commencing in the very best age of the Repub- Re. It would have been in 'oppot-lion to to the principle a-bi+t promotes our institutions, and is every =day tarried into practice, that the .peePle 'havo'the right to itelogtte to represen• 7 tattilve, eliesen by themselves, their sovereign power - to tame Constitutions, eimet and perform any other important acts, without requir ing that these should be subjected to their StlbsC. quentapprehation. It would be a most inconvenient limitation of their Onii power, iwposell by the people upon tlkeeeAres,-to exclude them-from exercise g their 4cvordignty, in any lawful. manner they mat - think ilOPhtt. , It is true the people of Kansas might, if -mot' haa 'pleased, have Tegaired the Conven tieri-ite,sithmit *CenSiittttion lo a popttior , i'dte, but this they have not done. The only reinedy, therefore, in this case, is that which 'exists in all other similar cases. If the delegates who framed itlatiltansas Constitution have, in any manner, + - violated the will of their constituents, the pee :pie always possess the. power 'to change their Constitution or laws according to their own pleas ure. • The question of slavery was inbmitted to the election of the people. of Kansas oti the 21st of Decereper - last; in obedience to the mandate of the donatitution. Here, again, a fair opportuni ty was prbsented to the adherents of the Topeka fCeeuitift*tion; if they wers in the majority, to *de thisurseiting question, "in their own way;" •madfilius restore peace to the distracted Territo nryt 4lut they again refused the 'right of poplitar -sotfrielghtY, and again suffered the'eleetiOn to Tags in defailt. ' • . I heartily rejoice that a wiser ana hotter spirit - prevalled gracing a large majority-et these people on the first Monday, of January, anti that they.did that, day vottr under the Lectimpton Constitution, for Governor and eller State officers; 'member of Congress, and member ef the Legislature. This elution was warmly contested by parties, and a largerirciti was polled than at any previous elec. .tionliv the Territory. - We may now reasonably lhopaithatthe revolutionary Topeka org,anization usaarhe'apeedilY and finally abandoned, and this will 'go far towards the final settlement of the un happy difference in Kansas. If frauds have heed committed at this election, by ono or both parties, rtho•legialature and the p3eple of ICansas, under their •Constitution, know ho : a to redress them selves, 'art& punish these tletdstabte, but too com mon crimes,.. without outside interference. iThe pee 1e of Kansas ban, then, "in their own - welt,;' 'and in strict . accorilanm with the organic act, franked `a Constitution and State Government, luive submitted the all-important question or Oa vary.terthe people, and have elected a governor, mereher o£ Congress, members of the State Legis and other State 'officers. They now ask foradmission into the Union, under this Consti tutiont which is republican in its form. for Congress to depide whether they will admit or re ject the State whiel has thus been created., For Infown part, I am decidedly in rarer of its nd miseion, and thuS terminating the Kansas ques tion; This Will carry out the great principle of noniinteivention' reeogniied and .. sanctioned by the gamic' act, Which declares, in express lan guage;,in favor of . the'"noia-intervention of Con gress With slavery in the States and Territories," flee.ving'"the people perfectly free to limn' and doineAle ithltitutions in their own waYonbjectonly to the Conititution of the Unit ed' §tates:" In this manner, by localizing the quOstion of slavery, and 'confining it to the peo ple who are immediately concerned, every patriot expected this question to be banished from the hallenf 'Congress, where it has always exerted a baleful influence throughout the country , ;tialireper that ',should refer to the election !held, under the oat of the Territorial Legislature, .on'the fait 'Monday in'Jinuar:,•, on the Lecomp •deti Constitution. This election, held after the Territory had' boon prepared for admission into the Union as a sovereign State, and when no au thofity existed in the Territorial Legislature which'• coal(' possibly destroy its existence, or change its character, the election, which Was pest:fiefnlly conducted under my iustructions, in- Totved . it Strange inconsistency. A large majori ty of the persons who voted aga:nst the Lecomp ton.Censtitution- were at the same time and place recognising its valid existence in the most solemn aaa authentic manner, by voting under its pro visiotts. I have, as yet, received no official infor mation of , the result of this erection. Xs a question of expediency, after the right has hien maintained, it may be wise to refloat upon the ininefits to Kansas and the whole Union which would result _from its immediate admission Into the Union, as well as the disaster which may fol low' its 'rejection. Dorneztie peace will be the happLejonsequence of its admission, and that fine Territory, hitherto torn by dissensions, will:rap idly increase in population and wealth, and spec dilyjealize the blessings and comfort which fol low agricultural and mechanical industry. The people then will be sovereign, and can regulate their own affairs in their own affairs in their own way. If the-materity.of them desire to abolish do meitio,ilavery within the State, there is no other posaible mode by which it can be effected so spec dity as by its prompt admission. -The will of the majority is supreme and irresistible, whtn ex preeeed orderly in a lawful manner. ft can un make - COnetitutions at pleasure. It would he ab surd to say they can impose -fetters upon their own power which they cannot afterwards remove. If they do this, they might tie their own hands for t a hundred as *ell as for ton years. These are. the, finidamenttd'prineiples of American freedom, andYeiegnised in some form by every State Con stilationl and if 'Congress, - in the act of admis sitiii,ddieuld think proper to recognise them. I can, perceive no objection. This has been dune .ereplisiti C ally in the Constitution of Kansas. It dechlies, in the till of rights, that "all political peiyer ii inherent in the people, and all free. Gov ammo' nts.ire founded on their authority and in stituted-for'their benefit., and therefore they hare Itt times the inalienable and indefeasible right tenger; reform,. or abolish their form of Govern. meal;in Each manner as they may think proper." The great - State of New York is at this moment governedpudor' a Constitution framed in- direct opindkon.kc the mode, prescribed by the previous Consittuttorn- .If, therefore, the prevision °hang,- Means Xmiims Constitution, after the year ISG.I, coal : by any 'passibility be construed - into the prohliigen to. make 'such change previous to the peciod or prokiStion, it would be wholly unavail ing.,:The-Levis:tore already elected, may at its fink cession, submit the question to the rote of the people, whether they will or not hare a Con vention to amend their Constitution, and adopt all necessary means for giving effect to the popu larwill. ithas been solumuli adjudged by the highest judicial tribunal that shivery exists in Reuses by virtue.of the Constitution of the United States.— Kansas is therefore at this moment as much a slave, State as Georgia or South Carolina. With out-filter* equality ;lithe Sovereign States coin posinglthe Union Would. be violated, and the use ankenjoyment of territory acquired by the com mop,. trensure of all the States would be closed against the people and property of nearly half the metsibers of the Confederacy. Slavery can, there • fore, never be prohibited in Kansas except by mealy of, a constitutional provision, and in no etligrjannuer can this be obtained so promptly, if titicasajority of the people desire it, as by ad adueitting i 7, into the, Union under the present Constitution. On. the other hand, should Congress reject the. Constitution, under the idea of affording the dis affected in Kansas a third opportunity to prohibit slavery in a State which they might have done twice before, if in the majority, no man can fore tell:the consequence. .If Congress, for he sake of these-men who refused to vote for delegates to thtgonvention,.when they might base excluded slavery from the Constitution, and who afterwards refnied. to vote on the 21st of December, when thOmight, as they claim, have stricken slavery from the Constitution—should now reject a State because slavery remains in its Constitution, it is manifest that the agitation upon this important subjeot wfll be renewed in a mere alarming form thanltlms ever assumed. riery„.,patriot in the country Lad indulged the hoPO, that the Kansas - Nebraska . act would put a thvilentl to the slavery agitation, at least in Con gress, which had fur more than twenty years con vtilzed.the,country and endangered the Union.— Tliisliet involved groat and _fundamental prittoi plits.,•aed,,if fairly carried Into effect, will settle the,q.nestion.
