After some enlivening airs from the BB Band, Mr. S., arose with great physical weaknd subjects of legislation, under the Constitution, are thesame, and to be left to the courts and'not to Congress. If he erer ottered a sentiment differ ent from those now presented on this subject, in the many speeches be.bas made upon it in the Senate, or on the stamp, I hare never met with it. The other day at Saratoga, in New York, he used this language. *'I believe in the equality of the States, and in the equal rights of the citizens of all the States in the Territories of the United States. Whatev er rights the citizena of any State may enjoy in the Territories pertain alike to the citizens of all the States, and on whatever terms the citntan iff any StogMjtog sfryaiatotbe tteritorica with his ibepioueersof civilization who quit the old States for new homes in the West, to form and regulate their own domestic institutions in their own way and make all other laws, according to their liking. It was in this way our fathers settled this goodly land, and made the wilderness to blossom as the rose. They were all “squatters” in the popular slang of the day. When they want, ed slaves they tbad them, aua I am perfectly will ing that their descendants, with emigrants from all the other States who collonise and settle our broad Territories, shall exercise the same righto of self-government that they did. If these opin ions -»«*» a man “a squatter sovereign,” then 1 cies of property has to move there, and carry his property with him. Mr. Doolittle—Will the honorable Senator al low me— Mr. Douglas—I am replying to the Senator from Mississippi now, and would prefer, therefore, to go on. Mr. Doolittle—I .wish to put a question to the honorable Senator from Illinois on that point. Mr. Douglas—1 desire to deal with this point now. At another time, the Senator can present his point. The right of transit, to, and from the Territories, is the same for one species of proper ty as it ia for all others. Thus tor, the Senator mind*. It ia onetbat the country expects an an swer to, by those who left the convention, because of the principles adopted, and whose secession has produced the strifes and divisions that now per vade the land. The only answer to it I have yet .seen, baa been given by a committee of the seced ing delegation from this State. It is in their ad- grass, assigning the reasons for tbeir course. It will he reeoUeeted, that though they quit the con vention at Charleston, yet by great efforts made, were by argent solicitations reappointed to Balti more, via Richmond. Bat they did nut enter the convention at BaUimcss after they got there, and for not doing so, gave tea reasons : ■ We copy the following from the resolat^ffll Vjopted by the Democratic State Convention at Killedgeville on the 16th of June, 1845 : i “Rttolvtd, That all efforts of the AbolitiontiU, tor others, made to induce Congress to interfere with ■leetions of slavery, or to take incipient steps in ' Relation thereto, are ealeulated to lead to the most alarming and dangerous consequences ; and that all such efforts bars an inevitable tendency to di minish ib« happiness of the pnople, sad eadanger the stability and permanency of the Union, and (moitnet tube mnsfwutaead by asm friend ter Mr MiHtiril iMliiMturi.’' urged ai -ainat this ticket friend* of the otli.r ticket j Democratic party.
