The Committee having retired, Judge WlL
ji.,r being called for, addressed the Convention. !
At tin- conclusion of his remarks, E. O. Goon-1
mm from the committee, itiade the following
rejiort :
luesdrrd, That wc approve the actiou of
;:ic R. publican Convention held at Pittsburg,
~ii the 22d of February last, to consolidate the
imeats of opposition to the extension of Sla
rv into one political party ; and we adopt
> die basis of our political action the principles
then laid down, to wit
], We demand aud shall attempt to secure
•lie repeal of all laws which allow the intro
iitinn of slavery into territories once conse
. rated to freedom, and will resist by every cou
oitutiomil means tltc existence of slavery in
,;i;v of the territories of tlie United States,
i We will support by every lawful means
:r brelltren in Kansas in their constitutional
. id manly resistance to tlie usurped authority
j t!law less invaders, and will give the full
weight of our jtolitieal power iu favor of tin
mediate admission of Kansas to the Union
a free, sovereign, independent State.
Believing that the present national ad
i.iiii.-tratioii lias shown itself to be weak and
hirlilesv. ai.d that its ontiuuaoce iu power Is
e-nti*i* d vrith the progress of the slave powei
' i national *upreniaey, with tlie exclusion of \
•recdorn from the territory, and with increas- j
u civil discord, it is a leading purpose of our
organization to opjtose and overtfirow it.
[bedred, That xve accept tlie issue forced
•ij .'ii us bv the Slave power, and will resist to
11:1? utmost of our abilities, the effort to make
Slavery National ; believing as we do tliat
Freedom is necessary for the virtue, iutelli
gciice and happiness of our posterity, and for
;-ix' perpetuity and progressed our country and
its institutions.
Hfsilr-fl, That in the attempt now making
to force Slavery upon the settlers of Kansas bv
the General Government, with the aid of tlie
arm- of the country, we recognize a portion of
:r scheme which seeks to make the "peculiar
institution " an offspring of <our Constitution.
licsclml, That our warmest sympathies are
cxti-mled to the noble band in Kansas who are
rioting, with a patriotism ami bravery wor
• iy of the men of the Revolution—the us ho
ly utti'ii i t to plant in that Territory the curse
i f Slavery, in defiance of solemn compacts, of
the will of actual settlers, and of the dictates
of humanity and justice.
llrsdcrd, Tlatt Hon. <1!. A. Gnow, in his
C'liLTif.-ioiird course, has faithfully reflected
the sentiments of liis constituents. By his able
"" ; ! eloquent vindication of the principles of
F lom ; and by his bold and earnest advo
cacy of the rights of the Free Settlers in Xan
- • lie has earned for himself the warmest
'k- .f hi> (MnstitiTcm-y. His selection for
' ! eh vated and resjwnsiljle positiou he now
was due alike to his high Congressional
r, j ntution, and his consistency and devotion
to the cause of human rights.
I ••silted, That we approve of the hcgisla
course of our Representatives, and bear
M;n;onv t 0 their ability and usefulness.
hcsclrfd. That Ulysses Mcrcur be rcconi
tnonucii as Delegate from this Congressional
' '-strict to the Republican National Conven
tion.

Affairs in Kansas.
ST. LOT IS, Apfil 29. —The St. Louis Demo
crut publishes H letter from Kansas dated the
29th, which says that while sheriff Jones was
sitting in a tent of soldiers, he was shot by a
party outside, and dangerously wounded.—
Jones had made twelve arrests duriug the day,
assisted by a company of dragoons. Much ex
citement prevailed in regard to the affair.—
The perpetrator was unknown. Tlie situation
of Sheriff Jones was very critieai.
The congressional investigating committee
commenced its sessions at Lawrence on the
23rd instant.
ST. LOUIS, May 3, 1860.
The Republican's West port correspondent
has received a letter from Dr. M'Kee, the phy
sician of Sheriff Jones, dated the 29th nit.,
which says that the symptoms of the Sheriff
are favorable, aud that hopes are entertained
of his recovery also, that Col. Sumner ar
rived at Lawrence tlie day before, with his
whole coram a luf, and severely threatened the
people for firing the tent of his lieutenant.
Gov. Robinson charged the act on the Pro-
Slavery party. Col. Sumner denied this, and
said if things were left fo him lie would quick
ly settle tlie matter.
The correspondent of The Democrat writes
that Sheriff Jones removed from Lawrence to
Franklin on the 24th, accompanied by Messrs.
String-fellow and Whitfield, who said they dax
, ed not remain in Lawrence
| Mr. Striugfellow went before the Cominit-
I tee of Investigation and demanded if lie had
j the right to appear himself or by counsel to
introduce testimony, examine witnesses. &c.
Mr. Howard, Chairman, refused the demand
on the ground that the object of the Commit
tee's coming would thereby be defeated, as
the result would not be ail investigation on
their part, but an inqnisitvon by everybody,
i The sanie letter states that the Deputy-
Sheriff of Douglas County is having writs is
-1 sued for the arrest of 100 citizens of Lawrence,
charged with the commission of crime under
the Territorial Jaws.
A standing army will be stationed a£ Law
rence until ail the arrests are made. The pri
soners will be conveyed to Lecompton.
Doujlas' Donation.
In respect to the gift of Douglas to the
Baptist denomination of Chicago, valued at
$50,000, we find in the Chicago Democrat of
Saturday, the following explanation :
This is the old story which Douglas lias set
afloat several times liefore.
Douglas owns a large tract of land ahout
half a mile south of the city limits, arid to in
crease its value, has tried to give away these
ten acres several times before.
Speculators in land know how to do these
things The expenditure required would great
ly enhance the value of what remains of his
tract.
Douglas offered it to the Presbyterians, but
they were persuaded tlu.it they could do better
elsewhere.
The value of the land we sec Is set dowu at
$5,000 per acre. We have sixty acres in the
vicinity, cqaUy as well located, for which we
should like to get $'2,000 an acre, which is
about a fair price for laud in that neighbor
hood.
But Douglas expects that if splendid build
ings arc erected there, that balance will be
brought up to $5,000 per acre, and thus lie
will make a nice speculation out of his " liber
ality."
It is to he called the" Douglas University,"
says his pap.et. Perhaps so. Nothing would
more Surely kill it before it is alive*!
It is also stated that subscriptions to the
amount of sloo,ooo for the erection of the
buildings have been made. If so, our Bap
tist friends have, in this, done enough for Doug
las., witlhout giving a " crushing" name to the
Institution.
But we infer from Douglas' want of success
previously in giving away this land under the
conditions he imposed, that it has not now
been accepted ; but that it was thought the
announcement would make a nice item j'ust
before the Cincinnati Convention.
ANOTHER BATTLE WITH FLORIDA INDIANS.—
The Florida papers contain an account of an
other engagement between I . S. troops and
about 100 Indians. The hitter were put to
flight, but their loss is unknown. On the part
of the troops the loss was Private John Siniius
Co. L, 2d Art'y, mortally wounded, (survived
about fifteen minutes ; Corporal Joseph Car
s HI, Privates John Muller, John Strobel, Co.
C, 2d Art'y, and Thos. Newton, Co. L, Ist
Art'y, severely wounded, and Privates Silas
M. Watkius and Wm. Abbott, Co. C, 2d
Art'y, slightly wounded. Several received
shots in their clothing and haversacks.
