Does this Congress ex- 1 pea to bind the next upon such a subject ? Has not the repeal of the Missouri Compro mise taught the country 'that one Congress can -make no laws which another cannot re peal ? The people.of Kansas understand this matter perfectly and will not be influenced in the least in voting_ upon the Lecompton Constitution, by this empty threat of exclud ing them threel or four years longer from the Union. The Exclusion of Kansas, in case she re jetts this Lecompton Constitution, - is a gross violation of fairness and of decency. it is simi,ly a marked and emphatic discrimina tion againstfreectom. It offers a bounty, for a Slave Constitution, and inflicti penalties upon the people if they' reject it. The bill proyides that delegates to a new Convention shall 'not be elected until the population "is ascertained by a census duly and legally tak en," to he sufficient. The Territorial Legis lature wiff-Ofeourse, have the right to order this census taken; and according to present appearances a new application, even under this law, would not be long delayed. But it is quite-- certaln that the people or Kansas will mit wait for this cuntingi'ncy. The whole Democratic Party' has decided, in the case of the .Lecompton Constitution, that no enabling act is necessary—that the forma - - tion of a Cotrstitution, and application foy ad mission under it, are acts of - the sovereignty vested in the people themselves. . The peo ple of Kansas will act upon _this principle, and thus keep' up the agitation,Which the Administration professes to deprecate and which this bill is ostensibly designed to 'ter minate. • • There is one other abstract point which merits attention at the bands of these strict .constructionists who have insiited that Con gress had no right to go beyond _the Ciinititi tution of a new State ; or to make any condi tions of her admission. They are. here pro posing-to make the admission of Ketoses de• ti r et tne enatiicler of the Consti tution, not upon the will of the people in ?e -gard to it, not upon anything in any way con nected with it--but upon the question whether they will take certain public lands ; or not. This is a precedent which it may not be quit: safe for the Pro Slavery' Party to establish. The whole scheme, though showy and on the surface ingenious, is shallow and worthless. If carried, it will neither help-its - friends nor hurt its foes. A more shamelessly .unprinci pled, and at the same time more imbecile measure has never been submitted to Con gress. It will not make Kansas a Slave State, nor can it prevent or delay its becom ing a Free'State. It will killits authors and damage its friends, and if, they succeed in de. feating it, its enemies will reap all the polit ical advantage it could ever confer upon any body. !uld be r been Has .
