OateChism,

g. DO YOU bel'eve in popular sovUreigu-
ty?
Aus-I do.
O. What is POPULAR Sovereignty?
Ans Its true definition is found in the
Kansas Nebraska act as follows. "And
the true intent and meaning Of this act,
is not to legislate slavery into any State
or Territory, or to exclude il thervfrom,
but TO leave the people perfectly free to
form and regulate their domestic institu-
tions in their own way"
Q. Do you believe in the bred Scott
decision?
Ans--I do.
O. What is the effect Of the Dred Scott
decision?
Ans--It denies the right of both Con-
gross and she people Of the Territory TO
prohibit slavery in such territory.
Q. Are popular sovereignty and the
Dred Scott decision consistent with each
other?
Ans--They are. See proceedings of
the Buchanan convention.

Laziness is a bad disease, and like many
other kinds, is often self-imposed. In the
case Of many individuals, it is an inherit
ed malady, and consequently hard to cast
from the system. But it is oftenor the
case that this disgusting temper is brought
on persons by their own deliberate selfish
ness-By vastly discreditable DISPOSE

dent to living q decent life. Laziuess Of
this Kind is one Of the cardinal sins, and
should object the obnoxious offender to
the discipline of the tread-mill. More
particularly is laziuess offensive in the
young and healthy. To learn to work,
and work oheerfully, is the central lesson
of life. Begin to learn il early--eschew
lasiness as the most disgusting Of all
faults, and one that surely ends in hope
less misery; for depend upon it, none can

Hammond on squatter Sovereignty

Senator HAMMOND, in a speech made at
public dinner, in his own State, on the
2Sl ut., took occasion to express himself
very freely in regard to the sham Pop
ular Sovereignty" doctrine, as embodied
in the Nebraska Kanzas bill. Among
other things, the Senator said:
"When he went to the Federal Con-
gress, six months ago, he found the ad-
mission of Kanzas, under the Lecompton
Constitution, the all-absorbing and eX
citing subject before the representatives,
Of tie people and the Government. To
him the whole theory & scheme Of Squat

would never unite. The President plead

but it was evident that it was a subject
fraught with trouble He (Mr. H. was
ever opposed to this Kanzas Nebraska bill

it, it was that it allowed the people, free
