That I understand to be the decision of the Su- preme Court. I understand also that Judge Douglas adheres most tirmly to that decision; and the difficulty is, how is it possible for any power to exclude slavery from the Territory un- less in violation of that decision? That is the difficulty. " In the Senate of the United States, in IS06. Dit'isce Trumbull, in a speech, substantially, if not directly, put the same interrogatory to Judge Douglas, as to whether the people of a Ter- ritory had the... lawful power to exclude slavery prior to the formation of a constitution. Judge Douglas then answered at considerable length, and his answer will be fouud m the Congres- sional Globe under the date of June t), 1336. " t 17 I have not that answer, but I have his answer of the 2d of July, 1856, which the Senator from Georgia read yesterday, in which he says: " My answer then was, and now is" — Here is his senatorial answer in Congress here: "My answer then was, and now is, that if the Constitution carries slavery there, let it go, and no power on earth can take it away; but if the Constitution does not carry it there, no power but the people can carry it there.
