Mr. Boyco said “Unicr these circumstances, I think I am authorized to consider this ques tion of slavery in the Territories as pure ly tpeadative.. Tru* statesmanship con sists in the pursuit of tho practical; for government Is a practical affair. As we can gain nothing practical by tho most ardent and suoce«sftil pursuit of this question, I think U is wise in us to dis pose of it for tlio present, by leaving it where the tbuetitutioa and the ’ Ihcd iScott decision now /dace it.” Here is a sensible view of a disturb ing question, and It is precisely tlie ground occupied by tho Constitutional Union party nml their candidate* in the Presidential canvass. Wo agree fully with tlio Breckinridgo men on tho abstract question of tho right of Hie Southern State* to protection for their property of overy kind in tlio Territo ries,‘ana would never^yield Mint right; but, and Mr, Boyoe very properly says, It is a “purely speculative” question, without tho slightest practical bearing In tho present condition of tho country, nnd it is folly unmitigated to make it an issue In a President ml campaign.
