CoNGREssioNAL-ln the Senate, several
slave code speeches had been made On the
18th, Mr.. Davis, in long address on his Ter
ritorial resolution, said that he did not ap
preciate the slave code, but asserted the
right of slave property for protection in the
Territories. 1t was the duty of Congress to
see that this protection was awarded He
combatted the doctrine of popular sovereign
ty.-Zek dispatch.
"He combatted the doctrine of popular
sovereignty" This is fine revolution Of
affairs. A man calling himself Democrat,
combating the doctrine of popular sovereign.
ty This combating popular sovereignty
will prove losing game, though. 1t is
warning against Hercules, and his club
will come down some day, to the damage of
some peoples heads

Now and Then.

The Slave Coolers are making mighty
fuss because the Democracy of the Ma
tion refuse to depart from their old doctrine
Of nop-intervention, and declare in favor OF
Congressional protection for slavery in the
Territories. They loudly threaten TO pay no
heed to the Baltimore nomination, if it be
not of a man pledged to the kind of Con-
grcssional intervention they desire. These
same men, and the worst tire-eatcr Of them
all. Yancey, of Alabama, were the most
strenuous of all, the advocates of popular
sovereignty aud non-intervenlion in 1851
and 1896 and even previously. Then, they
declared that all they asked of the North
was to keep their hands off the Territories
all they desired was complete surrender
of the powers of legislation, on this question
of slavery, to the people of the Territories.
Then, they thought it the policy of the Gov
erument, aside from any constitutional con
sideration, to allow the people to regulate
their own affairs.
Non, they insist, with the most astonish-
us thHb AuiiS cSo snail
slate in behalf of slavery, and contend that
the Supreme Court of the United States has
decided that Congress has the power Ad-
hitting the constitutional power, for the SAX,
of argument, is not the policy just as goot
to-day as when they advocated it as the es-
senee of political wisdom? What are they
going to do with all their arguments in favor
Of non-intervention How are they going
to answer their own propositions? TheiI
attitude is certainly very peculiar.
1t is lucky for the country that these men
are in the minority in the South. Such men
as Alexander H. Stevens of Georgia, who
stands upon non-intervention as of old he
stood, will lead the Southern masses, and the
Yanceyites aud Davisies will sink into their
political graves, "unwept, unhonered, and un.
sung"

IHE BoLroN-SANTILLAN CLAIM The effect
