years to come, has gained a foothold. It blistered
worse here, than in any other Suite. The leading
prints, have either stigmatized it by opprobrioes epi
thets, or preserved entire taciturnity. With but
three or four exceptions, in our immediate vicinity,
the Democratic ,portion of them, have not dared to
advocate the principle. The reason, we will not
n expatiate upon. Yet they are now equally. rea
dy with their brethren, to insisinpon the non-ex.
tension of Slavery. The efforts of those who are
most eminently the adjuncts of Southern schemers,
might for a time mistily or obscure the real merits
of the question, but when they disclose their iu
tendons, by attempting to make as a pally to dm
rimapuion of Slavery, the imposture is revealed,
and will meet with an indignant rejection,
The Legislature of our sister State--the Empires—
raced& a noble example for nor own Legislature,
which we trust it will not be la-Award in int . -.
tating. By a nearly unanimous vote she onee took
her position on. the side of Freedom. Who would
dare insult the , intelligence of her people by weert
lag that they had , deserted this principle! They
hare not; and we call upon the Legislature to m
assed' the position shoe then assumed. Shall this
great State be silent while her sisters a e speaking

or interest in common with them, or have we in
tearfully retmgraded, while they advanf ! We
will net libel the character of our State by supper
fag it possible. It is the duty of our Legit4ature to
speak plainly and speedily. It would have a great
effect in the settlement of the question, and is de
manded by the interests and feelings of -their con
stituents. •
Particularly would we urge upon the Democratic
members of the Legislature, their manhunt's and
immediate action. It is due to the character and
future prosperity of the party. Three years ago, it
stood fairly upon the platform of Freedom, and
experienced no difficulty in electing its candidates
by triumphant- majorities. Much has been done
since to place in a false positive, and throw upon
it the odina of encouraging Southern views and
consenting to Southern rapacity. Distinguished
Statesmen—hitherto.laroriters--longed for the White
House, and led off in the game of " debauching'
public sentiment, and giving it a false aspect. Ire
nal and corrupt presses, fattening at the treasury, at
the nod of their masters, strived to see which should
prove the most zealous in the unholy work. The
pressure of all the influence and patronage the Ge
neral government could command, and the efforts
of the prominent men of the Commonwealth, back.
ed by a greedy tronle of recipients and impee tants,
has been thrown upon this question to crush it and
its champions in this State, but through all ; it has
risen, victorious. How appropriate the limes of

hoves- Democrats when they have an opportunity,
to do all to their power to rescue %epee) , from the

The Pacheco slave ease was then taken up.—
Mr•. Toomb • of al. being entitled to the floor, earn
early explained the merit of the cue. He stated
that much misapprehension bad prevailed with te
pid to its character. He said that seither patty in
point of argument were entirely richt, that a Auer
tion wholly foreign to the case had. been brought
info the discussion, and so moat dwelt upon as to
prevent a clear understanding of its just claiins.
He then proceeded to produce precedents and au
thorities from previous legislation of Congress &a.
to show that the claim of the heirs of Pacheco was
just.
Mr. Duel (probably N. X. Hall or Judge „Duet)
of N. Y. obtained the floor and briefly replied to a
single point adduced by Mr. Toombs, and then
called for the previous question which was sus
tained.
The question of reconsidering the bill was then
put to the Herne and the Yeas and Nays dethan
ded and decided in the afrumatite, by Yeas 106,
Nays 92.
The bill on motir, was now put upon its final
passage. The main question as .amended was
then voted on and decided iu the affirmative by
Yeas 106. Nays 91.
So 'the Pacheco bill has Twain passed. The dis

the following extract of a letter from his brother at
Sail Fran zisco: Its statements have an air of exag

of provisions, however, will probably be tempos

A state of distress and suffering prevails here,
such as the world probably never before saw.
People were so eager to. get gold that they tatty
thought how to get here. Thousand sport thou

what could 'be obtained here. There aqui none

hundreds have already died, and , thousands more
will dierom starvation, and by the hand of each

hunger, and if you have any. regard for a. brother,
