Non Intervention

The Kenosha Democrat last week.
published extracts from the Kansas Ne
braska Act, for the purpose, we suppose,
of giving an exposition of Douglas
Popular Sovereignty. The Kansas
Nebraska Act contains the following
clause on the subject of slavery:
cit being the true intent and meaning
OF this act, not to legislate slavery into
any Territory or State, nor to exclude it
therefrom, bat TO leave the people there
OF perfectly free to form and regulate
their own institutions in their own way,
subject only to the Constitution of the
United States"
Now superficial readers may take it
for granted, that the above does confer
on the people of Territory the right,
either to establish or to reject slavery,
as they may deem proper. But is this
so or is it mere sham? We have
repeatedly asked the friends of Doug
las the question Has a Territorial
Legislature the constitutional right to
abolish slavery or to prohibit its intro
duction into Territory? Thus far no
one has ventured a distinct answer.
Hence we infer no follower of Douglas
will assert that Territorial Legisla-
ture has a right to abolish or prohibit
the introduction of slavery. If this be
so, is not the doctrine of Popular Sow
ereignty, a specious yet unmitigated
humbug?

"A Terrible Tornado i'm Central
New Work.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, August love
have accounts Of most destructive tor
nado that swept through the towns of
W alworth, Walden and Sodus, in
Wayne county, doing frightful damage
to every shing in it's way. Houses were
unroofed, barns demolished, trees torn
up by the roots, completely devastating
a large section Of country. Its path
was over two miles wide, and was
nearly straight line from Walworth
to about the centre of the town Of So
dus, when it suddenly turned toward
Lake Ontario, which it probably struck
not far from Sodus Point. Our inform
ant came from Sodus village, and tells
us that the south part of that town pre-
sents the most frightful spectacle he
ever witnessed. Extensive tracts of
woodland were leveled with the ground,
and large orchards completely uprooted.
Scarcely rod of fence is left standing
throughout the whole district over
which the whirlwind passed. In some
cases fence rails were carried more than
thirty rods by the terrific force of the
wind. Trees more than two feet in
diameter were twiscted into splinters.
We have not yet heared of any lives
being destroyed, but it will be a mar
vel if there be none. The trees are
fallen in all directions, showing that it
was a whirlwind and not a gale. 1t
was accompanied by tremendous
storm of rain and hail. 1t extended at
least fifteen or twenty miles.

A MAGNIFICENT STREET.--A New
Orleans correspondent of the Charleston
Mercury writes as follows
"The improvements on Canal street
are still continuing, and when finished
it will be the most magnificent in the
United States, if not in the world-be>
ing eightmiles in length, extending from
tho Mississippi river to Lake Ponchar-
train, and nearly 200 feet wide, with a
parterre promenade in the center OF 40
feet in width. At all the grand cross
Iings monuments or fountains are to be
erected. Already Gray's monument
stands at the junction of st. Charles
and Canal, and it is now proposed to
erect a splendid monument TO Fulton,
to be placed at the head of the street,
fronting the Mississippi. The design,
I learn, has already been made and ac
cepted by the city. The street is our
promenade, and the fashionable side is
crowded every evening"

Politics in New York

Whatever hopes the Douglas men ev-
er had of carrying New York, must now
be entirely Gissipated. Since the hold
ing of the Breckenridge convention at
Syracuse, it has become apparent, that
there is no possible hope of fusion be-
tween the two factions of the Demoe-
racy. Moreover, the Syracuse conven.
ton has revealed the fact, that the
breckenridge party embraces a large
number of the most distinguished Dem
ucratic leaders in the State, and thai
the vote for the Breckinridg electora
will be nearly, if not quite as formida
bic as the vote for Douglas.

Douglas VS.. Douglas,

1t is hardly probable, there was ever
candidate before the people for any
important office, whose political course
presents such a tumble of strange in
constituencies, as that of Mr.. Douglas.
On the SUBJECT of slavery, he has as
sumed all possible attitudes the ques.
ton is capable of assuming. Take fol-
example the Missouri Compromise
in speech made by Mr.. Douglas at
Springfield, Illinois in 1859, he uttered
the following language =
"1he Missouri Compromise had its
origin IN the hearts ofaU patr50tic men
aoho desired to preserce and oerpetu ate
the blessings Of oar glorious Union
an origin akin to that of tile C0aaStitu
ton of the United States, conceived in
the same spirit Of fraterroal Affection
and calculated to remoUe for eUe,' tht
only danger achich seemed to threaten
at some distant d1y, to Se0er the Socio,
bond Of Union. All the evidence Of
public opinion at that day seemed tc
indicate that THIS COMPROMISE
HAD BECOME CANONIZED IN
THE HEARTS OF THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE AS A SACRED THING
WHICH NO RUTHLESS HAND
WOULD EVER BE RECKLESS
ENOUGH TO DISTURB"
On the 3rd of the present month Of
August, Mr.. Douglas made speech
at Providence:-during the delivery Of
which, he was interrupted by an in
quiry, to which he replied as follows
"My friend over there-friend or
enemy as the case may be-wants to
know something about the Missouri
Compromise. Cheers.] have not
the slightest objection to tell him all he
wants to know upon that question.
