skulking manner in which the Black-Repuir.
lican 8 itre:conducting the canvass in - Illinois :
The whole State of Illinois is in a politi.
cal ferment, such as was never before known.
In every county, almost in every town, In
the day And night time, political meetings
arc held, and a degree of zeal is infused into
them which surprises every one. They
seem to have given themselves np to p o litics
altogether. One thing, however, strikes us
as very remarkable, and Dist is the studied
refusal of the Black-Republicans—the friends
of Fremont - to agree to a public discussion
of the merits of the candidates, or of the
principles of the respective parties.
They have refused, as we learn, to meet
the Democrats in open discussion, but pre
fer to go skulkingithont neighborhoods and
townships, and sferetly instilling into the
minds of credulous people the poison which
this contest has Fenor.ated. Theirsystemof
tactics consists in this felonious, dark-lan
tern policy—in the circulation of printed anti
oral statements of the most inflations char
acter against the people of the South and the
Democracy of the nation.'
When they decline to advocate their claims
befote the people, it may safely be MAIIIIIOI
that they are satisfied of the weakness of
their'cause, and that they will not trust it to
their decision. The friends of the Union—
the supporters of Buchanan and Ilreclunridge
manifest no such timidity. They are be
fore the country everywhere, and ready to
meet anybody on the issues how presented.
If there are any of our cititotiti curious
enough to see k how an Illinois election, caut,

leading feature of t at -Act is the right
therein conferred upon the Rebind and bona

themselves what shall he their own domestic

with the bona fide, ihtention of making 4t
their future residence, were supposed to be
capable of creatingljteir own municipalioi

A doctrine so eminently just should reecho
the willing homage oT every Ameri - can citi

ascertained, the will of the majority must
be the imperative rule of Civil action for ev

ffistory of the world, has made a few feeble

No man. conversant with the state of af
fairs now in Kansas, can close his eyes to
the fact that much civil disturbance has for
a long time past existed in this Territory.
Various reasons have been assigned for this
unfortunate condition of Wain, and muter
one remedies have been_preposed. The
llonsii of RePre4enfatlires of tlnited
States have ignored the claims of both gen.
dome', claiming the legal right to represent ,
the people of this Territory in that body-
The Topeka Constitution, recognized by the
