is right here. The Black Rephblican partyhas
seen with bitter regret, that every honorable
effort (ifthey ever used any) made BY them TO
lobtain possessionrof the general government,

made by the territory, for their government,
and whatever rules and regulations that may
be made by the general governmentsior then
