The Spectator and squatter Sovereignty

Tue Spectator ana 6quatter sovereignty.
The Spectator OF the 81 inst. devo,es a
long article to the question Of "Squatter
Sovereignty" aud endesvors to convict
Nj. Buchanan of endorsing that doctrine.
In defining what constitutes Squatter Sow
ereignty. the Spectator takes Mr.. Calhoun
as authority. Very well. What were Mr..
Calhonn's views Of this subject' Mr.. CAL
houn commended that the inhabitants Of a
territory were not an organic political
body-that they were pupits. DERIVING
their power from Congress, and OILY ex-
ercising such powers as were conferred =
They were no, a people-a sovereign peo-
pie, with power inherent. and hence could
exercise no socereign power. He ais
crimiL sted between the Inhabitants" OF
"pupils" Of a territory and the people"
Of an lpchoate State. Try Mr.. Buchanan
by Mr.. Calhoun's rule, which. we assume
10 be the only true version Of :he whole
question, and where does be stand ? In
his letter Of acceptance, he says the Ne.
Lraska Bill "has simply declared that the
PEOPLE Of a territory. like those Of a
State, shall decide for themselves whether
slavery shall or shall not exist within their
limits" The "peopls"-esidently mean
ing. when throwing of the "pupilase" dis
tihc,'on aud becoming like the people "ol
a State" shall "decide for themselves. :"
&c. This Is the construction we have
given TO Mr.. Buehanan's letter. 1t is the
only construction its PHYSIOLOGY viii bear,
in canAor and Justice. There is no such a
monsirous doctrine as "Squattsr Sover.
eighty" Such sovereignty is in direct
conflict with the fundamental principle OF
our government-is destructive Of PoFu-
lar sovereignty, and violative Of the spirit,
intent aud letter Of the Constitution and
the articles Of confederation. Mr.. Buchan-
ans letter is simply a reiteration of the
great doctrine of Equal Rights for which
he contended in the admission OF ArkaD.
sas, with constitution favoring slavery.
and in the bill organizing Utah Tertlsory.
We deem it useless to pursue this subject
further. II is hurtful 10 the South to ac--
knowledge that there may be such . thing
as Squatter Sovereignty. There is no such
thing under the Constitution and IL it
does not come within the purview Of that
great instrument Of writing, il should be
SC outed and repudia,ed % dangerous to the
Interests ofihe country las iucendiAry and
sacrilegious.

the earth receded until the objects upon it be-
came greatly diminished in appearance. So
great was their distance that men, horses, and
other animate moving objects dwindled down to
mere moving specs; but even at that distance
| the hum Of cities and the lowing of cattle, and

had also elammy and corpse like feeling
