Wendell, the proprietor. He said, io the presence . of several gentlemen, that so man would walk to Baltimore and vote for Stephen A Douglas and that Douglas kaew this fact; that he was the owner of the Union . paper it was true, but he wrote vone of the articles, These, he said, “were written by mem bers of the Cabinet and he got well paid for publishing them, and so long as he could make . money by so doing he should continue it,’ Here we have the secret of this war upon Donglas.

When we think tbat it is ademocratic administration that suffers this defeat—a defeat not ouly springing and conscientious people, who cheered its ad . humiliating, however necessary the ordeal. It . years of the individual-sovereign system, the American Republic is satisfied with its own democracy, and utterly and maufully opposed to the introduction among us of those imperial and monarchial proscriptive tests aud personal distinctions which, outside of our own country, send noble heads to the block, and noble hearts into penal servitude,” “OccasionaL,’’ the Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Press, speaking of the Pennsylvania election says : . The blow has come upon the officials here like ja thandershock, They are still paralyzed, . Poor Covb is utterly chupfallen.

For the present, the position of Judge Dougias is not novel, we give below the remarks attributed to him, together with extracts from the speevhes of a num ber of other gentlemen, who hold to views precisely similar. . Douglas, in auswer to a question propounded . by Lincoln, said : . ‘The next question Mr, Lincola propounded }tome is: ‘Cau the people of a Territory ex(clude slavery from their limits, by any fair . means, before it’ comes into the baton asa . State’? TI auswer emphatically, as Mr. Lincoin . bas heard me answer a hundred times, on every stuinp in Tilinois, that, iu my opinion, the . people of a Territory can, by lawful means, ex. clude slavery before it comes in as a State. Mr, . Lincoln kuew that l had given that answer over aud over again. He beard me argue the . Nebraska Bill on that principle, all over the . State, in 1854-55 aud °56, and he has now no excuse to pretend to have any doubt upon that . Subject. Whatever the Supreme Court may . hereafter decide, as to the abstract question of . whether slavery may go in under the Constitu. tion or not, the people of a Territory have the . luwiul means to admit it or exetude it, as they please ; for the reason that slavery cannot exist u day or an hour woywhere unless supported by local pohee regulations, furnishing remedies aod means of enforcing the right to hold slaves. Those local and police reguiatious can ouly be furni-bed by the local Legislature, If the peo. ple of the Territory are opposed to slavery, . they will elect members to the Legislature who Will adopt unfriendly legislation to it, If they are for it, they will adopt the legislative meas ures friendly to” slavery, Hence, vo matter . What may be the decision of the Sapreme Court . on that abstract question, still the right of the people to ake ita slave Territory or a free Territory is perfect and complete uuder the Nebraska Bill,’”’ It will be seen that Douglas was peaking of positive facts, and told what could be done, not wiht should be done. He showed that the mere abstract right to bring slaves [nto a Territory» Was practically useless, unless a majority of the peuple of che Territory were friendly to the institution ; for cven if they did vot possess the right to exclude slavery, there was ne power that could couspel them to pass laws protecting the institution, Ou this point, Hon, Jas. L, Orr, of South Caroliua, the preseus Speaker of the House, is clear and explicit. In a debate in the House of Represeutatives, in December 1856, ou the power of Congress over slavery in the Territories, Mr, Ovr said : Tsay, although I deny that squatter soverviguty existyin the Territories of Kausas and . Nebraska by virtue of this bill, itis a matter practically of litthe consequence whether it dues or vot ; aud f think f shall be ab e to satisfy whe . gentleman of that, The gentleman kuows that we lave lvcal legistation aud local police regulations appertaining to that institution, without whieh, the institution would net only be valuless, Lat a curse to the commuuity, Withoat them, the slaveholder could not entorce his rights when invaded by others; and if you bad no local Jegisiation for the purpose bo value, Lean appeal to every gentleman upou this floor who represents a slaveholding constituency, lo attest the truth of what] have stated upon that poiat, “Now, the legislative authority of a Territo. the passengers, employees of the Company. . aud Mexicans, ou the arrival of tbe mail, and j its trausportation across the couutry, The araccommodate one huudred and fifty passengers, the number expected by the first arrival from San Francisco, [ write in haste, and give you the followiag particulars of the trip, and also the list of passengers, * } The steamer Qnaker City left New Orleans . jat 8 o’cluck A.M, the 27th October, with mail . and’ passengers, and arrived at Minatitlan at . 10 o'clock a.
