principal one being the Insertion Of the Wilmot

III cstand-out advocate Of Squatter Sovereignty,
led the opposition to these bills, and for once in
his life was found in close and raterna association
with the EXTREMIST fire eaters Of the South.
There were other points Of objection, too, hav-
ing scarcely less weight than the one we have men
toned, Iwas declared that some of these Terri
tories proposed to be organized were far beyond
the ontside limits Of white settlement, and had
scarcely any permanent white population. The

rather too absurd to be entertained. This is de-
feet which, 1t il true, woud soon be cured for q
Territorial Government involves perfect army of
useless Federal holders and dependents, and
the expenditure of ayast amount Of Treasury gold.
And where the carcass IL, there will the eagles be-
| gathered together. Several of our organized Ter
Iritories and new States we're quickly populated,
not so much BY reason Of the attractions of soil or
climate, as BIZ the contemplation Of the steady
stream Of Federal money which, III various cham

of the Government. But even the potent consid-
Grafton Of the patronage which these bills would
have conferred on the President failed to propit-
ate the enmity of the Democratic representatives.
And 50 all the propositions five in number
were quietly laid upon the table. This IS d final
disposition Of them for the present sessions re-
suit not at all objected to by the Republican en-
gineers who brought them forward. The whole
thing, indeed, was political 2 dodge expe-
dent to commit the shaky members of the Black
Republican party, by the public authority Of
Congressional record, to the principle Of nteryen
ton. and the plenary powers Of Congress over the
Territories. That object has been accomplished
and the Cheyalier Grow, the Chairman Of the
Committee, is now perfectly content and satisfied.
The bills will sleep upon the table, in undisturbed
repose, until the clerical Forney, at the close Of
tile session, shall bundle them away in some OF the
dusty pigeon-holes of his back office.
As for the people Of the nnorganzed Terrific

We suppose the best thing they can do, in default
of Congressional guardianship is to fall back upon
their original rights, like the California miners,
and reduce to actual practice old General Cass'
famous doctrine Of popular sovereignty. The old
General ii about MT tile end OF his political career,
and it would be satisfaction to him, no doubt to
see the experiment made Of Independent seIf.gov-
eminent, no matter upon how small scale. The |
Pixies Peakers, we believe, have already taken
some steps In this direction, butwe are unable to
say whether the prospect is promising, or the re-
verse; If the doctrine of one wing Of the Demo- |
cratic party be correct-to-Wit, that organized |
Territories may legislate for themselves prn-
ciple may be extended little farther, and the |
people Of unorganized Territories be allowed the
same privilege.
