REPLY OF SENATOR DAVIS TO Mr.. DOUGLAS
The response of Col. Davis to Senator Douglas
completely demolishes all the sophistical posi-
tions taken by the Illinois Senator. We have
not space for bis speech to-day, but shall pub
lish it entire when We receive full report. As
. sample Of the way Mr. Douglas meets issues
presented to him, we may mention that when
Col. Davis asked him whether, If President, he
would sign bill for the protection Of southern
men in their slave property in the Territories,
he declined to respond. He said it would be
time enough to answer the question when he
got to be President. So il Mr.. Seward were
asked whether, If elected President, he would
use bis Office to abolish 'slavery'' in the States,
he might, with the same justice and reason,
reply, "wait until get to be President, and
will tell you" We had always supposed that
the people were sovereign and had right to
employ such agents to carry out their principles
as they knew beforehand would do it. What,
we ask, becomes Of Mr.. Douglass doctrine Of
popular sovereignty" If the people are to be
denied the right to question their candidates
