Bilt,lf the power to legislate upon this delicate and important subject were elpar: ly .vested in Cutgress, - in my judgment it. ought not to be- exercised. To declare that slavery shall not exist ip the Terri tories, is calculated to exclude from their occupancy the citizens: of 'the. Southern or sluveholding States; while, - to make it i a legal institution in all the. Territories of , the United: States, by Congressional en-1 actinent, and to provide:for its continu- enee during their entire Territorial exist twee, would- be equally injurious to the. ; people of the free States._ The principle' adopted - ill' the Compromise measures of 1850, for dispdsing of.the question of slavery in New Mexico and Utah, and reiterated in the Kansas and Nebraska till's of 1854, of nonintervention by Con gress with slavery in the States and in the - Territories, is the true rule. It is the duty of Congress, when a sufficient num; tier of hardy and adventurous pioneers find' their way into - our distant Territo ries, to furnish them a shield of protcc- . Lion and a form of government; but to the people themselves belorigs. the right to regulate their own domestic instltu• :ions in their own way, subject only to the Constitution of the United States. While these views have been long en tertained by me, and while I am sincere ly of the opinion thatetheir general Ali tion, and faithful enforcement, would have I preserved, and may yet restore, peace and harmony to all ecctions of our country, I lam nevertheless not So wedded to them !as to reject, unceremoniously, all other !propositions' for the settlement of the I vexed questions which now threaten to sunder the bonds which for three.quarters , of a century have made us one people. IForty years ago, our fathers settled an !angry controversy. .growing out of a simi-, !lar question, by dividing the territories purchased from France, and providing !that slavery, or involuntary servitude, should not exist north of a certain line ; and the whole mimicry acquiesced in that compromise. In 1854, that restriction lupon slavery was removed, and the peo ple of all the Territories were left free to !dee tle the question for themselves. 'Now Ithe sectional issue is again presented. by line dominant party in the North, c!aini lue• that slavery cannot legally go into the' Territories, even if sanctioned by Con ; gress, or the Territorial Legislature; and that it is the right and duty. of Congress I to prohibit its existence.; while the doc trine which obtaies with a majority of the people. in most of the Southern States is that, under- the Constitution, the Ter iritories urc. , all . open to slavery ; thatnei ; ther Cotgreis nor .the Territorial Legis- Ilature car') lawfully prohibit its existence, and that it is the duty of Congress to pro- Lvide for it elltneedful protection. May we not wisely follow the example of our fathers, by re-enacting the old coin promise line of 1820, and extending it to the boandary of California? Not by means of legislation of doubtful constitu tionality, but by an .amendment to the Constitutioli itself, and thus, permanently fix the condition of the. Territories, so that khose who desire to occupy them .may find a home, at their discretion, eithtr lwhere slavery is tolerated, or where it is prohibited. If the adoption of such an amendineet would peacefully settle the ;difficulties which now surround us, I am ;satisfied that it . wt maid be sat ctioned by Ithe people of Pennsylvania. :tall events, thev'should have an opportunity to accept !or reject it, if made as a neace-offe.ing. I would. therefore, recommend the Gen eral• A ssembly to instruct and request our ! Senators and Representatives in Congress Ito support a proposition for such an amendment of the Constitution, to be sub mitted for ratification or rejection, to a convention of delegates, elected directly • by the people of the State. !In the, event of the failure of Congress speedilyp to propose this or a similar !amendment, to the Constitution, the citi zens of Pennsylvania should have an op portunity, by the application' of some peaceable remedy, to prevent the dismeui ! berment of this Union. This can only be done by Calling a convention of dele gates, to be elected-by. the people, with a view solely to the consitieration of what measures should be taken to meet the Ipresent fearful exigencies. If Congress should propose no remedy; let it emanate from the source of all authority, the peo ple theinseives. lEveryattempt, upon the part of indi , viduals, or of organized societies, to lead the people away from their allegiance to the Government, tet induce them to violate any of the provisions of the Jonstitution, lor to incite insurrections in any of the States of thisjinion, ought to be prohib ited' by . law, a's .eritnes of a treasonable nature.

B. Minim Schools. • m ,MR. EDITOR P erm i t m e 'to says fete words through your columns, to the friends of education in this county;_on the subjp.. - 3., or visiting schcols : A great deal has beensaid and written on the ne cessity of school visitation, by parents, Directors and teachers, all of which no doubt, excellent advice; and ought to , be generally adopted. I wish, however, to call attention to the manner of making these visits. Miny persons, on visiting a'school, seem to forget that a school cam not ba a successful one unless the author. ity of the teacher is n3aintained, good or der preserved, and the undivided atten tion of all the pupils secured.,''.On enter. log the room they commence a,noisy tams versation with the teacher on some subf ject not even remotely connected with the business of the 56001, and this con versation is kept up until the duties of the school compel the teacher to break it off. Then they. walk heavily across the room to a seat'. Here, if more than one' is present, a whispering conversation carried on about the • schwa house, the. furniture, the recitations or perhaps gos siping, and political discussion' is intro duced. Sometimes visitors go so far as to select some pupil with whom they are . acquainted, and whisper to him about his studies, how he enjoys attending school, &c., and soon tl:e attention of the whole school is drawn Upon them. However beneficial visits-may be when properly conducted, such will always produce mote injury than benefit to' the school favored . with them. Good order is orthe first im portance in school, and every visitor who. needlessly dis'urbs the quiet of study, or the routine Of 'recitation, is thereby re tarding ita progress. Parents no doubt. wish their children to imitate their vir 'tucs, and while they are visiting at school„ their conduct should be such as might properly be imitated by every pupil. I have had the pleasure - of visiting several: schools in company of Directors, and have- - not always been able to - commend their deportment. I was also present in sev eral instances, while the former County- Superintendent was making his official - 1 , iospectico, and sometimes even thought., him open to objection in this respect.. - .Concerning the present incumbent I am • unable to speak, hope he may fiedt my remarks worthy of his attention. My' idea of the manner of Visiting a school is • as follows : . Ist. After a friendly salutation tiPthe • teacher; take the seat offered you at once• and- -without .noise; then be a quiet tat attentive observer of all the exercises... 2nd. If yon wish to make any sagges . -• Lions- to a class, do it as briefly as post-' ble, atWays first obtaining : the teachers.
