proyal of the acts known as the "Compromise
measures" of 1850, consummated the repea
of that odious restriction called the Missouri
Compromise.
Now in the name of common sense and
sheer justice, can men of the South, IN
view of these facts, arraign the Democratic
party for repeating the Missouri restriction,
and again placing the Southern man with hls
slaves, on an equality in the territories with
the Northern man, with his patent clocks and
wooden nut-meggs? No matter what may
have been the motives which actuated the faith
er of the measure, Mr.. Douglas, it was South
ern measure, which men OF the South of all
parties everywhere asked at the hands OF
Congress and the Democratic party, because
it secured to the South equally with the North
the exercise of the right of settlement with
her institutions, in the common territories from
which she had been unconstitutionally exclude
ed By the Missouri restriction. IL under the
operations of that measure, the South lost
Kansas, it was no faultof the bill itself. That
Kansas failed to obtain admission into the
Union as slave State, the abolitionists may
thank such Southern Opposition menas ] Ohm
BELL, John J. Crittenden, Sam. Houston,
d. Winter Davis, and others, who violating the
known wishes of their constituencies, sided
with the North in that exciting struggle
The Democratic party repealed an unconsti-
tutional statute-lifted the ban of the Federal
Government off the institution of slavery, and
sindicated the rights and equality of the
States. 1t was done in accordance with the
wishes Of the Southern States, and the act was
greeted with but one voice at the South, the
voice of appreciation. The Black Republicans
may condemn the Democratic party forrepeal-
ing the Missouri Compromise /; but the South,
never, without stultfyins herself, and striking
at that party which was then battling,
and is now battling, fo.. her rights, her inter-
ests and her honor.

Another Abduction Case.

We learn that while the family of Col.
Christmas, of this State, were sojourning at
Mrs. Thornton's on Lake Harriet, in Mime
sofa, few weeks since, the premises were in
vaded by the Sheriff, accompanied by band
of rufans, for the purpose of capturing the
servant girl, Eliza slave of Mr. Christmas.
They succeeded. in finding the girl in one
Of the out-houses, where she had taken ref.
uge from the mob. The Sheriff said he had
warrant for her, which he did not exhibit
and took the girl before Judge vanderburgh,
who decided that she was free. The Adolf.
Itionists Immediately gathered around the
slave Of Mr. Christmas, and hurried her Of
from the presence of her owner.

Position of an Old Line Whig.

We take the following extract from cor
respondence of an old line Whig from the
Macon, Georgia, Beacon.
g There are daily evidences of . growing ad-
herence To the rights of the South in all our
exchanges:
Ny policy is for this circumstance to make
Mr.. Breckenridge the choice OF every South
ern State, County and man south of Mason and
Dixon's line and then united South can take
council with the North for the integrity ol
the Constitution and the safety of the Repub-
lie. We lave many friends at the North let
US strengthen them by giving them our united
sympathy and support they could thep poinl
the agricultural and manufacturine men OF
the North to united South; tbsy could di-
rect ship builders and men OF commerce TO
take look at our front; and if any thing Will
reach and check the anti-slavery war-cry that
VIM. n pothing will, then 1T IS sheer non.
sense to talk Of Union. The Union cannot
be preserved with one section in arms against
the other. If it must be dissolved, let it be
done now. / think speak the sentiments of
nine-tenths Of the fathers of the country, when
[ saw that i prefer to be about my little ones
when that hour comes. prefer to place my
body between my household gods and the as

let every man know his brothers place and

time to unite, we have good men. In my
humble judgement, by giving to brecklnridge
and Lana q united Southern vote, we would
settle this vexed question, restore harmony
and peace to the country, renew fraternal Te-
lations with the North, draw closer and render
stronger the bonds of Union, and become the
greatest country the world has ever seen.

United States Supreme Bench-.-The
Vacant Judgeship.

We are somewhat at loss to understand
why there should be any difficulty in filling
this vacancy, from the district to ,ohich it be-
longs. We believe, to every other district in
the United States, this right is conceded.
From the meany learned and able jurists
to be found in the States Of Mississippi and
Arkansas, where the vacancy exists, surely,
some one can be found in all respects compe-
tent. That the President should desire to
cast reflection upon the character or judicial
standing of these two States, we cannot for o
moment suppose. He can have no motive
personal or political, to do them injustice
they have been true to him, true to principle,
true to the Constitution and the country.
Mississippi is almost unrivalled in the sup
port of Democratic principles and Democratic
Statesmen-her whole representation in Con-
gress, present an unbroken front to the ene-
mics of our Constitutional Union whether
in the council chamber in the Halls of Con-
gress or in the battle le-fields-whereyer duty
and patriotism have demanded her service, her
sons have not been found unworthy, or in
competent. Why then should they be longer
excluded from equality in the judicial depart
ment of the Government
OF the young, but not less worthy sister,
Arkansas, quite as much may be said. They
have been represented for long years, by the
lamented Judge Daniel, citizen of distant
State a man wholly unknown to these States,
and not familiar with their laws or people Of
this they have not complained. But now,
when justice, propriety and equality all forbid
it, why should any distant or other sister
State seek to impose another stranger upon
this district We think no man worthy Of
the station and with proper respect for these
States and for himself would allow his name
to be forced upon the President, in opposition
to the wishes Of Arkansas and Mississippi,
and if he does, we hope, we have not to ap-
peal in vain to the justice of Mr.. Buchanan
for equality in this confedation of equal States

JACKSON FEMALE INsTrTUTE.-We are
pleased to learn that the indefatigable Princi-
pal of the jackson Female Institute has full
filled his promise of making his school more
attractive and more deserving of public pat
ronage, than eyer-that he has been visiting
the different institutions Of our country, and
securing the best teachers in all the depart
ments; among others, native French teacher,
educated in Paris, who will be devoted almost
if not quite exclusively. to this department.;
also, teacher of drawing and painting
pupil of the distinguished Sully, whose repu-
tation is worldwide. Largely endowed by
nature for this art, and the pupil from child
hood of such master, the school and commu-
nifty will be peculiarly favored in having such
a teacher. The lady selected as the presiding
teacher is graduate Of Mount Holyoke-an
institution SO well known for making thor
ough scholars, that no higherrecommendatio
is necessary. See advertisement.

Brownat Crystal Springs yesterday was large
ly attended. The crowd numbered about
fifteen hundred, and great enthusiasm was
manifested for Breckinridge aud Lane. The
speech Of Senator Brown was able and elo-

tons to Mr.. Breckinridge's letter Of accep-
tance and the platform upon which be stands,
still Gov. Brown will give the ticket his warm
support. The BelIeverett's who attended
expecting comfort at the hands Of Gov. Brown
returned disappointed. We shall notattempt
to give report ofhis speech as it will soon
be published in full. he was warmly greeted
and frequently applauded.
After partaking Of q fine dinner, the crowd
repaired to the stand and Col Roberts ofCopiah,
briefly addressed the audience. In answer
to calls. Judge Stone, R. H. Purdom, Esq,
and others spoke in behalfof Breckenridge and
Lane. The meeting evinced the fact that

The Issues Presented.

4 ~----1->---
Hon. w. Fl. Seward the very embodiment
and soul of black republicanism, has recently
been making an electioneering trip to Maine,
where be made a number Of speeches. In
Boston, on his way, be had very handsome
reception, and addressed . large crowd from
the balcony of the Revere House. His speech
was extremely radical ON theslaEery question,
enough to suit Garrison and Philips. Hethus
set forth the issues upon which the back re-
publicans are fighting the epresent campaign
l. That they have nominated Abraham Lin
coin as their standard-bea ''confessing the
obligations Of the HIGHER LAW
z. That they are contending '4ior veal or

After bis speech, short addresses were made
BY Senator Wilson and Others, endorsing and
complimenting Mr.. s; his speech has been
published, endorsed and commended by the
black papers-thus proving that be correctly
represented the real doctrines and purposes
Of that party. It win be seen that the war
here declared, is not against slavery extension,
but against slavery in tie States. The "higher

This 'irrepressible conflict" doctrine was an

The Democracy of Adams.


On the evening of the 23d ult., Gov. John
]. McRae addressed very large meeting at
Natchez The speech was clear, Sorcible and
argumentative. The writer has often heard
the Governor speak. but never with such
ability. He was listened to with profound
attention, rarely interrupted BY applause, as
the people were evidently desirous to lose no
word of his exposition Of the antecedents Of
the candidates and the issues of the day, or a
link in his closely ly-connected argument. On
the conclusion, he was cheered as Natchez
audience rarely cheers. The truth is, that
every point was well taken and veil sus-
tained. A sketch of this great speech sp-
pears in the Free Trader of the 24th, but
that sketch contains an important error, and
makes Gov. McRae say ,chat he certainly diI
not say, directly nor indirectly. 6hd which
places the Governor and his audience in false
position. allude to the assertion that Gov
McRae instanced the act of Kansas prohibit
ing slavery within its limits, as a case that
demanded the Legislative protection of Con-
gress.
As have asserted, the Governor never in
stanced any actOf any Territory, simply pro-
hiJiting slavery in that Territory. Nor could
he have done so, for every man of sense
knows that, under the Dred Scott decision,
such an act would be simply null and void,
and requires no legislation from any quarter,
the courts having full jurisdiction, as it sta-d,
under the Constitution. The Governor in
stauced, instead, Eay,imdly legislation By tar
alton, or the nonpassagsof suitaJis police reg
t.lations, and this was all. These are really
the only cases which viii require Congress
sional legislation.
When the principle shall be established BY
the party, that it is the duty Of Congress to
protect and the interference Of Congress shall
manifestly become necessary, Congress win
then interfere.
