One of our cotemporaries endeavors to reason on the present condition of political affairs, and to state precisely the issue before ‘the people in the existing controversy. As we differ in tolo from many of the views and principles enunciat- ed by the Tribune in the article to which we refer— as we think that many of them are entirely erro- neous, and might, if assumedtto be correct, have a dangerous tendency—we proceed to state suc- cinctly our views of the whele question now be- fore the American public. We believe, in the first place, that the Tribune is wrong in charging the repeal of the Missouri compromise as the origin-of the disturbances in Kansas, and of the evils which now menace the whole country growing thereout. We have fre- quently taken occasion to say that there was no- hing wrong or objectionable in the Kansas-Ne- braska bill per se. 'The evil has grown not-out of the bill itself, but out of the violation of its provisions, Under the constitution Congress has full authority over he Territories, and consequently can either of itself determine the laws and institutions under which a Territory may exist, or can delegate that power to the inhabitante and citizens thereof. In either case—whether the power is directly exer- cised by Congress or is delegated to and exercised by the honest tona fide setters—the Spirit and in- tent of the constitution are clearly observed and carried out. If Congress think, proper to declare under what rules and regulations a Territory is to be governed until sueh time as it is prepared to throw off its Territorial character and assume that of a State, it is constitutionally justified in doing so, and there can be no valid obj thereto, because the people of all the States trom which the settlers would.be drawn are represent- «d in Congress. Neither, on the other hand, can there be any valid objection to Congress de- legating its power in the premises to the actual inhabitants of the Territory, if it think proper, as a matter of policy, and to avoid irritating des- cussions and scetional agitations in that body, so to do. There was, therefore, no violation of good faith or of sound policy in the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska bill and the abrogation of the Missouri compromise line. That law was strictly in accordance with the constitution, and if it had been faithfully executed, would probably have proved itself to be a matter ef sound and discreet polcy. As far as its passage is concerned, we entertain views differing widely from those put forward by our cotemporary—the 7rihume—and journals of like political affiuities in the North. And, as a necessary consequence of the view which we take of it, we entirely disapprove of the system of eternally assailing the Southera States and people for the existenee within their limits of the institution of slavery. As separate and independent sovereignties, the people of the Northern States have no mere right to assail the Southern portion of this republic and to libel ite people for the institutien ef slavery and for the evils resulting from that system of ‘wear Rio, and miled for Norfolk abit ‘be 27th ef July.

The brokers have gathered safficient data to show that the whole scpply of cotton for the past year, ending the Istef September, 1856, will mot vary materially from 3,510,000 bales. Few wersons, if any, believe that the supply for the exsuing year will equal that of the past, and many deabt whether the present year’s crop will equal that of last year. If the activity of consumption has been such as to require the sapply of 3,510,000 bales of last year’s receipts, it is reasonable to suppose that the world will require equally as much for the:growth and sup- ply of 1856 and 1867. Should this prove to be the case, the present crop canusot fail to prove remunerative to growers. Flour was rather heavy aad prices unchanged. Wheat was less active and prices vasier.

Pourricat FrvaxctertxG.—One of our Washing- ton correspondents states that a subscription o! thirteen thousand dollars has ‘been raised at Washington for the purpose of establishing a tremendous democratic organ in this city—that one gentleman from the South has subseribed five thousand dollars of that sum—~that there is a great deal of dissatisfaction among the sub- seribers, and that no organ has yet made its appearance in this metropolis corresponding to the hopes of those who have invested their money in the concern. Without being able to vouch for the correctness of the report in this particular case, we are very certain that large collections are taken from people who are duped hy the confidence men of all parties in the present con- test. It is very well known that in this, as well as in all other great political contests, vast sums of money are drawn from wealthy lazy people— the greater part of which money is abso- lutcly stolen by these political —_conti- dence men; and, in many instances, not a single dollar is devoted to the purposes for which it is subscribed. There are men, and women, too, both ia this city and in Washington, who live by this subscription drawn from ignorant, unwary, wealthy people, who lave This result is another great fact showing the drift of the current now rushing forward in fa- vor of an entire revolu in the present wicked government of this country.

There mast always be a large allowance made for differences in race and culture, in climate and » A great portion of the land in the Southern States could not be cultivated, nor could the resources of the South be at all loped, un- der any other system of labor thaa that which they now pursue. That fact alone, verified as it is by the history of emanci- pated Jamaica, should forever silence political aboutionists; and those who are abolitionists through mistaken views of philanthropy, should recollect that the negroes of the South have at- tained to a higher degree of civilization and Christianity than they have reached in any other region of the globe, or than they ever could hope to reach if left to themselves. They have. under the system of labor in the South, made more progress in point of physical comfort, and have approached nearer our ideas of morality and advancement, than they ever have done in and other belligerent demonstrations in which he has been engaged during his distinguished career. To that charming history must now be added this Saratoga affair, in which the Chevalier appears fighting in defence of the Church with a crack- brained professor of spiritualism. It is high time that the Chevalier retired from the tented field and gave up war's alarms tor the calm delights of peace. He has gatbered an abundant crop of laurels. He should certainly have a statue. He can furnish the brass himself, you, which it was subscribed. The greater propor- tion of it will be duly parcelled out and divided among the political camp followers aud swind- lers attached to this party, and may account for the outrageous attacks, the odious vulgarity, the shocking profanity, the foul slanders upon private character—sparing not even woman—the atrocious fasolence and ungentlemanly atiacks made upon the other candidates by certain disre- putable newspapers and certain disreputable speakers throughout the country. We also learn that about fifty thousand dollars were subscribed in New York, Boston and Phila- delphia, by each of the parties, for the purpose of carrying the State of Maine. This has made a grand haul for the vultures who hang upon every party; and it has probably been kept and divided to support these fellows in luxurious living and gambling. Such is the harvest of the stragglers who follow party fortunes during these exciting times. As a specimen of this, it is known that some two or three years ago a listinguished poli- tician and financier in this city gave to Forney— ro.—-A manifesto has made its enyearance dated the 26th of August, ot \ oatee for further assistance to maintain “peace in the Territory” of Kansas. Thus far the bloody code has not succeeded in tranquillizing the people; its paine and penalties not restored thei fidence in the fraternal g of the lawmakers, nor rebuilt a single cabin that has been burned down. Nor has the presence of the United States dragoons led to any increase of harmony. In this state of things a little soft soap and a little soft sodder have been deemed expedient. The people of this country do not approve unani- mousrly of the application of force to restrain freedom of speech, of the press, and of the con- science. They do not admire the doctrine that if a man has a sentiment opposed to slavery, and chances to utter it, he should be condemned to imprivonment, and compelled to drag p felon’s ball and chain, Under these unexpected objeo- DEATH OF ALDERMAN Mosman.

Nor is it-as some of our cotemporaries, the 7rilune among them, contend—the system of slave labor which causes the backward tendency of Virginia and other Southern States in the race of material growth and advancement. That condition springs from other causes. It ix owing to the indolence and carelessness of the proprietors of the soil, and to their want of that agricultural ecience and energy which prevail so largely at the North. The men of leisure and independence at the South are generally poli. ticiane. Those who at the North have property and wealth, are men who acquired it by their own industry; they are usually men of business, and eschew the dirty walks of politics. But even this brings its corresponding evil—for the race of Northern politicians is principally composed of briefless lawyers, adventurers, and echemers of all kinds; and it is a singular fact in our political history, that the pursuit of the mere practical Parker, leaving Mayor Wood to fight his own battle for Mayor, against a terrible feud in the Tammany camp to crush him out entirely.

The Cheva- lier Wikoff dawns upon the world during the middle of the nincteeuth century—Mre, Beecher Stowe appears at the same time, when all the ordinary subjects for romances, novels, sketches, and light literature of every kind have been exhausted. ‘The Chevalier Wikoff on one side, and Mrs. Stowe on the other, are compelled to strike out new and untried paths.

It is merely an attempt to throw dust in the eyes of the public, and to stop the current of popular indignation which now threatens to sweep away the politicians and the party who have bargained off the rights of freemen to ob- tain a new lease of abused political power. It is soft soap that will not cleanse—soft sodder that -will not mend.
