? 1t was not in Parkyille; MIS-
soURI. where newspaper press was thrown
into the river because its editors and pub
fishers chose to speak their own sentiments
in preference to those of Atchison and
Stringfellow 1t was not at Kansas City
that Col. Eldredge was compelled by threats
and mob violence to abandon the hotel be
had purchased and which he was keeping
to the entire satisfaction of his customers,
bat not to the satisfaction of his mobocratie
neighbors 1t is not in Weston, Missouri

THE KANSAS QUESTION REVIVED.

The telegraphic reports Of the election re-
Gently held in Kansas on the adoption Of the
constitution framed at Wyandotte announce
that that instrument has been ratified by a
majority of the inhabitants Of the Territory.
We may therefore expect that the admission
Of Kansas into the Union under that consti.
tuition will be asked at the hands Of Congress
On the opening of that body at its approach.
ing session.
II will be remembered that BY the terms
Of the " English Conference bill" providing
for the contingent admission Of Kansas into
the Union under the constitution framed at
l.ecompton, it was ordained that in case the
people Of that Territory should refuse to ac-
cept the arrangement then preferred BY Con-
gress. they should not proceed to the forma-
ton Of new constitution and State govern
ment preparatory to their admission into the
Union until after it should have been ascer-
tanned by census. taken under the auspices
Of the Federal Government. that the Terri
tory contained population equal to or
greater than the existing ratio OF Federal
representation in the House Of Represents.

The proprety Of this rule is admitted By
all as general proposition. but us appllca-
ton to the case Of Kansas alone. when il was
expressly repudiated in the admission Of
Oregon at the last session. does not admit Of
such easy explanation or justification on the
part Of the Democracy.
I Ii remains to be seen whether they will
ignore the compromises Of the English
bill, as framed by themselves less than tive
years ago. or whether they will insist upon
a rigid adherence TO the terms Of the arrange
ment then concerted to serve as a graceful
retreat from the Lecompton controversy
