. Che Hebadx Fourual. 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 'areinformed, a general disposition being lieve amounts to vot et preterea nihil, or,, Manifested to see_a compulsory observasthe Devil said when-he sheared the hog, “a great cry and little wool.” Will a rupture take place in the Democracy ?We can only judge by the indications which are strongly in the . affirmation. 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. Great stress is laid by the Democratic journals of this State upon the extreme . courtesy of the speech of Douglas and letter of Walker towards the President, . . i . i] . and an omen of harmony drawn there: . from. It is the custom with execution: . ers to ask pardon ere the axe descends of the culprit for the blow about to be given. We find many indications that . a spirit is aroused throughout almost the . entire Union and especially the north. west against the stand occupied by Bu. chanan. The dissenters express them. selves as regretting the issue forced upon them, but that a conscientious regard for consistency and right dictates . their course. The other side is marked . with intolerance and the party lash is not lightly applied from this quarter, . provoking an air of defiance from the . opposing forces. Douglas has taken his grounds counting well the cost before. hand and relying upon the integrity to . principle in his party will not easily succumb. = Our readers will see in another column the notice of a singing school, which is to be commenced to-morrow evening 71-2 o’clock at the Brick . Church. Mr. Mendel] who has just arrived from the East and who proposes to take charge of the school, is highly recom. mended both as an accomplished singer and teacher. Having been engaged for . the past eight or ten years as a teacher of vocal music, his friends flatter themselves that he will give perfect satisfac. tion to those who may attend his school. 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 made an effort to cbtain an audience even had it been at theirown expense. Yes, instead of at the expense of the lecturers. The suggestions of the Telegraph comes with healing in its wings . the whole thing. . as that he shall work one. . tive without mercy. 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. Mean Trick.—The Democracy characterize the attempt of Mr. Gray of San Francisco to introduce into the Assembly a resolution endorsing the course of Senator Douglas, a mean trick and pounce on the poor old Irish representaWhat have the Democracy to say now to the introduction of the resolutions censuring Congress for the election of Banks as Speaker of the House two years since? Mr. Gray asks the Democratic party to show its hand on a great principle of popular . sovereignty. The Banks resolutions 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 this State. What is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. Let the Demto our befooled essayists. Hitu’s Birt.—On the fomth page will be found the Bill of Representative Hill of this county. It will explain itself. Tue Honolulu (S. 1.) pafers announce the death at that place, onthe 10th Dee. last, of John G. Marvin, a well known citizen of California, and who was Superintendent of Publie Instruction in 1851. Mr. M. was formerly from Towanda, Bradford county, Pa. He died of consumption, at the age of forty-two years. Srate ContTrotter.—Goy. Weller ton, Controller of State, in plaee of J. W. Mandevil'e, who did not qualify.

Tue Grass Valley Telegraph says we scout the idea of the public kaving any thing to say upon the question of the County Debt, and gives a garbled quotation from our article to help out its . misrepresentations. If the Telegraph will examine its back files and give us . credit for the articles filched from this . journal by wholesale, we will excuse it . from the infinite trouble it has been to in mentioning us when our position is falsiand staid members of the party.

D’ye mind that now. Inrerestine Lerrer.—A very in' teresting letter from Henry P. Sweetjland former Assemblyman from this , county will be found in another place. 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. Sam. 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 feet in circumference in the branches. Freepom Suriekine.—A Cincinnati paper published the speech of Senator Douglas under the following heading : “Big Shriek for Freedom trom the Little Giant. !” Charles Feuno Hoffman, the insane poet, is said to be so ill that he cannot live much longer. Death will be a relief to him. Pus. Docs.—We are indebted to Hon. G. A. Young of the Assembly for the Controller's and Quarter Master General’s reports.
