Ths slave eeds., wnl.e ana n,aek

By the laws prevailing in New Mexico
when that Territory was acquired by the
United States, Slavery had been abolished
and the land was free from the curse Of hu-
man bondage. Under the joint operation of
the bred Scott decision and Squatter Sow.
ereignsy that land has been converted into q
wide spread slave empire, where white as
we'll as black men are objected to the stripes
of master.
The following letter, addressed by the Del.
egate from that Territory in Congress to q
citizen of New Mexico, will show that this
slave code was prompted and urged upon the
people by Federal Influences at Washington

ton as that in Iowa2 Yet such is Demo
cratic treatm emit for debtors in New Mexico,
and at the lest session every Democratic
member of Congress voted againsta bill for
the repeal OF that law, although the power
TO annul all laws passed by the Legislature
Congress in the organic act. The bill, how
ever, passed the House Of Representatives
against the united vote of both wings OF the
Democracy. Ii went TO the Democratic Sem
ate, whore it was defeated, Of course. And
Stephen A. Douglas has since declared that
be never will vote for the repeal of the laws
which establish and regulate Slavery in New
Mexico.
Now, we understand from the National
Democratic Platform that Democratic prin-
ciples are the same everywhere and at all
times and we shall not be at all surprised
to see them put in practice over the poor
whites of the South in few years, and over
the North, toe, IL ever Democracy should
again get into the ascendant here.
The African Slave Code of New Mexico is
similar-though rather more severe in its
provisions-to those prevailing in the South
ern States, and the D0pcrats in Congress
voted with like unanimity against its repeal;
and Douglas is down on the record in favor
of it, and in grand boast that bis princi
pie of non intervention extended the area of
Slavery over that region-f FIVE times the size
of New York.

The Convention.

Thesucccss of the Convention movement, in
this State, is gratifying to those who originated
it. Every district in the State, except Kershaw,
O;nngeburg, Collcton, Beaufort and Williams
burg, will be represented by delegates, untram-
mcled in any way. 1t is to meet in Columbia
ON tho 18th. The oa')rt to saddle DouGLAs on
tue Convention party has failed, except with
those who hutter when the -NsycWy flaps its
wings. Tho conventionsts are opposed tn
DoUGLAs' Squattcr Sovereignty notions, and
have con1omocl his detection to the party on
tile admission of Kansas and support of the
President and his administration. South Caro-
lima Will go into the Charleston Convention to
secure the nomination of Col. ORn, her favorte
son; and, failing in that. to get the most ac-
ceptablo man in the democratic ranks. The
contest for the Presidency will be between the
democratic and black republican candidates.
Wh2 can, therefore, hesitate "a to which he
will choose for candidate. md likewise to
whom he will give his support?

Free Schools.

We see in print the statement that the Commits
sioners of Free Schools, for Pickcns district have
"forbiddcu all teachers, for whom they have loca-
ted schools, the intcmperate use of Intoxicating
liquors" The legitimate inference to be drawn
from this, il, that heretofore the Commissioners
hayo been lax in their duty. This is unjust to
those who have heretofore faithfully served ns
Commissioners without the hopo of fec re-
ward The truth is, no new regulation of this
kinl has been made by the Board, the assertion
above to the contrary notwithstaur ng.
According to the old rule of the Board the
teacher must come recommended as "man of
good moral chnracter and of sober and industrious
habits" The benign influence porvnding the Dis
