This number commences the third volume Of the
''Fcliciana Democrat and we look back upon The

It's publication the Democratic party had been de-
fcated every where at the North defeated in the
State of Louisiana, and defeated in the Demo-
cratic parish Of East Fcliciana. But thanks to the
virtue and intelligence Of the people we have seen
Them turn back from error and dclusion, Gas we
were sure they would and the Democratic party,
and its principles are more deeply seated in their
affections than ut any former period. They see and
feel that it is to the Democratic party, and to That
party alone and few old line Wings, that we are
indebted for the salvation Of The Union, with all lis
counties blessings. and that we have at the helm Of
State Statesman Of great experience, who is every
way equal to the responsibilities of that exalted sta
tion man in whom the people can rcpose the most
entire confidence that the best interests, the glory
and honor Of the Nation will be preserved during
his administration.
The course Of the Felciana Democrat, shall be as

party and the Constitution OF the Union. 1t will

How happy they the happiest of their kind!

That binds their peace, but harmony itself,
Affirming all their passions into love.

Perfect esteem enlivened by desire

he was never able to say no. And to so great
IN extent was this weakness carried that it
had become notorious fact that the Colonel
would lend money to any one on the first ask ing,
rather to refuse it. But so often had his rood
nature been imposed upon that he established
arulc for his government, which lie was always
careful to explain to applicants for funds, and
usually did, $50 after the following styles "NVant

dsappoints me once never gets any more III oney

Col. Il. would lend money to any one on the
first asking, and if they were prompt in re pay

might be avoided, in reference to the admssio Of

within the clearly defined limits Of It's powers and
the new constitutions which may be presented for It's
action would take care to exclude all provisions en-

Every body must admit that The constitution of

the admission of new states, We take this plain and
simple ground. Congress being legislative body
whose powers are limited aud specified, the mere
creature of u confederation Of soveregntics cannot
rigltfuy invest with authority aud force am pro-
ris0n qihr mhaerc, no matter in what manner or form
may be brought before IT, II such provision of law
shall require of Congress the exercise of powers
clearly withheld from IL or in other words Con.
grc.s cannot indirectly, invest with authority AMI
force provision of organic law, which il has not
Tie power 10 give in its regular and direct course of
legislation
When, therefore, territory applies FOR admission
as a state with its constitution providing either for
establishing or prohibiting slavery within its limits
Congress has power TO give authority or force TO
either of such provisions for the soundest reason
that IL has no constitutional right TO legislatc upon
such questions and for the fur thcr that slave
~ exists rs IN inherent right wherever il my be
found within the jurisdiction OF the United States
Government
In order that new state may lie constitutionaliy
admitted into the Union, We hold that its constu
ton or organic law when presented, must be devoid
Of any or all provisions embracing questions over
which Congress has no power. II must not be for
gotten that The reserved rights or powers, Of the
states respectively constitute. oqaty with their del
cgut,d powers, orr Ierm aoDnaiav. That IL to say,
The reserved powers Of The states cgaaNv Ratiool
with the delegated ppwurs are held cqvai,y sdcred
from violation in their respective spheres well rs
from cncloachmcnis Of one, or more states upon
Others rights. Hence Congress has no more right
10 exercise a power reserved by the states, than
State has 70 exercise any powcr which it has dclcga
"a M Me federal government
