‘3 2 NR, DOUGLAS ON HIS SOUTHERN PILGRIMAGE, Extracts from his Opening Southern | He Sticks to his Kansas Hobby of “Popular Sovereignty.” | [From the Memphis Eagle and Enquirer, Nov. 30.) ] Jude Douglas arrived in this city on Sunday, and y ss terday delivered a political speech at Exchange Building. ‘The Judge was accompanied on the stand by a large nuam- ber of his political frients. Amoug them we noticed | Gov. J.C. Jones, Hon, K. W. M. King, Hon. J. Knox | Walker, 8. P. Walker, Esq., I. N. Barnett, B. F. Dil, ksq., | and others. S | Judge Douglas was introduced to the audience by Gov. Jones, as follows: — Lapis AND GRNTLEMEN—My pleasantand agreeable is to announce to you the Hon. Stephen A. Douglas, Iinois. (Cheers.) In addition to that pleasure, I have the higher pleasure of saying that he is here to address you upon the great political questions that agitate the country. Of tom it is wot necessary that I should speak: he pown himwelf able to speuk for himself, The rest of the introduction was lost amid the cheers with which it was greeted. Tne Judge, on rising, was greeted with shouts of ap- pause, but quiet being restored, and he, haying mounted 4 chair that he might be better seen and heard, proceeded to speak as follows :— Lapis AND GENTLEMEN—I feel no small degree of reluc- tance in attempting to make a political speech to you to-day. T have bad quite as much experience in public discussions during this year as was agreeable to me. Of all things on carth most unpleasant is it for a man to be called upon for aspeech after the election is over. Pending a contest, when the passion and sentiments, and the patriotism of the people are aroused, a speaker has something to animat: him, aud to induce him to exert himself to present his & Uments in a clear light to bis audience. We have ju | passed throngh a strogele in Llinois involving issues which 1 believe to be vital to the perpetuity of this Uawa, and the peace and harmony of the different sections of ths re. public. T would not to-day vield to the request to address you, but for the fact that T desire to know whether demo- erats are the same in Tenvessee as they are in Ilinois. We bave hai in lilnois, during simmer, Governor Joves, and our democrats say that he preacuvs same doctrine to them that we hold tw be orthocox in our own community (immense cheering.) So long as we live under a common constituvion, any | political creed which cannot be proclaimed wherever that constitution is the supreme law of the land, must be ruinous and fatal, Principles ought to be avowed the | same ip Tennessee as in Ulinois: the same in Lo.visiana as in New York; the same in South Carolina as in Massacbu setts; the same wherever the Americ the American soil, A creed of one political part country which cannot be thus announce: must be radically wrovg. In Illinois it bas to fight against a political organization, sec character, Sectional in its principles, sectional aud sectional in its ation, The republican 0° x tion party North constitutes the main body of ail the enemies of the democracy. There that party i* weces- vthern passions, Northern “That's 80."") 1 have had ya “stump” in Tinos th dare not cross the Ohio river them. Can any political whieh is contin passion, preju J see tion? Tam going to address you to-day as I an in the habit of addressing Hiinois audiences, Ido not expect to say anything but that I have said over and over again during the late canvass of my own State. in Iilinois, Mr. Lincoin, as the nominee of the abolition party, has dis. | tinetly defied his principles in bis opening address, And | prominent in his platform are two articles, namely—that a | house divided against itself cannot stand, that this govern. | ment divided into free and slave States cannot exist; that they must all become free or ali glave—all become one thing or all another, otherwise this government could not persovally exist. The other proposition that he ad vanced was a crusade against the Supreme Court of the United States because of the Dred Seott decision. Upon those two propositions 1 took a bold, erect, explicit and unequivocal issue. I maintained that this government can exist forever, divided into free and slave States as our fathers made it, each retaining the sovereign right to pro tect slavery just as long as it chooges, and abolisi it when ever it pleases, (Cheers.) It is fatal heresy to say that the local and domestic institutions of the various States must be uniform and equal. Uniformity in the local and domestic institutions is neither possible nor desirable. There are many individuals North and South who think because a particular institution is beneficial in their own locatity , that therefore it must necessarily be wise and useful throughout the whole republic. 1 for one believe that this confederacy was not predicated anded upon the basis of uniformity among the different inetita tions of the diff rent States. On th knew, as well as we know, th and broad ae this, with such a production, there must necessarily be a corresponding variety in the local and domestic institutions of the differ: ent States, each adapted to the interests and wants of each locality, Our fathers knew that the tmstitutions adapted to the granite hills of New Hampshire were unsuited to | act and deed of that peoy NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1858. Tnever saw the wisdom or justice of his voting at all, nor that of making the property qualification a New York being a sovereign power, if she chooses w- retain that line of policy, it is her business, not ours. In Maine they allow the nero to vote on an equality with the white man.

We do not choose to argue it with them—we argue it with ourown pee: we argue it at home, but not with other States. if you want slavery here in Ter ‘the good of your people, keep it. You must bo satisfied with it at home, and not try to force it upon us. We have Just as much right to exclude it as you have to introduce a.

It is folly for us to imagine that because we now have territory enough we never shall need any more. When this republic was made its original boundaries were enough, but afew years’ increase found us cramped, and ‘we demanded more, We required Louisiana to open a road to the Rocky Mountains. We required Florida to ‘open a road to the Gulf, We annexed Texas, with Cali fornia and New Mexico, We have now territory enough; but how long will it be enough? One hive is pen for ‘one swarm of bees, but a new swarm comes next year, and a new hive is wanted. Our nation is a young nati increasing by natural growth and inereasing by emigra tion, and our boundari it be enlarged. You may like it or you may dislike if ou can never fulfil your destiny without it, Men ‘say wo shall never want | anything more of Mexico. We were told so when let us alone, we will be friends with one another without | any disturbing cause of irritation. So far as this question — domestic institution, that no other State has a right to inter: fere with, that it seems to me it cannot, does not, admit of an argument, What is the just institution and policy with re- ference to slavery in the Territories Y—that,has been the reat disturbing element between the North and tie uth? The North have seemed to labor under the dein sion that it, as a section, had a distinct right and interest in making as many free States and Territories as possible. Many of you in the South labor under the same delu- sion, in making just as many slave States as possible With all due respect to your actions on this su)ject, per- mit me to say , that neither the North asa se ‘ion, nor the South bs @ section, has any right or intere.. in ‘hat question of slavery in Kansas. (Applause The cous itution Tecoguizes no such distinction as North and South, Tne constitution recognizes one repul!ic—uirty-two sovereigu States—and all other distinctions than those separate States are unautboriz.{ by the constitution. For the North to interfere and try to deprive the people of Kan- sas of slavery when they want it, is a violation of the rights of (le pe ple of Kausas, but not of the South. For the South to interfere and try to plant slavery in Kansas contrary to the will of the ple, if a violation of the rights of the people of sas, but not those of the North. It is no violation of Northern or Southern rights to say thatthe true prin- ciples of its constitution shall be carried out in all time to come. Hence, whether slavery shall or shal! not exist in Kansas,’ is a question for ihe people of Kansas, with which no State of the Union nor the federal govern: ment has any right to iuterfere one way or the other. Now, I will teil you right here why it was that I opposed the Lecompton ‘constitution, thotigh I never intend to revive the strife and acrimony that grew out of it—yet I will tell you why I opposed that instrument. T stated in my opening speech that I opposed the Lecompton eonsti- tution, not because of tho slavery clause contained in it; I ‘opposed it because I believe it Was not the act and deed of the people of Kansas. (Applause.) Others think it was the But I say you had no right to force it upon Kansas unless it was their act, embodying their will, 1 stated then and repeat now, that if Kansas wanted slavery she ought to have it; if she did not want it should never be forced upon her if I could preventit. hether she should have it or not is her own business, st nobody eise’s, But IT do not believe that the | Lecompton constitution was their act and deed, or embodied their will, I then asserted, and I repeat (o you today, that under our system of government, mo power on earth can rightfully force a consti tution down the throats of an” unwilling people; it is a viclation of the great fundamental principles of self- govern ment. It is no excuse for a Slave State to say that slavery | 4s a good thing; it is no excuse for a free State to say that freedom is a blessing. Bear in mind, you had no right to force a good thing on an unwilling people. But by assum- ing that it is a good thing or a bad one, you violate the great principles of State sovereignty. It is for the people of Kansas to decide for themselves whether freedom or slavery is a good or a bad thing; and the very question of its goodness or its badness is to be decided by the people ho are to jive under that constitution, and not by the North or the South outside the new State, I shall not go into an argument toshow whether I was right or wrong on the point as to Whether Lecompton embodied the will of the people of Kansas. Jonly state that the revult of the wptes onthe English bill. rejecting the Lecompton constitution U eight (0 one, is sufficient testimony to my mind that the people did not want it. If they wanted Lecompton, I was willing that they should have it. If they wanted a new one, | was Willing that they should have that. I intended then, as 1 intend at all times, to stand firmly by the principles of the constitution, and the sovereignty of the States, no matter whether it beuefits this or that sec- tion. (Applause.) And permit me to say to the demo- crate here presevt, that [never knew a democratic party, if they departed from its principles on a plea of expedien- cy, Without im the end receiving just retribution for the abandonment of that principle. (Applause.) The policy er of Union men, of constitution loving men, of sof State rights, aud State governments to stand by our principles and carry them out in good faith; id expediency take care of itself. It is not right for me to go before the Northern people and ask them to abavdon the principles in order to give greater power to the North by securing another free State? And if you admit it to De treason to the constitution to appeal to Northern passion, interest and pride, how much less easopuble it isfor a Southern man to s South seek by the same means to strengthen though it i m of principle. Ido not preteud lsto say whether there has been an abaudonment of prin: ciple; you decide for yourselves whether Lecompton embodied the popular will of Kansae. If it did, the rice growing plantations of South Carolina. They knew that the laws and institutions which were well adapted to the rich and fertile plains of I!liuoi suited to the mining districts of California. that variety of climate, soil production necessari created corresponding variety in interest, re- quiring a dissimilarity of institutions and laws aday ed to the wants and ipterests of each. it does not follow because African is @ good institution for you in Tennessee, that it is a wise ope in Vermont or New Hampelire. ’ All say on that point is this: that this repeblic was founded on the principle of State's rights sovereignty. (Cheers.) When the constitution was made the republic consisted of thir- teon States, twelve of which were siaveholding and one was free. ‘The doctrine of uniformity did not then pre- vail, a8 I had occasion many times to say. But suppose this doctrine of uniformity had prevailed in the conven- tion that framed the constitution, and when they were about to sign it bad risen and said that ‘a house divided against itself cannot stand.’’ “This Union divided into free and slave States cannot endure; they must all be free or all slave. Suppose they bad announced to theframers: of the constitution that assumption—what would have been the result? Do you think that the one free State | would have outvoted the other twelve slaveholding | States, and abolished slavery everywhere? On the con- | trary, would not the twel Weholding States have out | voted the one free State, and established slavery by an ir revocable provision of the constitution on every foot of the American continent? (Great cheering and applause.) * . . * . . . . Lfirmly believe th there is no safety to this republic: | there can be no peace, po harmony between the North awd the South, there connot be perpetuity in this govern ment except by the administering it in good faith upon these principles, upon b it was made—to wit, the right of each State, old or new, free or slave, to manage ite own affairs to uit itself, and then mind its own busi. ness, and jet ite neghvors alone.

MARKY A. BENNETT VS. DR. GEORGE BENNETT. (From the New Haven Journal, Dec. 4.) At the opening of the court an application was made for an order for the payment of an additional sum of money to Mrs Bennett, by her nusband, for the preparation of her case, Without making a decisiou, the exaininataon of airs. Bennett was resumed :— Mrs. Mary A. Bennett continued—When living in New York, in the winter of 849, husband proposed to get an office in Broadway, and have it beautifully fitted up, dark- ened and lighted with gas during the day, and he would advertise his pills—would dress me beautifully, and | should sell the pills and be the attraction to customers. I refused and was shocked, and as my health was extremely delicate, he could not press me into the scheme. When I bad been married about three months and was boarding with Rennett’s sister in Stepney, he was going out of town with his younger sister, and he refused to take me, because bis brother was there, and he wasafraid he would examine his books and get hold of his uncollected accounts for his own benefit. After he had gone, I was invited to tea with a neighbor; I said the Doctor had forbidden me going away; his sister, Mrs. Penfleld, persuaded me to go, and while I was absent the Doctor returned home, he was vexed because I was gone, and drove down there; I was sitting by the window: he beckoned me out; I went, and he scolded me for leaving home; told me to put ou my things and come bome; I went in and put on my things, and, while | was preparing, he drove home alone, and left me to goon foot in the hot sun; was in “delicate health” at the time the summer of 18511 was going with him to hie father’s, in Trumbull; we bad to pass the bouse where my brother and his wife boarded, in Bir- mingbom; I wished to call on them; he refused to stop ont! he bad driven across the bridge to Huntington, and then he let me get out and walk back, and carry my baby; he waited for me: in the spring of 1853 we moved to jeorge street, that summer T went to Branford Point with my children, expecting to stay two weeks; we went im the Doctor's covered wagon, in the evening; the babies were sleeping in the cradle; 1 wanted the Tector to bave the porters at the hotel lift out the cradle, with the babies; he refused, and took the sleeping children out of the cradle roughly, and laid them. on the piazza, sleeping: there was a lady there, who might lave prevented their actually touching the piazza: do not precisely reeollect: when we had been at Branford twodays, he bocter changed his mind, and wanted to retarn home; expeste: went home alone; he used to come | cover int d go back at night; one morning, when ye would say, ‘MI hed a young lady to stay * T supposed he did it to annoy me, it; he said it was so, and old me her nai he gave hora gold ring: I osked bim whe got the ring, and be mentioned the name of the jeweller he got it of: she was a girl who ed at the Doctor's business, and after that she used st nd told bim T © come to the house and inquire for the Doctor, but would | not come in; once | went to the door; could not persuade her to come in; Doctor went out into the hall to see her; 1 stood at the top of the stairs, and saw them talking to- gether fn the hall, she had her Gagers in the butionhole of the Doctor's coat, during that summer the Doctor was very unkind, and Leould not keep a girl; he interfered with the cooking and fire, and swore at the servants; ia the fail he would not allow fire in the furnace; used to let the fire down and open the windows: I had a small babe, and it annoyed me very much; once, while Messen | a lady in the parlor, the Doctor turned off the gas and left be turner! off the gas in the company ; the next spring, in 1854, T was agai ate health: we were having the house repaired, and we roomed at home and took meals at the City Hotel; I had two childrea—one of them &@ babe, one anda half year old; we rode from the hoase to the hot nd he used to drive off alone to his dinner, jearing myself and children to walk.

In preseace of B. K. Foster, Joseru Sugipon, Jr. Tn the presence of Mrs. Newman and my attorneys, I told Dr. Bennett he would not keep his promises; that ‘he never did; he had used personal violence, had sworn me, kicked me—turned my aged father from the house, thrown his hat and coat out; you've tried to destroy my children; gave one of them laudanum; and you have suc- ceeded in destroying ——. I related ail the atrocious things I could think of, and then said, “Didn't you do so, Doctor?” He said, “Oh, yes, yes, but I won't do so any more.” That afternoon the deeds were made to my father, and from him to me. For two or three weeks he was very pleasant and kind. Then, when I invited a lady to visit me, Doctor said she should not come; but as I had invited her, I did not like to deceive her; 80 Doctor went to bed and took medicine, and I sent the lady word he was ill, and her visit must be given up. After that, until we went to Cuba, he was more pleasant than he had ever been since the marriage, though he soon began to show his old ways again. 1 omitted saying that when we lived in Dix- well street, Doctor was in the habit of using protane lan- uage before my child, two years old, and it learned from fim to use profane words itself. Doctor said before the witnesses, at the withdrawal of the divorce petition, that Ishould have separate apartments. (The testimony re- lating (0 this topic was reserved for a private statement. Doctor wanted me to go to Cuba in the fall 1858, but I did not like to leave my children; Doctor knows that my sympatbies are readily excited by suffering, so he took to eating gruel and pretending to be ill; he would get up when the mails arrived and go to the Post Office, and come home and go to bed he said his health demanded that he should go to Cuba, and at last I thought my duty to him required should go; Doctor sent me to New York alone to engage to Cuba and get pass- Ee from the Spanish 1; on the boat to New York a lew Haven gentleman informed me that it would be im- proper for me to go alone to the places I should have to go to, and offered his assistance, which I gladly accepted; when we started on the passage to Cuba, we had hard got out of the harbor—{here some more testimony was re; served for a private interview}: in Hayaua Doctor would send me with other gentlemen, giving them my arm and asking them to walk with me, while he would sit down listening to music on the Plaza; Doctor went one hundred and fifty miles into the interior, and left me ata hotel in Havana in charge of —_——. with whom he had no previous acquaintance; he was gone four or five days: he desired me to come to him alone, and I, not understanding the language , objected ; he said it was all right—nothing out of the way in it, and said it Would save the expense of his coming for me; I spoke of it in the presence of the gen- tleman in whose charge I was left, a Mr. Gardiner; he said it was highly improper, aul contrary to the habit of the country, not safe; Doctor insisted that it would be right, but at last Mr. Gardiner persuaded him not to make me go alone; Doctor returned for me and took me into the country; one evening we rode out on horseback with some friends; the horse I road was hard to ride; we went slow, in single file; 1 became tired, and as I could ride more cusily on a canter, so I rode on first; a gentleman board- ing at the same house followed me, and as I supposed he belonged to the family and knew the road, I followed his Jead, until I began to fear he had led me away ly; Teowild not speak Spanish: Doctor had before this fett party and returned home; while we were in the interior of the isiand.—{More evidence reserved.)
