a. Through the connivancc Of the U. S.
District Attorneys, Marshals and Judges, all
the trials of the slave.traders of the Echo
which were commenced some months ago
have terminated in the triumphant acquittal
of the criminals. This result was univers-
ally anticipated; indeed, it is natural and
necessary result growing out of the known
proclivities Of the Administration, and the
Federal Courts and the officers in favor of
slavery.propagandism in every shape.

northwest of the Ohio river, were, in express
terms, declared to be PARTICLES of compact"
Now, every one of the clauses Of the fourth
article of the Constitution above quoted were
borrowed and transferred, with but slight
verbal alterations, from the articles of confed-
Grafton and the ordinance of 1787-the first
three from the former, and the last from the
latter-with this exception only, that to the
first of these clauses was added a grant of
power to Congress to prescribe the manner
of proof and effect Of public acts, records
and judicial proceedings. Here, then, we
have certain articles of compact-admitted or
declared to be such, and nothing more-bor-
rowed and transferred from one instrument to
another, with no intimation of any change
Of their character as articles of compact, cx-
cept in single instance, where the change is
expressly declared. The inference seems to
me to be irresistible, that, except SO far as
the change is expressly declared, they re-
manned after the transfer, the same as they
were before-articles of compact, and moth
ing else.

due under the laws of another State from
which the fugitive has fed. But the federal
government has nothing to do with tae SUBJ
iect, and its interference is sheer usurpation
of a power granted, but reserved.

HoUsk-Mr. Morris of Illinois, obtained the
floor, but yielded to Mr. Rust Who said thst,
several years ago he made pledge to his con-
stituents that he would never again indulge
in sectional debate, but recent events have ab.
solved him from that pledge; he alluded 70
the atrosity of John Browns raid and the con-
tinual aggression Of the North upon the rights
Of the South. He then spoke Of the infamous
character Of Helpers book the non-slave-
holders Of the South have no sympathy with
such doctrines and his appeal to them will be
unheeded. yet that infamous book has been en-
dorsed by the candidate of the Republicans
or Speaker, and the whole antecedents Of that
gentleman are in perfect keeping with that
act; he has been uniformly conspicuous and
intensely sectional, and no man has been more
intolerant to the South. and he owes his pres
snt nomination less to mis- ability and accom-
plishments as Q statesman than to his hostility
to the South he invited Us to scrutinixe his
record-I have done 80. He alluded to Mr.
Sherman's course on the Kansas Bill and the
Army Apporiionment Bill in the XXXIVth
Congress- He spoke Of the objects Of the Re-
publican party, characterzing them as treas
enable.

Iverson prevailed. Yeas. IS; nays, IL.
The Secretary Of the Senate then read the
message
Mr. Clingman, Of N. c., proposed to post

Mr. Bright of Ind said it would be better to
adopt the usual course. He moved that the
message and documents be printed. but asked

days, as the Senate had no printer yet. This
course was pursued, and the Senate adjourned
till Friday.
HoUeE-The Message of the President was
received
Mr. John Cochrane, Of n Y, moved that it
be laid on the table until the House effects an
organization.
Mr. Craige, of North Carolina, moved to

ceived and read
Mr.. Cochrane accepted the amendment
Much excitement prevailed, the Republican
members calling for the yeas and nays. A call

measure with the view to their relief
Mr.. Washburne. Of ILL.,, said they would ac-
cept the resolution if Jao. Sherman's name was
