that they may issue call for the people to
assemble at their usual place of voting, to
elect delegates to the above named conven-
ton. Fellow citizens be not duped by these
designing men. They may issue their call
under the deceptive caption of CONSTITUTION

purpose of hiding their IL ltra purpose of de-
stroying this Union. We warn you Of their
Vaccinations, and advise you to have moth

the polls-cast no vote in the ballot box with
them, and diSsuade your friends from taking
part in their reasonable designs. Patriotism

Fruitful of interest as has been the week
just closed in its relatives to the Crisis, the
one upon which We have just entered bids
fair to surpass it in the magnitude Of the is
sues which is to decide.
The most ardent lover OF peace could not
fail to be cheerful by the words of wisdom
nf prudence and of Cancellation which mark
ed the proceedings Of the debate ON the pen
ding propositions.
Great emergencies, We are told, conduce to
the development Of great genius. The past
epochs of our National Crisis show that in
the ratio Of the danger has been the forget
fulness of self by those who have le,! Ills to
peace and tranquility. Nor is History less
instructive and admouitory in showing that
their acts have never yet failed to win that
approval and hearty Endorsement at the
hands Of the people which is the surest
pledge of enlightened wisdom and genuine
conservatism.
The Bill admitting Kansas into the Fed
cral Union finally passed the House on Mon
day last and was approved by the President.
Thus another star is to be added to our al
ready dazzling constellation. Kansas which
has gone through such 6ery tribulation and
been baptiscd in blood is at least a sovereign
and independent state and may put on airs
of secession tomorrow if the doctrine of the
Cntton States be worth anything By this
| act of admission ono great element of strife
has been removed from the arena Of political
discussion her wounds have been assuaged
her wrongs have been rghtod, and we shall
no more hear Of BLEEDING Kansas" Her
Representative in the person Of Martin f.
Conway, formerly Of Baltimore, was sworn
in on she same day the House was notified Of
the approval of the act by the President.
A COMMITTEES of five from Boston, headed

men as Rob't c. Winthrop and Amos A.

tative Hon. Alex. H. Rice a petition in favor

Thus far, The speech Of tie Session Is that
Of Charles Francis Adams Of Mass. made on
Thursday. Hitherto regarded as among the
most radical Of anti slavery men-the can
didates for Vice President on the ticket with
Van Buren, in '4s, it only needed that he
should he made to feel that the Union was in
danger to develop his attachment to it, his
willingness to concele and compromise for it
and the exhibition OF intellect, sagacity and
craftsmanship for its preservation rarely
equalled and perhaps never surpassed. The
worthy son Of a peerless ancestry, the lineal
descendent Of two Presidents. tho mantle OF
the mighty dead was upon him and nobly
lid he adjust its folds about him, Everett
and Winthrop sat near him, attentive listen
ers. and at its close warmly congratulated
him and appreciated the sentiment of tie
magnificent orator, worthy Of the favor of
Massachusetts greatest statesman.

Of Texas was able and conservative, aud ell

| 1t is understood that the previous question
will be called about Wednesday and bring
the House to direct vote upon the Report OF
the Committee of 33 and the various suhsti-
tutes ard amendments to it. The prospect
Of the passage OF the Corwin Report has
much improved by the delivery Of the
speeches referred to. Mr.. Davis of Md. will
take part in the closing hours of the debate
and will bring to it all his great powers Of
analysis, reason and eloquence in support of
the "Corwin plan" which he had very large
share in inauguratng and perlecting.
