The STATE OF kAKsAs.-The Kansas Con.
'sn,ion recently in session at Leavenworth
t.yiug drafted and agreed upon the form of
Constitution to be submitted to the people, i,
sould be natural to suppose that, in case of its
approval, of which there can be little doubt,
Congress would gladly end the controversy
respecting that Territory BY it's speedy and uu.
conditional admission. Yet we see, not without
surprise, limitations in certain Administration
quarters, Of an intention to insist upon strict
compliance with the requirements Of the ENG.
Esh bh,' one Of which is, substantially, that
no step shall be taken by the people Of Kansas
towards the formation of Q State Constitution
uudl it has been ascer;ained by . census, duly
sld legally taken, that the Territory has pop
uAtion equal to the ratio Of representation re-
CURED for a member of the popular branch OF
Congress. There has been no such census, and
It is probable that there exists no such popula-
ton Yet it is not easy to believe that any
serious opposition to the Admission of Kansas
On that ground can Row be contemplated. The
want Of conformity TO provision Of the Eng
lsh enactment cannot invadate the action of
The people OF Kansas, nor put any legal action
IN the way OF another sct, or even of resolu.
ton Of Congress accepting the Lesvenworth
Constitution. 1t is hardly possible that even 10
the breast Of BRcwS, Of Mississippi, any hope
can hnger OF planting slavery in Kansas, and in
he lace OF the rec,n Ii; example Of Oregon, sd-
lifted with an insufficient population, aud SO to
peak at full gallop, there can be no plausible
neuse for insisting upon a more rigid rule in
hsard to Kansas, even if it could be supposed
selrable on the part Of the Administr. ton or
&sOu'h TO prolong q controversy in which |
tafer the one nor the other has won either |
i'nor or profit. We shall look, therefore, for |
aesdmssion Of Kansas to the Union as prompt.
= as may be, after Congress comes together in
