HON. BERIAH MAGOFFIN.

This distinguished gentleman, the Demo cratic
has seen often and seriously misrepresented by
the papers with regard to his position on the Ter
ritorial question. The following extract from
one of his letters should effeotually silence cal
jimmy, and set him right before the people in
respect Of squatter vereignty. If Mr. Ms
doctrine, below set forth, be not sound and South
ern, then are We ouTsclf unsound:
THAT Congress has the power to protect,
while it cannot prohibit, slavery in the Ter.
ritorics; that the Territorial Legislature, as
its agent, cannot exclude or abolish slavery
directly or indirectly, by unfriendly legisla
ton that such legislation is void, and would
be declared unconstitutional by the Federal
courts that it is the duty of the Territorial
Legislature to protect slave property, and
property Of all kinds; that the rights of
property of all kinds are under the protec-
ton of the Government, the Constitution
and the laws that our rights and remedies
seem to be now complete in the Territories.
aud nothing has occurred to show their mad
equacy; that the Democratic party has
brought us to this position Of safety against
all the efforts of the Opposition, entertaining
different opinions on the subject and form
ing combinations to destroy it; that the
struggles and victories over other parties
have clearly shown that ours is the only
party capable of protecting our rights, or
guarding them in the future; and if it
should be necessary to pass laws to enforce
the DEGREES of the judiciary, or even to call
out troops, that it would be the duty of the
Government TO do So"

That hoary-he6ded old genius and sian,
derer of women, Walter Savage Lander
says that Louis Napoleon ''israising the hopes
of Italy only to lift off her shoulders O
wooden yoke and impose an iron one." But
the old dotard doesn't know what he is talk
ing about. 1t is the policy, as we think it
is the fixed determination, of Louis Napole-
on to keep up his present popularity with
the Italians to the last hour of his life. He
remembers that all his wouldbe assassins
have been Italians, and not to keep faith
with them now would insure his speedy
destruction Qud Nunc.

FOR THE DEMOCRAT


COL. J. j. B. WHITE.
We people out here have been talking about
who ought to be our candidate for the Senate from
this district We have given the Senator for the
last five years to the Mississippi River countiss,
which was liberal and just but some how or
other we are thinking it is our time to have the
counties for berality sufficiently to say they will
concede the Senator from this end of the district.
If SO, then we would suggest the name of Col.
White, He is distinguished and experienced as
a legislator and therefore let us have him.

I'm PAUsING ON MY WAY, JENNIE.
BY CHARLES r.. BUNNE.
I'm pausiDg on my way, Jennie,
And scarce know why do,
Save that the birds so gay, Jennie,
Seem all to sing of you.
A birding on the Bamboo vine
Encores like PaganiAi;
But as if though pet of thine,
Concludes with-Jenniel Jennie
cannot tell thee why, Jennie,
All nature sings thy name;
Nor why l draw anigh, Jennie,
Whene'er l hear the same.
The ripI ling of the waterfall
Had charms to childhood many
Ten thousand notes entranced me all
All paled, save one nOte-Jennie.
The wild blooms careless wave, Jennie,
With thine own tresses blend.
Oh would they Ger my grave, Jennie,
SO gay, so careless bend:
And there the wild birds MARBLE turn
Some natures listener oft.
Him could not tell marble urn
The name in life loved.
Still pausing on my way, Jennie,
With green boughs over me,
And humming DER the lay, Jennie,
The wild birds taught to me;
And wondering how the hours
So swiftly passed away,
And leaflets, birds and flowers
All seem SO sweet to-day.

Col. SINeLEToS-Vely luckily for this tai
enied gentleman he has excited the entire hos
tility of the Lexington Advertiser, In connec
ton with him we had intended to notice the
remarks in the last issue of that paper but
knowing the impossibility of forcing it to fair
argument, we abandoned ourdesign. We will
merely state, however that when we alluded
to the fact that Col. S. possesse ed the "admra
ZION of the opposition" we did not intend our
readers to understand that he had sunk so low
as to deserve or receive the admiration or
praise Of individuals in that party of the Ad-
vertiser stripe, We meant simply that in that
party, as well as all others, the majority, though
they might object to the doctrines inculcated
by particular men, were yet sufficiently liberal
in their views to accord the need of courteous
mention and respect to honesty and merit.
Of course this could not be expected of the
Lexington Advertiser, or any other individual
who is so blnded-or so depraved as to term
such man as Singleton yenal, corrupt, or a
demarogue

The organs ofgthe Black Democracy harp
day after day nponsa passage in the speech Of
Senator Seward at Rochester, in which he states
that there is5an irrepressible conflict between
Freedom and Slavery. Now, that is a very fine
passagein that eat.speech, but tits not equal
to the following, which5will be found in speech
of Henry Clay, uttered in the prime of life, af2
ter he had been candidate for the Presidency.
We give notice to the Black Democracy that
we intend to keep before the people this pas
sage from Mr.. CLAWS great speech, before the
Colonization Society, in january, 1921 So
keep it,before the peoplel that Henry Clay is
the author of the "irrepressible cont1ictn doc

Extract from speech of Henry 0lay, before
ne american Colonization Society, January,
I 1S2T.-See Tenth Annual Report
1--WE are reproached with doing mischief by
the agitation of this question. The society
goes into no household to disturb its domestic
tranquility; it addresses itself to no slaves, to
weaken their obligations of obedience. 1t seeks
to affect no mans property. 1t neither has the
power nor the will to affect the property Of any
one, contrary to his consent. The execution of
its scheme would augment, instead of diminish.
ing the value of the property left behind The
society, composed OF free men, concerns itself
only with the free. Collateral consequences,
we arc not responsible for. 1t is not this socie-
ty which has produced the great moral revolu-
don which the age exhibits What would they,
who thus reproach US, have doneP IL they
would express all tenderness towards Liberty
and ultimate emancipation, they must do more
than put down the benevolent efforts Of this
society. They must go back to the era of
our Liberty and Independence, and muzzle
the cannon which thunders its anr ual Joyous
return. They must revive the slave trade,
with all its train of atrocities They must
suppress the workings of British philan-
thropy, seeking to amcliorate the condi>
ton of the unfortunate West India slaves
They must arrest the career Of South American
deliverance from thraldom They must blow
out the moral lights around US, and extinguish
that greatest tlrch Of all, which America pre-.
sents to a benighted world, pointing the way to
their rights, their liberties, and their happiness
And when they have achieved all these pur-
poses, their work Will be yetincomplete They
must penetrate the human soul, and eradicate
the light of reason and the love of liberty
Then, and not till then, when universal dark
ness and despair prevail, can you perpetuate
slavery, and reprcss all sympathies and all hu.
name aud benevolent efforts among free men,
in behalf of t:lc unhappy portion Of our race
who are doomed to bondage"
