LrEcoLx's OPINION OF JEFFERSON. Since
Abraham Lincoln has been talked OF for
President, we believe he has written q let
ter ,c some Yankee Abolitionisls, extolling
Thomas Jefferson and claiming him as the
father and founder Of the modern Republican
party. 1t seems. however, that Mr.. Lincoln
entertained . very different opinion Of JEFF
ferson, few years ago. The Macomb Qll)
Eagle has had the unkindness TO rake up
from old files, = speech made BY Lincoln in
1914 ia which he thus spoke Of the author
or the Declaration Of Independence:
.Mr. Jefferson 10 sta atesmsR whose prais.

cratic party. Let US attend 70 this uncom-
promising friend Of freedom whose name -

and the degrading curse Of slavery, no

From the Louisville Democrat.
Breckinridge's Position--.he won't stand
fire from the Slave Code.

B,eckinridge, in his letter of acceptance.
says
1.-The friends OF Constitutional equality do
not and never did demand Congressional
slave code,' nor any other code in regard
property in the Territories. They hold the
doctrine Of non-intervention by Congress,
or BY = Territorial Legislature, either TO es-
tablish or prohibit slavery"
We ask the particular attention Of Mr.,
Breckinridge's supporters 70 this declare
sfon.
We undertake 70 say that slavery neveI
did and never can exist in . civilized state
without "slave code;'' or, in other words,
without laws regulating the tenure Of the
property and the relation Of master and
slave.
We have such code in Kentucky
code exists in every slave state Of thu
Union.
Are slaves real or personal property! Arr
they subjec, to The same criminal law % free
menl Can the owner OF q slave cruelty ans
inhumanly abuse and malireat him with i'm
punityi How are sales OF slaves 10 be effec
ted. BY writing or BY psroll Can slave be :
witness for or against his master! II q slave
is executed for criminal offence, shall .
master be compensated for his loss BY the
Territory or the United States!
These and hundred other questions will
be constantly arising in all communities
where slaves are held. They must be set.
tied ty statute law, and that statute law is
a "slave code"
Slavery like all things else, must be regu.
lated BY law, and BY laws particularly framed
to meet its peculiarties. General laws reg
ulating other property are inapplicsbie.. A
man NAV kill his horse or his OK, and Il
slaves are simple property, held BY the same
tenure ami governed b. the same laws, ne
NAV kill them also. But even South Ccro-
lima would hardly openly avow such q doc
trine az yet, Whatever she may come 70 here
after.
Then IL Il clear that wherever slavery
exists il must be regulated and governed oy
positive law. II 10 not enough that the
Constitution should, as Mr.. Brecklnridge
claims. recognize and secure the right OF .
Kentuckian 10 carry his slaves into Kansas.
He needs laws when there, not only 70 pro-
tect him In possession Of his property, but 70
define his tenure and regulate all matters
connected Herewith; such laws are indis.
pensable and the only question 10, who shall
enact them--the representatives. Of the Ter
ritory. or Black Republican Congress.
