FRIDAY MORNING, JAN. 29, 1858.
Spreecu cr Senator Green or MissoURL—I¢ is-quite clear-to us that Senater.Grean-ofMissouri, more than Senator Douglas abandons in his late great
speeéh the entire. principles of popular
séyerdignty. “The doctrine he sets forth
diffexs*ia nothing “from-that held by the
statesmen of the country before the
new-fangled notions. embraced, or supged to “be -embraced, in“ the Kansas
and Nebrask Att ‘agitated the Union
from:-eentreto circumference. Senator
Giéen holds ‘that-no-act of Congress is
ngcessaey, before the assembling of a
Constitutional Genvention in Kansas to
miike.’the proceedings of such a body
legal, and produces precedents from the
past to prove his position sound and rational. He maintains it is not requisite
to submit the Lecompton Constitution
to the people, the question of slavery or
freedom alone being sufficient for submission to comply with the requirements
ofthe Nebraska Act. As Senator
Green .is a stickler for precedents we
cahnot see if the precedents cited are
partly good for proof why they are not
admissible as evidence to their fullest
extent. It is, we believe, a plaia rule
of-tew' that if a portion of the testimony;of Awitness be taken, the whole is
presumptively good. Senator Green
shéws in his speech that some States
have been admitted into the Union
whose Constitutions had not been previously: submitted to the people. He argues from precedent, therefore, that,
contrary to the opinion of Douglas, no
enabling act of Congress is necessary or
even preferable. The precedents go
farther and prove that more than one
State has been admitted into the Union
the slavery clause of whose Constitutions had received the sanction of the
people. Had the Lecompton Convention made no provision for submitting
even the slavery clause of the Constitution framed by them to the people, the
precedents cited by Senator Green
would have been more fully applicable
as they are now but partially so. But,
if we understand the position of the
Senator from Missouri, the submission of
the slavery section to the people, is the
only essetitial requisite to conform to the
doctrine of popular sovereignty ; in other words, all the hue and cry which has
been raised thronghout the land for
years yast, amounts, when traced toa
tangible point, to nothing but concerning the temporal welfare of a few miserable negroes. Popular sovereignty
is figured down to these contracted limits at last. At most then, the great
principles so untiringly extolled by the
Democracy, the right of a people to
forth und regulate their domestic institutions in their own way, are, that the
people may vote upon one question alone
in adopting their organic law, and if precedent, good for some part of the argument, is to be taken in accordance with
rules of evidence, not even this privilege is vouchsafed to the people, and the
great.and so much lauded doctrines of
squatter sovereignty have come wholly
to naught.
Senator Green’s argument is, that the
people of Kansas, form their own institutions in their own way through the
Lecotmpton Convention. They have
ehosen not the direct way of a vote of
themselves wpon the Constitution but
the delegated way as other States have
done. We suppose then, if the Lecompton Convention had decided not to
submit any_ portion of their Constitution
to the people, not even the slavery
elause, it would have been forming the
institutions of Kansas by the people in
thein own way within the meaning of
the Nebraska Act, if the position assumed by Senator Green be correct.
What-then, judging by Democratic argument do: the doctrines of popular sovereignty amount to practically? Nothing but the repeal of the compromise
line “and the, opening up of the territories Bortlrof it to slavery. The right
of the people in the Territories south of
thatline to establish or prohibit slavery
was acknowledged before the abolishment, of the line of compromise, and
therefore -nothing has been gained in
that quarter by the passage of the Nebraska Act—nothing at all; and it is
pretty generally conceded that the laws
of climate. effectually and absolutely
forbid the introduction of slavery into
the northern’ Territories. The repeal
of thé Missouri compromise and the ex
tension of squatter sovreignty over Nebraska’is but a mockery then of the
laws of nature, and practically is not
worth a farthing. Now what good may
we sineerely ask of any Democrat has
acerued to. the country, or is likely to
result from the ceaseless agitation the . has appointed Sam. C. Brooks, of Stock.
repeal of the Missouri compromise has
brought ‘about? Cui bono? Houses
have been burned, property laid waste,
men have been murdered, and the whole Joaquin county by the Know Nothings. .
Union from.a state of profound peace,
each section with the other, has been
for years thrown into turmoil and dread . much to the chagrin of the regular old .
and verging upon civil war, and all for
when the laws of climate have absolutely forbid it. Truly squatter sovereignty,
“blasted by disputes,
Produces sapless leaves instead of fruits.”
All this opening of the flood-gates of
sectional strife since the halcyon days of
‘Millard Fillmere,-we areforeedto—be. Osservance or THE SaBBaTH.—A
_meeting was held at the M. E. Church
on Sunday evening last and well attended, to take some action for procuring a
Sunday law from the Legislature. The
meeting was completely unanimous we

Will a rupture take place in the Democracy ?We can only judge by the
indications which are strongly in the .

speech,” as Forney terms it, seems to
have an eye to a severing of political . truth
ties when he says: “I should regret
any social or political estrangement
even temporarily ; but if it must be, if
I cannot act with you and preseive my .
faith and my honor, I will stand on the
great principle of popular sovereignty,
which declares the right of all people to .
be left perfectly free to form and regulate their domestic institutions in their
own way. I will follow that principle .
wherever its logical consequences may .
take me, and I will endeavorto defend
ance of the Sabbath brought about by
i law.
. For one we believe it to be a law of nature that man requires one day of rest
/in about seven. We believe that physiolsgical facts demonstrate clearly the
Douglas: ia his “great existence of this law, and could every
“mind be opened to the knowledge of the
few would he found guilty of sin_ning ogainst their own mental and phys. ical organisms, and no human enactment
. would be demanded. As it is all are
not perfectly satisfied that one day of
rest in seven is necessary to their well
being, or being satisfied, are not aware
of the extent to which they suffer from
an infringement of the laws of labor and
rest; and some for the sake of pecuniary gain are willing to run any hazard.
The furmer need only knowledge to observe the Sabbath, and not a statute
it against assault from any and all quar. enactment ; the latter cannot be coters.”
In Forney’s Press we find such expressions as the following: “Every .
Democrat must tremble for the future of .
his party and country at the present in.
sidious attack upon the most cherished .
article of a freeman’s faith.” “A party .
that would seem, even, to demand of its .
members unqualified stultification, must .
soon go down before the contempt and
execrations of an intelligent and free
people.”
And, again, the Press says, if the
course of the President is insisted on .
the Democratic party as at present or.
ganized will vanish as hoar-frost before
the rising sun. It does not seem likely
that the President with his formidable
array of backers will secede from the
position he has taken. On the contrary
sustained as he is by the majority of .
both Houses of the National Legisla.
ture itis more than probable that his .
recommendations on the Kansas ques.
tion will become the supreme law of the
land.

journals of this State upon the extreme .

Tue Grass Valley Telegraph says the
Literary Association of that place having induced our lecturers to come down
to Grass Valley to lecture ought to have

erced. And why? A regard for the
Sabbath is founded on a religious belief
with which the Legislature has nothing
todo. No enactment can force a Jew
to close his place of business on the
Christian Sabbath though a large majority of the Jews of this place are anxious §to close on that day, and one or
two may, under the existence of a statute as they have done heretofore when
private pledges were attempted to be
gotten up for the same object, thwart
The divine command
which instituted the holy Sabkath is as
imperative that man shall work six days
“Six days
shalt thou labor and do all thy work,
and on the seventh &c.’ The Jews as
well as other sects, the Seventh Day
. Baptists for example, draw from the Bible the injunction to rest on the seventh
day or Saturday, and observe that day
accordingly ‘These people may hold,
as they have a perfect right under our
Constitution to do, that they are commanded to labor on the first day of the
week or the Christian Sabbath if they
have anything to do, and we would like
to see some provision of our organic law
. that can prevent them from carrying out
their religious belief so long as it does
not conflict witk public morals.
In some of the States, where a law of
. this kind is made, various sects are exempted from its provisions tor very good
. reasons—one of which is the Legislattre is powerless to enact a law conflicting with the peculiar religious notions of
any denomination. :
We would like to see the places of
business in this city closed on the Sabbath, and have signed the petition to
the Legislature in circulation praying
for the passage of a Sunday law. By
so doing we only ask that the Legislature may go to the extent of its constitutional powers without meaning to say
it has any, on which point the members
are competent to judge for themselves.
A Sunday law, it is well known cannot be enforced in the lesser mining localities, and the question of policy may
suggest itself to legislators whether it is
wise to have a law upon the statute
books which must remain a dead letter
to half the people of the State.

Gray asks the Democratic party to show

were designed to kindle the fires of sectionalism throughout the State, and absolutely did more than any other one
act to force out a Republican party in

For the Nevada Journal,
Cuerokes, Jan. 14th, 1858.
Epirors Jouryau:+Cherokee has
been so long unnoticed by the county
journals that it is almost forgotten. Will
you give it a hearing? It is located on
an extensive gravel range, which for
uniform good miujng is not surpassed by
any part of the State. -At present we
are suffering severely from the want of
water. When the snow that is now
falling has changed to a more subtle element w2 will seud you mining items that
will eclipse even the far famed “Gouge
Eye.” The basin of the gravel deposit
being extremely difficult of access at
this point has never yet been opened on
the bed rock. It is now in a fair way
to be thoroughly prospected. Gill &
Co. on Badger Hill, have nearly completed a tunnel which will be seventy
feet below the surface of the bed rock
inside the basin. Dr. Clarke, Bloss &
Co. are vigorously driving the Earthquake tunnel from Shady Creek, for
the purpose of draining the basin from
the south side. When these tunnels
are finished Cherokee will doubtless
rank high among the mining towns of
this ridge. Even without them the proceeds from our surface diggings during
the water season range from ten to thirty dollars per day to the man.
Our town is the residence of two celebrated chroniclers, Quilp and Crucible,
who through the North San Juan Star
keep the public generally posted concerning noteworthy incidents transpiring in this vicinity, Latterly, however,
having crossed “antlers” in a fierce
personal encounter they have forgotten
to note the formation of a spirited debating club which bids fair to rival the oratory of Greece and Rome. If declamation, loud and bombastic, is eloquence,
Demosthenes is eclipsed forever.

LecaL Ini ELLIGENCE.— County Court.
In the matter of an Irishman who squatted on a lot belonging to the Court, a
decision was rendered on W ednesday
that that lay member of the legal profession, Staats, be ordered to overturn
the squatter’s house in the dead hour of
night, a la vigilance, and in accordance
with the statute in such eases not made
and provided for the guidance of the
Court, and appropriate the lumber to
build a fence around the premises for
the benefit of the Court. Irishman’s
wife put in a demurrer on Thursday
morning in the shape of an axe, knocking the palings off as fast as the aforesaid lay member nailed them up. Case
deferred till further darkness.
Constable’s Court.—In the matter of
Tom. Holmes vs. the County Surveyor.
an action to recover a whisky bill. for
which an attachment was issued ona
compass, chains, &e., a trial of the
rights of property came off on Wednesday before Constable Gregory. Counsel got excited in the case but the Court
preserved its wonted imperturble equanimity and calmly rendered judgment for
the defendant. Jury fees not being
pungled according to law, Constable
Gregory took the case (ie. of instruments) under his wing for the present
with an inflexible resolve that knows no
“budging.”
Marshal’s Coat.—Our worthy Marshal was called on Wednesday to preserve the dignity of the city by removing a devotee of lager from the quiet
purlieus of Commercial street to the still
more quiet place of repose—the calaboose. he fighting liquor in the poor
fellow evinced itself in a hostile manner,
and found partial satisfaction in remoying by irregular pieces very material
and necessary portions of the Marshal’s
coat, exposing a quantity of red lining
and giving the chief executive officer of
the town the appearance of a military
personage in regimentals. The appearance was made the more perfect by the
troop following in all the pomp and cireum
stance of glorious war. The sight created a thirst for military fame, as the
thing was mistaken by some for a parade
of the new rifle company, or the retreat
of the lately raised Mormon troop from
Salt Lake, and quite a number of felluws we understand “listed” during the
evening.
IN THE garden of John C. Fall, of
Marysville, there are several Australian
Acacias, ten and twelve feet high, the
growth ofthe present year from the
seed ; and also trees of two years’
growth, that are twenty to twenty five
