4. Rcsolred That neither Congress
nor Territorial Legislature, whether
by direct Legislation or legislation of an
indirect and unfriendly character, pos
sess power to annul or impair the con-
stitutlonal right Of any citizen Of the
United States to take his slave property
into the common Territories, and there
hold and enjoy the same while the Ter
ritorial condition remains.
). ReSelpea. That If experience
should at any time prove that the ju-
dicial and executive authority docs not
possess means to insure adequate pro-
lection to constitutional rights in Ter
ritory. and if the Territorial Govern
meut should fail or refuse to provide
the necessary remedies for that purpose,
it will be the duty Of Congress to sup
ply such deficiency.
6. Resolred, That the inhabitants of
a Territory of the United States, when
they rightfully form constitution to
be admitted as State into the Union,
may then for the first time, Ike the
people of State, when forming new
constitution, decide for themselves
whether slavery, as domestic institu-

T. Reso1red, That the provision of
the Constitution for the rendition Of flu

ton by the highest judicial authority,
,eould be honestly andfaithfully observ-
ed and maintained by all who enjoy the
benefit ofour compact of Union; and
that all acts Of individuals or Of State
to defeat the purpose, or
1ullify the requirements of that provis-
'n and the laws made in pursuance Of
t, are hostile in character: .ubversivc
# the Constitution, and revolutionary
n their effect.

A the session Of 1887, and 8,
we think, Mr.. Calhoun offered
his famous resolutions in the i. S.
Senate, (the first two of which

Of Mr. Davis yet no democrat
urged such an objection against
them az that that great statesman
was constructing a platform for
the democratic party or applying
