Tlie Position of Ma*. Rates--Opin-ions of ISJC Press. The St. Louis Democrat, after fully endorsing the Republican soundness of Judge Bates' letter, insists that he "has been put forward, not as a Republican, "but as the candidate of a united Opposition.", The Democrat further remarks: "Certainly, if there he a living man who can unite Republicans, Whigs and Americans, native born and foreign citizens, under the one flag, it is the man who has all his life held the faitb which the Republican party professes, but who has not been identified with any political organization since the dissolution of the Whig party, and who, though in a measure compelled by peculiar circumstances to go for Fillmoro in '56, has never held the distinctive tenets of the American party, much less gone into its lodges or conventions. We have- never said, and do not say now, that the Republican party is not strong enough to elect whoever it may nominate, and most assuredly we sluui heartily support the nominee of the Chicago Convention but we still maintain that the nomination of Bates would give assurances of victory, which the nomination of any other man, however illustrious, could not give and that his administration would carry the principles of freedom into the very heart of braska will be given to the South, and palsy the Disunionists.

The Dayton Journal says: We publish this morning the letter of Edward Bates in reply to certain inquiries propounded to him by seven of the delegates from Missouri to the Chicago Convention. The answers to the Several questions arc as direct and clear as language can make them, and show that the writer is a Republican of the most positive kind. We cannot but commend the style and spirit of Mr. Bates' communication. It is a chapter of plain speaking without assumption or pretension. The good taste shown in the composition is only equaled by the straightforward honesty with which it expresses the opinions of
other preferences.

The same paper, after copying our politicle of Tuesday, remarks: .J A few hours after the publication of all this, Mr. Bates, if the telegraph may be credited, addressed a letter to the Chicago delegation of Missouri, disclos-
ing on his own political character every one of the marks which the Gazette here so distinctly points out He exactly fills the bill. We take it for granted that the Gazette will oppose no futher objection to Mr. Bates on the score of excessive conservatism or of deficient Republicanism. Unless the telegraph does him cruel injustice, lie has leveled,
one fell swoop, ey.ery
conceivable objection of this sort.: The Terre Haute Express has the following: -Mr. Bates hasdeclared himself firmly and positively with the Republicans, and having done so, becomes at once, in our judgement, the most prominent candidate for the Chicago nomination. No Republican, however ultra ho may be, can refuse him his support, and lie will rally around him the conservative men of the entire nation.
A "Liberty Guard" paper in Indiana says of Mr. BATES recent letter (which would make nearly two columns in that sheet) that "it is too brief to give general satisfaction." If you regard it as so very "brief," pray have courge to let your readers sec what the lifelong opinions of Mr. BATES in regard to slavery really are.'
The Cleveland Herald says that "Judge BATES is square and flat-footed on the Republican platform as regards slavery in the Territories."
The Dayton Gazette, which has heretofore expressed distrust as to the position of Mr. BATES, admits as to his late letter, "This is sound,Republican doctrine. "r—Ci'w. Gazette.
and doubtless respecting the sentiments of:its readers in regard to the necessity of-keeping back the^'Nor thern hordes" of "popular sovereigns" which threaten to overwhelm them, the News says: "What has her private hospitality to do with such a case,, an irruption upon her,of an immense horde of men, intent on their own selfish ends, and indifferent alike to her people, their sentiments and interests! And thousands of them, too, of such character and manners, that if they were to comc here, individually, again and again, it would never be thought, by a respectable man of our city, to admit any of them within his doors. During the presence of thatpromiscuous crowd, the private doors of Charleston will never have been so tightey shut & carefully guarded as then. She will confer more watching than hospital ily upon the "camp followers," who have come to swarm at the assembling of a National Convention."
Territorial Blatters.
The following extract from a dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette, from Washington, gives an accountof the probable movements in territorial affairs in Congress this session:
THE BOUNDARIES OF KANSAS. An attempt will be made in the Senate to change the line of tho proposed State of Kansas from that defined in the Wyandotte Constitution, the result of which will be to enlarge the area of tho new State so as to include settled portions of Nebraska as far North as the Platte river. Tho House will resist this al teration, and adhere to the boundaries selected by the peoplo of Kansas. If tho Senate insists upon enlarging the boundaries against the Avill of the people, at the same time depriving Nebraska of a portion of her best Territory and people, the bill for the admission of Kansas will be killed and the responsibility will rest with the Senate. Efforts wiil be made by the Government friends of Kansas and Nebraska to prevent the Senate from
taking
ii
such
action, especially as a large slicoof Nebraska will be
'ivcn to Pike's Peak
IMPORTANT TERRITORIAL CHANGES. The organization of the new Territories of Pike's Peak, Nevada and Dacotah, which has been agreed upon by the Senate Committee on Territories, will result not only in a general slicing up of the variousimportant Territories of the United States, but in entirely wiping out from the map the name of Utah, and destroying the organization, thus unseating Mr. Hooper, the delegate from that Territory. The agreement of the Senate Committee to report bills organizing Pike's Peak and Nevada Territories did not include definite!}the fixing of the lines, but 1 learn that ageneraTunderstanding prevails in the committee, that the line dividing the two Territories shall be at about the one hundred and eighth degree of west longitude, and that all of Utah cast of that line shall be included in the Pike's
Peak Territory, and all west of that line shall'be included in the Territory of Nevada.
The chairmen of two Territorial Committees, Mr. Green of tho Senate, and Mr. Grow of the House, are authorized to confer together and frame such a bill as in their judgement will receive the sanction of their several committees and the two Houses.
If this plan is adopted tho capital of the new Territory of Nevada will be removed from Salt Lake City. Pike Peak
Territory will be enlarged not only with a portion of Utah,
as
indica
ted, but will also embrace a portion of Nebraska, and probably that portion of New Mexico which projects into Kansas at the thirty-seventh parallel of latitude—the eastern line of the Territory being limited by the boundary of the proposed new State of Kansas, as lni11 il.iw-n in the Wyandotte constitution

BROTHER L.: I am yet on 1113- work, doing about the best that I can but the times are still groAving more gloomy.— Oh! how ray heart is pained within mc, while I am writing this letter, for a ir world. Brother, let mc say to the many readers of our Religious Telescope, that our work in Kentucky, as a church, is crushed, because we arc
protected by the laws of this State. A. o-reat many of our leading members are now preparing to move West. Our lives arc threatened. It is said that there was a mob of men followed me the other night to an. appointment, to whip mc, but they did not effect their purpose. On Sunday, some of our friends went to meeting armed with deadly weapons. This we are sorry to see. Lord help us to do our duty! 1 would now say that the Rev. John M. Blair and three of his sons and their families, and about oightother families, among whom is the missionary, are about to leave this State likewise. Rev. Thomas Hopper and family.

Tlie Charleston Convention. WASHINGTON, March25—Thefollowin«- call has been furnished here for publication to-morrow.
WASHINGTON, March 24.—Tho members of the Democratic National Committee are requested to meet in Washington on Thursday, April 5th, for consultation on important business a full attendance is desired.
Signed, J. E. SMALLY, Chairman. J.^R. George, C. L. Yallandigham, Julius Hesseo, Secretaries. Six or eight of the Committee are already in the city. It is understood thatno change will probably be made ^as to the place of holding the Convention, but it is^tho
ion, and in the hope that the grievances complained of at Charleston may be abated. The clamor for a change continues unabated from different sections. There is some talk from individual delegates now here of an informal call upon the ^several State delegates to confer at the same time with the Democratic National Committee on the above named subject.
Search the Scriptures. We suppose the mass of intelligent people have an idea that the Republican party is from four to five years of age. In this matter such badly posted persons must learn better, and in their struggle after knowledge a "little child shall lead them."
On Sunday last a lady was listening to her class of juveniles in Sunday School. The lesson was in Christ's
Ser
mon oil the Mount, in the 5th chapter of Matthew, wherein our Savior descants upon the beatitudes, and upon love to our neighbor. There was a little litch upon the 46th verse, until it came to a bright eyed, rosy checked little girl, who, with that commendable pride and promptness which characterizes tho child who knows she is perfect in her lesson, gave the verse thus: "For if ye love them that love you what reward have ye? do not even the Ro-publicans the same?"

Dr. Itoback'S Scandinavian Blood Pills and Blood Purifier.
"The blood is the life," says Scripture so says Science also. Expel corruption from tho blood and no disease can exist in tho system. My Blood Pills and Purifier perform their task effectually. They are powerful vegetable detergents, and cure all forms of disease, which arise from impure blood, simply because they remove the common causes of disease from the life-sustaining fluid. Hence their apparently miraculous cures of scrofula, eruptions, tumors. dyspepsia, liver complaints, rheumatism, swellings of the joints, and all affections of tho internal organs, which do not proceed from malformation. See advertisement:
MCLEAN'SSTRENGTH RN IN a CORDIAL.— This remedy has been before the public only a short time, but it proved to be an invaluable remedy to psrify the blood and Strengthen the system every one who uses it reconimcnds it toothers, until it has become the standard remedy with every family in the United States. We say to every reader, try itit is a delightful aromatic. See advertisement in another column.
