To the Editor of the " SWIM":
Dear:Sir: in'yOni . paper . ' of 'Monday
last - , in rau 'article headed 44 Walker
,s
UstirPatlon," I observe the fullewing par
agraph: .
i .44 But we are! . told "that-Runter and
MaSon,:and . other distninguished South
ern Senat'orin the debate on theNehrai ,
ka-Kansas'`-bill, expressed the fame opin ,
ittnrsitat Kansas must be a free; state,"&e:
I. cannot undertake to say What opin
ions may have beat expressed by My
honored colleague, Or - by other Senators
.from the• South, in reference . to the prob-.
able condition of Kansas ; : though, from a
general knowledge of their, views in rii
prd,to 'that territory, I should not doubt
that any opluious•so.. expresSed would
have reference to circumstances and con
tingsneas necessarily • qualifying them.
To avoid misconstruction, 'however, I
think it prop!. to
,say that'l, never es
t ,
pressed The opinion fling aaeribeti to lie;
becanse I pirver..entertajue4 it. , At the
time the law -passed' organizing the ter
ritorial government, there Were - "few with
Whom I eooeried wlio .did net believe
that the future state- would take its place
• yith those recognising and cherishing . the,
condition of African slavery: There was
at that time,- certainly, every reason to
believe-why this should be ho, and none
Why it should not. The state of Mis
souri, bordering its eastern , frontier, was
slaveholding state, - boldi ng at that time
nest!y an hundred dwusang slaves; and
thew were Oddly held in the border
ekniies.
The saate a Arkansas, adjacent to the
territory on the south, was likewise a
slaveholding state. The soil and climate
o Kansas were adapted to thoSe valuable
OoductS, chiefly hemp and tobaeco, which
give value to slave labor in Missouri;
jlhe proximity'uf its population, with the
attractions of new, fertile and cheap land,
ll!elicved would lead the slave holders in,
Missouri to diffuse themselves speedily
of . er li,'flunms,. and the prohibitory line of
aU being obliterated, there was no
reason why they should nut. • I had no
fekof fir competition in such appropri
ation of the new territory froM any quar
ter. Unfair competition I did not dook
to.
What maybe the result mit° the con
dition of Kassa;:, notwithstanding the
extraordinary and utiscrupulOns efforta of
Northern Aliolitionista to - toren a popula
tion there, I cannot undertake to say.
Nor. will I allude in this place to the new
and unexpected aspect now. 4xhibited of
affairs in that territory, with so much
propriety reprehended, in the 'columns of
the South. " " Whatever May be the
information of others, I' certainly am not
sufficientlyinformed of the - existing state
of thingS in Kansas to form a clear opin
ion one way or the other; yet I will ven
ture to say this much, that If African
slavery be ultimately excluded. from Kan
sai, it will Im-effected by the numerical
force of organized majorities,,: operating
against the usual laws which govern em
igration ; and will present a new and
most instructive lesson to the Southern
States,'
Vctry respectfully, I, am yours,

Senator .Ms34' t on Slavery, -Ili
Ziansas.:.
We ask attention to - the letter of one
of`the ablest of Southern Senators, to be
found in an another cortunt, -
This letter convicts- all the northern
supporterg of the- repeal of the Missouri
Compromise with :duplicity or sthpid
blindness. I It says the general expecta
tion of tho.Se supporting the hill,was, that
it would enable Slaveyy to gpread over
Kansas; and
_he gives unansWerable rea
sons for this belief.
This letter makes another very imPor.
Cant admission which we .commend to;the
LY.coming Gazette and its associates ; and
that is, if Slavery is kept out of Kansas it
will be by the orgaitized emigiatiaU of
freemen passing into the Territory: in such
force as to counteract the legitimate wcirk•
lug of the repeal bill. This fadt
be apparent to _every Rerson iho is willing
to look the truth in the face.
When our, people reflect that SenatOrs
Mason, Toombs, and others of the saine
statup rontrol tIM national adwinistratien,
they will find in this letter the key', to
Weikel's Proclamation agaiust...Lawrenee,
and his sudden. change .of tactics. • .
The slivetiolder4 require — the whole
power of the Government , to be wielded

of the bill repealing. the blissouri Cum

done ppenly and .undOubtedly. Hence
