JWfbre s Congress and a President can be

It noodano very far reaching comprehension
to tee that what we have stated is true. In

act on this subject Ajihi the Senate has

change that body so as to give a majority in
favor of it, and it is altogether probable that
it could not be changed at all ; and again it
wouid be nearly three year before a preui-
dent could be elected, who would go in for
repeal, aa the next president would bo in

r nnacrsuna is possessed of considerable

that he could not get through with an idea.
It ia due to the sober portion of the Nebras
keitfsto gay that they appeared ashamed of
their demonstration, but there were others
who were in about the same stage as tho
speaker, and they felt so glorious that they
auld hardly keep still enou h to permit the
speaking to go on.
The above scurrilous, and vilainous para
r,4ph appeared In the fopullicm or last
week.
Mr. Tracy is a man of decided Ulcnts and
of WgTj standing as a lawyer, and is fully ca
pable, and did make, a complete reply to the
petitions taken by Mr. Clay, against the con
stitution and the Fugitive f-lave I.aw, about
the only subjects upon which he spoke.
Clay in hia speech had thrown out the cbal
Jnge, that hii arguincuts could not be an

Tho Principle.
The Nebraska bill is founded upon the
principle, that the people are sovereign ; that
they have the power, and of right ought to
exercise it, to regulate all their domestic
affairs in such a manner as shall coincide
with their views and interests. This is tho
principle which we call Democratic and Jef
fersonian. At the time of the formation of the Con
stitution of the United States, every one of
the old thirteen state passed resolutions,
declaring that they would never enter into
the Union under the constitution, unless the
right of regulating their own domestic affairs
was left to themselves. We say then that
this principle is the comer stone of Our gov
ernment, and that it wu supported anl
maintained by Jefferson.
The Republican of last week attacks this
position, aud calls it impudence. The re
mark', however, on the subject are so scat
tered through several articles and dissipated
through to or three columns, that it would
bo impossible to quote auything containing
his position if he has any.
Tho Republican moreover commits the en
ormous historic blunder of attributing the
authorship of the ordinance of 1767 to Jef
ferson. Mr. Dana of Massachusetts was the
author of that instrument which declares
that slavery shall not exist iu the North west
territory. This prohibition was an excep
tion to the general principal of sovereignty
upon which this government was founded,
and in the establishment of territorial gov
ernments tho United States never came back
to the general principle until tho organiza
tion of tho territories of Utah and New Mex
ico. We do not pretend to deny that the
ri of yT9t n..tnnut .! a.- luv, UI
that Jefferson, though not the author, yet
supported the mi asuro. Yet this in no way
overthrows the main principle, or proves that
it is not democratic, and whoever claims
that it docs stultifies himself. And to at
tempt to show that Jefferson w as an enemy
to this general principle-, and that it is not a
fundamental doctrine of our government, and
democratic in its nature, is superlative im
pudence aud an insult to any intelligent un
derstanding. Whether it was tho best policy to repeal
tho Missouri restriction and apply this prin
ciple to the territory effected by that measure
is entirely another question. But this has
all been done, and now what arc you going
to do about it. You can't repeal ihiNcbraska
aud Kansas bill, and it is impracticable to
attempt it What then are youMr. Republican
and all others that are so rampant on the
subject of slavery, going to do f Are you
going in with Clay and that fanatic clique, to
r peal the fugitive slave law, that in 1853
you supported and defended f will you de
clare all slaveholders unlit to hold any otliee
under Ibis government f will you go in for
the prohibition of tho slave trade between the
dill'ereut states? What are you going to do
with your Baltimore Platform 1 We expect
the answer would be 'tte expect to (arry

will win. There is the b ginning and tho
end ofwhifTScrv. Thr will embrace tho
fugitive slave law when they think a prcsi

Death fWin. HicharrfN ?.
Mr. Richaidson died of Cholera oa Thurs
day night, in the 60th year of his age. lie
went to Chicago on Tuesday and returned
on Weduesday morning by the night train.
Thursday morning he was taken with the
cholera and lived only about 15 hours.
lie was a native of Massachusetts, and
lived for some time at Owegi, N. Y., and
came from there to this country 17 years
ago. Since then he has resided most of the
time here, and has been a large and extensive
operator. For a number of years was jus
tice Of the peace, aud at the time of his death
was a member of the city council of Otta
wa. VTni. IUcbardsan was a man much esteem
ed in his private character, as a man of iu-
T"T ami bnnnr (h a.) p'A'w n aiwl
-o--v 1 ii r - - - - " -
neighbor, and a kind and precious friend.
His iutluence was wholly of the right kind
as respects good order and morals. But he
was not merely n oral. lie was religious,
and sought to act front religious principle.
Accordingly when suddenly summuued, he
was not alarmed. Without one expression
of regret, he professed himself ready to go,
lie had confidence in the realities beyond tho
present, the ground of his faith, and willingly
went to the untried scenes of the future. A
valuable man is taken away, leaving a vacan
cy very difficult to fill. His memory will be
long cherished.
The Cholera.
The cholera has boen raging for tho patt
two weeks, in most of tiic cities of the U. S.
with greater effect than it has any time since
the summer of '19. From 25 to 40 cas .s
daily have been reported at Chicago. In the
inland cities and towns it has not prevailed
near as much. Wo are told that a number
of cases have occurred at Jolirt and Peru and
La Salic.
Although several persons have died here
with the cholera, yet not a single case has
originated in Ottawa this year. 'Frightened,
superstitious, and miseducatcd persons pro
claim a contrary opinion.'
We make this statement on the best au
tority, and on the best advice, confirmed by
our personal observation and experience.
We trut, however, that a few transitory
cases are sufficient to call the attention of
our city authori' ies to the state of cleanliness
of our city, and lead them immediately to
take measures to provide for the cleansing of
the strcets.and especially of the alleys.as ma
ny of them are in a most filthy condition.
Our city, as a general thing, is remarkably
healthy, and even tho extreme hot weather
from the 1st to the 10th of this month did
not produce any material change in this res
pect. But the "Cholera season" is not yet
iisit'i "nd every procauti n sl.o ild It taken

gccllonnl.
The Eepulliean takes upon itself th duty
of defending and apologising for the hotch
potch convention to como off in this city on
the 1st of August, and gets very wrathy be
cause we called the movement a purely sec
tional one, and impudently denies what the
great leaders of this northern confederation do
not oven pretend to dispute.that they wish to
organise a party embracing on'y a itetion of
our country. If folly can go turthcr ttian
this, we arc not able to discover how. Wo
expected this. Wo supposed that such a di
lapidated whig sheet as the Hepvllicnn
would refuse inst'netivoly to call anythii g by
tho right name, and that while it ia seeking
to array one portion of the country in di
rect and open hostility against tho other, it
would still persist that this was all strictly
national. Beautiful consistency. Notwith
standing, the disturbance it may causS that
paper wo shall still continuo to call this
movement to unite all tno flouting elements
to be found in the north against the south a
sectional one, and an attempt to get up a
hotchrjiotth party, a hideous conglomerate.
Comhi'ted. Gov. Maltcson has commut
cd the sentence of tho three Irishmen con'
victed of the murder of Mr. Albert Story at
La Salle, to imprisonment for life. In doing
this we believe the Governor has carried out
the wish of a large portion of the people o
thia wtion nf i-nmifi-jr Whether justice
has been accomplished by this commutation
or not, we are not well enough acquainted
with the 'law and the evidence in the case'
to determine. But tho Chicago Tribune,
that has for weeks been crying for the blood
of these men, now pouifes upo Gov. Mat'
teson with all tho virulence and political an
imosity that malignity can prompt. It at
tacks his motives and attributes the commu
tation to Jesuitical influence, aud the for
eign vote. It Aaya i
We have neither time nor inclination, this
meraing, to speak ot the most uncalled lor
and extaorU.uary a. t ol'G jvc.nor Mait.s..ii,
111 tile manner which it deserves. vt u weiu
told, at the time of the first movement was
set on foot for the pardon of these men, that
tbe Governor would never naug no much po
litical capital, but wu thought he never could
be so blind to his duty as to act so ralily,
and so directly in opposition to every argu
ment of truth und justice. But the Jesuiti
cal power was too strong ; the scheme of the
politicians triumphed, and thu claims of out
raged law have been set at naught.
It further saj-B that it is in possession of'
facts concerning this mutter, and they ex
hibit a political corruption that will, when
made known, pet feet ly astound the public.
That paper would do well to publish the
facts, then, before it makes such vile accu
sations, and let the people judge for them
selves. We have some of theso facts. Judge
Wilson, before whom the case was trial, we
are told, on reliable authority, wrote to the
governor, stating that although the laws ol
this state would convict thite men, yet jus
tice would not ; and thut he was not satistie,
with tho verdict. Other persons of equally
good authority, und as f"l!y acquainted with
the cvileiice, have done the sami.
These facts show some grounds, at least,
for the conduct of the- xovirro'; and we call
upon that "know nothieg," "native Aim r1
can," Chicago Tribune, to give lve proofs of
corruption and "Jesuitical induetK e," before
it attempts to lead public opinion atray, by
mere assertion.

Fro Mm ico. -Later news from tho fron
tier of Texas states that a most deplnrablo
ronditinu of things exist in Mexico along tho
Kio Grande. Many of thu iuhuhilanls of
that distracted country, having sutfered to
the last depreo from the despotic exactions
of the government of Santa Anns, aro vol
untarily expatriating themselves, aud seek
ing peace and protection within the- United
Statist while others, mora bold and enter,
prising, are organizing for an armed resist
ance to their oppressors. However; this it
an old story ; and the next thing wt hear
from the Bio Grande will probably be of tbt
attack on a villagu composed of half a score
of hulc, by tbt renowned Caravjal, or somo
other philanthropic brigand, who under tbt
guise of patriotism, periodically plunders
tht wretched Inhabitants.
