HIEDARY,s VETO.

Popular Sovereignty" in the Territories, as
embodied in Douglass Nebraska bill and Bucha-
mans electiOneeiing pledge TO leave them "per-
"fectly free to do as they pleased on the subject
was already stale joke; but Gov Medary's late
Veto has given it a new and vivid calculation.
We presume there are not many Americans who
can read who are unaware that the people of Kan.
sas are hostile to Human Slavery. They have said
So in every election held in their Territory since
1854, when they were not oyerboIne by Border
Ruffian invasion; they said so emphatcally in their
overwhelming vote to reject the Lecompton Consli-
tuition; they raid it again in calling then in eectng
the Constitutional Convention which met last Sum-
mer at Wyandot; and yet again in ratfyiog the
Constitution there made; and still again IN eectng
the Free State Ticket to compose and organize q
State Government under that Constitution. Gov
Medary ought certainly TO be aware Of oil this; for
he has fought ii step by step, and was the opposing
candidate for Governor at the late Election, and
badly beaten.
Yet Kansas is still conttructiyely Slave Terri

Georgia." says President Buchanan. A very few

long since advertised for sale on an execution for
debt in Leayenworth County. The Territorial
LEGISLATURE tried last year to abolish Slavery, but
the Governor bsaled them; and this years Legsla-

For some years past Mr.. Cornelius Vanderbilt
has been seeking from the Legislature permission to
build pier south of Pier No. |, North River This
session he has been engaged in the same endeavor
and, if report be true, has secured the privilege
Very recently Battery place has been widened, and
laid with Belgian pavement quite down to the
water front from which Mr.. Vanderbilt wants to
build ths pier. Was it to accommodate the
"Commodore" that the Common Council made
this improvement 1t is go rumored, and appear
ances favor the report But if this valuable prlyl-
lege is TO be given away protest, in the name OF
be taxpayers of the city, against the outrage.
This privilege is worth 800 000 cash, at least, for
the location is the best On the river But we con-
tend that such grant from the Legislature
would be clearly illegal. The ground sought to
be occupied is part of the Battery which was ceded
by the State to the city as pubic walk aud pleas
ure ground forever. As Corporation real estate,
il is also pledged for the redemption of the public
debt: and, should the Legislature pass the bill, Mr..
Haws-as faithful guardian of the City Treasury
will hardly let the property pass from the Corpo-
ration without a struggle. But why should Mr..
Vanderbilt, or any other wealthy man, resort TO
the devious ways OF State legislation to put him in
possession of any thing which he may covet of the
Corporation 2 Why not, like the bold Law, lay
lawess hands upon and appropriate the property
without 20 much - by your leave ?" The latter
course cOmmends itself over the former by its
straightforward mode Of proceeding.

the means of paying for the work, if it was done

Tie Executive Committee of the Republican
National Committee met yesterday at Albany, and,
after due consideration of the views submitted in
writing by all the members of the National Com
mittee decided that our National Convention at
Chicago shall assemble on WedneSd0g May 10th,
instead of Wednesday,, June 13h the day first
agreed upon. The newly appointed day is just
fortnight later than it should have been; but no
matter-here is a clear gain Of four weeks as COM
pared with the time previously announced. b.
sides, the Oregon Delegates will have news of the
change of time as early March 25th, and they
need not start from home till about April 10Th or
18TH in order to reach Chicago in season. So let
US hush all grumbliDg, roll up our sleeves and go
70 work. The National Convention meets eleven
weeks from this day: let us unanimously resolve to
have an active, working County Club organized IN
every County, and in at least nine-tenths OF the
Townships before that day. Let us see that
every citizen who will take a Republican
newspaper is provided with good one; let US have
tbe most efficient documents freely circulated in
every neighborheod; and let US take special care
that those voters who do not read our language are
supplied with facts and arguments printed IN tnei'
mother tongue. Republicans it is sheer iOliy 10

to quarrel and fall asunder at Charles

Slavery in the Territories or anything ci'o
They have been too long at the pubic crio' anu
found too good fodder there, to quit TIL they are
