Further re turns may possibly show a result different from that now anticipated, but it is not un likely that the republicans and Abolitionists _ have accomplished,for the present, theiegal i ration of slavery in the Territory. They are responsible for it; hnff they, more than any -. °'her class of men, rejoice over its establish ment, Doe's any one doubt the correctness , , fifthfe position, and still place faith and professions of men who deal in Kansas agitation, aud traffic in hu man freedom ? Let tw refer them to the his tory of this question, which, indeed, is so , short as hardly to have escaped the memory of any well informed man. Silica an early poriod in the Kansas con troversy the tree State man had an absolute ■tnqjerily of the electors in the Territory.— "This they have always claimed, and iheir opponents have generally conceded it.— It follows that they have at all times had the power to control the subject. They had entire power to elect a majority of the dele gates to the Constitivional Convention, and to give shape and character to the instru anenL In doing this, and providing for the exclusion of Slavery from Kansas, they ■would have had the active co operation of a large number of Democrats in the territory who were opposed to slavery and wished tor its exclusion. This opportunity was not merely neglected (for it was perfectly un derstood, gnd its importance correctly appre ciated throughout the country,) but it was shamefully aud purposely rejected, with the view and object of fastening upon Kan sas a slavery Constitution. For this establishment of slavery in Kan sas, we hold, and the country will hold, the Free State men of the Territory responsible; And not them alone, but primary and chief ly, the leading political managers in the States, under whose advice and direction the misguided people -of Kansas acted. It was determined as a measure of partizan policy, that slavery must be fixed upon that Territory; and since a fair expression of the people, according to the intent and meaning of the organic act, would-not accomplish it, the result must be obtained by other means, —loss honest, it is true, but still sufficiently so for the approval of the managers of a great political party, which sought to carry its sectional doctrines not only into the councils of the nation, but into the Execu tive Chair. Not only did the Free State majority in Kansas conspire to place the power of mak ing a Constitution in (he hands of the pro slavery men, but alter that instrument was completed by the Convention, and the sla very clause, which had been the only ques tion in dispute, submitted to the people for ] their approval or rejeotion, the same deteT iniuation to make Kansas a slave State char aotorioed their action, and they have again refused to establish a Free State Constitu iiartj'antiougtrconTcssecny able fo cttf w>. It is seldom that demagogues are able to Accomplish their purposes, when the peo pie of a State or Territory are relied upon tocarty their plans into effect. The peculi ar circumstances attending this question, have, however, enabled designing men to xeroise an influence upon a body of elec tors, beyond any previous example. A large proportion of the settlers in Kansas, cmi grated from the East, under the auspices of the Very men -who have sought to turn fhe excitement ia fhe Territory to political ac count. Thdy went there with sentiments J similar to those entertained by the crusaders of ancient limes, regarding their mission as against slaveholders, rather than against the system of slavery, Hut.proffered to do any act, however imprudent, which should seem , to be demanded by those engaged in :hn ' war. not against slavery, but against the principle of popular sovereignly, and the national, conservative sentiment of the coun try. They have canied their lanaticism to the bitter end. Of course we do not moan to say that the . Abolitionists and Kejrttbffcwos desired sas to be permanentlya Slave holding State. But, for the political effect, they wish to have it to adopt a pto-slavry Constitution Tliis is proved by their shaping their action and inaction so as to produce that result.— In this respect they have gained their point.

' " lo *wb r 7 Wrdacsdajr, Jan. 0, lUSB. ) KANSAS AGAIN. ; It is not strange that some people persist r in misunderstaning the relation which the President holds to the people of Kansas, or, } indeed, to the of any territory, or Of j any State, lihorels a Ceriaih fire and alae , 'rity inspired into a writer or speaker who deals in ingenuous falsehoods that prompt him to go on, for he knows that, however it ) may fare with his argument, his ingenuity . will be sure of applause. When we argue that the President should say to the people of a territory, frame your ; Constitution in this or that particular way, or with or without this or that particular f feature, (saving his power of enforcing upon them the observance of the laws and the I national constitution), wo talk treason. Yet I this is what many would have liira -do.— You, who deprecate the treason, deny it. For I the proof: A Kansas Legislature, elected, organized and recognized by repeated acts of Congress long before President Buchanan was inaugu rated, enacted a law calling a convention to frame a State Constitution. This Conven tion met accordingly, and a Constitution was framed, which, for the purposes of this ar gument, we will suppose to be not antago nistic to the national Consti'ution, and under which, taking their naked facts, Kansas could be admitted into the Union. Now what is wrong? You answer, first, the territorial legislature which authorized this Convention waß itself illegally clec ed, aud that,consequently,this Convention was illegal. We reply that, even if so, the President can have no official knowledge of the fact, aud inasmuch us the legality of this legisla ture has been recognized by Congress, the President is bound to recognize it also, howevea repugnant it may be to his senti ments of right, and contrary to his private opinions of policy. Any other course on his part would involve an unconstitutional assumption of power—for which many a ruler and statesman has keen tried as a trai tor, and brought to the block. You say, secondly, that, granting the Lc compton Convention to have been legally called, the President, who has all along pro fessed to be a popular sovereignty man, should, for the sake of consistency, have ! repudiated tho constitution, because all its j provisions were not submitted to the peo- j pie. We answer in ourown wordsof last week; j lie is a popular sovereignty man, in the broadest sense of the term. The people of, Kansas voted upon just as much of this con- . stitution as they, through their reprerenta - lives, had expressed a desire to vote upon,— j in other winds. thasr have done as they ,snm. 'IT this is not popular sovereignty , we know not what is; but we hero protest against the fallacy of going back io the as- j sertion that the people were not represent ed in that Convention. This fallacy so far ( as the President is affected, is exposed in j our answer to your first objection; and we J are not now contesting alleged facts. The President is strictly in the line of his duty; and those who suppose that this ofti r cial can ignore a Constitution framed by a Convention which ib acknowledged by the nation in its representative capacity to be legal, either are blinded by parly fury, or {,ut little of tho elementary principles of our "ovuinmeiital frame. But there is an air of plausibility whifh accompanies vul gar reasonings and noi'tons taken irom the beaten circle of ordinary experience, that js admirably fitted to the narrow capacif.'os I ot" = ;me, and the laziness of others.

HT A Donation Party for the benefit ol i- Peter Bergatreseer, will be held at ~ bis residence, in Orangerill, on Tuesday, the J6tli of January in UTAH! We presume, there will net be much con troversy about the treatment of the Territory of Utah. The law establishing a Territorial government there should be repealed. There i 6 no purpose of making a State out of that organization at present; and consequently no warrant for it ID the Constitution of the United States. It has long bean feared that there was no remedy for the evils in Utah) but in crushing them out by force, it ia a painful conclusion to come to, and one that : no party would be willing to act upon unlil forced to do so by the conduct of lbs Mor mons themselves. Whilst any other alter native was possible, a resort to ths sword woul l not be adorted. There is no other coorse left. Wha' can be done with the Mormohs, with their disgusting social insti lutioo so repugnant to the sentiments of civ- j ilized men? If these fanatics had acted with a little mora craft, sod applied for admission into the Union with a Constitution made under the territorial authorities, ibey would doubtless have been admitted. If they litd disguised their evil practices until they had become an independent Slate, they might have legalized their abominations, and lived on, in spite of the scorn and disgust of all the other States. As it is, they have relieved the General Gov ernment from embarrassment as to the course to porstie, and will relieve our peo ple from the reproach of their morsl enor mities. On Wkosksdav last, a meeting took place in Philadelphia, of representatives ol Country Banks. The object of the meeting was to discuss the question of a resumption of specie payments. A considerable number of the Hanks represented deolared their readinees to resume, at the earliest possible date, while others advised luriher delay. The following gentlemen advocated a return to specie pay ment :—D. D. Wagoner, President of tho, Easton Bank ; F.dward S. Loup, Wyoming Bank ; W. A. Slingluff, Montgomery County Bank; C. W.Cooper, Allentown Bank; P. S. Michler, Farmers' and Mechanica' Bank ; J\lr. H. Horn, Sr., Cataeaqua Bank, (specie paying); Mr. Minter, PolNlown Bank; and in addition to these, the repreaentativea of the Banks of Reading, Chester county, and other near localities, while the distant banks were not represented. It was resolved, ''that in the opinion of (hie meeting, it is desirable that the banks of this State shall resume spe cie payment by the first of February nezt, and that the country banks here represented will do so, should the city banks resume at the same period." As the proceedings were not public, and the reporters of the press were refused admittance, we cannot of course, pos . itively warrant the authenticity of the above, | but there is little or no room for doubt.— | Pennsylvania!*. ! IT The affairs in Kansas have arrived at } such a state ol complication, and are so hope- I : iessly mixed up, that there is no telling how I they stand or how they are aoing to lermi | nate. The people of that territorial paradiee (appear to have no other employment just I now than holding Conventions, making Coo -i „.Mrr.,-rrs, rrmng- ana in a general I anil prnmi-cnouß way.

DIAMOND CUT DIAMOND. —The son of a rich Jew banker in London became much attach ed lo a young Christian, wbith whom his fa ther opposed his union. When the son found that the father could not be induced to give hie consent to the match, he concluded to marry without it. The father (hen threatened to withhold every shilling from him, where upon the son replied, ihst if the father did not intend to give him anything, he would become a Christian, and according to the law be would be entitled to one-half of his father's fortune. The father, much alarmed, flew to his lawyer, to enquire whether such n law was really in existence. The lawyer's answer Was in the affirmative, br.t adding that if he would hand him over ten guineas, he would give Itim a plan by wbich he could frustrate his son's plans. The ten guineas were quickly produced.

The pris oner manifested the utmost indifference and levity while preparations for his execution wers in progress. While the Sheriff was ad justing the rope about the prisoner's neck, he laughed and exclaimed, " It's getting pretty tight, Bill!" As the drop fell the rope broke ! Blindfolded and choked, the prisoner etill ap peared to bave reason and presence of mind, and walked iu the direction of the steps, as if to reascend the scaffold. A horrid sound, like the death-rattle, escaped from his month whioh made many of the spectators sicken ard turn pale. In a moment Mullinx was in the arms of men who held him while the Sheriff tied the rope and then drew him up from the ground, and thus this object of the law's vengeance soon passed from lime into eternity.
