w SereraL-days ago an unscru!alous and
tl.ssolute woman arrived in this-city having in
hcr charge an unsophisticated young girl which
she had picked up in rural town in Pennsyl-
vania, They first stopped at on; of the prlnci-
pal hotels and afterwards removed to tavern
on Market street. The wom4l it appears had
made several mean attcu,ptS to corrupt the
mind OF her charge by offers of money and
other inducements, but was always unsuccessful.
On Friday CIV .aing last sh, threatened the girl
with desertion c she dI not admit crafty old
libertinc to her p"ivtts presence, and notwith
standing this proposition was Indignantly spurn-
ed, the man attempted at a late hour to execute
the piece of villany designed by the heartleSs
woman. The girl cried for assistance and al
armed the house, when both the man and wo-.
man made precipitate exit. The intended VIC
tim revealed the cause of her outcry and dveit
upon her wrongs with so much feeling that her
story was accredited, and yesterday morning the
designing woman was driven from the house. The
girl gave her name as Emma Hager, and says
she was induced to leave her home by the delu-
sion that she was to be the adopted daughter Of
the womans brother, whom the latter represent
ed as living at Columbus Ohio. childless aud in
nGluence sufficient sum of money was soon
collected to defray the girls expences back to
her rural home. Miss Hager says she left home
with the knowledge and consent of her widow
ed mother, who was also imposed upon by the
willy woman, the latter having resided several
months in the town and carried on the millinery
business under the name of Susan Morton.

These poor devils of Territories are to

These poor devils of Territories are to be
pitied. Filled up as general rule by en-
ergetic and intelligent classes Of citizens,
they are made the Botany Bay OF broken
down, used-up politicians. The general dis
repute into which the very name Of Territory
has fallen, comes not hall so much from the
inferior and unstable character Of its popu-
latioD, as from the shakey and damaged cha
racter of its imported officials. We have
had some sad experiences of that kind IN
Minnesota. The latest and most unfortu-
nate was with Col. SAN. MEDARY, who it is
stated, has accepted the Governorship OF
Kansas. lie came up here, not to officiate
as Executive, but on tour of speculation.
Failing to crafty his expectations in the
pecuniary line, he left when the Territory
was in state Of anarchy, and at moment
when firm, good man might have been Of
service to the party and the people, and
posted to Washington for some other and
more lucrative position. lie was furnished
with the Columbus post Office, as a tempo
rary stopping place, until something better
should turn up. This has been found in
Kansas, and thither he has gone. 1t was
rumored while since that he was about to
resign bis Columbus postmastership, and
remove permanently to this State. The
rumor was false. lie has gone to Kansas.
We congratulate Minnesota. We commits.
serate Kansas.

The annual conference OF the NJ. f..
Church, Of Wisconsin. at their late session.
resolved among other things in favor Of
negro suffrage. We have not heard what
position the Conference assumed on the
tariff question, internal improvements,
&c. Probably before the Conference as
sumed the position it has, on negro suffrage,
it would have been consistent to have ad-
mitted negroes TO respectable seats within
the churches, and permitted them to receive
the communion with their white brethren.
Asserting political equality, and denying
the negroes equality within the churches, is
exactly the description OF stupid,ies and
blunders our dear friends. the political
priests delight in.

chester Free Press, and should take good
care Of him. He is not only an astute poll
tician, but claims the attribute Of the Deity,
in judging Of the secret motives and pur.
poses which animate the minds OF his fell
low men. For instance, in speaking Of
Justice FLAsDgAus dissenting opinion, in
the mandamus case, the Free Press says:
Justice Plsndrau, desiring to manufacture
capital for himself. dlssents from his associates,
not because be believes their view OF the case
incorrect, but because he thinks il may possibly
prove unpopular An excellent Judge
worthy Judge MAY he receive his deserts.
The probability is, that the writer OF the
above never saw Judge FLAxDRAU, never
exchanged words with him, and never heard
him spoken Of other than az an honest ard
able man--yet TO crafty partlzan bitter
ness, he accuses the Judge Of perjury aud
dishonesty, without advancing jot Of proof
to give p!ausibility to the vileness Of his
ISLANDERS Such atrocious and selfevident
libcls disgrace the press altering them, and
justly destroy its influence with the people.
Nor is this the only evil. The continued
attacks Of the Republican press upon the
judiciary, are calculated TO weaken the con-
fdence Of the people in the constitutional
tribunals, and Ultimately to substitute in
their stead. the law of the mob, under the
administration of Judge Lynch.

In his speech in the United States Sen.
ate, in 1850, on the Compromise Measures,
Senator SEWARD, the great Republican
leader, said 4:
at is written in the Consultation OF the Unit.
ed States, that five slaves shall count equal to
three freemen, as u basis Of representation
and il Is written also, in violation 10 Divine
law, that we shall surrender the fugitive slave.

as familiar as household words. There

hnguishtd. You will soon bring the parties Of
the country into an EFFECTIVE AGGRESSION UP.

1t will be seen that it is Stewards doc
trne that slavery can and must be abolish
ed, and that you and |, meaning Congress
men at Washington, where the speech was
delivered, must do it," He also claims
that the United States Constitution must be
set aside when il is in violation Of the Divine
law, as interpreted by him. Comment up
on such extraordinary declarations is useless
except TO remark that from present indica-
tons he who makes them will be the Repub

The settlers in Dakota Territory are again
moving in the matter Of the organization of
the Territory. 10 October last, a procla-
nation was issued, by the officers of a Con
vention held in the Territory, in accordance
with the instructions OF the meeting, order
ing an Election to be held in the various
counties, on the 18th OF October, for Dele.
gate to Washington, to urge upon Congress
the necessity OF the organization Of Dako-
Ia This proclamation is as follows
PROCLAMATION.
Whereas, Congress did on the third day Of
June, A. ID. 1865, by Statute, discontinue the
extension Of the Territorial laws over that por.
ton of Territory heretofore included within the
limits OF Minnesota, and subsequently cut of
by the admission Of Minnesota into the Union
thereby leaving u large number Of citizens
without any law to protect them in the pursuit
of their legitimate avocations. Therefore, We.
the citizens Of the several counties of the said
unorganined Territory, in convention assem-
bled, do unanimously recommend the holding
Of an election for a Delegate to Congress, to
urge our immediate organization, and 90 repre-
sent Us upon the floor Of the House of Repre-.
senia.iyes in Congress, until officers are APP.
pointed and proclamation issued for new
election under such organization.
The election under this proclamation will be
held on the eighteenth day of October, and the
returns to be anvassed and certiicates issued
by three judges in each county, under oath ad
mnstered to each other, and testified to by two
clerks in each county so voting.
II. =. DONALDSON, President.
R Rar'.sn i haSSss, Vice Presidents.
EDWARD MARION, Secretary.
In accordance with this proclamation,
elections were held on the 18th ut,, at st.
Joseph and Pembina, in Pembnv county,
Lake Wanna, on the Coteau du Prairie, and
Big Stone Lake. At the former precincts,
434 votes were cast-all Of which were for
w. W. kISGsBuRy, Esq, for Delegate to
Washington. From the two latter pre-
cincts we have not yet received the vote.
There is good prospect that Dakota will
be organized this winter. The speedy or.
ganizatiou of the Territory will be Of i'm.
mense benefit TO Minnesota.

A Congregational Slave Code for the
Territories.

The Republican papers Of this city, and
throughout the State, seem exceedingly anx.
ious that the Democracy should interpolate
in the creed Of the party clause requiring
Congress to frame code for the protection
and government Of slavery in the Territories
Of the United States. We presume they
are honest in entertaining such desire, and
we don't blame them for expressing it. But
we hardly think they can be accommodated.
The Democracy Of the country are already
pledged to course Of action on the question
Of slavery, with which as party, we believe
they are entirely satisfied, and to which
they will rigidly and consistently adhere.
Their principles are embodied in the Gin
cinnati platform, and these, unfortunately
for the wishes Of the Blacks, are in direct
antagonism to the doctrines which they wish
US to adopt. They deny the authority Of
Congress to legislate slavery into the Terri.
tories or 20 exclude it therefrom; but as.
sert the right Of the people Of such commu.
mites to be left perfectly free to regulate
their own domestic affairs in their own way,
subject only to the constitution of the Uni.
ted States ln other words, their doctrine
is " Congressional intervention in Ter
ritorial affairs"
This being the case, our Republican
friends will see that the thought to which
their wish is father, is very unreasonable
and mmodcSt one. 1t is asking great
party to desert its solemnly enunciated
principles, to establish which it has suffered
great sacrifices, and by virtue of which it
has achieved splendid victories, and to adopt
in their stead, the doctrines of their adver-
saries, which have been repudiated by the
country, and which are destructive TO the
welfare and the harmony Of the Union. We
repeat our belief that they will not be &C
commodated. The joke would be altogeth.
er too serious and too shameful, to find the
Democracy planting itself upon the section.
al, unconstitutional, Congressional interven.
ton platform which was adopted by the
Black Republicans at Philadelphia, and
upon which zone Of the Fremonts," was
cleaned out in the fall Of 1856. 1t can't be
done.
Get the Democracy once committed to
congressional code for the protection Of slave
property in Territories, and some Buckeye
would come along and insist upon code
for the protection of his swine-some Sucker
like one for his beevcs-some kentuckian
one for his jackasses-and some Black Re
publican Yankee special one for his
"wooden nutmegs,' and other tricks"
Our Republican friends will see that the
thing would presently become alarmingly
mul,itudinous. A code would have to be
framed for every description of property
known to the law-and especially all such
varieties az were possessed of legs to run, or
wings to fly, away from the immediate con.
troll of their proprietor. This kind of bust
ness does not belong to the Democratic idea
of the duties or functions Of Congress and
we therefore doubt il any principle which
would impose it upon our national Legisla-
ture, will be adopted by the Democracy
At least, not just at present.

Gov. HAMMOND, of South Carolina, in
his recent speech, said:
The principle involved in this whole Kansas
affair-if an affair so rotten, from beginning to
end, can have principle at al--was this:-
Would Congress admit a Slave Ssate into the
Uniont The Senate said, yes. The House, by
adopting the Crlttendon substitute, said yes. II
we are assured that a majority Of the people Of
the State are in favor Of il. For this substitute
all the opposition voted in both houses, SO that
every member Of Congress OF all parties, first
and last, committed themselves to the principle
and policy that a State should be admitted in.
TO the Union with or without slavery, accord
ing to the will OF its own people.
Gov. HAMMOND asserts simply what is
historically true. In voting for the Mont
gomery- Crittenden bill, the Republicans
voted to consecrate to slavery o State
:" consecrated to freedom by the Missouri
restriction, provided the people were as
foolish, as in the case Of Missouri, Arkansas,
and Kentucky, to desire the peculiar insti-
tu}ion. This is the Democratic doctrine.
If the people Of State desire slavery in
their midst, let them have it IL they pro-
hibit the institution, their right to do 40 is
equally clear and unquestiouable.
