That body, seme time ago, - passed a hill ter the : paeification of ,Kansas, so just and so equita ble that 110 fair of jectiors can be made against it. It provides for the admission of Kansas' as, a State, with such a Constitution as the people themselves shall choose to have ; shad that the rote upon it may be taken fairly, the .most stringent regulations are made to pie , vent any man.from putting in a ballot who is not a resilient. It provides thatany one who has left the Territory on account of the Pre vious troubles, may return and Vote as if he had not gone away. It. abro g ates all the laws passed: by the Territorial Legislature - complained of by the Abolitionists. No than can .deny (and so far as we know, it never has been denied) that this bill, if passed by the other. House of Congress, would at once setile - the whole difficulty In a manner per fectly fair. Even one of the Abolition Sena tors, Mr. hale,, admitted this, for upon the introduction. of the bill he said,in the Senate: , " l3ut.iir,l do not want to dwell On - that. !subjeet, but to speak a-very few words in ref lerence to. this bill which has been introduced by the Senator from Georgia: I take this occasion to say that the bill, as a whole, does great credit-to the inagnaamity, to the pa s . 1 triotism, and to the. sense pf justice of the 'honorable ;Senator -who introduced. it.

I think ! the bill 'i • almost unexceptionable." . . I Yet the Republican leaders, in and out of Cosigress,. are doing their best to prevent the I passage of this bill.

His blows fall with crushing effect upon the rotten combination carrying the Fremont flag in this section. Thinking to prejudice the publie against him —to make hint odious, and deny to him a hearing, they are engaged in manufacturing, and spreading falsehoods touching his per sonal character--=falsehoods reeking with the odor of malignity, ;and foul as the source from which they ernanate.
