SEWARD’S SPEECH. [c O S I X S V S D .3 EA.&I.T SBTTUtHIBT OT JCfNBAJ. Zhe parties differed as widely in tbeir ap pointments, conduct, and bearing; as tbeir prin ciples. The free laborers came into the Territory with money, horses, cattle, imple ments, and engines with energies concentrated by associations and strengthened by the recog nition of some of the Status. They marked out farms, and sites for mills, towns, and cities, and proceeded at once to build, to plow, and to sow. They proposed to debate, to discuss, to organize peacefully, and to vote, and to abide the canvass. The Slave labor Party entered l he Territory irregulariyvfilakedoat possessions, marked them, and CblsDj&ln' most instances, withdrew to the States which they had come, to sell iheir new obJf&isitions, or to re turn and resume them, as cirumstances should render one course or the other expedient. They left armed men in the Territory to watch and guard, and to summon external aid, cither to vole or to fight, as should bo foand necessary. They were fortified by the favor of the Adminis tration, and assumed to act with its authority. Intolerant of debate, ant^- defiant, they hurried on the elections which wtfre to be lo perverted, that nn usurpation sbooUfbe established. They rang out their satnmofis when the appointed time came, and armed bands of pariizan*. from States near nod remote, iovadcu and enlered the Territory, with banners, ammunition, pro visions and forage, and encamped around the polls. They seized the ballot-boxes, replaced the jadges of elections with partisan* of their own. drove away their oppouenta, filled the boxes with as many votcs'oa the exigencies de manded, and, leaving the results to be returned by reliable hands, they marched back again to their distant homes, to celebrate the conquest, and exult in the prospect of the establishment of slavery upoo the soil so long concentrated to Freedom. Thus, in a single day, they become parents of a State without affection for it, nnd childlpas again without bereavement. In this first hoar of trial, the new system of popular sovereignty signally failed—failed bccauso if is impossible to organize, by one single act. in one day, a community perfectly free, periectly sovereign, and perfectly constituted, out of elements unassimilated, unarranged and uncom posed. Free labor rightfully won the day. Slave-labor wrested the victory to itself by fraud and violence. Instead,pf a free Republican government in the Territory, such as popular sovereighty had promised, there was then asd (henceforth a hateftil usurpation. This usur pation proceeded delays and without compunction to disfranchise the people. It transferred the slarij code of Missouri to Kan sas, without stopping-in all cases to substitute the name of the new Territory for that of the old State. It practically suspended popular -elections for threo'yeon, the uaurpjbg turo assigning Ihnt term "for its own members, while it committed all subordinate trusts to agents appointed by itself. It barred the Courts and the Juries to its adversaries by test oaths, ami made it a crime to ibiuk whit cue pleased. and io write aud print whnt one thought. Ii borrowed all the cugiuery of tyranny, buttlic torture, from the practice of tbc Stuarts. The party of free labor appealed to the Governor (Reeder) to correct the false election returns. He intervened, but ineffectually, and yet even for that intervention was denounced by the Administration organs, and, after long and un acceptable explanations, be was removed from ffioe by the President. Tbc new Goveroor i Shannon ) sustained for a while the usurpation, but failed to effect the subjugation of the peo ple, although ho organized as a militia an armed partizan band of adventurers who had Intruded themselves into tho Territory to force Slavery upon the people. Wi.h the active co operation of this band, the paii_> of slave-labor disarmed the Free-State emigrants who had now learned tho necessity of being prepared for self-defence, on the borders of the Territory, and on the distant roads and rivers which led They destroyed a bridge.that free- labor men used io their way to the scat of Gov ernment, sacked a hotel where they lodged, and broke up and cast into the riTer a press which was the organ of their cause. POLITICAL MOVEMEXTS IS THE TERRITORY. The people of Kansas, thus deprived, not merely of self-government, bat even of peace, tranquility, and security, fell back on the un alienable revolutionary right of voluntary reor ganization. They determined, however, with admirable temper, judgement nnd loyally, to conduct their proceedings for this purpose in deference and subordination to the authority of tho Federal Union, nnd according to the line of safe precedents. After due elections, open to all the inhabi tants of the Territory, they organized provision ally a State Government at Topeka; and by the hands of provisional Senators and a provisional Representative, they submitted their Constitu tion to Congress, and prayed to be admitted as a Free State ioto the Federal Union. The Fed eral authorities lent no aid to this movement, but, on the contrary, the President and Benate contemptuously rejected )L nnd denounced it ns treason, and all its actors'and abettors as disloyal to tho Union. An army wns dispatched into tho Territory, intended, indeed, to preserve peace, but at the same time to obey and sustain tho usurpation. The provisional Legislature, which had met to confer nnd to adopt further means to urge the prayers of the people upon Congress, wero dispersed by the army, and the State officers provisionally elected, who had committed no criminal act, were arrested, in dicted, and held in the Federal camp as State prisoners. Nevertheless, the people of Kansas did not acquiesce. The ursurpation remained a barren authority, defied, derided and despised. A national election was now approaching.— Excitement within and sympathies without the Territory must be allayed. Governor Shannon was removed, and Mr. Geary was appointed his successor. lie exacted submission to the stautea of the usurpation, but promised equality in their administration. He induced a repeal of some of thoso statutes which were most obviously uncon stitutional, and declared an amnesty for polit ical'ofFencca. Flo persuaded the Legislature of tbeVusurpalion to ordain a call for a Conven tion at Lccompton to form a Constitution, if the measures should bo approved by a popular vote at an election to be hold for that purpose. To vote at sooh an election was to recognize and tolerate the usurpation, as well as to submit to disfranchising laws, and to hazard a renewal of the frauds and violence by which the usurpation had been established. On no account would the Legislature agree that the projected Constitution should be submitted to the people, after il should havo been perfected by the Convention. The refosal of this justmeasuro, so necessary to the public security in case of surprise and fraud. The Governor insisted on this provision, and de manded of the President of the United States the removal of a partial and tyrannical jadge. He failed to gain either measaro, and incurred the displeasure of the usurpation by seeking them. He ded the Territory. Tho Free-State Party stood aloof from the polls, and a canvass showed that some 2,800 less than n third of the people of the Territory had sanctioned tho call of a Convention, while the presence of tho army alone held the Territory under a forced truce. ILBOTIOV or MR. DDCHANAH—THE DEED SCOTT DECISION. At this janctare (be new Federal Administra tion o&rne in, under a President who had obtain ed sucoess by the intervention at the polls of a third party—an ephemeral organization, built upon a foreign and frivolous issue, which had just strength enough and life enough to givo to a Pro-Slavery Party the aid required to produco that untoward result. The new President, under a show of moderation, rnaskod a more effectual Intervention than that of his predecessor, In favor of slavo labor and a Stave State. Before ooal&g into ofioo he approached, or was ap* 1 proacbed by, the Supreme Court of the United ' States. I>a their docket was, through some chance or design, an action which an - obscure ; negro man in Missouri had brought for his free -1 dom against his reputed master. The Court ; had arrived at th* juclusion, on solemn argu -1 ment, that, insomu-j as this usfortunato negro ; had,, through some ignorance or chicane in ; special pleading, admitted, what could not havo ; been proved, that he had decendcd from some : African who had once been held in bondage, that . therefore ho was not, in view, of the Constitu j tion, a citizen of the United Stales, and therefore • could not implead the reputed master in the • Federal Courts; and on this ground the. Supreme , Court wero prepared to dismiss the Action for I w aot of jurisdiction over thi* suitor's person, j This decision—certainly as lepagnant to the i Declaration of Independence aud t , il.e spirit of tho Constitution as to the instincts ol humanity —nevertheless would be ono which would pi haust all tho power of the tribunal, and exolude consideration of all other questions that had been raised upon the record. Tho counsel who had appeared tor tho negro bad volunteered from motives of charity, and ignorant, of course, of the diaposiiiou which was to bo made of the cause, had argued that his client had been freed from Slavery by operation of the Missouri pro hibition of 1820. The opposing counsel, paid by tho defending slaveholder, had insisted, in reply, that the famous statute was unconstitu tional. The mock debate had been heard in the Chamber of the Court in the basement of the Capitol, in tho presence of the curious visitors at the seat of Government, whom the dullness of a judicial investigation could not disgust. The Court did uot hesitate to please the incom ing President, by seizing this extraneous and idle foreeuic discussioif, and converting it into an occasion for pronouncing an opinion that the Missouri prohibition was void, and that, by force of tho Constitution, Slavery existed, with all the elements of property in man over man, in all l the Territories of the United States, paramount* to any popular sovereignty within tho Territo ries, and even to tho authority of Congress itself. In this ill-omened act, the Supreme Court for got its own dignity, which had always been maintained with just judicial jealousy. They forgot that the provinco of a court is simply “y'm dicerr,” and not at all "ju j dare." They for got also that one “foul sentence does more harm than many foul examples; for tho last do but corrupt the stream, while the former corrupteth the fountain. ’’ And they and the President alike forgot that judicial usurpation is more odious and intolerable than any other among the manifold practices of tyranny THE PRESIDENT’S PROMISES. The day of InaHgurat’on came—the first one among all the celebrations of that great nation al pageant that was to be desecrated by a coali tion between the Executive and Judicial depart ments, to undermine the NaJionnl Legislature and the liberties of the people. The President, attended by the usual lengthened procession, arrived and took his seaton the portico. The Supreme Court attended him there, in robes, which yet exacted public reverence. The peo ple, unaware of the import of the whisperings carried on between tho President and the Chief Justice, and imbued with veneration for both, filled the avenues nod gardens far away as the eye could reach. The President addressed them in words os bland as those which the worst of all the Homan Emperors pronounced when he assumed the purple. He announced (vaguely, indeed, but with self-satisfaction) the forthcom ing extra judicial exposition of the Constitution, and pledged his submission to it as authorita tive and final. The Chief Justice and his Asso ciates remained silent. The Senate, too, wore there—Constitutional witnesses of the transfer of the Adminn-iralion They 100 wore silent, although the promised usurpation was to sub vert the authority over more than half of the empire which Congress has assumed cotempor* aneously with the birth of the nation, and had exercised without interruption for near seventy years. It cost the President, under the circum stances, little exercise of magnanimity now to promise to the people of Kansas, on whose neck he bad, with the'aid of the Supreme Court, hung the millstone of Slavery, a fair trial in their at tempt to cast it off, and hurl it to the earth, when they should come to organize a Slate Gov ernment. Alas! that even this cheap promise, uttered undvr such great solemnities, was'only made to bo broken' Tho pageant ended. On the oth of March the Judges, without even exchanging their silken robes for courtier*’ gowns, paid their salutations to the President in the Executive Palace.— Doubtlessly the President received ibem as gra ciously os Charles I. did the Judges who, at his instance, subverted the statues of English Liber ty. On the Oih of March the Supreme Court dismissed the negro suitor, Dred Scu't,to return to his bondage ; and having thus disposed of that private action tor an alleged private wrong on the ground of want of jurisdiction in the ca:>o, , -hcy-pro < >«cdeJ, with amusing solemnity, to pronounce the opinion, that, if they had had such jurisdiction, still the unfortunate negro would have had to remain iu bondage, unre lieved, because the Missouri prohibition violates right of general property involved iu Slavery, paramount to theauthority ofCongress. A few •lays later, copies of this opinion were multi plied by the Senate's press, and scattered in the name of the Senato broadcast over the land*and their publication has not yet been disowned by Uio Sonatc. Simultaneously, Dred Scott, who had played the hand of dummy in this interest ing political game, unwitting'y, yet to the com plete satisfaction of bis adversary, wa- volun tarily emancipated ; and thus received from his master, as a reward, freedom which the t'oun had denied him as a right The new President of the Uuited States, har ing organized Ibis formidable judicial battery at the Capitol, was now ready to begin his active demonstrations of intervention in the Territory Here occurred not a new want, but an oIJ one revived—a Governor for Kansas. Ib.bert J. Walker, born and reared in Pennsylvania, a Free State, but long a citizen andre.sident of Missis sippi, a Slave State, eminent for talent and in dustry, duToled to the President and his party, plausible and persevering, untiring and effici ent, seemed just ibo man to conduct the fraud ulent inchoato proceedings of the projected Le compton Convention to a conclusion, by divid rag the friends of-frec labor in the Territory, or ! by casting upon them the responsibility of de ; fealiug their own favorite policy by impractica bility and conlumacy. Ho wanted for this pur : pose only an army and full command of the Ex j ecutive exchequer of promises of favor and of | threats of punishment. Frederick P. Stanton, l of Tennessee, honorable and capable, of persua sive address, but honest ambition, was appoint ed his Secretary. The new ngeots soon found that they had assumed a task that would lax all their energies and require all their adroitness. On the one side, the Slave labor Party were de termined to circumvent the people, and secure, through the Lecompton Convention, a Slave State. Ou the other hamt, the people were watch ful and determined not to bo circumvented, and in no case to submit. Elections of delegates to that body were at hand. The Legislature had required a census and registry of voters to be made by authorities designated by itself, and this duty had been only partially performed in fifteen ofthc thirty-four Counties, and altogether omitted in the other nineteen. The party of Slave Labor insisted on payment of taxes an a condition of suffrage. The Frr-' Labor Party deemed the wholo proceeding void, by reason of the usurpation practiced, and of the defective arrangements for the election. They discovered a design tosurprise in the refusal of any guaran ty that the Constitution, when framed, should bo submitted to the people, for (heir acceptance or rejection, preparatory to an application un der it for the ndmisßion of Kansas into the Cnion The Governor, drawing from the am- plo treasury of the Executive at bis command, mndf> duo exhibitions of tbo army, nnd threat ened the people with on accepLanco oftho Lc coinpton Constitution, however obnoxious to them, if they should refuse to vote. With these menaces, ho judiciously mingled promises of fabulous quantities of land for the endowment of roads' and eduootion. Ho dispensed with the te.-»t oaths and taxes, lamented the defects of census and registry, nnd promised the rejection of the Constitution, by himself, by the Presi dent and by Congress, if a full, fair and com plete submission oftho Constitution should not be rnado by the Convention ; nnd he obtained and published pledges of such submission by tho party convention which nominated the can didates for delegates, and even by an imposing number of those candidates themselves. The pcoplo Blood aloof, and refuged to vote. The army protected tho polls. The Slave Labor Party alone voted, and voted without legal re straint, and so achieved an easy formal success by casting somo two thousand ballots. THE LECOMPTON COS3TITCTIO3—TUB PBBurDENT'.S tRTEttVBSTIOS. Just in this conjuncture, however, tho term of threo years’ service which the usurping Le gislature had fixed for its own members expired, aud elections authoriied by Itself wero to bo held, for the choice, not only of new members, but of a delegate to Congress. While the Le compton Convention was assembling, the Free Labor party determinod to attend these Terri torial cleettou*, and contest tbroagh them, for Belf-governmoni within the territory. They put candidates in nomination, on tho express ground of repudiation of tho whole Lecompion proceed ing. Tho Lccompton Convention prudently ad journed to a day beyond the elections. The parties oontended at the ballot-boxes, and the result was a complete and conclusive triumph of the Free Labor party. p or a moment this Yio tory, so important, was jeoparded by the fraad- VOLUME, LXXI-—NUMBER, 171. I ulent presentation of spurioag and fabricated J returns of elections in almost uninhabited dis tricts, sufficient to transfer the triumph to the Slave Labor party, and the Free State party was proceeding to vindicate it by force. The Gov ernor and Secretary detected, proved and ex posed this atrocious fraud. The Lecompton Convention denounced them, and complaints against them poured in upon the President from thellaveholding States. They were doomed from that time. The President was silent. The Le compton Convention proceeded and framed a Constitution which declares Slavery perpetual and irreversible, and postpone any alteration of its own provisions until after 1864, by which time they hoped that Slavery might have gained too deep a the soil of Kansas to be in danger of being uprooted. AlUhis was easy; but now came the question whether the Constitution should besubmittedtolho people. It was confess ed that it was obnoxious to them, and if submit ted, would be rejected with Indignation and con tempt. An official emissary from Washington is supposed to have suggested the solution which was adopted. This was a submission in form, but not in fact. Tho President of the Conven tion, without any laws to preserve the purity of the franchise by penalties for its violation, was authorized to designate his own agents, alto gether irrespectively of the Territorial authori ties, aud with their aid to hold an election, in which there should bo no vote allowed or re ceived, if against the Constitution itself. Each voter was permitted to cast a ballot “for the Constitution with Slavery,'' or “for the Consti tution with no Slavery,” and it was further pro vided, that the Constitution should stand entire, if the majority of votes should be cast for the Constitution with Slavery, while, on the other hand, if the majority of votes cast should be “for the Constitution with no Slavery,” then the existing Slavery should not be disturbed, but should remain, with its continuance, by the succession of its unhappy victims by descent for ever. But even this miserable shadow of a ohoice between forms of a Slave State Constitu tion was made to depend on the taking of a test oath to support and maintain it in the form which should be preferred by the majority of those who should vote on complying with that humiliation. The Governor saw that by conniving at this pitiful and wicked juggle he should both ship wreck his fame and become responsible for civil war. He remonstrated, and appealed to his chief, the President of the United States, to con demn it. Denunciations followed him from the Lecompton party within the territory and the de nunciations no less violent from the Slave States were his greeting at the National CapitaL The President disappointed his most effective friend and wisest counselor. This present Congress had now assembled. The President, as if fear ful of delay, forestalled our attention with re commendations to overlook the manifest objec tions to the transaction, and to regard the anti cipated result of this mock election then not yet held, as equivalent to an acceptance of the Con stitution by the people of Kansas, alleging that the refusal of the people to vote either the ballot for the “Constitution with Slavery,” or the false and deceitful ballot for the “Constitution with no Slavery, “ would justly be regarded os draw ing after it the consequences of actual accep tance and adoption of the Constitution itself. His argument was apologetic, as it lamented that the C onstitution had Dot been fairly submitted; and jcsuitical; os it urged that the people might] when once admitted as a Stale, change the Con stitution at their pleasure, in defiance of the pro-iaion which postpones any change seTen years. STANTON S REMOVAL ANU WALUEtt’s RESIGNATION. Copies of the message containing these argu ments were transmitted to the Territory, to con found and dishearten the Free-State party, and obtain a surrender, at the election to be held on the —I st of December, on the questions submit ted by the Convention. The people, however, wore neither misled nor intimidated. Alarmed by this actof connivance by the President of the Failed States with their oppressors, they began to prepare for the last arbitrament of nations. The Secretary, Mr. Stanton, now Governor ad mtfrvn, issued his proclamation, calling the new Territorial Legislature to assemble, to provide for preserving the public peace. An Executive spy dispatched information of this proceeding to the President, by telegraph, and instantly Mr Stanton ceased to bo Sec retary and Governor ad interim, being re moved by the President, by and with the ad vice and consent of the Senate of the United States. Thos the service of Frederick P. Stan ton came to an abrupt end, but in a manner most honorable to himself. His chief, Mr. Walker, was less wise and less fortunate. He resigned. Pxtus Thrasea (we are Informed by Tacitus) had been often present in'lbe Senate, when the fathers descended to unworthy acts, and did not rise in opposition: but on the occasion when Nero pro cured from them a decree-to celebrate, as a fes tival, the day oo which he had murdered his mother, Agrippina, Pwtus left his seat, and walk ed out of the ohamber—thus by his virtue pro voking future vengeance, and yet doing so Mr* vice to the cause of Liberty. Possibly liobert J. Walker may find a less stern historian. The new Secretary, Mr. Denver, beoame Gov ernor of iianaas, the fifth incumbent of that of fice appointed jrithin less than four years, the legal term of one." 4 Happily, however, for the honor of the country, tkree'flf-ikereealls were made on the ground of the virtuesof* ffcf*JJ&rtfefl disgraced. The Pro-Consuls of the Romanprov?- tnces were brought back to the Capital to answer for their crimes.
