'l’he remaining point to be whether the majority of the people-desire'to be admitted as a State under the ConsiiiiailDD presented. This your committee deertj£,nn important inquiry ; fpr however clear such a movement may he -to the exercise of a con. s'itulional right in strict .confbjmity to con stitutional cequicemepla acknowledged and well established' 'precedents, it Is never theless a mere petition, and unless approved by a majority of.those -upon whom -it is-to operate, the petition should not be granted. .■.Whether it is so approved in this case, is a Tact which each membe' mnst determine for himself in the same manner as he woglctas cerlnmany other fact upon which it is neces sary for him to form an opinion in order to guide his vote. This necessity is cqnstanlly impressed upon .legislators, and it is an ad mitted principle that the absolute legal evi dence which is required in.judicial proceed ings, cannot be and is not expected or re quired. A rule that would require It would arrest .almost all legislation. Books, letters, news papers public reports, declarations of indi viduals, and ordinary information of all kinds, nre daily teceived by legislators to establish Iqctq qn, which they base; their votes. Any information which is received as worthy of credit by a legislator,.and which produces belief in the existence of a fact, is sufficient for his action. It is not necessary to cite the 'authority of any of the eminent statesmen who have announced this doctrine to sustain this position. In view of the history of Kan sas, under the light of this doctrine, are not ihe facts sufficient to justify legislators in the belief that a majority of the people approve of,ihe Constitution as adopted.and presented 1 II is idle to attempt to.disguise or conceal the fact, notorious to the Whole country, that the great and only point of contest in the Terri tory, between the two. coptending parlies, is whether Slavery shall be allowed or prohibit ed, and that the one party advocate this Con stitution because if prohibits it, and for the same reason Ihe other party oppose it v To every man that believes that the Free Stale party is in a majority (no matter how that belief, is induced,) the petition is entitled to support. With the ‘ flood of information relative to Kansas that has for two years covered the whole country, and which has been sought «ilh avidity by every person desirous of un derstanding its strange and eventful history, there are few. if any men who have-pot form ed and even expressed an opinion as to which party is in the majority. And the informa-1 lion and wisdom upon this point is so exten sive and voluminous and so generally under stood that your Committee deem it unneces sary to do more than refer to Ihe small por tion of it more immediately within their reach. By reference to the report of the Kansas Special Committee at the last session, it will he seen that at the Congressional election in November, 1854, the pro-slaveryjparty poll ed 2,258 voles, of which 1,279 were shown to have been illegal, although the invesliga lon did not extend to all the districts, and the Committee say that the settlers took but little in'ercst in the election, not half of them vo ting. In February and March, 1855, the census showed 2905 voters ; and on the 30th of March, 1855, ihe same party polled 5457 votes, and the illegal votes were 4808. At the election on Ihe Ist of October, 1855, they polled 2721 voles, of which 857 were illegal, and a number of districts not investigated. In the first two of these elections, the other parly, ns it is well known, scarcely partici pated, and in the last, not at all. At the election of Ociober 9, 1855, fot Congressional delegate. Gov. Reeder receiv ed 2849 voles at a lime when there was no occasion for illegal voting. The delegates who were elected to frame, and did frame the Free Slate Constitution, received 2710 voles, none of which are shown to be illegal. The voles on (he ratification of the Constitution, December 15, 1855, were 1778, of which nnlv 40 were opposed, and the election was hold directly afier the first invasion to destroy Lawrence; and for that reason a full vole could not be polled. The election at Leavenwjorlh was interrup ted by violence of the opposing party, and the poll books and ballot-box destroyed where the Free Slate voles had been 514; so that the voles on ratifying this Constitution,was, in reality, some 2300, notwithstanding the disturbed state of the Territory, and influen ces of intimidation that prevailed at that lime calculated to deter Free State voterd from vo- ting. This brief review of the elections held, clearly indicates that the parly advocating the Free Stale Constitution are in the major ity in the Territory. But the ever-recurring invasions from the. Stale of Missouri at all the elections of the Territory, in numbers amounting to from 1700 to 5000, to assist the pro-slavrry party to elect their candid ates ; the conflicting of that parly in the Ter ritory with these invasions ; the willing ac ceptance of this aid and Die laws passed by them when in power, to exclude dho Free State voters from the polls, as well as the vi olence used by the Missourians, and the pro slavery men in the Territory to break up the £h\!iiur'’>i ii-. .r '''l.;'"’!

The Constitution al ready adopted, as has been /ully.shown, is in strict and undoubted conformity to constitu tional requirements—is justified by numerous and authoritative precedents—is sustained by a population agreed by the advocates of both qpCgqures to be;sufficient, and -which is>ex pected by all to increase with great, rapidity —and is approved by a majority of tho peo ple. What'valid objection then can be urged against its adoption ? That persons who are displeased with the prohibition of Slavery which it contains, your Committee can read ily conceive might prefer another trial of the question in a hope of a different result. But that can hardly be received as a reason why this Government should wilhold (rom any portion of the peoplertheir constitutional rights, and neglect to redress their wrongs.
