maintain is the principle of the Soath Just AS mach ss

know that was prior to the Constitution, but will re-
mind YOU that the Constitution recognizes that ord-
nance n valid and substantial law. IL IL now valid
law and always one under the Constitution OF the
United States. What was that ordinance IL was an
agree m. Mt that all that country called the Northwest
Territory, which bad been originally claimed by the
State OF Virginia, should be ceded TO the United
Staies and that all that country should forever be
free from Slavery. Now, ask the South who 1t was
that naugurated that system IL was thef own Ia.
vorte statesman--it was their own great name that
beaded THE column which they now denounce aS Anti
Slavery fillibusters. There ia scarcely name that
shines bright upon the pages OF southern history
which cannot be enrolled now AS leader OF tnat
system or policy at that time. You may remem-
Der that Indiana Territory, after Ohio became a
State, petitioned Congress for relaxation
of the Ordinance of 1857, that they might have
slaves for tine in Indiana alleging that they wanted
labor in the country, and could not YET be nad
upess they could be permitted to bring slaves into that
II rrirory comprehended in the Ordinance OF 1877.
Now then observe, that while our Democratic friends
of the South contend that the Constitution does legal
ze Slavery in the Territories, the Democrats, chiefly
of the North and in my own State entirely so, with
the exception of postmasters MAINTAIN tnat the Con-
