claim Of the party to whom such service or
labor may be due
This stipulation was so material to the com.
pact, that without it that compact would not
have been made. The greater number of the
contracting parties held slaves, and the State
Of Virginia had previously declared her csti-
mate OF its value by making it the condition
of her ccsSiou of the territory which now cou,-
poses the States North of the Ohio River.
The same article of the Constitution Stipu.
lates also for the rendition by the several States
of fugitives from justice from the other States.
The General Government, as the common
agent, passed laws 10 carry into effect these
stipulations Of the States. For many years
these laws were executed. But an increasing
hostility on the part of the Northern States to
the institution Of slavery has led to a disregard
of their obligations, and the laws Of the Gen.
cral Government have ceased to effect the OBJ
iects of the Constitution. The States OF Maine,
New Hampshire, Vermont, massachusetts,
Connecticut. Rhode Island, New York, Pear-
sylvania, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan,
Wisconsin and Iowa, have enacted laws, which
either nulify the Acts of Congress or
render useless any attempt to execute
them. In many Of these States the
fugitive is discharged from the service Or
labor claimed, and in none of them has the
State Government complied with the stipulation
made in the Constitution. The State u New
Jersey, at an early day, passed Il law for the
rendition Of fugitive slaves in conformity with
her constitutional undertaking but the cur.
rent Of anti slavery feeling has led her more re.
Gently to enact laws which render imperative
the remedies provided by her own law and by
the laws Of Congress. In the State of New York
even the right of transit for Il slave has been
denied by her tribunals ; and the States ot
Ohio and lowe have refused TO surrender to
justice fugitives charged with murder, and with
inciiing S~ervile insurrection in The State ri
Virginia Thus the constitutional compact has
been deliberately broken and disresarded by
non. slaveholding States, and the consequence
follows that South Carolina is released from its
obligations.
The ends for which this Constitution was
framed. arc declared by itself to be so form q

ANorHER SLANpER since the nomina.

ANOTHER ISLANDER Since the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Breckenridge the fertile brains
of the theatrical democracy have been EN-,
ployed inventing calumnies Wherewith to
damage bis political repusation and diminish
bis popularity. He was said to have signed
petition to Gov. Wise asking for the pardon
of John Brown He was reported to have
engaged Mr.. Owen Lovejoy 10 stump Ken
lucky in his behalf He was said to have
been know nothing. All these ludicrous
SANDERS we're invented and circulated, and
successfully exposed, not to the shame of
their authors, because they have no shame,
but to tie entire satisfaction of the people,
The latest calumny is that Mr.. Breckenridge
was an "emancipationist in Kentucky"
This charge is just as false as that about the
engagement of Lovejoy to stump Kentucky !
The best proof of this is the fact that, in
lS49, he was candidate for the legislature
of Kentucky on ticket opposed to the
emancipationist party, and actually voted
against his uncle, the Rev. R. j. Breckenridge,
who 'oas an emancipationist. Thus, one
after anothery are these INSCRIPTIONS at.
tempts to misrepresent completely defeated.

But, sir, were . momber Of town or city
Council, l think should not hesitate to give my
voice for the suppression Of these slave depOts,
or SldVe pens a. they are called, within the pre-
cincts Of the corporation. John Bells speech
upon the bill to abolish the slave trade in the
District Of Columbia Globe, vol.
o. part I'd, page 1868.
| We ask Southern men If this is what they cal
soundness upon the slavery question. We re-
member when such sentiments would be called
abOlitonism, but in these ''pipiug times of peace
1t is difficult to tell how far Southern ears will be
accustomed to abolition notes, aud to what extent
they can be led to endorse them. Slaves are
property, and, as such, whoever owns them has
the right, under the Constitution like the owners
of other property, to 60 into the market aud sell
them wherever he can get the best price. But
It seems that John Bell, of Tennessee, would, in
deferenee to abolition sensibilitiss," rob the
Southern people of the right. We are astOnished
that q man uttering such sentiments could get a
single vote in the South
Again, in speaking upon this subject, (same
vol. and page, Con. GlObe,) he said;
"If, sir, it were proposed to eradicate slavery
from the District and at the same time provide
proper securities for the removal effective con-
no of the free colOred population, am not pre-.
pared to say that the South ought to resist the
measure"
Thus we see that John Bell, who is valntedfn
the South as true Southern MAI, and ipthe
North as one who rs not strong in his' pro-
slavery pTOelivities; is willing that slavery
be abolished in the District of Columbia, And that
the Southern man shall be prevented from going
there with his slave either for sale Of his own
private use. Call ye this soundness on the slave.
ry question If so, we confess we know not
what soundness means. The speech alluded to is
full of just such sentiments, and we can upon all
who have the slightest idea of voting for Bell to
read this speech before they commit such a>suici-
dal act as to cast their vote for him. We have
the vOlame of the Globe, and it is free for the
use Of those who wish to read this remarkable,
and as it seems to US, aholition speech.

HINTS AS TO POLITICAL MEETINGS.

AS the time is approaching when politica
gatherings will be numerous and large We
beg leave to offer few suggestions on the
subject:
l. Do not fix the day for your meeting
and then look up your speaker-they viii
already perhaps, have been engaged elsewhere
for that very day-but secure you speakers
first. Let them fix the day.
2. Two prominent speakers, with the 10
cal aid at your command, are amply sufi
cient for any one mass meeting. Let the
people understand these can be relied on
and do not load your bills with an army 0,
great names only to disappoint your audience
/. Have your meetings, if possible, in
doors. One indoor meeting, even if packed
is worth half dozen outdoor noisy gather.
ing. The former is comparatively easy and
tho latter difficult for speaker to control
A If must have outdoor gatherings, then
seek the grove or woods, yud fail not to
erect a stand for your speakers, covered
with boards, and with nothing else. Can.
vass absorbs and deadens the voice, while
with nothing above the speakers head, bis
voice will waste in the air above, and in
FIVE cases out Of six be will break down.
