SLAVERY INTO TERRITORIES IMPOSSIBLE
II the national democracy offer to the South we
know they offer what they cannot gve do not mean
TO try give The history of Kansas is too recent and
too Instructive, in which the most violent pro
slavery democrats as they prolssed themselves, after
getting men and money from the South by hundreds and
by thousands TO save Kansas the South suddenly be-
came free democrats when they found doubtful
under tho proslavery banner, and sought office free
democrats, unbushingly declaring that slavery never
had been an Issue in Kansas The principle Of
ter sovereignty, has rendered the introduction
Of slavery into Territories mpossble and the passage
that bill Is the work Of the national democracy Mr. Bates
merely holds as principle that which the democracy
have established fact Tho question of slavery
tension no longer before tho people 1t is discussed
Mr.. Bates does believe slavery to BIO a wise and
useful nstituton he is opposed to its extension into
Territories already freehe nevertheless just as firmly
adheres TO the rights Of property in slaves In all States
where slavery exists and will just far protect tho
rights Of States in that species OF property long
those States choose to keep it, as any man living.
PRINCIPLE FUGITIVE SLAVE LAW.
Mr. Bates believes in the unqualified right Of the owner
to recover his slaves if they escape free State aud if
President, he would the Fugitive Slave law II the
army and navy Of the government were equal TO the
task. And If the Fugitive Slave law should be re-
pealed, should be found inadequate to the service
Of returning absconding slaves to their masters Mr.
Bates would urgently recommend to Congress pass
some law that more certainly and more accepaby
carry out tue constitutional guarantees Of the rights
Southern Shareholders He would consider the Union
broken compact these plain guarantees by
confederacy.
If Congress clearly representing the will of the country
should pass laws egalzng and protecting slave property
those laws az promptly any other laws the land f
territory should organize into State with sufficient
population to justify its admission and present cons
tuition ,oerapg slavery Mr. Bates would oppose the
admission Of such State because had proslavery
stution.

His creed is, that every state has right say how
much i wants of African slavery and how long it
it. and how to get rid OF it when its people Of it,
He docs not regard it perpetual institution but as in
its very abnormal and evauescent changing rapid
y under the influence of climate commerce, civilization
religion laws. He knows (and is glad to know ) that
Missouri IS rapidly becoming free State and he does
deporc the fact that it is by transportation and by
emancipation, that the State is so rapidly be-
coming free; for he knows that the emancipa-
ton OF slaves to remain in this country and mix with the
whites Is ahhorren an intoerabe And to send them
abroad By sudden and total exoius is beyond means
OF any government. What is beyond his own wisdom he
leaves to the nscruabe aud infinite wisdom OF
The rapid ana peaceful extinction Of slavery that is going
in Missouri without the aid Of emancipation parties
and without the heat and acrimony OF domestic dscord
entirely in accordance with tue views aud feelings Of Mr.
Bates While Mr. Bacs is glad slavery declining
In Missouri, other strong oppostonsts sorry to wit
ness the same.
BEYOND REACT OF pg,aGoGuEs-rExE LABOR BOUND

Mr. Bates finds of discord between himself and
that prosavery neghbor of this difference: for
he knows that neither the joy OF the nor the sorrow Of
the other will quicken delay the inevitable consuuna
ton that ahead Mr. Bates regards the fate Of slavery
as out OF the domain OF demagogesuery beyond their
reachand inpeed by that power that brings the times
and seasons To their appointed course and rolls up the
heavens as scroll when He has done with the wondrous
panorama BY his own example he has shown that he
prefers TO live by his labor and the labor OF
slaves But he claims to be- in this particular only "a
law unto himself"
THE NECESSITY or PROCURING FOR COLO

lie would never, under any circumstances, countenance
national organizati N having in view the interference
with slavery in the States The entire function Of tho Fe

should be to protect it where ii -not extend where
i is not-and far policy and ability may allow 10
help those States get clear Of that may wish to do So by
the procurement of foreign territory suitable the ready
greveus nuisance every State of Union both free
and slave. This is national nuisance should begin
TO ind national remedy The policy already preached
in some States Of selling again into slavery free blacks
whom humane grateful masters have orancipa.ed un
less those freed persons leave the State-when
the slave States and many OF the Free prohibit their en-
trance within their limits under heavy penalties is the
highest degree, cruel II is barbarous And it would
disgrace the American the face Chrisen
