The Canal Board and the Publics
Works.
111:7•The Harrisburg Union, the "or
gan" of the yennsylvania Detnoerney, ie
down on the Canal Commissioners in a se
vere article, charging them with using
their official influence to defeat a sale of
the Public Works, as provided by the Bill
triads-has
_passed both branches of the
Legislature. The Union calls upon the,
Legislature forthwith to abolisluthe Canal
Board. Nye quote a paragraph or two from
the Union
We repeat the inquirywltat should
be done with a Board who thus boldly sat
at defiance the wishes of the people and
the legislature ? There can be but one
answer to this question, unless the opinion
be entertained that the Board are, and of
I right ought to be, the riding power of the
Slate—and that answer is turn thensout:
They are but creatures of law, and the
same power which created can destroy
them. We trust, therefore, that there
will be found in the legislature sense, hon
esty. manliness enough to meet - the enter
gem, and hurl these would-be dictators
from a position which they have long
enough disgraced.
We require no Board of-Commissiouers
to mismanage the improvements of the
State. Whether the works be gold or re
tained, the public interest demands that
the office of Canal. Commissioner should be
abolished. It would be the most popular
measure of the present legislature; the
crowning act of all their endeavors to sub
serve the public interests; and we cal_
upon them,in the name of a vast majority
of the peope of the commonwealth, toper
form their duty. We trust that there will
be no faltering. The line of duty is plain,
and we believe it will be followed. An
illustrious Speaker of a former Rouse of
Representatives l in a great crisis, failed in
the proper diseharge of duty forwent of
nerve—let the present General Assembly
avoid the pernicious example,• I

COngrete•-.lllr. Benton on the Ne•
-4- braska Question.
,@ The Senate, after a protracted con
sidetation of the Gadten treaty, finally a
dopted It with material modifications by a
vote of 82 to 12 on Tuesday:, It was vo
ted tlown a week or two ago, but was ta
i ken up again, amended, and passed. Our
Government gives Mexico 810,000,000, se
; curing therefor 18,000 square miles of ter
ritory, the right of way for a railroad, and
the abrogation of that part of the-former
treaty which makes the U. States respon
sible for Indian depredations on the Mex.
ican_froutier.
The treaty goes back to Mexico to re
,
Iwive Santa Anna's approval ; and as he
wants money badly it will doubtless be rat
lified by' , him. • ' ,
In dui Ilouse of Representatives, on
Tuesday,' Mr.. Ewing submitted a resolu
tion calling on the President for informa%
I
tion With reference to the stops taken by
our Government to secure to. American
vessels the rights of neutrals, and request
ing information as .to whether Great Brit
sin a assumed to act for Spain in the no
gotiationdoonsequent on the seizure of the
Black %trier at Havanna. It was re
ferred to I the Committee on Foreign Af
fairs.
But the:notable - event of the week is the
Espeech of Mr. Benton in the House on the
Nebraska bill. It being undenitood that
"Old Bullion" would speak -on TtieidaY
the galleries were crowded Wan early
•
hour, and when he rose to speak the mem
bers crowded around hub in expectation of
something rich and racy Nor were they
disappointed.
Mr. Benton made a most terrible on
slaught upon tho bill, denouncing all its
concomitants, eiders, and abettors, in his
own peculiar style. ' The attempt of the
President and his Cabinet, and of the
Washington "Union," to 'dragoon Con
gress null support of the bill, canle in for
a full slial.e of denunciation. lie warmly
defended the Ordinance of 1787 and the
Compromise of 1820, as not only constitu
tional but hinting upon the nation, and bore I
down very,severely upon the new-fan gled
notions of modern politicians in regard to
the right of Congress to legislate on the
subject or slavery in the territories—a right
which Mr. Benton maintained had never
been disputed until within a few years.
We annex a few paragraphs from Mr.
Bentou'e'sNech by way of specimen :
"And what is all this hoteh-poch for?
his to establish a priiiciple, they say—the
principle of non-intervention—of squatter
sovereignty. Sir, there is no such princi
ple. The'Territeries are the children of
the States: T i lley are minors under 21
years of age; Intl it it the business of the
States, through . their delegations in Con
gress; to take care of these minors till they
are. of age—until they are ripe for State
goverunieut—then give them that govern
ment, and'atimit theta to an equality with
their fathers. ,
That is the law and the .smse of the
case, and has been so acknowledged since
the first ordinance in 1787, by nil the au
thorities,
Federal and State, legislative, ju
dicial and executive. The States in Con
gress are the guardians of the Territories,
and we are bound to exercise the guardian,.
ship, and cannot abdicate it without a
breach of trust and a dereliction of duty.
Territorial sovereignty is a monstrosity,
born of timidity and ambition, hatched in
to existence in the hot incubation of a
Presidential canvass, and revolting to the
beholders when first presented. Well do
I remember that day when it was first
shown in the Senate. Mark. Antony did
not bettter remember the day when Cesar
first put on that mantle through which he
was afterwards pierced with three and twen
ty "envious stabs." It was in the Sonata in
18418, and was received as nonsense—as the
essence of nonsense—as the quintessence
of nonsense—as the five times distilled ,es
sence of political nonsensically. * * *
I object to this .shilly-shally-willy
, worety-tion'ty-can'ty style of legislation.
It is not legislative. It is not parliamen
tary. It is not manly. It is not woman
ly. No wotuan would talk that way. -No
shilly-shally in a woman. Nothing of the
female gender was over born "young" e
nough, or lived long enough, to get befog !
ged in such a quandary asthis. Its is one
thing or the other with them, and *hat
they 'say they stick to. No breaking bar
gains with
,thin. • * • *
Thr i ce dogmasnow afflict the land, viz. :
squattersovereignty, don-intervention, and
no power in Congress to legislate upon
slavery in the territories. And this bill
asserts the whole three—and beautifully
illustratetrtfie whole three by knocking
each one on the head with the other, and
trampling each under foot in turn. Sir,
this bill does deny 'Squatter sovereignty,
and it does intervene, and it does legislate
upon slavery in.the territories ; and tor the
proof of that see the bill; see it, oath° law
yers say, patriots, that is to say, hero, and
there, and every where. It is a bill of as
sumptions and contradictions—assuming
what is unfounded, and contradicting what
it assumes—and balancing, every _ affirma
tion by a negation.. 'lt is a see-saw bill;
but not.the innocent see-saw which child
ren play on a plank stuck theough a fence ;
but the up and down game of politicians,
played at the expense of the peace and har
mony of the Union, and at the sacrifice of
all business in Congress. It is an =phi bologieal bill,ituffed with monstrosities,
hobbled with contradictions, and Badgered
with a, proviso.
Mr. Benton spoke his -hour, when the
Speaker's hainmer cut , short his remarks.
Several members sprang to , the floor at
mice, which was secured by Mr.
iorth. The latter 'Moved nominal a•
menchnent to the bill before the hotise, and
then gave the floor. to Mr. Benton,,whoie

considered in a fair way to recover from

made personal observations. He thinks
the number of acres sown is one-fifth great

of its principles will be - sufficient to show
the chartiCter of the association. It de
dares slavery shall be excluded from all
territory, and extinguished in the several
States; that public lands shall be given
for nothing to pc;or setfilars, and the colo
nist be aided further with .government
funds. There .shall be no Sabbath laws,'
thanksgiving days, or • Bibles in tree
schools, or oaths administered in courts of
justice; that the Popo shall not be allow
ed to exercise,, through' any agents, any'
, influence in the United States, and that
Jesuits shall be treated as declared one
mien of the republic. All elections shall
!issue directly from the people; any shigi
hie citizen of any State may be elected a
member of Congress by the'citizens Of any
other State; any representative may at
any time be recalled by.a majority of his
constituents, and •replaced by another.—
