9th. The unqualified recognition and main
teuance of the reserved rights of the several
States, and the cultivation Of harmony and
fraternal good will, between the citizens of the
several States, and TO this end, non-interfer-
ence 10y Congress with question apperlaining
solely to The indvidu States, and non-inter-
vention 10y each State with the affairs of any
other State.
9TH. The recognition of the right of the ma
tive born citizens ofthe United States, perIna-
nently residing in any territory thereof to
frame their constitution and laws, and 10 regu-
late their domestic and social affairs in their
own mode, subject only to the provisions of
the Federal Constitution, with the right of ad
mission into the Union whenever they have
the requisite population for one Representa-
tive in Congress. Pr0Uided dIi0dys, that none
but those who are citizens of the United
States, under the constitution andlaws thereof,
and who have fixed residence in any such ter
ritory, ought TO participate in the formation of
a constitution, orin the enactment of laws for
said territory or State.
The whole country should be gratiied to find
ia this a clear, distinct and unequivOcal recog-
milton Of the great principle which for nearly
two years has been the main and almost ex
elusive matter of discussion between the North
and the South. the great principle that the
native born aud naturazed citizens of tie
United States, residing permanently in any
Territory, have a right TO frame their consll-
tuition and laws and to regulate their Gomes
tic and social affairs in their own mode, sue
iect only to the requirements of the Federal
Constitution, and that they have a right of
admission into the Union, whenever their
numbers are sufficient, with just such a con
stitution As they may have chosen to frame.
No form of words could be devised repudiat-
ing more clearly the doctrines OF. the Wilmot
Proviso or setting forth more distinctly the
right of the people of every Territory, on com
ing into the Union to come with or without
slavery, as they themselves may decide. The

IEDEPESDE Oh, Mo-, Feb %.
The Santa Fe mail of December, under
charge Of Mr.. Brownley, reached here on
yesterday from the Valley. The party, six in
number, came in.on pack-raules, having met
with much detention from snow, the average
depth Of which was from two to three feet,
except in the mountains, where the drifts were
in places from ten to fifteen feet.
In consequence of,he prevaili ng winds from
the northwest, ibe party did not suffer so
much coming this direction as they would,
bad their travel been 10 a westerly direction
On the first of January the parties reached
Fort Laramie, and then about the close of the
month Fort Kearney. From Laramie Mr.
John Scott accompanied them to the States
lie lost, on the way in, two mules and lis
horse, and suffered much from the effect OF the
snow upon his eyes.
At each of the posts lille is doing other
than protecting the property eff he government.
It was so cold that the soldiers upon guard
were frosted, although upon duty bat halt an
hour at a time.
From present Indications the spring freshets
will be very different to what they have been
in past years.
The news from Salt Lake is not of much
interest, and you have later dates BY the
California route.
