Another Plot 20 Defeat the Adj
mission Of Kansas.

The President and Secretary Of the
Kansas Constitutional Convention, who,
with the Governor, are constituted by the
constitution an election board to receive
returns of the vote Of the people upon the
constitution, have issued their proclama-
ton for an election in accordance with
the constitution and the election laws of
the Territory on the first Tuesday Of Oc-
tober, for the purpose of enabling the vOt-
ers of the territory TO express their ap-
proval or disapproval Of the state consti-
tuition. Gov. Medary was absent from
the Territory and his name does not ap-
pear In the proclamation; but his SecrotN-
ry, Hugh =. Walsh, has issued different
proclamation with different instructions
for holding the election. IfGov. Mcdary
sanctions this, il will show clearly that
the administration is determined TO defeat
the admission of Kansas by any means
possible. The Wyandot constitution Gre
ates board Of canvassers, composed Of
the President and Secretary Of the Con-
ventioh, and the Governor. The Con-
vention had supreme control over all
matters pertaining to the Constitution
The Governor has no authority over it eK-
cept hS a n'smber of the board Of canvas-
sers, and it would be a high handed move
and Of piece with all the policy Of the
administration toward Kansas, for the
Governor to override the majority of the
board and get up a conflicting olection,t TO,
furnish an excuse TO the democracy for
opposing the admission of this State,
which it is already foregone conclusion
is not to be admitted into the Union c1-
cept against the whole power of the ad-
ministruton.

A good story was reif in our city lately
which serves to Illustrate that possession
is nine points Of law. A israthor a sharp
lawyer, and resides next door to b. The
houses that A and b occupy are similar
in appearance, and ss they adjoin are easi-
ly mistaken by comparative stranger
b being out Of COAL walks to the coal
market, purchases a load for $3.50; and
sends Il home. The man ofwhom he pur-
chased mistakes the residence Of A for
that of B, and dumps the coal in AS
yard. The lawyers man sees the coal in
the yard and gets wheel-barrow and shovel
and puts il in the cellar. b is in "peck
of trouble" that his coal does not come,
and goes out to find the man from whom
he bought it.
"See here, my country friend bought
a load Of coal Of you, and you have not de-
livered IT," says B, as soon as he had found
the collier,
"You bought the load and paid for il,
and ! delivered it," said the coal dealer.
Here the thought struck that he saw
coal in his neighbor's (the lawyers yard
and Immediately diyinedthe mystery. He
started for the lawyers office, and finding
him thus Hccosted him;
"Mr. A, suppose you should buy a load
Of coal, and the man should put II in the
wrong yard, what would you require ofthe
gentleman who appropriated the coal :"
"Woll, sir, said the lawyer, 81 should Ell
ther make him return tho coal or pay the
amount paid for the coal ?"
Very well, said Mr., d, 'just give mC
S3,8O."
The lawyer gently drew thirty cent
from his pocket and handed il to D.
"What does this mean, Mr.. A You owe
me three dollars more" said the astonish
edB,
"Not at all said the lawyer" ~ eharg,
hre dollars for my advice"

Since Judge Rannoy's emphatic denial
at Cleveland end elsewhere, in his dis
cussions with Mr.. Dennison, that he ev-
or denounced the Fugitive Slave Act az
unconstitutional, or even characterized il
AZ unjust, or advocated lie repeal, we have
taken some pains to look little further
into the record upon the subject, to dis
cover, il possible, whether his sentiments
at that time had been misreprcsonted.--
For this purpose we have hunted up the
files Of the Mshoning Inder, Democrat.
io paper published by JoHH r. CHURcH,
Esq, in Garfield, at the time the "indig-
nation meeting" was held at which Mr..
Ranney wns present and spoke. In the
issue Of that paper bearing date Novem-
Der /, 1850, in addition to the official re-
port Of the meeting heretofore publish
cd from the Ohio Republican, we find
the following editorial article, reviewing
the proceedings, aud giving a brief report
Of the various speeches made upon the oc.
casion. Mr.. CHURog, who is still a resi-.
dent Of Garfield, and one Of lis most es.
teemed citizens, will testify to the cor
roctness Of the report then made by him
Of Judge Ranney'a remarks. Besides
Mr Ranncy was attending Court in Can
field at the time, and undoubtedly saw the
article, but did not attempt TO say that hC
had been misreprescntod. Furthermore
the editor would not have dared to mis-
represent him, when there was such &c,

"Go bocktoyour youth, Judge Ranney;

cate anew the principles you then adyo-
Gated; become once more true 10 the no.
bility of manhood you then displayed;
break off from the party which is seeking
to subjugate you and all the people ofthe
Republic; and you will find that these
good old ways will be all ways Of pleas

The Democratic Record on the
Admission of states.

Judge Ranney in his speech at Dayton
said 70 the democrats we are indebted for
ell the free States admitted; the Repub-
licans having always voted against them
and against the acquisition Of territory.
He instancod California. This was a
most unlucly 0llusion for the Judge, and
shows his rustiness in politics. The ad-
mission Of California was opposed by the
democratic party solely because It was a
free State, and was only carried after a
bitter contest, by uniting the admission
with a series Of compromise measures.
For the admission ofa free State the North
were obliged to pay the price Of the fugi-
tive slave law.
Thirteen southern Senators formally
protested against the admission after il was
carried, solely because il was a free State
by its own choice. Amongthem was JEFF
ferson Davis, afterwards leader Of Pierce's
Cabinet, aid now the leader Of the DEM
ocratic party in the Senate.
Territory sufficient for six free States,
10 which the democratic platform declared
our title TO be "clear and unquestionable," )"
was surrendered TO Great Britain by dem-
ocrntic administration. A democratic ad-
ministratron declared that a Slave State
might be admitted at once without requir-
ment as to population; but if the people
made II free, it should stay out indefinitely
and now when a State has formed a free
constitution and ask admission, although
the constitution is almost a copy of that oi
Ohio, which Judge Ranney helped make
no democratic paper or orator has yet dared
to saythat the party would support heI
claim for admission.--O s.. Journal.
