CAROLINA SPARTA!
HON. J1SKS BUCHANAN.
We do not propose to examine Mr. 1
C'vanau's career in reference to those qti
lions which are now obsolelo. It is su
cient that lie should appear clear on th
questions which now agitato the count
and which are likely to outer into legi?
tion. These qur *:>ns are?Internal 1
provements, the Tariff, and Slavery. A
wo w ill discuss his position ou those qu
lions in their order.
When Mr. Buchanan first camo ii
public life, the principlosof tho Ifeiuocrn
party were far from being clearly defin
Loose ideas prevailed as to the power ofi
Government, and thoeo questions wh
afterwards divided the Whig And Don
cralic parties were just forming. Acco
ing'j* wo find even Mr. Calhoun voting
measures which, at later periods, and w
a maimer experience, ho opposed. Th
remarks apply with special force to I
question of internal improvements. 1
C umberland.Bond bill was brought forwi
and urge%P as a groat national work U{

appropriations were made, and Cougr
became involved, by its contracts and <
gagements, in a position of difliculty. 1

Mr. Buchanan camo to Congress ; and i
dor this state of facts he had to mako <
course. What was Mr. Buchanan's com
In 1822 Mr. Buchanan voted agai
the Ouniberland Road.
In January, 1825, tho ''bill for couth
ing appropriations to tho Cumberla
Road" was brought forward in tho Hot
of Representatives, and, upon the final vc
Mr. Buchanan voted iw/y, with Mr. ^
Duflie, Mangnm, of N. C., and Wilson,
8. C. ltul the bill was passed, and t
Government became still inoro deeply co
milted.
In February, 1827, tho measure v
again brought forward, and, in tho deb;
upon "tho bill for lite preservation of t
Cumberland Road," Mr. Buchanan u?
tho following language:
"Congress had passed upon tho quosti<
tho road had been laid, bridges had bo
erected, and to stop at such a point a wc
commenced under the faith of an act
Congress, was hot, in his view, conapatil
with tho dignity or good faith of the G<
crnmonL"
Pending the discussion, ho offered n
carried, with tho asistance of Mr. McDufl
and others from South Carolina, an aincr
inent to reduce the appropriation from ?5
000 to $30,000. But conceiving that t
policy of tho Government was fixod, a
that nothing was left but to carry it o
Mr. Buchanan, on tho passage of the b
voted aye; Mr. McDulfie again voting w

In the saino year a bill was brought f
ward "authorizing a subscription," on t
part of Congross, to the Chesapeake and Ol
Canal, and Mr. Buchanan voted vay% w
some of the Representatives from Sou
Carolina.
In 1820, on the bill "to construct I
Cumberland Road woslwardly from Zan
ville," Mr. Buchanan voted nay. Soon af
this ho left Congress and went as Miuisl
to Russin.

bill was Again brought forward, and, durii
the debate, Mr. Buchanan said:
"Why, then, do 1 vote for this appropr

I am convinced that the princijtlce whi

system of appropriating money for tl

thus have been diverted from tho gre

to decido this question for himsoir, at
each decision would have beon a prccedci

system was to proceed to snch an exter
that, instead of legislating for the great i

fiom tho Treasury, to be expended ou roa<

y Abstract of Koport of lantis Cozuuiiltce.
The repoit shows that as soon as the l>i!l
to organise the Territory of Kansas was
Biased, a large number of the citizens of
Usouri wont into the Territory, and held
l?*" squatter meetings, passed resolutions dol?"
uounciiig abolitionism, and declaring that
c>w) slavery existed therein. '
T? In the Auluinn of 1854, a secret political
''H" society, called the Blue Ixrdge, was formed
,n* ?the plan of operations, oaths, <feo., of
n" which are given by the reporL This Lodge
ov controlled tho subsequent movements and
invasions on the part of tho Missourians.
I,.? During tho winter, very great cxciloII,c
lueut existed ou account of the invasion,
public meetings wero held, and inuch bit[h?
ter feeling was manifested. In February,
lc'' 1855, a census was taken, and the number <
l,?" of legal voters was ascertained to be 2,905. <
It was also discovered that on the 30th of <
|ur March, 1855, several days beforo the oloc- ,
lion, active preparations went on in Mis- (
C8U souri, whore a coinpleto organisation was ,
[',0 effected.
',0 Loaders wore appointed; tents, provisions,
U,1 ainmuuHion and arms distributed, and the
>on forces were divided into companies iu Mi*ua'
souri; and ou the day of election at least >
088 5,000 citizens of Missouri, it is testified, i
?n* took up their lino of inarch for Kansas. ?
',e Companies went into every council and ropresentaiivo
district of that Territory but ,
,n" "one. The groat mass of testimony con- ,
5Ul sists in detailing tho acts and sayings of ,
these companies. ,

>l0? about G,."300 votes, five thousand wcro those *
'c" of lion residents. Tho majority of memv'
hers of both houi.os of the Legislative As- ^
bo scmbly, the Committee say, would havo
m" been Free Stale men had there been no
invasion of Missoutiaus. Ylio (iovernor
ras sot aside the result of the elections in some c
of the districts on account of informalities. v
',e A new election took placo therein on the y
ed 22d of May, but this did not affect the ro- v
result. Froo State men wore chosen in
>n? those districts, except Leavenworth, where
en thoro was illegal voting.
The Committee took a large mass of tosti- ?
rnony regarding the proceedings oftho Leg- ^
IJlo islativo Assembly, which they say ancliar)V"
acterized by recklessness and injustice.
They likewiso sjreak <>f tlwj crimes, such as
murders and robberies, which wore frequent, j,

?d- of Mcltac, (a free Stato man,) was thero
Or any arrest, indictment, or prosecution for

Tho conclusions of the Cuinmittco arc
yb that each of the elections in Kansas was (
carried by invasions from Missouri ? that
'lb the Legislative Assembly is an illegally con- '
stiluted body, and therefore has no power
or' to pass valid laws. For these reasons its v
be enactments are void. Tho election of J. W. s
no Whitfield was not held under any valid
'l*' law, nor was tho election of Keedcr held in
'tb nccordanco with law. The Committee sug
gest uo remedy. 11

la the Senate, oa tbu 30th, Mr. Douglai, from
ha Committee oa the Territories, made volu- <o
aiuoua report on the virions hills for the settle- so
nent of the difficulties in Kansas. sp
It oonluins an elaborate argument in favor of the tr
lew bill reported by the committee, which provides ^
'or the appointinenl of Ave commissioner* to be
ilooted from difl'creut sections of the Unlon, to rep w
resent fairly all political parlies. hall Use a O
:rn?u? of all the legal votes in the Territory end sti
make a fair apportionment of tho Delegates to be jj,
fleeted in etieh country, to nssumble and form a
Constitution and State Government. When the
apportionment shall have been tl us mode, the Commissioners
shall remain in necsiou every day except
Sunday, at a place the most convenient to the
inhabitants of the said Territory, to hear all oom - j*
plaints, examine witnesses, and correct all orrors,
in said list of voters, which shall be previously tr
printed and generally circulate*! through tke terrilory,
and posted in at least three of the most public I w
placet* in each voting precinct in eocli county . Ho
Boon as all tho errors shall hsvo keen thus correct- '
ed in said I'sts, the Commissioners arc requested to
cause the corrected list of Ivgnl voters to be print- ,
e?l, and copies furnished to voch judge of the oleclion,
to be put up at the ploo-s of voting, and cir- !
culatcJ in every eouuty of tho Territory bcf??ro tho .
day of the election. No person shall bo allowed
l?> vote whose name does not appear n? ? legal to- '
tor; tho elootion for delegate* to lake place on tho 1
Jay of the Presidential election, and the Convention JV
to assemble on the lirst Monday in December, to
decide first whether it lie ux|M-diont for Kansas to |J!
come into the Union at that time, and if so decided,
to proceed to form a Constitution and State Govern- j 11
meat, which shall ho republican in form, and ad- '
initted on an equal looting with the original States.
The bill provides that no law shall be of force, rl
or enforced in the Territory, infringing the liberty *"
of ?j?e?ch or of the press, or tho right of the people *1
to beer arms, <S:c. It also provides for punishing
illegal voting or frauds and violence at the election,
and authorizes the umc of a military force for that 111
purpose. The main point is that the present inhabitant*
shall decide all points iu dispute in Kan- Ul
as, at a lair election, without fraud or violence, or "
any other improi?cr influence. All white male in- r
habitants over the age of 21 years arc to be allow- al
ed to vote, if they linve resided in the country and
Territory three month* previous to the day of olec- '
lion, and no other test shall he required, nu oath to L
support the fugitive slave law, or any other law, nor 01
snv other condition whatsoever.

tution, resulting in its rejection?yea* 10a, nays l'

This result w.v* succeeded by the clapping of ! ^
bauds, and other demonstrations of joy on the part ! !'
of the opponcuts of th?? measure, while tho friends
of the bill exhibited signs of disappointment and *.
mortification.
On tho next day Mr. Barclay, of Pennsylvania, C
who had voted against the hill the previous day, ^
moved a roeons.deration of tho vote by which the
Kansas hill was rejected, and in amignilig his rea- n
sons for doing so smd that ho was informed that !i
warrants w* ro in the District directing the arrest of 11
ex-Govcroor Hee ler for trauson. This was regard- ^
e?i ns inrciai. una no was iti?|ms?-d to rebuke it by ?|

previous weekly report of the cotton market closed
on a brisk demand fur the article, at prices rangiug
from 84 a 10J cents. In reviewing the week just
brought to a ckas, we have but few remarks to
make on the state of the market. The demand h..s
bccu steady and nnifurni, st full prices, and if there
had been a supply of the article on sale, a large and
a live business would doubtless liare been done; as
