SLAVE TRADE. The Kenosha Democ4at char
acterizes it Misrepresentation, that the Demo
cratic party is in favor of re-openng the slave
trade. If the Dnmocrat means to be understood
that some portions Of the Democratic party, do
not now express desire for the revival Of the
slave trade, It's undoubtedly correct. But that
there Is not at this time, strong and Influential
portion of the National Democracy, who are car,
nest in their endeayOrs to revive the slave trade,
Is what no well informed man will venture to
assert. We can furnish the Democrat with al
most any number Of declarations of prominent
democrats, holding high positions in the party,
which are boldly in favor of the repeal of all laws
Of Congress which interfere with the foreign
slave trade: There was time in our countrys.
history, when not SO large a number of Dem.
ocrats could be found in favor of the repeal Of
the Missouri Compromise, as are now for re-
opening the slave traffic.

The Kenosha d emOerat does not SEQ why a
few Republicans cannot come over ard help the
Democracy; that paper says: The Republi-
cans differ from us only in the fact that they
insist upon the Interference Of Congress in the
Territories" The Democrat would have stated
the difference more clearly by saying, the Re
publicanS believe with Jefferson and Madison
that it is the daty Of Congress to arrest the
spread of slavery, while the Democrats are for
allowing it to go where it peases.
But now, since the hand of the editor Of the
Democrat is in, will he please tell us to VIII
extent the people of the Territories may control
their own affairs, or will he define popular
sovereignty All this talk by the Democratic
party about the people of the Territories having
the right Of controlling their own institutions,
is sheer nonsense Adopt either the Buchanan
or the Douglas doctrine, and popular sovereign
~ is an absurdity; because both adopt the full
force and effect Of the bred Scott decision. Mr.,
Buchanan in his famous letter TO Prof. Silliman,
says
slavery existed at that period, and still ex-
lists in Kansas, under the Constitution Of the
United States. This point has finally been settled
by the highest tribunal known to our laws.
Now, if slavery exists in the Territories by
virtue of the Constitution of the United States,
will the Democrat tell us by what sort of opera
ton of popular sovereignty the people can get
it out Douglas acknowledges the bred Scott
decision as well as Buchanan therefore those
who profess to be his followers, occupy a more
shsuvd nosition than the follovers If Rucbovo,,
because the latter discard popular sovereignty.
