The organic Act required that on the ques

into the new State, the people should have
the right to vote, and it was accordingly
submitted to thnji for their action. Ou this
tho only question agitating the minds cf the

Territory had an opportunity of voting. If

Oo Monday of last week, cur esteemed
friend Mr. Isaac Crawford. Proprietor of the
Logan House in this place, communicated to
us a piece of information, which delighted us
not a little. Ilo informed us that he was en
gaged in getting up a free supper, to which
he intended inviting all his friends, tand wound
up by requesting us to report ourselves at
seven o'clock on Thursday evening. On
dropping into the Parlor of the "Logan" on
that evening, we found a goodly company of
tho citirens of our borough assembled, all in
high spirits, and auxiouslj waiting for the
sigcal to do justice to the good things which
they felt assured, Crawford was prepared to
spread before them. The signal haviagbeen
given we found ourselves in a moment, seated
at a table groaning under the weight of a
supply of luxuries and "eubetantials" calcu
lated to gladden the heart of the most fastid
ious epicure The whole arrangement re
flected the highest praise on the liberality
and good taste of Mr. Crawford and his
amiable La dy. The fcupper having been par
taken of by all the guests, about SO in number,
the cloth was removed, and a meeting organ
ized by appointing Ool M. D Magehan Pres
ident, assisted by a'nutrber of Vice Presidents
& Secretary?. Brief but eloquent addresses
were then delivered by Col. M. D Msgehan,
CM. M. Ilasson, Hon. Joha5- Rhey? R. L.

made a few sppropriatortmarks in conclusion

notified us of a duel which was to take place

between a Mr Giggy, a. citizen of Crow

were fired by each party. At the first fire
both were wounded, Mr. Giggy receiving a

Giggy was wounded in the left side It wa
with diGeulty that he could st:ind up for the

The Truth Corning Out.
From the Wasltinyton Union.'
We have always been of the opinion that
there was more of knavery than honesty in
the agitation of the slavery questicn, and par
ticulary that branch of which relates to Kan
sas. That question hss been seired upon by
designing politicians aa a means by which they
can get into and keep themselves in power, and
not through any love or respect for principles
All the recent developements on this subject
have been calculated to strengthen our con
victionp in this respec; atd we give below cur
convictions in thi? respect; and we give below
an extract from the Kansas Da ily Ledjtr., a
Free State paper, which, it seems to us, ought
to convince all who hava ever doubted as to
the real cause of the controversy. The Ledg
er say:
"Niggers ia Dot the great bone of contention
in Kansas, and those who cry out most lustily
for 'Nigger' or no Nigger,' hav'nt money e
nough, as a general thing, to buy a 'plug of
tobacco with.' The real bone cf contention is
power and the tpoilt; and the poor nigger is
made to bend and bow to suit the purposes cf
th ese polititial demagogues, that they may
ride into power and obtain some of the spoils
and'thats' all Ths free State party nor
the pro-slavery party of Kansas care any thing
about the moral condii ion of the nigzers, but
they must have a text, to preach from , and
the 'poor nigger' ha3 been preached in all hia
aspects through out our land.
And upon the admission of Kansas iuto the
Union under tho Leeompton Constitution, the
same pjpr says:
"Let Congress attend to their own business
and let us attend ours. We have somcthiujr
more to accomplish besides the admission, of
Kanssa into the Union. We want railroads. ! power can xnzkc 1 1 em crrow again; bur wV-r-.- ! T'
telegraphs,, churches, common schools, and
a host of other things cf minor importance ;
tut, paramount to all these, ice want peace."
And again .
"They (the people cf Kansas) arc heartily
sick aud tired cf thi iufernal nigger agita
tion; they had a surfeit of it. it ir.jurts their
business, bliists thelrjnrospoofs, and keeps up
a continual strife. Let Kausas be admitted
in;o the Uidou sotuc-ho'v or other, and w"uh
some kind of a Constitution, that we moy
Lave peace. c
These ext; acts show what we hare lways
believed and inured was the case, that it is
for power and the spoils that the Republicans
of the north whe have got up and kept alive
this controversy, are contending, and that
the people of Kansas them selves, no matter
what others may say or do, 3re rick and tired
of acitation. and mix 5 us tint U t'm?,1.1
