STEPHEN Al. DoUGLAs AND rHR ABoLrT4N MOB
We present to our readers to-day q brief synopsis
of Mr. Douglas speech in the face Of the Abolition
mob of Chicago, which attempted to intimidate him
by threats of personal violence and thus secure his
silence, and; when foied in this wicked purpose by
his undaunted courage, drowned his voice by their
insane clamor at the meeting of the citizens assem-.
bled to hear him., Dearly are the Northern people
paying for their countenance of abolition fanaticsm
The mebocratic spirit they raised to defraud the
South out of her just rights under the Constitution
is now beyond the control of authority, and tram.
Piles under foot, in their own persons the dearest
right of decentralization of speech. 1t is another
pregnant proof that no community throw off the
restraints of law with impunity. But this Chicago
mob is the more reprehensible, it iRterfered with
the right of constituency to hear their representa-
tive, and of Senator of the United States to speak
to his constituency. 1t is sort of moral treason
the liberties of the American people, as without
unrestricted intercourse between representative
and his constituents, the practical working of our
system of government cannot go on. This mob de-
serves the anathenas of the Republic, and have got
it from every quarter Of the United States. Their
own friends denounce them.> =
We do not fear the effect of this violence upon
the popularity of Mr.. Douglas The reaction is
endears him to the people of the South in whose
defenceh he has incurred this persecution ofsnners"
Right noby did he face the scoundrels, and when he
produced the letter written by the Secretary of the
organization, pledged at the sacrifice of his life to
prevent his being heard, and presented himself and
their murderous pledge, his conduct was morally
sublime.
Stephen A. Douglas has not been very great IA
vore of ours but his recent political has
deared him to much. His opposition to the River
and Harbor BILL and his brave 9cfence of the Ne
braska Bill enttle to him to the gratitude of the Re-
public but more especially to the confidence of the
South. -C0tuna6as (Ga) Times

~ We copy the following from the Chicago
Tribune of the 10th September

~ We copy the following from the Chicago
Tribune of the 10Th September:
the FUGITIvE SLAVE Turner. It seems that
the negro recently arrested in this city by the Messrs
Buchanan and Grant, the property of Captain
George Taylor of the steamer Belfast, running on
Mississippi river. About eighteen months ago the
negro went to Captain Taylor and persuaded him to
buy him and give him chance to pay for himself
The captain ailowed-him to hire out his time just
he pleased, and in fact never considered him his
slave, but more as a person to whom he had tent
money to buy himself. After the negro had paid
back part of the money, some of his friends perSu
AIDED him to run away. After he had been gone some
time, it is reported that he sent word to Capt lay
Tor from this city, stating that he did not mean to
cheat him out of his money, but would return short
ly and pay it. During the past year he sent several
such messages until length the captain began to
be uneasy about his money, and determined to have
the negro arrested. He obtained a requisltion from
the Governor of Missouri and had all the necessary
papers made out to his arrest These he plac
ed in the hands of George and John Buchanan of
St Louis who started at for this city in order
to have them served. On their arrival here the
proper course for them adopt would have been to
place the wrts, &C., in the hands of the U. S. Mar
shal, and then point out to him the negro IT. then,
he had failed to arrest him. the citizens had
cued him. the . nited States would have been bound
to indemnify his for his loss, in accordance
with the provisions of the Fugitive S lave Law. In
stead of pursuing this course, they, on seeing the
negro passing along the street. undertook to arrest
him themselves, which they clearly had no right to
do. This however, they were not aware of, but
thought they had right to take the negro wherever
they found him. Their mistake, unfortunately for
themselves, resulted in their own Imprisonment"
This, it seems, is in which the rig hit of the
master to the slave is confessed by abolition
organ. The Tribune is evidently enraged because
the agents of the master did not place the writs in
the hands of the Marshal for if that had been DONE
the moral certainty is that the alarm would have
been given, and the negro rescued by the citizens.
We do not say the agents acted in accordance with
the law, but they pursued the only course by which
the property was likely to be recovered. The Tri-
bune of subsequent date speaks of the agents the
Buchanans and Grant, "vle scoundrels," and
of their taking the slave of the greatest out
RACES" ever perpetrated in Chicago. That City has,
by the way, character to lose. After its treat
ment of Senator Douglas and Gov Willard, it stands
disgraced in the Judgment of all honorable men.
That it contains many worthy and loyal citizens we
do not doubt but such powerless for good where
the incendiary doctrines of such men the Editor
of the Tribune prevail
