but, wo are told tAat the necessary result
Ut thts doctrine OF non-lntersent1ou, which gen.
'iemeo. by way OF thFo*ing rld'cule upon, call
squatter sovereignty, is to deprive the Soush Of
~ participation in whut they call the coumon
! Territories O the United States. That was the
ground on which lie Senator from Mississippi
(Nr. Dav!s) pred,cated h,s opposition to tne
compromise measuresof 1850. Ho regarded
resusa! TO repeat the Nexlcan faw as equivalent
to the Wlfm't Pfovlso; refusal to recognize
by an act OF Congress the right to carry Stare
there ~ equivalent to tie WiErnot Prov1so;
refusal to deny 10 . Territorial l+gsf. tnte the
tiGat to etcnde slareFy a. equivalent to an e2-
ctuslon lie belcEcd at that time that this doc.
trlne did amount to u denial Of southern rights;
| nnd he told tee people OF Mississippi SO; but
| the5 doubted H. Now, let US see how far his
| predictions aad suPros!tions have bscn Verified.
| infer that be told the people SO, for as he
makes It Charge IN his bill! Of Indictment
| against NE, sh4t en- hostile to southern rights,
brc,nee | gase those vu,es.
Now, "lst has been the result? Ny views
were Incorporated into The compromise ,nea.
hures cf 1850, and his were rejected. Has the
South been excpdtd frcm a1i The ter1itery nc.
qusrrd from Mexico? What says the hi! from
