away from the box-office unable to obtain admission,'
while a great number of those inside were compelled to
content themselves with a fair view of the dome and

were "Our American Cousin,' and " Toodles,” the
novelty a new comedy by Plana*, entitled "Ise

Mr. Peron stated that he desired to reply to the 1

whilst' he made the other day and he oared not
shother he spoke on the resolution or on the point

tog the rights of t e koZT R /bey never emote%
:he Senator from Georgia to be judge as to the
soundness oflheir Democracy. He repudiated the
sentiment that the position of Senator Douglas on
Territorial rights was akin to the Wilmot Proviso,
or anti-Demooratio, and read from a-speech in the
Conventional Globe, showing that Cass sustained
the same position.
Ho also quoted from the speech delivered by
Mr. Iverson himself in the Home of Represents:
lives eleven years ago, whioh was as strong in sup
port of non-Intervention views as Cap famous
Nicholson letter or Douglas' Freeport speech. He
referred to the instruotions sent by the Georgia
fmgislature to her Senators, when the Kansas-I
Nebraska bill was up, in fawor-of non•interven—
lion., And, he said, he stood on the Georgia plat-!
tom. He proceeded to reply to the remark of
Mr. Owin, that had he understood the Kansas
bill when • ho voted fur it as expounded
by Douglas, ho would never have given that vote,
by saying that Mr. Groin did not vote of hie own
motion, but was instruotod by the California Le.
gislatere to give that vote, and that the Legiela
tare wrote down for hire, in that instruction, what
it thouyht the KatiesteNebraska bill meant.
Mr. Owls. I voted before the instructions got
here.
Mr. Peon. I do not suppose the Senator
pretends that be is a better exponent of
the views of his Stet° thee biz Legis
lator° is. Now, having read the non-inter
vention platform of Georgia, I propose to read
the squatter sovereignty platform of California.
He then went on to remark that this odious epi
thet, squatter sovereignty, whioh has been used to
frighten the people from their propriety, was in
vented for the benefit of California, and was first
applied to her in theformation of her State Conatitu
' tion, in which Mr. Uwin hiquielf took an active
part. The Looompton Constitution was squatter
sovereignty. He did not see any safe ground upon
whioh the advocates of the Leoompton Constitution
,01114 stand foe one moment if the doctrine an
nounced by Mr. Iverson is to he the doctrine of the
Democratic party. Having quoted the sentiments of
the California Legislature while the Kansas Lill was
ap, Mr. P. then proceeded to read the Democratic
platform adopted in California since the last
tension of Cong ress, which Is Itkoest literally copied
from the Ohio platform, drawn up by Dr. Pugh
itimself, De stated what he understood the Kan.
sat-Nebraska bill to mean L adopting for that pur
pose the lenguage of the President, who signed
the bill; giving hie own interpretation of it as
found In the message of January 2-ith, 1856. Ho
also quoted the resolutions adopted by the Florida
Legislature in Beeember, 1847, in support of his
poiltion. He said his objeot erae to show
that an attempt is now being nettle, pontrary
to the opinions formerly entertelned by the Legls
latures of the Southern Staten, to break through
the principles of the Compromise of 1809, and to
break through the covenant of the Xantiall bill,
and on that text to preach sermons on the scent'.
nos or the unsoundness of the Northern Demoora
ey. Hequoted from Mr. Girlie's speech in Crass
Valley, California, where it is stated that Mr.
Douglas was deposed from the chairmanship of
the Territorial Committee on soommt of his
views on the ICappea bill. He would not stand
up here to defend Mr Douglas , who was
an able speaker for himself. If he was exfill
ed from that committee for that meson,they
might thereby be compelled to expel ninety-ndo
nandredths of tlets Demooraoy in every non-slave
holding State. It was no longer a question of in
dividuals, but of principles and insfead of assail.
i
log a man who was absent, t would be merit. manly
to do as Mr. Iverson did, and arraign the entire
P eri/
lie could see nothing in the Lecompton ease that
ought to divide Democrats, or make it nemeserY to
change the Committee on Territories. But the
facts of the ease seemed to show that Mr. Douglas
was not removed for that cause. After he bad
made his epeech In the Senate denouncing the Le.
eouletton Oenetitution, and taking Issue with the
Administration, and almost the entire body of Do
moored° Senators, North and South, the Senate
proceeded to put him again at the bead of the
Territorial Committee, and he remained there un
til the Leoompton controversy was dead and. bu
ried. Now, the avowal Is,. that be was not re
moved for that cause , but because he bad the mis
fortune
to entertain opinions which are entertained
by almost the entire body of the Demooratio party
in the North. He would appeal to his brethren in
the Northern Stated whether they rooognise thin
as a test of Democratic fellowship? If, as the
Senator from California has proclaimed, you are
parties to this, eat at drospltation, do you mean to
have it go forth to the country that whoever enter
taini 'hese opinions is Qat to be a member of the
Demooratle party?
Mr. Rica, of Minnesota. Z was a party to the
transaction and uphold It.
Mr. Yuan wont on to refer to the usage of the
Senate on the subject of committees : First. Never
to displace a Senator without his consent, and ee
-1 oond, never to promote any one elan over him. lie
' was soon going out of &alienate, and would there
fore frankly , declare that this maga was intolera
bly bad. It was a usage which has operated to
give the Senators from the elaveholding States the
chair on every single committee controlling
publio , butiness. The Senator from lllinole was
the only exception, and he has been decapi
tated. .Now; ho thought the simplest way out of
all this controversy was to do justice, sad put
down alt these attempts, from one section of the
Man or the other, to disturb the platform of the
Democratic party. He regretted the excitement
prevailing at present on the slavery question.
The proceedings In the Bones of Representatives,
well us in some of the State Legislatures, ought
to admonish us that we have fallen on evil times.
We hour defiance and threats from ono quarter
and the other, whioh aro fraught with danger to
this glorious Union.
Mr. Ivsneon said he would take 60E10 further
occasion to respond to these remarks of Mr. Pugh
whioh were applicable to himself, and aloe to ven
tilate some other subjeots whieh bed been touched
upon by the Senator from Ohio.
Air. Own( explained the notion of the California
Legislature in reference to those resolutions re
forred to and quoted by Mr. Pugh. They intended
is take the eimjeet away from Congress find leave
it to the judicial Ottawa!, of the country, who are
the only proper tilbunele to dfiettio such questions.
The position of the Demcoratic party in California
is that those are purely judicial questions. As to
the action in the case 91 Senator Douglas, he said
It was the duty of that Senator to be hero when the
==m
Senate was organized, and he also contended that
It was right that the majority of Demoeratio Sena
tors, who were the majority of this body, and who
were responsible for its organisation, should no
tenger niece a man at the, head of the Territorial
Committee holding opinionS in direot conflict with
that majority on the sobjeet of Territorial power.
With regard to what .Mr. Pugh had said about
the ninety-nine hundredths of the,Demoeraoy, and
every non-slaveholdlng State agreeing with Mr.
Douglas, Mr. Ginn said Mr. Pugh might speak for
j Ohio, but that was not the dootrine of galifornia.
. .
That question had been triad before the people,
and by an overwhelming majonty those who
agree with Douglas have been condemned. The
maintenance of that doctrine is dangerous to the
Democratlo party.
A long oolloquial debate ensued between Messrs.
twin and Pugh, in which Mr. Davis, of Mississippi,
also partleipated, recanting no points of special
inter - eat. -
Mr. Men hoped that, insomuch as the question
of order he raised this morning had been 'duel
dated, the chair would now decide that point.
- Mr. LANS, of Oregon, desired to say a few words
on the question which had boon up, If Mr. Hale
would withdraw.
Mr. HALM. I will withdraw anything the Sena
tor from Oregon desires. [Laughter.]
Mr. LANE remarked that it was net his punnet,
to prescribe rules or lay down a platform of pnn
eiples for the 'Democratio party. its had notbing
to do with the case of Senator Dangles, and he had
no doubt there were many good Democrats in the
Northern States who did not agree upon this quote
don of Territorial rights with the majority of the
party. He would nut say they were not good De
mop:trate beeause they disagreed with him, nor
would he say that not holding the views of Mr.
Douglas would have been a reaeon for him to op
pose that gentleman as chairman of the Commit
tee on Territories. Ile was, sorry to find that
his own views on the Territorial question dif
fered very materially from Mr. Yugh's. lie
hold that &Territory is the common property of the
whole people, in which every State in the Union
has equal rights, and that while in a Territorial
state the people could not, by unfriendly . legisla.
don or by a system of unequal taxation, infringe
tho rights of the people of any State of the Union
In the ease of Arizona, for instance, which wee
well adapted to elave-labor, he would , not submit
to it that the people of the South should go there,
and, by unfriendly legislation, exclude the
people of the North. The principle of the "quality
of the States must be maintained, and their equal
rights in the Territories was so clear in his mind,
that ho °mild not see how any man could doubt it.
Mr. Bnowx, of Mississippi protected against the
assumption on which Mr. I ugh's resolution was
based, that there are no laws in Now Mexico este
bliehing slavery. Slavery wont there under the
Constitution, to horses, dry vette, or any other
property went, and then the Legislature, under
solemn duty, made laws protecting it. Those laws
did not establish it there.
Mr. LANE remarked that ho would submit to no
wrong, nor would ho seek to do any ; but he only
desired to 'parry out the principle of scouring to
, every section of the country equal rights.
Mr. Bnowx commended Mr. Pugh's speech for
its broad nationality, and concurred most heartily
in many things he had mid. It seemed to him
that the views of the different Senators could be
harmonised and, in order to do en, he would give
I his own position. First. He held that strives were
recognised as property under tho Constitution.
Mr. Poem. Aooording to the law of the State.
Mr. Bnowx. Does It not go further? Dues not
' the Constitution itself rooogniso them as property
in the broadest possible sense? Is there any other
property that you can pursue into another State
and recapture it?
Mr. Peon, The Constitution says persons held to
service or labor In a State under the laws thereof.
The Federal Government makes nothing property,
but all the rights of property are under the laws of
the States.
Mr. BROWN. Slaves wore property before the
Constitution existed ; therefore, it did not belong
to the Federal Constitution to say what a State
should recognise as property. His next proposi
tion was that the owners of slaves have the same
right to take them to a Territory that the owners
p 1 any other kind of property have to take that,
and their property is entitled to the fame protee.
lion by the law-making power of Government with
other property. When the Government falls to
protest our property anywhere and everywhere, it
ought to be abolished. If that be treason, make
the most of it. Ho asked nothing for his eootion
that he would not word to the other, and closed
by giving : "Thanking the Republican benches
for the polite ;Rotten they have given me, I take
my seat." [Every seat on that mile of the cham

Mr. Gu,Nan, of North Caroline, caused to be
road a newspaper article oommenteng on an ex
tract from tho PoStOrz, Treed Journal, associating
his name offensively with gainer's book, and say
ing, among other things, that the South should look
about to see whether there were not traitors on her
own soil. fie said that so far as this article applied
to him, it was an infamous and malicious fabrioa
tion, and a falsehood from beginning te end. If he
hail received Helper's book, as charged, it must
have been through the mail, but he had no know
ledge that this book ever came into hie possession.
Certainly he never read a solitary word of it.
Ever since be had refused to act with the Demo.
orate, on Lecompton—which ho believed an late.
mous fraud and swindle—he had' been pursued
with the ferocity of the tiger and malignity of the
devil. lie repeated that the whole publiestion,
so far at it was intended to affect him, is a lie from
beginning to end,
Mr SINGLETON, of Misseissippi, replying to Mr.
Rickman, emphatically denied the latter 's charge
that the South had violated all compacts and com
promises. Where and when bad the South de
manded neything more than she was entitled to
under the Constitution? Wherever aggression!'
bad been made, they were by the stronger on the
breaker ;eaten, and the South was obliged to take
her present stand with a view to preserve fraternal
relations.
Mr. Itteerwarr, of Peunsylyania, said he would
reply Ed /1/11Mg a question.
Sir. teuearox remarked that that was a Yankee
way he didn't like ; _
Mr. McKim said that, also undcretood the his
tory of legislation is 1850'51, there was a demand
made from the South that this Missouri Compro.
mite lino should be repealed, inasmuch as it pre
vented slavery north of 33 deg .30 min., and was un
just to the South which went almost in a body for
its repeal, and with the aid of a few Northern repro
sentence's' accomplished it. In return they gave
the North what ho (Mr. Rickman) eousidered was
a dislinat pledgo—namely : that the question of
slavery from that day farward should cease to be
reogitatod in Congrees, and the settlement of the
whale question be loft to the people of the Territo
ries for their determination.
4u effort was then perseveringly made to force
slavery into the territory from which it had been
excluded by the act of 1820: 4od failing in this,
' they now denounce the legislation of 185 f, and in.
sist that the principles of the Eaneto-Nobreeka
bill should be repudiated. This, be said, was de.
straying that °examen understanding between the
North and the South, which existed sinoe 1820. Ho
asked whether the South did not atwitter It bene
ficial to her to have the Missouri Compromise line
repealed. If they did not so consider it of any
importance, why 'did they etreggle so long and anx
iously for its repeal?
Mr. Sthottrox, of Itelesiesippi, said that Mr.
Hickman bad not answered him. Every Territory

had the right to'oepeet and loalug nothing.
Smith did not metre war on line 311.30—it Was will
ing at all times to extend if to the Pacific Ocean,
and thus forever settle the vexed question, se
far from the South being recreant to the trust, it
was ready and had at all times upheld the laws
and the Constitution. Any man who put his sig
nature to the circular recommending the circula
tion of Helper's book was unfit to bo Speaker, and
while so signing tt, of he knew its oces touts, he was
guilty of moral treater', a'n4 ought tp ype dealt with
accordingly. If he did not know anything of its eon.
tentewheu he signed the circular, then' he was dis.
qualified from holding that position. If the Republi

of severing the ties which Lied us tegother, and the

quorms. It wouldhe considered by the Smith as
adding insult to Injury. Ma intmired weather it
was not the design of the Republican; to exclude
the South from the Territories?
Mr. CURTIS, of lowa, said that the Republicans
were oppoied to the extension of slavery, and by
every constitutional power and act would oppose
its extension ; but did not purpose stifling the
South la circumventing it by any system of policy.
It wile net Lie purpose, directly or indirectly, to
Injure the 'peopre pt " the Spat h holding slaves.
Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof."
r. StreaLwrox replied that this - was all in
tended to 1411 the suspicions of the South, with a
view to further aggreasionr, and hind them hand
and foot, and deliver them over to the biruientor.
Did not tho gentleman believe that Congress had
the power direotly to exclude us from the Terri
tories, and would he not vote for such a law?
Mr. Cairns. We would give you the same
rights we ask for. We would veto to exclude
slaves, not freemen, from the Territories.
Mr. , Srecoserev. Is that the opinion of your
party?
Mr. Corms. I believe it is.
Mr. BINOLSTON. In other winde, you will never
let us have another foot of slave territory while
we remain with ion. Is that the idea ?
Mr. Quaver. That's the idea,
After some further colloquy, Mr . B . :Any:At said,
for himself, he did not desire to to committed by.

linen side prior to an organisation. lie protested
molest the right of any gentleman to Interrogate
him, or bind him by any responses or failure to
respond. When the subject to properly before the
House, gentlemen will be gratified In having it
discussed.
Mr. SINGLETON said : You will not meet it like
men. (Yokes on the Republican side, We will.]
Mr. b:INOLETON added, the responses will be
evasive in their character. If you exclude driver,
from us, it will prove a disruption of every tie.
We will have expansion of slavery is the Union,
and outside of it if we must. If you want to
know my advice to htisaissippl, I say the sooner
we got out of the Union the better, for the tenger
we stay in it the worse for us. The South have
made up their minds to sustain slavery. We
don't intend to be prescribed by the present limits,
and it will not be In the power of the North to
coerce throe millions of freemen at the South with
arms in their hands, anti prevent them NM going
into the surrounding territories. Gentlemen must
remember that the gallant eon of the South, Jet.
ferson Davis, led our forces in Mexico, and thank
God he still lives, perhaps Mined a Southern army.
Mr. SINGLETON reviewed the doctrine Of equator
sovereignty, and said that Mr. Douglas holding
this doctrine he would never vote fur him, oven if
nominated by the Charleston ementlon.
Mr. LooAN,of Illinois, said ho, claiming to be a
friend of Mr . Douglas, and coming, from a Demo.
erotic State, (Illinole,) would support soy men no
' 'ideated by the. Charleston Convention, for the
purpose of putting down the Republican party.
lApplattse.]
Mr. SINGLETON, resenting, said that the South
could expend to glexico, that country being with
out e government, and they could administer the
estate for themselves. Whenever a man like Mr.
Seward or Mr. Lisle was elected to preside over
the destinies of the South, then may bo expected
an undivided front in that aeotion, and all parties
united in resistance to aggression. The only way to
preserve the Union is to reopen the Territories to
tho Southon equal termseit it the North. If the pee.
plo make a clove State, permit them to IMMO idle
the Union as a slave State—execute the fugitive.
slave law, and give the South assurance that when
their slaves run away there will be no difficulty to
recover them. Ile hold that every State had the
right to judge of the mode and wanner of retirees.

THE PRESS.-PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1859.
• Mr. Bows. of Virginia, add that the time had
come when he was entitled to a hearing. During
the space of two weeks his Dom:matte friends bad
voted for him with a Oonstaboy and magnanimity
whioh demanded his heartfelt and grateful no
knowledgments. Ills belief was that his friends,
by the use of hie name, might thus present a point
round whieh the pounder and oonservative ele
ments might rally. ' That hope had grown more
and more dim, and was now entirely gone. The_
country was now Intensely exalted, more so than,
ever before. The expectation of the people comes
up, and demands to know whether those entertain
ing sounder and more conservative views cannot
unite for the defeat of the party which they regard
ae sectional and aggressive. Ile had been willing,
at all times, to unite for the accomplishment of that
object. Believing that the further use of his name
may be, to some extent, a stumbling block and a
bar, he no longer wished to be eensidered a oandl•
date. Ho could not fall to appreciate the honor of
being the presiding officer of this Mouse but there
was one feeling scarcely less dear. It was the
proud coniciounness that during two weeks of ao
tivo, excited, and animated discussion, be felt that
he had borne himself in a manner worthy of a re
presentative of a free, generous, and oblvairous
people. Had he gone into that chair he would
have been uncommitted, and free to deal equal and
exsetjustioe to every member of this body. While'
ho remained on the floor, as ho was now certain he'
would, he would have a heart unsubduod, hands
unshackled, and a mind free to think and look
I upon every section of the country for the honor and
glory of the whole. Ito finally withdrew hie name.
