Li a letter to bis paper from Washington, Mr, Buys Enough Democrats in the Fenato are said to bo ready to vote for our admission, whenever the llepublicnni will press it to vote.

It comes up us a 'special order for and. if a vote could be had, do one doubts our admission. But Senator Sumner has charged bimsolf with a three hours' speech, wherein Kansas is not only to- bo reviewed, but the whole slavery question will be broueht up. Jeff. Davis, Douglas, Toombs, Green and others will have to reply, and thus Kansas will be strangled by its friends; Sumner's speech will kill us.

It ever has been the policy of the Democratic party to endeavor, in their National claimants, may thank the tomfoolory of such men ns Fitzpatriek, Phillips, J.une, for the failure of this appropriation, and this great wrong to Kansas.
