Liberty under 'squatter Sovereignty"

Liberty under 'Squatter Sovereignty"
From what has transpired since the
StringfeIIow mobs took possession of the
polls in Kansas, all mustagree that Amer
lean freedom of speech and of the press
has been sing,llarly exemplified there,
and particularly by the Legislature of
that Territory, which has just enacted 3
law, containing, among other provisions,
the following -
sEc. 19. Ifany free persons, By speak
ing or by writing, assert or maintains that
persons have not the right to hold slaves
in the Territory, or shall introduce into
Kansas, print. publish, write. circulate,
or cause to be introduced into the Terri
tory, written, printed, published, or cir
cr.lated in this Territory, any book, pa
per, magazine, pamphlet. orcircular, con-
tainins any denial of the right of persons
to hold slaves in this Territory. such per-
son shall be deemed guilty of felony, and
punished by imprisonment at hard labor
for term not less than two years.
These Kansas sovereigns even if they
believe slavery to be right, are evidently
disbelieyers in Jeferson's maxim. that
error of opinion may safely be tolerated
where reason is left free to combat it. IL
is not SO much, however, the opinions
they aim al, as the persons who hold them,
and who will cast votes at the elections.
The above section is buta single one TAX
EN- from budget Of the most extraordi-
nary enactments ever peIpetrated in this
Republic. Il would require an army OF
ten thousand men to enforce any one of
the number in Kansas, and the members
of the Legislature were aware Of the
fact before they enacted theai. Their
purpose was to breed sH open war. in
. which nlobs from Missouri might have
an excuse for burning towns and lynch
ing settlers from the Norlh.-Loaeastsr.

Righ.s of Married women.

IL the present is a period of extrava-
giant practices and still more extravasant
theories respecting the sphere and duties
of woman, in which she is urged TO bar
ter away her silent and bumanizing in
fiuenees in the domestic circle for the
contest of the field, and the forum, it is
also one in which sound and salutary in-
noyations upon ancient law have been
extensively made in her favor,
The old rule of the English law, hy
which the existence of the wife was
merged into that of her husband, and
her POWER of holding Or acquiring prop
erty during marriage was absolutely sus-
pended, has found many and able advo-
Gates, from Mansfield to Marshall, on the
grounds of its promotion of harmony
and peace in welded life. Noiwitli-
standing these considerations, the oppos-
ing system which prevails on the Cont
nent and in Louisiana, and recognises a
woman as entitled to some interest in hel
property, and to legal existence as vel
after as before marriage, is rapidly rising
into favor throughout The entire Uui:cd
States. Within the last ten years, the
popular feeling on the subject has beer
clearly manifest in variety of acts o
the various State Legislatures. A shor
time since an act passed the Legislature
of Wisconsin, which empowers a mar
ried woman, In case of the habitua
drunkenness or desertion of her husband
to carry on business in her own name

similar act in q. T., which shoult
constitute a married woman III certaii
cases, sole trader. Its proposal seems
however, 10 have been made little u
advance of public opinion, and il failee
TO pass.
L. i; interesting to notice the rapis
manner in which innovations on the oil
law bearing upon this subject have takei
place, and also to observe In general nov

originates in one State, and commend
itself to the appreciation Of the public

1640. Connecticut, and in 1856, Ala
bama, gave an approving voice to the
acts of their sister States, by following.
and even going beyond the example
which had been set them.
There can be no doubt of the inius-
tiee of the old law, in many of its fea-
lures, respecting the rights of married
women. 1t had been adopted under
different institutions, and at period of
less perfect civilization than that in :
which our lot is cast. And no better
argument need be adduced to demon
stiate the propriety of change, than
the fact that its practical hardship and
injustice have led the Legislatures of SO
many great States. after mature delibe-
ration, to abolish it, and to substitute
those more just, and luminous principles
which constitute portion of the glory
of the civil law.
Whipping ones wife used to be one of
the legal rights of an Englishman, and
derivatiyely from his country, of an
American. A spirit of refinement and
delicacy, however, has rendered the ex-
erciSe of so odious right quite obsolete
and intolcrable. A sense of Justice viii.
no doubt, in the course of few years,
secure to married women their separate
property in every State in the Union.
A marriage which is founded in real
affection and esteem, we submit, with
due Difference to the opposing opinion,
will never result unhappily from the
mere relation of the control of her own
property by the wife. 1t is only in
those cases where mercenary motives
mingle their base alloy with affection,
that the shipwreck of happiness results
from this cause. And, by reserving to
woman the control of their property at
all tip'es, the temptations to mercenary
matches are lessened. And those un-
fortunate cases where they may be con-
tracted, the weak woman will have left
in her hands home, by means of
which she can keep the man who has
deceived her perpetually on his good be-
haviour-N T. Times

We do not know whether there is any
truth in the above remark of the Wash

aid. But the fact that it comes from a
Washington letter writer is the only rea-
son for suspecting its verify. Of all men
in the world, Senator Douglas has reason
to feel indignant against the Kansas out

at defiance the principle, for which he
contended, of allowing the actual resi-
dents of Kansas to form her domestic in

country and imposed on it the rule OF
foreigners, and enslaved the inhabitants.
