CAN'r DEPRIVE MAN OF HIS PRoPERTY.-
The Express of yesterday has very learned
disquisition on the subject of the inviOlahili-
ty of property under the Constitution of the
United States 1t says that Territorial
Legislature cannot legislate in an unfriendly
manner to slavery, because it will be destroy
ing the rights Of property Atthe same time,
it says that the people, when they come to
form State Constitution, may abolish slave
ry altogether. If the abolishment of slavery
altogether is not destroying the rights o
property we should think unfriendly legsla
tion could hardly be said to be of that char
acter
The fact is, this ineessant talk about de.
priving citizen of his property is non
sense. There is no roperty in the world
which is above legislation All kinds of
property must be regulated. in some manner
or other. Slave property, having two legs
and reasoning faculty. requires peculiar
Legislation. There must be some legislation
respecting it The doctrine Of Popular Sow
STSiSh'1 iOtulus Tue eASEclSe VI thlS leSlsld-
ton by Congress Therefore it devolves
upon the Territories. The Territories cannot
60 beyond the Constitution in what they do,
for they are restrained by the Supreme Court.
And this is the whole sum and substance of
the doctrine against which the ridiculous cry
is raised that cit deprives a citizen of his
property"

Yesterday morning. between
one and two o'clock, man named Clayton,
from 0roville, and who was stopping at the
Verandah Hotel, in this city, wandered off
upon Fourth street towards Murrays slough.
He was under the influence of liquor and
was looking for his hotel, which was in an
entirely different direction, The first thing
he knew, he was grabbed from behind
thrown upon his back, and checked within
an inch of his life by one individual un-
known to him, while another equally un-
known put his hands into his pockets and ex
tracted thcrefrom a silver watch and $45 il
money. He was let up and Jet go, wiser
