SEWARD’S SPEECH, The proceeding which thelfttetiocroiftr)' Stan ton had so wisely instituted, nevertheless, went on ; and it has become, as I trust, the principal means of rescuing from tyranny the people whom ho governed so briefly and yet so well Tbe Leoompton Constitution had directed that on tho 4th of January elections should be held to fill the Stale offices, and the offices of mem bers of the Legislature and members of Con gress, to assume their trust when !hc now State should be admitted tnio ilie Cuion. The Legis lature of tbe Territory now enacted salutary laws for preserving tbe purity of elections in all cases. It directed the Lccomplon Constitution (0 be submiUod to a fair vote on that day, the ballots being made to express a consent to the Constitution, or a rejection of it, with or with out Slavery. The Frce-L»bor Party, drhoicd anxiously on the question, whether, hnsides voting against that Constitution, they i-liould, under protest, vote also for officers to assume th© trusts created by it, if Congress should admit the Slate under it. After a mnjoriiy had decided that no such votes should be cist, a minority hastily rejected the decision and nom ioated candidates for Ihoso places, lo be sup ported under protest. The success of ihemove ment, made under the most serious di.-a-lvan tages is conclusive evidence of their strengih. While the election held on ibe 21st of December, allowing all fraudulent vote.*, showed «ume sii thousand majority for tbe Constitution with Slavery, over lomo Gvo hundred votes for the Constitution without Slavery, tho election on the 4th of January showed an aggregate majority of eleven thousand against the Constitution itself in any form, with the choice, under pro test, of a Representative in Congress, and of t large majority of all the candidates nominated by the Free-Labor Party for tho various Execu tive and Legislative trusts under the Lccomplon Constitution. J«27:ljd .Jkxto a. aaosß ABOLITION OF SLAVEBT Tbe Territorial Legislature has abolished •Slavery by a law to take effect in March, though the Lecompton Constitution contnin* provisions anticipating, and designed to defeat this great act of justice and humanity. It has organised a militia, which stands readv f.-r the defence of tho rights of the people against any power The President nf ihe Lecompton <’on ventioa has fled the Trrrilory, charged wiiti an attempt lo procure fraudulent returns to reverse the already declared results of the last eh-'lion and he bi-l'-ls tbe public in suspense a.« to hin success until after his arrival at the Capital, and the decision cf Congress on the acceptannc of the Lecomfton Constitution. In the meantime, the Territorial Legislature has called u Conven tion, subject to the populaS approval, to beheld in March next, and to a Const itir ion to be submitted to the people, af4, when adopted, to be ihe orgaoic law of the Stalest K«tnsa>, ject lo her admission ioto tho Union. Ihe I‘rusideot of the United States, having received the Lecompton Constitution, has «übmiued it to Congress, aud insisting that ihe v u u* Ukrn on the juggle of the ]-cc.>mpi.<n 1 ’niivrniion. held 00 the 'Jlst of December, is legally conclusive of it* acceptance by the people, aud absolute against the bur. direct, and unimpeachable re j»*ciion of it by that people made on the 4tli of January last, be recommends aud urge* and implores the admission of Kansas n* a rit.ite into the Federal Uvsioa, under that faleo. pre- Grided, and spurious Constitution. I refrain from any examination of this extraordinary cnes-nge. My recital ».■* less complete than 1 have hoped, if it docs not overthrow ail ihe President's arguments in favor of the accept an«*e of the Lecompton Constitution bv the net of the people of Kansas, howt-'-'- iperimi? and without descending to any de»• ' In Untigrcs* those who Eeck the admission of Kansas under that Constitution, strive l" delay the admission nf Minnesota until their opponents shall com promise on that paramount question This. Mr. President, is ihe concise account of (ho national intervention in the Territories m favor of Slave labor and Slave Stales since i.'ilii'. No wonder that’ the question before un exciter ayprebeosion* and alarms. There is at Inst a North side of (his Chamber—a North side of the Chamber of Representatives— a North side of fbe Union, as well as South sides of all ihe-e. Loch of them is watchful, jealous and re notule If it be true, aa has so oflen been as serted, (hat (his Union cannot survive the dccis iou by Congress of a direct question involving the adoption of a Free St ite, whioh will estab lish the nsceodeney of Free Stales under ihe Constitution, and draw after it Iho restoration of the influence of Freedom in the domestic and foreign conduct of the Government, then the dny of dissolution is at hand. I have thus, Mr. President, arrived at the third circumslanco attending the Kansas ques tion which 1 have thought worthy of considera tion, namely, that the national intervention in the Territories in favor of slnve labor and Slave Stales is opposed to the material, moral, and social developments of the Republic. The pro position seems to involve a paradox, hut it is easy to understand that the checks which the Constitution applies, through prudent- caution, to the relative increase of the representation of the Free States in the Houso of Reprcsenutives, and especially in the Senate, co-operating with the differences of temper and political activity between the two classes of States, tnay direct the Government of the Federal Union in one course, while the tendencies of tbo nation itself, popularly regarded, are in a direction exactly opposite. The ease And success which attended ihe earlier policy of intervention in favor of free labor and Free States, and the resistance which the oonverse policy of intervention in favor of slave labor and Slave States encounters, suffi ciently eßtftbl.sh the existence of the antagonism between the Government and the nation which I have asserted. A vessel moves quietly and peacefully while it descends with the current. You mark its way by the foam on ita track only when it is forced against Iho jido. 1 will not dwell on other proofs—each as the more rapid growth of the Free States, the ruptures of ecclo siaslical Fedoral Unions and the demoralization and disorganisation of political parties now TB? CONTEST CAN DR ENDED. Mr. President, I have shown why it is that the Kansas question is attended by difficulties and dangers only by way of preparation for the submission of my opinions in regard to ihe manner in which that question ought to be de termined and settled. I think, with great de ference to judgments of others, that the expedient, peaceful, aud right way to determine it, is fo rcvtrte the existing policy of intervention in favor of slave labor and Slave Slate*. It would be wise to restore the Missouri prohibition of Slavery in Kansas and Nebraska. There was peace in the Territories and iu the States until that great statute of Freedom was subverted.— It is true that there were frequent debates here on the subject of Slavery, and that there were profound sympathies among the people, awakeo cd by or responding to those debates. But what was Congress instituted for but debato ? What makes the American people to differ from oil other nations, but this, —that, while among them power enforces silence, here all public questions are referred to debate, free debate in Congress? Do you tell mo that the Buprcmo Court of the United States has removed “the foundations of that groat statute ? I reply, that they have done no such thing; they could not do it. They have remanded the negro man Drcd Scott to the can tody of his master. With that decreo we have nothing here, at least nothing now, to do. This is the extent of the judgment rendered, the ex tent of any judgment they could render. Al ready the pretended further decision is subvert ed In Kansas. Bo it will be in every Free State and every Free Territory of the United States. The Supreme Court, also, can reverse Us apu rious judgment non easily tluut we could re TERTIS t [ro,CLt»£ii.] concile the people to its usurpation. Sir, the Supreme Court of the United States attempts to command tbe people of the to ac cept tho principles that one man can own other men, and that tlrey must guarantee the inviola bility of that f± and pernicious property.— The people of thr < ui-ed States never can, and they never will, neerj t principle- unconstitu tional and so abhurrcnt. Never, never Lot the Court recede. Whether it recede or not. we shall rc-organixe the Court and thu* relurci its political sentiments and practices, and bring them into harmonv with the Constitution and with the laws nf nature. In doing so we shall not only re-assutue our own just authority, but we shall restore that high tribunal itself to the position it ought to maintain, -dice many in alienable rights of citizens, ...id even r-f Mu- States ihemHelvc*, Jepend upou i • ;: :'aj and its wisdom. Tin; ;uCTII WILL NOT BEsI Do you nil me that tho Slave States will not acquiesce, but will agitate' 1 Think, first, whether tho Free .Suites will acquiesce in a decision that shall not only be unjust but fraudulent. True, they will not nionnc* the Republic. They have an easy aud simple remedy, namely, to Lake the Government out o' unjust and unfaithful hands, and commit it to those which will be just and faithful. They are ready to do this now. They want only a little moro harmony of purpose and a little more completeness of organization. These will result from only the least addition to the pressure* - of Slavery upon them. You are lending all that is necessary, and even more, in this very act. Hut will the Blare States agitate* 1 Why' 1 Because they have lost at last a battle that they could not win, unwisely provoked, fought with all the advantages of strategy and intervention, and on a field chosen by them selves.

Will they nbt need some fairer and more plausible excuse for a proposition so desperate? How would they improve their condition by drawing down u certain ruin upon themselves: Would they gain any new security for Slavery. Would they uut hazard securities that are invaluable? Sir, they who talk so idly, talk what they do not know themselves. No man when cool con promise what he will Jo when he shall be in flamed; no man inflamed cau speak for his ac tions when tlma and necessity shall bring re flection. Much less can any one speak for Stales in such emergencies. j.aH hOVEHMUXTYTHE UNJ.T BEMCDV NEEDED.

Among all our re finement* of constitutional learning, one princi pie. one fundamental principle, has been faith fully preserved, namely : That the new Stales must come voluntarily into the Union—they must not he forced into it. “Unite or Die,” was the motto addressed to the Stares in the lime of the Revolution Though Kansas should perish, she cannot i»e brought into the Union by force. So long as the Stales shall come in by free consent, their admission will be an act of union, and this will he aUonfedcracy. Whenever they shall be brought in by fraud or force their ad mission will be an act of consolidation, and the nation, ceasing to be a Confederacy,will become in reality an Empire. All our elementary in struction is wrong, nr el.-e this change of Ihe Constitution will subvert the liberties of the American people. • You argue the consent of Kansas from docu mentary proofs, of her forced and partial acqui escence, under your tyrannical rule, from elec tions fraudulently conducted, from her own contumacy and from your own records, made up here against her. I answer the whole argument at once; Kansas protests here, and stands, by your own ronfo«*h>n, in an attitude of rebellion at home, to resist the nntuxat ion which you con tend she is soliciting uL your bands Sir, if your proofs were a thousand times stronger, 1 would not hold the people of Kansas bound by them. They arc all contradicted by .stern facts. A people can be bound by no action conducted in tbeir name, and pretending to their sanction, unless they enjoy perfect freedom and safety in giving that consent. You have held the people of Kansas in duress from the first hour of their attempted organization as a com tnuniiy. To crown this duress by an act, at once forcing Shivery on them, which they hate, aud them into a union with you, on terms which they abhor, would be but to illustrate anew, and on a grand scale, the maxim : ' BiO’jytnvn etfrtix set!m. ciriut toc.i/ur." Mr. President, it is an occasion for joy ami triumph when a communify that has gathered itself together under circumstances of privation and exile, and proceeded through a season of territorial or provincial depeudence on distant central authority, becomes a State, in the full enjoyment of civil and religious liberty, aud rises into the dignity of a member of this Imperial UnioD. But in the case of Kansas, her whole existence ha 3 been, nnd it yet is, a trial, a tem pest, a chaos, aud now you propose to mako her nuptials a celebration of the funeral of her free dom. The people of Kansas are entitled to save that freedom, for they have won it back when it | hod been wrested from them by invasion and usurpation. Sir, you and Strong. On this continent tbero is can resist you. On any other there is hardly a power that would dot reloctantly engage with you; bat you can never, never conquer Kansas. Your power,like a tbrono which is built of pine boards, and cov ered with purple, is weakness, except it be de fended by a people confiding in yon, because satisfied that you are just, and grateful for the freedom iut, under y«o, they enjoy, VOLUME LXXI —NUMBER 172. Sir, in view, once more, of this snbject of Slavery, I submit that oar own dignity require* that we shall give over this champerty with slaveholders, which we practice in prescribing acquiescence in their rule os a condition of tol*. eration of self-goTernment in the Territories. We are defeated in it. We may wisely give it up, and admit Kansas os a Free State, since she will consent lo be admitted only in that char acter Mr. President, if I could at all suppose it de sirable or expedient to enlarge the field of slave labor and of slareholdingsway, in this Republic, l should, nevertheless, maintain that it is wise lo relinquish the effort to sustain 81avery in Kansas. The question, in regard to that Terri tory, has risen from a private one about Slavery as a domestic institution, to one of Slavery as a national policy. At every step you hare been failing. Will you goon still farther, ever con fident, and yet ever unsuccessful? I believe, Sir, to some extent, in the isother mal theory. I think there are regions, begin ning at tbe North pole, and stretching sonth ward, where Slavery win die oik soon if it be planted; and I know, too well, that in the tropics, and to some extent Northward of them, Slavery lives long, and is bard to extirpate. But I can not find a certain boundary. I am sure, how ever, that 36° 30' is too far North. I think it is a moveable boundary, and that every year it advances towards a more Southern parallel. MORI SLAVERY NOT WANTED. Bat is there just now a real want of a new State for the employment of slave labor ? I see and feel the need of room for a new Slate to be assigned lo free labor, of room for such o new State almost every year. I think I see how it arises. Free white men abound in this country, and in Europo, and even in Asia. Economically speaking.-their labor is cheap—there is a surplus of it. Under improved condWions of society, life grows longer, and men multiply faster.— Wars, which sometimes waste them, grow less frcqnent and less-destructive. Invention is con tinually producing machines and engines, artificial laborers, crowding them from one field of industry to another—ever more from the Eastern regions of this continent to the West, ever more from the overcrowded Eastern Conti nent to the prairies and the wilderness in our own. But Ido not see any Buch overflowing of the African s'ave population in this country, even where it is unresisted. Free labor has been obstructed in Kansas. There are, never theless, Oft.ftOO or DO,OOO freemen gathered there already;—gathered there within four year?. Slave labor has been free to import ation. There arc only 100 to 200 slaves there. To settle and occupy a new Slave State anywhere is, pari/>assu, to depopulate old Slave Slates. Whence, then, are the supplies of slaves to come, and how ? Only by reviving the Afri can Slave Trade. But this is forbidden. Vis ionaries dream that the prohibition can be repealed. The idea Is insane. A Republic of thirty millious of freemen, with a free white laboring population so dense os already to crowd on subsistence, to be broaght to import negroes from Africa to supplant them as cultivators, and so to subject themselves to starvation ! Though Africa is yet unorganized, and unable lo protect itself, still it has already exchanged, in a largo degree, its wars tn make slaves, and its com merce in slaves, for legitimate agriculture and trade. All Europeon States are interested in the civilization of that continent, and they will not consent that we should arrest it. The Christian Church cannot be forced back two centuries, and be made to sanction the African Slave Trade as a missionary enfierprise. Every nation has always some ruling idea, which, however, changes with the several changes with the several stages of its development. A ruling idea of the colonies of this continent, two hundred years ago, was labor to subdue and re claim nature Then African Slavery was seized and employed as an aunlli&ry, under a seeming necessity. That idea has ceased forever. It has given place to a new one. Aggrandizement of tbe nation, not indeed as it once was, to make a small . Q tate great, but to make a State already great tho greatest of all State?. It still demands labor, but i; is no longer the ignorant labor of barbarians, bur Inl-or perfected by knowledge, and skil!. and combination with nil tbe scientific principles of mechanism. It demands, not tho labor of tdarrs, which need to be watched and , defended, but voluntary, enlightened labor, stim ulated by interest, affection, and ambition. It needs that every man shall own the land he tills; that every bead shall be fit for the helmet, and every hand fit for tbe sword, and every mind ready and qualified for counsel. To attempt to aggrandize a country with slaves for Us inhabi tauts, would be to try to make a large body of empire with feeble sinews and empty veins. Tim FATE OF EVERY I’RO-SLAYEBT PARTY Mr. President, ihe expansion of territory to make Slave Slates will only fail to be a great crime because it is impracticable, and therefore will lurn out :o be a stupendous imbecility. A free Republican Government, like this, notwith standing all ms constitutional checks, cannot long resist and counteract the progress of society. Slavery, wherever and whenever, and in what soever form it exists, is exceptional, local, and short lived Freedom is the common right, in terest, and ultimate destiny of all mankind. All either Dal ions have already abolished, or are abUtiU abolishing Slavery. Does this fact mean nothing parties ’in this country that have tolerated thc~cx??a*iSP uf gla ™7* e* ce P l oDe has perished for tluTr^Pfl^alraadj...^That last >..ne—tbe Democratic Parly— irretrievably, loward the same fate^jHHSt ministrations that hare nvowed this policy bare gone <1 '*n dishonored for that cause, except the present one A pit deeper and darker still is opening to receive this Administration, because it sins more deeply thanitg predecessors. There is a-meaning in ail these facts, which it becomes iis to study well. The nation has advanced another stage; it has reached the point where intervention, by the Government, for Slavery and Slave State?, will no longer be tolerated. Free-labor has at last apprehended its rights, its interests, its power, and its destiny, and is organiiing itself to nssunic the government of the Republic. It will henceforth meet you boldly and resolutely here; it will meet you everywhere, in the Territories or out of them, wherever you may go to extend Slavery. It has driven you bock in ('alifornla and in Kansas; it wilt invade you soon in Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Missouri and Texas. It will meet you in Arizona, in Central America, and even in Uuba. The invasion will be Dot merely harmless but beneficent, if you yield seasonably to its just and moderate demands. It proved so in New-York, New-Jersey, Pennsylvania, and the other Slave States, which have already yield ed in that way to its advances. Yon may, in deed, gel a start under or near the tropics, and seem safe for a time, but it will be only a short t«roe. .Even there you will found States only for free labor to maintain and occupy. The interest of the white races demands the ultimate emanci! 1 pation of all men. Whether that consummation shall be allowed to take effect, with needful and wise precautions against sudden change and dis aster, or be hurried on by violence, is all that remains for you to decide. For the failure of your system of slave-labor throughout the Rep ublic, the responsibility will rest not on theagi* taiors you condemn, or the political parties you arraign, or even altogether on yourselves, but it will be due to tho inherent error of the system itself, and to the error which thrusts it forward to opposo and resist the destiny, not more of the African than thaL of the white races. The white man needs this continent to labor upon. His head is clear, his arm Is strong, and his necessi ties aro fixed He must havo it. To Becuro it, he will oblige the Government of the United Stales to abandon intervention in favor of slave labor and Slave States, and go backward forty years, ami resume the original policy of intervention in faTor offree labor and Free States. The fall of the castle of San Juan d’Ulloa deter mined the fato of Mexico, although sore sieges and severe pitched battles intervened before the capture of the capital of the Aztecs. The de feats yon have encountered in California and in Kansas determines the fate of the principle for which you have been contending. It is for yourselves, not for us, to decide how long and through what further mortifications and disasters the contest shall be protracted, before Freedom shall enjoy her already assured triumph. I would have it ended now, and would have the wounds of society bound up and healed. But this can be done only in one way. It cannot be done by offering further resistance, nor by any evasion or partial surrender, nor by forcing Kansas into the Union os a Slave StAtc, against her will, leaving her to cast off Slavery afterwards, as she best may ; nor by compelling Minnesota and Oregon to wait, and wear the humiliating coe turao of Territories at the door* of Congress until the people ef Kansas, or their true defend ers here, shall be brought to dishonorable com promises. It can be done only by the simple and direct admission of the three new States as Free States, without • qualification , condition, reservation or compromise, and by the abandonment of all MUrr attempt,!, ntonf Slurrry undo- th e F,deral LtmiMutum. ltm hare unwiiely pmhed lie S ° f l r ’ th “‘ o nl T U>«« broad nonce j sioos mil now bo accepted bj the intereet of freo labor and free States. For myself, I see this fact, perhape, the more distinctly now, because 1 haee so long foreseen it. I can, thero ore, counsel nothing less than those concessions. I know the hazards I incur In fating this posi tion. I know how men and parties, now earnest, and zealons, and bold, nay yet fall away from me as the controversy shall wax warm, and. alarms and dangers, now unlooked for, shall stare them in -the face ; a* men end parties, equally earnest, bold and zealous, have done in like oircnmstaoofß before. But U is the same position I took is the case of California eight years ago. It is the same I maintained on the gTeat occasion of the of and Nebraska, four years ago. Time and added experience have rindicaied-it since, and I assume it again, to be maintained to the last, with confidencetiat it trill he justified ulti mately bythecountry and by the civilized world. You may reftise to yield it now, and for a abort period, bat your refusal will only animate the friends of Freedom with the courage and the resolution, and produce the union among them, which alone are necessary on their part to at tain the position itself simultaneously with the impending overthrow of the existing Federal Administration and the constitution of a new and more independent Congress. Mr. President, this expansion of the empire of free white men is to be conducted through the process of admitting new States, and not otherwise. Tho white man, whether you oon sent or not, will make the States to be admitted, and he will make them all Free States. We must admit them, and admit them all free; otherwise, they will become independent and foreign States, constituting a new empire to contend with us for the continent. To admit them is a simple, easy, and natural policy. It is not new to us, or to oar times. It began with the voluntary union of the first thirteen. It has continued to go on until the ends of the continent arc tho borders of our Union. Thus we become co laborers with our fathers, and even with our posterity throughout many ages. After time?, contemplating the whole vast structure, com pleted and perfected, will forget the dotes, and the eras, and the individualities, of the builders in their successive generations. It will be one great Republic, founded by one body of benefac tors. I wonder that the President of the United States undervalues the Kansas question, when it is a part of a transaction so immense and sub lime. Far from sympathizing with him in his desire to depreciate it, and to be rid of it, I fe licitate myself on my humble relation to it, for I know that Heaven cannot grant, nor man de sire a more favorable occasion to acquire fame, than he enjoys who is engaged in Laying the foundations of a great empire; and I know, also, that while mankind have often deified their benefactors, no nation hasever yet bestowed hons or on the memories of the founders ef Slavery! I have always believed, Mr. President, that this glorious Federal Constitution of ours is adapted to the inevitable expansion of the em pire, which I have so feebly presented. It has been perverted often by misconstruction, and it has yet to bo perverted many Limes and widely hereafter; but it has inherent strength and vigor that will cast off all the webs which the ever changing interests of classes may weave around it. If it fail us now, it will, however, not be our null, but because an inevitable crisis, like that of youth, or of mankind, is to be encountered by a constitution proved in that case to be inade quate to the trial. I am sure that no patriot who views the subject as I do, could wish to evade or delay the trial. By delays we could only extend Slavery at tho most throughout the Atlantic regions of tho Continent.'' The Pacific slope is free, and it always must* and will be free. Tho mountain barriers that separate us from that portion of oar Empire, are quite enough to dividers too widely, possibly to alien ate us too soon. Let us only become all slavo bolding States on this side of those barriers, while only Free States are organized and per petuated on the other side, and then indeed there will come a division of the great American family into two nations, equally ambitious for complete control over the Continent, and a con flict between them, over which the world will mourn, as the greatest and last to be retrieved of all the calamities that have ever befallen the human race.
