Those great donations cf land would more likely be made in that portion now known as Nebraska, for the want of land unoccupied in that portion now known as Kansas, and all the great improvements would be made south of us, and we never realize as great improve ments in the North' as we will or would were we to remain in cur present Hm- its.

"All the the difficulties of Kansas is now- settled." I do not so view the matter. You also say that We would be sufficiently numerous, to be admitted at once into the Union as a State, and thus become full-grown men." This last declaration yours hits the nail cn the head, and lets the cat out of the bag, as it seems to me. In the first place; the position taken in Congress on the English Bill was, you people of Kansas cannot come into the Union until you grow" very old, unless you will swallow the Lecompton Constitution, feathers and all. But if yoa will swallow it we will grease it with a heavy donation of land. Well, the people said we will not swallow it, if it is greased ail over.

Now it is evident that Kansas will make another effort to be married before she gets to be an eld maid and frcm present appearances it is likely she will succeed, and Uncle Samuel back out of the position taken. But if Kansas and South Nebraska will make up a match, and unite their families, they united, will be plenty old to come into this Union, and Uncle Sam still retain his position, and no back-out. Uncle Sam will then say the ceremony with a good grace. But time rolls on, and dissatisfaction arises, and one says we are too long; another say3 our interests are not mutual and third says, then apply to Uncle Sam for a divorce, and divide by a line not far from the Kansas river and make two families, the refractory ones north, the peaceable ones south. is very accommodating.

He grants divorce, divides the spoils, and lo! we have two families; the one white, and the other black; and all done accordiug to the glorious doctrine of popular sovereignty. H. S. W. There are a number of points in the com munications of G.
