JUDGE DOUGLAS AND THE MISSOURI COMPROMISE.
In his speech in Rochester, n. Y, on Tuesday,
Judge Douglas presented no new features, except
on the subject of the Missouri Compromise He
claimed he had always supported and upheld the
Missouri Compromise so long as the people of the
free States were willing to abide by it, and, in
lS48, had introduced a bill, which was passed by
the Senate, extending the line to the Pacific The
House rejected that bill, and he claimed, if it had
passed it, it would have settled slavery agitation
forever. He charged that it had been defeated by
a union of freesoilers and Southern fire eaters who
had then combined against the Missouri Compro-
mise as they now combine against popular sover-
eighty.
