Mr. Stephens then referred to alien suf
frage arid squatter sovereignty, as pretexts
of opposition to the Kansas bill, used by
the American party, and upon the doctrine
of alien suffrage, quoted from Mr. liux’s
late letter in which that gentleman had sta
ted broadly that Mr. Buchanan wa- the first
to suggest a departure from the doctrine of
citizen suffrage, in a letter written by him
in 1*17. Thi* was not true—so far from it,
the doctrine of alien suffrage, or the doc
trine of clothing with the elective franchise,
in iIm TmUotiesa persons other than cilti-
xsna, urns *» old * thi government itself—
nag, older, because It had been recognized
in the ordinance of 1787,'which was enact
ed by the Congress of the Confederation,
before the adoption of the Federal Consti
tution. The ordinance was enacted in 1787,
aud it wns afterwards, on the 7th of August,
1789, (Washington being President of the
United States) re-enaeteil and confirmed by
the Congress of Ihe United States. Its pro
vision upon the subject of sufl'rage was us
tollows: *
“ So noon as there shall he five thousand
free male inhabitants of full age it the dis
trict, upon giving proof thereof to the Gov
ernor, they shall receive authority with lime
and place te elect Representatives from their
counties or townships to represent them in
the General Assembly. * * Provided.
also, that a freehold in fifty acres of land in
the District,.having been a citizen of one
ot the States, and boiug a resident in the
District, or the Hire freehold and two year's
residence in the District, shall be neecssary to
qualify a /nanus an elector of a Represen
tative ”
This was the provision of the ordinance
ol 1787, enacted before the formation of the
Constitution,'and afterwards confirmed by
the Congress of the United Slates, George
W ashington signing the bill, which con
firmed it. It ought to be more objectiona
ble to the opponents of alien suffrage, than
the provision of the Kansos act in relation
to suffrage. By the provision of the Kan
sas act, citizens were allowed to vote at the
first election, and aliens teho had deciaecd
intention to hceonn citizens, and would take
an oath to support the Constitution of tin Foi
led States and thr Kansas art. By the pro
vision of the Ordiuaneo of 1787, citizens ol
the United States resident in the Territory,
and owning fifty acres of land, were author
ized to vote, and men were allowed to vote
who had resided in the Territory for two
years and owned fifty acres of laud. These
men might have been aliens in heart as well
as in fact, for they were not required, as the
electors (other than citizens,) were by the
Kansas act, to have declared their intention
to become citizens, and to have purged their
consciences of allegiance to a foreign gov
ernment, by taking the oath which t- re
quired in making this declaration of inten
tion, as well as an oath to support the Con
stitution ef the United States and the Kan
sas act. The aliens, authorized to vote hv
the Kansas act, were inchoate citizens of
the United States—those authorized to vote
by the Ordinance of *87 were aliens in fact,
who had nut abjured nllegiance to the Govs
erntnents under which they were born, and
who never might abjure it, but might remain
forever aliens in heart. Mr. Stephens, hav
ing thus shown that the provision of the
Ordinance was a further departure from the
doctrine of citizen suffrage than that of the
Kansas bill, proceeded to show that it had
been re-enacted by Congress, in 1700,
(Washington still being President,) in the
bill organizing the Territory of Tennessee;
in 1798, tlie hill organizing the Territory
of Mississippi, and afterwards tit various
times, in hills organizing the Territories ol
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan. In
the Clayton compromise, (for which Mr.
Calhoun voted) in the Oregon bill, in tho
Minnesota hill, and in the Washington bill,
there was a deviation from the language of
the Ordinance of 1787—the language used
upon the subject of suffrage being identical
with that employed in tlte Kansas act. In
the bills for the organization of the Terri
tories of Missouri, Arkansas, New Mexico
and I lah, the elective franchise was restrict
ed tu citizens. Mr. Stephens contended
from this review "l the action of the
government that the weight of precedent
was tu favor of alien suffrage, and that the
prtncipl" was older than the Constitution
itself, although Mr. Mill had contended
that it was originated hv Mr. Buchanan,
in 1817. Me farther assorted that there was
no danger in this principle to the South—
that aliens were not so much to be dreaded as
Abolitionists, tMat the foreign vote in tho
last Presidential election was cast fan over
whelming majority ol it,) against Fremont,
and that foreigners would always act with
the South, because their rights were depen
dent upon the maintenance and strict con
struction of tho Constitution to which the
Democratic party and the South were pledg
ed.
Upon the subject of squatter sovereignty,
which the American party asserted was re
cognized by a portion ot the Democratic
party in their, construction of the Kansas
act, Mr. Stephens said there was no differ
ence in the construction given to that bill
by its northern and southern supporters, that
whatever difference existed between them
upon the doctrine of squatter sovereignty,
originated in a difference of construction,
not of thr bill, but of the Constitution —
Some contended that Congress, under the
Constitution, had the power to legislate up
on tbe subject of slavery in tlie Territories,
and having it, bad granted it by the bill to
the people of the Torrilory, in its status as a
Territory. Others denied that Congress
had this power, and of course, denying that
it had it, denied that it was granted to the
people by the bill. The question was one
of constitutional construction, and the Su
preme Court had determined it in the Dred
Seott case, by declaring that Congress did
not have the power to legislate slavery into
or out of a Territory, and could not grant it.
Squatter sovereignty was now a constitu
tional impossibility. Mr. Stephens, in this
connection, referred to a resolution, one of
a series introduced by the American candi
date for Governor, Mr. Hill, in a public
meeting at LaGrango on the 27th of June,
1857, in which it was declared—
“ That what is known as the ‘Drod Scott
Decision,’ is but a judicial affirmance of the
position occupied by the American psrty of
Gsorgia from the beginning, and is a direct
condemnation of the Kansas-Nebraska hill,
its.plottou and stifiporters, ss a set of clam
orous agitators, dividing the country for
nothing) And ondangering the South and
Union Tor vot?s, and only votes,"
He showed the impudence and eflVontery
of this resolution, in claiming that the Deed
Scott decision was “ a judicial affirmance of
the position occupied by the American party
from the beginning, and a direct condentna-
ttion of the Kansas-Nebraska act," when
the fart was that it had taken front that par
ty a pretext of opposition to that net, which
it had used industriously. He .showed, too,
that Mr, Hill, in denomiring the “ plotters
and supporters of'the Kan.-as-Ncbraska bill,
as a set of clamorous agitators, dividing the
country for nothing and endangering the
South and Union for votes, and only votes,”
had denounced almost the entire southern
representation in Congress, the peoplo ot
the South, the people of Georgia, and the
American party of this’ State. Southern
representatives in Congress, with very few
exceptions, voted for the act. Mr. Hill had
denounced thorn. The people of the South
had sustained those who voted for it, and
repudiated those who opposed it. Mr. Hill
had denounced them. The people of Geor
gia had through their legislature, instructed
their representatives t" vote for tt. Mr.
Hill had denounced them, and lastly the
American party of Georgia in State Council
at Macon, on the 27th of June, 185&, had
endorsed the act, declared tliat opposition to
its principles in relation to slavery was hos
tility to 'he constitutional rights of the
South, and that any one opposing it was
unfit to he recognized as a member of the
American partv.and Mr. Hill had denounced
this party in denouncing the “ plotters.and
supporters of the Kansas-Nebraska act. as
a set of clamorous agitators, dividing the
country lor nothing, and endangering the
South and Union for votes, and only volt s."
Mr. Stephens then finding that his time
was nearly exhausted, said that he had sta
ted in his address to tho voters of tiie Dis
trict that during the time he had represented
it, he had heard of tin complaint of any sin
gle vote he had given in Congress, that In
reiterated the statement, and asked, us n
matter of right, that his competitor, who
wua about to reply to him, and who
trying to oust hint from itis seat in Congress,
would designate the vote or votes given by
him, to which lie objected, or of which he
or the party he represented, complained.—
lie was, in a certain sense upon trial, and
was entitled to know the counts in the in
dictment against him.
Mr. Stephens then resumed ins seat-, hav
ing been frequently interrupted in hi- re
marks by the enthusiastic cheers ol his aud
itors, and Mr Miller proceeded to reply to
hint.
