Letter of the Nicaragua Minister

ASetCA va tnC NbCaeAH - y uAs NAaasANeOA' .
Among the the many other foolish char
ges preferred against the administration by
the Black Republicans is this, that the Pre-
sident is striving to involve the country in a
war, by y'the recognition OF PADRE VTIL, as
Mniste, from Nicaragua to this county
In another column will be found the letter OF
this new Minister to Sec'y MARCY, and we
hope all those who are disposed TO credit these
foolish fabrications Of the fusion fanatics
and, indeed, all others, will read il attentive,
ly. This letter SHOWS that the present Gov.
ernment is the Government de Jdcto and is
acquiesced in by the native citizens Of that
country. Such being the facts, the recog.
milton Of the Rivas Government could not b.
refused by the President by the rejection o
its minister upon any principle known TO ou
practice upon such questions. Would th'
Black Republicans have had The administra
tion abandon the uniform practice of ou
Government from fear that war would b,
the result of adhcring to it!

Judge NIcLcan's Opinion or sla-

We hsve in the N, Y. Tribune Of the 10th
inst a lengthy opinion of Judge Mclean,
one Of the prominent Black Republi cans,
spoken Of in connexion with the Presidency,
on the, power of Congress over slavery in
the Territories from which we clip the fo r
lowing: ,al s'"g .t'.H& '.e' a's
"Now, there is no specific power in the
Constitution which authorizes the organiza
ton of a Territorial Government. Such a
power was given in relation to the District
Of Columbia. and it was equally necessary
in regard to other Territories. But, II this
power be implied from the specific power
given toregulate the disposition of the pub
lie lands, it must, under the above rule, be
limited to means suitable to the end in view.
II Congress go beyond this in this organizl-
tion Of a Territorial Government, they act
without limitation, and may establish mon
archy, Admit thatthey may organize gov.
eminent which shall protect the lands pur-
| chased and provide for the administration OF
| Justice among the settlers it does by no
means follow that they may esta5l:sh Sla-
very. This is relation which must be
created by the local sovereignty. 1t is do
mestic relation over which the Federal Gov
eminent can exercise no control. And
above alt, thu institution of Slavery is no
within any implication which can be drawn
from the power to regulate and dispose Of tht
public lands or other property of The United
States. As before remarked, Slaves arr
not treated in the Constitution as property
They are made property by the local law"
Now the Democratic policy, as embodiet
in the Compromise measures of 1850, an
contained in the Kansas Nebraska Bill 70
which Pierce, Douglas and the Democracy
generally, have been 30 sparingy abused
goes no farther. ... ...'. ..
1t simply alli:ms that Congress has n
power to legislate slavery into, OF out Of
I Territory, and leaves the people. perfect
free to act OF the matter for themselves
