infamous Lecompton Constitution upon the
protesting people of Kansas; in constituting
the personal relation between master and
servant to involve an unqualified property in
persons; in its attempted enforcement, every
where, on land and sea, through the interven-
ton Of Congress and # the Federal Courts,
of the extreme pretentions ola purely local
interest; and in its general and unvsrying
abuse Of the power intrusted to it by con-
fding people.
6. That the people justly view with alarm
The reckless extravagance which prevades
every department of the Federal Government;
that return to rigid economy and nccounta-
bility is fndispenssble to arrest the systematic
plumber Of the public treasury by favored
partisaps while the recent startling devel-
opments of frauds and corruption at the Fed
eral Metropolis, show that an entire change
of administration is imperatively demanded.
Z. That the newd6gnfa that the Constitution,
Of its own force, carries slavery into any or
Ill of the Territories of the United States, is
dangerous political heresy; at varieDce with
he explicit provisions of that instrument
itself, with contemporaneous exposition, and
with legislative and judicial precedent; is
revolutionary in it's tendency, and su'versive
Of the peace and harmony Of the country.
8. That the normal condition ofall the ter
ritory of the United States is that Of freedom:
That as our Republican fathers when they
had abolished slavery in all our national ter
ritory, ordained that "no person should be de-
prived of life liberty, or property, without
due process Of law" it becomes orr- duty, by
legislation, whenever such legislation il nee
essary, to maintain the provision of the Con-
stitution against all attempts to violate II;
we deny the authority Of Congress. OF terri
torial Legislatures, or Of any individuals, to
give legal existence to slavery in any Terri
tory Of the United States.
8. That we brand the recent re-opening of
the African Slave Trade. under, the cover of
our National Flag, aided by perversions of
judicious power, as crime against humanity
and burning shame TO our country and age;

+ Saturday Morning. October e. 1850 / !
The market generally has been inactive during
the past week, but the operations in Cotton form
an important exception to the remark, the sales Of
that staple having considerably exceeded those Of
any previous week during the season. In Tobacco
the transactions have been on quite limited SCALE
and in Sugar and Molasses continued reduction
in the supplies affords no scope for anything be-
yond small local business. Flour and Grain have
been dull, with further decline in the rates for
the latter, and in Provisions but little more than
limited retail business has been done. The move
ment in Freights has been to fair extent without
any material change in rates.
Yesterday morning we published the North
Americans adyices embracing Liverpool dates
to the 21st ult., and the Canada's still one day
later They reported sales of 81 600 bales of Cot
ton for the week, with no change of any moment
in prices. Fair Orleans was quoted at It'd. and
Middling Orleans at 6sd. The adyices from Man
chester were favorable, prices generally being well
maintained. The stock Of Cotton at Liverpool was
stated at 955,0G0 bales, of which 100000 were
American. At Havre the weeks sales embraced
1s5 900 bales. 0rleas Tres Ordnaire was quoted
at 93 francs. The Connaught's accounts will be
found in another column.
CoTToN. ;. The week opened with fair enquiry,
which however was checked by the difficulty in
passing Exchange, and the sales of Saturday and
Monday together embraced some 1900 bales at
easy prices for the Middling and Lower grades,
without any quotable alteration. On Tuesday Q
heavy storm of wind and rain prevailed throughout
the day, notwithstanding which some buyers
entered the market and took about 10000 bales,
the demand being stimulated by apprehensions
that the storm had extended into the interior, with
damage to the crop. On Wednesday holders claimed
very full prices, and the business fell off to 5000
! bales, but on Thursday purchasers were found for
1O,5oO bales, with Improvement Of fully lc o fb
in the rates for the Medium grades. Yesterday
| about 5000 bales were sold, making total for
the week of about 900 bales, the market closing
| firm at our quotations as follow

1HE COLLEGE FLEET.-'Hhe new college
boat arrived yesterday, as was expected, and
attracted much attention during the half hour
that 1t was exhibited upon The bridge So
much interest is felt in the achievements of
students with their club boats and Wineries.
that we take this occasion to give list and a
description ofthe boats in the Brown fleet"
The Brunonia, 1.-THE new boat, college shell,
40 feet long, 26 inches broad, pulls six oars,
weight about 40 pounds, made OF Spanish ce
dar, built by Mackay of williamsburg, L. l.
She is pulled by a crew selected from the
whole college. She has been built expressly
for the college regatta, which is to place in
July next, probably at Worcester. A new
boat house Tor her accommodation has lust
been fms ed near Red Bridge, at an expense
OF two hundred dollars, which sum was sub
scribed by members of the various classes in
college.

long, "A inches wide, weight 60 pounds, owned
by two members of the Sophomore class.
The ATLANTA, 6 oars, 43 feet, owned by
the University Boat Club
The Quickstep, oars, SO feet, owned by
members of the class OF 49,
Two single scull boats one owned by a resi-.
dent graduate, and one by member of the
senior class.
1t will readily be believed that a deep inter.
est is felt by the young men in boating. We
are glad to learn that more attention is now
paid to other kinds OF athletic exercises than
used to be given to them in the days of most
of our readers who have received the colegi.

accomplished so much without these modern
advantages, who can tell what we should have
accomplished with them We trust that our
young friends may find good health, good
times, and all the glory they desire in their va.
riOus boats.
