col. üexto.vs srnxii, TO TUE PEOPLE OF MISSOURI DELIVERED IN THE CAPITAL. fContinutd.J I Jo'hni quote tliia conduct of Mr. Calhoun In giving the answers which he did to Mr. Monroe's interrogatories, for the purpose of tir.dicating the right of Congress to prohibit or abolish slavery in territories. When 1 feel it necessary to vindicate that right, I shall have resource to very different authority from that which con be quoted on every eide of every question it ever touch d. 1 quote it for a very different

purpose for the purpose of shutting up the mouths of his f J lowers a a completely a3 it shut up his own from the dav he was confronted with it. From that day to the present he has never mentioned his rcsolu lions : never caneu lor mat vo.e umu mew wmt.ii e declared himaelf determined to have when he introduccd them! ! In giving hia cabinet support, where his voice was ; potr-nti I. to the abolition of slavery over a million of square units in Louisiana, Mr. Calhoun did more . t 11 1 r iL . t ..4. I. WW I.IAk l, M than any man has ever Oone lowarus aoonsning eiave- . ry in the world, holding as he then did the one-fifth j part of the veto power, and commanding as his position was, as a southern man and a cabinet minister a leading cabinet minister the larg-st question ever started of free or 6lavc soil, was then in -Lis hand and he decided it in favor of free. It was an immense boon to the anti-6lavery party, then so numerous and ardent ; but it was not the only service which he then rendered them. Texas was then ours a part of Lou isiana to the lower Rio Grande ; large enough to form six great, or ten common States.- It was all slave territory, and looked to as the natural outlet of the southern States, with their great increasing slave population. It was given to the King of Spain given away by treaty and that treaty the work of Mr. Monroe's cabinet Mr. Calhoun being a member. And here there is no room for denial, or non-recollection. For a long time Mr. 'Adams bore the blame of that cession. A friend of Mr. Calhoun reproached . t . i TT c t . : 1 - Dim wun u in uie iiouse oi iveprcbciiiaiivtrH. mr. Adams was then alive, and present, and soon vindicated the truth of history. He showed that there was a division in the cabinet upon the point; he was against it Mr. Calhoun for it nnd Mr. Calhoun being a southern man, and the majority of the cabinet southern men, he carried the day and Texas was lost- I was not then in public life, but I wrote agil äst that act, blaming Mr. Adams, when I should . have blamed Mr. Calhoun. By that cession the expansion of slavery was stopped: the growti of slave States ir the southwest was stopped : three hundred and fifty thousand square miles subject to American slavery, was cut off from American dominion, and presented to a foreign Kig. This w;as another great gratification to the abolitionists: but it was not all. There was a strip of land, about large enough for two States, lying upon the Arkansas and Red Rivers, and between Texas and the 3G deg. 30 min. of north latitude. This strip having escaped the compromise line on one side, and the Texns cession on the other, was open to the formation of two respectable slave States. Mr. Calhoun was then still cabinet minister Secretary at War had the Indians under his care and was riding the hobby- of their civilization. He required this strip to be given up to the Indians, for their permanent abode; and thus, it also, was lost to the slave States. All Louisiana was then gone from them except the fragment which was contnined in the States of Missouri and Louisiana, and in the territory of Arkansas. Even this fragment appeared too much to be left to the slave States, and a slice forty miles wide and 300 miles long, was cut off from Arkansas and given to the Indians ; and the slave-holders, witli the slaves upon the slice, wero required to remove from the cut off part, and fall back within the contracted limits. This was done by Indian treaty, tho treaty negotiated by a protege of Mr. Calhoun's. He was then Vice President of the United States, and President of the Senate I was a member of the Senateopposed ti e ratification of thia treaty and crime within one or two vetes of defeating it. The slightest help from Mr. Calhoun would have defeated it, and saved the slave State of Arkansas that territory, and those sal: springs, the loss of which she now has to lament. Taken altogether the compromise the Texas cession the Indian djmain and the slice from Arkansas, and Mr. Calhoun did more, in les? time, to abolish slavery, diminish its area, and increase that of free soil than any man that has ever appeared on tho face of the earth; and of this the antislavery party of the north were fully sensible, and duly grateful. They gave proof of their gratitude. Mr. Calhoun was then candidate for Vice President of the United States: he became the favorite of the North boating even Mr. Adams himself on the free soil track. He beat him six votes in New York ran head and neck with him through New Hampshire, Vermont and Rhode Island was even through Massachusetts and came out a nose- ahead on the northern track. He actually beat Mr. Adams in abolition States and with justice. lie had done more than lam for free soil, and with more merit, being himself an inhabitant or slave soil. I told him all this in my first Calhoun act, in the Senate of the United States, four days after he put in his fire-brand resolutions, in my speech to show him to be the true author of the Mexican war. This was what I then said to him : " This conduct of the Sent for, in giving away Texa, when we bad her, and then making war to get her back, is au enigma which he has never yet condescended to explain, and which, notil exphined, leave him in a täte of self contradiction, which, whether it impaiis hi own confidence in himself or not, mot have the effect of destroying the confidence of othera in him. and wholly disqualifies him for the. office of champion of tbe alareholding States. It was the heaviest blow they had ever leceived, and pot an end. in conjunction with the Missouii compromise, and the permanent location of the Indians west of the Mississippi, to their future growth or extension as ilave State beyond the MisSHippi. The compromise which wss then in full progress, and established at tho next session of Cneres tut off the slave States from all tenitnry north and west of Miouii, and south of thirty-six and a half degrees of north latitude I the treaty of 1S19 ceded nearly all south of that decree, comprehending not only all Texas, but a large part of the alley of the Mississippi on the Red River and the Arkansas, to a foreign power, and brought a non-slav'eholding empire) to tho confines of Louisiana and Arkansas j .the permanent appropriation of the res of the territory foe the abode, of civilized Indians wept the little ilaveholding tenl'oty west of Aikansas, and lying between the compromise line and the cession line, and ief( the slave States without one inch of ground for their future growth. Nothing wai IcTL Even the then territory of Arkansas was encroached o poo. A breadth of forty miles wide, and three hundred long, was cut off from her and given to the Cherokees ; and there was rot -as much slave territoiy left west of the MisMsiippi at a 5ore could have rented the sole of her foot upon. It was not me. el a curtailment, but a total extinction of slaveholding territory ; and don at a time when the Missouri controversy was raging, and every effort made by northern abolitionists to atop the growth of slave State?. The Sena tor from South Carolina., in his support of the cession of lexas, and ceding a rrt or the valley cf the Mississippi, was then the mo-t efficient ally of the institutions at that time, and deprives him of the right of setting up as the champion of tbe Slave Slates now. I denounced the sacrifice of Texas then, believing Mr. Adams te have been the author of ic I denounce it now, knowing the Senator fiotn South Carolina to be its author and fur this his flagrant recreancy to the slavr Interest in their boor of nimost peril I hold him disqualified for the office of champion of (he fourteen slave Stales, (for Delaware cannot be counted ) and hall certainly require him I keep out of Missouri, and to confine himelf to his own bailiwick, when be comes to discuss bis string of resolutions." In these terms I reproached him to his face, for lis recreancy to the slave States, .when he was catering for free soil votes. He wan forced to answer, and to admit tho vot m Mr. Monroe's cabinet in favor of giving away Texas, and in conformity to which nte the treaty was made; but with respect to the Mis souri compromise, and the abolition question, he gave an answer which appenred tobe plausiblo then, but whirh Ims turned out to bo one of the moßt unfortu nate of kis life. He said, in his reply to me: I have now met, and. I trnf, snccessfully repelled, all the charges made by the Senatnr fr. m Missouri, except those lelaürg to the Mi'souri compromise, and the abolition question at that period, for which I am in no ways responsible. 1 was not then in Congies. 1 filled, the cfüce of Secretary of War at that lime, and Lad no agency or control orer it." Thia was h;s answer .he whole that he chose to give. I did not then know of the proofs of the cabinet consultation and of his opinion nt the oouncil taLle in answer to Mr. Monroe's two questions. The proofa had not then come to ligr'nt. aud he was safe. for. the time, in disclaiming- all jrefponuibnity Missouri compromise, and the consequent aboli for the ition of slivery by a law of Congress in upwards of one-half or an LiOuisiana. ile was der the declaration that he not a member of Congress agpney jn ibis act, or sny control over it. 1 bis was ' piiusiuia Biiv.ver at tne lime ; ana. tie sioou arqujited fur the moment. .

This shows that he had ajenev

in the question, and control over it, and is responsible for it. Considering his position as a southern man, and his weight in Mr. Monroe's administration, and he is the rerponsible man for lint act. The majority of the cabinet were pouthern, and if he had made the stand then which he des now, he must havo vetoed the act; on the centra ry, he went for it. and passed 'it pnised tho art of Conpresn Inflating upon slavery in territories, and abolishing it over a million of square miles and now treats such a law as a vioW . ... jatjon or ihe coustituiion nnd an insult, to tlie a'ave States, for which nullification, disunion, and civil war are 'he proper remedies. j am mortified to dwell upon Mr. Calhonn. It is neither my habit nor my pleasure to speak of men. fn near thirty years that I have been in Congres, I n0Te never brought the name or any man before the public, lam now forced to do if. Mr. Calhoun's resolutions are those of the Misoui Legislature. They are identical. One is copied from the other. When the original is invalidated, the copy is of no avail. I am answering his resolutions nnd choose to do it. It is just and oroper that I should do so. He is the prime mover and head contriver. I have had no chance to answer him in the Senate, and it will not do to allow him to take snap-judgment upon me in Missouri, in carrying disunion resolutions in my own State, which he has been forced to abandon in the Senate. Duty to the Country requires mo to an swer him, and personal reasons re-inforce that pub lic duty. He has been instigating attacks upon, me for twenty years ever since I stood by Jackson and the Union in the first war of nullification. His Duff Green Telegraph commenced npon me at the same time it did upon Jackson, and for the same cause because we stood by the Union ! Last summer, in his own State of South Carolina, where T never was, he dragged my name and that of General Houston before his constituents, and denounced us In a public speech, and held us up to public reprobation. He accused us of defection to the South the interpretation being that we would not join him in his scheme'of a"southern convention, to array one half of the Union against the other, and 'form a southern confederacy. It was an audacious attack upon two absent gentlemen, and who, as Senators were entitled to Senatorial courtesy from him. Neither General Houston nor myself thought it right to suffer such an attack to pass with impunity; but we did not think the floor of the Senate the proper place for replying to an attack made out of doors. The forum of our respective States was deemed the proper place. He had assailed us before his constituents, and we determined to answer him before ours. Gen. Houston has replied. He did so during the past esion of Congress, in a published address to his constituents. It was published while Mr. Calhoun was in the city, and where he might answer it if he pleased. He did not so please. He stood mute as if the antagonist was not worthy of notice a privilege of dignity which d'd not belong to him after he himself had bogan the attack. He said nothing: and in that he did better than when he denied his" support of the Missouri com-promiso-act. He did well in saying nothing. It was a case in which public attention should not be raised by controversy. Houston soon showed what the charge of "defection" meant, and then carried the war into Africa. lie charged him with his designs against the Uuion for twenty yeara pat, and supported what he said by an array of facts which could neither be explained away . or denied. That address of Houston's should be re-published by the papers friendly to the Union. It is full of truth and pntrioti:i worthy of the disciple of Jackson and killing to Calhoun. He did well not to" fix.pjiblie attention upon it by replying to it. I told Houston that I should reply in a speech to my constituents and that I am now doinjr. - This is one of my personal reasons for dwelling on Mr. Calhoun; but I have another, which I will now state In the year 1814, as it will be remembered, when my fifth election was coming round, there was an organization against me in the State, supported by every Calhoun man, and every Calhoun newspaper, in the State, and in tho United Slates. " There was a coincidence in their operations which showed that they worked by a pattern. I knew at the time where it all came from; and the source has since been authentically revealed to me. There is a Jaw in the moral world by which "murder will out!" By virtue of tlmt law one of those who were employed to do'the work upon me, and who was then a stranger to me. and afterwards repented,- revealed the plot to me, and placed in my hands an orjgnjal letter of instructions, of which this is' in extract":" "With regard to the course'f your paper, yon can take tbe tone of tbe-'AtfminiMiatjiva from 1 tbink, however, and would recommend that yon would, confine yourself to attacks upon Benton, showing that he has allied himself with the Whig on the Texas question. Quote Jackson's letter on Texas, where he denounces all ihoe as traitors to the country who oppose the treaty. Apply it to Benton. Proclaim that Benton, by attacking Mr. Tyler and his fiiend. ar,d driving them from the parly, is aiding the election of Mr. Clay; and charge hirn with d ling this to defeat Mr. Pnlk. and injure himself the snccesnion io 1S4S; and claim that full jutice be done to the acts and motive of John Tyler by tbe leader. Harp upon these stiine. Do not propone the union, "it is the business of the Democrats to du lhi, and arrange it to our pcifoct s'i.factinn." I quote her from our leading friend at the South. Such is the course which I reccommend, and which you can pumue or not, a. cording to your real attachment to tht Administration. . f ..."' Look out for my leader of to-morrow as an indicator, and regard this letter as of tbe mont strict ani inviolate confidence of character." I read this extract to Mr.' Calhoun, in the Senate of the United States, in February, 1847 four days after hi-firc-brand resolutions were introduced.;. He said he did'nSwritc it. ' I know ho did not.- Neither did he vrite the papers of the A ß plot against Mr. Crawford, nor the resolutions of the last Missouri General Assembly-- He is nu snch bungler' as that. When a'piw is to go into the 6re, he prefers that of any cat or jdog, to hia o"wn!.. .But he was Secretary of : Slate uridr Tyler at the time, and had dV,m'nion over three hundred newspapers, to eagh of which the satno instructions. were issued. They were intended for' their guidance in the Presidential .election, .and in the. State elections of 1844; and especially for my own which was coming on. I Only rend the extract which is special to myat-lf. How well the. instructions were obeyed was seen In this State, and io nth-, er States, and in all the presses and polititions which; followed the lead r.f "our leading friend at the South.' ' Benton Clay Whigs Texas. HVrjf-. upon these strings, and harp they did, until the strings were worn out; and then the harps were hung noon the willows. Now a new set of strings are furnished, and from the same "leading friend at the Souiht and the music re-commences to tho old .tune set to new; words. Eenton Whigs Abolitionism Wilmot Provisoare now the strings, and harp away, is again the word! and harp they will, the old performers and some new ones until the drooping willows shall again claim the appendage of their tuneless instruments. I owe an apology to General Jackson's memory for reading a. letter in which he is quoted against me. It was unjust to him, and .would have been mortifying to see his name quoted against one of h'iabet friends by one of hi greatest enemies. I never mortified his feeling9 by letting him know that I 'had heard how hie name bad been used; but when near his end I sent him a kind message by Major Lewis, which he returned in the most affectionate term, end which I think it right to repeat here. After giving an account of his visit to him, and. how he found him, Major Lewis continues : He inquired afler many old friends and amonjj them yourself, drsinr. to know when I had een you last and how you were. I told him that I had seen you but a few diyt bfore I left Waliui2ton and that yon were well, and at the same tirr.e dVIif ered to him yonr meDje. He wa evidently much atTccted trhrn I bad repeated what you had desiied me to tay lo him. After hört paue, tie sard i 'I thank th Colonel ftr hit kind reccollection of m in my old age and ort aßlie. tionst It woxili give mt great pUamrt to set him onct mart but that I fear it impostible at my life is rapidly drawing to a tlose.

This is my second personal reason for dwelling on Mr. Calhoun. It is to repel his attacks on me. Publio dutj, in tbe Senate of the United States would have required ma to reply to his resolutions!, if lie had ever called them up there. Their passage through

That Ihr General Assembly repaid the conduct of the Noithem States on the subject of slavery as releasing the lave.holding Slates fom all further adherence lo the basis of cnmpromie fixed on by the act of Congies of March 6, i2i) even if auch art ever did impose any obligation upon li e slave-holding States, and autboiizcs them to init upon their light under the constitution ; but for the sake of harmony and for tbe preservation of our federal Union, they will alill sanction tbe app ication of the principles of the Missouri Compromise to the recent territorial acquisitions, if by such concession future aggressions upon the eqtnl rights of the States may be arretted, and the spiiil of ami-slavery fanaticism be extinguished. 4. The tijjht lo prohibit alavery in any territory, belong exclufively lo the people thereof, and can ouly he exercised by them in firming their constitution for a State government, or in ihiir sovereign capacity as an independent State. 5. That in the event of the passage of any act of Congress conflicting with the principles hetein expressed, Missouri will be found ir hearty co-operation with the slaveholding Slates, in such measures as may be deemed necessary for our mutual protection against tbe eucroachtneut of northern fanaticism. " . 6. That our Senators in Congress be int meted; and e.ur representatives be requested to.act in conluimity lothe foregoing icsolutions." The Calhoun resolutions were entitled " The risrbts of C-ngres over the territories of the Union in relation to slavery," and were introduced into the Senate February, 1947. Those of the Missouri Legislature were entitled "Resolutions in relation to elavery," and were introduced December, 1S4S the object of both the same, to deny the right of Congress to pre vent, or prohibit slavery m territories, and to de nounce a dissolution of the Union if it did. One was parent to the other, and I presume no man will deny it. And here I make the exception which truth and justice requires from me. I have no idea that the mass of the members who voted for the resolutions in the last General Assembly, had any idea that they were Calhoun's, or considered the dissolution of the Union, which they announced, as a thing in actual contemplation. lint ciiey are not tne less injurious on that account. They are the act of the General Assembly, and stand for the act of the State, nnd bind it to the car or Mr. Calhoun, and encourage him more than any event that has taken place. But they are not the sense of the State, nor even the sense of all the members who voted for them. The true sense of the State, and, I doubt not, of a large majority of the members of the last Legislatu-e, was faithfully ex presspj in the resolves and instructions of the previ ous Legislature, which I hid received and obeyed. not only in the letter, but in the spirit. These are they : "Joint Resolution in relation to the Miouri Compromise Act or iSiU Resolved, That the peace, permanency and welfare of our nitional Uuion, depend upon a trict adherence to the li tter and spirit of the S'h section of the act of Congress of the United Mates, entitled An act to authorize the people ol Mi'Souit territory to form a Constitution and State Gov ernrncnt, for the admission of such State into the Union on an equal footing, with the original States, and to prohibit slavery in certain Territories' approved Match 6, 1820. M Resolved, That our Senators in trie Congress of the United States are heteby instructed, and our Representatives requested to vote in accordance with the provisions and the spirit of the said eighth section of the said act, in alt the questions which may come before them in relation to the organization of new territories, or Sutes out of the Territory now belonging to tbe United Stales, or which beteafter may be acquired, either by purchase, by treaty, or by conquest." .The resolves passed the General Assembly of Missouri on the 15lh day of February, 1847 just four days before Calhoun brought into the Senate of. the United States his fire-brand resolution?, which I denounced upon the ppot which have been adopted by the Missouri Legislature at the last session, and from which I now appeal to the State the whole Slate.

to kill! and although the political doctors may prescribe both, yet, surely, the political patient w ho has taken one, has aight to talk a little with the doctors before he swallows the other. r Yes, citizens ! Congress has the power to legislrte upon slavery in territories, mid to admit or prohibit its existence, in fact, to compromiso it. She ha3 the constitutional power, but can never hereafter exercise , it. The new dogma of no power in Congress to le- j pislate on the subject, has killed all compromise, i loose who deny the power cannot vote for it: it would b" a breach of their oath. Tliosa who want uo slavery in (bo new Territories will not vote for compromise; and thus extremes meet combine against the middle and defeat all compromise. The resolutions of Mr. Calhoun have doue this; and to talk about compromise now, is to propose to call Methusaleh from his tomb. The elTcct, if not the design, of his new dogma, was to kill compromise and drnd it is. The constitution will not permit him ond his followers to vote lor any compromise line. Opposition to the extension of elavery will not permit northern men to do it; and thus there is no chance for any line. Principle cannot be compromised. The Missouri compromise was not of a principle, but of interests after the principle was established. The first question put by Mr; Monroe to his Cabinet, was, as to the constitutional power of Congress over the subject. That being established in the affirmative, the application of! the principle was matter of detail and of expediency. " I have shown that Mr. Calhoun supported the abolition of slavery in the territory of Louisiana; I have now to show that he did the same thing in a State in the State of Tex a si The case was this : In the session of 1 Si -1-45, two resolutions were adopted for the admission of the State cf Texas one, single nnd cbsolute, with the Missouri compromise in it: the other authorizing nrgitiations with Texas for her admission on an equal footing with the original States. The Senator from South Carolina was then Secretary of State, and virtual President of the United States; and in that capacity he eeized upon the absolute resolution, selected it, and applied it to the State of Texas, and thus ran the Missouri compromise line through that State, thereby abolishing slavery in a State in a part of -a State making one part of the same State free soil, and. one. patt slave soil, and ro it stands at thi day ! Before that act of Mr. Cilhoun, the whole Slate of Texas, was slave soil made bo by the laws and constitution of Texas. . The question with oilr Congress whs, how to admit her consistently with her right as a sovereign State ! The House tf nohition imposed a restriction an abolition, in fict, of slavery, ir all her territoryehove.SG deg. 30 min., and that was a great deal ; for the State extended in one part to 42 degrees ; the Sonate' amendment imposed nothing; but proposed to treat wilh Texas, and.to admit her upon agreed terms. Mr, Calhoun stfized upon tbe Ileuse resolution, and adopted it, and thereby adopted the Missouri compromise, and imposed it. nöt upon a territory, but upon a State. He abolished slavery in a State ! and in this he carried abolitionism further than any Barnburner ever proposed ; for they limit their abolitionism to territories. This Mr. Calhoun did, and d.d as late as March the 3d, 1815. There is no dispute about it. Gen. Houston charged him with it in his circular address to his constituents,

Cong rets. Every body was struck with tho force of the accusation, and looked out anxiously for Mr. Calhoun' reply. Tiey looked in vain. II did not reply, and cu!d not. C'uiiVu. sioa would d no pud, ar d denial would make it wre. The fct was notoriou, nnd f public record.

The time id not far distant when the voters of this State will be call ed upon to decide, whether the Constitution, with all its acknowledged defects, hall remain as it is, or whether it shall be amended and revise, and made to conform to the earnest wishes of the people. Oilier Slates, Oliio, Pennylvania, and Kentucky ; are adopting rricASorcs to reform their Constitution-, and in all of theui liiere appears to bj a remarkable ou incidence of sentiment on one point; to . wit: that all officer shall le ekclfd hit the people. The day Jias passed when the fTrhda rT this principle are tat be deterred from-itrftdvijedctr by the denunciations and" coarse epithets of. those who are alraid to trust tli people with power. The people have a right to ruse, and those who deny them are tyrants at heart, let their professions to the contrary be what they may, The main difference between a free government and an absolute monarchy is,' that in the former the people are considered trust-worthy, and in the latter the rulert; and in an exact proportion as any government incorporates in its organization the principle that the pe'p!e are not nt to be trusted, in the same propor tion does it cot? tain elements which, if fully developed, will lead to an absolute despotism. Then why not elect all officers in a free government, judges a well as goernors, postmasters as well as members of Congress! But this is not the only evil which results from our present system. The present oppressive State debt, which had well niffh crippled the energies of this otherwise prosperous State, was the offspring of reckless and improvident legislation, that can on ly be prevented, in future, by a constitutional barrier prohibiting the contracting ofany public debt, for any purpose whatever, without at the same time providing means by taxation for the annual payment of the in terest and the gradual redemption of the principal. IJesides a system of common schools, adequate to the wants of the people n to be provided, whose toundn lions must be laid, not in the mere letter, but in the spirit of the Constitution. Taxation alone will never make good school , especially in a State where much of the public fund, which was 6et apart tor education al purposes, has been squandered nnd misapplied. We hope the people will agitate and investigate this sub ject, so that they may all be prepared to vote, under standingly, on the first Monday of August next. - MasA. County Democrat.

About 10 acres per day with a machine adapted to this section of country, and 14 tn 16 acre per day with ihoe suitable for a prairie, may beeim Ued . the usual days' work fur a hand and two burses tn plant all entnnleta. Another practice hisalao been added, to wit: that of kort horin in the spring ; a prores by'which the earth between the row m loosened or cultivated, by a cheap and simple machine, by a man and liorw, to the extent of six lo ton acres per day.
