Gully recognising property IN slaves but pro-

III these territories as in the States. That
ho Constitution of the United States is ex-
pr7ssly extended over these territories by act

including Col. JEFF DAVIS, and Messrs Nc
WILLIE and THOMPSON voted for the Utah
Lill-only II Southern men voted against it,
That the New Mexico bill is precisely the
