• President Buchanan's Inaugural Address
is . a much stronger. pm-Slavery document'
than was that of President Plerce; - and we have

.Pierce in .Rub.ser viency,to. the Slave :Power.
We propose to s eiaminesomeofihe points .
in thefinaugural ofthe neW , Prisident; for the
ptirpose of ascertaining, by his own. aclmis-:
sinus, where the roan who was sUpport&l by'
.the ' Democracy' of this section, on the
ground that he would pursue a different,
policy from that of Franklin Pierce on the .
qnestion-of Slavery in= the Territories, really
stands en . that . , question. Passing by : that.
portion wherein he : invokes' ‘` the Ord of Our
fathers"" to enable bun 4 t.o.preserve our Free
. institutions," as a rhetorical &aria', quite
out of place in -tni address'from one who Owes'
his election to thoSe who kieltiboring by ev
ery means, even violence and bloodshed, to
presere and extend oui. Slatie institutions,
and to , v - hose interests be is pledged by the
Cincinnati platform, we.come to, that part of
his address in which he enunciates' the' new
'cloctriqs that the sham Democracy are now
requiro by their Southern masters - to be.:
lieve. The doctrine of popular sovereignty
—which takes away from Congress the 'pow.;
er it lais always till recently exercised, ()rex.
eluding', Slavery from such 'Territories as it!
Imay se!e, fit—a -doetrine which has- been re.
peatedly condemned by the reg,ular . Detnoe
racy of SUsquehanifiveonnt . y- by resolutions ,
in their county conveutions,and by:their-par
ty organ- 7 -is emphatically endorsed by the.l
, new - P-esident. But the slave holders bar
ing
repudiated,as.dangerous to their interests,
the sinlple popular sovereignty doctrine that
the People of a Territory may manage their
own arairs and consequently 'nay exclude
Slavery while remaining in a Territorial eon
' dition . L . Mr. Buchanan repudiateS•it also,and
proceeds to explain • that by popular sover
eignty 6 'neaps that the people of the Ter
ritory may exclude orrecognize slavery when
they crime to form a State - Omstitution, but
can not exclude it bebre. This construction
permits the practiCal catablinhineat or Stave-.I

jority of its people. Most DernoCratic'doc-4
trine of, popular sovereignty ! It deeltres 1
that COngress shall not make laws excluding
slavery from the , * .Territories, nor shall the i
people of the Territories' themselves. • This 1
doctrine, carried, out 'to its legitimate con
clusion; would make the people of the Terri
to-ries a iitigUlar company . of outlaws, whose,
countr,y refuses to govern, them, or to per
mit thern . to govern themselves.. Such ridie.
ulous doetrines would never have been pro
mulgated, but that Slavery• . demanded that
alf.the Territeries of the 'tinier' - should be
throWtiOnen to it; and the miserable sub
terfuge of popular sovereignty was thought
to afford the most plausible means of delnd.
ing the northern people into - acquiescence in
slavery's demands.' _ .
Mr. !Buchanan edministers a most wither.
ing rebuke to his predivessor . in office, then
he says, in this connection, " It is the imper,
ative -and indispensible duty of the goVern
rnent of the - United States te.secure to every
resident inhabitant Pa Territory] the - free.
and independent expression of his opinion by
his . Vote." We. hope that' Mr. Buchanan,
having sworn to - peTforni the duties of his
high office, will - see that this "imperative du-:
6 , "ofthegovernment'is performed, and not
deliier up the people of . *a Territory ito the
tender mercies .of ruffilinly invaderi i like, his
guilty predecessor. -•" - •
Assuzning that the Slavery question is -set
tled,on the basis of the Nebraska-Kimsisact,
Mr. Buchanan hopes that the long -continued
slavery agitation is-approaching its end.—
That is to say; the Slave Power having tri
timpbed,and secured, by the election of Bu
chanan on the Cincinnati - platform, the appar
ent endorsement ,by the nation of their- de
mand' that Slavery shall have free access• to
'all the Territories; Mr.- Buchanirn'llevoutly
hopes that the opponents of Slaierieicten- .

Slavery is 'las Wrcing nowise it was whenjef

lasjilleri .ryas filled with ' ladies at an early
hour rand members of the 34th and 35th Con
mites were aamitteil to the Ea'stern lebty.
:After the oath was administered, those in the

been erected, from which President Buchanan
delivered, in the presence of a viist eoncoursi,
.his Inaugural Address.—At the dose of the

and was followed by the other dignitaries.—
The crowd renewed their cheering, and thir.

then returned to the Senate Chamber, and

lar The law providing forlhe adoption
of a State. Constitution, passed by the Bogus
Legi4lature of Kansas—over the . veto of Gov.
Geary - which provides that a census of those.

the ISt day of March and the Ist day of A
pril, shall be taken - by the Sheriffs .andtheir
Deputies, and that - lists of the names of such
persons shall be filed with . the Judges of Pro
bate in the respective counties, who shall have
power to alter and amend the same,—is a
.very ingenious plan fur making Kansas a Slave
State. Only those whose naives appear on
-the lists, as amended, will. be entitled to.vote
fur members of the Constitutional Conven
tion ; and the Sheriffs and Judges, of. Probate,,
being all creatures of the Bogus Legislature,
elected by that body, will by this-act be en
abled to make their arrangements symemat
;wily beforehand, so as to ensure a Pro-slave
ry majority in the Convention; and touse-.
vently the adoption of a pro-Slavery.consti
tution. The. act contains no provision foe
referring the, work of the Convention to - the
people, to . be approved or distipprOved by
them. If it is successfully - carried out, Kan
