Mr.. Lincoln said substantially in his
Springfield speech, that the two antago-
nistic principles of Freedom and Slavery
were irreconcilable, and that there would
in all probability be no peace until one or
the other should gain the complete and en-
tire asccndancy In his speech on Friday
evening last, Mr.. Douglas controverted
this doctrine, and i'll doing SO gave a fair
specimen, both Of his logic and his custo-
mary anfairness of argument. uniform
ity," said he, '.in local and domestic affairs
would be destructive of State rights, of
State sovereignty. Of personal liberty and
personal freedom. Uniformity is the pa
rent of despotism the world over, not only
in politics but in religion. Whenever that
doctrine is proclaimed, that all States must
be free or all must be slave, that all labor
must be white or all must be black, that all
persons in each State must have the same
privileges, or be governed by the same in
stitutions, you have destroyed the great
safe guard of the citizen. thrown around
him by the Conntitution." Now consider
what it is Mr.. Douglas is attempting tc
controvert. Mr. Lincoln had assumed as
his belief that the several States in which
slavery exists would in due time tax,
measures to abolish or in some way OIL
other get rid of the institution. Mr.
Douglas asserts that such action on thu
part of the slaveholding States would b'
fatal to the liberties of the country. /
would produce "unJoymity," and ''uni
formity is the parent of despotism." Thi
is the point of Mr. Douglass argument
if argument it may be called, and it is bu
reitcration, in other language, of the Cal
houn doctrine that ''Slavery is the corne
stone of free Institutions Let the slave
holding States, by virtue of their sover
eighty, abolish Slavery, and they at ono
lay the axe at the root OF Estate rights
State sovereignty, personal liberty an
personal freedom" produce UNIFORMLY,
and convert our federal government into
"despotism". So argues Mr.. Douglas
and if his course on the Slavery questio
for the last four years be any criterion {
his belief, it must be conceded that his al
gument possesses strong claims to sincerit.
Hereafter, when Mr.. Douglas devotes HI
abilities and influence to advancing tn
