kind. lie says that a control, subject TO the
Constitution, should be exercised by reg uiGr-
~ organized communities. aud by them only,
and that Congress must organize these com
munities-Congress must judge as to the
amount Of population requisite to constitute
an organized political community. Every
thoroughly organized political community Is
eomnetent to take care Of itself and to reg
ulate its own affairs. If it trauscends the
| bounds Of the Constitution, the Federal
Courts may intervene. Furthermore. ii the
Territorial Legislatures, representing these
organized communities, should prove disloy
al to the Constitution, and carry things with
high hand as is sometimes done in Nor
mondom, they may be abolished, and Con-
gress take the supreme power into its own
! hands.
| BY the pursuance of this line of policy,
the distracting question of slavery is taken
from the hands of Congress and localized il
each separate, organized community. Each
community for itself regulates its own private
affairs. Nothing could be fairer. Judge
Black himself agrees and insists that when
the people of Territory come to form a
State Constitution, they can exclude slavery
if they like or on the contrary establish It,
He thought that the population OF Kansas
was sufficient to do this, at the time OF the
formation of the Lecompton Constitution.
| Very well, if q certain amount of population
can do it, when they come to form State
Constitution, why cannot they do it before
Is there any less sovereignty in the same
number of people at one time than at anoth-
err Douglas thinks that every regularly or
gauized comHunity ought to regulate its own
domestic aifuirs, slavery included, but Gl'cdys
pitlin the restrictions Of the Constitution
These views are really and truly the saliva
tion of the South, aud the sooner she learns
it the better for her
The whole sum and substance of the Doug
las doctrine is given in our brief exposition
of his views above, and we think that it
must be obvious to every right-thinking man
that both principle and expediency approve
the nomination of Stephen A. Douglas for
the Presidency, by the Democratic party.
