The New York Herald, speaking of the recent dis
turbances in the Democratic ranks and of the
which led thereto, says:
Shortly after the Inauguration of Mr.. Buchanan
the bred Scott decision of the Supreme Court was
promulgated to the world. That decision as deliv-
cred by Chief Justice fancy declares that every
citizen has right to take with him into the Terri
tory any article of properly which the constitution
of the United States recognises as property - that
the constitution recognizes slaves property and
pledges the federal government to protect it." and
that Congress cannot exercise any more authority
over property of that description than tmay consti-
tutlonaly exercise over property of any other kind"
The Court further declares that the powers which
Congress in its discretion may confer upon Terri
torial Government must be "powers not exceeding
those which Congress ITSELF by the constitution is
authorized to exercise"
This decision which abolishes the doctrine of
sguater sovereignty over slavery in the Territories
and establishes the doctrine of slavery protection
therein by the federal and local authorities while
the Territorial condition remains, was at once
promptly accepted as the supreme law of the land
by the Democratic party. But Mr.. Douglas, in his
Illinois campaign of 1858, threw it off, 1t was load
too heavy to carry against the anti-slavery senti-
ment of that people. He pleaded that the bred
Scott decision did not, and could not touch the SUI
premacy of the popular will in the Terrtoriesthat
the sovereignty of the people was, in fact beyond
the reach of the Supreme Court. He followed up
these views in magazine articles and speeches. until
he had raised the sovereignty of Territory to the
sovereignty of State, and boldly pronounced these
views as his ultmatum to the Charleston Convention.
From that moment we predicted the downfall Of |
Mr. Douglas at Charleston on the experimental trial
on his part of the role of Van Buren, Of 1913. Now
our Democratic readers will perceive the difficulty
the cause of the explosion in their party camp, and
the wide distinction between the Breckenridge and
the Douglas platform. The former rests upon the |
bred Scott decision Of the Supreme Court; the /
Douglas platform sticks to the old dogma of Squat
ter Sovereignty, notwithstanding that it has been
authorItatvely declared null and void as the Mis-
souri, Compromise line itself
And so it Is that the Douglas party war cry OF |
against the Breckenridge party will
amount to nothing so long as the platform of the
latter rests upon supreme law of the land, while
Squatter Sovereignty, tried in Kansas has shown
itself TO be full of the combusbles of civil war.
