only to prevent the spread of the in.
itutimi tit slavery ilito the present or

kr,. really inflamed with desire to
rnange the doinestic institutions of
seitstiiio States. To accomplish their
ohjk..et, they dedicate themselves to the
pdious task of deprepiating . the govern

scan, and of calumniating with intlis

They seek an object which they well
know to be a revolutionary one. They
pre perfectly aware that the change in
tile relative condition of the white and
black t aces in the slaveholding Mates,`
which they wish to promote, is beyond
their lawful authitrity ; that to them I
it is a foreign object; that it cannot be
effected by any peaceful. instrumental
ity of theirs ; that fur them, and the
States of which they are citizens, the
only path to its accomplishment is
through burning cities, and ravaged
fields and slaughtered populations, and
ell there is most terrible in foreign com
plicated with civil and servile war;
and that the first step in the attempt, is
the forcible disruption of country em=
bracing in its broad bosom a degree
of liberty and an affirunt of individual
end public prosperity to which there is
-p o , parallel in history, and substituting
its place hostile governments, driven
at once and inevitably into mutual de

Nov. 2:1, 1356.
GP' 'no last annual message of
President Pierce. was delivered to
Omigress on Tuesday of last week. It
is too long for our little sliest.: We
give an extract. This document is
more like a campaign partisan speech
than a President's address to Congress:
About half of it.ii devoted to Kansas
affairs, and is as one-sided as the Most
fuss y _larder 4:l%in could desire. We
are gratefnl tbut such a President has
but a few weeks in ire, to servo. It
does seem as if any change must be
fur the better.
OP It does a Buctianati man as much
good to hear of a. poor ign (want man .
voluntarily returniii4 to slavery, as it
does a man with t heart in his bosom
to hear of some bravo fellow escaping
from it. Siich a man will devote a
whole column to giving extt acts,from .
S.lathern prints about such return, but
cannot give a square in relation to the
true state of affairs in Kansas. • .

number, now that the whole. State is

In Massachusetts, and we believe

State every colltdu should have one.

as the whole State taken together ; yet
she will have no Representative; wider
the present Constitution, and unless
the number of members is inureaiied,
-or our ratio inarease shouYE improve,
we hitall never have a member,
There are at leas[ three other coun

waytn promote the presperity of new

cannot affect the populous comities,
but it would greatly benefit the new.

Tho EITog of those Enonnau4 Frornoat Itta,
jorittes
Several of the Southern pipers are
unable to control their uneasiness at
the surprising majorjties of the Re
publicans in nearly all the Free States.
The Richmond Inqmirer dolefully asks:
"Is there anything in the rentit of the re
cent election, to encourage the hope Chit
Abolitioninn is I-sing its credit and power
with the people of the North !" •
- In reply to this the ISetroit Free
Fres:, the
. leading Buoloinanpaper of
Michigan, after stating the fruits of
repealing the Missouri C.l.onpromise,
as shown by the mitt ages in Kansas,
says:
%Vas it strange there it that the Northern
public mind should become exasperated T We
do not held the South responsible for the
original Missonri irrnotion into - Kansas, and
for the scandalous legislation. of the Kansas
I l egistature. The Smith is not responsible
for it any more than the North is responsible
for this operations of Alitaiunisin in Kinsas.
But had the Southern lieinocratic statesmen
condemned the Missouri irruption in langit.ige
not to he misunderstood. and had they de
nounced the attempts then and since to ititrci
mince slavery into Kansas by force and fraud,
the Fremont in ijorities would hive been very
much less in the Northern States.
There is much truth in this pare-,
graph, and yet it shows the dimgliface
ail ove r. Why ask the Southern
Buchanan press to denounce 'the con
duct fif the Border Ruffians, until the
Northern papers have set the example?
Net a single Buchanan paper in Penn
sylvania, so far as we know, 0 con
demned the Missciati irruption," ex
cept in milk-and-water terms that
meant nothing. And as for the milt-dors
arid house.b.urnings, annul destrotiim
of printing presses, and sacktn,g
towns, they never noticed such little
matters. 'Whey eyen made fun.of these
outrages, and sneered at " Bleeding
Kansas," and 0 shrielts.for Ft:eadoM,"
as if they really sided With the Border
Ruffians.
We commend this paragraph of the -
Free Press to the Warren Ledger and
other I:storthern Buchanan papers. If
the Republican majorities aro to be

Mints in the Oreeiltates; mtist speef i lily 1
