The Emancipation Agitation in Missouri.

Some of our southern exchanges are
making a dreadful cutlery over the emanci-
patton agitation in Missouri. But what Of
| il? Should this agitation result in the ab-
clifton of slavery in that state will 1t dis
solve the union3-or reduce the price of
nigeers in Virginia?-or wlther up the
cotton crop Of Georgia. Not bit of it
The question Of slavery or no slavery Is
purely state que-tion. AT the outset ev-
ery state in the union was slave state; but
in one after another of the states where
slave labor "could not be made 10 pay"
slavery has been abolished, and under the
same rule, when il is discovered that free
white labor pays better in Missouri than
black slave labor, slavery must back out'-
That is all. Thus, very likely during the
present generation, black slave labor VIII
be superseded by the overwhelming pres
sure of free white labor, not only IN Mis-
souri,, but also in Kentucky, Virginia, Ma
ryland and Delaware; and against any Of
these states adopting free white labor IN
lieu of slave labor, no Legitimate complaint
can be made. 1t is purely matter OF state
policy and state sovereignty. But while
state sovereignty and the law of dollars and
cents have regulated, and will regulate the
metes and bounds of slave labor, the same
law of the almighty dollar will keep the un-
ion together, because north and south 1t
pays. Niggers or no nIggers, the union is
secure while it pays. Let Missouri 60 a.
head and do as she likes. She cannot
change the climate OF South Carolina.
The above is from the New York Herald,
the administration organ in the commercial
and financial metropolis of the United
States. 1t treats the negro question CON-
mercially and fnancia ally, which is proper,
and preferable 10 mixing it up with poll
tics, as democratic demagogues and office
seekers are in the habit Of doing. When
ever slave labor ceases to be profitable In
Missouri, it will be banished, as il was in
Other States. 1t is question for our hemp
and tobacco growers to solve, and they are
not likely to abandon slave labor so long as
those articles pay the highly remuneratIve
prices they have paid, for many years
There is no sense in political agitation eli
mate, dollars aud cents, will abolish or per
petuate slavery, just as the superior ener'
gy, intellect and interest," OF the white race
shall determine.

Col. Forney on the Lecompton Confer

Sol. forney on tne Lecomptou eoAAoi
ence.
Col. Forney of the Philadelphia Press,
the man who did more to secure Buchan-
ans election than any other single individ-
ual, thus speaks of the Conference Report,
which was adopted by COugress:-
"Lecompton, with its protection and per-
petuation of Slavery, may be made the
Constitution of Kansas with a population,
according TO the accounts Of the Pro-Slavery
men themselves, of not more than 36,000;
while, if the people reject it, and proceed TO
make a Constitution of their own, they
will be kept knocking at the doors Of Con
gress until they have attained the requisite
ratio Of population! The English bill, in
order TO secure the support OF the Southern
extremists on,its that portion Of The original
Senate bill reported by Senator Green, upon
Which so much stress was laid tor the pur-
pose Of capturing ,reak Democrats, that pro-
claimed The doctrine that the people Of Kan
sas could Immediately proceed 10 alier the
Lecompton Constitution outside Of The prOuis-
ions ofhe Constitution itself. You will re-
collect that, on this theory, powerful ap-
peals have been made to the people of the
North TO agree to Lecompton. Mr.. Buck
alew, Of our State Senate, based his plansi-
BILE, yet unsound, report upon it, while John
Van Buren, and others rung the changes
upon it until il was elevated into new ar
ticle Of the Democratic faith. But now
Mr.. English, in order TO obtain the sup.
port OF the seveniy-six Southern Democrats
in the House, who lately voted to strike
out that provision, deliberately erpunges Ii
from the nc,r programme, and SO leares Le
compton purely and simply a Pro- Slare1g
Constitution.
This plan is the Inauguration not only
Of new, but most dangerous principle
II is flying in the face of the entire actor
of the Democratic party. No man who
votes for j, from free State can eyer ex
pect to stand before the awful tribunal o
popular Indignation and investigation. In
1855, the entire Democratic party voted fol-
the admission of Kansas, when the number
of her population was far below what /, is
at the present day, and in 1886 the Admin
istra,ion planted itself upon the theory thai
the Kanse, Nebraska bill was all enabling
act OF il itself, and now. 10 cap the climax,
we have Mr. English coming forward
with proposition TO admit Kansas into the
Union with Pro-Slavery Constitution, in
the face Of the admission that the popula-
ton of the Territory is but $4,000; whils
IN the same bill, he fakes care 10 insert a pro-
hibition against her admission under any
other Constitution until she has attained q
new and increased ratio Of population!
"The intelligent citizen will perceive
that this compromise, SO mi'called, provides
that Kansas can only be admitted into tbs
Union as q slave State"

A Free Labor Candidate in the Third
District.

The Alexandra Delta of the 9th, says:
1t has been thought until now, that the
Lecompton Swindlers in this district were
TO have the congressional race all their ow n
way, and Gen. Clark would have no oppo-
sition; but we are most happy TO inform the
Independent voters of tho third district of
Missouri, that there will be an anti-Le-
compton, Free Labor candidate for Con-
gress, A number of able and distinguished
champions OF Popular Sovereignty and
Grad Ial Emancipation, will make thor
ough canvass of the district and speak in
every part Of it, in behalf Of the congress-
ional candidste-whose name will be an
nounced in due time.
Should the above announcement! prove
true the American Party must put candi-
date on the track, forthwith. With SO rad
ical a man as Clark, and one equally radi-
cal opposing him, the Americans, Wings,
and Union Democrats, who occupy q Con-
serva,ive position, and are alike opposed 10
the agiiating ul.raisms of Northern and
Southern Democracy; all, in short, who are
opposed TO q strictly slavery agitation can
vass, will desire 10 have candidate in the
field who will reflect their sentiments, and
by whose election, agitation and agitators,
will be buried in a common grave-and
buried so deep that they will never be
heard of again. We have Americans quail
fled to discharge this duty; there are
Wings competent TO the task, and non-agi-
tation Democrats equally qualified ana CON-
petent.
LIE, all such stand by their arms, ready
TO move in concert, and strike The fatal
blow.

Senator'S Views,

Mr.. Douglas said: That glorious band Of
Democrats, who acted with him in Con-
grsss and out of Congress, have achieved q
triumph. What the consequence will be
of the position he has taken he knows not,
but il he csnno: remain in public life with
the principles he maintains, he would re-
tire TO private life, where he could enjoy
the approval of his conscience.
Mr.. Hunter, in advocating the report Of
the committee, said that the bill now under
consideration, aid tie original bill, acknOwl-
edged the binding obligation of the i.ecomp-
ton Constitution. Both act on the princi-
pie Of recognizing no right to submit the
Constitution to the people. The ordinance
and nothing else is submitted. There Is no
such thing as submitting the Constitution.
They acknowledged no power to change
or modify the Constitution, except in the
way indicated in that instrument; and,
therefore, he and his friends, in advocat-
ing the proposition, preserved their con-
sistency.
Mr.. Green, OF Missouri, in advocating
the report, took the same ground as Mr..
Hunter. that the principle for which the
Senate had commended, Of not submitting the
Lecompton Constitution 10 the people, was
fully preserved in the bill prepared by the
conlerees.
