Marion Co., June 0, 185").
Wo hnvo inserted tho foregoing conmin
nicntion without being able in our hurry tlm
week to enter into a lengthy review of the
principles laid down by our correspondent,
as tho platform of tho only truly republican
or democratic political organization in the
United States of America. Wo have never
yet decided upon tbe precise number of
yenrs a foreigner ought to reside in our
country before he is admitted to tho rights
of citiienship, but iiolliing can bo plainer
than tho fact that our presvut naturalization
laws need a very decided change. But
w hether tho length of time required by huv
in tho process of Aiiuriconizini immigrant
from foreign governments should bo fixed nt
twelve, eighteen, or tweiity-ono years, we
havo alw ays been disposed to leave this mat
ter discretionary with our w isost nnd most
patriotic statesmen, when they shall bo call
ed on to act upon this matter, in obedience
to tho sovereign will of nn enlightened peo
ple, who shall havo como to a conclusion,
after having fully discussed tho merits of tho
w hole ease.
Wo nro never dogmatical upon any point
until wo have, after deliberately weighing
all tho pros and cons, uiado up our mind
from what wo conceive to bo conclusive evi
donee, that a certain policy or principle is
clearly right, and decidedly preferable to
any other proposed.
Of ouo thing e are fully convinced, that
the principle advocated by the American
portT, however thev msv M n.lin
hated and opposed by d
reaicd by their dupes, are inihe maiu trur.
rrjinliiVaa, and democrat, and if thia
political organisation, fails to avert the
torm that hang over us, our government
will be broken up, and the ship of state will
go down into the unfathomable deep, whore
Greece aud Rome have gone, and that be
fore many ywr. VV9 ,r, not of that nr.

een many creed of ninny panic, whilst
they contained much that was good, mai
forf-iied nil claims to infallibility by their
numerous error. Henco our motto ba
olway been, "prove all thing and bold
fust only that which is good." and whiM-we
have adopted this motto for ourself wo have
always been proud to recommend it to
others, and we are very certain that if all of
our citizens would adopt this motto, mm
act like high minded and independent meu,
in investigating every subject, which is
forced upon their attention, by tbo coniliet
Ing proposition which nro now being pre
sented in this territory, wo say that if nil
r.anie would cut themselves entirely loose,
from the d"zy, senseless charms of party
names, nnd from tho dictation of such dem
agogue a o now have in mind, but will
not mention, nnd honestly investigato the
principles which wo advocate, ns though it
mm a matter which seriously alTected their
bi"hint interest", there would bo a tremen
dons revolution in tho politics of Oregon,
before tha close of another yer, a revolu
tion which would prove to bo of the highest
benefit to the territory, in every point con
ceivable.
The great difficulty is that multitudes of
people afe unwilling to rend and impartially
investigato both sides. It is not possible
for any muu, (at least wo honestly think so)
of mature years who is possessed of a clear
bead and nn honest heart, to support tho
party now In power at the close ofihepres
nt your, who will subscribe for our paper,
and any one, or all, of tho organs of the
opposition, and read them wiih the deter
mination to know what is truth, nnd what
is rrror, nnd then, after knowing, to carry
out his honest convictions nt tho polls, and
discharge bis duty to his country nnd his
God.
Just here a wido field opens up before usj
nnd we think of n thousand things which
wo want to say to this generation, and
which we propose to say iu due time. We
add nothing further, at present, t.ian " He
that hath cms to hear, Id him hrar."

them :
Hcsolvcd, 1st That the Parkville Indiutrial Lu
minary is a nuisance which has been endured too
Ion?, and should now be ab.it.-d.
ad That Ih. editors, to wit: G. S. Park, and
W. J. 1'ullerson, aro traitors to tho Kuit. and coun

Pfelmastcr Kendall lias been arrested in New

European emigration has fallen off very rapidly
of late. From Ilia records of Ih. Commissioners
of emigration it appears that there has been a fall
ing oil' iu Ui. number of arrivals during March and
April of this year from that of the two correspond
ing mouths of last yeur of 9,5-18. The arrivals
during March and Aprd 1854 amounted to3'l,90(i;
in March aud April, 1855, lo 5,358, showing a de
crease as above staled.
Lucy Stono was lately married to Henry B.
Ulackwcll. The parties signed a mutual prolei-t
against the laws of the Coinmonn ealth conccmiiii.'
marriage. We think Miss Luey must huve written
th. prolest herself, as it clearly contains a "Thus
fur shall lliou go aud no farther," as a sort of cer
tificate clearly laying down Mr. Blackwcll's metes
and bounds ns an equal partner, instead of a "Urge
lord'' as recognized by law. Wo shall publish the
protest next week.
The Wnow Nothings.
Tho doctrine of open organization and public
discussion is rapidly gaining favor among tlie mem
bers of this new party. The more moderate of
the papers which have hitherto opposed the organ
ization are beginning to yield assent to the correct
ness of the principles advocuted by Iho American
parly a. sound democracy and true republicanism,
but object to their policy us contained in (heir se
cret meetings. The great object sought lo bo at
tained by tins parly, by secrecy in selling the thing
on fool, seems now to havo been accomplished
and a disposition seems to prevail to make n moro
open demonstration of political policy than has yet
been made by either of the other political parlies.
There seems to bo a material difference of opin
ion among Ih. Americans iu different sections of
the country, as lo the proper position for them to
occupy upon th. questions of "Slavery extension,"
temperance, and the reforms of the day. In Now
Hampshire, Massachusetts, and most of the North
em btntes, the American party seems di.-posed to
eiulort. Iho "Prohibitory'' movement nnd the nnti
Nebraska measure, whilst in the South, and ir
some portions of the West: Iho oppos-te principles
seem to preponderate. There must and will be a
turning and overturning produced by the searching
scruty and investigation, which is so happily fba
tered by the liberty of speech and of the press in
our glorious country, until I he lino will be plainly
drawn between the true republicans, who believe
that "righteousness exalts a nntion," and those who
sympalhlte with the infatuated rabble, led on by a
blind party seal, or a strong sympathy for such
principles as demagogues are always zealous in
propagating.

From tht Morning Chroiticle, April 23.
We regret to smto that Jiuia hat ub
solutt I y rejected the demand nf the Allies
with reapict to the Third Puiul.
It will bo remembered th:it, after up
wards of a fortnight a delay toemimu I Mice
(Joktsciiakoff to nsk and receive fnun St.
Petersburg full instructions as to the Third
Point, tlie Conference hold n meeting last
Tuesday, and nenin on Thursday. On thiN
last occasion, ns wo have nlrendy infoimed
our readers, England, France, Austria, and
Turkey made their specific mid foi n.nl de
mands with regard to the conditions of the
Third Point.
Tlie Moitilair has already published to
the world that tho Western Powers insisted
on the reduction of the Russian licet, or on
the neutiiilizaiion of ilie Black Sea mean
ing by that the exclusion of all vessel of
war of till nations from tha Fiixinu. With
less than this the Allies could nut be satisfied-
It would have been ridiculous iu France
and England to withdraw from their occupa
tion of Russian territory, to abandon their
complete dominion of the Black Son, leaving
llnssin every means and power of aggres
sion nt her disposal.
Prince Gortschikoff required forty
eight houra to consider their demand, nnd
we believe to refer specially to St. Peters
burg, lie no doubt received a" prompt
reply, for the Conference met again ou Sat
urday, when he Russian Plenipotentiaries
announced that Russia absolutely rejected
the propositions of the Allies, and reused
to admit eeen the principle of the limitation
of her fleet, or of the neu rality of the
Black Sea.
Upon this, tho Conference occupied it
self in iho necessary formalities for placing
the facts on record ; and having signed this
last protocol or record adjourned sine die.
Lord John Russell, it was understood,
would leave Vienna on Monday, and we
may therefore expect that in a few days we
shall receive from him, in his place in Parli
ament, full explanations of the negotiations
in which ho has been engaged.
It uow remains to be seen how far and
how soon Austria will fulfill her engage
ments. By the treaty of the 2d of Decem
ber she is bound, iu the events of the failure
of the negotiations for peace, to advise with
England and France, with n view to concer
ting measures for the aitaiiiment of the ob
ject of tho alliance that object, and the
terms in which it is expressed, being iden
tical with those of the treaty of alliance be
tween France nnd England.
In one word, Austria is bound, if there be
I force in bonds, to declare war; and we
j earnestly hope, therefore, that, superior to
the arts of liussia, she will know how to
vindicate her truest interests and the just
cause.
On their part, England and France will
spare no effrt will o-rnrlcrn r, ...: c.
