I 1 From the Neu> York Evening Day Hook. A ARB THE PEOPLE COMPETENT FOR SELF GOVERNMENT 1 *= In the late debate in ilie Senate of the Uni- __ ted States, Then certain loading members of that body improved the occasion to define their jwsi tiona on the groat question of the day, Mr. Douglas advanced the opinion that if the Democratic candidate in 1&C0, occupied (he ground contended for by Messrs. Mason, Hrown, Davin, roi and other*, such candidate would fail to carry a ingle northern Slate ! This "opinion" of the nn distinguished Senator, or rather this prediction that the party would (ail to MiPluiund at tlio North if it Ventured t" n:<? t ?li?? real question Nl before the country openly and honestly, as it jj( and all other questions should he, and in a land i. Allliol'ti.l mil u ?1..> i'C vvfcwsv vpi irrvu i" j t?tv 1,1 ,,fS power, deserves lobe thoroughly inquired into, ' and Unsoundness, or tlie opposite, iiiu.de appa- Of rent to the "party" tit least, if not to ihe wliolo ? people. Mr, I>ougl?s says that if the Democratic can- j nn didnte in I860 occupics the ground assumed in ; th( We speeches of Messrs. Davis, Mason, Brown, I - ~ *t?., then such candidate will fail u> carry a] single northern Stale, and consequently that the i liepubliciris?the [jr'-at sectional party of the j j, Nortli?tvd. take possession of the central Gov-I einiii."ii. W ell, admitting the premises of Mr. j J)nug ;s !<>: a moment, whitl are iho inferences i pri or conchis tins to lie drawn from them? Clearly , wj( and uiiuvmliilily either that, the position of j Messrs. Davis, Drown, &?*., is wrong per te, nr. t the people are too ignorant and prejudiced in | nd< perceive its justice or to deal honestly and justly ' f)ir by their brethren of the South. One or the j other of these inferences must lie accepted l>y ! Mr. Douglas and his friends, for one or the other I the is the logical, legitimate and, indeed, tiimvoida ' Hn| ble conclusion from the premises thus gravely I assumed in the recent debate by that dis- ! 5 tinguished gentleman. Which, then, "will j tisi tbey accept? Will they say the position J. of Messrs. Davis, &.C., is wrong? liardly, we; j think. That position is easily understood. It was do- I ; clared that this Union was u federation of hov- j Wi ereign States, and the Territories being the I tj^common property of the citizens of the States, j 11 were entitled to equal rights in these Terri- ; lories?the Virginian to the same protection for t>.\: his property in ihe person of his "negro slave" I as the New Yorker lor his property of any kind. ' In short, tho position assumed was thnt lately ; ^ announced by the Supreme ("ourt?the right of. |on southern citizens to occupy Ihe cuniiiion Territo- j . lies with their 44 slave property, and to rcceive f the snmc common protection ucoorded to citi- : w'' 2cii6 of the North. Will Mr. Douglas (in his j We private capacity) dispute this claim of the mm 1 ,jla of the South? Will he venture to say that it! is unjust, or unconstitutional, or anti-Democratic, j or in contradiction to reason or common sense. i 'j or that it is wrong in an\' respect whatever? . Will he or will any of his Irientls question ; 13 tho morality of his claim of the South, or veil- I cen ture t" sny that, as an isolated question, outside i oft of and independent ot political and constitutional ! considerations, tlinl it is wrong or immoral to! protect slave property? We presume not. Of j P-r course we do not pretend to understand Mr. i Doug!.!*' piivnt** views of this question bui wc j think we liazurd little ill saying that ho has no j 1 conscientious scruples in this matter, and, more- say over, readily admits that southern men arc justly gIC entitled to that same coinmon protection for their j '* slave" property lhat is given to other specie* of propnrty. Th( And if we are riplit. in iliia supposition, if tha Mr. Douglas positively admits that the position, of Col. Davis, Senutor Mason, and others, ?s just and constitutional, or iu oilier words, that c southern citizens are entitled to the same protection for iheir "slave" property in the Tcrri- ?'" 1 torios that is usually accorded to other species of mm property then we are forced of necessity to tho other conclusion, that a majority of the northern people are too ignorant to understand, or loo CU uniiuiicai mj uumii, uiin jusiunu reusunuuic cimui of the men of the South. Mr. Douglas, in ?f- Icni feet, says: It is right and proper per sc lo pro- r tect 'slave' properly, and Soutliern citizens, owniiiE this species of property, are entitled, under the Constitution, to its protection iu the Ter y ritorics, but the northern people nre so ignorant, so prejudiced, so unjust and dishonest in their ' dealings with the man of the South, that a po- The litical parly which dares to openly and candidly in I avow its readiness to thus deal fairly with jg Hl all sections and all classes of citizens is are to be defeated," and, as he predicts, Pfts unable to carry a single State north of the Do] Potomac I inv Substantially, Mr. Douglas and others like him, coustantly repeat that they themselves are '' sufficiently intelligent to understand this ques- Pro tion, and liberal und honest enough to do justice the to the South, but the majority of the people of the North are so ignorant and so deluded by Uritish and Abolition writers, that thoy will vote 'I against any party that is honest enough to pro- II)ei claim its design to deal fairly by the men of the t]1R South! Is this so? A re tlu* majority of northern voters thus ignorant, prejudiced and dishoti- to est, thus incapable of understanding their du- J ties, or thus b;?se ami dishonorable in their Qai. Pnl?ti.k..o in tUsAm A.I1/V... ll. ! ill short, are tliey thus incompetent to under* stand or to perform the duties of self-government 7 We, nt least, will not b?li?ive this ) slander on the northern people. Wo believe ^at they fire fully competent to understand ami . sufficiently honest and patriotic tj fulfill nil the duties of good citizen ship, .State and bal national, aa intelligently and promptly as Mr. Douglas himself, or any other politician. Hut were it otherwise, were the northern 1 penp'e utterly ignorant and bewildered on this ipi'Miou <if slavurv, and thus led away by . prejudice, refuse to deal justly by their brothren of the South, what thenf What is the the duty of Mr. L>ougla* and all others who are |jne not tliuo ignorant, prejudiced and deluded} Why obviously to enlighten the northern ? luind?to stand themselves openl3* and man- 1 fully by the truth, and thus honestly dis Hat cussing the question before the people, strive We to change the opinion of the majority to the side ( ^ , of justice and fair dealing. And even if lux * prediction prove true, the battle may still be ''aM wou though the election be lost?the mind of fror: the North so prepared, that though the reac- t|,e lion was not rapid enough to prevent the sec- ? tionaiisls getting into power, it might prevent them from doing any mischief. ' ll The Paraguay Expedition.?Authentic intel- ?,UJ ligence from Huenns Ayres confirms the report that President Lopez hud agreed to settle the difficulty with the United States amicably. Judge Rowlin had gone as far as Aacimcion, and it is * said that n treaty of friendship, commerce and Car navigation between Paraguay and the United w|,j States was signed on the 9th of February, nt that .r place. This treaty opens (o our commerce, and al acc iropliahes one of the objects Lieut. I'age was ahareod with effectimr. when, in 1852. he was trirl fired npon the Water Witch. The J.fi Plata gj,c with its tributaries is oue of the largest rivers on the American continent, and its navigable witters '11 communicate with a region of country embra- l',e cing 800,000 squaie miles. An expedition red, which has secured the -commercial advantages ^ which will arise from taking the seal off of audi an important avenue to trade, is well worth its l'je cost., and it will not he long before our enter- eho prisint! countrymen will be reaping the advan* jn \ mees which ii opens to them. A great deal of i ridicule has been cast upon the Paraguay expediiioii, and it has bten devoted to defeat and n'^ disnsti-r by half the journals of the country, arrc Measured by its results, it has been a most sue- be a pcasfiil expedition; for it has accomplished all that fi ha* been desired without a drop of blood being hed. Our commerce has obtained new con- wor cessions, the flag of our country will be hereafter more respected, and the relations between our own mid the South American governments will V be more secure and lasting from the exhibition gu\il f the power and disposition we have to redress injuries wantonly perpetrated against our righU, Ke8' national and individual.?Phila.
