Kansas Diacatty.
Correspondence of lb Bsltimor Bud.
Armed resistance against the law of the
Union tbat i, "domestlb losurroction," it
to be put down by the whole power of the
Union Tbitt ia tbe tboory of tbo Conititu
I'roo. the issue Lai beon aoveral timca
mode u between the United Statua and
(Slate authoritiea, but itt trial baa alwaya
liech avoided by aome backing out or com
promise. In regard to the Kansas question, and
tie violence threatened by the Missouri
people, it baa been alleged that it waa the
President 'i duty to interfere for the preser
vation of order. This ia not so. There is
bo possible occasion or pretext for tbe inter
position of the Federal power) as tiiattcra
now stand. The President has neither legal
right nor powor to protect Gov. Rccder by
furnishing liim with a body-guard on ac
tountofllio illegal threats of Stringfullow
and olhors to take his life.
Rut Governor Rceder lias the legal means
in bis power, and within bis reach, for his
own protection, in caso of necessity. In
regard to the cases of cut i touted election, tbe
President has no power to adjust them.
Tbo legislature of Kansas must decide nil
'questions concerning elrctions to its own
body. When tho caso of nrnied resistance
to tho laws shall occur in Kansas, the Presi
dent may call out the militia to suppress
insurrection; and should he call upon
"Messrs. Stringfullow and his Missouri ran
gers, it would bo an aggravation of tho
'trouble.
Upon the border State of Missouri, he
'might secure the services of tbe insurgents
themselves, with Stringfellow at thoir head.
Militia from other States, or the regular
army, must be relied upon in such an ex
tremity, and after all, it would be found
difficult to manage a refractory State.
The Virginia Kteelloa.
Tbe politicians for the most part are com
pletely dumbfounded by the result of tbe
Virginia election, and the modes of account
ing for it are as various as the feelings which
tbo result has inspired. The National In
telligencer makes the following suggestions
in regard to tbe difficulty of effecting polit
ical changes in Virginia :
'The people of Virginia are peculiar in several
respects. They are not only good tulken, but they
are equally good listeners; that is, they delight in
public speaking; Uiey eipeet their public men to
address them in public assembly, and they are open
to great influence from commanding oratory.
They are, moreover, a people of tradition; they
nre attached to their historical names, and espe
ciolly to what are culled the "Virginia doctrines;"
to which many a worthy cilixen proclaims his de
votion with very little idea what they are. They
ouly know that tho resolutions of '98 were passed
by men whose names have come down as house
hold words; that their fathers voted for them, and
so must they; and, having taken their side and
publicly recorded their vote when first they exer
cised the right, the vita eoce mode has great influ
ence afterwards in preventing a change. There
is respectability in consistency, they think, and
so we confess there is, however poor it may be as
a reason. We have seen a man in this old State
who voted for Mr. Polk for the sole reason that he
had voted for Mr. Jefferson."
The English Estimate of Ike Value of
Nawoleoa't lAfe.
The recent attempt to kill the Emperor of the
French produced a greater sensation in England
lhaa in France. The English seem suddenly to
discover that the alliance between the Western
powers haogs'by the sleuder thread of the life of
one man, whose life is daily in peril from the thou
sands of deadly enemies made by him in his un
scrupulous march to imperial power. As a speci
men of the tone of the English press, wo quote
from the Liverpool Times;
"The narrow escape of Louis Napoleon from the
bands of death has fixed attention on the loss which
Europe and the world, and mere especially Eng
land, would have sustained had tho aim of the
monster been more true had the fatal weapon ex
ecuted ita work of destruction. France no doubt,
would have been instantly in a blaxe. All the
elements of disruption would have been called into
immediate play. The two branches of the Bour
bons would have struggled for the throne, the Red
Republicans would not have been idle, and the
supporters of the present dynasty wonld have at
tempted, of course, to shift for themselves. An
outbreak, involving civil war, mast inevitably have
followed. The very worst passions of the belliger
ents would have been evoked. With the heart of
the empire thus convulsed, the limhs would have
become paralysed. The prosecution of the war
against Russia would have been neglected the
alliance with England might have been severed.
The truth is, that the life of Louis Napoleon is at
present the most valuable life in existence more
depends on it than any other life. This is less an
opinion than a fact."
The London Times thundered in liis same strain,
commencing iU artiste on the attempted assassina
tion with the exclamation, "On what slender
threads hang the destinies of natioua '." The posi.
tioa of England, if the Emperor of France should
die at this juncture, waoM bo embarrassing and
perilous in the extreme. She would have every
thing to fear but invasion. liar wooden wall
would prevent that In tie revolutionary war that
would most eeruinly break out, she wonld be "out
of the ring," at least until after a revolution in her
own policy. That she hss quaked at the narrow
escape of Napoleon, and shuddered at the revela
tion of the gulf on tbe brink of which she hangs,
and that her solicitude for the safety of tbe "crown
ad out-throat waa rules over France," is therefore
quite accountable-Cut. ConvmerciaL
