The "irrepressible conflict" among the
Democracy, We learn from the Valparaiso
Republic, has broke out in Porter county as
well as I-aporte, and will manifest itscl: in
the shape of call in the next issue of the
Democrat for a mass Convention, on the
3lst to elect another set of delegates from
those already chosen. The plea, the Re-
public learns, for the new call, is that the
former election was informal. behind which
it is intended to Dust some Of the present
delegates and select new ones.

Kansas not 10 be Admitted as a Free
State. n


The Washington Correspondent of the
Philadelphia Ledger says: ~
/ learn from Democratic Senator'S that
Kansas will not be admitted as State a,
this session. with the boundaries proposed
in her State constitution. They object to
cutting off the Pixies Peak region. and its
consequent erection into another Territory
and State.
This is no more than was to be expect
ed from the Slaveocracy. They were ex,
tremely anxious to admit Kansas with q
Constitution authorising slavery, though
known to be contrary to the wishes of q
large majority Of her people. and which
even Douglas was forced to p. onounce q
cheat and fraud; but now, when she pre-
sents Constitution approved by a large
majority Of her citizens, these very same
gentlemen refuse to admit her. for no 9th
or reason than because she has refused t.
allow slavery to exist in her limits. We
ry WE'LL If free States can be kept ont o
the Union so can Slave States. The pre-

pocrisy and Utter decentralization Of tn
party, will return to plague the inventors

an entire population Of fully 100. OOO.-

An Indianian Arrested in Kentuck,

VIM. S. Demott. Esq. most rcspccta-
bic citizen of indianapolis. recently went
to Mercer Co.. KY. on visit to his rela-
tions, and while there was arrested and
imprisoned on a trumped up charge Of
tampering with slaves. There was not a
particle of evidence against him when he
was examined. yet he was held to bail in
the sum of $500 to answer to the charge.
which he gave, and was released. 1t is
such outrages and wrongs as this in the
Slave States upon peaceable and law abb
ding citizens from Free States that causes
such bitter enmity between the two sec
tions. If Slave owners were determined
to bring about collision between the
North and South, they could not pursue a
policy better calculated to produce that re-
suit. Such acts of tyranny and injustice
slave owners may rest assured will be re-
taliatcd upon them with compound inter.
