Another fact for Mud-Sills.

A fact has cotne to light, in connection with the Territorial Since Code of Mexico, which may well astonish any one but a be* liover in latter-uay Democracy, of the "mud* sill" species. It is asserted that the slave* drivers in that quarter, to satisfy their Bogging propensities, have turned their hands to the enslavement of white men. They hav - enacted that any citizen employing other citizens in '.he capacity of laborer# shall have the privilege ot beating, thra b» ing or caning them to his heart’s co ntent, provided he does not break their bones, and that the parties so thrashed shall have no redress at the law 1 They have taken a prac* tical mud-sill view of the mission of \P* Democratic party. They interpret the po* sition ol the pro-slavery leaders in Congresi with the native candor and simplicity which might be expected from the honest and cop* per-colored den tens oi Santa Fe. The-Re* publican members of Cot press propose to repeal this unsightly si ve-codp on the Ijj* atant. Let us see whether the Democracy will dare to offend slavery by joipipg in sa just a movement. A CflAXOt TO% Tltt work i-fn view of the lo d ot wrongs our political rulers have saddleJ us with, we propose that, henceforth wo drop the title, “Sovereign People,” a&l adopt the obviously more appropriate ytdHsf '•Suffering People.”
