Some of the old Hartford convenonss still alive and
rampant Their spirit pervaded the New Haven convention

the former the Hon. John NJ Niles declared the passage
the Nebraska bill base outrage, and the principle involved
in still base. 'That is, said he, tha slavery is in
the constitution, put there, and power of
root it out.
Does the Hon. j. NJ n. doubt the obvious fact that slavery

and who framed it? If the supporters of the bill
sanction base principle those old and sages
less guilty How much better would Mr.. N. have
made that sacred instrument If its framing had been left to
his cool wisdom and warm patriotism ?
''What is to be done p he asks His answer is,

Gov Dutton said the New Haven convention that he
adored the constitution and would abide by it, but at the
time he very consistent to pledge himself in
favor of repeal He adores the constitution pousy he
would restore the old compromise law of 1920 which
passed in violation of the constitution Should Salem witch
