DAILY SENTINEL. TUESDAY.... ..........SEPTEMBER 20

Twaddle-Abe Lincoln's Speech.

The Hon. Abe Lincoln, the great Ajax of Republicanism, in his speech at Masonic Hall, asserted that slavery or freedom in both Territories and new States, depended entirely upon Congressional action. In his view, if slavery was prohibited by Congressional intervention in the Territories they would come into the Union as free States; if not, they would come in as slave States. He stated that neither soil or climate would influence the determination of the question, but the result as to whether they would be free or slave depended entirely upon Congressional restriction or non-action. This theory he attempted to illustrate by the history of the NorthWestern Territory, and the Ordinance of 1787. That Indiana was a free State was owing to the fact that slavery had been prohibited here by Congress, and had been in nowise dependent upon the will or the choice of her citizens. Kentucky, he said, with a soil and climate similar to Indiana, was a slave State, because slavery had not been prohibited by Congress while she was in a Territorial condition. He insisted that slavery would go into all Territories and would mould the character of their State constitutions, unless prohibited by Congress. In this view Congressional intervention for "freedom" was the only panacea for the eradication or restriction of slavery.

Notwithstanding the ordinance of 1787, Indiana Territory gave a slave code to the territory now included in the State of Michigan, Illinois and Indiana. The same authorities also prepared a slave code for Louisiana Territory. Slavery, too, by Territorial legislative permission and protection, was one of the domestic institutions of Indiana and Illinois, and slaves were held in them until a late period by the protection of local laws. When the constitution of Indiana was adopted, in 1820, the people "in the free exercise of the right to choose their own form of government" ordained that "there shall be neither slavery nor involuntary servitude within the State otherwise than for the punishment of crimes." Here was an exercise of unquestioned popular sovereignty. It was the choice of the people who ordained the constitution of 1820, and again in 1850, not to have slavery. If they had desired that domestic institution they could have had it, and Congress would have admitted Indiana into the confederacy with a constitution permitting slavery.

But Hon. Abe Lincoln says that no Territory was ever admitted as a State with a constitution prohibiting slavery by the free choice of her people. In other words, popular sovereignty never made a free State, or extended slaver, in the adoption of a State constitution. How was it with California and with Oregon? Before admission slavery was not prohibited in those Territories by Congressional intervention; yet they came into the Union free States by the voluntary choice of their inhabitants. How is it with Kansas? The free choice of her people makes her a free State. The same will it be with Nebraska, unaffected by the overshadowing influence of Congressional action. In Kansas slaves can be as profitably employed as in Missouri; yet according to Hon. Abe Lincoln's Republican logic, in the absence of Congressional prohibition Kansas must come into the Union as a slave State. And the same argument will apply to California and Oregon. The idea which prevails with Mr. Lincoln and the party he represents is, that the people of the Territories are incapable of judging whether their climate and soil better adapts them to free or slave labor.

The diluted and flimsy arguments of Mr. Lincoln may appear sound and satisfactory to weakheaded Republicans, but they can not be accepted by an intelligent auditory. If Mr. Lincoln is one of the great guns of Republicanism, and if that party depend upon the arguments he made in his speech here to sustain their cause, there is less in Republicanism, as little as we have heretofore estimated it, than we had supposed. With all reflecting men, Mr, Lincoln's Masonic Hall speech damaged the Republican cause, adn the same speech made over the State would do more to confirm Democratic principles than any other agency we know of. His plausibility was too transparent to deceive the most credulous, without possessing even skim milk substance. Such food may, however, do for such old line Whig babies as Hon. John D. Degreks and Hon. Caleb B. Smith, whose weak stomachs seemed well adapted for it.

Southern Opposition and Slavery.

William C. Swede, of Vickaburg, Mississippi, a prominent member of the Opposition, has given his views of parties, in a long letter. His main sugestion is "that the friends of the Union, of harmony, of the Government, shall resolve on this vexed question, that in all Territorial acts it shall be hereafter inserted that no laws shall be passed by the Legislatures of the Territories prohibiting or interfering with the existence of slavery in them;" and this basis is indorsed by the National Intelligencer. Now, see how the New York Tribune comes down upon its Opposition brother. "What?" it says, "consent to see the people of the Territories tied hand and foot for ten, twenty, forty years, by act of Congress, utterly helpless against the inroads of slavery; while that institution, despite their remonstances, can strike its roots permanently into their soil!" And so the Tribune falls to and denounces its Mississippi brother as little better than an infidel, and his suggestion even worse than the Democratic doctrine of non-intervention! Then it improves the occasion to renounce that "the only practicable basis for a union in the next Presidential election, that which we have so often expounded, vix., the co-operation of all such as agree sustantially upon the slavery issues involved in that contest—holding, in the meanwhile, minor questions, on which there is no agreement, in abeyance." In other words, it falls back on united North—on a purely sectional basis, which must, necessarily, be repudiated by fiteen of the States of this Union. Mr. Swede talks very patriotically; but it will be all talk, so long as he refuses to join the only national party that is right on the great question of standing by the Constitution.

What is Republicanism?—The juvinile organ of Republicanism, the Atlas, inquires "what is Democracy? That is a pretty question for an individual to ask, whose entire political platform is summed up is "opposition to Democracy." We judge there must be a great deal in Democracy, the way the Atlas spends his strength against it, but we don't think it will hurt much.

Attempt to Ros.—On last Saturday evening, about eight o'clock, Mr. John King, merchant of this place, closed his store and started home to his residence, about a fourth of a mile north of the store, and when within the yard be was assailed by two villains that were laying in wait for him. They threw him down and inflicted four or five severe blown upon his face and head, fortunately the injuries, though painful, are not serious. It is supposed that the assailants expected to get the money of Mr. King or the store-keys to help themselves at the store. They got neither. The reddiness and cry of alarm of Mr. King caused them to flee without accomplishing their fiendish purposes. [ch?] exposed with this affair satisfy the [?] diet the rogues reside here or is the immediate vicinity.—Franklin Demoret

POLITICAL AND PERSONAL ITEMS.

—For President.—The Chamberburg (Pennsylvania) Valley Spirit raises the name of Judge Black to the head of its columns for the Democratic nomination at Charleston, and advocates this selection in a strong editorial.

—The Milwaukee News announces, upon authority, that Senator Douglas will visit Wisconsin next month, and address the people on the great issues of the day.

—The Aurora Party.—Parks Goodwin, in his recent speech delivered at the "Republican" State Convention a few days ago, compared the rapid rise, brilliancy, &e., of the "Republican" party to the gorgeous aurora borealis, whihc spread with so much splendor lately over the whole horizon. This was very pretty had he followed up the simile. The splendid phenomenon which furnished the speaker with so beautiful a figure, unless we are greatly mistaken, and we believe we are not, vanished from the heavens and from sight almost as soon as it appeared, and has not been seen or heard of only in name since.

The broad light of day had the same effect upon it that the light of truth will have upon Mr. Godwin's political party. It will disappear and only be remembered as a strange phenomenon.— New York News.

—Abe Lincoln.—This distinguished gentleman is following the footsteps of Douglas, and it seems his destiny is ever to follow him. He spoke at Columbus on Friday last. The Statesman, of that city, says of his speech there:

The Young Men's Republican Club must have been mortified at the very meagre audience in attendance at the Lincoln meeting held yesterday afternoon on the eastern terrace of the State House. The Douglas meeting on Wednesday week at the same place, could well have spared a number of men equal to that which heard Lincoln on yesterday, and not missed them from the assemblage. The meeting yesterday was indeed a "beggarly account of empty boxes," and the speaker disappointed all who heard him. We should be content to have Mr. Lincoln speak on the eastern terrace every day from this time until the election. He is not an orator. He can hardly be classed as a third rate debator. The most of his time was taken up in what he supposed to be a review of Douglas' Popular Sovereignty doctrine, and the article in Harper on that subject. He is opposed to the principle of leaving to the people of the Territories the right to mold their institutions in their own way; is in favor of the intervention of Congress and the control of the people of the Territories through Congressional power; and further, he is of opinion that there is an "irrepressible conflict between the States of this Union which will never end, until all are made free or all are made slave States." Mr. Lincoln is not a great man—very, very far from it, and his visit here will not pay expenses. Indeed the Republicans feel that they have bured their fingers by bringing him here. Happily for them, however, the audience was so small that his very inferior speech will do much less damage than it would have done had the audience been large.

All accounts agree that he failed to draw the crowd at Cincinnati that Mr. Douflas did. The Enquirer says of the meeting there:

The Opposition have been making great preparations all the week to draw together a meeting that would rival that which turned out to greet Senator Douglas on Friday, 9th inst. They sent to Illinois and procured Mr. Lincoln, Douglas' unsuccessful competitor for the United States Senate, in hope that his fame, linked as it is with Mr. Douglas, would draw out the masses.

They gave notice of the meeting in all the city journals for a week, and had large bill posters out for several days. They appointed it in Fifth street Market-space, on Saturday night, which is the best place and the best night in the week to draw out a large crown. They fired heavy cannon in the streets and discharged fire-works from the speaker's stand. Notwithstanding all this work, aided by a fine night, the meeting was not one-quarter as large as that of Mr. Douglas, who came here on short notice, on a different night from that which he had appointed.

Mr. Lincoln, although a man of some ability, is not a very pleasing or impressive speaker, and we think disappointed the expectations of his friends.

A Man after God's own Heart.—Dr. Taney, a relative of Chief Justice Taney's, recently eloped with the wife of a Baptist deacon, from the village where they both resided, in Knox county, Ohio. They were respectable people and worthy memebers of society—both held high positions in the same church. She left three little children, one a sweet babe of ten months old; he left four or five. The day before they eloped he took his wife, a gentle, blue-eyed, beautiful woman, and her babe, on a visit to his brother's and told her not to come back until the next evening, that he would take good care of the other children in her absence. When she came home he had been gone over fourteen hours, and the lonely little ones were all crying. When the dreadful intelligence came, she fell to the floor, and lay moaning and weeping in intensest agony, refusing to be comforted. It was a day and a night before a word of consolation to which she would listen fell into that stricken heart. Poor, poor Carrie! and this is the love of woman!

The bereft husband, (compare him, reader, with that roue, Sickles,) who idolized his wife, followed and overtook them in Monroeville, Huron county, where he found the erring woman prostrated with illness. The spirit of the humble Christian predominated in his heart. Without a word of cruel upbraiding, he staid and nursed her back to life, then he talked with the Doctor and her, and reasoned with them, and promised to forgive all, and smooth the matter over, adn hid the facts from the world. But, with a sorrow too deep for utterance, did he learn that her heart was no longer his, that she loved another better than her own sweet babe and her kind husband. He took her hand in his and forgave her all—certified in writing that he gave her up on condition she would marry the object of her choice as soon as possible, and he would never molest them. He gave her $160, and good advice, wished the blessing of God to rest upon her, and then, bowing under his burden of grief, he returned to his poor, motherless babes, and his desolate hearth.

The hard world that pats Sickles on the back approvingly, will sneer, and call the Deacon a— fool, and his bleeding heart will go down to the grave unappreciated. God and the blessed angels will draw near and comfort him.—Cleveland Herald.

Squatter Sovereignty.—We have said before, in these columns, that more learned nonsence has been expended, and more senseless fools have expended more gab on this subject of squatter sovereignty than any other that has ever engaged public attention. Mr. Douglas is denounced for his squatter sovereignty notions by every little cross-roads politician in the country. Ask him what squatter sovereignty is, and he knows just as much about it as a hog does about Christmas.

Under present circumstances there can be no such thing as squatter sovereignty, for the simple reason that the United States do not possess a single foot of unorganized territory upon which a fellow can squat. Every inch of the territory now belonging to the United States is duly and legally organized with Territorial governments— executive, legislative and judicial. They have all been erected into organized communities by the Government of the United States, and are, of course, capable of attending to their own affairs —of giving expression to their wants and necessities, their likes and dislikes. If these Territories are not States, they are at least quasi States, settled by intelligent emigrants from the States, and their wishes and opinions are at least entitled to our respect. Above all, they are not lawless sqatters, but by reason of their recognition by our Government, they are half-way members of our Federal Union.—Memphis Appeal.

Aid for Ireland.—The New York Observer states that a deputation from the Presbyterian Chruch of Ireland is on its way to this country, to ask for aid in the prosecution of the Missionary work in that Island. It consists, says the Observer, of the Rev. Dr. Edgar, one of the noblest philanthropists of Ireland, and whose name is nearly as familiar here as in his own land; and of the Rev. David Wilson, of Limerick, and of the Rev. Samuel Dill, of Ballymons. Dr. Cooke to one of the deputation; but his coming is not certain. Official duties may prevent him; but there is some hope that the old man elequent may pay us a brief visit.

[?] The Independent states that the [?] silk and fancy dry goods section houses in New York "hammered off" last year, on six months' credit, the enormous amount in value of $3,000,000 of foreign merchandise, consisting mostly of silks, ribbons and printed goods.

ALL SORTS OF PARAGRAPHS.

—The Emperor of Morocco is dead.

—Miss Carroll, a beautiful young lady attached to the circus, ran off with a man the other day in Illinois. In marrying him she married beneath herself. She was a tight-rope dancer and he a ground tumbler.

—Calcutta, India, was visited July 26th by a fearfully disastrous hurricane. Immense damage was done on shore, and forty-six vessels, including two steamships, were lost in the river Hoogley. Several lives were lost.

—It is understood that the $30,000 has to be paid to complete the purchase of Mount Vernon. Under the superintendence of the competent gentleman the out-houses have been repaired; the old paths, almost obliterated, are being traced and cleaned up, and other measures are in progress to arrest the ravages of decay.

—"Susan," sai j a Connecticut young servant girl in Norwich, looking out of the upper story of a small grocer, addressing another girl who was trying to enter at the front door, "we've all been to camp meeting and been converted, so when you want milk on Sunday, you will have to come in at the back door."

—Fearful Accident at Boston.—Mr. Davis and wife, of New Orleans, while crossing the track of the Worcester Railroad in a carriage, was struck by the locomotive of a passing train. Mrs. Davis was instantly killed and her husband was severly injured. Mrs. Davis was thrown over a two story building.

—A "medium" not far from Niagara Falls, had a strange vision a few days since. She saw a rope swinging in the air—a sudden sensation among crowds of people, and a great funeral procession. The interpretation is, that Blondin, in attempting to go through his performances, will fall from the rope and lose his life, and that his body will be attended to the grave by a large number of people.

—Sharp, Very.—A negro man who purchased his freedom went to New York State, and by rigide economy saved $600, which he entrusted to an Abolition lecturer to go to Delaware and buy his oldest daughter. The lecturuer was overcome on his charitable errand by a fair daughter of the State of Delaware, whom he married and then pocketed the $600 given to him by the negro. This is about as far as the principle of an Abolitionist extends—as far as it is possible to make money out of it.—Savannah Republican.

—The Queen of Spain is said to be as much addicted to port wine, as "Court scandal" says Queen Victoria is. But it affects both rather differently. The Queen of Spain suffers from it internally. Queen Victoria externally. The Queen of Spain is interfered with medicinally; Queen Vicoria is physically. It touches the Queen of Spain's heart and head; it touches Queen Victoria's face and feet. These be strange contrasts as truly as these be two Queens, and that the thing in question is port wine—the real thing too.

—The Artesian wells of this city are getting to be our greatest card, abroad. The one last sunk at the corner opposite the King and Buckingham Elevators, elicits very general remarks from the large number of produce men who are daily visiting our city. With a bore of six inches for 60 feet and three inches for the last 18 feel, it continues to discharge constantly at the rate of a barrel in 120 seconds—as pure and sweet water as ever passed human lips.—Toledo Times.

—The Boston Spiritual Age proposes that the Spiritualists shall organize as a political party, nominate Governor Tallmadge or Judge Edmonds for the Presidency, and make their influence felt in 1860. Upon this the Springfield Republican remarks—"But what if the spirits should take it into their heads to elect their candidates by ballot-box stuffing? The most authentic accounts fo to show that they could put the requisite number of ballots into the boxes without the knowledge or consent of the officers of election, and in a way to defy all scrutiny or detection. They may even change the names on the genuine ballots deposited, and so leave us no certainty at all of an honest vote, and that there are enough of them who would have no scruples of conscience as to such a trick, the history of spiritual performances for the last dozen years clearly establishes."

—The Edinburgh (Scotland) Court of Session was, at last accounts, about to investigate one of the most stupendous cases of swindling to be found in the history of trade. The Carron Iron Company was formed in 1773, and it would appear that from that period down to the present time the active management of the concern has been monopolized by two closely related families named Stainton and Dawson. The Staintons and Dawsons, it is alleged, have plundered the Company to an extent which really seems almost incredible. The balance sheets were systematically falsified, and the shareholders were kept in utter ignorance as to the real state of the property. A faint idea of the gigantic nature of these frauds may be gathered from the fact that when one of the Stainton's executors was about to be procsecuted by the Company for the amount of certain fictitious entries in the books, the claim was compromised by a payment of £220,000!

—New York Gossip.—The New York correspondent of the Charleston Mercury, writing September 5th, has the following items:

The Diamond Wearer.—I must tell you of a very sensible, uncommonly matter-of-fact gentleman in this city, who unites to all the strongminded qualities of his sex the most feminine fondness of brilliants. He wears about $6,000 worth stuck about him in every accountable shape. Shirt studs, sleeve buttons, breast pin, and numerous finger rings, are all single stones of the first water; and the same charming jewels gleam in the open links of his watch chain, and are thickly studded in the back of his timekeeper. It is an off fancy for a man who is exceedingly plain and rather negligent in his other attire.

—Fighting the Tiger —One of your South Carolinians has been "fighting the tiger" at an up-town faro bank. In an engagement with that terrible and generally invinciple beast, the other night, the South Carolinian floored him completely, and took $27,000 from his clutches. But alas! for the fickelness of luck!—it was only two days subsequently that the young victor, after another struggle with the dangerous animal, was stripped of all his winnings and $2,300 to boot.

Sons of Malta.—"Jeems" was recently initiated into the order of the Sons of Malta, and graphically describes his introduction into the "vale of mystery," as follows:

"You are first grabbed and thrown into a tub of cold water, and forthwith several large men begin to stick pins in you. Hauling you out of the tub of water, they rush you into another department, and now new men make a lunge after you, dressed in disguise, and immediately commence pouring hot molasses into your hair and boots. Meanwhile, a stream of cold water is flooded on to you, and a man dressed in black thrusts a snuff box in front of your nose, and all at once you befin to sneeze vociferously, and the eager crowd begins to laugh and hurrah. Shoving you further along, the chief men and bottlewashers grab you by the nose, hair, and coat tail, and in this way rip every bit of dry goods loose from your person, and again the crowd roars with tumultuous laughter at your nude state, with five or six men holding on to your hair and toes, forcing you up a soaped pole with pins and sharps sticks. You now begin to think you are forsaken by all of God's people, and the devil has certainly got possession of you, knocking you on the head so that you see stars as numerous as they are in the milky way. You are handled in this kind of tantalizing way for two hours, when the officers give you a large dose of liverwort and tar, and then let you go."

A Nunnery.—Dr. Buist, during his northern trip, communicates his notes of travel, short and pithy, to that excellent paper, the Laurensville Herald. While at Montreal he visited the establisment of the Grey nuns, and says:

A Nunnery is somewhat different from what I had supposed. Indeed, I have never met a book which gave me the least hint of its true character. I had supposed it simply a religious house for unmarried females; but they are not so at all; they are chiefly hospitals for the infirm—old, blind and sick, and orphans. where hundreds of children are educated and taken care of. And the Nuns are engaged in managing, superintending, teaching, sewing, and in every respect controlling these large and charitable foundations. This feature in the Nunnery is most commendable, and makes them very popular in Montreal. The Nunneries, too, are very wealthy, and have great influences. About seven hundred persons live in the establisment of Grey Nuns, and [?] one hundred and twenty are Nuns, so you may Judge how largly it is a charitable institution.

New Tecumseh was Killed.

The Western Christian Advocate of this week contains an obituary notice, of Isaac Hamblin, Sr., who died at his residence, near Bloomfield, Ind., a few months since, aged about eighty-six years. Mr. Hamblin was a man of deep piety and unquestionable veracity. He was in the battle of the Thames, and the writer gives the following as his statement in regard to the manner in which Tecsumseh was killed:

He says he was standing but a few feet from Colonel Johnson when he fell, and in full view, and saw the whole of that part of the battle. He was well acquainted with Tecumseh, having seen him before the war, and having been a prisoner seventeen days, and recieved many a cursing from him. He thinks that Tecumseh thought Johnson was Harrison, as he often heard the chief swear that he would have Harrison's scalp, and seemed to have a special hatred toward him. Johnson's horse fell under him, he himself being also deeply wounded; in the fall he lost his sword, his large pistols were empty, and he was entangled with his horse on the ground. Tecumseh had fired his rifle at him, and when he saw him fall he threw down his gun and bounded forward like a tiger sure of his prey. Johnson had only a side pistol ready for use. He aimed at the chief over the head of his horse, adn shot near the center of his forehead. When the ball struck it seemed to him that the Indian jumped with his head full fifteen feet into the air; as soon as he struck the ground a little Frenchman ran his bayonet into him and pinned him fast to the ground.

For the Daily State Sentinel.

Liberian Emigration.

It is the design of Rev. John McKay, of Madison, to remove with his family and several of his kindred to Liveria in the spring. Mr. McKay acted as Agent of the Colonization Board for several years, and is a reliable man. He has some experience in the emigration work, as he accompanied a large band of emigrants from this State to Africa in the fall of 1853, and returned, giving entire satisfaction to the Board.

If any of our people of color desire to remove, now is a good time, and we hope that the friends of African regeneration will simulate all the moral and intelligent colored people of their acquaintance to aid in the good work of giving a nationality to this long depressed race. One small Christian settlement on the African coast is worth more to the race than one of the numerous war ships kept at a vast expense on those stations. Those wishing to emigrate will please inform us in time.

JAMES MITCHELL, Secretary State Board of Colonization. September 19th, 1859. P. S.—Address the writer at Jeffersonville, Ind.

Attempted Forgery.—A bold, but unsuccessful forgery, was attempted on the Commercial Bank this afternoon. A man about thirty-five or forty years of age—in his shirt sleeves, and otherwise attired as a boatman—presented a check for $580, which purported to have been drawn by Moore & Pierce. The signature was well calculated to deceive, but thee filling up of the check was rather awkwardly done, and excited the suspicions of Cashier McBride, and he asked the man where he obtained it. He replied, "at the warehouse," and remarked that the person in whose favor ithad been drawn, was outside. McBride declined paying the check except to the owner in person, and the man went out to look for him. A messenger was dispatched to the warehouse of Moore & Pierce, and it was ascertained that no such check had been drawn. The officers are on the alert, but as yet no further clue has been discovered to the perpetrators of the forgery.—Lafayette Courier.
