NORTH WESTERN TERRITORY.

Believing that the proceedings of Congress
together with the corresponding action of the Vir
glna Legislature respecting the North Western
Territory, from which, by a compact between the
State of Virginia and the Congress of the then CON
might DO interesting to many Of our readers just
now, we have taken pains to ascertain the
facts OF the case and to present the following stale
ment.
1t will be borne in mind that the progress Of the
War of the Revolution which lasted from l775 to
1888, had laid heavy burden of debt upon the
country. In anticipation of this evil, Congress as
early as 1880, had recommended TO the several
States having claims 10 waste and unappropriated
lands in the Western country, 10 make liberal ces
sions thereof TO the u. States for tie common ben
eft of the Union. Virginia, in the pleniiude her
generosity, by an act Of the Legislature passed on
the I'd day of January, 1881, yielded 10 the Con-
gress of the u. States, for the common benefit all
claim 10 the North Western Territory, now en-
bracing several distinguished States of the Union
On the Cd Of September, 1883, shortly after the
conclusion of peace, Congress stipulated the terms
on which they agree to accept the cession of Vir-
ginia.
In June, 1888, the Legislature of Virginia ac-
cep'ed the terms, and appointed THos. JEFFERSON
SAM'L HARDY, AsHUR LEE and JAS Monroe
members of Congress from Virginia, to make the
Deed Of cession, and the first of March, 1874
the Deed was signed by these Delegates and ac-
cepted by Congress
In July 1876, Congress recommended to the Lee
gisature of Virginia. 10 revise their act OF cession,
so as TO enable Congress 10 make such division OF
the coded territory into States as might conform to
certain Resolutions of the General Legislature a.
dopted in l7S0.
On the 18th Of July, 1857, the Ordinance for the
government of the North Western Territory was
passed by Congress In this ordinance, six articles
are incorporated, called articles of compact between
the original States, and the people and States of
said Territory, forever to remain unalterable except
by common consent.
The 9Th article forbids any States formed out of
said territory. from coming into the Union, unless
in accordance with these articles.
The 9th article excludes slavery while the Le-
gslature of Virginia, upon the recommendation to
revise, solemnly ratified the 9th article which re-
cognises the whole, by an act passed December
30lh, 1888.
Mr.. WEsTcoTT, of Florida, in his elaborate
speech on the Territorial Bill, in the Senate of the
u. States in July, 1913, admits that this ordinance
of 1877 in connection with the Legislation of Con
gress az TO territories since the adoption of the fed
eral constitution, constitutes the most formidable ar
gument he has encountered upon the free territory
question. 1t is due 10 this gentleman, however, to
say as indeed might be inferred without it, that he
has attempted TO refute the argument.

day, speak ola difficulty that had occurred
between Captain Carr, of the Quarter Mas.
ter's Department, and General Garay, com.
mandant at Tampico. The latter peremp.
torily ordered Capt. Carr, 10 quit The Mex.
lean territory in twenty four hours. Our
countrymen Indignantly refused, alleging
his being subject to no commands except
those Of his Government; on which Gener-
al Garay made display of military force.
Al this juncture, the United States steamer
Saratoga appeared off the port, when Mr..
Chase, the American Consul, and Captain
Carr, went on board to confer with her
commander The result of their delbera.
ton was, that the Saratoga started imme-
diately for Sacrifcios, the rendezvous of
the Gulf Squadron. Thus the affair stands
