The argument submitted by us few days ago in the
editorial columns Of the Union, establishing as
ceive most ncontroverby the fact that the refusal of
Congress 10 attach the Wilmot Poviso TO the territorial
organization Of New Mexico and Utah leaves those

the people when they come 10 form State constitution

aboliiioniss yet in the chrats state. Among Others
the New York Evening Post becomes quite indignant
al our "audacty," and says that, according to our
reasoning, to allow the Territories 10 remain as they
are is to consent to the extension Of slavery" This,
we suppose, is nothing new. When Congress re-
jected the Wilmot Proviso--the great ee-sol pan

that the question of the right Of owners of slaves
