DOUGLAS.
Mr. Stephen A. Douglas has been
spending some days in our town—per
haps is still here—where he has made
one speech to Mr. John Cochrane in
au apartment of his tavern, and another
in the street to the Empire Club and
such adjuncts a -9 could be drummed
up by an hour's industrous cannonad
ing in the park and drumming through
Broadway. We wish more of our
citizens could have been induced to
gauge the intellectual caliber of the
Little Giant" who has stirred up all
this row about Nebraska.. The first
chock of amazement must have been
:•evere, but the subsequent reflections
wiiuld have been salutary. Do con
titlera few germs from Isis Tuesday
evening speech
The soup'e principle involved in that
Nehr.Aa] question was, that the people of
the Territories of the United States shall be
allowed to decide for themselves what kind of
laws they would have. * ' It is no
excuse to say that the people. if left to them
selves, will pass bad laws; if they do, the
consequences of those bad laws must fall up
on their own heads."
That is to say : If A. is allowed to
beat, sell or starve B.—the consequen
ces of such had laws fall, not on the
Offenseless B. who is beaten, sold and
:tamed,. but on powerful A. who is
enabled to do him the wrong—and so
there is no danger that the wrong will
aid be speedily redressed !
Now if the people or the Territories are
xpall!e of legislating upon every question
imolving the well-being of the white man,
ere they not also capable of legislating for the
u3gro T [Laughter, and cries of 'Yes, yes!]
I do not think it requires any higher intellec
toll power to make laws for the negro than
tor 1% IMP men." [Great cheering.]
1, n't this something to be - cheered
,Aer ? Just think of Bute or Norl'l
eetting up in the House of Lords
1;75 and saying, " My Lords, if Par
" liament is capable of legislating for
-Englishm , m, I think it qualified to
'• legislate for Americans us well."—
(low pt t-bellied country squires would
hate chuckled over and cheered the ,
-nauestie ! Sam. John: on's
tm‘itau w,uld lave spread itself!—
Patliament makes• good enough laws
tLr us—why not good enough then,
"fire Yankees ?" " Why," replie
timple Dt. Franklin, " because Par
" &intent represents you, is responsible
to you, and does not represent, nor
is responsible to the Americans."
What Republican can fitil to see the
distinction ? But Dougiss gloats olt
hi. glimmer of an idea, and returns to
it ns something stunning. Let us fol
low Lim.
The Abolitionist tell von that the proper
VI ay is to giro the people o 1 the Territories
to wok, all the lairs for the :dribs, bet 1107IC fer
Hoc As. Nil w, I t.t.y that we Aoaltl maw
[sin rod support our principles consistently,
cud that Oita is good enoug h for ittitts is good
off ret nryrues. [Cheert'.J"
The !villa little villaili knows this
steeped iu thisehood—knows tint
-he Abolitionist ever proposed to de
prive the People of legislative power
over Blacks or Whites. What they
do propose is, that the laws shall be
just and equal to all men as men, and
take no account of their color as a
reason for inflicting degradation, in
jury and wrong upon any class or
faction. It is he, Stephen A. Doug
las, who is trying to fix matters so that
what is good enough for a part shall
not be legally accounted good enough
fir the residue—so that the power to
make
.all laws shall be confined to'
men of one color, while those of an
other shall be abused and oppressed
under those laws without redress.
But we ought not to have wasted so
many words on
_this miserable crea
ture with his impudent, brazen soph
istry. Rynders himself might have
uttered as wicked but not so weak a
rigmarole; and we are rather surprised
that he did not, as if in Tammany,
after getting a touch of its quality,
order the Giant to shut up, and to
procred to make the speech of the
evening himself.—N. Y. Tribune.
MERE is great reason to believe
that a union of all the elements op
posed to the fugitive slave law and the
repeal of the Alissouri Compromise,
will be effected in this State, and
throughout the northern States, The
Pittsburgh Gazette, Journal, and other
leading papers, are out warmly in
favor of the project. Friends of hu
manity, let us throw little prejtidices
to the winds. We are all engaged in
the same great objects. We all de
sire to effect the same great ends.

spects, true and trustworthy.—National Era.
INDEPENDENT PAPER AT HAERMIDDIG.
Tu the Editor of the National Era :
A Free Democratic paper at Harrisburg has
long been felt as a great want, and some such
paper in a central location is deemed indis
pensable, if the Independent' Democrats of
Pennsylvania intend to organize a party and
become a power in the State. Various friends
are moving to secure support for such a paper,
and I do not doubt but their efforts will prove
successfid. The State CentralCommitte, in a
recent circular, warmly commend 'this paper
to the favor of the friends of the cause; and
the Free Eemocrats of Butler county, at their
co ti uty cov cation on the sth inst., unanimously
adopted the following resolutions:
" ‘Vhereas it is in contemplation to estab
lish a Free Democratic State paper at Harris
burg. and whereas, in the opinion of this meet ,
Mg, a State organ is highly necessary: There
fore,
"Resulerd, That we sympathise with the
movement, and pledge ourselves to its sup
port. individually, and to use our efforts to ob
tain subscribers.
"On motion, •
"Resolred, That each member of this con
vention will endeavor to obtain the names of
all Free Democrats in the townships of the,
cotinty, and forward the same to Rev. Jas. N.
Smith, of Petersville, who is for this county
the member of the State Central Committee."
o.lier counties might probably be induced
to use similar efforts to establish such a paper.
Numerous individual friends throughout the
sta'e express a willingness to help the cause
along by doing all they can to sustain an inde
pendent paper at Harrisburg, but some coun
ties have not been heard from at all. Those
who will aid in sustaining such a paper are
requested to address me at this city, box 821.
• A. M. GANGEWER.
Washington City, D. g o llfay M. 1854.
A writer in the Boston Courier ex
presses the hope that when another case of
the seizure •of a fugitive slave may occur in
Boston, it " may be tried at the Navy-Yard or
at one of the Forts, under the flag of the United
States; for to carry on such an excitingtrial,"
he adds, " in the centre of a populous city, for
six or eight days , causes too great a strain on
the machinery ofGorernment.' He goes on to
say that at the Navy-Yards, and in the Forts,
the federal power has the means of checking
disorder and of keeping out the idle and the
evil disposed. This is another step towards
bring:rig this law into conformity with public
sentiment and the spirit of the age. Probably
we shall have all these cases arising under it
tried, lay-and-by, bSr Court Martial. In fact,
military law,—the law of the bayonet,—seems
in a fair way ofbeins substituted for common
law on all matters in which the question of
Slavery is involved. The Federal Govern
ment would do well, before puttin , ' b these de
signs in execution, to increase the Army and
Navy and augment - lie resources of our forts.
We doubt whe7f.,,r oar State authorities are
ready to surrender A their fUnctions into the
hands of the Federal power. They have
profited somewhat by the theories of South
ern statesmen in regard to State Rights: Mr.
Curious's writings may, after all, at no die
cant day, become a text Gook in Massachusetts
and Vermont. Stranger things than this have
happened.—N. Y. Times •
"LABOR or exercise ferments the
humors, casts them into their proper
channels, throws off. redundancies, and
helps nature in those secret distribu
tions, without which the body cannot
subsist in its vigor, nor the soul act
with cheerfulness."
The Boston papers say that nine-tenths of
the soldiers on duty when Burns was carried
dr, sympathised wtth the slave. A subscrip
tion to purchase his freedom has been started
among them.

Shanghae, under date of March 17, stated that
Commodore Perry was hourly expected there
on his return from Jeddo, and it is probable,
therefore, that this statement of the English

tices the fact that of the two hundred
and seventy convicts received into the
institution during the last year, no
less than one hundred and eighty-three

••admonition which ought never to be

The - Seneca Observer says of the
Fugitive Slave Law:
'Nothing tests better the law-abid
ing feeling of a community than the
execution' of a law of this kind. Tho
execution of a law which is a popular
one with the masses is no merit.. It is
simply doing that which every One
desires should be-done. But the sub
mission of a community to ttie requi
sitions of a law which they disapprove,
is a positive merit." •
If this is good logic, then the moth
ers who gave up their children for
human sacrifices in old times were
saints of the first water, and those
Jews who helped to crucify Christ,
believing him innocent, were men of
extraordinary merit. This we can
understand. But what shocking rep
obates our grandfathers were in resist
ing the Stamp 'Act and pouring the
tea into Lootna .13 a If Dr '— Tribune.

Prospectue of the Free Citizen,
A - PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE
The undersigned proposes to publish at the
seat of governmennt of Pennsylvania an Inde
pendent Democratic weekly newspaper 1111-
tier the above title; and, in announcing this
purpOse, we deem it proper to refer briefly
to a few of the general principles which shall
govern our course.
The Scripture teaches that "God created
roan in his own image," and that all men con
sequently are brethren. The Declaration of
Independence recognizes this truth when it
declares that "all men are created equal, and
that they are endowed by their Creator with
certain inalienable rights, among which are
life, liberty and the pursuit of happine-ss."
We believe in the Constitution of the
United States; which declares its purpose to
be "to form a more perfect union, establish
justice, insure domestic tranquility, promote
the general welfare, and secure the blessings
of liberty," and hold that all its provisions
should be construed in accordance with this
general purpose.
This was the position and pinpose.of the
sages oftheßevolntion, and we, their descend
ants, should labor to secure the blessings of
Individual liberty and national liberty.
. We believe in Democracy—a government
by the People and for the People—in the De
mocracy of free thought, free speech, free
conscience, free labor, and free men—in the
Democracy which loathes Oppression, and
which does not bend it back to sustain the
interests of a Class, however powerful or im
posing its numbers or position. A Democracy
which does this, which despises the People,
underrates their intelligence, disregards their
opinions, and abuses their confidence ; we
look upon as a pretense and a sham. If man
is to be looked upon merely as a stall fed
animal, to be satisfied when filled with crea
ture comforts, then will free citizens and free
laborers be considered as a nuisance and an
incumbmnce; but not when they are regarded
as the life-blood of the Republic. We have
been told that such a paper as we propose to
print cannotjive in the atmosphere of Harris
burg, that the politicians of Pennsylvania
have so debauched her public sentiment as to
crush out all regard for Justice, Humanity
and the Rights of Man as proclaimed in the
Declaration of Independence ; but we do not
believe it. Every friend of freedom and de
mocracy has'a personal interest in tho reputa
tion of the Commonwealth, and we trust
revery friend of the cause will do his part to
sustain THE FREE Cirrizist, and refute this
slander on the Keystone state. -
Tzums.—THE FREE CITIZEN will be
printed on a large and handsome sheet, at
Two Dollars, invariably in advance. Three
copies will be sent for $5, 5 copies for $B,;
and 10 copies for $lO. No paper will be sent
unless the money accompanies the order.
