The National Democratic party of New
Mexico to show their devotion to the institu-
tons OF Democracy have, through their Leg
islature, adopted a system of laws for the
protection Of slave property in that Terri
tory.
The laws Of Mexico abolished slavery in
that Territory, and the only negro that has
ever entered the Territory since its accession
to the United States was recently killed by
the Indians. 1t is, therefore, plain that these
laws were enacted as decarative Of the Dem
ocratic creed, and for the purpose Of encour-
aging the immigration of Shareholders and
slaves and to exclude laboring white mea.
The Democratic creed, as declared by
the President, by Congress, and by Chief
Justice fancy, is, that the soil OF the United
States is reserved for the growth Of slaves,
and laboring white men must be excluded
from it as far as practicable.

The colored people Of Washington last
evening presented Mr.. Giddings with beau

in token Of their appreciation Of his services
in Congress n their defence. If were Mr..
G. should consider this presentation Of
more value, as a compliment, than the costly
service Of plate presented by his fellows Of
the dominant race. II reminds me Of Lord
Brougham, who was one day met by An Afri-
can in the busy strand Of London. The ne
gro was an utter stranger, but seized his
hand, exclaiming: s'In the name Of my race
| thank you for your noble efforts in behalf
OF emancipation ia the West Indies and the

The Nebraska Kansas bill has been most
destructive political engine, and its powers
are not ct all diminished, but grow more fa-
tai in their effects every day.
Upon its first introduction into Congress it
knocked the last breath out Of the old Wing
party; it killed pierce's Administration
, throttled every Democratic aspirant for the
Presidency in the United States, and forced
the party to take up the American Minister
at the British Court. 1t Stayed about score
of Democratic Senator'S and thrice as many
Representatives from the free States; be-
headed FIVE Democratic Governors of Kan
sas, and has now, in its re. action, knocked
the sand from under its authors feet, and is
rapidly crushing the harmonious life out of
the National Democratic party itself.
CO The Paris correspondent Of the N. y.
