which necessarily results from diversity of
pursuits, is a period of hardship, of pecuniary
embarrassment, and frequent pecuniary revul-
sions, resulting from overproduction of the
necessaries of life. Free communities require
a diversity of occupations, division of labor,
TO give roundness and completeness to the
social fabric Without these, there can be no
great cities, no home markets for the products
of the soil. The cities and towns of the West
have grown with astonishing rapidity, but they
have not kept pace with the demands of the
agriculture of the West for home market 1t
is also to be remarked that the Western cities
and towns owe too much Of their life and
growth to mere trade in the exchange of the
products of the soil for Eastern or European
manufactures. They are, in consequence, sub
ject to continual fluctuations, growing out Of
the varying demand and supply of Western
staples. They must now enter upon a new
career-a career of internal development. They
must engage in manufacturing and mechanical
pursuits. In this way, the West is to become
a selfsubsisting community, and not mere
granary for the rest of the country, in which
grain almost everywhere grows in abundance.

a soPHIsM OF MR.. DOUGLAS.

In his magazine essay, Mr.. Douglas denies
that Slavery in the Territories can be protected
by the Federal courts established therein, and
attempts to establish the point by the following
argument. He says:
" How the courts are to afford protection to
slaves or any other property, where there is no
law providing remedies and imposing penalties
and comforting Jurisdiction upon the courts to
hear and determine the causes as they arise,
remains to be explained
The acts of Congress establishing the sever
al Territories of the United States provide that
the jurisdiction of the several courts herein
provided for, both appellate and original, and
that OF the probate courts and justices of the
peace, shall be as limited by law meaning
such laws as the Territorial Legislatures shall
from time to time enact. 1t will be seen that
the Judicial tribunals of the Territories have
just such jurisdiction, and only such, IN respect
to the rights of persons and property pertain
ing to the citizens of the Territory as the Ter
ritorial Legislature shall see fit to confer; and
consequently, that the courts can afford protec.
ton to persons and property no further than
the Legislature shall, by law, confer the iuris-
diction, and prescribe the remedies, penalties,
and modes of proceeding"
DuI 1nI' Dougiass argument IS good for
nothing, except on the assumption that the ex
listing acts of Congress in relation to the juris-
diction of Territorial courts are inevitable and
lrrepealable. He assumes that no other limit
could be assigned to them than that which has
been assigned in the organic acts of Kansas
Nebraska, and other Territories heretofore es-
tablished. Butsuppose Congress should change
the law in these Territories, and authorize the
courts to look to the Constitution, as interpret
ed by the bred Scott decision, for their guide.
What, under such circumstances, would be-
come of the Territorial laws and of popular
sovereignty?
But, even under the existing laws, we deny
that the deduction of Mr.. Douglas is legitimate.
The Jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the
Union sis limited by laws " enacted by Con-
gress, but Congress cannot say what its decision
shall be IN any case, and the court net unfre-
quently pronounces the acts of Congress I'M
constitutional. AS case directly in point, we
win call Mr.. Douglass attention to the fact
that the law Of Congress which for thirty-three
years excluded Slavery from Kansas and Ne
braska has been declared null and void by the
court in the bred Scott case

do for a novice to dogmatize. He should per-
severe in his studies, and he may yet find out
that Slavery was not regarded as of divine
origin, or entitled'to peculiar protection at the
hands of the Federal Government, for many
years after the formation of the Constitution.
But if Mr.. Douglas may be excused on the
score of ignorance in regard to the readoption
of the AntiSlavery proviso by the Congress of
1885, he is entitled to no benefit Of clergy in his
fragrant attempt to ignore the ordinance of
1887. The ordinance was the Jefersonian
plan carried cut, and ii foreoer excluded Sla
pe1y from all the Territories belonging 70 the
United States. We say all the Territories, and
we viii proceed to demonstrate it. New York
and Virginia, as we have already stated, were
the first to cede their claims to the Federal
Government, as early as 1882 and 1884. Mas
sachusetts and Connecticut also made grants
which were finally accepted in 1886, The ces-
sion made by North Carolina, first agreed to in
was not accepted until 1890, when the present
Constitution had gone into operation. The
deed of cession of South Carolina was made in
August, 1887, after the adoption of the ordi-
nance Of that year; and that of Georgia was
made at the same time The cession made by
Virginia embraced the territory northwest of
the Ohio, but not that south of it.
Every foot of territory, therefore, over which
Congress had control, was dedicated to Freedom
by the ordinance of 1887. The States owning
the Southern territories would not surrender
them to the Federal Government, except on
the condition that Slavery was to be tolerated.
The enlightened men of the. South, the Wash,
ingtons, Jeffersons, Madisons, Masons, Martins,
Pinckneys, Randolphs, Williamsons, and Ire
dells, we've all for Freedom, but the majority
chung to Slavery.
The ordinance of 1887, for the government
of the territories northwest of the Ohio, was
finally adopted on the 18th of July, as a praeti
cal measure based on the "Jeffersonian plan"
The following proviso is its distinguishing fea
ture:
"There shall be neither Slavery nor involun
tary servitude in the said Territory, otherwise
than in the punishment of crimes, whereof the
parties shall be duly convicted"
The yeas and nays upon its adoption were as
follows:
The national era. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1847-1860, 1859-09-08


cOt. 4, page 373.
1t win be seen that decided majority of the
States represented and of the delegates present
voted for the Ant-Slavery proviSo. There was
popular majority for it, but it failed fol-
want of constitutional majority. Unluckily
one of the delegates from New Jersey was alb
sent, and, owing to that circumstance, the State
though voting for the proviso by its single Rep
resentative present, was not counted. We
stated last week, OH the authority of Mr.. Hill
dreth, in whose general accuracy as historian
the greatest confidence may be placed, that II
was necessary that nine States should vote fol-
the proviso to secure its adoption but, upon a
careful examination of the Articles of Confed.
Grafton we find that seven, or a majority of the
thirteen States, would have suficed. The presI
ence of one more member from New Jersey,
therefore, would have carried the point in favor
of Freedom. As the matter stands, six States
voted for the Anti Slavery pfoyiso, and were
counted. One other, New Jersey, voted for it,
but was not counted for the reason stated.
-Four States voted against it, while two of them
cast each vote for it, viz Mr.. jefferson, of
Virginia, and Mr.. Williamson, of North Caro-
lima. Maryland would also have given vote
for the proviso, if Mr.. Chase had been present.
Delaware and Georgia were not represented.
OF the twenty three members present, sirteen
voted for Freedom in the Territories, and only
to the circumstances above stated, defeated the
proviso. Now, as Mr.. Douglas is the champion
of maorities, it is difficult to understand how
he can rejoice at the defeat of measure of
Freedom, by less than onethird of Congress,
and that measure devised by Mr.. Jefferson him
self. But Mr.. Douglas delights to dub it the
Jeffersonian plan" with the Jeffersonian fea-
ture struck out
We will now proceed to the action of the
Congress Of 1885. 1t is due to candor and
fairness to state that we had never met with
the following highly interesting and important
passage, from the journals of Congress, until
we saw it few days ago, in the Chicago Press
and Tribune. In all the able discussions. in
Congress and out Of it, so far as we know, it has
been entirely overlooked and yet, upon exam
nation, we find it both in Dunlap's edition of
the journals, and in the later edition published
in 1923. 1t is as follows:
Wednesday, March l6, 1886. Congress
assembled Present as yesterday.
A motion was made by Mr. King, seconded
by Mr.: Ellery, that the following proposition be
committed:
That there shall be neither Slavery nor
involuntary servitude in any of the States de-
scribed in the resolve of Congress of the 23d of
April, 1884, otherwise than in punishment of
crime, whereof the party shall have been proved
personally guilty and that this regulation
shall be an article of compact, and remain a
fundamental principle of the Constitutions be-
tween the thirteen original States and each of
the States described in the said resolve Of the
23d of April, 1884
ION the question for commitment, the yeas
and nays being required by Mr. King, the vote
stood as follows: r

mans consent is not inherently sinful, is not
sin in ITSELF how can it be sin at ALI If
slaveholding is not natural injustice and
wrong to the slave, and as such to be branded
as criminal in itself, then what have moral re-
formers to do with it, and why are church and
State so stirred for its overthrow What is
all this commotion for, in the moral and the
political heavens, except it be that the light
ming of truth is blasting as sin, and only sin
continually, the foul practice of slaveholding,
and the vast defiant system of American sla.

No DWORCE.-In South Carolina there
no divorce after marriage; wed for life mu
be the fact in law, when an instance of 6iyOn
has never been known there 1t has been a
thoritatively settled that no judicial trbun
in the State has authority to declare deere
of divorce for any cause whatsoever. Il d
power exists at all, it is in the Legisatur
! which has hitherto never thought proper to II
ercise the power. Further, it has been de-
mined by the courts of South Carolina, that
marriage solemnized in that State is ndss0.
BILE by the sentence Of any court in a s.,r,
State, so as to affect the rights or condition
the parties in South Carolina. 1t will be SET
then, that it is much easier to tie the knot tbs.
to undo it. With rare exceptions, the ceren,
ny of marriage is, in fact, performed by cr'
gyman but the indissolubility of the marriag
contract is not only part of the law, but it
the fixed and habitual sentiment of the con
munity on the subject of divorce. So says a
exchange.
The above paragraph, which we End goH
the rounds of the press, is fragrant misrepr
sentation Of the facts Of the case, In no Stat
of the Union are divorces effected with more f
eility, and in no one except Virginia are the
so frequent as in South Carolina. Ever
planter and stakeholder is invested by law vii
the Papal prerogative of annulling marriages
and putting asunder those whom God hs
joined together. We are sorry to add tbs
while few of these plantation sovereigns hau
failed to exercise this prerogative, we neye
have heard of an instance in which the diyoro
was made for the benefit of the parties but Ia
variably for the qualification or the convenient
or the caprice of the sovereign master.

sentative of free principles at the National Cap
ita and to the family of its late editor as their
only available means of support, makes it my
imperative duty to continue its publication
without interruption.
