FRIDAY MORNING, SEPT. 7th. 1850.

Senator Toom5s did not stand by his deciaya-
tions made less than year since, but Douglas
has stood by those made by him on Popular
Sovereignty AMI non Intervention for the past
t.ei'e -e.iS-4Sae. Union.
Tbs Onion forgcts point or two Il is too
hsssy in declaring Mr.. Douglas has stood by
his declarations Popular Sovereignty and
hcE-irterTcntion for the last twelve years.
Tie history Of tho times will not prove it.
NJ. Dorgiaf, it will be remembered. made
strenuous ez"rtioa to have the iecompton Con-
stitution submitted to direct vote of tao peo-
pie Of Kansas, and denounced all who opposed
suck srbEissicn as traitors to the Kansas Ne
trssks kill and the Cincinnati llatferIn. But it
rrrst be remembered, when Senator Toombs
trcrght forward his bill for tho pacifcation of
Kansas in June 1855, there vas provision in
IL for the ratification of the constitution By the
HscYlA Mr.. Dougls, was at that time chair
nAa Of the CsnHi.tec on Territories Toombs
bill vas c.s-red 10 the Committee. Five days
aAe,vsri Is M. Douglas reported bill for the
came object, and strange to say, he used the
sams language as that in the 18th section Of
Toombs bill, with the remarkable difference that
the provision for rstifyiag the Constitution by
the people was stricken out So much for
Douglas standing by his declarations in this
ease.
In 1883, in his contest with lincoln, at Free
port, he said, no matter if the Supreme Court
decido slavery may 20 into y Territory under
the Constitution, the right of the people is per-
faCf aDd npIa ~,
exclude it. Now he stands upon a platform
committing him to an obedience 10 the Supreme
Court.
Suppose Mr.. Douglas wore elected President
and the people of Territory should assert their
rights as he declared them at Frecport in Au-
gust, 1858. Suppose the Supreme Court to
have decided that the people of a Territory have
no right TO Interfere with slavery. What course
will the President take-obey the Supreme
Court and order the army of the United States
20 crush the people in their efforts to maintain
The rights he has asserted, Is there no incon-
Hstehcy here? He asserts in Que case the
prohibition of Slavery in Territory belongs to
the people; and again that it is question to be
decided by the Supreme Court.
Mr.. Douglas and his adherents assail Mr.
Brcckinridge and his party, asserting that the
latter arc in favor Of slave code for the Terri
tories. And yet Mr.. Douglas himself says that
il the Constitution carries slavery into Terrific
rios Congressional slave code for its protection
isinsvtable, is and that every honest legislator is
bound by his oath to enact i. The Supreme
Court has already given its opinion on the ques-
tion, and it is to the effect that slavery goes in
To the Territories. Mr..Douglas agrees to abide
by the decision rhen il conles and, therefore. as
a. honest man, bound by his oath of Office
must favor in the Senate Congressional slave
code. Docs Mr.. Douglas stand by his decIara-
lions!

Constitutional ConventisM.

The question of a revision of the Constitution
Is again, for the third time, to be submitted to
the decision of the people at the polls in No
vember. 1t is question which more vitality
concerns the taxpaying citizens of the State
than any other. The excitement, however At
tending Presidential election, has completely
orerslaushed the question altogether, so that
The fact that vote is to be taken upon it is
scarcely known among the body of the people.
But other questions which haze risen to over
.'Snow tne one OF Constitutional change. do
not diminish the real Importance Of the last
1t is as great question now as it has been, and
must not be overlooked or forgotten.
Whether We are to go ON squanderinc mil
hon year to support cumbrcus government
with its focks of cormorants in every depart
msnt, or, whether taxes are to be rsdaeed, debts
wiped out, and econony inaugurated in the
state government, is the issue Under the pre.
ent Constitution, it has been shown, numerous
officers are unnecessary; the Legislature is too
large and expensive, or it meets too often; sala
rios established in the flush times of lS49. are
found too great; the Supreme Court is too
email to dispose of the increasing Judicial bust
ness in a satisfactory manner
The sum which might be saved annually by
changing the Constitution to a more economi
cal one, svariously estimated, but it is safe to
cay one hundred thousand dollars a year at
least This sum could not only be saved but
by lessening the spoils public and private
morality would be increased. Corruption does
not exist to any great extent when the emolu-
ulents of Office are few
In consideration, then, of the purses of tax
payers, of the debt of the State, of public and
srivate morality, and the ultimate good of the
Commonwealth, every voter should have upon
his ballot in November, "For Constitutional
Convention" and no one is true to his country
AID himself who docs not SO vote Mt the next
election.
