From the Blufftsn Banner. DR. HULBURT. Editor of Banner:—The age in which we live is one more pregnant wi:h interest to the eye of the philosopher and philanthropist, that any previous epoch in the history of the world. lam reminded of this fact by the reading of Dr. Hulburt’s Circular, and from which I learn hr is to visit your town periodically for sum -time; and it is with much pleasure that I am able to say to your readers that I have long known Dr. Hulburt. Few if any, have secured a more enviable popularity. His knowledge and power over disease, acquired by long and successful practice is pel hap . unsurpassed by any man living. In addition to his eminent .-kill in tl.e art of healing, he lias assistant in the person of his wife, whose psychological powersis, to say Che least, very miraculous. The editor of the Fort Wayne Times of last week informed its readers that Dr. Hulburt promises to give a philosopbocai explanation of his treatment and the success he has met with, in some future number of the Times. Let me anticipate the Ductor somewhat. The proper diagnosis of disease is considered by medical men the difficult part of their profession. When disease can be properly defined, the remedy may be applied with ease and certainly. In Mrs. Hulburt’s examination of the Dr.’s patients, she comes in rapport with them tn such a manner as to feel their pains and all the sensations which may have been produced by their disease, in her own system, the same as if they were really her own, and the Dr. is thus enabled to determine their diseased condition. The proper and healthy action of every organ is controlled by the vitul fluid — ro called or magnetic forces of the body, which are the life of every organ, and their disease is occasioned either by weakness or want of proper supply of this magnetic life principle, or an in harmony in its action, wltich may be reetored or harmon z- 1 by natures truest means ths magnetic power of a healthy and highly m.ig ndic operator, or the administration of specific remedies so assitt nature or the magnetic forces. Hence Dr. Hulburt’s success. Wm B. BRITTINGHAM, M. D. Fort Wayne, March 24 1853.

Asa means of moral and intellectual improvement, the Sunday-school, with its adaptation to meet the wants of the children—with the Bible for its text-book—with its gratuitous instruction—with its cheap and attractive library of sanctifying literature circulated weekly through the entire neighborhood—and with all the other

pleasing and purifying influence atiending it, certainly deserves the favor and oersonai assistance of every Christian, Patriot and Philanthropist. M iy I not therefore confi lently expect that such assistance as you can render will be freely given? D > you know of anv neighb>rh ' J destitute of a Sunday-school, where one might be organized with, some reasonable prospect ol pernnnence? If bo, could you not take some msasure to induce the people to organize one? Or, if you could not consistently do this, would you please inform me o f the facts? and I will gladly (it practicable) visit the place, and tty to bring about an organization. Do you know of any school or schools in want of a library or any other books or helps? If so, will you please inform them of my agency, and that it is my duty and pleasure to furnish them when they have raised the necessary funds; and request them to come or write to inc and I will do the best 1 can for them.

.Monarchy vs. Democracy. The London Times is in favor of Lsi compton, and has a lengthy leader on the I subject, in which, however, there are not ■ a few misstatements. Prominent among • t hem is this: ■ ‘Now/says the “Times” 'eren allow--1 ing that the Convention which framed ' the Lecompton constitution was duly con- : stituted, the question is, whether Con--1 gross, looking to the circumstances of the case, should admit it. Tite South is, of course, eager in the affirmative,’ because, argues the “Times,” ‘the admission of Kansas would, for the present at least, give two prosl tverv votes in the Senate.’ here does the “Times” get this information? Ex telly the reverse is true. Instead of two additional pto-sl .very votes in lr>e Sen tte, the aduii"i >n of K <;>• sas under the Lecompton swindle woul I give us two Abolition voles. This needs no proof. We are not surprised that the London Times sustains Lecomptoni«m, nor are we surprised to see the “Union” quoting the infamous libeler of America aty! Americans in f tvor of the admi-sion of Kansas under its patronage. It is but natural that the L indon Times would and should adopt as its own, and use all its influence to sustain the greatest outrage that has ever been attempted on the Democracy of America. L-comptonism is after the heart oi English Toryism, and nothing can be more opposed to American Democracy than the said English Toryism. The greatest struggle recounted in modern history took place between these opposing powers. 4 merican Democracy was the immortal victor From Lexington to Yorktown, from Bunker Hill to Saratoga, the fight went bravely on until the representatives of English Toryism delivered their swords into the hauds of the new power, the victorious Democracy. England, no dcabt, would like to see her old tight resumed bv Americans on Kansas, or anv other field. The L >ndon Times gladlv gives its aid to the purpe?'-; the Herald, the Swiss of the Anglo-A merican press, of course joins in; and the “Union,” not having an idea of its own thankfully accepts anything, even from an English Tory source, which supports . Lecompton. No doubt the London Times backs up Lecompton on the same ground that Lord Napier does. His lordship is a constant attendant at the Senate debates on i the admission of Kansas. He seems to enjoy them much; and. it is said, is very strongly enthusiastic in favor of Lecompton, because as he says, it is the most , monarchical measure yet brought before the American Democracy for their adoption. , ql , . , .. -ue to the tenor of the article in the London Tinies. Thus L-comptonism endears itself to English politicians, because of its being monarchism; and the anti Lecomptonites are oppose!, on account of their Democracy, by the same English Tories. It would seem’ then, on these grounds, rl at we have a monarchical party and a Democratic party in America; the Lecompton men claiming the title of monarchists, and the State-rights men naturally representing the Democracy, on which the nation was founded The question then comes up. which shall triumph, monarchy and Lecompton, or Democracy and Slate-rights? States.

A True Democrat. The New Albany (Ind.) Ledger, one of the papers which ti was attempted to corrupt bv a 841” advertisement, copies the following resolution of the Ohio Democratic Convention, an I comments thereon with true Democratic fervor: 'flesolred. That the only test of party fealtv which we acknolwedge are those prescribe I bv the tegtilarlv-constituted National Convention* ot the Democratic partr, an 1 we Indignantly repudiate the attempt to make the admission of Kansas under the L-comp’on Constitution a test of Democratic ortho loxy.’ This last resolution, by the way, is one which is exactly to the point and which accords with our own views of the subject Nop >wer on earth has the right to make an issne of its own creation a testof fidelity to the Democratic party, except a regular National Convention, whose delegates are chosen expressly for that purpose. Every man who voted for James Bochnnan and adheres in good faith to the platform constructed at Cincinnati in June, 1856. is a good Democrat. ami in full connection with the partv until another convention is held and another platform adopted. No President an Ino number of Members of Congress can m ike a test of Democracy contravening the Doctrines laid down in the Cincinnati platform. XVhen a new convention is held and a new- platform adopted, if there are any whocann.it rot,scieniiou*lv star.d upon it, tbev will of course seek other political affiliations more congenial to their feelings. But till that time, all who stand upon the Cincinnati platform, and support nominees pledged to sustain that platform, must be regarded as Democrats. It is sheer folly for Government organs and Congressional caucusses to talß about reading such out of the partv. The L-compton;tes amuse themselves by charging that the anti-Lacomptonites are plaving second fiddle to the Black R'dublicins. It ir. well they place us second, says the Louisville Democrat, lor they are playing the first fiddle; and, what is the most comical part of their position, they don’t seem to know-it.

i Congressional News. Washington, March 23. Senate —The Senate is again crowded. Unimportant preliminary business transacted. Mr. Green replied, denying ti e assserlions of the Senator from Michigan that the friends of Lecomton have been driven from their positions. The Senator from Illinois implied the same thing, but it was not the case. The committee report stands unchanged; its every individual charge is sustained by official evidence. and the only exception taken to the report is by the senior Senator from Vermont who objects to the use of the iiar~h appellation of rebels. lie made some desultory and preliminarv remarks in reply to the Senators from Michigan. Illinois and Vermont, and dien went into the main line of the argument, s .t ing that the Kansas Government was a Government de facto quite as much as in the case of California, even if you admit that alledged frauds were committed. He drew a parallel between the cases of Kansas and California, citing Mr. Douglas’ opinion on the latter, in support of his own views on the former. He said the statement that nineteen counties were disfranchised was meant to deceive. Those counties were wilderness without inhabitants. He defended the legality of the eally steps toward the formation of the Lecompton Constitution, and denied the assertions of the Senator from Vermont, (Mr. Foster) that there were broken pledges on lite part of XV alker and the President. Everybody knows that that Walker was in favor of submitting the Constitution to the people. He advocated i’, but had no power to pledge it. The Senator from Illinois says the only reason they did not submit the whole Constitution, was because it was said that 'it would be voted down. Who said so? Noone buttlie Senators from Illinois and Michigan. The great question is. does the Constitution embody the will of the people, which is Ug i y expressed. ‘W ili rules.’ The evidences are the same in equity and law, and we cannot take flying rumors and opinions of Governors as evidence;! ‘that is fraught with a danger, that if car ried, its ultimatum would bring bristling . baronets and cannon pointed at the walls i <>f the capita)—to substitute the opinions of a mob for lite forms of law. All the, legal forms being complied with in com ; [deling the Lecompton Constitution, it was a completed enactment, and the people had no right to vote whether or not it was a Consti ution. What would the Senator say if the Constitution of theii ■own State, after being in active operation. w ’.resubmitted to the people Senator from Kentucky says it could do no harm, and would only show abundant cause to submit again and again to the people. ‘Yes try again.’ Col. Fremont would have liked tuat principle, to try again, and as to the cry of fraud it reminded him. but he would not apply the maxim to the Senator, “that a lie well stuck to and often repeated is as good as .truth.’ ■ Mr. Green continued to analyze the reported frauds; admitting that frauds did ■ xi»t; but not to vitiate the Convention. Further than this no legal evidence *x ists to show that this Lecompton Constitution does not embody the will of ’he p-ople; and if we go beyond the legal evi ience, w- strike at the very principles of liber v. He admitted that the S< n tors ’ton, Ihiriuis, Michigan. California and K' iituckv, were not innueneed in ti.etr act by the exis'ence or non existence »i slavery; but they were assisting to build no a party dangerous to the Union, and whose fundamental principles justly enunciated is no more slave States. Had it not bee* for these, Kinsas, manv weeks; since would have been a young sister in the confederation of States. Arm.ng oilier things Mr. Green said the Black Republicans were crushing out the true Democracy in its course, and would never meet its barrier till it meets the cannon of the South. He concluded hy expressing his ardent aspirations for the consolidation and permunancy of the Democratic party It ■ was of no importance, that General Calhoun has given certificates to the free State party. The principle involved is one vital to the South and North, for the interests of both are so interwoven that they cannot be severed without injury to both. Mr. Green then referred to the statement of .Mr. Douglas, that the Constitution can only be changed before 1861 bv the exercise of a revolutionary t ight — This was not so. In New York and other Spates the provision was inserted. The people must have the right to change the Constitution in a legal wav; otherwise they could not regulate their affairs, but would be bound by pteceeding generations. In summing up, he said he would ap- ■ peal to Americans to build up a Demo- • cratic party, but would a»k them to help 1 breakdown the only party dangerous to ’ both. Mr. Crittenden of K“ntarkv, «=• ] lie ' would not re open the debate," but made • an < xplanation that his statements were made on official records and not on conversations with Governors of Kansas t Thank God, he could distinguish ri---ht from wrong, and had courage to say so. t He followed notahe convictions of party. The Kentucky maxim—‘be just and fear , not,’ was also his He -believed that his • course wa< best for the North and for the South. He wished aeither U build un

nor break down any party. He made an affectionate reference to his compatriots of the Senate, when the Senate was a great hodv;and included among ttsmem- . hers Clay." Calhoun. Webster and Benton. He proses-ed himself an American, and it was his principle to protect the ballat- • box as the only instrument by which Hie . people can exercise their soveriegnty. i ‘ When Mr. Crittenden concluded, Mr. i Green, without further remarks, moved > three amendments. Mr. Graen withdrew the Minnesota bill altogether, and moved three amendments to the original bill. Firstly, to strike out ' the preamble and insei t the following: Whereas-, the people of the lerritory: of K insas did by a convention of delegates a’ Lecompton on the 9lh of S'-p’orn-ber, 1857. form 'or tbemselv-s '■ <' ; solution and State Government, which said convention having asked admission of the Territory into the Union as a State, etc. Carried. Secondly. To amend the second section bv inserting the following clause: That nothing in this act shall be construed to abridge or infringe any right of the people asserted in the Kansas Constitution, at all times to alter, reform or abolish their form of Government in such a manner as they m -v think proper—Congress I hereby disclaiming any authority to intervene or declare the construction of any system of States, except to see that it is republican in form, and not in conflict with the Constitution of the United States — The amendment was agreed to —yeas 31 nays 23. Thirdly, A vi-rbal amendment in the 11th line of the second section to the bill to cancel the word ‘of’ in the sentence in the ordinance of said Constitution, and substitute therefor the words ‘nnm-Xed to’ making it read in the ordinance annexed Ito said Constitution. Carried. Mr. Pugh withdrew his amendment of Marek 21 to the amendment of Mr Green ! : and substituted another, setting forth that 'Federal laws are not inapplicable to be j ■extended into the State ol Kansas, and . /hat a Judicial District be formed, and' that, a Judge, District Attorney and U. S, ( Marshall be appointed and paid as in lowa. The amendment was agreed to—yeas, 37; nays. 19. Mr. Crittenden moved a substitute for the bill in substance that the Constitution , formed bv the Lecomp'on Convention be ; submitted to the people of Kansas now; > and that if if be approved, the President shall admit Kan;as by proclamation. If i it be rejected, the people of the Tt rritory t shall cal] a Convention and form a new Constitution. 1 The substitute makes a special provi- < r ’ :o 3e%e?aT‘6e'r:a"tors here took occasion to i txp'.ain their votes. Mr. Kennedy, of Maryland, as a con- t servatiee, noddle man, would support t Mr. Crittenden’s substitute, reserving “ 1 the right afterwards to vote for the orig- J inal bill, in obedience to n resolution pas- ■ sed by the Legislature of his State. i Mr. Pugh, of 0.. reluctantly voted against it for the same reason. i Mr. Iverson, ol Ga., defended his position. I Mr. Green accepted the suggestion of another verbal alteration - Mr Crittenden’s substitute was then put and )<i<t. Yeas 24. nays 34. The bill as amended to admit Kan-i sas into the Union was thvti pul and pas- ! sed—yeas 33, nays 25. The vote is as follows: 4 eas—Alien’ Bavnrd.

C., paired off, with Cameron, of Pennsylvania, The announcement of the result was received with applause and hisses. Senate then adjourned Leeomptun is not Democracy. The btier of the Hon. Mr. Groesbeck, one of the Democratic Rvprtsentalives of Hamilton county in Congress, to the Cincinnati anti-Lecomptondemonstration, scouts the plea of expediency on the ad- * mission of Kansas, and shows up the supporters of this stupendous fraud in its true light. He says, without hesitation, that this first attempt to force a Territory into the Union is not Democracy, and so say the people. Read Mr. G.’s closing paragt ah: “T .ere have been great irregularities, heretofore, in the proceedings under which lirrttory have prepared to become State*, and tn the absence of an enabhnir ac:, there :s no : xed rule to pursue. But i' is may be said of ail the previous cases. There was satisfactory evidence of the acquiesce nce ot t |, e p ( ;.p) e Having this, n regularities could be overlooked. Now, for the firs’, time in cur history, it is sought to eompe] a people to accept a constitution which they have, not impliedly, but expressly ar, ! promptly, rejected. This i» not Democracy. I rejoice to say it has no precedent in the past, and let us hope for cur country’s sake, it may not become r precedent for the fu’nre. “Very re»pectfully. ’’W. S Groessxck ’’ 1
