Singular Position.

The Sacramento standard contends that
there is no constitutional power in Congress
over the Territories; that the trainers Of the
Constitution never contemplated the estab-
llshment Of Territorial Governments and
failed to invest Congress with any power
over the subject "The question, it says, lis
to be settled by considerations of policy
alone"
The Standard therefore admits that the
Lecomption faction have no right to demand
Congressional intervention for the protection
Of slavery in the Territories, as a constitu-
tional right Congressional Intervention or
non-interyentior tch il, is mere matter of
policy with which the Constitution has no.
thing to do.
One would suppose, then, that the Stand
ard would be content to allow the Demo-
cratic party to determine its own policy,
either for or against Intervention. Nothing
of the kind. 1t must dictate to the National
Convention, or bolt. 1t insists that aminori
ty of the Convention must construct the
platform and that the majority must acqui-
esce in their decision
Now, there is some excuse for those men
who believing, that the Constitution gives
Congress power TO protect slavery in the
Territories, insist upon the extension of that
protection as a constitutional right; but what
shall we say of that dictatorial spirit which
conceding that it is a mere question of poll
ey, refuses to submit to the policy which is
declared by a majority of the party? Es
pecially so, too, when the almost universal
sentiment of the party, North and South,
until within comparatively recent period,
has been in favor of that same policy? The
great majority of the party are still in favor
Of the same policy, claiming that, inasmueh
as the Constitution gives no power TO Con-
gress to regulate slavery in the Territories,
it should rest in the people of the Territories
themselves Nothing certainly could be
fairer, and, if it is policy only that is to be
eonsidered-in the name of all common sense,
is not this the true polcyY
Those powers which are not expressly
granted to the Federal Government in the
Constitution, nor prohibited to the States,
are reserved to the States respectively or the
people The STANDARD says 10 power over
the question Of slavery in the Territories is
granted to the Federal Government. AS a
matter OF course, then, the power is reserved
to the people; and all that the recently
adopted platform at Charleston determines, is.
that the people shall exercise this power.
1t seems TO US that the Standard, in aban
doning all claim to intervention as a Con-
stitutonal right, surrenders the whole ground
Of argument for, if we refer to policy it is
the majority of the party always who are to
determine its policy, and if we refer to the
Constitutional aspect of the QUESTION, the
admission that there is no power of the kind
delegatedt to Congress in the Constitution,
necessarily comedies that it is reserved to the
people, or there is no power anywhere.

FATAL RAILROAD AccIDEST-We learn

ESCAPE OF A LIFE MEMBER OF THE WISCONSIN
pEs1rENTIARY.- Frederick Shurtz, convict for
life in the Wisconsin State Prison. made his escape
one night recently. The manner of his exit is
thus described by cotemporary:
He drilled holes in his lock and sprung the bolt
with wire, while the keepers were feeding the
prisoners in another CELL and before the iron bars
were put up outside the door. He had previously
torn his bed tick to strings, and formed rope
with which he let himself from the roof to the
grated windows, and thus reached the ground.
In the present unfinished state of the prison, he
then found no difficulty in watching and sezing an
opportunity to reach the outside.
