BLaCK-REPuBMCAN "HlGHER LAW"

BoorH, the fugitire-slave rescuer, of AliIwau-
bic, Who lately escaped from the custody Of
the United States marshal, stands in opsn de-
fance of the law, and is publicly sustained by
his sympalhzprs. Since his escape be lectur-

sfent occurred -
ale announced during bis remarks that
there was a marshal in lhe room, and desired
hlm 10 come forward and arrest him. Upon
his, ii is stated, Deputy Marshal McCarty, Of
Fond do Lac, stepped forward and presented
writ. The excitement was immense, about
hundred men crying out, ''klIl him." hustle
him OUT &c. McCarty had his clothing near
ly al torn off, No shots were fired, although
revolvers and bowie-knives were handled
carelessly. On Sunday Booth leclured in the
grove, great excitement attending the speech,
out no more attempts at rescue"
This man has for years had semi-impunity
10 violate the laws oil the United States, and
set its officers and process at defiance. 1t is
quite time, We think, that he should be con-
vjoced that United States law is not entirely
faTcIcsl and impotent.

WgV. SHOULD ALL GOOD DEMOCRATS
NJ FnTND SUPPORTING DOUGLAS.

The following article from the Detroit ''Free
prss.,,-gives very satisfactory reasons why no
,ood Democrat--no one having the interest OF
.,e marty m view should be found opposing
Douglas
Mr.. Douglas is the regular nominee OF the
Democratic party, chosen according 10 the rules
and usagss of the party conventions, having re-
lived more than two-thirds OF the votes ofthe
who'll convention while MIR. BreckinIidge is
the nominee oi mere boiling faction. In the
convention where Mr.. Douglas was unanimous
ly nominated, there were two hundred and
eishteen votes, while in that which nominated
Nt. Breckenridge, there were but ftty-two and
half votes. or one hundred and FIVE delegates.
Mr., Douglas had clear majority OF the
whole convention at Charleston, and should
therefore have immediately received nomina-
tioD.
The delegates who voted for Mr.. Douglas a;
Charleston represented more than | 100000 Of
:be 1885, ,232 votes cast for AIR Buchanan in
1855 More than lwb,thirds Of the democrat
ic voters OF the Union called for his nomination
and less than one-third opposed Il.
Mr. Douglas stands fairly and squarely upon
the platform adopted By the Charleston conven-
ton before there was any secession, while Mr.
B,pckinridge does not.
1r. Douglas is emiaently Unlon candidate.
The fact that both Northern sectonalsts assail
tim, demonstrates that AIr. Breckinridge is en-
laently dsunIon candidate. The fact that
al disun:oaisls south Of Mason & Dixon's line
support aim proves 1t. Il was less than wee9
ago that the Journal of Commerce Itself had to
rspudiate the disunion motives that so many of
the Southern supporters its candidate urge
for their action, using this language: 'We by
10 means consent TO place our reasons for our
action upon thus tthe disunionl basis"
Tie result o! the recent elections OF the
South shows that Mr. Breckinridge will be
overwhelmingly defeated in those States which
II was claimed he was sure TO carry.
The result ofthe recent elections points to
the Inevitable conclusion that Douglas will poll
more votes at the South than Mr. Breckenridge.
TIE action Of the regularly constituted State
DenocratiC conventions in the Northern States,
and especially of those in Michigan and New
York, should have their influence with all good
Democrats within those States. All these con-
venuans have endorsed Mr. Douglas and repu-
dated Mr. BFeckinrdge.
J BS IdCN biidN iutl lHlSc-iOuItUSs ~ Hut i've
sixlhs, Of all the Democrats in the Union sup
port Mr.. Douglas, wall enable all those who
are really in doubt as TO the proper course to
pursue, 10 choose between the two.
Mir. Douglas is lhe regular nominee of the
Democratic party, made such by old established
rules sad ussgps, and accepted as such by vast
majority of the party.
Finally, Nc. Douglas can overthrow Black
Republcanism; Mr.. Breckenridge most assured
ly cannot.

"ABRAHAM LINCOLN, who has ever been a

Henry Clay on Slapery in the Territories -
10 1857, Henry Clay, then Senator OF the Uni
ted States, introduced the following resolution
IN the Senate:
''Resoiued, That any attempt OF Congress TO
prohibit slavery in the Territories Of the Uni
ted States would create serious alarm and lust
appFehensions, would be violation of good
laith towards the inhabitants OF such Territory
who have removed thereto with their slaves.
and because, when such Territory shall be ad-
mhted into the Union as a State, the people
thereof shall be entitled to decide that question
exclusively for themselves
On The Sth of May, 1850, Henry Clay wrote
as follows IN his report
"To avoid, in all future time, the agitatons
which must be produced by the conflict of opin-
ions on the slavery queston-existing, as this
institution does, in some of the States, and pro-
hlbit-d, as it is, in ohers-the true principle
which ought 10 regulate the action of Congress.
IN forming territorial governments for each new
ly-acqulreG domain, is to refrain from all lpgis-
ialon on the subject in the territory acquired,
SO long as It retains the territorial form OF gov
ernment-leaving it to the people OF such Ter
ritory, when they have attained 10 a condition
which entities them to admission as STATE, TO
decide for themselves the question of the allow
ance or prohibition OF domestic slavery"
.4be Lincokn'S .4ft,tude Toward The Slape
Statss.-The slavery agitation will continue
till crisis has been reached and passed. This
government cannot endure permanently hall
slave and half free. The Union will cease 10
be divided-it will become all one thing or the
other.-Speect Of Lincoln at Sp, ingfetd, June
1858.
He desires that slavery shall be put IN course
OF ultimate extnction.-Speech at ChicGgo, Ju-
ly 10, 1858.
The agitation is TO continue till the public
mind shall rest in the belief that slavery is in
the course of ultimate extinction Speech al

Rv careful examination of the geography
OF The world, il has been ascer,ained that the
great artesIan bore at Columbus, Ohio, will on
passing through TO the opposite side ofthe globe
come out exactly fifteen miles from the great
China wall on the China side, and about go
miles from Pekin. This is discovery of i'm
portance, and must vastly encourage the ci,i-
gems of Columbus. If they do not succeed in
obtaining water, they intend, we are told, 10
rass telegraph wire through, 50 as to bring
Columbus IN direct communication with the
