In 1819, Louis McLane of Delaware —during flie discussion in the Senate that preceded the passage of the Missouri Com-j premise, though himself a slaveholder and! from a slave State, declared lha'— "Nothing can mors gladden the heart than the ! contemplation ul a portion of territory consecrated to Freedllm, whose soil shall never be moistened by the lea|iihf the slave or degradedbytho stop of the oppressor) or 1 - ■ - ..

In diseuasing thecompromise roeaa- ] urea on the s:h of February, 1850, asif l foreboding the present hour I#' his country’s history, Mr. Clay said : . . , «Bul if unhappily, we ehontd be involved in war tK-twebn the ttoo parte of the Confederacy, In which (hh effort upon the.one’ side should tw tp, fUrtntraduclum of slocery into new territory, and oh the dlher side to /ores, tie introduction there, what a rpeptacle should wo present to the astonishment ofmanhimr, in an effort, not to propagate rights— Wl.Tmusi say it though 1 trust it will not bp un derstood to be said with s design to excite feeling-r -f 'aaf to propagvU i erongo in the territory th«s ao. huired from Mexico. Xt-would Sc a war in uAiei ue itif no sympathies, no good taitku— in which oar own history would bo against ue." From the tomb- comes the voice of the sainted dead, to rebuke the efforts making to dsy to establish slavery upon the soil of Kan sas ; and is u for the'freemen of this enun try n it only to turn a deaf ear to the safe counsels of the venerated dead, but to stand in inffifll rPnco to the best Interests of the fu tile?, Will you carry into Kansas the in stitution of slavery under the Bag of’your country I For it is for Congress to say what shall be done, and what kind of insti tutions shall exist there during in territorial . existence. ■On some future occasion I hope to hkve an opportunity to discuss at length the con sii'utiomil power of Congress over -the terri tories ; but «t this lime the'only proper in quiry is, what is ■he cau«e of the unprece dented s'atr of affairs in Kansas, and what can be'done to save that people from' blood shed and oivil war ? The President in his annual Message, after reviewing the-slavery question, closes with ibis rather singular summary of the cause of the present excitement at the Norh : “If the passionate rage of fanaticism and parti san Spirit did not force the fact upon our attention, It would be difficult to believe that any considerable portion of the people of this enlightened country should ]isVo surrendered themselves to a fanatics! devotion to the supposed interests of the relatively few Africans in the United stales, as totally to abac don and disregard the interests of the wenty-tive millions of Americans.” The aft of the lawyer and the politician is ever to associate names made odious'in the public mind wiih what they want to destroy, and upon 'them attempt to excite the preju ft e of men. Sir, the men of the North have not sur rendered themselves to a fanatical devotion to,tfie supposed interests-'of the compara (bw Africans in the United Stales, but they desire to gladden the heart of the patriot for ever with the “contemplation of a portion of territory consecrated to freedom, whose soil shall never bo moistened by the tear of the slave, or degraded by the step of the oppress or or oppressed.” The rights of the citizens of Kansas are the rights of twenty-five millions of Ameri cans, and the wrongs of the one should be ffdoptfed as the wrongs of the other. If Ihe rights of one man in this country can be trampled upon by legislative enactment, the rights of all may. When men are disfranchised by law, and deprived of their nearest and dearest rights, and that law rests upon the Government of the country for its validity and i’s sanction, it comes home to the bosom of every person, no matter in what part of the’Republic he lives ; and he who would set quietly down and permit wrong and injustice to be done to a citizen of the country when he could prevent it, is guilty of a gross der eliction of duly. The freemen of Kansas oro entitled to your protection. Thev are entitled to your protection against invasion at the ballot-box, to your protection against unjust laws which violate all'their rights, your protection in the freedom of speech and the press. The super vision of all their legislation being under the control of Congress, let it, then, do its duty, and remove from tho people these odious en acments which the President has declared must be enforced, and secure to them the free and undisturbed exercise of their civil rights and privileges. The men of the North are but resisting the attempt to subvert the spirit and genius of the institutions of tho Republic ; and the effort to.reverse Ihe decision of the courts making slavery a local, sectional institution, resting upon local law for its support, and to nation alize it by throwing over it the shield and the protection of the Constitution and the Union, wherever it goes beyond the jurisdiction of the local laws which gave it support,—it is against ibis doctrine that the men of the North war, and not in behalf of “the relatively few Africans" in the country. There condition, however deplorable in the States where they etist; is beyond our reach. We must there fore leave them to thoslwho have the control the laws under which they live. wo insist that the flag of the Union shall float, as heretofore, the emblem of freedom, and under iis folds, everywhere, the freedom, of speech and of the press, and the inalienable rights of then, shall be protected. The olher day, in Jersey City, a tall, longrlegged, big, flat-footed, six fool Ver monter came lo us, wnb a rush, holding. iA bis hand a pillow case well-filled, undoubt edly with *' home affairs and fixings,” and also gnawing away on a large cake of gin gerbread, " Can you tell me, air, what time the care come in-t” “ The cars, sir 1" * “Yes, sin\ “ The oars, sir, come in right after the lo comotive."
