We Of the centre, are entirely willing
to support any good Wing, and so may
be the Wings of the extremes, but we
should prefer meeting them in conven

not only on The subject of candidate
for Congress, but upon The canvass fol

much Importance as Congress, ond
which may be of vastly more. We
want thorough organization and per.

SLAVERY COMPROMISE.

In the Senate, on the 2sth ut., Mr.
BELL, of Tennessee, presented his plar
of compromise. prefaced by q few re
marks. His resolutions were ordered
TO be printed, and are as follows
Whereas, considerations Of the highest in,
teTest 10 the whole country demand that The
existing and increasing dssensions between
the North and the South, on the subec, OF
slavery, should be speedily arrested, and tha,
the question in controversy Do adjusted upon
some basis which shall tend 10 give pre,en
quiet, repress sectional animosilies, remove
as far as possible the causes OF future dis,
cord, and secure the uninterrupted enioymen
Of those benefits and advantages which the
Union was intended to confer, in equal mea,
sure, upon all its members:
And wheTeas,t is manifest, under present
circumstances. tina. no ad ustment can be eff,
ected Of The points OF difference unhappiIy
existing between the northern and southern
sections Of the Union, connected with the
subject OF slavery, which shall secure to
either section all that is commended for; and
that mutual concession, upon questions oil
mere policy, not involving the violation Of
any constitutional right or principle, must be
the basis OF every project, affording any as.
surance Of favorable acceptance.
And whereas, the joint resolution for an.
ne1ing Texas 10 the United States, approved
March LIST, 1916, contains the following
conditions and guarantees, that is 10 say:
NEW States OF convenient. size not ex>
ceedng faur in number, in addition 10 said
State Of Texas, and having sufficient popu
luton, may hereafter, by the consent OF said
State be formed out Of the territory thereof,
which shall be entitled to admission under
the provisions OF the Federal Constitution,
and such States as may be formed out OF
that portion oil said territory lying south oil
80 deg. 30 min. north latitude, commonly
known as the Missouri Compromise line,
shall be admitted into the Union with or
without slavery, as the people OF each State
asking admission may desire. And in such
State or States as shall be formed out Of said
territory north OF said Missouri COMPROMISE
line, slavery or involuntary servtuds (except
for crime) shall be prohibited"
Therefore
/. RESOLVED, Tha! The obligation to com.
ply with the condition and guarantee above
reciled in good faith be distinctly recognized.
and that in part compliance with the same,
as soon as the people Of Texas shall by on
act OF their Legislature signify their assent

KENTUCKY LEGIsLATURE-THE UH
Ios,-In the Kentucky Senate, Mr., An
derson's resolutions appointing dele
gates to the Nashville Convention, were
effectually killed, by vote Of &c to 9
One Wing voted for them, and two
Locofocos against them.
The Senate passed the following res.
olutons, by vote of 26 TO l2:
Resolved by the General Assembly
of the Commonwealth of Kentucky
/. That the union of the States is the
foundation of our prosperity as PEG,
pie, and of our glory as nation; tina,
Kentucky beholds, in its perpetuation,
the triumph of freedom in its only
home; and in its destruction, the 10y OF
lyranls throughout The world.
2. That in the opinion of Kentucky,
all the questions in relation to slavery
in the District of Columbia. and in the
the Territories acquired of Mexico.
may DO settled by the indulgence of a
wise and patriotic forbearance, without
endangering the integrity of the Union.
3. That in the exercise Of this for
bearance, Congress should abstain from
all legislation on the subject of slavery
in the District Of Columbia, and in the
Territories belonging TO the Union;
that to disturb it in the former, whilst it
continues TO exist in the States which
coded il 10 the General Government,
would violate the faith implied in the
cession; that it does not now exist in
the latter, and in all probability never
will, yet to prohibit il by law is 10 exer.
else an offensive and unnecessary au-
thority, and is justly and peculiarly OBJ.
noxious to the saveholding States Of
this Union.
4. That in the distribution between
the General Government and the States,
of the pnwers which should belong TO
each, those which were general and for.
eign were given to one, those which
were local and domestic were retained
by the other; that the question of
slavery belongs to the latter class, and
any altempt,by Congress TO deprive any
State or Territory of the Union, Of the
sole and exclusive power 10 retain or
abolish il, would be to dislrust its ca.
Pacity for selfgoyernment, 10 encroach
on lis undoubled right to control its in.
terror interests, and'to endanger the in.
tegrity of the Union; and that any bill
for the governments of Territories
containing the provision of the WiImot
Proviso, is in conflict with these great
principles and compromises of the Con.
siilulion.
5, That Kentucky. adopting them as
the unalterable guide of her own polit-
ical action, can do no better than to
commend TO every citizen of the Union
The farewell words Of the father of his
country: at is Of infinite moment that
you should properly estimate the i'm |
