TFIE KANSAS COM PROMISN PASSNo. r
The Kansas agony is at last over, and right
or wrong, the bill reported by the Conference
Committee has been adopted in the house of
Representatives and concurred in by the
Senate. We refer to our telegraphic column
for the particulars of the closing debate and
final vote. Of the merits or demerits of Mr.
English's Bill we have not time to write to,
day. That something has been done, even
if it be not done as we could hove wished, is
cause for congratulation to every citiz , n who
has the least desire for the geueral good of
the country.
The following abstract of the Committee's
Bill, taken from the columns of a cotempu
rary, will inform our readers what the main
features of the law are : If the ordinance is
:accepted, then the Constitutio!& is accepted
if the ordinance is rejected, then the Consti
tution is rejected also. In point of fact,
therefore, the Constitution is just as really
submitted to the popular vote as the ordinance
itself. Practically, the people will votr upon
it
. just as truly as if it were submitted to
them in so Many words. If they wish to re
ject it, they have the opportunity of doing so.
The question is not put fraudulently, as it was
in the October election-- Constitution with
land," or "Constitution without land,"—but
Lind and the Constitution," or " No land
and no Constitution." * In form,
the Leconiptoo Constitution may not be sub
mitted by this bill ; but, in fad, it is submits
ted, and will be accepted or r(Jected as the
majority of the people of Kansas tray vote on
the one side or the other. This was the essen
tial principle of the Crittenden amendment,
and constitutes the main demand of the oppo•
nents of the Lecompton Constitution. They
insisted that this instrument should not he
forced upon the people of Kansas, but sub
mitted to their vote. * * Precisely the
same grants of land were made to the State
by the Crittenden bill, and the grant was, in
precisely the same way, contingent upon the
acceptance of the Lecompton Constitution.
In fact, they are and must be always made in
this form, when they are made at all. The
grants of land are to tkr, and become
valid, therefore, only when, by the adoption
of the Constitution, the pesple of the Terri
tlry make it a State. They could not be made
in any other way. The lands cannot be given
to Kansas while it remains a Territory, for it
lacks the sovereignty essential to their owner
ship. if given at all, they must be given
contingently—upon the Territory becoming a
Sfate. We do not see, therefore, that any just
or wellsfounded exception can be taken to this
provision of the English bill, It is neither
unjust nor unusual. It has been adopted
once, in precisely its present form, by the
Anti-Lecompton majority in the House of'
Representatives.
The President will no doubt sign this bill,
and whatever trouble the Kansas question
may cause in the future, for the present at
least, it
.will be removed from the Halls of Na
tional Legislation to the soil of Kansas whose
citizens may " fight their bottles o'er again."
KANSAS
For five months the nation has been tritb , l
with by Congress, who, instead el attending
to the business of the people which they were
sent there to transact, have consumed the pub
lic time and money in long, idle and useless
speeches and debates about a political abstrac
tion, which, now it is settled, will not aiiect
the interests of the people generally, and which
after all that has been said, was but a simple
contest arising out of pride of opinion. One
thing is evident, the legislation which the na
tion needs has been and will be most grossly
neglected on account of delay. There are
something over live hundred bills urncted
upon before Congress, and a thousand bills
and petitions in the hands of the standing
committees, and many of these are of great
importance, bir, all have stood back and
waited for Kansas. During the short re.
mailing time of the session it will be impos
sible to consider and properly mature laws re
lating to these most important subjects—the
members know this—they have known it for
months past, and still the cry has been " Kan
sas, Kansas," and trifling is carried so far in
the Halls of Congress that a country debating
club is dignified in comparison'Writh the sen
ate of the nation. The quotation of nursery
rhymes may consume time and excite "exct.s.-
sive laughter," but it does not and will not
satisfy the people. Let us now have done
with Kansas in some way. If such' an im
broglio had occurred in the English l'arlia
mcnt in Cromwell's time as our own Capital
has presented for the past winter the Pro
tector would have dissolved the body and
sent the members home to learn common
sense and a due regard for the public interest.
We are tired and sick and disgusted with the
manner in which this whole Kansas question
has been treated in Congress. It is an out
rage on the people that their great interests
should have been thus neglected by their own
servants.
But now we hope Kansas agitation will end,
and that the members of Congress will make
some atonement for their past political sins
by doing better in the futnu—that is, if they
have not 1.4 - gotten how.
The Tariff.
This important question is dai;y attracting
the attention of the people more and more.—
A Washington letter writer to the Philadel
phia Ledger says, that it was estimated by
the Secretr.ry of the Trea•sury, in his report,
at the opening of the sm]ion, that the reve
nue from customs would be reduced twenty
five per cent. by the operation of the new tars
iff. It is probable that the revenue will cons
tinue to fall much short of the expenditures,
and that, at the next session, it will become
necessary to revise the tariff, with a view to
increase the revenue, or to create a revenue
from some other sources, such as direct. taxes.
The Vice Prcelctcttt
The Louisville ( 'ouricr, of April 24th, says
that Hon. John C. Breckinridge, Vice Presi
dvit of the United sates, arrived there, on the
23. on the Steamer 11. C. Newcomb. and after
stopping a few hours with his relative, Rev.
Dr. Wm. 12. Brechenridge,started on the after.
noun train for Lexington. We are glad to
hear that the health of his estimable wife,
who accompanied him, hai been greatly ha
proved by her winter's residence at the south.
The Vice President himself is in unusual lino
health.
THE NICAUAGUA TREATY.
n important treaty of amity and c3m
merce between the government of the Lilted
States Nicaragua, was ratified on the
of March last, by the constituent and legis
lativ i assembly of the latter republic. The
ratification of the instrument was passed by a
majority of one vote, but the Nigaragua As
sembly have thought to acc.L.mpany it with a
declaration that "they are not entirely satisfied
with the treaty, but that they accept it with
out amendments, as an evidence which Nicar
agua renders to the friendly conduct of Presi
dent Buchanan."
NI Al i , IF 6S
The New York ILruid which publishes the
text of the treaty entire, gives tls the follow•
ing, in relation to its elects :

to the firmness and clear bighted policy of the
Healdent that we owe this result, we oongratu

of e tiitegi,n which involved, not enly direct
interests of the greatest importtince, but princi

tion which we are for the future to hold with the
Central and South American States. Besides
securing to our citizens all the privileges of th
most favored nation, 'Nitta a protectate over the
transit routes, the Irisiarri treaty it a virtual
recignition of the natural influence and author
ity which the United States is destined to exer
cise over the whole of this continent. Practi
cally, it supersedes the Clayton-Bulwer treaty,
and all, other treaties under which the European
P)Nerts may seek the right of intervention in
Spanish American affairs, whilst at the came
time it reader:; unnecessaty all further tilllibi--

that the progress which Nicaragua will Trish ,

aid of this country, will soon decide all Out

tering wing. The benefit- which they mast all
derive from Buzil an association will in their turn
re act upon the South American governments,
4!,ti thus our authority will be quietly and peace
fully extended over the whole of the American
continent. We need nut point out the numerous
difficulties which the legitimate realization of
'title policy will spare us. It will save us from
all further anxiety in regard to the interruption
of our means of commuuiceth - in with our Pacific
territories, remove all vexatious questions of
diet ute with governments with which, owing
to their weakness, no credit is to be gained by
quarreling, and exclude wholly from the field
of American politics the European governments
which are necking to establish a right of in
terference in our affairs.
We have never, in many years, seen good
plays more capitally pru;ented. than those
which are now nightly given at the new Na

opinions of all persons of correct taste and
who enjoy fine acting, ne Bias Davenport.—

and she is well supported by Mr. Foster's ea

Medea, and se her engagement will continue
only three nights longer, no play can ha re

character should secure seats toaday.

The above paragraph we have noticed in
several journals, says the Ledger. If the in
creased value of the property and trade of
Massachusette be brought in as an offset to
the depreciation of the stock of the roads,
the balance would be thrown quite on the
other side. It is well to remember, also, that
the stock is not all in original hands. The
prosent holders would be well paid at sixty br
their investment, principal and interest. Mass
achusetts has pursued a wise policy in build
ing roads to develop her resources and give
activity to trade and intercourse. There is
here true wealth ; the same will apply getters
ally throughout the country.

Mr. Doolittle, of Wisconsin, oinred a resolution
that a wagon road be constructed from Fort Benton
to the navigabto waters of the Columbia river at
Walla Walla. Referred to the CAumitteo on Mili
tary Affairs.
The consid-ration of the report of the Committee
of Conference on tho Kansas bill was resumed.
Mr. Brcilerick, of California, said that after the
matter liad been Ekl ably discussed, ho would not
make a lengthy speech. Ho was opposed to and
would v~•te against the bill reported by the Commit
tea Crmiererom for several re: son:, the most po
tent whi:h is that it prohibits Kansas from com
in4 int the Urii di as a free State during the contin
uance t'-:o powor f tdic present Administration ;
that tim ry Las but 35,000 population now,
and if ;lie dw_s not swallow the Lec,m.plon Consti
tution, five or at x. year, must elapse before she \i,ll
have the requisite poimlation to entitio her t repro
sentatiom fhe or.gindi bill was even less objec
tionable t dim than this Conference substitute.
Mr. Toombs rep,rted from the Committeo on the
llcfi ior..(- . 7 1,1.1, that the two house's were unable to
cAne to au IL;roment.
Mr. Hunter gave notice that he will again move
that the So Late re-ecie.
Mr. 11. , ,usdon Leered that the .-:entite take up the
resollit;,n relative to the Mexican preriticrate. ire
wade Nerbal rlterationa, and anked that it be re.
ferred.
On motion of Mr. Mi 1.3011 it was laid on ft,e table,
and th.: Kansas substitute was taken up.
Mr. Seward took the floor and said :—The bill has
gene into cn ndsrsnee. and conies out an artifice; a
trick of legislative legerdemain. Both cads of the
capital have bet. engaged to•dav in attempting 1 0
tare to piece. a; .1 put together this legislative I
ale. He bed little, talent and no taste for this sort Cl
lie illustrated his position by reference
to a perpetual moti n machine and automan chess
player, which, lilre the conference project, were
gotten up for the purpose of not being explained by
one side to the other. He objected to the conference
bill because it presented a false issue to the people.
The true que,tLa at issue is the submission of the
Constitution direct to the people. The question of
puhlie latest::: has nothine: 6 to do with that, inasmuch
as the lands aro the dowry of all new States.
Iho lend question dues net occupy ono line of the
eighteen quarto pages of the Kansas debate ; it is,
therefore, a feigned issue.. Besides, the question of
nun bare is rqaally new, dating only from the con
ference, that Kansas has enough population for a
slave State, and just half onctigh for a free State.
Mr. Seward then replied severely to Mr. Pugh's say
ing that Mr. Seward stood in 1856 fur the admission
of Kansas as a tree State. lie stands there now. He
oared not for numbers; if ten hundred, or ten buns
drod thousand, or if it even reached the population
of C hints, he would not aid by one vote for its ad
mission es a slave State. As to his estimate formerly
made o her growing populousness, ho predicated on
the fact of her being a free State. Ile never prom
ised rapid progress for a slave State; he never was
so young that VS hen he first saw in Othello the gentle
daughter of the Senator of Venice married to a Moor
in the first act, as not to knew that discord would
follow in the second, and death and desolation in the
last. Further, he objected to the bill because it beers
equivocation on its face. It purports to ha a subs
mission of her dowry, but it submits Lecompten. It
is so regarded by the Democratic presses. Ile read
from the speech of Mr. Cox, of Ohio, that the sense
of the Teeple was to be taken on Leeomptan, al
though it was act directly submitted; it was like
voting by black and white balls in Masonic: lodges,
without saying anything about the candidate who is
in waiting. No State but Ode could have got at the
outside of so lucid an explanation. Thus indirectness
and equivocation aro on the bill, and double eaten.
ores in legislation are an immorality. Moreover, if
you make a slave barrier across this lti,itude of 41,
you interpose a barrier to progress more insurmount
able than the Rocky Mountains or Sierra Nevada.

separate, by a slave barrier, the Atlantis free from
the Paeltic free. Further, this bill is nothing but
Lecompton ; Leeompton with a variation. You toss
a coin, and bid Kansas cry eagle cr liberty.; if eagle,
you give her slavery : if the effigy of liberty, you
give her slavery still. What think the Senator from
Pennsylvania, representing the first free State; the
Senator from the Rhode Island of Roger Williams ;
the senator front lowa ; and the Senator from Cali•
fornia, whose State was saved from slavery by efforts
other than his: and the Senator from Indiana? Bat
they have another question to settle with their people
at home. What answer will they give to this pro
posal, which leaves only the semblance and not the
choice of liberty.? Addressing himself next to the
Election Board, le said the ghosts on the Styx are
not more thick and cloudy than are the spirits of the
departed tiovurnors who attempted to give correct
returns. Ile had no confidence in the President as
an element of that board. He has had an experience
that some would cry shame. Ha neither disparaged
nor defamed the President, but ho consoled himself
that once men in Virginia cried shame on Patrick
Henry ; men were not wanting in Rome to cry shame
on Cato; and they were no friends of liberty who in
Senates fear to oppose Kings or Presidents.
Here Mr. Bigler announced that the bill had passed
the House. Considerable sensation was manifested
on the galleries and the floor.
Mr. Seward resumed, saying that the announce
ment caused him no discouragement. It was but
little matter, practically, whether it was the last de
feat or the first victory.
After some discussion as to points of order, the
vete was taken, and resulted as follows: yeas 31,
nays 22 ; the Senators generally voting the same as
previously.
Thereafter Mr. Hunter monad that the Senate re
eeda from the amendments to the Deficiency bill,
which ware carried wit:au:it debate, by 25 s,;:aiust 21.
The Senate a Ijourned.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVR9
Mr. Englie, of Indiana, called fur the regular
order, being the consideration of the Committee of
Conference en the Kansas bill.
Clark, of No•.v York, said heladintendal to
give his reaica.s fur voting against. the Fllba[ituto,
but a night's sickness had left him physically
-1)) to undertake the task. Ho would merely now
say that he regarded this new schema as emiaen.ly
of jectionable in form, and still more dangerous in
trubstance. Ile would seek the floor on scan 9 future
ciicasicia to deliver his views upon the subject.
Mr. Bryan, of l'exas, gave his reasons why ho
had acted with the little squad of Sou!liern mem
bers on this cut ject. Alter alluding to .ho remark
of Senator Seward, that he regarded the battle be
tween freedom and slavery tis already fought, he
said that he would do nothing to jccpordize the onion
of the South for the protection of the South, which
is much needed.
Mr. Shorter, of Alabama, said he had, with five or
six Southern Dmocrate, uniformly resisted the rre
vioas question. Ho had wonted time for discussion,
in order to arrive at a correct construction of the
substitute bill. lie now found that the general eon•
struction was, that it did net refer the Lecompton
constitution back to the people of Kansas. If ho
believed it did, he would vote against it, even with
the Black Republicans. The gentleman from Geol.-
gio. (Mr. Stephens) said that the constitution was
not to bo submitted, and the gentleman from Indi
ana (Mr. Engdsh) by his silence acquiesced in that
v inv. Bo (Mr. Shorter) would now co...operate with
the friends ut the measure, and veto for the previous
quo.tion.
Mr. Oarepbell, of Chic, said that his colleague,
Mr. Cox, at the commencement of the session, took
the banner f_ f popular sovereignty in hand, and tri
umphantly defended it; but now, in tho full view of
vi•tory, he beat a retreat.
Mr. Cos, of Ohio, viisb.ed to say that he was of
the opinion that the ainendraeut which the House
was th hcst, but as this could not beet vie a
law, he was willing to take the Test host, under the
cir,,ututences.
Mr. Campbell then ashA Mr. Cox whether he un
dorgited the hilt pi - mien:eel by the Committee ot Con
ference as submitting the LeJonipten Constitution to
the cote of the people. •
Mr. Hughes, of Indiana, objeetod to Mr. Cox an
swering the gne,tion.
Mr. Goa replied, however, that, although the con
stitution was not submitted directly, cot, in effect,
the people of Kansas will have the opportunity to
say whether tiny want it.
Mr. Campbell wanted an unequivocal answer. Ile
then produced- a latter written by Mr. Cox, dated
February 6th, in which the latter stated that while
he had a vote it should rover be draggled in Le
compten mire, and that, so help him God, ho never
could do otherwise. Yes, remarked Mr. Campbell,
my colleague said ho would vote for no proposition
which would not submit the Constitution to a vote
of the people.
Mr. Cox Budd ho still endorsed that letter.
Mr. Campbell referred to the feet that about twenty
Anti.Lecompton Domocrat were pledged on a high
point of personal honor to stand to the end by the
Montgomery. Crittenden amendment in company with
the Ile-publicans.
Mr. Groesbeck, of Ohio, replied that he had made
no such pledge and had no stich.•understanding or
consultation.
Mr. Campbell replied that he did not make the
assertion with reference to that gentleman ° and asked
Mr. Groesbeck whether ho understood the bill as
submitting the constitution.

Mr. Jones repli•-d ho hod met on one or two
•zcaeicns witL eartain Democrats, but no committee
of toot hind wad appoi:ted or authcr red te pledge
his 7 - to on any subject.
M. Campbell then a-lied him whctbor the Lill
submitted the C - ri. , t;:ution to the. v,te of the people.
- Mr. Jove: replied that he was willing to let the
people construe that or themselves. [Larmthter
Mr. Bonham mooed the previous. question.
Mr. Grow moved, but the House refused to order
a call.
Mr Haskin obtained consent to make a few re.
marks, and said that Mr. C , x, at a certain time, was
not only opposed to the Lecompten Constitution, but
n M nday last, late in the afternoon, ho came to
his de,le and read a letter which he Lad written to
The Ohio denouncing the report of the
Committee of Conference as the most infam,us that
could be made, and denouncing the Chairman for
having made such a report.
Mr. Cox, earn - 2ttly—That is not true.
Mr. Haqkin—l can prove it by the gentleman
from
Mr. Cos—l ema furnish the ?etter. ; Cries of
mder.]
The Speaker rag...tested the gentlemen to take
seats. lie also reminded Mr. Baskin that his re.
tuarks were assuming a personal character. He
could give reasons for or against the bill, but not in
dulge in personalties.
Mr. Baskin said that he was simply giving fasts
in connection with the Lecompton fraud, and could
prove what he had stated. Twenty-three Democrats
started cut against the Senate bill, and only twelve
were left, equal t- the nuath,r of the Apostles. The
front oh', had seen a new light, and ho
asked !Lai to i. it to the country.
Mr. C n 1, that he hal stated yes,er that
is first impres-ion woo against tn-c Conference re
pbrt, and ho now es; ea:cd, that it dii not eutiroly
meet his views. In hi , letter to the
ha ha. e his opinion aml objection; ; at that time his
beet impressions were against the zei.ort, because he
timught it diseiriasif-ated against free and in favor of
slave Stetcs, but he had conferred with Gov. Walker,
an? oa learoing, from him that Kansas will next fall
have a pcpulati.m sutilciect und,d- the federal ratio
for a member of Congress, and he took the report as
the beet ho eiuld got. The gentleman from New
Vora should not insinuate that he was a Judas; that
gentleman knew full well that no one from the Ad
mini -.ration, or any other source, has dared to ap
proach him on the subject. (Laughter on the Res
publican side.] lie had acted with an honest mind
and r. pure heart for himself. Any man who insin,
meted. to the contrary, was not worthy of apiece on
this it -or, nor would be, if he had betrayed confidenca
and proved recreant to all that he had heictofore said
or done. Aa appealed to heaven for the rectitude
of lila intentions. 'The constitution was practically,
though not in form, submitted to the people of Kan
sas, and they would have a chance to kill it. he
asked Mr. Haskin whether there had been falsehood
or recreancy on his part.
Mr. liaskin—l leave that to the country, to judge.
Mr. Cox, with cornea and excited gesticulations,
made a reply, which w 4.9 lost in the greatest possi
ble con fusion.
The Speaker loudly rapped end said that he would
prohibit any isnguage approachitig to personality.—
The demand for the previous question was seconded.
The Speaker repeatedly rapped and called to order.
During roll call the Honso was unusually quiet. The
result on adopting the Kansas report was yeas 112,
nays 103. (Applause accompanied by hisses.)
