Revolution. Well, the right of Revolu tion is admitted, but claims resting on that foundation must be made good by success. The vsry assertion, however, ol such doctrine, is an abandonment of the argument. An elaborate effort has been made to es trblish an identity of relation between the Colonics to Great Brilian, and a Territory to the United States. The opinion of Mr M adison on tint causes of t!i? Revolution is h* follows . I will tiiank tny friend to rem! it. ' Tho fundamental principles of the Involution was, that tho Colonies wore eo ordinate weathers with each other, and with Great Britian ; of an Empire, united by a common Executive sovorign. but not united by any common legislative soverignj- The Legislative power was maintnined to be as complete in each American parliament, as in the British parliament. And the rovul pierogative w aa in fmce in each Colony, by virtue of its ncknowleding the King tor its Executive Magistrate, -is it was in Great Britian, by virtue of a like acknowledgment there. A denial of these principles by Great Britain, and the assertion of them by America, produced the Revolution." Mr Madison adds, in substance, that tacitly, and for convenience. Great Britain was allowed to regulate the trade with foreign Nntions, and between the different parts of the Empire. But, when it was asserted that Parliament could legislate for the Col rnics in all cases uh oecer, it provoked such enquiry as sheweu :t could do so in no case whatsoever. If then thoy btHnd in relations identical or nnalogous, what is the true condition of the Territories 1 They are co-ordinate members yvuh each other, and with the United States, of a common Empire. The Legislative power in the Territories is as complete as in the Status and in the Congress. And, Congress has no right to make laws for them in any case whatsoever. ? nvnr, iruiy are rti^u pretensions, Tina, il well founded, the action of the federal Gov eminent, in relation to the Territories, from the beginning, has been and idle farce. i^et uh now taken practical view of the question, nnd see how we stand in relation to it. Anterior to 1850, the acquisition of Territorv from Mexico brought into full play the hostility of a large portion of the North to the system of African slavery, as it exis ted id the South, and revived the old question of sectional power. The conflict between the parties became so bitter and intense, that the Union shook to its centre.? Strenuous efforts were made to allay the sti rm. Tl e panacea lor all the troubles ol the Government was applied, and a com promise awaged the distemper for a moment By the very act of compromise, Texas was dismembered, the Executive proviso in re lalion to California ratified? thus excluding the slaveboiding Slates from the chance to enjoy the benefit of that rich acquisition ? There were some acta indebted to be compensatory. The question, however, not being fully settled, it passed over to the Congress of 185-1 That body, then, took up the Territorial question for tiiial sett lenient The cireuiiistaces attending the matter, are of such recent occurrences that I will only allude to them, by saving, that one portion of the Democratic party, held thai ( ongrc.-s had the right to prohibit slavery in a Territory, and sought to induce the exerciss of that powei. The o'her portion, not only denied the right, hut utiiruied llmt, slnvery war recognized in "he Teriitory, and pro teeted there by the Constitution. The sub ject heeiitne so vexatious, and so fruitful of evil, that both sides agreed to banish it front the Hulls of Congress, and abide the decision of the Supreme Court of the United Slates, as to which view was correct.? Hence, by the "Kansas-Nebraska act," Congress conferred all 'he power of local legis lation which it had, on the Tcrritoiies, to be exercised bv them, subject to the Cnnstilnlinn of the United States with the Supreme Court as interpreter, if that tribunal, upon appeal, should decide that Congress had the right to prohibit slavery in the Territory, then, (Congress having conferred all the power it hud on the subject, to the Territorial Government) the Territorial Government could likewise do so. Hut, if the Su preme Court should decide that Congress had no such right, and tliut slavery was re cognized and protected in tin Territory, by the Constitution, then, of course the Territorial Government had no such right, and could not prohibit it there, Hut, on the contrary, standing in the place of Congress, and as its agent, like Congress, ii i\ ould be bound, not ! only to tolerate, but to protect property in nlares, us it would nil other kinds of property. And, when the inhabitants of the i erniory, hi me proper manner, became the people of a Stale, tin y could, and would, like all other States, deal with the subject as they pleased. It'this be the nrritgemeiil, it is wise and just, and for one, I am willing 1 to abide by it. Hut, some new ideas have I recently been advanced on the subject, and, if thoy prevail, must destroy every feature of a wise and just arrangement, and leave it a delusion and n sr. a re. Let us glance at some of tliem.' It is nllirmed that a Territorial I.egislalatnro may, within the limits of the Constitution, bv doing, indirectly, w hat it cannot do directly, accomplish all the purposes of plenary power over the subject. First, by *iinf riendiy legislation. Secondly,non-action, i and as ancillary to these, by limiting the j jurisdiction of the Courts. I deny them all. The potency of "unfriendly Legislation" is to exhibit itself by discrimnaling systems of taxation, and by a perversion of this taxihg power, ?? well as by non-action. Let us consider them. The power to tax is vested in all constitutional Governin -nta. and t especially in our American systems, for lire j purpose only of raising revenue?revenue. ] the main purpose of which is to protect the ; property, out of which it arises, as well as 1 the persons who own it. To maintain,! therefore, that the power to tax, can, w iihiu the limits of the constitution, be us d with i a view to destroy the very thing lor which it is vested as means of protection, is an ab- , surdity 1 will venture to uthrm that there [ cannot be found in the civilized world where i constitutional Governments prevuii, a res Iiectahle court that would not dechue such | .cgisiaiiuii unconstitutional and void. Hence the importance of keeping the 1 ' courts onen to meet tin- imfri?i./ti?/ t ....i-i- I - - j - a1 '" i lion, nn?1 the etlecta of nun action And | hence the anxiety to clo*e then), that such purpoxfs niny become elK-ctual. f itffirLit t.'iat tbe cuuriM, Territorial and Federal, in their proper order, will and muni < take jurisdiction of all cau.-en properly in- < atituted, to determine the ri^htx of proper ty, no mutter whether tlint property be in alnvea, clockn or oxen And, lliey will , have jurisdiction under the constitution, , Without statute. Hut, if a Territorial-l?eg ialature should undertake to limit the juria ' diction cf its courts, no as to exclude the I rights of aluv.- owner*, then f under'ake to i aay thai, huvto# lliua manifested t> purpo?e ( to nu>ka wsi upon pioperty instead ot giving it protection, it has ceased to perform the j 1 main (unction of Government, and outfit to ' be uboliaiied. No one having a just concep- | rion of the object* of Government, can lies- I |( I title to any that any Government, of what- ( . ever fo.io. wherever existing, ?* I leh dolih- | erateiy, and a* a ?y*t?,UJ, leeKeS WsT on tA?

I have presented also inv views of I the lending issues before you, with candour and 1 hope with becoming deference. I trust however, I am not one of those so in- j cased in the armour ot self-conceit that lite i penetration of any ray of light will be int. ' possible. I do not cultivate tliat kind of j consistency, which cat, contumaciously confront the truth in spite of conviction. Hut my opinions, though not elaborated with the care and preciasion dm to the occasion. are deliberate. They are before von to be vnnvuoued, criticised, adopted or rejected, aa they may have in them the force of truth, or the weakness of error. As to the future of the South, who can compass it? What prophet's eye can pierce the veil? Who can foresee the full bearing and final disposition of the munv contingencies which come athwart its destiny. These determine the future, and they are for the pen of higher powers. X'*'* we kno a?should distraction, \ aeiihition, weak ness prevail ? if the South shall draw her counsel front love of ease or fear of danger, from, unwise heat or noisy selfishness, then her destiny is dark. If united counsels, wisely governing, shall |dant her on her rights, and maintain her there with the firiu ness of calm conviction, the future brightens, and her duty will be dune. Ijf K fiiijfi.
