One year ago the sectional strife between the North and the South on the dapgerous subject of sla very, had again become no intense as to threaten the peace and perpetuity of the confederacy. The application for the ad mission of Kansas se a State into the Unio», ' fostered this unhappy , agitation, and— brought the whole suhject'once snore before Congress. ( It was the desire of every patri ot that such measures of legislation might be adopted in would remove the exenement fron“hra States and confine it to the Terri tory, where it legnitnatel,r belonged Much has been done, I am happy to Ay, toreariln the areetnplislitnent of this object, during the last session of Congress. The Supremo Court of the United Staten had previously decided that all Anterienii cit izens have ad equal right to take into the Territories whatever is held as property under the laws of any of the State., and bold cuehr.ropeety Mars rimier the guardl.ll - of the federal constitution ,tio long as the territorial condition shall remain This iA now a well established posittun, and the proceedings of the last session were ' alone 'wanting to give it preened rtr,,t The principle has been recognized, in qotne. form or other, by an almost unanimous rote of Congress, that a Territory has a right to come into the Pnion either as a free or slave State. according to the will of a majority of people The just equity of all t h e Stat.% has dins been vindicated, and n fru i tful source of dangerous disseriatem anicitg them has heen removed. Vt'hilst such has been the Zwitelicial tr n. dency of your legislative privet (1111W3 outside of Ha mils, their influence has WI where been No happy as within that Territory itself - left to manage and control its on it edam in its, own way, without the pressure of ex ternal intluencv, the revolutionary Topeka organization and all resistance to teenier real government established by Congress have been finally abandoned it a natural consequence that the fine Territory now rip peitit,to be tranquil and pmsperotii, and is attracting increasing thousands of mm= grants to - -Rake it their happy borne.

A wiser and better spirit weird torl: vail before the first Monday m January last, when an election was held tinder the con lit:Kelm. A majority of the people then trifled Cur a Governor sad other State officer; for a member of Congress, and a member of the Sate Legislature. This election was warmly =Moiled - by the twmpolitroal par— ties hi Kansas, and a greater vote -seta` dtt: ed than at any previous election A large majority of the members of the Legrdattidi elect belonged to that party which had pre viously refused to vote. The anti-slavery party were - thus placed in the' ascendent, and the political power of the State placed in their hands. Had Congress admitted Kansas under the Lecarripten constitution, the Legislature might, at its very first ses sion, have submitted the question to a vote of the people, whether they would or would not havo a ye:wont:ion to amend theirfortsti lotion, either on the slavery or any other question, and nave adopted all neeessary means for giving speedy effect to the will of the majority. - Thus the Kansas (petition would have been immediately mud finally settled. Under these circilmstances, I submitted to Congress the constitution thus 'framed, with an the officers already elected hecoass. 7 to pit the State (lovernment into opera tion, accompanied by a strong reed it menda• thin In favor of the admission of Ka sae as a State. In the coerce of my long p blic . fife I never performed any official act birth, in the retrospect, afforded mo more heartfelt Satisfaction. Its firlinissien cool have in dicted no possible injury on any h men be ing, whilst it would, within a trri .f period, havorestored peace to Kansas am harmony to the Union. to that event , t o slavery question would ere this have be n finally settled, according to the legally :pressed will of a majority of the voters, a d popular sovereignty would thus have been vindicated in a constitutional manner. , With my deep conviction of di hare purtmed no other course. that, as as individual, I had o: opinion, both before and daring' of the convention, in favor of 81 rematsipi; clauses of the eon. = IJELLEFO well its that concerning slavery, to the peo ple. But. acting in an official character, neither myself nor any hilmari antliority the power to rejinige the proceedings of the convention, and declare the constitinipn it hod frnined to be it enlity. To hare done this would have been n 'violation of the Ran nno Nebraska policy act, which kft the pen "perksitly free to and regulate their domestic institutions in their own way, sub- Pet only "to the constitution of the United States." It would equally have violated the great principle of popular sovereignty. at the foundation of our institutions, to deprive the people of the power. if•they thought proper to execute it, of confiding in delegates else ted by themselves the trust of framing a epnatittitten, wlthnut requiring of them to mittret their comditution to the trouble, ex pense and delay of a second election. It would have been in opposition to many pre• eedents m nor history, commencing in the very heat ar,e - nr the repultbe, of the admis sion of TerrihmeN as States into the Anion, without a previous vote of the people ap proving their constitution, It is to be lamented that a question an in signifirant when viewed in its practical ef fects on the people of Kansas, whether de cided one way or the other./Mould hare atonic,' +menexcitement through. out the country. This reflection 'may prove bn he a lesson of wisdom and of warning for our future guidance. Practically considered the question IS simply whether the' peorle , of that Territory should first come into the Caton and then change any prnyhrimin their constitution not agreeable to theipselt cc, or accomplish the very ARM' , 00:10"C by remain• mg out of the Union and fen tning soother constitotion ui aeconlance with their will /1 lii either case, the result would be precisely the same, The only difference in point of tact is, that the object would have been touch sooner attained, and the pacill 'anon of K.Sliqa4 more speedily etTeetiel, had it he, ii admitted as a State during the last session of Congress. My recommendation, however, for the ad• mission of Kansas, faded to meet the appro bation of Congress.

During the session of MG, trivia of the time of Congress was occupied on The question of admitting Kansas under the To peka constitution. Surely it is not unreas onable 4o require—the people of Kansas to wait, lkfore making a third attempt, until the number of their inhabitants shall amount to 83,420. During this brief period the harmony of the States, as well as the great busianss interests of the 'country, demand that the people' of the Union shall not for a third time die convulsed by another agitation on tho Kansas question. By waiting far a short Date, and sot in obedience to law, Kansas will glide into the Union without the slightest impediment. This excellent provision, which Congress has applied to Kansas, ought to be extend ed and rendered applicable to all Territo ries which may hereafter seek admission into the Union.
