mea.urably transcendsd all its predecessors. In
vain few bold thinkers, writers. md speakers,
pronounced it fraad on the part "f its Northern
advocates, and a terrible dcluson hero. In val"
they explained that the Missouri compromise was
established almost unanimously by Southern votes,
ami as a measure Of safety. IL vain did these few
mcn explain that the Only pos~ih,c effect nf tho
passage Of this bill would b. "a f,roe Two pew
free States into the Union--decate. before their
time-and that in the sectional struggle, Missouri
would be abotionixsd. 10 win did they cxpaa
that the popular sovereignty" of the Kansas bill
was but delusive name for "squatter sovereign

horred and finally, that u tho South the kansas
bill which Democ racy was introducing 70 our EN-
brace as a trophy, was Grecian horse very
Pandoras box, full of cvils" We say in vain
were these facts urged, these warnings pressed up
on the esrnes, attontion Of the Southern people.
We can all remember how bitterly their truths
were denied, aud how boldly the merits OF the bill
were reiterated. Nay worse. We can fcniember
with what extreme Of viruence its opponents vert
denounced, their motives slandercd, and their pur
poses villi6ed. We eau all remember the whole
sale charges Of "Black Repub lcanism" aud "Abo-
litionism," with which they were overwhelmed
until scarcely one was found bold enough to con
time tho warning Nay, we can all remember
that % late Is the fall VI SO Wise and pa,r-

But the events Of the last year have rent the veil
which concealed this great embodiment Of all thai
was wise, pure, or patriotic; and exposed
. veritAble Mokanna in. all its glazing deIormity
We zee that the Kansas bill is indeed n Grocan
horse. whose advent into the recognized princ
piles Of Southern policy is likely to be an over

ancient Greciau horse was to the deluded Trojans
Already have re began to reap the bitter fruits OF

can honestly question-in the fearful aggregation
Of power which this unnecessary and most mis-

now that the necessity of the warnings of the few
