The territories are hut the ere: - tures of - Congress, and Congress, having power to legislate upon the subject of slavery, it cannot invest the territories with that whiet. it does not possess. A territory can esereise no p..wer whatever in relation to shivery.— A Sint" may has the power to establish or aoro►ish it. This is thn tree Democratic meet', as I understood it, on the subject.
