solemn pledge he had given, that during his Of

Without one WORT from the pablie press, without
being demanded by 4 siHzle petition, the Nebras-
ka-hansas bill had been passed in opposition to all
precedent, and compact annGIIed Of which sla-
very had reapsd the sole benefits ior . third Of

the name Of popular rights, under the deIusioa Of
"squatter Sovereignty; the people had been be-
trayed by kiss. It was left to the few strug-
ghrg men who might first chance to come into
the territory. to decide whether those vast fields
should be forever polluted with the leprous dis
ease Of slavery, or bs filed with the healthful,
glowing life Of Freedom.
