All my miiiliood has been spent in Missouri, Ril l during nil this time, 1 have fol lowed a prolession which lull my character und cm ml uc l open to the observation of society, aud while it has been my constant habit fr ely to ex press my opiuiiiii oil publl: measures und public men the people ot Missouri ol all puriies, will bear mo witness that 1 have never oblriisivelv thrust tnvxeli forwurd in nimuit of olTi cit honors I have !uld no political office, and souiu none lor moru iha i twenty-five years. Uuder lliese ci.cuinsuinces I confess the gratifi cation which 1 lei l in receiving the recent iiiuni lehtaiions of 111 j respect tin I coiilidence ol my frllow citizens First, the Opposition ineinVrs ol the Missouri I egisluiurc declured their prelcr ence for me us u candidate. Then f.il lowed nomination by a U invention composed of the elements of the Op,osiiit)u in this State. And now the K'.'publicaus of Missouri, iu their separate Convention just b-KI In St L uis liuve r.nflirine J the nomination, and proposed, their delegates, to present me to the Katijiiul Couvemion, soon to b. hel l tit Chicago, us candidate for the fust ofiit!.j. in tin nuliou. Theso various demonstrations in my own Stale are doubly grin in to me., been use they ull'ord the strongest proof that my iianu his b. put forward only in u spirit of harmony uuJ with a hope of preventing ull division and con troversy among those who, tor their own safety and the public good, otihl to bo unite J in their action. For this am deeply gruleful; nnd so i'ttr concerns me personally, 1 must declare, simple truth, thai if the movement co no far ther, und produce no personal ivsuls, still I paid and overpaid for a life of labor, und whatever of ze.lous effort and patient watching I have been able to b stow in support ol a line of government policy which 1 believe to be the present and permanent good of the couti try. Now. gentlenion, I proceed to unsuvr your questions; briefly inleeil, but fully, plainly and vtitb ull jiossible fruukness ; hii I I do ttm more willingly, because I have received Irom inunv letteis too many to be sepa rately answered--aud I have seen many public journals articles mikiu urgent culls upon tor sucii a statement oi my views. First-- Slavery and it s Extension in the Ter ritoriea. On this subject, in the Stntes and in the Ter ritories, I have no new opinions no opinion lonncii in reunion to tne prevent array ol pur ties. I am coeval with the Missouri question of 1819-33, havino; begun my political lite the midst ol that struggle. At that lime my position required to fceek all the means of knowledge within my reach, and to study principle involved with all the powers of my mind, end I arrived at the conclusion which no subsequent events hove induced to change. The existence of nero slavery our country bad its beginning in the early time of the colonies, and wag imposed by the mother country, ugainst the will of most of the colo nists. At the time of the Revolution, and long after, it was commonly regarded os an evil, tem porary in its nature, aud likely to disappear the course of lime; yet while it continued, niis oriune to the country, socially and politi cally. Thus bus 1 laugtit by those who made our Government, and neither the new light modem civilization nor the discovery of a new system ul constitutional law and social philoso phy has enabled mo to delect the error of their teaching. Slavery is a social relation, a domestic insti tution. Withm ihaSuies itexists by the local law, and the Federal G ivernmeut has no con trol over it there. The Territories, whether by conquest or peaceable purchase, subject aud subordinate, nut sovereign, lilts States. The nation is snpreiui over them, an the National Government has the power to mit or turbid slavery within them. Entertain ing these views, I eui opposed to the extension of slavery, and in my opinion 1114 spirit and policy ot the Gjverutneut oujrhi to bj aguiust it extension. PRELIMINARY EXPLANATION. SECOND--Does the Constitution Carry Slavery into the Territories? very Yuv I answer u I The Constitution of the United Slates does not curry slavery into the Territo ries. With inui.li in jre show of reason, may be said that it carries slavery iuto all the Cut il does not carry slavery any where. It acts upon it where it Muds it est tblisln-d by local law. In connection with this point, 1 asked to stale my views of the Dred Scott case, and what w really determined by the Supreme Court in tha case. It isiuy opinion, carefully considered, that the Court determined one point of livv only. That i, that S-'oit, plaintiff, bain a ugro, of African descent, necessarily a slave, could not be oitlz n Missouri, and theretore could notsuj in the Court, and thit for this reason un.l aloue, tho Circuit Cjuh had n juris Jiciion lha tause and no power to give ju lament tween the parties. The ouly jurisdiction which the Supreme Court hid of tha Cause wss for pnrposdof correcting the error of the Circuit Court in assuming t'n pawer to JeciJe oa monitor the cme, I IThit power ths Sopremj Court did exercise bv letting aside Hi iu tg.nuui ot tne circuit court on thein-rits, and by dismissing the su t witb out any juhtujeut ff rr against either party. This is all that the Suptonni U nrt di I, all 10 it it had lawful p wur to do. I consider it Rival put'lio mislortune that several ol the learn -d Judges shoul I have thought that ii-ir du y re quiied Ihein to discuss and givo opinions upon various questions outsute ul tne e tse, es tne ease tva aotu tlly disposed uf by the Couit. All inch nniuious ure extra judicial and of no authority. But, b'snles ttns.it a pers to me that several ol th- questions so discussed by the Judges are po Illicit qne.V.ums, aud therefore bx-yuu l the juris diction of the judiciary ,'iudpro per only tube con sidt red and disposed of by the pol itical depart' ments. If I nm right in this, aud it seems to me plain, tho precedent is most un for tuuute, because it may lead t a (Uugerous conflict of authority among the co ordinate branches of the Oovcm intuit. THIRD—As to Colonization of the Free THIRD—As to Colonization of the Free Blacks. -tt For mmryeirs I have been oonnected with the America ii Colonisation Society, of which the rising young Stale of Liberia is the Qrst fruit. I consider the subject both humane aud wise.beu i lice n l alike to the free blacks who emigrate, mH to thi whiles whom they leave behind. But Africa is distatit, and presents so many obstacles t.i rapid svtilo neiit that we cannot iudutge the hope of drawing offiu that tlirectiiin the grow ing numbers of our tree black population. The ti inic.nl reuions of A mericn, I think, ofl. r a li r bitter both lor us an. I lor them. FOURTH—As to among American Citizens. i u I r.icoguix' no distinctions among American ci t i z us, bill such as are expressly laid down in the Constitution : and I hold that our Govern in. ml is bjuud to protect all t!ia citis us i:l the enioYineut of all their rights every when, and gainst a'l assailants; and as to these rights there is no difference between citizens born, and cili z mis in ide such by law. FIFTH—Am I in favor the Construction of a FIFTH—Am I in favor the Construction of a Railroad from the Valley of the Mississippi to the Pacific Ocean, Under the Auspices of the General Government? Yes, Chorouly. I do not only believe such a road to bj ol vast imp irUnco as tin means of in roasui; th.- p ipulation, wealth and power of this grutl valley, but necessary as the ui -uiu ol national d-'feuce and of preserving the iniegrity of the Union. SIXTH—Am I in favor of the Measure called the Homestead Bill? by a Yes. 1 am for gu trding the public lands ns well as possible Iroir. the dan.-r ot beeointng the subj'ici of common I ru b? und speculation ; lor keeping th 'in tor the ucttul use uf the peo ple, uu I for grunting tracts of suitable sizi to iho-e who will uctually inluhii and improve them.

Hanging of "Pennsyltuck"—A Duel—Murder Hanging of "Pennsyltuck"—A Duel—Murder of Wm. West by Moses Young.—Emigration, etc. DENVER CITY, J. T., March 14, 1860. Ed. or ritKRV-'iuno Journal i In my last I stated that a man called " Penm jltuck," aliat W. W. Atkins, had been shot by our Sheriff at Mountain City. At thtt time I supposed he was mortally wounded, but he wet not ; on the contrary, he was considered in fair way to re cover, when one night about ten days since, he was taken from his bed by bnd of men (?) somo of whom were disguised, and hung upon a tree near by. He was found the next day by a party of miners, still suspended from the tree. PiMinsyltork " was a very dangerous charac ter. Ho attempted to shoot the Sheriff at the time he was shot, and while on his sick bed mreateiieu me lives ol several cituwii as soon as '. c should be able to leave his bud, and it is sup posed that tint is tho reasou why he was hung. 1 do not justify the act of hanging him in the manner it was done, although he no doabt tie rved hang ug ; still it might have been done In daylight. A DUEL. On Wednesday Inst a duel took place in which Lucien W. Htiss, Secretary and acting Gover nor of Jeff. Ter., and Dr. J. S. Sione, member ol the Territorial legislature, were principals. I do not know the particulars that caused the chullenge to bo passed ; I only know that Stone challenged Bliss, and that Bliss accepted, and chose ss weapons shot guns loujed with ounce bells ; distance, thirty yards. 1 was present wh?n the duel took placo, aud think there were nearly 1,000 persons ou the ground. To go into a full detail uf tho affair would take too much time and space iu your columns. Tho word was given ; ' Fire one halt !'' Stone fired a moment b.fore Dliss aud missed. Bliss fired nnd his opponent felt, it was upposrd mortally woun led, but he still survive, though in a critical condition. The bull euleied the left thigh, penetrating the bladder tud pass ing entirely through the body. The groan that Siono gave wiieu ho fell was heartrending. I seem to hear it yet. It wa the first duel I ever witnessed, and I asinre you 1 have uo dcelro to witness another. Both of tho opponets were young men ia the prime of life; and both 1 believe are uuinamod. A COLD BLOODED MURDER. Yestorday, about two o'clock P. M., our town was thrown into a great ituta of excitement, caused by a cold blooded murder having been committed in our midst, in broad daylight, in the heart of the city. Mr. .iloses Young shot a Mr. West with a ehol gun loaded with buck shot, lifteen of which eu tered his body, killing him ahnost instantly. iuun.i fi d and secreted himself iu a building kuowti ns"Stugg Hill," uu BUko street, where he was found and captured last evening. He was placed under a guard of picked citizms aud kept confined during the night und is having his tri al to-day. I was standing within a short disttiiiLv of til.; spot where the Wag dy was enacted, at the time, and was one uf '.he first to run to the fall en man. His last exclamation was " Mv God. I'm killed !" Hi was a sober, industrious, hard working man, a cuipeiiler by trade, and about 43 years of age. He leuves a family residing iu Leavenworth City, Mr. Youug-is a contractor and builder, and the deceased had beet) working lor him and tho difficul'y arose from sumo troub le iu settling up accounts. EMIGRATION uas aireauy commenced, loams are arriving nearly every day, aud the express coaches are bringing in lull loads of anxious gold seekers, imported direct from " America, the laud of pumpkin pics, buckwheat cukes and sausages. J. H Gregory, the celebrated discoverer of tho "Gregory Diggings," returned to this place about two weeks since, bringing a quarts mill witb him. The passengers who arrived by the express coach to day. stata that tlio ro is uow a large emigralioii ou the road. I never vet have ud vised any ono to come to this country, but on the contrary I would rather advise them not to como. It will do well enough fur young men to come here; there are good chances for them to gel a start iu the world, but lor men who havu families aud comfortable homes, to leave all and come to this country iu search of gold, I do think is foolish iu the ex trein 3. Miiried nien. take my advice if you are bound to comi here, bring your families along with you aud make up your minds to settle down here for at Last five years. You will then stand a chance to make soinsthiii. Not more thin ten nun out of ev ery huuJral wilt dj b.-tter hire thin th-y could at boms, but every man believes hi will be one of that ten, therefore what is the u'j of trying to dissuade men from coming here. When a men once gets the yold fever," nothing will cure it short of euJuring the hardships of crossing the plains, or living the life of a miner for about one month iu the Rocky Mouutains.
