REPRESENTATIVE MEN.
All of this we have done and this has increased that
party asper.y and induced men 20 take sdes with the
party in power and Of the meaDest men in the
country will get the offices that principle the little
executive Offices and the little ministerial offices. That
is what We have all done. Let quit it, Let us see

representative was treated with contempt for they
thought he was the best man We had.
That is what you should do. L would not be very
particular about his politics either for our domestic
politics have very little to do with our foreign mis-
.ions The man who would select Judge of the Su-
pre- ne Court Circuit Court of the United States to
discharge the great duties of that station because ne
was Democrat or Republican, without reference to
other qualifications, his head ought to roll upon
block. judicial qualifications have to do with this
thing; they decide matters of Law, not measures OF
policy.
COLOR CONSIDERED.
Some, beside my friend refenipg TO Mr.. Moore Of
Kentucky, Congressman elect, who was on the pla,-
form are familiar with the topics that am now golug
to discuss. The only object had in view in calling
him to the stand, was that you might see that they
have been called " Black Corwin about long enough

many men that We shall meet there. Continued
laughter.
THE POWER OF CONGRESS.
The opposition TO the Admin ,Iaton on the other
side of the river have been chiefly concerned IN dis
pute a. TO what shall be done with the slave property
pf the South You have heard what friend Dennison
has said He Gays il il the doctrine aud resoluie de-
termination of the Republican party OF Ohio and ne
might ave added, OF all of what are called the Free
s. ates of the Union, to exert the power which they
hold belongs to them, under the Constitution Of the
United States, by Congressional action TO prohibit
Slavery in any Territory where Slavery does no. al
re- adv exist Ny own impression is that that ought to
be done That Is my belief about it.
/ am not so very particular about this, as mere
matter of doctrine because think that there Will be
much more important duties for US 10 perform when
we get TO Congress than dispute about this abstract
proposition Slavery exists you know, in certain
portions of the United States. The only Territories
hi can ever be subject Slavery those o. Utah,
