The Territorial Question.

In the last number of the "Guard'' ap. peared communication from a cores. pendent over the signature of Jefferson touching upon this question, which has here of late been brought forward as an issue, by some few ultra Southern men, headed by the lactional John c. Calhoun. There is one of two positions only left to be taken upon the question. We must either deny the existence of any right whatever to exist, or if power does ex-. ist, we must rest it in the hands of inc people of the territories, who are directly interested upon the subject. It is conceded on all hands (with the exception of the abolitionists) that the Federal Govern ment has no right to touch the natter Then the fundamental right must rest somewhere. If it does not rest in inc hands of the people forming such territo- ries, we should like to know where it does lie. If the people of the territories are not to regulate and establish all laws ap- pertaining to such territories, we should very much like to know who has the rightn We must take precident for examplss.-.
 The people of the Alabama territory tolerated and regulated the institution of slavery years before that territory became State. They punished all misdemean. ors committed by slaves. The citizens of the Alabama territory bought and sold slaves before that territory became a State, because they found it to their inte- rest to tolerate slavery in that territory.- The soil of that territory was adapted to the raising of cotton and other products, which required slave labor to produce it. The climate was well adapted to the health and yigor of the negro race, and every circumstances tended to the interest of the shareholder while yet territory While on the other hand the people of the Ohio territory did not think that sla- very could be instituted to their profit or advantage, from the fact that the products of the soil of that territory were such as not to require slave labor. Drv
 Now the doctrine that the people of the Alabama territory could not regulate the institution of slavery and establish it while
 
 under territorial Government, is cer- tainly absurd, and without the first princi- pies of consistency. Or that the people of the Ohio territory could not exclude that institution because it was mprofitable, is as equally absurd and foolish. All pow CT, according to the true states-right doc trines, is invested in the people. The only safely to the South, and the, slave in- terest, is to let this matter rest where it properly belongs, in the hands of the-peo- pie of the territories. If this is done all will be well, but so long as the ultraisms of the South conte nd for the intermeddiing no good results will ever accrue..
The State guard., 1848-06-20

He is right on the Wilmot Proviso, and all those great questions in which the South is so vitally interested. And we know of no one of the public men of the day, possessing more of the respect, con fidence, and affection of the whole coun- try than Gen. Cass. fiis past career has proved him to be one of the purest as we'll as ablest members of the Democratic par y; as q politician, liberal and hgh-min ded; as a statesman, philosophical and sagacious, combining the wisdom of stu dy with the practical experience of life ;- as a patriot, lofty and devoted, loving his country with all the ardor of an honest and manly heart. In the more elevated position to which the voice of his coun- try has now called him, that of Chief Mag istrate of this great Republic, (lor with ont some unlocked for blunder on the part of the democratic party his election is certain,) the qualities of heart and mind which have distinguished his past career will be exhibited on wider theatre, and shine with brighter lustre.
 Inc Mobile Register, Flag d5 Advertl- ser, Eulaula Democrat, State Gazette, Marengo Ledger, Camden Telegraph, and in fact every Democratic Press in the State, has cordially, freely and warmly endorsed the nomination of CASS and BUTLER by the National Convention Never, in the political annals of Alabama, has any nomination been so wholly ap- proved by the Press, giving fair indica- ton of what may be expected of her sons on the 7th of November regardless of the attempts of a few to bring new is- sues to bear upon the question of slavery in the territories.

 RrAR SR:-Fou are doubtless appii- zad of the fact that a National Conven- ton of republic an delegates irom the vari- ous portions olthc Union assembled in this city on thc 22d instant, for the purpose of selecting candidates for the two highest executive offices of the United States We arc gratifed in having il in our power to inform you that the convention, with great manimity, agreed to present your name 10 the country for ihe office of Presi- deni. and requested us to communicate to yon this nomination, and solicit your ac- ceptance. In performing this duty, which we do with great pleasure, it is proper that the rcsolations adopted by the convcn- ton and containing the principles upon which they believe the government ought 10 be administered, should be laid before you. These constitute platform broad enough for all true democrats to stand upon, and narrow enough to exclude ali those who may be opposed to the great principles of the democratic party. That these principles will meet with your cordi al assent and support, and be illustrated in your administration, if called 10 this high office by your country, we do moi for mo- ment doubt but feel assured, that whilst you exercise forbearance with frnncss, you will not fail to exert your faculties to maintain the principles and inst comprom- l7as oI the constitution, in a spirit of mode- ration and broIherly love, so viially ossen- tal 10 ihe perpetuity ef the Union and the prosperity and happiness of our common country. We oG6r yoa our sincere con Fratula,ions upon this distinguished mark ot the public confidence, and are, with sentiments of high esteem and regard, dear sir,

From the Huntsville Democrat. Thc Democratic Nominees.

Tho nomination of the Democratic Convention for the Presidency and Vice Presidency, seems 10 be received in every quarter of the Union, by our party, with the most lively demonstrations of pride and joy They receive tho hearty re. sponse of well done, from all democrats of our country, with only an individual ex- cepton, so far as WIG have heard. h. decd, before the meeting of the Conven- ton, we named Gen. Cass as the first choice of Alabama democracy, for WIG found his name on every ones lips as most deserving of that honor. The iiom- ination surprised no one hcre--it was ex- pected as the most probable act of the Convention. The nomination for the
 Vice Pre- sidency could not have fallen on a worthicr or more acceptable man than Gen. Wm. o. Butler,-his name, which was already illustrious, has been rendered yet more illustrious by his courage, patri- otism, and selcdevotion in the battles of Mexico. The characters of Cass and Butler, both as public servants and as pri. yate citizens, are without stain or re- proach. Free from the individual vices that too often sully the regulations of the aspirants for high honors, obnoxious to no imputations. of public oroilicial delin. quency or of polical tergiversation, they present the highest claims upon the con- fidence and respect of their fellow-citizens. Their patriotism has been displayed in the battle field as well as the council chamber: both were highly distinguished for their services in the last war with Englanc :- both have honored themselves and their country in high civil office and while Buffers name is inscribed among the first inthe lis, of heroes in the war with Mex ico, Cass stands first among the patriotic statesmen of the Union, who sustained his country's rights and honor and her government in carrying on that war and prosecuting it to a triumphant and glori ois close. With such men as our candi- dates, We fear not the result of the contest; we anticipate the election of our nomi- nees l'y large majority; weexpect tue union, harmony and concert of our party in their support, which will insure our success. We shall yield our humble but

 riy of purpose, the energy and ability which have characterized his administra- lion in all our affairs at home and abroad {; that we tender to him our cordial congrat- ulations upon the brilliant success which has hitherto crowned his patriotic efforts, and assure him, in advance, that at the ex- piration of his presidential term he will carry with him to his retirement the es- teem, respect and admiration of grateful country.
 ResoIoed, That this Convention hereby present to the people of the United States, LEWIS CAss, of Michigan, as the candi- date of the Democratic party for the office of President, and WILLIAM o. BUTLER, of Kentucky, as the candidate of the Demo- cratic party for the office of Vice Presi- dent of the United States.

TaylOr PrinciDIes..

Its really already becoming more than disgusting to witness with what material and means the whigs are attempting to- ride poor old Gen. Taylor into ofice.-- They have got the gag completely in the old fellows mouth. Ask the whig candi- date for the Presidency what are his opin-. ions about Tariff, Distribution of the public moneys, the Bankrupt law, the as- sumption of the debts of the States by the General Government, and in return he an-. swers, "give them little more grape Capt. Bragg" Ask the whig candidate for the Presidency what are his opinions about .the annexation of Mexico to the United States, ,or whether the American soldiers have right to amalgamate with the Mexican Senoettes, and he will refer you to what "Washington, the great father of his country said'' upon the subject.
 We only mention these nonsenical things to expose in its proper light the base attempts of the whig party, to gull the people of this nation into the elevation of Gen. Taylor to the Chief Magistracy.
The State guard., 1848-06-20

BE The idea of the whig Convention placing Milard Fillmore on the ticket with Gen. Taylor, should arouse the in- dignation of every Southern man. A man who was defeated in even New York, by that good and great man who now lies in the dust, from the fact that he advoca- ted the cause of FREE NEGROES to vote, and is now an avowed Wilmot Pro- viso man!! Southern whigs as well as Southern democrats-Southern people one and all--recollect when you vote for Taylor you vote for Fillmore for the sec ond office, and should you elect Taylor, you place man also in a position that, should Providence think proper to strike from earthly connections Gen. Taylory as was the case with Harrison, this man Ell more becomes the acting President of this Government, and the South becomes ruined section of the Union. . ss
