Here is the resolution : . 4. Jictolvid, That tho Question of tho light of the citizen to hold his slaves in the Territories of the United Status is a judi cial aud not a legislative cpiction, and its decision n committed exchsivdy lo'the Courts. Now, this is to plain that no ono can bo mistaken, and, moreover, it is tho very' doctrine which is entertained and advoca ted by Mr. Rueckixuidue. Rut Mr. Douolas, if we understand his previous speeches aright-, and wo think wo aro not mistaken, insists that tho question of slave ry iu the Territories Unpolitical or legis lative and not a judicial' ono. Ho claims for tho pcoplo of tho Territories, acting through their Legislature, tbo light to'de cido whether thev will admit- or exclude olhtr corporation tax's upon tk?

It is fair to take it for granted', then, that if he is elected Governor he will sign a bill to repeal the Tounago Tax, and would use tho jtower of his office to havo it pass?d through tho Legislature.

So much for his claims upon Pennsylvania. To tho great West ho has been no bono- factor. He has opposed- improvements to rivers and harbors ; protested against tho erection of light-houses aud bacons, aud identified himself among tho opponents of all legislation, m behalf of that section, and yet his followers represent tbe West to bo on fire for Douglas.
