He denied that the Consultation ofihe United
States even gave Congress The right 10 orgon-
ize a territorial government. but that Congress
derived that right from the people, by ,heil
permitting Il out Of necessity, and that when
ever the necessity ceased (Which is when the
territory is organizedD then the power was
wrested from Congress and placed again where
it belonged-in The hands Of the people. He
disljked that party which always strenuously
opposed The acquiring Of territory BY the gov

claims, "h is all ours " He proved clearly
thai If Congress had powar 10 ~legislate slave

pre-existing power to do that thing.
We have neither time nor space to follow
the Doctor through his whole line OF Argument
suffice il to say that his speech throughout
was a master effort, and surely carried convic-
ton to The heart of every honest man who sat
within the reach Of his voice. Our only re-
great is, that every one Of our Republican
friends in Preble county were not present to
hear him. The above is but an imperfect
sketch Of the speech, though we believe we
have retained the sense and meaaing of the
gentleman's remarks, so far as we have at,
tempted to follow him. He spoke for more
than two hours, and was frequently interrupt
ed by shouts Of applause. Such a speech is
worth an hundred such addresses as were de-
livered to the public in front of The Court
House on Saturday afternoon.

In politics, which the people like TO see some

We know that II Lewis D. Campbell takes
the stump, he will make a bold show Of his

mere CANNON. The people know him, and
one half of his followers admire, above all
other traits in his character, his cunning and
low shrewdness. They are lickled with it.
They make il their aim in life 10 acquire the

this won't do in Montgomery county. II was
