The Democratic party maintains that
the Constitution of the United States re-
cognizes and establishes slavery in all our
Territories. In making it the creature OF
the Federal constitution they put it be-
yond the power Of any State to interfere
with it. for no State Constitution can alb
rogate the Federal Constitution or any
part oft. They thus maintain, let them
deny it or equivocate about it as they will,
that slavery may be introduced into any
free State at any time, and maintained
there in spite of the will of the people
This is the Democratic ground The free
laborers of Indiana should remember it,
for to them belongs the defence of our
State from the slavery policy Of that par
ty- To this end the Democratic party is
laboring. And their exultation over the
defeat of free labor Candidate for Con
gress in st. Louis, by pro-slavery man,
shows that their feelings accord exact
ly with their political declarations.-Iad

the cause of the protuberance on the camel's

our doing So in anything like a satisfacto-

is that the camel took offense at not being
allowed to head the procession into the
Ark, and got has back up; and Allah. as a
just punishment for his vanity and pre-

Clay occupied. They oppose Slavery in

political institution--they are opposed t.
its extension over new States, but they
will not modest it where it is

Africa. ''for the purpose Of taking on
board African emigrants, in accordance
with the United States PASSENGER laws, and
returning with the same to the United
States" and was refused under instruc-
tions from, the Secretary of Treasury, has
replied at some length to Mr.. Cobb, deny
ing his authority to refuse the application.
Mr.. Lamar claims that the law Is clear be-
You'd all question as to his right to bring
Africans to this country as proposed by
him; and that Whether profitable or not, for
whatever he may doc that subject he is
responsible only to the courts Of justice;
and. further. that the Secretary as an Off
Ger Of this Government, can only abridge
him of that right upon the broad ground
that the privileges of the citizens of this
country are only to b, enjoyed upon the
sufferance of Executive discretion. Mr..
Lamar says that "it would be difficult to
conceive Of an act more wisely patriotic
than would be that Of sending native ne
groes to the Northern States" and he
thinks.a single win go far to cure the
North of that form of her philanthropy
which organizes bands to steal slaves from
the South He concludes with the follow
ing defiance: ea
$50, also, would not be mistaken in
another matter. In disclaiming the pur-
pose. upon this occasion, of engaging in
the slave trade. it NAV be inferred that at any
timeI would avoid the imputation. of
such an enterprise; but this is not the fact
Under ordinary circumstances would not
violate the laws. l am pleased, when l
can. to honor aud sustain them; but this
law prohibiting the slave trade was not
adopted by the Intelligence, certainly not
by the genius of the South. 1t is enforced
by the sentiment Of another and hostile
section Of the country. 1t is sustained by
persons who have more regard for the
people of that other section than the
truth 1t is badge of servitude brand
of reprobation; and not only would | not
sustain it. but, as have told YOU frankly
from the first, intend to violate it

eign countries, and your cruisers, may

In his. recent Abolition. speech, Lord
Brougham related the following anecdote:
Lord Lyndhurst gave me short time
since an anecdotc of gentleman who was
connected with the Hague, and who, on one
occasion, received an invitation to the
house of a Cuban gentleman, a negro pro
prietor Of large estate, where he was re-
ceiyed with the utmost hospitality, aud
treated elegantly. He said he was rather
entertained when. after dinner was over, his
colored host said that no was man with
out any prejudice whatever, and that
whenever he found a person honest. hon
orable. and respectable in every point of
view. he held out the hand Of fellowship to
him, even though his col or was as white as
that table cloth! ( 80 ffSs
