upon the subject orihe QlgBftnrati DPtnotSttic
Convention,'irf which, in beh'atf er ihe-South
and. of Slavery, he'gives the Democratie
pgrly the following credit for seryile work
aodjabor done and performed:
The northern Demounts aided as to bring
ityo thy Tp*s», a nj.agnificent slave
holding Territory—large enough to make
four slave Slates, j»4 strengthened us more
io that peculiar interest than was ever before
done by a single act of the Federal Govern
ment. Since then., they have amended a very
imperfect fugitive slave law, passed in 1793,
and have given us now a law for the recov
ery of fugitives slaves, as stringent as the
ingenuity of man could devise. Since then,
they hove aided us by their votes in establish
ing the doctrine of non-intervention with
slavery by Congress in the Territories. Since
then they have actually repealed the Missouri
restriction, opened the Territories to settle
ment, and .enabled vs, if the South will be
true st) herself to aid in peopling Kansas, to
form another Stale. In 1643 a man would
have been, pronounced insane, had he predic
ted that slavery would be introduced there by
the removal of Congressional restrictions.

seemed to every oue who witnessed the opening aud interior

deeply gratified to learn the good condition in which I discov

other valuable docnuenU, when on Friday last I opened the
safe made by your firm.
With my knowledge of its great cxposuro r both to tho Inten

the Artisan Building, as a!*o from tho force of tho fall froffi
its former elevated position in tho third story, 1 could enter
tain but slender hopes prior to its Interior inspection, that
the contents which 1 once so highly prited would ever l«> of
any service to me, bat as those fears am now happily re*
