He proceeded to say ofSquatter Sovereignty
that if voting is the natural right of a white
man so it is the natural right of the black man,
and if fifty thousand blacks should meet in a

physiological argument, can prove thata black

Let Us tell them that we rely upon the eotem-
poraneous construction of Constitution, and
we can with enimpeaehed integrity oblige them
to DO so. Mr. Corwin here devoted some at
tentiod TO the question of admitting States with
slavery Constitution, and said he would not
do so even if his constituents instructed him to
do so; he would resign first. He thought, how
ever, that there Is now no practical view of
slavery, which makes it of deep interest. He
was opposed to the acquisition gilmore territory
/ He would advise Republicans if they want
the agitation of slavery 10 cease, they must not
acquire more territory; with 25.000,O00 of peo-
pie, we have oue-tenth of the Globe and We
want no more. Yousay you want Cuba, or you

key of the Gulf. Why is not Jamaica or Canada
dangerous to our peace? The danger is mot
here, it is in the South. They say that is man

fest destiny always runs to the South. After
expressing his conviction that the anti-slavery
sentiment mustbe victorious over its antagonists,
with either the Wilnot Proviso or squatter SOW

topics, which. lie said, were opinions of his own
the Republican party had not expressed itself
definitely upon them; among them were gov

He opposed the accumulation of debt in the
time of peace, and held it to be the duty of the
Republican party to bring down the expendi-i
lures of the Government 10 the lowest point pos

and to scale up {. tariff to that precise point.
He was in favor of discriminating between home

A Peace Concluded.
NEW PARTITION.
THE POPE HONORARY PRESIDENT.

THE POPE HONORARY PRESIDENT.
The news Of Pence, by the North Bri-
ton, comes sooner that our readers expect
ed, but the opinion that the Armistice
would result in Peace has been very gen.
eral ever since the advices by the last
steamer, declaring cessation Of hostiii-

Napoleon and Joseph have met and de-
clared new partition Of the Upper Italy.
Austria resigns her power ssoverf Lomr
hardy, presenting it to France, and Napo-
leon immediately transfers it over to Sardi-
Ma. Austria retains Venice, and we sup
pose matters at Rome itself and in the
States of the Church remain IN stut's quo.
The most that has been accomplished is
what Napoleon III. had, particularly in
view, yiz.l his own eelat with the French
Nation. He needed the prestige of milita-
ry fame to settle him in his Imperial seal.
That be now has achieved; his uncle new
er returned to Paris after his most brilliant
campaign with more military glory than
has Napoleon III. won in a sixty day cam
paign. What other results may flow from
this war it is too soon to determine. =
Austria has been shorn of her strength.
So far so good. That is a blow at a ty-
rannical monarchy, which to a certain ex-
tent, comes from the masses. 1t zhumil-
iates cruel dynasty, it makes.one step to-
wards recognition of the rights Of thepeo-
pie. 1sa .li..sss ss..sss 49,
Although the Pope is not stripped Of
his authority, his temporal power is very
much shorn of its strength. The Honora-
ry title of President over the Italian Con-
federation is awarded him, but even that
concession only shows that be must take
what the belliggefent powers are'willng 10

tria is. a blow at Popery, forevery intelli-

II looks now as if Napoleon HI has
been supremely selfish in all his move
ments; looking alone 10 selfglory. We
cannot see any national results cores
ponding with the cost of this war. The
blood and the treasure have been poured
out without due return. Results greater
than merely humiliating Austria, and more
damaging to the Pope's supremacy than
merely demonstrating bis dependence up
on France, should have coms of all this
torrent of blood Italy has gained but
little, and her people must sink back into
their bigotry, their ignorance and their de-

sE The Court of Cuyahoga county through
Judge FooT, recently declared the "Black Law
passed last winter TO be unconstitutional. The
Court held that under the old Constitution of
Ohio all persons having more than half white
blood were declared to be legally white. The
new Constitution merely mentioned "wbite
persons" without defining what constituted a
white person, consequently the definition of a
white person contained in the old Constitution
remained in force, and any law declaring per-
son having more than half white blood TO be a
negro must of necessity be Unconstitutional
