WAsnINGTON, Jan. L..
Although the Republican Senators
yesterday voted against the Crittenden
compromise, their chief objection was to
that part which proposed to divide tie
territory which may hereafter be acqulr-
ed but measure of that character, con-
fined to the present territory, meets with
some degree of favor by the X pubicans
IN both branches of Congress.
1t is known 10 most reliable Republic
can circles that, so far, Messrs. Seward
aid Bates are the only gentlemen select
en- for Mr.. Llcoln's Ca oinet, and proba-
bly, Mr.. Wells, of Conn The others will
not be absolutely determined upon till

es to secure all the votes possible. Dur.
ing the late campaign We co nrlained Of
our Democratic contemporaries because
they did not publish Mr.. Douglas speech
es, bat we believe there was IL portion of
one speech that his friend. at the North
did circulate, and it was about the only
extract they could find that they consid-
eeed worthy of publication. We belle, e
it met the universal appreciation of the
| Democrats at the North, we know it did
of the Republicans. We commend thai.
extract to the Democrats of to day. If
| it was good doctrine before the election
it is good now. 1t is an extract from bis
speech at Norfolk, Va aud we give it as
published IN the PlainlcaIer, and other
Douglas papers at the time:
:" In the middle Of his address, slip
of paper was handed to him. L. vas cut
FROM the Norfolk Duly argus, and con.
tanned two questions !:
8" The first is: IF Abraham Lincoln
be elected President fthe United States
would the Southern States be justified in
seeding from the Union?' Mr.. Doug
las said TO this emphatical1y aps~er
No. Great applause. The election of
a man to the Presidency by the Ameri-
can people, in conformity with the Con
,titution of the United States, would not
justify any attempt at dissolving this
glorious confcder,cy.' Applause
Second: II they, the Southern
States. srcede from the Union upon the
Inauguration of Abraham Lincoln, before
he commits an overt act against their
constitutional rights. will you advise or
vindcate resistance by force to their Sc
ccssiun ?
Il answer emphatically, that it is the
duty Of the President Of the United
States and all in authority under him, to
enforce the laws of the United States
passed by Congress and as the Courts
expound them; AID |, as in duty bound
by my oath and fidelity TO the Consttu-
ton, would do all in my power to aid the
Government of the United States in
maintaining the Supremacy Of the laws
against all resistance to them, come from
what quarter it might
In other words, think the Presi,

s=2t~ IN effort is being made by some
to induce the Gove-ncr to call ar extra
session Of the Legislature. We do not
think that the political crisis is of such
character as to demand an extra session
at present, aud while we admit that many
things In our laws need amending, we
very much doubt the utility Of calling
the present Legislature together again.
From their course las, winter we should
fear more evil than good result from an
extra session. We east no reflection up
on the members from this county for so
far as We know their votes were always
right.
