in nearly nil the States, hut was more -roils and of more serious concernment South than in the North, on nccoant of 1 rftj differences of climate alul productiomand viis foreseen, that, for the same reasons, while Vs population would diminish, and sooner or ter! cease to exist in some States, it might in others. The peculiar character and Loailude of this question of loeal rights, not in rial relations only, but still more in social caused it to enter into the special stipule lions'of the constitution. Hence, while the general government, ns well In-the enumerated granted it. ashy those enumerated, and therefore refused to it. was forbidden to touch this matter in the sense of atmckoroffenoe.it was placed under the general of the Union, in the sense of defence dust either invasion or domestic Mother local interests of the several I S'ate expressly stipulated, as well for itself for each and all of its citizens, and every of each State became solemnly bound by his nlbgianoe to the constitution, that uny person, held to servico or labor in one State, escaping another, should it, in consequence of any or regulation thereof.be discharged from iK-h service or labor, hut should ho delivered up claim of the party to whom such service or labor might due by the laws of his State.

Thus, and thus only, by the reciprocal guaran IV ef all the rights of every State against inter rence on the part of another, was the present firm of government established by our la bel's nnd transmitted to us; and by no other means is it possible for it to exist. If one State ceases to the rights of another, ami obtrusively jut rmeddles with its local a portion of the assume to impose their instimtions on the others, nr refuse to fulfil their to arc no longer united friendlr States, hut distracted, hostile ones, with little capacity left of common advantage, but abundant of reciprocal injury and Practically, it is immaterial whether aggres. interference between States, or lie refusal on the part of any one of them to with Constitutional mitigations, arise from erroneous conviction or blind prejudice, iller it be perpetrated by direction or indirection. Iu either case.Yt is full of threat nnd of ilanger lii the durability ot the mnn. ('l)XSTITirriON'At.

It has been matter of painful regret to see States, conspicuous for their services in founding this Republic, and equally sharing its ad vantages, disregard their constitutional ohligitionsto It. Although conscious of their inability to heal admitted and palpable social evils of their vn.

and which are completely within their jurisdiction, they engage in the offensive hopeless undertaking of reforming the domestic institutions of other Stntps wholly beyond their control and authority. In the vain pursuit of ends, hy them entirely unattainable, and which they may not legally attempt to compass, they peril tint very existence of the constitution, and all the oral less benefits which it hasoonferred. While tho people of the northern States confine their ut'uitiim to their own affairs, not presuming "fiir "islv to intermeddle with the social institutions the northern States, too many of the inhabitants of the latter are permanently oignnized in to indict injury on the former, by wrongful acts, which would because of war ns I'-Iween foreign powers, and only fail to be such in our system, because perpetrated under cover the Union. It is impossible to present this subject as truth and the occasion require, without noticing the reitered, but groundless allegation, that the South has persistently asserted claims and obt daed advantages in the practical administration of the general government to the prejudice of the North, and in which the latter has That is, the States, whioh either promote or tolerate attacks on the rights of persons and of property in other States, to disguise their own injustice, pretend or imagine, and constantly aver, 'hat they, whose constitutional rights are thus systematically assailed, are themselves the aggressors. At the present time, this imputed aggression, resting, as it ies, only rn the vague deelamatnry charges of political agitators, re-o'vos itself into misapprehension.or misinterpretation.

It is mere delusion mid I'rejiidiee. therefore, to speak of Louisiana as in the special interest ot the South. I he patriotic and just men. who participated in that aet.wi re influenced by motives tar uhove sectional -aloii'i -s. It was, in truth, the fb'rat event, which, hy completing for us the Possession of the valley of the Mississippi, with ''oinuterciul access to tin- Gulf of Mexico, impurIj'd uuilv and strength to the whole coafedugation, an 1 attache I together iiv indissoluble ti's "n- Hast uu tiie West, ns well as the North (ho South.

Moreover, it wa-an acquisition daman led hv the commercial interests anu of the whole Union.

the meantime, the people of the Lniteil States hail grown up to a proper cmiisOioushoss ftrciigili, un i in brief Contest with ranee, ami to a secoud war with Great Hritrr.ii, they Imd shaken off all which remained of undue reverence for Europe and emerged from the atmosphere of those transatlantic influences which surrounded the infant Republic, and had begun to turn their attention to the full and systematic development of the internal resources of the Union. Among the evanescent controversies of that period, most conspicuous was the question of regulation Congress of the social condition of the future States to be founded in the territoiy of The ordinance fur the government of the er-t rit'u north-we-t of the river Ohio had contained a provi-ion which prohibited the of servile ther in, subject to the condition of the extradition of fugitives from service due in any other part of the United States. Subsequently to the adoption the constitution, this provision ceased to remain nw a law. for its operation as such was absolutely superseded by Rut the recollection of tact excited the zeal of social propagandism in some sections of the confederation; and when a second of Missouri came he formed in the territory of Louisiana, pioposition was made to extend to the hitter territory the restriction originally applied to the country situated between the rivers Ohio and Mississippi. Most unquestionable as was this proposition in all its constitutional relations, nevertheless it I received the sanction of Congress, with some slight modifications of line, to save the existing rights of the intended new State.

It was reluct: aiitly acquiesced in by southern Slates as a sai critice to the cause of peace and of the Union 1 not only of the rights stipulated by the treaty of Louisiana, but of the principl of equality I among the guarantied by the constbution. It was received by the northern States with angry and resentful condemnation and con plaint, he cause it did not concede all which they had exi acliugly demanded. Having parsed through the forms of legislation i it took it" pi ice injthe.statutc hook, standing open to repeal, like any act of doubtful to pronounced null and void by courts of law, and possessing no possible efficacy to control the rights of the States, which might thereafter bo organized out of any of the original territory of Louisana. In all this, if any aggression there were, any innovation upon pre-existing rights, to which portion ot the Union are they justly chargeable? This controversy passed away with the occasion, not hing surviving it save the dormant letter of the statu te. long afterwards, when, by the proposed of the Republic of Texas, the United States were to take their next step in territorial greatness, a similar contingency occurred, and became the for systematiz' attempts to intervene in the dome stic affairs of one section of the Union, in defiance of their right as States, and of the stipulations of the Constitution.

These attempts assumed a prae in shape ol persevering endeavors, by line of the in both Mouses of Congress, to deprive the Southern of the -opposed benefit of the provision- of the act authorizing organization of the State of Missouri. But the good sense of the people and the vital foree of the -dilution triumphed over sectional prejudiee and the political erroj- of the day, and the State of Texas returned to the Union as she was. with social institutions which her people had liosrti for themselves, and with express agreement by the reamiexiug act, that she. should be of subdivision into a plurality of States. Whatever advantage the interests of the Southern States, as sueh, gained by this, were far in suits, as they unfolded in progress of time, to those which sprang from previous concessions made by the South.

To every thoughtful friend of the the true ot their all who longed and labored for the full success of this great experiment of republican was cause ol gratulation that such an opportunity had occurred tc illustrate our advancing power on thi- and to furnish to the world additional assurance of the strength and stability of Uonstitntion. Who would wish to see Florida still a European colony Who would rejoice to hail Texas a lone sUr, instead of one in the galaxy of States? Who not appreciate the incalculable benefits of the acquisition of Louisiana? And yet narrow views and sectional purposes would inevitably have excluded them 1 from the Union. But another struggle on the same point ensued when our victorious armies returned from and it devolved on Uongress to provide for the territories acquired by the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. The great relations of the subject had now become distinct and clear to the perception of the public i mind, which appreciated the evils of sectional controversy upon tiie question of the admission of new States. Iu that crisis intense solicitude pervaded the nation.

But the patriotic impulses of the popular heart, guided by the admonitory advice of the Father of His Country, rose superior to all the difficulties of the incorporation of a new empire into the Union. In the counsels of Congress there was manifested extreme antagonism of opinion and action between some representatives, who sought by the abusive and unconstitutional employment of the legislative powers of the government to interfere in the condition of the inchoate States, and to impose their own social theories upon the latter: anti other represeuthlives who repelled the interposition of the general government in this respect, and maintained the self-constituting rights of States. In truth, the thing attempted was, in form alone, action of the general government, which in reality it was the endeavor, by abuse of legislative power, to force ideas of inter.ml policy, entertained in particular upon independent States. Once more the Constitution and Union triumphed signally. The new' Territories were organized without restrictions on the disputed point, and were thus left to judge that.par- i ticular for themselves; and the sense of constitution- i al faith proved vigorous enough in Congress not only to accomplish this primary object, but also the inci- ita! and hardly less important one.

judgment, to such a degree, that, by common consent it tvns observed in the organization of the Territory of ushington. When, more reeently.it became requisite to organ- ttic Territories Nebraska nnd Kansas, it was the natural and legitimate, if not the inevitable, con- sequence of previous events and legislation, that the same great and sound principle, which told already been applied to Utah and New Mexico, should lie applied to them that they should stand exempt from the restrictions proposed io the act relative to the State of Missouri. These restrictions were, in the estimation of many thoughtful men. null from the beginning, unauthor(j Vic the Constitution, contrary to the treaty Stipulations for the cession of Louisiana, nnd inconsistent with the equality of the States. Til had been dripped of all moral authority by persistent efforts to procure their indirect repeal throu 'h contradictory enactments.

They had been pnetiealiv abrogated bv the legislation attending thn organization of Ciali, New Mexico, nnd Washington. Ifanv vitality remained in them it would have been taken away, in effect, by the new territorial acts, in the form originally proposed to the Senate at the first ses-ion of the last" Congress. It was manly and ingenenus, as well as patriotic and just, to do this di rectiv and plainly, ana inns re.c.v.- of an act which' might be of possible future injury, but of.no possible future benefit, and the measure of its repeal was the final t.msuniation and complete recognition of the principle, that no portion of foiled shall utertake, through assumption of Cue powers of the general government, to dictate the social institutions of any other portion.
