The Real Northern Sentiment in regard to
Slavery

Rev. Dr. Breckenridge, of Kentucky. has writ
ten very able letter in defesce of the South from
the Northern encroachnents upon her rights
The letter is reproduced in some of the Eastern
papeEs,-among them the New York Tines which
accompanies it with an able and candid co,rmer-
tary from which take the following extract
and TO which we ask the attention of the South,
because we believe its location oftbe intentions
OF the Northern people is correct
"a VIII not escape notice that the Doctor makes
sundry assumptions in regard to the purpose OF the
Free States which would rot be conceded and
without which his argument loses much of its
force We 30 not believe that there is any gen.
eral disposition on the part of the people of the
North, to interfere with Slavery as it exists in the
Southern States Any such interference would
undoubtedly prOvoke,-and wonld proba bly, iusti-
fy,-such armed resistance as DR.. B. atirms
the South would offer. But the exclusion of
Slavery from the Territories-fIc crcIsssi9sl Of q
near SiCfe from tie Union GcoOusit Of SiGrerg-
the modification or repeal # the Fugitive Slave
law or the abolition Of S'aUsry from tie District of
Columbia would NOT warrant any such resistance"
We have never thought that the Intelligent and
Just Oi the Northern people contemplated any on
siaught upon the institution OF slavery as it exists
and as it is recognized in the Southern States by
both law and constitution We have not thought
they were prepared for a foray upon the rights of
the South within the States But We have not
disguised the fact either from ourselves from
made Up resistance 70 the extension of slave
Ty--and hence the formation of societies at the
North TO insure the settlement OF the territories of
Kansas and Nebraska with the opponents ofslave-
~ II they can DO this, and thus secure the inhi-
btion OF the Institution through the means of State
Laws, the dangerous and exaSpeFating issue of re-
lecting the application of a slave State for ad-
mission into the Union will be escaped. But if
slavery Is not excluded from the territories by
the people thereof. the North Will oppose the ad-
mission into the UIon Of State formed from
such territory This Is the issue presented to the
country by the cid parties; and the American par
ty, in opinion. IS the only hope Of the South in
the present Crisis This party Is pledged to the
support OF lhe Constitution, TO the MAIN
tenance of the constitutional rights OF the South
pledged TO the Union; and II it can acquire a COM
maading ascendancy in the North, we shall avoid
the issue which other parties would force upon
the co2ntTy--the issue of an exclusion Of a new
State from the Union on account of slaveTy,7 the
repeal of the fugitive slave law, and the abolition
OF slavery in the District of Columbia This is
the policy unjust, wicked, iniquitous. and to be
resisted by every Southern man. This is the plat
form OF the old fosiesi Can they get majority
of the Northern people to stand upon ita

overcome, and the treaty with the United States
Is the first that has ever received the signature Of

have been secured By any other ration that has

The japanese officials made manY inquiries al

tive he took out had been put up in Yedo, and the
japanese could now manage them very well the
locomotive making It's trips every day. They
had also the life boat in the water with sneciaI

however, was rather too dific;Iit for them and
they had not succeeded to get it TO work nrorer
ly During the visit of Com. Perry's squadron
they took measurements of the storeship South
Gnlpt0n, and they had vessel of the same model
and dimensions nearly ready for launching. The
old japanese law restricting the size and model of
their Junks has recently been abrogated and the
Government Is now ambitious to possess a SQUAD
ron similar TO ours From this fact it will be seen
how rapid is the growth of new ideas in .his Sc
ciuded nation. and nat vast changes must eces-
sariiy result from their further intercourse with
Americans.
The only American article they objected to he
introduction OF was religion. They preferred
their own, and the Commissioners returned TO
Capt Adams a bundle Of religious books and
tracts, which one of the American chaplains had
distributed among the people. requesting him TO
take them back to America They demonstrated

the evening of the 23d:
Governor Reader has taken upon himself the
responsibility OF vetoins all the bills that have
Yet been presented 10 him. He states in his mes
sage that there is nothing Objectionable in the
bills themselves but that he docs not and viii. not
consider the Legislature as being in legal session.
He bases this opinion upon the fact that the Leg
IslatuTe has removed FROM Pawnee without au-
thoTity, ard IN cOntTaveHtion OF the provisions of
the Kansas and Nebraska bill Furthermore he
Informs the Assembly m very peTemptory tone
that II 1t persists in its removal the executive and
the Legislature must act Independently of each
other The Legislature took the vetoed bills un-
der consideration and passed them over again
through both branches by large maiorities Great
excitement prevails in consequence OF this act of
tue Governcr-the Legislature is determined 10
insist upon It's course. and the Governor is equal
~ stubborn in hiss refusal to recognize the laws
they may pass. What the result will be is at
present beyond conjecture
