The Hon. Ayleu Buekner.

This gentleman, the Congressional Repress,,,
tive from the Fourth District Of Keptuekv l..
made a speech on the organization Of tsrri,r,,I
governments in California and New sIexieo nh.
reflects the highest credit upon him as an All,
wise and practical statesman. This speech IA.
given Mr.. Buckner a high position as a deb,,.,
and is an earnest Of what Kentuc Nv NAV b.,s q,
from him. His positions were amply orifstb,
quotations from the Sessions Of The S1yr,rs
Court Of the United States, from opinions Of "a.
Supreme Courts Of Kentucky, Mississippi and
Louisiana, and by references to the action Of Can,
gress in relation TO Louisiana, Missouri. For.5,
Michigan, Wisconsin, &c, and to the aporo,,l n
this action by jefferson, Monroe, Jackson and Van
Buren,.
The position Of Mr.. Buckner, which he I'm,
triumPhantly fortified, is that freedom is The uni.
versallaw, and thatslavery, according to the 81.
PTeme court Of Mississippi, els Condemned by
reason, and the law Of nature; il exists. and "a,
exist only through municipal regulations ms
is the language of the supreme court Of Mississv-
Pi, and the supreme courts Of Louisiana and hen.
lucky hold the same sentiments, and express them
in nearly the same language.
In establishing territorial government for lou
isiana, Congress imposed these restrictions on h
subject of slavery, and the bill was approved ~
Mr.. jefferson In this case Congress imposed e
strictions upon slavery, even in territories in
which II existed. Thesame principles, or powers
rather, were used BY Congress in the Territorial
bills for Michigan, nhnous, Missouri, Ala5ams,
Arkansas, Florida, Wisconsin and OregOn. The
extreme claim, set up BY the South now, was IN
heard of then Mr.. Buekner contends thsi the
uniform action Of Congress, upon this subject,
should be pursued now.
Mr.. Buekner's constituents have night TO feel
proud of him. He has produced much the oes,
speech that has been made during the present ses-
sion of Congress.

slave Trade q. the District Of CeIu M HIN.

The following is the memorial from the mem
bers of the board Of Aldermen and Common
Council of the city Of Washington, in referenc,
to the slave traffic in the District of Columbia
The.petition was presented by Hon. J. P. Gaines
Of this State:
To the Honorable the Senate and House of P,ny,
seHtdtires Of the United States in Congress as
sem6led:
The undersigned, members of the board of al.
demen and common council of the CITY OF
Washington, having in common with their fel.
low-citizens, long regarded with disapprobation
the importation of slaves into the District Of
Columbia for purposes ofsale OF traffic elsewhere.
and deemlng it alike prejudicial to the interest
OF our city and offensive to public sentiment.
request your honorable body to restrain such
traffic by the enactment of some law similar in
its provisions 10 that embraced in the code Of
laws for the District of Columbia, reported 10
the House Of Representatives in the year 1882.
by Mr.. Wilde, of Georgia, and to the Senate by
Mr.. Chambers of Maryland-the enactments in
the adjoining States of Maryland OF Virginia on
this subjecr-or gran. to the respective corporate
authorities OF Washington and Georgetown such
powers as viii enable them to remedy this evil.

Plan OF Emancipation Again.

| GESrLgMEN:-You are entitled to the respec
and gratitude of all the lovers OF truth and rea
son for the ground you take in favor of free dis
cussion, and its application to the subject O
slavery in Kentucky. If every press in tn
Commonwealth woald take this ground, tn
great questions which have been opened by tn
voice Of the people demanding a convention
might be thoroughly discussed with calmnes
and moderation. The light Of reason and e1
penence would indicate the public good, ant
the great body of the people following that ligh
would settle the questions rightly and be salts
fed.
Your comments upon what have written sug
gest several questions for my consideration. L
is impossible to go into them all just now-othe
duties do not allow me the time, and if they did
it would make this communication longer thar
men would read. hope to consider then
hereafter. To one OF them, however, I mus
allude. Do understand you TO deny the evil,
of slavery, and to depreciate the value of per
sonal liberty? In the midst of the reasoning
which seems to look to such conclusions, vol
say, tive are not yet certain, however, that oul
boosted liberty and equality may not turn out
more theory than fact. The great necessity o.
mankind after all, is home, food and raiment
When man has secured the possession of these
he can consider the glories of liberty and equali
ty." Gentlemen, do you consider the belly and
the back the principal parts Of man? Where
is the minda Where the spirit, which the Crea.
tor breathed into mans nostrils, when He made
him living soul, on which He stamped His i'm.
age, and which, if you do not crush it, struggles
to be free, even as it pants after knowledge and
Immortality? Sins, would you rather have ga
home, food and raiment," and be slaves-or 60
forth wanderers, hungry and naked-and be free
mens
But passing all else for the present, let us con.
slider the plan Of emancipation which has been
proposed. A plan, repeat, the credit of which
is not due tome-a plan to which would not OBJ.
stinately adhere, but one which comments itself
to my mind above any other yet proposed. Some
may think, with you, that the necessity and pro-
priety of offering any plan of emancipation ought
inst, to be made manifest. But the people clearly
have opened the whole question, and invited the
solving of its difficulties. am very willing to
argue thoseparticular points at another time, but
prefer now to confne myselfto consideration
If the plan.
If 1t can be shown that there is a reasonable,
afe, and practicable mode Of bringing slavery to
IN end in Kentucky, then some of the most dit.
cult problems belonging to the subject are
olved; and the way is fairly opened for US. the |
overeign people, to consider whether we will |
ause slavery, one day, to cease on this soil, and
lake this to become, in the true sense, free !

President Roberts, Of the new Republic OF
Liberia, it is well known, was treated with grea,
attention in London, and sent home with honor
in British frigate. When dining at che Prus.
sian Ambassador, Mr.. Roberts sat next Lord
Ashley, who inquired very particularly as 10 the
best means Of putting down the slave trade.
Mr.. r. told him the most sffectual way would
be to purchase the Gallinas territory. between
the Sierra Leone colony and the republic of Lii
IBERIA; thus seven hundred miles of coast would
be forever guaranteed against the slave trade
His lordship asked how much money would
buy il; to which Mr.. R. replied f2 900. Lord
A. said the enterprise must be set about imme-
diately; and after they rose from table, he
went to Mr.. Quincy and proposed to him to
buy and present this territory to the new Re.
public. Mr.. G. received the proposition favor
ably, and requested Mr.. Roberts to call upon
him in Lombard street next morning, when Mr..
G. gave him an obligation for half the amount,
200. Afterwards arrangements were made
to make up the remainder.

G5The American Colonization Society ia M.
sng IFS claims upon the government Of the United
States for remuneration for expenses incurred BY
administering othe relief OF the 756 re-captured
Africans landed at Monrovia, from the bark pons,
n January, 1876. They were taken thither by the
naval officer who had charge of the vessel, in a
state of utter destitution, and were at once thrown
upon the bsnevolence Of the people of Liberia for
the supply of their pressing necessities. The
Government agent at that point, had but $1,000 in
bis hands for their support, and nothing had since
been added. Our Government can hardly refuse TO
meet so equitable claim.
