And consequently, we shall be prepared to acknowledge Squatter or Popular Sovereignty, as a rightful authority in the territories, whenever it shall be established by a decision of the Supreme Court, that any such sovereignty was ever bargained for or retained by the people of the territories, to be exercised by them in any actual or supposable case whatever. In concluding this article, which has been written more lor the purpose of eliciting information, from those who are neither "foolish" nor "unwary," than to dia. pense light and knowledge to others, we beg leave to say for ourselves, that we are not seeking for any temporal or politiaal favors fron) any party. The writer of this article, the senior editor of the Catholic Herald, has mingled in the politics of his native country, more or less aetivoly, ever since a period which includes two of the last years of Mr. Jefferson'* administration. The second year of the war of 1812 found him a Democratic editor, the third year a soldier, In which capacity he served in two wars, and for a period of fifteen years, and yet he never was an office seeker, or an applicant, and of course never obtained an office. Our readers may judge this to smack, perhaps rather disgustingly, of egotism, but we hope it will be forgiven on the ground that ill is too late for us to be fawning for political favors, unless they should come to us in the shape of political knowledge, which we shall always gratefully receive from those who are our most worthy juniors, but who will have the happiness—so m»y it be—to live long after us I Still, though We may have no great desire to live over our political life, we nave no wish to die with the reputation of a fool, and we are, therefore, prepared to receive as much information and instruction on the netf Idea of Squatter or Popular Sovereignty, as eur wore youthful and mora learned political friends may vouchsafe to give us in old-fashioned, plaiu lap. guagc! The Garibaldian idea of Popular Sovereignty is probably the molt practical and popular at this time, of any which ev«r preceded it iu Europe, aad may. eventually become praotical and also popular in the United States.

Hoppock, William H. Bhic-k. Mortimer Hendricks. August 10th, 1800. Our readers are aware that a difference of opinion has for soma time past existed between one or two of our contemporaries and ourselves on the subject of Squatter or Popular Sovereignty. On this question some of our friends hare chosen to follow the, to us, new ideas of a popular candidate for the Presidentship of toe United States, while we have humbly endeavored to fellow in the beaten path of " safe pkkok- DENTS," to adhere to the just powers of the Constitution, and to submit to the decisions of the Supreme Court, the National Arbiter m all such cases, made and provided. Nevertheless, we never were so "foolish" as to suppose " that the Dred Spott decision has modified or could modify," either the law of the land or the platform of the Democratic party. As for the law of the land, if by the law of the land is meant the Constitution of the Union, we presume there is no power to modify that but the power which ratified its delegated powers at the beginning. And aa for " the platform of the Democratic party," that may be according to the Dred Scott decision or not, just aa the Democratic party may decide, independently of the Supreme Court. But the fact that the Democratic party, for the time being, having espoused the new and peculiar ideas of a popular candidate on important constitutional and state rights' questious, does not preclude even the " foolish" and the " unwary" from trying to judge of the issues presented by the Democratic party, and the new ideas of their popular candidate, in conformity With the legal principles established by the Dred Scott decision. Nor does it matter anything in this effort of the " fpetish" and " unwary" to form a correct judgment of the platform of the Democratic party, or of the ideas of the popular candidate whe professes to stand upon it, whether or not the Judges who pronounoed the Dred Scott decision, or the lawyers who plead for the decision, " are open and avowed advocates of that candidate's position as to the respective limits of Federal and local jurisdiction in the Territories." It is well said by a logical contemporary, that " the opinion*" of the Judges " apd others" concerned in the Dred Scott decision," on the side of the positions" of the popular candidate, "are, of course, of no binding force." We, however, must humbly ana respectfully contend, though the effort may appear " foolish" to our learned contemporary, that the " opinions," the ment pronounced by the Judges of the Supreme Court in the Dred Scott case, are, of course, binding, or there are no bounds or limits set by the Constitution fa the " principle* of Popular Sovereignty." It is asserted, indeed, that the " decision of the legal case regarding Dred Scott, cannot be adverse to" 4 pertajn candidate's (' principles of Popular Sovereignty, unless we suppose the absurdity that the majority of the Judges of the Supreme Court decided aduerte to their oym opinion* ' what was the Jaw and the right of the p Now, ss far as the assertion goes, that decision of the Supreme Court adverse to the principles of th# Sovereignty, " unless we ' dity",—the Judges being - avowed adfocatea" of a eeftai# tial candidate's position a* to the 4*e limit* of Federal and local tion in the Territpri#*—the beat we be once more (a con. * " .1 — Whether it be Gladstone, varying the labors of the Chancellorship of the Exchequer by writing leaders for the Saturday Review—Napoleon III airing his imperial wit in the Monitpur— Cobden charging at the head of statistical squadrons through the London Economist—Edward Everett disputing the palm with the "Gunmaker of Moscow/' in the Ledger—Hi|- drcth abandoning the pursuit or historic feme for it subordinate post in the staff of the Tribune—each and all pay eloquent tribute to the dignity of newspaporial labor From the most disreputable, journalism has become the most honorable of the professions. , To stand at the bead of an influential paper; to speak daily to thousands and tens of thousands eager to catch the faintest murmur of your yoicc; to represent in yourself, or what is better, to lead, the intelligent public sentiment of the community in which yon rcsido; to be an oracle with thqse around yCm; to feel that the rich harvest of intelligence which smiles on every aide is, in some measure, the product of the seed your brain has sown imay well satisfy the most exalted ambition.BUSINESS CARDS.
