Constitution Az States lying south of 36o 80
seem just now to have proclvity for going out
of the Union, would it not be well, ere Repub-
Leans in Congress aid in creating any more States
below that magic parallel, to ascertain the views
of their people on these subjects? Why not aI-
thcrize the Committee Of Thirty Three to inquire
into the opinions Of New-Mexico on the Secession
question, with power TO send for poems and
papers, cnibodyilg the Information they obtain IN
some half dozen contradictory and selfstultifying
reports The constituents OF some members OF
that Committee will be apt to put probing qties-
tons 10 them on this subject when they return
home, aud they had better prepare their answers
in advance.
Seriously, though ere any more Slavehoidins
Territories are enabled" to come Into the
Union, ought not the adhering and loyal STATES
TO be well assured as to how long they intend 10
remain in the Union1 New-Mexico, like Florida,
was bought and fought into the Union at On e1'
pendture of much treasure and blood After be-
ing admitted as o State, will she, like Florida
at her own convenience hold Convention, pass
an ordinance, cut her cable, and sail straight out
of the Union New Mexico has on her statute
book the most cruel mean and barbarous Slave
code that disgraces any State or Colony in the
western hemisphere. If an enabling act is to
be passed for her admission to the Union next
Winter, is this atrocious code to remain in full
force and vigOr during the Intervening period,
and then to become ali authoritative portion OF
the laws of the new state Had not those
Republicans in Congress who are SO eager to do
something for this poor Territory, better wipe
out this black and bloody code ere they open the
gates of the Union and invite her in as State
OF all the many crude, needless, needless, ILL
shapen paintings to which tho present disturbed
condition Of the body polite has given premature
birth, the most uncalled for and unstateSman-
Ike Is this scheme TO drag into the Union, before
its time, and not half made up this poor, bar
rem, thriltless region, sparsely settled win
semi-cyilized population, merely because 1t hap
pens 10 lie south Of the Lire Of 36O ~, and
stands some chance Of being cursed with eternal
Slavery. Republicans in Congress have you
forgotten that the repeal OF this infamous
Slave Code, the appointment OF honest law
giyers over this feeble Territory, and its ultimate
admission to the Union as Free STATE were
among the issues upon which we went to the
people in the last election, and upon which they
gave an overwhelming verdict in behalf OF Free
dom Beware how you attempt to reverse that
verdict Neither the demands Of the South, nor
the wishes Of the North, nor the eAigencies OF
the Union, require any such bootless sacrifice OF
your principles and your self.respect.

ACCESSION A RLUNDER.

The Slave States are trying to enforce fall
lacy by blunder. The fallacy is this: They
claim that ours il Government of two sutsgOn-
ist sections, Slavery and Anti-Savery. And
claiming this, they declare that Slavery has
rights in the Territories. Hitherto, in our more
recent history, they have demanded oil of those
Territories for Slavery. Now they demand
partition, and say they will be content with their
proportion. But unless SO much is granted, they
threaten 10 leave the Union. In setting forth
this claim they err utterly in their premises,
namely that this is Government of sections In
stead of this being So it is palpable fact that
il ia no Government of sections, or OF separate
interests. II is a Government of one people
with a single aim and single purpose, and that
single aim and purpose is the good Of the whole.
The determination of what that good is, rests
with The majority; and when decided, the mi
nority is in duty bound to acquiesce. Such is
the fallacy, and such is the answer to it.
The blunder consists in going out of the Union
TO enforce their claim, which rests on the fallacy.
If they cannot get their claim TO territory over
which 10 spread Slavery allowed within the
Union, then they will go out of the Union tC

A FEW QUESTIONS ABOUT NEW.
MRXll0

Those Republicans in Congress who seem in haste
to admit the mongrel population of New-MeIico
into the Union a. State, with or without
Slavery, as her poems I'VE beg pardon-her people,
shall choose, ought at least to incorporate into
their enabling act section which shall provide
that, al condition precedent to their admission
as Slave State, they shall enter into bonds,
with sufficient sureties, that they will not secede
from the Union. within thirty days after their
admission, and that they will not take possession
of the forts arsenals and other Federal property
within their borders, without giving the national
Government ten days written notice OF their in
tenton so to do. BY the by, who can give the
public any information as to what are the Opin-
ions of these sem-barbarous, half Indian, half
Mexican tribes, upon the general question OF Be-
cesson---wbether they hold to fhe doctrine that
Secession is a right existing under and by virtue

We trust, before the members OF the South
Carolina Parliament fall to, that sumptuary laws
will restrain their appeites. Without some snch
provision there might not be dogs enough left in
South Carolina to keep up the patriotic disease
Of hydrophobia which is just now greater bless
ing to the leading patriots of that State than
ever a plague was to the doctors. The love of
whisky to which the seeding South owes 50
many Of its blessings and the hope Of SO many
more, should be carefully encouraged; and we
have no doubt that general return to cold
water would coon put Charleston in a position
of common sense painfully humilating.
