Saturday, Feb. 24, 1849. Mr. Walker, during the course of his re marks in support of his amendment, and in reply to Mr. Dayton, said: Again, sir, in regard to tlie extension of tiio Constitution, the third objection of the Senator from New Jersey. And for what reason is the Senator from New Jersey opposed to the extersion of the Constitution, if it can be done by legislation, over the territories of California and New Mexico? Why, sir, his argument is, that the South claims that the Constitution gives them the right to take their slaves there and make it a slave country. lie asks no advantage from the South, he says, nor is lie willing lo yield any advantage. lie is op- 1 . i 1 i ii i Y *-* -i l ;i i ill ii y* because it will give to Ihe South what they claim as an advantage, anil will give them, ac cording to their idea, an advantage in political power over the North, lie denies, however, at the same time, that any such results, can really follow. Sir, my feelings upon the sub jectof slavery are, perhaps, ns well known here as those of any other Senator upon this floor. Hut sir, 1 say before this Senate, and before high Heaven, that I feel inj self incapable, en tertningany such feelings as those entertained by the Senator from New Jersey. If the Constitution will extend slavery to the land, then let it go. If by that Constitution slavery is extended, I am willing to.stand by that Con stitution. lam unwilling to withhold from our Southern bretheron any of the rights given to them by that sacred instrument. If by the operation of the Constitution they have any ad vantage, they may posters it. It is a sacred instrument, and I am willing to stand by it at any time. If any advantage is given to the Smith under the Constitution, they are enti tled to it. Let them not he excluded from its provisions. If its extension over new territo ry gives an advantage to the South, I am will ing to give them the advantage just to that ex tent. I may differ with them upon that ques tion, hut we will not quarel about that here.— I will not leave the room or give cause, for an array of one section against another—for cri mination and recrimination. I would say to the South: If the Constitution of the country gives you an advantage, it is but justsce that yon should receive that advantage. From me, as far as I am concerned, you may have it most ungrudgingly. lam not one to violate a Con stitution I have sworn to support, to cripple an institution which I condemn. No; take it. liut let the people of that distant country have the benefit of i.s protection extended :o them. Mr. Websteii, in reply to the remarks of Mr. Walker, and those of Mr. Butler, said. Mr. President, it is of some importance that we should reek to have clear ideas and correct notions of the question vvhieli tb'--r-'UiuirsUneuL of the honorable Senator from Wisconsin pre sents tons; and especially that we should seek to get some conception of wliat is meant by a proposition of law to extend the Constitu tion of the United States, to a territory. Why the thing is utterly impossible. All the legis latures in the world, in this genera! form, could not accomplish it: there is no congruity ; there is no case for the action of legislative power in such a regard as tnat. The Constitution why, what is it ? We extend tne Constitution of the United States, by law to a territory.— Well what is the first principle of th° Consti tution ? Why, is it not that all within its in fluence and comprehension shall be repre sented in the Jegistatnre which it establish es; shall have not only a right of debate, but a right of vote; that all shall have a repre sentation in both houses of the legislature 1 — Is not that the fundamental principle of the Constitution ? Does it not all rest upon that ? Can we by law extend that to a territory of the United States ? Everybody will sec that it is altogether impracticable. Well, the amendment goes on in the same way, and says, further, that the revenue laws shall, as far as they are suitable.be applied to this case. Now 1 should like to know whether that qualification of Ihe honorable member ns he it, applies as far as is suitable, to the Constitution itself; or whether he un derstands that qualification as applicable only to revenue laws of the United States which he proposes to establish in the territory. Mr. Walker. I would say this sir; that whatever may have been said in the discussion judfl ' ' a nil ■ be it, the a» ... the casr^n^^^fls!?H^^^P amentMioiut icaves every thing else exactly wherr.it is. NoV, if the gentleman will ha hind enough to tell me what principles of the Constitu tion he supposes suitable—what distinction Ire will draw between the suitable and unsuita ble, as applying to California—l shall bo bet ter instructed; but let me only say, sir, that in its general sense there is no such thing as extending the Constitution of the United States over a territory. The Constitution of the United States is established over the Uni ted States, and over nothing else. It can be established over nothing else than the existing States and over new Sta'es that shall come in hereafter; when they do come in they then come under the Constitution. There is a con fusion of idea, sir, in this respect, which is , quite remarkable among intelligent gentle men, and especially among professional and judicial characters. It seems to be taken for granted that the right of trial by jury, of habeas carpus, and every thing in the Constitution of the United States designed to protect personal liberty, by force of the Constitution, is extend ded over all acquired territory. That cannot be maintained; that proposition cannot be maintained at all. How do you arrive at it? Why, sit, by the loosest of all possible infer ences. It is asked, is it possible that those, our fell Ow-citizens, arc not entitled to the writ of habeas carpus and trial bv jury ? Yes sir, it is very possible, and very true, it is exactly so, unti the legislation of Congress gives them a arm of Government that lakes with it and n aintains these general principles of public l|>erty. Why, if the ideas of some gentleman; the hopes of some persons, were realized,find Cuba were to become a cession to the Unit# I States, to-morrow, does any body bupposei'iat the habeas carpus and trial by jury alt* ues itself to Cuba ? Why anv more, let mo aik, especially, the honorable Senator from slit It Carolina—why arc they entitled to theset ights any more than to our election laws Mt\ political franchises; and popular >ianvii%? Sir the whole authority of CilUi. gross olWiis subj l "oMSCOiiipnrfoil in flifU very short provision, that Congress shall have power to make nil needful rules and regulations re specting the Territories of the U. States. The world is “ territory ;” for it is quite evident that the farmers of the Constitution looked to our no v accessions to make new territories, hut as territories have been acquired from time to time, they have been regarded as with in that general scope and provision of the Constitution and are all governed by that. We have ne»er had a territory yet, either in respect to taxation, to representation or judica ture, or legislature, or anything else, but they have also had a Constitution peculiar to them selves. supposed to be appiopriate to their condition, and which Constitution is the law of Congress, establishing a territorial govern ment; and that territorial government may he one way, or it may he another way.— I need -.ot say, and do not say, that while we sit 1 1 re to legislate and pass laws for the Terntoiies, we are not bound by every one of the great principles of public liberty which were incorporated in our Constitution, and made tlfc foundation upon which it rests. We should be unjust to ourselves, to the spir it of the Constitution, to the cause of liberty and good government, if we failed to observe with religious scrupulousness, in the forma tion of n Territorial government, any one of these great, free, liberal conservative princi ples. These are the considerations that are to operate upon us in passing the law. These nrinciples do not or cannot in their own au ! thority, propria tignrc, attach to Cuba or any cession of territory made, because upon a ces sion ot territory to the United States that ter ritory does not become a part of the United ! Slates. I propose, sir, not to pursue this discussion but I do ask gentlemen, who are in the habit of discrimination—l asii the hou. Senator from South Carolina, particularly—to distinguish between the great principles that ought to govern us, while we pass laws for the govern ment <if territories, and thoso'principles which areiiiiterKit in our own system at home—part and parcel of the authority under which we act. and Irom which we are not at liberty in any case to depart. It seems to me that we we may take any part of the Constitution of the United States—because it is as clear as daylight that the Constitution of the United Slates makes no provision whatever for the government of the territories, except that pro vision which leaves it all to the discretion of Congress, regarding them as not of the United States, not a part and portion of the United States, but as a territory owned by tlie United States and the Union established under the Constitu'ion. Mr. Calhoun. Mr. President, I rise, not to detain the Senate to an extent, hut to make a few remarks upon the proposition just ad vanced by the Senator from New Jersey, (Mr. Dayton,) endorsed in full by the Senator from New Hampshire, (Mr. Hale,) and partially en dorsed by the Senator from Massachusetts, (Mr. Webster,) that thu Constitution of the United States does not extend to Territories. Nojw.sir, lam very happy to hear litis propo sition iantwill have the effect of narrowing tlie controversy to a very great degree be tween pie North and the South as regards tlie slam.' question. It is an impelled admis sion on the part of these gentlemen to deny it; for if tm Constitution does extend to the ter- will be protected in its pro perty shield oHie Constitution, and you can put no other upon tlie opposition which have made to tlie extension of the few United Stales had made a decision mat the Constitution did not extend to the Territories hut by an act of Congress. I was incredulous, and I am now incredulous, that any tribunal pretending to have a knowledge ofoursystem of government should profess such a monstrous absurdity. Such a decision as that would be a significant omen. But, sir, I for one say it ought not, and never can prevail. The Ter ritories belong to us. They are ours, as repre sentatives of die States of the Union. We are the representatives of certain States of this Union, and whatever authority the United Slates have in the Territories extends to ns as well as to others. It is through the authority of the Constitution that they have become ours. Sir, there are some fjtiesti.ms that do not ad mit of argument. This is one of them. The mere statement carries with it the proof of the fact. 1 am rejoiced to hear gentlemen by implica tion acknowledge that if the Constitution be there, we are under its shield. The South wants no higher or stronger grounds to stand upon. Vou have put us upon high grounds. You have admitted that the only means of de fending your claims, and refusing ours, is to deny tiie existence of the Constitution in the Territories. The gentleman from Massachu setts, I say, only partially acknowledges it. lie acknowledges that the great fundamental principles of our Government may be carried there, lie is right in that. Now, sir, is there a more fundamental principle than this— that this is a Federal Union; that the States, as parts of the Union, are States to which the Territory belongs in that capacity tinder the Constitution? Is there a more fundamental principle than this—that there is a perfect equality between the memb 'rs of the Federal Union in all respects ? There can he none, sir. The Constitution forbids all discrimina tion which would subject one portion of the Union—nearly half the entire number—to the other portion upon any auction. ■ wr.-r.i. [,..fT l , g t -.rupr.'i:n itmggh imi ready to listen, if gentlemen choose to go on and show us by u hat ingenuity they can make out their case. It is a mere assertion to say that the Constitution does not extend to the j territories, l’rove that proposition. Prove that j it does not extend; that it is incapable of being extended. I hold the whole course of this debate to be triumphant upon this point. We are put upon higher grounds. We have much narrower grounds. It will he more easily understood where wo stand, when it is admitted that we are only outsted by ousting the Constitution. [to nr. continued.l CASCEItS CAN BE Cl'lCilD. IMPORTANT TO THE AFFLICTED AMONG THE MANY important discoveries and improvements of the present age, the ; undersigned lias it in his power to oiler to those ! afflicted, a remedy for Cancer, a disease liereto | fore deemed incurable. This remedy was dis i covered by l)r. 1!. Shepard, of Vermont, and ! made successful in his own case, after vigilant ■ trial and failure of ail other popular remedies with ; in Iris reach. Who, together with the undersign ed, have made application of said remedy to many 1 eases whir astonishing success. This remedy is ! free from all mineral, or vegetable poisons, and has been applied with eafety aud success to Cnn i cer of the tongue. i The undersigned carries the evidence of the I astonishing power of this remedy, who was af l dieted near ten years with a Cancer of the Eye, | and after a trial of Corrosive sublimate, Arsenic, | and various vegetable extracts, and washes, wilh ! out benefit, the remedy now' offered was implied ! and a sound and permanent cure of near three years standing is the result. This remedy is deemed certain in its hanpv ef fect, if timely application is made, before the dis- I ease reaches internal organs, or the case aggra i vated by improper remedies. CAUTION.—The undersigned has been an I eye witness to many cases of this dreadful malady, 1 ■ and has seen various methods of treatment, aiid ' believes all propositions to cure without 'win, as delusive, as no such case has met his obse-vatiou. There are some cases, from the organs impli i j cated, advanced age of the patient, or from mis i application, that rendered them hopeless, even to , the remedy now offered to the public, j- All persons who apply in person or by written , description of their case giving its size, location, j age,general health and habits, together wi.h the remedies that have been used, may expect a cau ' did answer as to the result of their case. ’ i It cannot be too forcibly impressed on those f | afflicted with Cancer, to make early application ' as delay is dangerous, and prolongs the hours of . suffering ill the cure. 1 now pledge inv honor, and refer to my liume | rous friends throughout the Southern States, that this remedy, in my opinion, has no equal, having , a peculiar affinity for Cancerous, while it is harm , j less to other flesh. Charges for Cure, Board and nursing will be I moderate. Letters addressed, post paid, will re ! ceive prompt attention. 11. \V JERNIGAN 1 1 P- S, —Those who wish to know my charac ' ! ter, will call on any of tile following gentlemen: i Dr. Wm. N.

From my long experience in the j business, 1 know they cannot be surpassed, al though agents for other shops have resorted tothe ! oiiteniptible practice of slandering me, and say ing my Gins have prostrated me, though it is net true. 11l full confirmation of what I say, I offer i a few certificates from gentlemen who have used my Gins, and could furnish many more of this kind if reqnired. Certificates* April 24, 1647.—Pear Sir: I have used the gin bought of you for two years, and I very cheer lully recommend it to the cotton planters of Ogle thorpe and other counties of Georgia. It turn* off" sufficiently fast to make good cotton. It be ing 50 saws will throw out about 800 lbs. of lint a day. The quality of the cotton has in Augusta ranged a half cent higher at each of my sales than other sales of those days, and it has been pro nounced, by those considered competent to judge, as in no way inferior to the Carver gin. Yours, very respectfully F. MERRIWETHER. Oglethorpe County, April 23, 1847. I have used, for the last three years, a machine that was made by S. R. Crenshaw, of Crawfordville. I consider it one of the best gins 1 have ever seen. Two small mules will gin, with a great deal ol ease, three bales per day, and 1 do not think there is a gin in Georgia that can excel it in making fine cotton In fact, Mr. Crenshaw has sold a great many gins in this comity and Elbert, and 1 think every man who has purchased is perfectly satisfied. All of his gins which have been sold in this county, and they are not a few, run light, pick fast, and w hat is better than all, when the cotton is carried to market, it sells for the very highest prire.

Hammack, last year, a forty saw anti-friction cotton gin, Which I performed as well as any gin I have ever seen ■ tried. It made cotton equal, in my opinion, to that of any of the Carvergins, which are so high ly praised for their cotton. My gin and giuhouse were consumed by fire, and as a report lias gone abroad that the house was fired by the gill, I lake Ibis opportunity to say, injustice to Mr. llam mack, that it is false. 1 think 1 can with confi dence recommend his gins to those wishing to pur chase, for this reason: his work is all done by a few and experienced hands, insleud of rough work men, as is generally the case where there arc j great many gins made.
