Opposition party of the South, generally. The Op-
position party of the South do not claim that Con-
gress has right to gislate SLAVERY into the Terri
tories but insist that 1T is not only the right but
the Imperative duty Of Congress to legislate for its
protection property aoithin the Territories Just
it would be its right and imperave duty to legs-
late for the protection of horses cattle any other
species of property within the Territories and the
corollary from this proposition is that the Terrific
rial Legislatures have right to drive off slaves,
impair the value of their labor by "unfrendly leg
islation" any more than they would have the right
by "unfrendly legislation" to drive of, or impair
the value of any other species of property. This,
we repeat, is the ground occupied by the Southern
Opposition, generally and it is the only true South
ern ground. Douglas doctrine of "unfrendly leg
isation" against slavery by Territorial legislatures
strikes at the very root of the institution of slavery
everywhere. To acguiesce IN such doctrine aoould
be a declaration that SLAVES not property-G de-

has to hold his horse and have its labor secured to
