The Know Nothing press is IN the
daily practice Of charging that the
party which neminated Breckenridge
and Lane is asectional party. This
we deny most positively. The plat
form Of the party is not sectional,
the candidates nominated sre not
from one section, nor WAS the con.
veption that nominated them COM
posed of delegates from only one
section. If the party that nomina-
ted the truly national men, Breckin-
ridge ard Lane, be a sectional party,
every other party known in the
the contest is sectional, some o.
them extremely SO. Could We find nc
party with which to act but a sec
iional party we would always aot Will
and for our own section rather thar
to GO with party against our ovl
section. s&s

Definitions.

The following definitions are not
to be found in the abridged dic!ion-
aries generally used:
Intervention. for Congress to de-
eide that negro slavery shall not
exist in certain sections Of the Union
The passage of the Missouri com.
promise was an example of it.
Non.interusntion, permission by
the government to any and every
territory when it forms a eonstitu.
ton preparatory to being received
into the Union as a State, to decide
on the subject of slavery for itself;
that is, Congress shall not rcqnirs Of
such territory constitution protect
ing, ror prohibiting slavery but leave
the subject to the decision Of the
voters Of the territory themselves.
Sqaatter Sovereignty, a power
claimed by the first two or three
wild adventurers who get into a
territory to decide against tbe right
Of shareholders who may come after
them to hold their slaves as property
in the territory. II they decide
against the institution Of slavery,
their decision is sustained. If they
decide in favor. Of slavery, as was
the case recently in New Mexico, a
black republican Congress at once
declares their act q nullity. =
Protection, is the shield which
the general government, as the agent
Of the several. States, throws around
every citizen, defending him in his
right to hold property in the common
TERRITORY until.the. territory becomes
a sovereign State by bfing formally
admitted into the confederacy. with a
REPUBLICAN constitution OF IFS own.
Protection to property in a terri
tory is not inconsistent. with permls-
siou to form a constitution, at the
proper time. by the voters OF that
territory, either protecting or pro-
hibiting slavery; only that no law
can be passed destroying the right OF
individual property Mu,f. News

Members of Congress in a I'reaica'
n,cnt after Death.-The Dtsers'
News, Of May 9, contains a cona'
municatiou frcn Elder hyde in
relation TO the Congressional bill
for the punishment Of polygamy.-
lie says:
What "terrible fix" some ol
our priestly members Of Congress
will be in when they die and are
carried by the angels to Abraham &
bosom. Abraham, Of course, is
their fsther, aud when they find
Sarah leaning on one arm and Hagar
upon the other, being in such close
proximity to and so mixsd up with |,

the old gentleman Of his errors, his
corruptious, and his wickedoess,
Tbo old father won't stand this,
but administer them a good trash,
ing. telling them to keep their noses
cl an and mind their own business,
he will, NEST likely, regard such
AS illegitimate children; for, if they
were his legitimate Children they
would do the works Of Abraham;
and one portion Of his work was
to take unto himself more than
one wife. '@'
Thereupon the editor Of the
News SAYS it il not supPosabie
c,so that any member Of Congress
who favors the bill will ever be
carried into a Abraham's bosom.

derance of free States sufficient to
change the federal constitution, and
abolish negro slavery entirely in
the government. The doctrine of
Dir. Lincoln is that a house diyi.
ded cannot stand. that govern
ment embracing free States and
slave States cannot. eudnre, and to
preserve the Union, slavery must
be abolished.
The squatter democrats, or Doug
las faction, deny the power of the
federal government to protect the
slave holder in bis right to bis
slaves, and that a territorial legis-
lature may make laws to keep ne-
gro slavery out Of the public do,

The Lone Star or San. Jacinto

With them.
The party calling itself the Tn,

opinions Of any kiSd. 1t holds
to any thing, every thing, noth-

dangerous Of sll things, and that to
hold no opinions is the only way
to svoid it. As they ignore sll
