This sent imnenatof hostility has i- n'ot been confined, as for a long time it 0 seemed to be, to the violent expressions of a irresponisible popular mneetinigs, fur the h single, but wicked plurpose of agitattion, 5 nor to- the free and o1flsive p~ublications e from presses established by blind and a restless fainatics. It lies assumed a more n deliberate atnd determined form, evinicitng Sthe desigtn of sovereign commonwealths, >f and of Congress itself, to interfere with e the inistitu-tioni of slavery as it. was recog e nized and secured under the guaranties of n the federal compact, or ,as it has beetn, for -a long time allowed to exist under amica -ble compromises, that were thought, at the -. time they were entered into, to be sacred t and inviolable. r Teia .sovereign, States, in the space of -t one month, anud in rapid succession,: sent to it Congress, through their Senators and Rep. e resenta tiwes,resol utions of. one utiiforim anid e oippmesndy concerted import, to wit : stig 'matizing slavery as a sin an bihting -poiitical ev" iI a-'wtgig.- upon Conigress 'th~e duty oft't areting~ its, progress, by ex c m'iing ne be .holding. communfity from w-:raus 'U the occupation and., en. -'; ne fa f ..a '-iblic domain, hearafter to -g' .'yired' "y treaty or othierwise-. -.:"-:. ions, wvere no doubt in -. ,uggested by the Wilmnot b Pruviso, asit is termed, and are to be re egarded as solemn approvals of its policy a Thie propouition involved- in that proviso, , is nothing mnore nor less thatn this, that all 'the territory that may be acquired under a treaty with Mexico, and which it is-as r sumed will be acquired at the termiinatioin e of the war, is to he set apart for the use ,and settlement of the noti-slaveholding r portion of the confeduieracy, to the exclusioni s of the'South. In other terms, thiat terri 'tory that shall be obtained by joint exer ti tionts-and contributions, is to be parcelled d off~ to one set of inihabit ants to the exclusioni t of another .class; This discrimination I, evinces a preference for one. class by pre a supposing. the' degradation of tlis. other.

Abolitionists iow publsh, at Wasing. ton City, with boldness and ability a Newospaper said to be sustained by large and permanent contributions of: money. This organ, of -a strong party opposed to slavery. serves the -ppdrpose of controlling the movements of another class,- who are opposed to thie poilical power. of slave holders, .This-laper holds up for constn ing censure- as well the public men.of ie South, who may dare to vindicate the rights of slaveholders, as the statesmen of the North, who may manifest any scruples upon the propriety or constitutional com.; petency, of interfering with the institution of slavery. Formerly, the movemedis and conduct of the Abolitionists could he treat ed.by statesmen, of all sections, with ne glect or contempt. It is not so now. In the non-slaveholding Statets, no public man can be found, no matter what may be -his opinions, who can lift himself abovetthe. influence of this increasing, and.' )erhaps controlling power. The obvious-tendency and avowed design of the sentiments and measures referrod to, are to give .tozthe non-slaveholding State-s unlimited progres sin in the nequisition of territory, and in crease of political power, whilst the slave holding portion of the confederacy is to re main stationary, until a doomed ruin, de liberatejy devised and prepared, shall burst upon them without ihe power ofresistance. It is to subject one body in a fixed and quiet position, to the collision of a stronger body, put in accelerated motion agaidst it. it is subjecting the -fate of slaveholders to the insulting interference. and-hostile. ag gression of those, who, having the feelings ofjealous rivals, assume the office of arro gant guardians. Whatever may be the opinion of the slaveholding States, nowv or hereafter, concerning the policy of holding slaves. they will. have no discretion loft,. but will be- reduced to the conadition of abandoning thu use of - their propertyi.or holding it in-ignomninious -subserviency - to the dictation.of.others.; In effecL they are: to- be deprived of the freedoin -of -decision in.regard to their own rights. .

Tliis gives to Congressno maore than the power of a trustee to ho-Id such territory for the joint useof all the ownters, with no right to ex elude some for the beneflt if others, but to hold it for the benefit of such as .'na~y choose to sett le it for the purpose of selfgoveirnmient under 1-he organization of a State Couistitu' t0o. Such a discrimitation as is contend ed fo, is not oaly insulting to tme feelings of the States,- whose rights and privileges are to be abrogated, but is in Viniation of the pervading spirit of the Consiiulion it self, which was originally formed by equals andI was framed with- guarantees for the se curity and protection of all thme parties to it. If the Southern States had never en tered into the Federal Union, as confede& rates,-and it would be treason to suppose that they entered into such union except as equal confederates, they would have had an right to enjoy atnd use their property and pieculiar institutions,- withot the ino lestation of any power on earth, anid could1 have treated all such interferencee, as all hos:.ile aggressiods should be' treated by free and soveteign Statues. All the powers not delegated by Congress were as much reserved, as if no union had been formedd-. Yet it is through Congress we are to be debased and disfranchised of our rights. The derivative governtment which the Siates agreed to establish for the greater seecutity of their rights would thus become, indeed it is'l'apidly becoming, a treacherous vehiiclE offitisult, and a terrible engine of oppressionn-to- some of the -sove reign framers. These are supporting a governamenit that is continually devising nmeasures for their ruitn.
