tarily make such efforts as are practicable,
for the purpose Of sustaining and enabling
them successfully to prosecute their business
and at the same time demonstrating that
the fact that our Union, instesd of occupv.

our employers, holds itself ready at all times
to make oil honorable concessions for their
welfare. Therefore be it

A respectable audience assembled at Con-
cert Hall, on Wednesday Evening last, to
listen to the speech of our Representative
in Congress, Col. S. r. CURTIS. AS our
readers were mostly on the ground, it would
be an act of supcrerogation on our part, to
give even brief outline of his admirable
speech; and even were it important that we
should, we have not the time to do 3d.
Suffice it, that it was logical and conclu-
sivc throug hout-worthy Of the cause and
the speaker, and more than met the expec-
tations of the Republicans then and there
present. From the manner in which his
speech was received, and from the opinions
we have heard expressed since its delivery,
we are sure that Col. CURTIS, has place in
the affections of his constituents here, that
will manifest itself at the polls next Octo-
Der, in a manner not to be misunderstood.

While at Glenwood last Thursday, we had
the pleasure of beholding-what in these
latter days is not at all commsn-a real bona
tide advocate Of "Squatter Sovereignty'-
one who goes the "whole hsg''-tee,h and
toe-nail. We refer to tn. Hon. d. II.
SOLOMON. He upholds the doctrine, that
the people of Territory should have abso-
lutte control over the Governmental affairs
thereof-choose their own officers, from
Constable to Governor, and regulate their
domestic institutions in their own way."-
Whatever may be thought Of this doctrine,
all must agree that he is consistent advo-
cate of "squatter sovereipty'-following
out the doctrine to its legitimate conclusion.

victory gives them the power to wrest from
