tyized minds. We believe cha. IN ttls
instance agaip the contingencies OF the
.sast are realities of the present; that
Washington and Jefferson abhorred the
then regarded e necessary evil" Of slavery,
as much as any republican of the present
dsy can; but that its evils and conse-
quences were not then SO apparent, nor
the necessity of an agitation of its moral
and political inconsistencies as means of
its eradication, as a national curse, so ap-
parent else their zeal to that effect would
no doubt have been proportionateIy ap-
parent. Therefore, we are free to declare
that the republicans of to-day-who ad
vocate the extension of slavery into
the territories, the abolition of interstate
slaye-traffic and the abolition of slavery
in this District of Columbia or other ma
tional territory under the immediate con-
troll of Congress,-are only working to
carry out the great and good principles of
Washington and Jefferson, and are the
heirs and successors In the prinei pies of
those great patriots. The sense of the
American people then endorsed those
principles in spite of the efforts Of Ham
ilton and others and but recently, after
three-quarters of century of experience
with them, the American people have
again endorsed them, in spite of govern
mental patronage and subserviency.
8. And in regard to our third point of
observation we would ask, Is i; not posi-
HE that Thomas Jefferson foresaw the
present degradation of our government
the administration Of James Buchanan !?
Can it be possible that he foresaw the
contingency that the " natural aristocrats"
would reign over free people III the
seventh or eighth decade of their govern
ment? Did he conceive that the consti-
tutional monarchists would be maginifed
by I" democratic progression into absolute
monarohsts ? Did his great mind in that
thought foreshadow now almost realized
fear that subserviency and doughfaceism
would preponderate in the national ooun-
ell and that the national ernine would
be suhUrned to monarchiSm Verify, We
are inclined to think that Washington S
first contradistinct successor now occupies
the White House-that for the first time
in the annals of our government its true
friends may we'll feel anxious for the sta
bility Of a republican form of government :;
and that " zeal and talents on the repuh-
lican side of our national Legislature are
now more than ever requisite TO the pres
ervation of our constitution and good GOV,
ernmcnt. And hence, VIC argue that
when men of talent and fTmnesS Of prn-
eiple are once elected to Congress by re
publicans, they should be continued there
50 long as they are capable and willing
to stand BY their constituents in principle
and action. The changing OF representa-
tives in Congress every term, or even after
two terms, to accommodate the aspirations
of I" teething" politicians, in our opinion,
sacrifices much of the talent, if not also
much of the zeal of our national law max
ers. Craftsmanship must be learned as
all other trades, and should command pat
ronage according to its aoorth, not accord
ing to its political prefcrment.

Senator Douglas.

The editor of the Jersey Shore Kedstte says
that "DougIas is bad man; he is the aHthar
of all the difficulties that have hcSet this gov
ernment in regard 10 the slavery question for
the last six years" Handsome talk for a
honely man. Judging from speech m ade
by the editor of the Vsdetc at Milesburg, d
few weeks since, there is no dagger that he
will ever perpstrate any mischief 1t is very
strange that the Republican editors in Penn
Sylyania have not discovered that Senator
Douglas course was ratified in all their tri-
umpas, and that the positions he has taken
were used TO strengthen their organizati0n.-

Reading Luzette, who gas then a men,
Der of tho House, which authorizes the
truth to be given in evidence, nall cases
of libel. A story has been current, for
sometime past, Gsat the law had been pro-
nounced unconstitutional, liz the trial of
a suit IN Schuylkill county. This state
meut the Reading Gazette diSproyes, and
adds:
"In a prosecution for libel against the
publishers of newspaper IN this city,
which was tried before the Court OF Qual-
ter Sessions, some six months ago, the
new law of libel was also incidentally
brought to the notice of the court by
council in their arguments, although 1t
had no application to the case in hand,
which was one III which the official con-
duet of public officer had been the sub
ieet of the alleged libel, and hence it
came directly within the constitutional
provision, But Judge Jones, in charg-
Ing the jury, took occasion to say that the
new law in no wise c0ntravened or trans
ccnded the constitution; that it raised
the old common law up to the standard
at which that instrument had fixed the
liberty of the press, and was in agreement
and harmony with it.
ave may add that when this new libel
law was pending before the Legislature,
it was thoroughly discussed BY lawyers in
both branches. 1t met with stout oppo-
sition from Wright of Luzerne, Mont
gomery of Montour, aud Phelps, of Arm
strong, in the House, and from Mr., Buck
alew, in the Senate but the question
of its eoustiutionality was not cuoc raised
BY either Of those gentlemen. And when
we say, further, that it found advocates
in the venerable Judge Wilkins, of Ale
ghcny, in Eli X. Price, n. 3. Browne
and L. Joy Morris, Of Philadelphia, and
received the approval Of Coy. Pollock, an
experienced lawyer, and once President
Judge, it appears to us that lis constitu-
tionalitv should be admitted, at least un-
til the Supreme Court-tho only author
itative and final arbiter of such questions
decides otherwise.
