~‘ „ .bas,dtsdtiguished bimetal lately by a va
of adventures, two of which will
servo ehow the character of the
' Atynit hni,w3oks ago Titus took pas
; of a Claim near Leeonipton, which
beloUged to a Free State. ,non named
Smith, one of the first settlers in Kansas.
• la : Smith's temporary • absence he tore
down his • house and erected a shanty of
his own. Wheu Smith returned he rel.
lied anew of his neighbors and re-erecter'
it s wh e r eupon'l' with s up erior
number canto and ordered him off.—
''` Smith refused to go; a fight , ensued ;
"'"Titus and his party triumphed and the
•" :bnihling was burned to the ground. Shan:
ton was then applied to by Smith's friends
'...• for protection. He promised to do some
: "thing about it, and the next day sent a
company of dragoons to protect 711tes in
, hitassanted right to the claim and
proventents, furnishing another beautiful
illustration of squatter sovereignty.
Sunday night this same Titus went
to the house of a Mr. Hancock, a Free
State man, ono of his neighbors,and was
acCompanied by a few of the,faithFul from
• Lecdinpton. He demanded pay for some
cattle which 'he charged Mr.' Haneock
with having killed. Mr. H. protested that
tie,had killed ou cattle. • Titus then Mid
itiru that • tie moat pay for them or he
would have his life .on .the.• spot. The
.„: Inott door of the house was , then closed,
, so! Hancock lied to the prison , camp a
, bout a mile distant to call the drugeous.—
tn the meantime they broke open Alto
dock, a scuffiti ensued between Titus, and
tare. Hancock, during _which' she &farm.

so expressed ourselves. Wodid not doubt
for one menient that upon Mr. Fillmore's
return , from Europe ha would place him
self right , on the record in regard to the
Repeal of the Missoari Compronthe and
the bold aggressions of the Slave Power.
'Ho' has seen fit, however, to preserve a
profound, silence upon these, nuttters, and

And the question asssumes a still graver
aspect when we• consider that a portion of
the territory which it is thus proposed to
throw open as a market for human cattle,
is the ill-feted Kansas, from which Slavery,
by a soletnn and sacred compact, had been
exchided forever, but which compact the
South, in violation of plighted faith, after a
lapse of thirty-four years, during which
it had realized its full share of the eatnpro

Lo o k at the sentiments of the great and,

der tho question well :
"There are gentlemen who
maintain that, by virtue of the
Constitution, the right to carry
slaves into the territories alrea
dy. exists. If I had not heard
that opinion avowed, I should
have regarded it as one of the
most extraordinary assumptions,
and the most indefensible posi
tion that was ever taken by
man. The Constitution nei
ther created nor does it contin
ue Slavery. Slavery existed
independent of the Constitution;
and it was dependent, not upon
the will of Congress but upon
the laws of the respec tive' States.
The Constitution is silent and
passive.upon the subject of the
institution of Slavery ; or, rath
er, it deals with the fact 88 it
exists in the States, without
having created it, or continued
it, or being responsible for it in
the slightest degree. * *
If slaves are voluntarily carried
into such a jurisdiction, (where
Slavery 1 does not exist,) their
chains instantly drop off, and
they become free, emancipated,
liberated from their bondage.
* * * If the Constitution
possesses the paramount author
ity attributed to it, (that is, to
protect Slavery in the Territo
ries,) the laws even of the free
States of the Union would yield
to that paramount authority. -
.*
* * You cannot put your
finger on the part of the Consti
tution which conveys the right
or the power to carry slaves
from one of the States of the
Union to any Territory of the
United States."
"Sir, I have said that I never
could vote for it, and I repeat
that I NEVER CAN and NEVER
WILL vote for it, and no earthly
power shall ever make me vote

VERY DOES NOT EXIST."-
Illuchnium and Old Whigs.
at:rlu 1852, James Buchanan, in his
Greeuaburg Speech, in which he ridiculed
Winfield Scott and urged the election of
Franklin Pierce, because pledged to the
Compromise of 1850 us a final settlement
of the Slavery Question, spoke iu the most
i contemptuous and insulting manner of the
i iVhig party, its loaders and policy. Allu
ding to its repeated changes of name, ho
!commented especially upon one then re
cently claimed by some Whigs, Demozratic
lWhig. He said of this, that "you, could
ir
well conceive et a white blackbird; or 'a
Christian unbeliever as a Democratic
Whig." Ho thus lent himself to the cir-
; eulation of the base calumny that the
'Whig piny were a party of monarchists,
enemies to their country and foes to Libor

I
1 which years of fraud nod falsehood have
prepared and induced , the people to inflict.
' And, at once, Buchanan eats his own
words, forgets , his past bassinet's, ignores
his late slanders, 'melts to bury the memo

-1 pudently, dares to praise those whom,
Your years ago, he denounced , with unsur:

and his hypocritical followers shed crow
dile tears over the fallen fortunes of that

Vile and palpable hypocrisy ? Old Whigs
should despise these efforts; and spurn
from their presence these men, who have
shown themselves competent for knavish
calumniators or sycophantic flatterers as
the imagined necessities of party have re

PHYSIC DISARMED Oh' ITS TER
RORS.—Every person is interested in hear
ing that Dr. Clickener, of New York, has in
vented a medicine of the most certain -and
powerful-purgative qualities, which is yet so
gentle that its operattolui on the system are en
tirely unfelt. Its action is. altogether unatten
ded with
its
or nausea, and still more to
enhance Its value, it is coated with white sugar,
so that it leaves no unpleasant taste. iu the
mouth. In fact its flavor is so, unlike.paysie,
and its action so perfectly gentle, that, any
person may swallow a dose
,without suspecting
that he has liken physic at all, unless, through
its ultimate effect, which is powerful and posi
tive; even on the must costive constitutions.—
We need 'not imminent on these great advanta
ges of Clickener's Sugar-coated Vegetable
Purgative Pills, over other medicines, as they
must be obvious to all, for there are but few
persons who do not re4iire physic occasional
ly, and fewer still who have not a recited aver
sion to the nauseous sad rucking compounds
which, before the appearance of these Pills,
Were the only characters which physic ever as
sumed. In less than five yeani t Clickener's
Sugar-Coated Vegetable Pills will supersede I
all other purgative medicines; for person
will consent to have his Stomach turned, and
his bowels racked with the old fashioned pre
parations, When he might have the desired ob
pet accomplished much more thoroughly by a
new one, whirs*: street is unaccompanied by the
slightest efrensive sensation.
The Pill may belied or illtopkenixirs in every
city,lown, or village in the U. States.

into the. blood.' This produces Jaundice, with a
long and dangerous train of evils. Costiveness, or

and the white of the eyes become a greenish yellow ;
the stomach acid ; the bowels sore to the touch;
the whole system irritable, with a tendency to fever,
which may turn to bilious fever, bilious colic, bilious
diarrhcca, dysentery, &c. A. medium dose of three
or four Pills taken at night, followed by two or three
.in the morning, and repeated a few days,will remove
the cause of all these troubles. It is wicked to stiffer
such pails when , you can cure them for 25 cents.
RHEUMATISM, Gorr, and all kribmstatory Fe

those Pills upon the blood and the stimulus which
they afford to the vital principal of Life. For these ,
and all kindred complaints they should be taken in
mild doses, to move the bowels gently, but freely.:
As a Oilmen PILL, this is both agreeable and
useful. tTo Pill can be made more pleasant to take,
and certainly none has been made more effectual to
the purpose for which a dinner pill is employed.
