argued the Dred Scott case on the pro-

denying the usual Interpretation Of that de-

tabishes slavery in all Of the territories Of
the United States. He says:
"The remaining and last question I pro-
pose to examine is-can the Territorial Gov
ernment admit, protect, or exclude slavery
at any time during it's existence The
distinguished writer maintains the a1irma-
tire of this proposition with great ability.

versy, and at war with the Buchanan and
