Hon. JAMES s. GREEN IN 1S56.-A ives.
tern paper quotes the following from speech
by Mr.. Green in 1856:
"The fourth resolution Jackson resolu-
tons, March 10, 1852 declares the right OF
the people themselves, inhabitants Of the
Territories, to settle the question of slavery
according to their will and pleasure. The
true principles of Democracy dictate this
resolution. The right of selfgovernment
recognized as the peculiar privilege OF
American citizens, is here declared as appli-
cable to the inhabitants of the Territories.
And what Republican, worthy of the name,
will controvert the truth of this sentiment
II the people there do not desire the institu-
ton IF starery, it ,rould be the toorst of
tyranny to force 1t upon them By Congress-
ional Legislation and it would be equally
tyrannical to interdict slavery, if the people
really desire to have it. They are the best
judges of their own interest.

in showing that we are able, by a natural
ard effective method, to accomplish these
results. l might have spoken of the COM
plications which this Territorial policy is
ever imposing upon the Government, and
Of the dangerous consolidation Of power to
which these complications invariably lead
A Republic never can successfully govern
provinces. Whenever it has attempted to
do it, the history Of the world has shown
that it has not only failed, but it has been
overthrown by that policy. The policy Of
acquiring and Of governing provinces cre-
ates necessity for an army and navy
1t is to make the President of the United
States, to all intents and purposes, king !;
and am, therefore, for abolishing this pol
icy as soon as may be.
You remember, sir, that it was upon this
very mission of acquiring and governing
provinces, that Caesar was in Gaul, when,
returning, he crossed the Rubicon and
overthrow the liberties of his country =
Similar to that has been the history of every
Republic which has attempted to exercise
nonresident ju.isdiction--that has at
tempted to acquire and govern provincial
dependencies. While am willing to annex
sovereigntics at the right time, I protest
against the acquisition of territory, to be
governed or sold by Congress. am for
simplifying the operations of the Govern
ment in respect to the Territories. We
have the land to sell. Let us provide for
selling it but beyond that l would not rec

The Days we Wore no CIinoline.
AIR-'The days ,ce tcent Gipsyiag.''
Oh! the days wore no erin oline,
long time ago;
When We along the streets could walk
In comfort with beau.
Ere hoops and springs, and such like things,
On ladies' forms were seen
Ere fathers raved and husbands stormed
About the crinoline.
Ere wicked wags, with cruel Jokes
Could cause us care or wee
In the days we wore no crinolinc,
long time ago.
Our hearts were light we felt no fright
Through crowds to wend our way;
But nov we're jammed and knocked about
Where'er We chance to stray.
With friends we then could sail in boats,
On streamlets bright and fair,
But now our dresses are so large
There is no room to spare;
And then we hear the rascals say,
at was not always so
In the days they wore crnone,
A long time ago."
We then could pass each country lass
without single sncer;
But now by fashion we're compelled
These horr;d hoops to wear.
Then lovers came with joyous hearts
Our caval ers to be;
To lead US up and down the town,
The things and sights to see.
But now they laugh and run away;
It was not always so
In the days we wore no crinoline,
long time ago.
II ever common sense should reign
Der fashions changing scene,
We then may dress as once VIC did,
And initiate queen.
The men, also, they must adopt
Amore becoming mien;
And If hey will but lead the way,
Farewell to erin oline.
Then we shall wee2 and say
1t was not always so,
In the days we wore no crinoine,
long time ago.
