Judiriiijj from the report, we nhould say Mr. Brown is hard to suit, lie " abliora Douglas's Squatter Sovereignty, detests the good Lord good-devil policy of lite President's "TSnii, and is not satisfied with ' Black's Ooserrntions,' nnd ho looks with anxiety nd some fears for Buchanan's export nt the opening of Congress." He maintained that slaveholders have the right to carry slaves into tlte Territories, nnd to hare slavery protected, first, hy the Territorial Legisla ture, that failing, then hy Congress. He declared that he would not be satisfied with the reiteration of the Cincinnati Platform t Charleston, as it had two faces. The platform mutl contain pmtrr.tinn to slavery tn the Territories bj Cungress. If this as refused, he was ready to " break up the Charleston Convention, and the National Democratic party of the land."

Tiiis I aves tne just as fur from nse -r-taitni? what my leul rights nro, as when I asked tiie question; nnd the pompous dec laration of these popular sovereignty m-ii in favor of leaving the people of the Terri tories perfectly free to form nnd regulate their doni"s!:e instiltilions iu Iheir own way siibjet't only to the Constitution of the Uni ted Slates is equally iinmeniiiiiu'. If popular sovereignty is set up in oppo d'taiii to fuudtiinrnlal law, it is to be scouted ns, destructive of constitutional liberty. As it is hero written, it menus just nothing at nil. l!:tt this doctrine is not only, as I snM, su'iver. ive of ;rovcrmuciit and absurd, but it is utterly impracticable. I do not Fay those who ntivoi-alo it are nil di.shoiie-t. Men are sometimes sincere in error. Nor do I claim to be infallible. I it t the idea that the people of a Territory are le!t to do as they pleas''-, and that parti 1 who advocate this doctrine tire in favor of any such prac tical application of it, it will be r.-jii upon examination, is nil a mistake. It is paid by this saute writer that the provisions of the Knnsas-Nebrnsku act tne believed to be iu entire harmony wilh the Constitution, and under that the people of Kansas possess every riht in respect to their domestic institutions exercised by the people of reiueylvatiin under their Consti tution.

The sumo person repeatedly it.oved to extend the .Mi.-ouri Ciniiproitiisu line to lite Pacific Uccuu, uud voted for it.

' luwiiii; the people of Kansas to pts upon the Constitution which the Courrntion should form for thi-in. I make tln-sv slntetnnits, not as prrsonal to nnv individnul, but to expose the iticon sis'encies of popular foverchrntyiti'S, ffi-uer ally, and to show that its advocates hnve practically trampled under l'cct tho very doctrines which they prcuch. Snme persons understand this mnnzino article its louceifiifr the riyht to rxchido slnvt ry from the Territories. 1 f any person is brii ir misled, I ask him to read it enrtj r.dly. It (lo-s not udvncato the doctrino that t'lu people of n Territory have the ritltt to cxcltido slavery ; Lut tho writer says; " It follows necordin? to the decisions of the Court, that slave property stands upon the :iuio footing ns other property, nnd is entitled lo the sumo rights and immunities, and in like mniinrr is dependent upon the loenl authorities and laws for protection.' This is the l.mguiige of the author of this article on popular sovereignty, Ifyon con die that, then slavery is in tho Territories, Ihe sumo as any other property. How nre yon to get rid of it? Is other property suli ject tn conliscntiou? Can this I.ej-isluttire of Ohio conhscnte your property; If slave property is upon the snmn footing as other property, slaves can be" no more confiscated than oilier property. An nrticlo attributed to Jndgo Muck, which first Appeared in tho Washington Constitution, in r ply to the magazine essay, takes the same position ns the nuthor of the ensny, that slave properly is the sumo ns nny other species of property, and entitled to the siinie protection in the courts. The magazine writer insists that tho courts can not protect slavery, unless jurisdiction is conferred on them by the Territorial laws. So if the ljrgihhitureof tho Territory confer ho jurisdiction upon the Courts, ho asks how can those Courts lmvo jurisdiction upon this sul'j"ct? If he will look nt the Kan-i-ns Nebraska bill, l.o will find it says tho Territorial Courts shall have jurisdiction in nil cti.-c arising under tho Constitution. Il' therc'ore, tho Constitution guarantees shivery iu ft Territory, ils Courts have juris diction by the organic act to prevent it. No other property lias a special provis ion fur iisbmclit. If you will read the Kansas-Nebraska bill, yon will find an np- poal is allowed from tho Territorial Courts to the Supreme Court ol the Lulled States, but is limited, with one exception, to cases where the amount in controversy exceeds a lliotbnnd dollars the exception is iu Tavor of suits involving title tn slaves, iu which the right nf appeal is given without regard to tiie amount iu controversy. Tho man claiming to bo his muster can tako a case involving his title to the Supremo Court of tin- United States, though the negro be not worth ninety-nine cents. Ibit on tho other Im ml, a citizen of tho Territory may hnve other property involved in litigation to the amount ol nine hundred and ninety-nine dollars nnd tiinety-nino cents, ami if tho Territorial Courts do him injustice, ho is without remedy. Why this special legislation in the Knti sas net for tho benefit of slave property? The nuthor or the net must have designed lo have slavery in Kansas or he would not have provided for litigating the title to such properly between different claimants. According to tho Cincinnati Platform, which ws the creed of the Democratic par ty until the Dred Scott decision was made, tiie people of the Territory havo no right to exclude slavery while the Territorial condi tion f.ntinw-s. It carries out tho doctrine of what is known ns the National Democ racy in every particular. Oue of its resolu tions declares: " That we recognize tho right of the peo ple of all the Territories, including Kansas and Nebraska, acting through the legally and f i'r'y expressed will of a innjority of actual residents, nnd whenever the imuiU of tle ir inhabitants ju.-tip.rs it, to form a, Consiiirion, wih or wifbotir domesie slave-, ry, nml be admiM in'o ho Union upon, fi rms or p rfci-i equality wifli he ofhec S'lifcs." Dy saying fhnf slavery rnny be excluded or tidm'fi d by flic inliabianfi, of a IVrrifo rv, when Che r numbe rs jtisifies lie forma ion of a S'ne Cousio'ion, if is nei.i-ssnrily implied ha Ml hen hey hare no power.

If ho came in when he had bot-d only wo rows yon would rebttka and wild l.itn buck. If my popular or er.-i.'ti'y friends nnderakc lo exclude slare ry from a Terriory before lUcj liare pet pie eiioti.'h to make a Sae, he slave pow. i-r will whip hem and send hem back.
