which had entered the lower part of his abdomen
and approached the groin, in the vicinity of
which it lodged. There were four barrels dis
charged, but only one ball took effect; one of
the three balls was found in his belt, and two
passed out through the different parts of his
clothing. His recovery is deemed doubtful

Brownson ON the slave question.

1.-THE mistake Of so many Of our own states
men on the subject grows GU, of the assumption
that the title to slave property rests on the same
foundation as does any other species of proper
ty. We deny, and all along have denied, this
assumption. The shareholders title to property
in his people, rests solely on municipal law, not
on natural right. We dispute not its validity
within the jurisdiction of the state cnacting that
law; but we deny it in toto out Of that jursdic-
ton. The right of property is, indeed, anterior
to civil society, and is natural and divine
right, but the right to property in human be-
ings IS only municipal right God gave the
earth to the children of men; he made man the
lord of the lower creation, and gave him do a.in.
ion over the beasts of the field, the fowls of the
air, and the fishes Of the sea, for they were cre-
ated for man. In them man has natural right
Of property, which civil society may indeed de-
fine, and regulate, but which it does not create,
and which it is bound TO recognize and protect.
But God as Pope Gregory VII. has declared,
never gave to man dominion over man, nor to
one man the right to lord it over another. He
had never created some men to be kings, and
others to be subjects, some to be masters and
others to be slaves; but he has created all men
equal, and therefore Alexander Ill asserts that
by nature all men are free. This is the teaching
Of the Catholic doctors, and OF all Christian ex-
Founders of the law of nature. /, flows natu.
rally and necessarily from the Christian doctrine
of the unity of the race. Man has naturally, by
the law of nature, no right of property in man,
and one man has the right to the services of
another only in consideration of benefits confer
red, or a debt voluntarily contracted. Here then
is a broad distinction between slave property
and other species of property. Man has ma.
tural right to property in his lands, his house,
his sheep and cattle, and the products of his own
skill and industry, and in the absence of munic.
pal prohibition, and in so far as movable, he
may carry them with him wherever he goes
But the case with slave property is different
Slaves being property only by virtue of munich
pal law, they cease to be property when trans
ported out of the jurisdiction Of the state which
creates him property in them" ~'

How THE UTAH DIFFICULTIES MAY BE SETTLED
There is one way in which the troubors af-
fsirs of Utah may be settled without violently
disturbing the doctrine of squatter sovereignty,
and in exact accordance with the wishes of the
sectional interests into whose hands the govern
ment has wholly fallen. Let dozen slaves, =
few OF them pretty muatto girls, run away and
take refuge among the Mormons. Mr.. Buch-
anan would send the whole army after them,
with Gen. Scott at its head. Brigham Young
would naturally refuse to surrender the tusiiires,
especially the feminine part Of them. He would
have special revelation upon the matter in
less than fifteen minutes A conflict would en-
sue. and while the army was employed in the
great constitutional duty Of getting back the
negroes, it would, by overturning the power of
Brigham Young, incidentally establish peace
and law and order in the territory
