Nicely Caught.

The Louisville Courier, whose editor is
one Of the federal Office holders in Kentucky,
has put bis foot in it," The Courier is
one Of the most rabid advocates Of Congress
sional intervention in the whole South, and
can scarcely find language strong enough to
denouuce 10 terms fitting TO its notions those
who stand by the doctrine Of squatter SOW
ereignty" At the sane time the Courier
is a staunch admirer and supporter OF Mr..
BUCHANAN in all the length and breadth Of
his action. A sharp controversy on the
question OF slavery in the territories has
been running for some time between our
Louisville contemporary and the Cincinnati
Enquirer, whose editor is also federal Office
holder. The Enquirer was called upon TO
define its position 10 brief space aud it did
30 as follows
ave hold that the people Of Territory like
those OF a State. shall decide for themselves
whether slavery shall or shall not exist within
their limits.
Upon this the Courier comments:
The editor of the Enquire. in the above par
agraph has made his own platform, and We AS
sure him. with all frsnkness, that On IL cannot
be carried . single county in any Southern
State. His position is in direct conflict with the
bred Scott decision and the Cincinnati Plat.
form, and We do not see how any one holding
it can pretend TO nationality Of sentiment. II
is squstter sovereignty IN its most obnoxious
form. Holding such sentiments the Enquirer
has the enrontery TO intermediate in Kentucky
politics, and seek TO dictate to Kentucky Dem
Ocrats.
The Enquirer rejoins;

Of President Buchanan, IN which he accepted
the Democratic nomination Tor President IN

in the fact that il is denouncng President Blu

NOa-InteuveutiOa.

Many persons are in the habit Of talking
Of the early policy of the Government as
justifyiDg by precedent the interference Of
the Federal Government with slavery in the
Territories. The ordinance OF 1857 is gen.
orally referred TO in this sense but it must
not be forgotten that this was passed before
the Constitution was adopted, and was q
matter Of compact between Virginia and
the Confederation. All the early terrific
ries formed after the adoption Of the Con sti
tuition, were left free from this kind OF inter
ference. The Philadelphia Pres, referring
TO them, says:
political system vas mstared--before the Con.
stiiution formed. lis exclusion Of slavery In
the Northwest Territory vas unadyised. but as
II vas unpecsssAry and harmless. it's import
ance shielded II from anfnsdversion. No leg

slavery in that Territory. and mere parch-

posed upon the Territory Of kentacky, esd@d
by Virginia 10 l1,4, nor applied when she was
admitted into the rnisn In l7y7 Tennessee.
In like manner was coded by North Carolina
10 the Union In l7-s. and in l7yo Congress
erected IL into Territory, without Interfering
with lis domestic institutions. The same thing
