The Democratic March Towards Sla
very.
What wonderful discoveries the syco
phants of slavery occasionally make, and
3 SI too in the name of democracy! We
stated the position of the Republicans to
he that it is wrong to spread slavery, and
therefore, in the eyes of the Patent Dem
ocrat, we are an abolitionist! It is really
almost nonsensical to argue with any one
who will hold up slavery, either white,
copper colored, or black, as the natural
state of man, but as we have at hand high
democratic authority, we will here give it
for the information of the genius in poli
ties who has the Democrat in charge. It
will be borne in mind that we had said
nothing, and never have, nor has the Re
publican party, that would hear the slight
est intention of disturbing the blessed in
stitution in States where it legally exists.
but simply exercised our constitutional
right of advocating freedom in free territo
ries. (ion. Cass, Mr. Buchanan's Secreta
ry of State, hut six years .ago, held the
opinions we advanced, and supported them
by good authorities ; it we are an abolition
ist now, he, with nine tenths of the demo
cratic party north, must have been also,
and although he and others may have
changed, we have uot, for we thm held the
i-ime opinion ice do now. His speech
will commend itself to all democrats who
have lailen into the snare of slavery, and
- line who have been perhaps unwittingly
misled from 3-ear to year, can probably re
size how much they have changed in prin
iple since 185 4 :
speech of Gen Cass at Detroit, Novem
ber 4. 1854
'And first 1 will refer to that kind of
111 'five power by which it is claimed that
immediately on the acquisition by the Uni
ted States of any foreign territory, slavery
rxtends over it by the operation of the
Constitution, however it may be excluded
!y the local law ; by which, for instance, if
Canada were annexed to the Union to-mor
-1 iw every slaveholder could take liis slaves
there, and hold them till prevented by an
at! of the people embodied in a State Con
stitution. This very position I heard main
tained with relation to Canada by a south
ern senator —I think by Mr. Vulee—in an
swer to an inquiry made by Mr. Dickinson.
The opposition to this pretension the wri
ter does me the honor to call an article in
the Cass creed. This is too high an hon
■•r, and one to which I have no claim. I
ieii him it is an article in the Constitution
al creed, firmly maintained, as I believe, by
every man in the non-slaveholding States,
and, as I know, by many an able and patri
otic statesman in the South. It was held
r Mr. Clay and Mr. Webster; and I can
Ko tell him he is behind the age. This
pretension originated I know not when or j
where, but certainly very recently. It j
=prang up in a night, and perished in a
day. Although it was probed to the bottom j
ly its opponents at the last session of the
Senate, I do not recollect a single member
who entered upon its defense; and one ve- i
ry able southern man, at least, [Mr. Harris, j
"! Mississippi,] disavowed it, and I thought j
in rather contemptuous terras. ' Between
you and me, Mr. Chairman,' said that gen- i
ticman, 'the Constitution does not carrry a
slave anywhere, except it be a runaway, I
and it does take him back from a Free State i
to h:s ni.stcr in a Slave State.' Another '
member from a slaveholding State, Mr.
i ranklin, of Maryland, expressed similar
views. The doctrine never had any real
''nidation, either in the Constitution or in
the nature of the confederation. It rested j
n the assumption, that the public domain
veing acquired by the whole Union, the
*hole 1 nion had equal rights in its enjoy- !
Ments. This postulate is undeniable. But !
wuat then ? It was further contended that
the Nouth could not enjoy their equal right
- settlement upon the public lands, unless
* comparatively small portion of its popu
•nion, say 350,000 out of more than 6,-
y'AOtjQ of white persons, could take their
- :V es with them; or, in other words, that
- ery man, of every State in the Union, j
'Sd a right to take all his property to the
I dc domain, and there hold it—whiskey,
Mb, or anything else—although prohib
b)' the local law. A true answer to
!u pretension is, that if any man, North
or soutb, holds property, not recognized as
5 > °J prohibited by the local law, his
remedy is to be found, not in the violation
- but in the conversion of such prop
ln'° money, the universal representa
or va tae, and take that to his new
, ome, and there commence his work of en
in a young and growing commu-
^ ann ot even glanco at the numerous
which fortify and render im-
- I shall content
'• ' ' with adding, that the maintenance
a doctrine leads inevitably to con
- Cviices which strike at that great element
Ur lnst 'tutions, the rights of the States
The assumption which I have referred to
is, that slavery is essential to the equal
enjoyment of the public domain. Now
the public domain exists as well in the
States as in the Territories, and every act
ol Congress in relation to its sale and set
tlement is equally in force and wherever an
acre of the public land is to be found,
inere is not one statute on this subject
which does not operate as fully in Ohio as
in (_ regon. If, therefore, the Constitution
of the I nited States, gives to the slave
holder the right to take his peculiar pro
perty to the public domain, how happens
it that the public domain is closed to him
the moment a State Constitution is formed,
and slavery excluded by it? Does the
Constitution of a State overrule and over
ride that of the United States? Such is
not the reading of the general Constitution
which declares its own supremacy upon all
matters committed to it over the constitu
tions of the States. Either, therefore, this
claim of the expansive power of slavery
over the public domain is unfounded, or
slaves may be taken to Ohio, and to any
other of the new States where any portion
of the public lands is yet unsold. [ leave
the choice of the dilemma to the commen
tator of the Enquirer.
In the first place, I have maintained the
same views time and again, and the writer,
if he did not know it, ought to have known
it before ho thus assailed me. l>ut this
touching only his moral duty is of little
importance when compared with the as
sertion tout 'it has been heretofore main
tained only by the most crazy of the aboli
tion fanatics. Has the writer lived in
such an atmosphere of political darkness
that he does not know that this doctrine
has been maintained by some of the ablest
and most accomplished jurists in the coun
try North and .South ?—that- it was main
tained by the Supreme Court of the I nited
States in the well known ease of Priug '
against the ('ommonwealth of Pennsylvania,
when, among other points, it was solemnly
ruled that 'the state of slavery is deemed
to be a mere municipal regulation, founded
upon, and limited by, the range of the ter
ritorial laws.'
The same doctrine has been mantained
by judicial decisions in Pennsylvania, in
Kentucky, in Ohio, in Louisiana, in Miss
issippi, in Missouri, and I have seen it sta
ted, in other States. The Louisiana court
pronounced that 'the relation of owner and
slave is, in the .States of the Union in which 1
it has a legal existence, the creature of
municipal law. The Mississippi court !
thus confirmed the same doctrine : "The j
right of the master exists not by the force
ol 1 lie law of nature or nations, but by vir- i
tue only of a positive law; slavery is con- :
detuned by reason and the law of nature i
—it exists, and can only exist, through tuu- j
ineipal regulations.' 'Slavery,' says the 1
Kentucky court, 'exists only by positive j
law ola municipal character, without foun
dation in the law of nature, or the unwrit- I
ten and common law.' 'The state ofslavery,
thus decides the Pennsylvania court, 'is i
deemed to be a mere municipal regulation,
founded upon, and limited by, the range of j
the territorial law.
I Snd these extracts in the papers of the j
day with references to Martin's Louisiana ;
Reports, to Walker's Mississippi Reports,
and to l'eter's Pennsylvania Digest, and I
presume they are correct.
Judge McLean thus announces his ad-i
hesion to the doctrine : 'Without the sane- ;
tion of law slavery can no more exist in a ;
Territory than a man can breathe without
air Slaves are not property where they
are not made such by municipal law. Mr.
Clay maintained it, saying in the Senate : •
'You cannot put your finger on the part
of the Constitution which conveys the right
or power to carry slaves from one of the
States of the Union to any Territory of the
I nited States and Mr. Webster, it is well I
known, concurred in this view. Mr. Har
ris, of Mississippi, will hardly be visited by
the denunciations of tlie Enquirer, and yet
I have referred to that of Mr. Franklin.—
I will not pile Pelion upon Ossa by multi
plying these references. I am weary of
this perversity of intellect—closely allied
to mental hallucination or to moral obliqui
ty—which boldly proclaims the expansive ]
power of slavery, with law and without law,
and rebukes me as an abolitionist because ;
I bold on to the true creed; founded in rea
son, hallowed by time, and fortified by the j
judicial decisions of our highest tribunals. ;

Foster and the Irish Famine,
Our readers will remember with what
painful and thrilling emotion the intelli
j gence was received throughout the coun
try. of the terrible famine which spread
tribulation over Ireland in 1847, blasting
| the subsistence of the people, and scatter
ing death and desolation like a plague
through the land. Among the most cher
ished of our recollections is the spontane
! ous an ' J generous response with which that
call upon humanity was answered by the
j American people. Cities, communities
and individuals vied with each other in be
ing fbiemost in the offices of Christian
charity, and the prayers of the nation as
cended with the offerings of a beautiful
benevolence. Among other movements of
relief, Mr. Crittenden introduced a bill in
the Senate of the United States, on the
i 20th of February, 1847. (See Congres
• sional Globe, vol. 17, page 512.j
; A bill to provide some relief for the suf
fering people of Ireland and Scotland •
" Be it enacted, Ac., That the President of

to cause to be purchased such provisions as :
I be may deem suitable and proper, and to j
cause the same to be transported uhd tender- i
ed in the name ot the government of the Uni
ted States to that of Great Britain, for the
; relief of the people of Ireland and Scotland,

toe President of the United States be and he
j is hereby authorized, at his discretion, to em- j

ions to he purchased as aforesaid.
J lie hill was eloquently advocated by Mr. !
; Crittenden and others. Mr. Bagby, (a demo I
crat from Alabama,) objected to the second
reading, and it went over to the next day,
when its consideration was resumed, on mo- |
tion of Mr. Crittenden. After a slight verb
al alteration, at the suggestion of Mr. Web
ster, to the effect that the offering was made
by the people instead of " the govern
ment, the bill passed by the following vote:
Ayes Messrs. Allen, Atchison, Berrien,
Br;ese, Calhoun, Cameron, Cass, John M.
Clayton, Corwin, Crittenden, Davis, Dayton, !
Evans, Greene, Hannegan, Houston. Hunt 1
ingdon, Jarnegan, Johnson of Md., J >hns< n
of La., Mangum, Miller, More head, Simmons, !
Soule, Sturgeon, Webster—27. Whigs, 17 • !
Democrats 10.
_ Nays—Messrs. Archer, Badger, Bagby, '
Butler, Chalmers, Dickinson, Dix, Fairfield, i
Mason, Xiles, Turney, Weseott, Yulee—lib !
Whig, 1; Democrats, 12.
All the leading minds of the Senate went
for the hill, thus giving it the weight of their
authority as a proper and constitutional meas
ure. It was sent to the House on the same
day—Saturday, the 2i th of February.
Ou Monday, the first of March, the bill was ;
read a first and second time (Sea House Jour- j
nal page 452). Mr. George W. Jones (demo
crat) moved that it be laid on the table, which
was lost on a formal division, yeas 74, navs
84. Mr. Henrj- D. Foster appears to have dodg
ed this vote, for immediately afterwards he is
found recorded on a question of reference.
The House refused to send the hill to the
Committee of the Whole on the state of the
Luion, fur which Mr. Foster voted, and refer- I
red it to the Committee of Ways and Means.
Ou Tuesday, the 2d of March, the friends of
the bill made an ineffectual attempt to get it |
up, hut failed owing to the rigid rules. The
next day Mr. \\ inthrop moved that the rules
he suspended, for the purpose of enabling
him to offer a resolution instructing the Com-
mittee of M ays and Means to report forth
with to the House the Liil from the Senate for
the relief of Ireland and Scotland. That
Committee had a majority of democrats, and
they kept the biil back, with a view of smoth
ering it there and preventing a vote. Mr.
Winthrop's motion and instructions were
therefore a direct test upon the merits of the
proposition and here is the vote;
Ayes 57—Nays 102. MR. FOSTER
VOTING NAY.
The Whigs, generally, voted for the meas
ure, and the democrats against it, but the lat
ter having a large majority in the llouso, Mr.
Winthrop's effort failed, and the bill was lost.
Mr. Henry D. Foster voted against it, and it
is a little remarkable that Mr. Hamlin was
one of the few democrats recorded on the
affirmative. Mr. Foster assigned no reason
at the time for this extraordinary course and
was coutent with emphasising his hostiltv by
several direct votes. No public ground could
be urged in opposition, for Webster, Calhoun,
Cass, Mangum, Crittenden, Clayton, and the
great lights of the Senate had given it their
cordial approval. The democratic party of
the House set their faces against this liberal
act, and Mr. Foster preferred to follow the
lead of Rhett, Cobb, aud Jacob Thompson.—
the two last members of Buchanan's cabinet
—than to contribute his aid towards a bene
ficent measure, by which millions of suffering
people were to be relieved from the horrors
of starvation.
Railroad Accident at Huntingdon.—A
fatal railroad accident occurred at Hunting
don, on Thursday evening last, by which
two men. named Peter McCarthy and
James McMahou were killed, and a third
(Francis Kane) was seriously injured. A
large crowd was gathered at the depot, and
the persons killed were standing on the
track as the train was coming into the sta
tion, beyond which it ran some distance.
Much blame is attached to those having
the train in charge, and the accident, we
learn will be made the subject of legal in
vestigation

Pittsburg, on Friday last, in consequence
of a cow getting under the locomotive, by
which accident some thirty-three passengers
were injured—but none seriously.

WALL PAPER.
Nothing probably in the catalogue of items
i with which we beautify our homes contributes
more towards giving them an inviting, cheer
ful appearance than that with which we dec
orate our walls. And so important lias this
item become that the manufacture and sale of
wall paper has grown to be a business of im
mense magnitude, and commands the capital,
enterprise, and good taste of our best business
men and most skillful artists. In connection
; with this business the name of IIOWELL has
become synoymous. By their liberality to j
artists and good taste in the selection of "im- j
ported goods, Messrs. Howell gave the busi
ness a great impetus, and to their enterprise
chiefly may be attributed the progress made j
in this direction. Messrs. IIOWELL &
BOURKE, who have recently removed to the
! X. E. corner of Fourth and Market streets,
> Philadelphia, are both young men; they com- :
j mand large means, keep a very extensive
Stock of goods, and represent the enterprise,
public spirit and good taste with which the
business was originally imbued by the eider
Ilowells, and we venture the as-ertion that
I nowhere else can paper hangings be purchas
ed to better advantage; no other firm certain
ly commands more ample resources, or dis .
plays greater determination to give entire j
I satisfaction to purchasers. Give them a trial,

visit "THE PREMIUM CANE SEAT CHAIR MAX J
CFACTORY AND WAREROOMS," at Nos. 223 and 1
225 North Sixth street, opposite Franklin J
Square, Philadelphia.
Mr. I. 11. Wisler. the energetic and intelli j
gent proprietor of the establishment, gives 1
his undivided attention to the manufacture of j
this single article—Cane Seat Chairs, and can ;
without doubt furnish the best article for less i
money than they can be purchased elsewhere, j
His stock embraces the greatest variety of I
fashionable and elegant styles, suitable for
Parlors, Drawingrooms, DiningroomsorCham- i
bers, also, Ladies' Sewing Rockers, Children's '
Chairs, See., that can be found in Philadelphia.
His ambition is to furnish the best article for j
the least money, and with shrewd business j
calculation he has located himself where rent
is low, yet in a central and prominent place, j
Everybody can remember Franklin Square, j
and it is the best guide to his extensive ware
rooms. To any one and every one wishing
to purchase Chairs we say emphatically that
no one can supply a better article, or afford i
to sell at a lower price than Mr. I. 11. WISLER.

interesting phase. Sardinian troops had
advanced into the territory ot the Pontiff,
and defeated Latnorieiere," with <reat loss.
The Sardinians were taking possession of
the country. It was rumored that the Pope
had either fled from Rome or was on the
eve of flight. It was the impression in
well-informed circles thet Gen. Lamoriciere,
at the head of nine thousand men, was then
about to proceed to Gaeta, and unite with
the forces of the abdicated Bomba. Tn
the meantime, Garibaldi, as master of Na
ples and Dictator ot the Two Sicilies, does
not remain idle, lie was about to orgauizo
an army and navy on ab extensive scale. The
army will comprise one hundred and fiftv
thousand men. it is said, while his navy
will consist oi'five hundred vessels. Ks-
sutli was daily expected in Naples for the
purpose of conference. Garidaldi, strong
in his military genius, and with such an
army to back him, may be well regarded
as one of the most formidable powers in
Lurope. He evidently has his eye on Yeu
etia, and we may daily expect to hear of
an invasion of that country, and a conflict
with Austria.

Neuralgic Affections, it has iu numerous instances proved
highly beneficial, and iu others effected a decided cure.
This is a purely vegetable compound, prepared on strictly
scientific principles, after the manner of the celebrated
Holland Professor, Bucrhave. Its reputation at home pro
duced its introduction here, the demand commencing with
those of the Fatherland scattered over the face of this
mighty country, many of whom brought with thorn and
handed down the tradition of its value. It is now ojfercd
to the American public, Icnmeittg that its truly wonilerful
medicinal virtues must he acknowledged.
It is particularly recommended to those persons whose
constitutions may have been impaired by the continuous use
of ardent spirits, or other fonns of dissipation. Generally
instantaneous in effect, it finds its way directly to the seat
of life, thrilling and quickening every nerve, raising up the
drooping spirit, and, iu fact, itifnsing new health and vigor
in the system.
NOTlCE.—Whoever expects to find this a beverage will
be disappointed: but to the sick, weak and low spirited, it

and Liquors, imported l>y Udoipho Wolfe, of New I
York, whose name is familiar in every part of this ;
country for the purity of his celebrated Schiedam j
Schnapps. Mr. \\ olfe, in hi.s letter to me. .speakintr of |
the purity of his Wines and Liquors, says: -I will stake
my reputation as a man. my standing as a merchant '
of thirty years' residence in the City of New York. >
that all the Brandies and Wines that I bottle are pure •
as imported, and of the best quality, and can !
be relied upon by every purchaser." Every j
bottle has the proprietors name on the wax, unH j
a fac simile of his signiture on the certificate. The

for themselves. For sale at Retail by all Apothecar- i
ics and Grocers in Philadelphia.

Read the following from the New York Courier: i
ENORMOUS BUSINESS FOR CSF. NEW YORK MERCHANT— :
We are happy to inform our fellow-citizens that there
is one place in our city where the physician, apothe- j
cary, and country merchant, can go and purchase pure i
Wines and Liquors, as pure as imported, and of the i
best quality. We do not intend to give an elaborate 1
description of this merchant's extensive business, al- I
though it will repay any stranger or citizen to visit j
Udoipho Wolfe's extensive warehouse, Nos, 18,20 and \
22, Beaver street, and Nos. 17,19 and 21, Marketfield
street. His stock of Schnapps on hand ready for j
shipment could not have been less than thirty "thou- j
sand cases ; the Brandy some ten thousand cases—
Vintages of 1836 to 1850; and ten thousand eases of 1
Madeira, Sherry and Port Wine, Scotch and Irish !
whiskey. Jamaica and St. Croix Rum. some verv old
and equal to any in this country. He also had three
iarge cellars, tilled with Brandy. Wine. Ac,, in caks t
under the Custom House key, ready for bottling.— j
Mr. Wolfe's sales of Schnapps last year amounted to ;
one hundred and eighty thousand dozen, and we hope •
in less than two year-' he niav be equally successful
with his Brandies and Wines. "
His business merits the patronage of every iover of
his species. Private families who wish pure Wines
and Liquors for medical u.e should send their orders
direct to Mr. Wolfe, until every Apothecary jn the
land make up their minds to discard the poisonous {
stuff from their shelves, and replace it with Wolfe's j
pure Wine and Liquors. , !
We understand Mr. Wolfe, for the accommodation j
of small dealers in the country, puts up assorted cas
es of Wines and liquors. Such a man, and such a j
merchant, should he sustained against his tens of
thousands of opponents in the I. nited States, who j
sell nothing but imitations, ruinous alike to human |
health and happiness. seplD-ly
For the Gazette.
I won.d wish to enqu.re through the col
umns of the Gazette whether Mr. George
Hates, the candidate tor representative in our
county, sustains the present administration
tu his vote on the tariff resolutions would
seem to indicate. His excuse for that vote
now is that the amendments to those resolu
tions condemned Buchanan's administration.
Now there is one of two things true, he was
; cither opposed to the resolutions or he was in
favor °f Buchanan's policy, and if he justi*
j hes J. B's course, is it not a scintillation of
light on his mum position in regard to the
presidential question, inasmuch as we find
aet v.-nolo ; roe of the administration going
toe death lor_B reckon ridge and Lane.
But n Mr Bates was a tariff man, why
uid lie r. t vote for the original resolutions
i and put in his protest against the amend*
j meats? These are questions, Mr. Editor
