free to form and regulate their domestic in
stitutions in their own way, subject only to
the Constitution of the United States." .In
this manner, by tocal4ing the qUetition of stay
. ery and confining,it-to the,,people who are
-iimediately concerned,- every 'patriot expected
this question fo be banished 'froth tite halls of
cougtess, where it has always 'elated a bale=
fill influence throughout the coi:Lift.'
.It
droner thatirtionid refer to the election held
Oder the actiof the Territorial _Legislature,
the l first Monday in January, on • file IA3-
- d o mpton Constitution. this election was
held after the Territory had beed prepared for
admission into tbe Union as a sovereign State,-,
and when. no arttlßiritvexiSted in- the Terri.,
torial legislature,,wilich could possible de-.
stroy its existence' or change its character.
The election, which waspeacefully conducted
undo my instructions, involved a strange in
'consistency. A large matoritr of the persons
who voted against. the Lecoiriptcin Constitu
tion, were, at the same time and-place, recog
' nizing• its valide existence in the most sol
emn .and authentic,,tnanner; by voting under
its provisions. I have as yet received no offi
cial information of the result of this election.
As - a que-stion of expediency, after 'the right
has been maintained, it may be wise fo reflect
r pon the benefits to Kansas- and to rbe s w &We
Union, which would result from its imme
diate admission into the Union; as well is the
'disisters which may follow its rejection. Do
mestic pear-- will be the'happy consequence
of its admillsiOn, andilat fine Territory, hith
erto Von by dissensions, - will
rapidly increase
in population, and wealth,and speedily realize
the blessings and comfort which follow ..agri
cultural and tnechanical industry. The people
then will be soverdign" and can regulate their
own affairs in their own way; if the majority
of them delire to .abolish domestic slavery
within the State, there is no other possible
mode ply-which it can be effected so speedily
as 'by its pro pt admission. The will of the
.majority is supreme and irresistible, when ex
pressed order?)• aid- in 'lawful' manner. It
'can unmake Constitutions at pleasure. It
• would' be absurd- to say they cart impose fee
ters upon their owitliower,•which they cannot
afterwards remove. If. they
. could - do this,
- they might tie their own bands for in hund
red as for ten years. These are the funda
mental - principles of American, freedom, and
recognized in some form by every State Con
stitution, and if Congress in the act of ad
',mission should • think proper to , recognize
them, I can [fereeive no objection. This has
been done,emphatically in the Constitution of
Kansas. It declares in the bill of Rights, that
- "all political power is inherent in the people,
;.
and all free governments are founded on their
authority and instituted for their, benefit, and
.
therefore,. they have at all times the inalienae
tile and ind'eteasible. right to alter, reform or
abolish their form of government, is such
manner as they rimy -think proper," ''he
great State of New 'York is at 'this Moment.
. governed 'under a Constitution framed in di
t2ct opposition to the mode prescribed by th
previous Constitution. -If therefore, the pro
vision changing : Kansas 'Constitution_ ,
after the year 186,1; could by ails possibility
he construed into; tie prohibition to make"'
stelt change previous to the period of prohi
••,-reiti.on, it would be wholly unavailing. The
teeislature already elected; _may at- first ;
session; submit the qtiestion to the vote of i
reople, whether they will or not, have a Colie - '
• vention to amend their Constitution, and
adopt all neeessary Means for giving effect to
• the popular -will.
It has beeh solemnly adjudged lq the highe •
. •est Judicial, Tribunal; that slavery exists in
liansas, by virtue of the Constitution of the ;
`Cnitell Sates.--Kansas is therefore, at this'{
moment, a.; much a sirivel.Stare as Georgia or
South .C;trulina. Withont• this, the equality
c4 -- the sovereign States ieomposing the Union
•stnild be violated, and the use and enjoyment
of.Territerv, by the common, tress
ere of all the Suit-es, woi.n be against
. the t.eople and property of nearly half the
'Alen:tiers of the Coufetleratiy; Slavery can
therefore never be prohibited iu Kamias, ex
. iceph by means of a Conetituriteial provision,_
'and in no other •nianner>ean this be obtained
so promptly, if the majority of the people de
sire•it, as by admitting it into the Union,
- under the present Constitution. •
C 1 i the 'other hand, should Congress rejec't
JiterCanstitution, tinder the-idea of affording
the disaffected in Kansas a third opportunity
to prohibit slaireri , itf a State which they
might have done twice before if in the major-'
its', to nian tan foretell the consequences. If
Congress, for the sake. of those`men who re
fu-e1 to vote ter delegates tosthe Convention;
when the3l might have excluded' slaehry from
the Constitution, and who afterwards refused
to '.vote on R, Ist of DeceMbee, when they
might as ihey claim, have et6ken slavery
from the•Constitut ion,. it is manifest that the
agitation upon this important sukject will be
renewed in Iv more alarming - form that it has
ever assumed.
Era's pitriotiri the country had indulged,
the hope &it the Kansas Nebraska act would
put final end to the slavery agitation, at
least in Congress; w.hieli bad for reore than
twenty years convulsed the country, and en
_dangered the Union. This act involved great
and fundamental pintiples i and if fairly car
ried into effect, will settle the question. Should'
the agitation be again revived, should the
people of'the sister States be again estranged'
from each other with more than former. bit
terness, this arise-from a cause, so far as
the interests of Kansas are concerned, More
trifling and insignificant than has 'ever stirred
the elements of a great people into commo
tion. To the people of Kansas the Only prac
tical diffefence between their admission or re
jection, depends siMirly upon the - factovhether
they can themselves more speedily thange,the
present Consvtution i if it does not - accord
with the will of the majority, or fratne a sec
ond Constitution to be submitted to Congress
hereafter, - Even if this were a que.stilzu
mere expediency, and not of right, the small
difference of time,- one way or the- other, is
not of the least importance when contrasted
with the evils which must necessarily result
to the whole country from the renewal of the
slavery agitation. In considering this ques
tion, it should never be forgotten that in pro:-
portion, t,c its insignificance, let the decision
be .what it may, so far may affect the few
thousands inhabitants in Kansas, who have,
from the begin ning, resisted the Constitution.;
and the law7fot `thi, very reason the rejection
of the ,Constitution will be so Much 'bore 1
keenly-felt by the people of fourteen States of
the UniOn ivhere slavery is recognized udder

GlitlITIN, aged sixty-five.
Dr. (Intrns was a native of New Town Conn.,
and practised medicine fur several years in
S.choharie county, N. Y., and for the last twelve
years in Great Bend, Susquchannti county, Pa.•
As a physician he stood at the head of his pro
fession-, and possesued, to an unu s ual degree,
the confidence of his, patients, in a very \ exten- •
sive and laborious.practiv; and being a Chris
tian, he prescribed faithfully and successfully
for - both the body and spiritual disease of thomJ ,
around whdsc sick and dying beds he was called
to administer relief. As a citizen and civil mag
istrAte he held a high place in, the respect and j
esteem of thecommunity in which he lived; while
in the more tender And endearing relations o f
brother, father and husband, he was'greatly
loved for his many virtues and excellencies of
both his head and his heart. In his death the :
prior hate lost a friend indeed.
ltis last lilness. of many months continuance,
was , ori o peculiarly trying and a ffl ictive both to
himself, his family and numerous friends.. All
his organs of speech were so paralized, that his
lips were sealed as in the silence of t ae grave,
and his last.4dieu to his deeply afflicted family
was given by expressive and affecting sighs,
which satisfied all around his dying bed that he
was departing for the "Rest that remains fur
ff
the people cGod." •
Ilis funeral services were full of deep and irn
piessive interest. - The Presbyterian church, in
which they were held, was . crowded to its utmost
capacity, by a sviepathyzing, and a ffl icted com

great loss to them. Con.
