THE DISTRICT CONVENTION

Calls for Caucuses to choose Delegates to
the Hydepark Convention, in several of the
Towns of the County, will be found in our
columns to-day. Caucuses are also called in
several other Towns, whose Committees have
not thought 1t necessary 50 to publish the
call. II any of the Town Committees have
not as yet called together the Republicans Of
their respective Towns, for this purpose,
there is still time to do 50. and the duty
should not be neglected.
We need say little more than we have
done, upon the importance of the Hyde Park
Convention. 1t is important because the
Chicago Convention is important. The bust
ness of that National Convention will be no
boys play. Upon its action depends, in a
great degree, the future prosperity, if not the
very existence of the Republican party, in
terests which cannot be confded to a collec-
ton of mere log-rollers and wire pullers.-
The best and ,oisest men of the Party should
be there, and in order to the selection of such
the preliminary conventions must be of SINH
lar material. Sound, trusty, sensible Repub-
licans, should be sent by the towns to Hyde
Park, and with selections made by Con-
vention composed of such we shall all be sat
i.fed.
There is another consideration to be
thought of. The attempt to force the Dis
trict Committee to abandon The delegate sys-
TEN, in calling this Convention, will undoubt-
edly be followed by an attempt to make the
District Convention instruct its committees
to call no more delegate conventions. We
trust that the delegates from this county will
90 prepared to oppose any such move. Our
county has deliberately adopted the delegate
system as the only fair, equal, and practical
Bile mode of procuring a representation of
the People, at our no minating conventions,
aud we trust that its representatives will. at
Hydepark and everywhere, resist any attempt
to take the back track, on that question.

CONGRESS.
WAsHTNGTO

WASHINGTON, April T.
SESArE.-The bill to grant S25, CG0 "a,
five years to the public schools, was taken %.
Mr.. Clark offered an amendment tina:
portion should 60 toward the education d
the colored population. This excited sOas
debate.
Mr.. Brown was willing the free negroes Z
the district should be educated in their 5Es
schools, and to authorize them 10 tax them
selves for the purpose. He would 20 further.
and say, if the Northern people would let the
slaves alone he would favor the education Of
the slaves. But for the interference Of the
North, this would have been done long ago.
They gave their blacks a religious education,
and would give them further instruction,
but that northern fanatics take advantage Of
their learning, and make them their own
worst enemies.
Mr.. Mason opposed the amendment. He
thought it was wise policy on the part Of
of the Southern States TO withhold educlti0n
from the slaves. Negroes, bond or free, form
no part of our political society.
Mr.. Wilson said that, Whenever the Re
publicans resist the expansion Of slays-7.
they had lectures from the other side On IL
equality of races. The North don. So
black men and sell them for fear Of .lsr
equality. The North was not unwilling .
permit blacks 70 learn TO read the B.bls
Mr.. Iverson said it was not true that slavas
were not allowed to learn TO read Ihs7
were not allowed to learn to write. for that
would be dangerous.
Mr.. Wilson, am sorry the Senator d1n't
understand the laws of his own STATE I
have the laws of the Southern States my
room, proving what say, and viii proi1,s
them here.
Mr.. Davis inquired whether Mr.. WilS-
believed in the equality of all men, bl.ck Z
white?
Mr.. Wilson rerlied so far as natuTal-iztz
are concerned, he did. In mental and vdg-
steal characteristics, he believed the Atrlcs1
race inferior 70 the white race.
Mr.. Davis-Does he mean in social an
political rights, in political and socl
equality, for what right means is a thing
be determined afterwards.
Mr.. Wilson, believe every human beng
has right to his own life, liberty and .
act so as to secure his own happiness. Il
other words, believe the Declaration OF Il
dependence, precisely and exactly.
Mr.. Harlan asked Mr.. Davis if he believe.
in the equality of every citizen Of the Unie-
States. He alluded TO some of Mr.. Wilson,
remarks as being offensive. and said ini'
Senator spoke on his own responsibility.
Mr.. Wilson disclaimed any intention o.
giving ofense, but said. while he regaF1A
duelling as barbarous code, he should no'
shrink from uttering his sentiments tree!
here or elsewhere, and accept the t1- ~
possibility.
Mr.. Davis said, a, the Senator disclai1S
the intention to give ofense that was Hi7a'
ent.
Burlington free press. [volume] (Burlington, Vt.) 1827-1865, 1860-04-20

In the Senate on Tuesday, Mr.. Sumner
laid before the United States Senate the me-
mortal of Mr.. Sanborn respecting the late
brutal attempt to kidnap him by the Deputy
Sergetnt-at-Arms of that body. The case
was postponed till the return of the process.
HOUSE, WEDNEsDAY.-The bill to admit
Kansas as a State was resumed Mr. May
nard of Tenn. (American) moved that it be
recommitted to the committee on territories,
with instructions to limit the boundary so as
to exclude all lands belonging to the Chero-
kee Indians this, he said, we owe to the
American character and our treaty faith with
this tribe
Mr.. Gooch of Mass, made speech den
ing that the people of Kansa, had formed
their constitution in violation of law.
Mr.. Grow of Pa, closed the argument in
favor of the bill. Mr.. Maynard's motion to
recOmmit was disagreed to, and the bill was
then passed l34 to 70.
Mr.. English of Ind, (dem y said, that as
