GOV. TAZEWELL.

The letter Of Gov. Tazewell, which we pub
lished yesterday, displays, in remarkable man
ner, the peculiarities of that distinguished mans
mind. He was always known as most subtle
refiner, and this interesting production of his old
age will not detract from that reputation. He
opposes all compromises of constitutional princi-
pies, because Congress isincompetent to enlarge
the grants of power under which alone it is au-
thorised to act. As an example of such Com
PROMISE he cites the Missouri Compromise, in
which the South compounded for right asserted
with regard to all the Territories, by accepting
permission to exercise that right in portion of
them. Gov. Tazewel therefore, to be consistent
with his principles, must oppose the extension of
the Missouri line to the Pacific. That would be
yielding the right claim in respect toall the ac-
qured territory, in order to secure the enjoyment
of that right in part of the territory. The Com
promise bill is not open to this objection. It pro-
poses to do nothing which the South denies the
power of Congress to do 1t admits California.
Congress has express power to admit new States
1t organizes Territorial governments in the Terri
tories without any restriction of slavery; which is
all that the South ever demanded. 1t makes
proposition to Texas for a change of her bounda-
ny; to which the question of constitutional pow
er has not been raised The objection, therefore,
is not pertinent that Congress has right to COM
promise constitutional principles.
But, by train of general reasoning, Governor
Tazewel concludes that compromises, within the
purview of the functions of Congress, are scarce
! ly less Objectionable than compromises of funda-
mental rights. He argues that such compromises
can only be Legislative expedents to postpone a
troublesome subject until the majority acquire
power enough to enforce some other and to them
better bargain. What then? If we are to hold
this general doctrine, that Congress must not
adopt either such measures a. we deny that it
has power to adopt, or such measures as we admit
that it has power to adopt what's to be done? Gov
Tazewelfs reasoning seems to give the answer,
that our best course is to recall our Senators and
Representatives from Congress, and quietly
await the final dissolution. which, he says, will
come upon us in the next generation. We great
ly admire the ingenuity of Gov. Tazewels ratio
cinaton, and respect the acknowledged worth of
his character, but we must be permitted to say
that we indulge more hopeful views than he
does of the future, and cannot admit his abstrac-
tional theory, that Congress is incompetent to
dispose of the slavery question by measureswhch
ought TO satisfy the South.
