copy Of the bill introduced by Mr.. John.
son Of L. S.Senate, for the organization
Of the above named territories. We
have not had time to read it entire; but,
Judging from what we have read in de.
tached sentences, i, seems 10 be the
principal design Of the bill TO domcsti
cate and secure 10 the Indian tribes
{ Cherokee, Muscosee or Creek, Semi.

permanent possession Of their lands, and
eventually VIII en- prepared,to odmi, them

1t is matter Of history, as asserted
by that noble Senator from Texas,
{ (Houston,) that nearly, If not quite all
the troubles with the Indian tribes, are
traceablc to the asgressions Of the
whites. Then, with the powerful States

bringing them continually within the in.
Auence ofdesigning men. unworthy the

most, il not sll Of those tribes, have

"that Congress has no constitutional
power to establish or 10 prohibit slavery
in the territories. Second, that the peo.
pie of the territories have right to dc.

without Congressional intervention"
ask, when did the Gr't Northern
man nnnounce that Congress had no
constitutional power to prohibit slavery
in the territores?. Ii was first made by
Southern man, an eminent statesman.
and will admit, fine man, in 1S47.
When the war was being wascd against
Mexico, il was charged that II was for
the purpose Of dismcmbefing Mexico.
and planting the cursed institution Of
slavery on tire territory we might &C.
qnire. The charge was denied and de.
nouncel by men Of oil parties at the
North. Ten States resolved that Con.
gross ought to prohibit slavery in the ter.
rtory SO acquired, BY applying TO it the
"Wilmot Proyiso." Who head OF the
unconslitutonality Of prohibitory laws
then? No one--nor till J. G. Calhoun
and Lewis Coss announced it, was it ev:
er heard Of. These two eminent states.
men, one the greatest democratic states.
man in the South, the other the great
democratic leader of the North, united
to bdng before the people the hitherto
unheard Of doctrine, that there was no
power in Congress to prohibit slavery in
the territories. (Read the letter Of Gen.
CasS to Mr.. Wilson, and commented
upon it.) ra'h.2
Mr.. Sherman continued that he would
admit that there was no express provs.
ions in the constitution to empower the
passage Of the ordinance Of 1851. But
it was the work Of impcrious necessity.
The Statesmen Of that day knew what
they were about; and though there was
no original express grant Of power in the
States to exclude slavery in the eIr;or.
les; yet the contemporarious construc.
ton Of the Statesmen who framed tho
Constitution was, that Congress could
