CT The country, as we'll South az North,
unanimously made up its mind many months
ago, that Kansas would come into the Union
On the side OF the slave States. This will
occur, in all probability, in less than twelve
month"; Washington States.
The States hardly tells the truth. The
North never ssunanimo usly" reached any such
conclusion. On the contrary, all, save few
"doughfaces," have had entire confidence,
from the first, that, unless the sentiment OF
the people OF Kansas was thwarted by Exec
utivc interference, that Territory would
"come into the Union" a free State. The
struggle has been hard and protracted
one nor is it yet over. But the chances now
are that not even the General Government,
backed by the Supreme Court, has power
enough to thwart the purpose Of the people.
