WASIIINcnnN 10

WASHINGTON, Dec. 90.
The Committee on Territories this morning
voted on the subject of suffrage in California.
1t was proposed to make suffrage universal. A
move was made to confne it entirely to the
whites After an animated discussion it was
put to test-Yeas 4, Nays A. Caleb B. Smith,
Chairman, then gave the casting vote in favor of
excluding all color but that which bore the I'M
mistakable opposite of the Pdrah.* Thus is
the California bill to be reported on the same
basis as that of Texas.
The subject of Cabinet making engrossing so
many pens, will state on authority next best to
the odd Generals word of mouth, that he will
not form one, even in supposition, until he reach
es Washington, and shall have had consultation
with his personal and politinal friends.
The Pariahs are the lowest caste of the Hin
docs, and oppressed by all other classes; the
term is therefore appropriate, as applied to the
condition of the African Race in this country
". Y. Tribune.
We would most respectfully inquire whether
this is the policy to be pursued by the "only
genuine anti-slavery party" at the North. Caleb
b. Smith, whig chairman of the Committee on
Territories, voting to exclude all persons of color
from the right Of suffrage Such men will have
a fearful reckoning to make with the people ere
long Let the mark be placed upon them, and
a record made of their political baseness. Rep

The Slavery Question in Congress.

Inc Washington correspondent of the Jour
nal Of Commerce writes, under date Of the 26th :
A proposition is made by some of the North.
e 81 Democrats and Wings in Congress to unite
IN a declaration Of their views on the subject of
slavery, and thus to present to the country the
views ct the moderate and sensible Northern
men on that subject.
I;hey might for instance, declare that they
VIII notabosh slavery in the District of Colum-
Oia' Without the assent of the citizens thereof,
holders
Inc South ought to be content with such a
measnn as this the Southern people, as mass,
VIII De content with it, but some of the pollti-
Clans will not 1t will be found that the North
gn politicians will be more fully supported by
tHeE Constituents in anti-slavery measures, than
tne SSthern politicians will be by their people
IA psdcfI measutos The Northern mem
bers ofNbngress, when forced to a vote on any
question Saching slavery, beyond the region OF
state auteity, are compelled to come mp to the
mark, Or Else to give up all thoughts ola re-clec-
ton 10 Congress-, or of any other mark of popu-
lar confidence. Hence it was that, in the late
canvass for the Presidency, the Northern and
Eastern Taylor men were, in general, Obliged to
profess the most ultra doctrines.
The question has been repeatedly asked, what
god can you expect to accomplish by agitating
the Question of Slavery here at the north? The
above information from Congress answers the
question !. Northern members are compelled
to cOne$ip to the mark, or else to give up all
Thoughts of reelection to Congress, or of any
other bark of popular confidence"

~ politicians Of N. Hamp-
shifeNfWfys talk strong upon whatever SUBJ
ject they may have under discussion. The
Washington Union recently published the
resolutions of the states of South Carolina
and New Hampshire, upon the question of
slavery extension, as being extremes, to re-
concile which the Union calls for concii-
alton and compromise" The New Hamp-
shire Patriot replies
Now we 60 for cancellation and compro-
mise in every case where there is a conflict
of rights; but we have yet to learn that
there is any such conflict in the matter in
question. The Southern people have no
rght-natural, moral, or political-to force
slavery upon the new territories. They have
no more right to go there and hold slaves,
than they have to do so in New Hampshire La
We object,
and the people Of the North object, to any
compromise by which slavery will be allow
ed to pollute one foot of territory that is
now free. The shareholders have no more
right to plant slavery upon free territory
than we have to abolish slavery in South
Carolina; and we believe that no member
of Congress, who fails to resist any and ev-
ely attempt to allow slavery in any portion
of our new territories, will escape the sever
es: condemnation and total political death,
at the hands of the people of the North,
The Patriot treats the Southern resolu-
tons and the excuses of the Union quite as
unceremoniously. 1t says
The resolution passed by South Carolina
declares that in regard to this question,
"the time for discussion has passed" and
that she isprepared to resist the doctrine OF
non-extension " at any and every hazard'
Is not this running to extremes They de-
clare in effect that they will resist even at
the point of the bayonet-that they will not
listen to any talk about compromise, for
"the time for discussion has passed. a2d
they will fight to the death and ue1uge 'tfc
country with blood before they will yield an
iota This is Southern talk and bluser al
ways upon this question. And this is what
the Union seems to consider very moderate,
reasonable and concilatory! This is not
running to extremes-oh, no! Really we
should like to know what our venerable CO.
temporary would call running to extremes
in the Southern direction, upon this sub
ject.
The Union must endeavor to reason with
its refractory friend, for it will not do to at
tempt to read the Patriot out Of the party.
That system of depletion has been carried
too far already, for the health of the Demo
cracY.

MR.. WEBSTER AND GENERAL TAYLOR.
There is good story in circulation in the citv.
respecting Mr.. Webster and Gen. Taylor, which
is worth repeating, though almost to good to be
true. It IS SAID that Mr.. Webster sent copy
OF his Marshield speech to Gen. Taylor, and
since the election, has received letter from the
old General acknowledging the receipt of the
speech. In regard to the expression of Mr..
Webster that the nomination of Gen. Tavlor
for the Presidency was one not fit to be made.
the General says he was much Of Mr.. Webster's
opinion, at the time of the nomination; but
thinks, that since the people of the United
States are of different opinion, it may be best
for both himself and Mr.. Webster to revise theiI
opinions Boston Traue!er.

BRP. SCOTT: The foregoing communication,
from one of the venerable Fathers in our cause,
came into my hands just previous to my surren-
derng the Freeman Office into your hands. I
thenfq IRE desire to append word of comment,
In ration to one or two points.
The reduction in the price of the Freeman
last!eA was made contrary to the urgent re-
monarance of the experienced author of the
foregoing article. The result has proved that
he knew human nature better than we. In the
ardoiOf our feelings, we verify believed that ev-
cry I'D subscriber to the Freeman would contin-
ne pay his dollar and half; and that thus
we should be enabled to push our paper into
thousands of new hands, at one dollar, and dis
semiIate our principles far and wide. But the
sequel has proven US mistaken to some extent.
Too little effort was made to extend our circua
ton, and too many of our old subscribers took
advantage Of our offer, and retained the so cents
in Their own pockets. But there is misappre-
hensiM existing in the minds of many respecting
the coalition of the reduction in the price Of the
Freemn. Many appear to have supposed that our
termsvere reduced to 81, Internationally and
irreslctively, and for all future time. This was
a intake. Our proposed reduction only ap-
plie(and was only designed to apply, to the past
ediOapmencing and ending ,cih The fifth aOlume

dmes as paid pail arrears, and paid their dol
in advance for the fifth volume. So that no
scrSer has had rec bon to expecy that his pay
pld tPAy bqyoytNbe l9t Jan. 1S4F, at the
SE5f yn9dollar Syesr. We have desired to
"A this explanation in justice to all concerned,
al TO save all misappl Allow us to
join with " An old mal," in the earnest hope that
no man who has received his paper the past year
for 81, will fail to continue another year al
1901 Tie cause of justice and freedom requires
it.
A wo'd respecting the enlargement of the pa
per. Our correspondent doubts the propriety o.
enlargny, but prefers the exclusion of advertise
ments, This latter measure is impossible, un
der the present system OF newspaper publishing
No paper can be furnished, of the size of ou
large newspapers, for $3.50 per year, withou
the benefit of standing matter, paid for as adver
tlsemens. Undoubtedly you would be very glat
to exclude such matter entirely, provided three
thousand of your subscribers would pay So PEE
year Tor their paper. But so long as many pay
nothing, many more are willing to pay but 81
and none exceed $3.50, advertisements canno
be excluded. 1t was for the purpose of saving
to ourselves this necessary help, and still furnish
an additional amount Of reading matter, that We
proposed to enlarge the size of the Freeman.

HIsToRIcAL.-The history of Midas might be
read just now with profit. That ancient gentle
man being permitted to ask any favor of the
gods he pleased, was cute enough to demand
that whatever he touched might be turned into
gold. His prayer was granted, but when he
found that even the meats he attempted to eat
turned to gold in his mouth, he was sick of his
bargain and begged the gods to take back their
gift. Soon after this we find him sporting pair
of asses ears, all of which is very interesting.
