Resolved, Tl'nt we are in favor of the
perpetuity of (lio American Union, of tin
principle of Ihe Declaration of Imlrpeu
ilnct and of (lit Co'ililiitioii of ilit L'nitl
Htatet, and ilml we recojniz il,ee ihie
a the bait of our political creed."
The above It tlie fir-l revolution in (lie
Republican pUifuf in adopted m Albany
l'b, li!th. We hope there are f w people
in Oregon oho iliiwiil from iht doctrines
of lliii resolution, and at Impe the huidful
of thoso who do dient fiem them will not
bo materially increased by (lie fuel that
(lit principle Lave been indorsed by tlie
Black Republicans." Tli.rs aie at iLi
lima a fvw ignorant and unprincipled black
democrats Jo the country, who pretend lu
tay (bat (hey bate hiibcrtoaUay heroin
for of making Oregon a free State, but
line (lis "Black Republicans" are in fa
vor of making Oregon great aod prosper
out by giving the field h Lolly to fiee labor,
they have great mind to damn (be coun
try for all time by voting for nijrgem,
k.ne they don'l want to to fuund voting
with DUck Republicani."
We do hope that these Suloi 1 of black
democracy won't conclude to lear the Con
stitution into atom, trample on tho Decla
ration of IiidcjunJcric', and "bunt the
Union atl to mah," jist ka. tLo Block
Republican are fur the Union and (he
Constitution." Rut, niyt nun, what was
the uie of tuch a resolution ! Can a prom
inent infin of any politicul party be fuund
who calls the principles herein enunciated
in question I For the honor of the Re
publican party, we are proud to sny that
such a man cannot be found in I heir raukt.
They are all loyal and true lo tho Union
and the principles of the founders of the
Government. If a tingle exception enn
be found, we call upon the whole list of
locofoco organ, from tho Washington
Union down to Czapkay's organ, to spot
the man. If such a man exists, we dure
you lo point him out. "fciich men are only
found among radicul abolitionist and
black democrats. The loyalty of tho Re
publicans to tho Uuioti aud the Constitu
tion rendered them the apcciul objects of
hute lo the radical abolitionists during the
I'reaiilntiul campaign. They mora antu
rally sympathized with tho locofucos;
hence, sucb abolitionists ns desired to work
in a strong party, n'most invariably went
into the locofoco camp in preference lo
that of tho Republican's. Mr. Apple ton,
a violent abolitionist, edited the PorilunJ
(Me.) Argut, a Buchanan paper. Applo
ton was once secretary of an uboliiion so
ciety in Portland. Bcnj. F. Hullctt of
Mussachuselts, a leading locofoco now,
once published an abolition paper in Provi
dence, R. I. The nbi'litionist J. C. Love
joy aUo went into lie locofoco oump about
tho same time; to a!so Sulh L'nyno of 111.,
Stanley Multhews and Duibiu W'urd of
Ohio, with many others thul wo miylit
mention iu JUr. roiit sections of tho Union.
We recollect ulso that a correspondent wri
ting to the Anti-Slavory Standard cum
pluiuod that ho could not got subset i bo r
for that sheet because ''this infernal Re
publicanism" was getting lo be so popular.
But our object was to prove that leading
abolitionists and Iwi'linjj loeoficos are
found who are hostile to this article of our
creed. Let us instance a few who aro op.
posed lo the "perpetuity of tho American
Union."
Wendell F. rhillips, tho big gun of ub
olitinuivin, says :
''There is 110 remedy for the slave, but in
iho destruction of tht Government."
Tho lloston Liburutor, an abolition pa
per, says : '
"Justicoand liberty, God and man, do
niand tho dissolution of the Anurienn
Union and tho formation of a Northern
conl'eilorary."
Now let us aeo what lending locofocos
say. The Richmond iMirjuiror, a lending
Jocofoco paper, says :
"Suinnorand Sumner's friend must bo
Jiunihliod and silenced. liither such
wrelehet must bo hung or put in (he pi iii
'tcniiury, or (he South ithould prepare to
jnit the Union."
The Charleston (S. 0.) Mercury, in a
labored disunion article, says :
"Wo rejoice in any event which makes
common cause at the South, and foreshad
nwt her destiny as a separate and indepen
dent people. The result of Itrooks'a as
sault on Sumner is, that the lines of sec
tionalism have been drawn deeper than
before, to tho disgust of party hacks, lie
publicans, and the satisfaction of true
men democrat in tlie South."
Tho Richmond Kuquirer, in speaking of
the difficulties in Kansas, says :
'It will enable us to get rid of the Yan
kee Presidents, and to preserve Anglo Sax
on froedoin bv reviving (he old connection
with the mother country. Who would not
rather be ruled over by a lady like Uuen
Yio, than any nasal twanged gentleman the
Yankee laud can produce I"
Let ut now quote from a Buchanan
tpeech made by democratic ltrouks iu
South Carolina, Oct. 3d :
"I tell you, fellnw.cilizens, from the bot
tom of my heart, that (he only mode which
I think available for meeting it the slavery
isue it just to rear the Constitution of the
United State, tramyle it under foot, and
form a Southern timfedenny, etyry State
of tchich thall be a ilaetholUing State,
1 tell you that our hope is alone in the
South, and the only mode of making that
hope available h for the South by some
act to tfett a dlitohiHon of the AmerUitu
Union. These arc my opinions. They
have always been my opinions. A'tr
been a diiunioniit from the time J eoulJ
think. I shall vole fur Mr. Buchanan," Ac,
We next quote from a Duc)ianan speech
made by L. M. Keilt, member of Corgresa
from South Carolina, at Oraugeburg Oct.
Oth:
If Fremont it choten, you have lo
chooMi between submission and diitolution.
And wbon it comet to thai, he who dattiti
it a (Intlunl, and he teho double it damned.
The South it now moving,
and I dust she will move. If Fremont it
eh cted, the South must diiMolte the Union."
Seustor Mtun of Virgiuia, war-horse
in the b'utk democratic party, made a
ptecb Oct. 3d, during which he taid, as a
condition of the election of Fremont :
" IIiii one courto remains fur the South.
Immediate, absolute and eternal h partition.
Heltrr.fir better, to stand to tht yorlhrrn
Staltt at trt ttand to tht rest of tht world
' Lnemiet in war, in peart frirndt'
than to remain halting under a common
yovrrnmtnl, entmiet under the gain of
peace, or fritiuli at war."
The Charleston Mercury, in speaking of
a democratic jubilee, held at Ninety-Six
Depot, between Columbia anJ GrcctilleS.
C, Oct. 3d, aay:
"There wat tut one voice in this great
assemblage, Me diitolution vf tht Union
is neeeuary to our salvation."
We might quoto column tiler column
from ultra abolition and black democrat
papers and speeches of eralort, showing
(hat many leading men of both these par
ties aro open and avowed disunionists,
while tho fact that not one of these men luts
ever ken read out of the abolition or dem
ocratic jmrties, for their hostility to tlie
Union, looks very much as (hough those
pnrl'es were either controlled by disunion
ists, or dreadfully rotten. A man who
boltt a midnight caucus nomination, and
fails to rote for a drunken sheep thief, per
haps " regularly nominated" for constable,
it kicked, cuffed, and spit upon, as a "las
lard democrat," who threatens by departing
from tht time-honored usages of our par
ty," lo burst up Uie foundations of the gov
ernment, while such men as Brooks, Keilt,
Edmondson, Wise, Toombs, and a thous
and others, who unblushinyly declare their
wish to drive the parricidal sttel home to the
heart of the Union, are retained in the par
ty as orthodox members, afld not a single
locofoco paper North or South, even dares
lo question their rigid to a teat at the com
munion table.
These very Southern disunion!! we
have already mentioned aro men who con
trol the democratic party at the South, and
Czapksy's organ recently averred that the
late l'reidcntiul election was a Southern
victory.
If this be true, it is of course A disunion
triumph, at least it is a very good step to
woed it.
In view of all these facts, why is it not
proper for the National Conservative
Union, Republican party to introduce- a
Union plank into their platform f
A fuw words as to the Declaration of In
dependence. To the honor of the aboli
tionists bo it said that we have never yet
heard of nny prominent man iu that party
who called this sacred document, which
has Wn a standing text for all 4th of July
orators for nearly eighty years, in question.
Wo would to God wc could any as much
for the locofucos. Stephen A. Douglas,
the father of black democracy, said in
speaking of this document that "It was only
meant to apply as belwoen us and the
people of Groat Britain." It then simply
means lliut wo Americans are horn with
certain inalienable rights, which John Bull
has 110 business interfering with. A lib
oral construction, truly !
Tho Now York Day Book, a locofoco
organ, says that it applies only lo while
people. Indians, Mulaltocs, Spaniards,
Africans, and Greaser, then, were not
born with "iualienablo rights," according
lo this very liberal Day Book. As fast as
these dark-skinned tribes becotno ci izens
of our Confederacy, and are allowrd lo votej
we presiiino that the editor of tho Day
Book will stretch his charity so ns (0 make
tho Declaration cover them. We have no
doubt but what be has already stretched
it no as to cover the niggers in tho Alex
andria precinct, Louisiana, who voted for
Buchanan.
John C. Brcckinridgo, in a stump speech
at Hamilton, Ohio, wbich we find reported
in the Pittsburg Gazette, said :
"Look at the principles of this party (tho
Republican.) Listen to tho ignominy and
reviling which they combine to hurl on our
sister Stales. We are told the Declaration
of Independence is embodied in the Consti.
tution of the United States. The Declara
tion is an Abstraction. Put it in the Con
stitution and what would follow ? It would
follow that the Constitution must protect
every man iu his right to 'life, liberty, and
tho pursuit of happiness!'
You would find it interfering with the insti.
tutions of the States, and it would lead
our country rapidly to destruction. But
why do I speculate upon what it would dot
Long before this our Union would be oMiter.

We presumo Breckinridge it pretty good
democratic authority for throwing away
the Declaration of Independence as a mere
"abstraction," and worth about as much
as an old almanac or a patent medicine
handbill.
We could adduce ten timet the proof
we have, of the necessity of adopting this
resolution, and planting our feet on the
rock of the "Union, the Constitution, and
the Declaration," that must successfully

of Jo Lane introduced the till into the Sen

commissioners lo audit and allow these
claims, and also authorizing the payment of
them after being allowed, at the instance
of Seward the locofoco Senate concluded
lo look a little into the commissioners' re
port themselves, before they made appro
priations to pay thorn.
Bro. Pearne (and perhaps Peter ) made
a very silly attack on Seward al the lime,

I'crhapt nothing hat lrnnpird since the
November election lhat has tilled the dem
ocratic camp with tuch terror and dismay
at the election of Simon Cameron, a Fro
monter, over John W. Forney, Buchanan's
pel, to the V. H. Senate from Pemiylva
nia. It has fallen like a thunder clap up
on the Buchanan clubs and party whip-pert-in
in every district in the Uuion, but
specially in the District of Columbia. It
it a moral earthquake, which has dreadful
ly racked every creaking joint in the Cin
cinnati platform, started some of the nails
which Wise and Brooks thought they had
clinched, nnd well nigh dislocated the joints
of the cosy old bachelor-cage of Wheat
land, who sat on it comfortably smoking
hi pipe, and, with tho wand of democratic
authority, beckoning up from tho vntty
deep of the "filthy pool of politics" John
W. Forney, as a vory necessary stake to
be driven down in the Senate, to which to
attach one of the cord of the democratic
pavilion. The wand it stretched out to
ward (Iarrisburg, no doubt are entertain
ed of it magic power to bring up whomso
ever the President will, the command i
given Forney, my son, come forth! A
rumbling sound is heard, as of an approach
ing earthquake, there is an upheaving of
democratic terra firma, and when tho Sage
of Wheatland prepare lo embrace bis
darling Forney, up rises Simon Cameron,
butting his head right against the timbers
of the platform, smashing two or three of
its plunk lo shivers, and confront the
quaking old bachelor face lo fuco. 'Twas
a throe of Young America that brought
Cameron to the surface; Young America
thai has grown big under republican gov.
eminent, nud Sampson-like begins lo break
tho fetters, snap tho withes, and burst the
stays, of party drill. The soothsayers,
astrologers, and wise men of l bo North
and South stand aghast at tho ri suit.
They are unable to see why thesamo rules
of political trickononictry, which produced
Buchanan as a quotient last November,
should have failed in turning up Forney as
a sort of dividing point between tho quo
tient ant! an almost infinite number of
decimals, to the right, in the shape of uu
derstrappcr officials.
Tho slipping in of Cameron between
Old Buck and the decimal appointees, of
course crowds the whole row of under
strappers one remove further down the
scale, and decreases tho value of each ten
fold. Taking this view of the case, il is
beyond the power of mathematics to com
pute the loss tho locofoco party has sus
tained by the election of Cameron. There
was a wail wont up from tho democratic
camp at Washington, locofoco office se ek
ers wept and refused to be comforted, he
cause Cameron had crowded out Forney,
and of course Old Buck would crowd For
ney in nmong ihem, notwithstanding they
were nearly stifibcnled with " scrowging"
already. Alas! Alas! The lido of j.oli
tics, like that of ' true lovo, never uVs run
smooth." Of the truth of this poor Pierce,
as well as Forney, is a living witness.
After all tho hard democratic lying, expen
diture of cash, and Herculean labor to do
feat Fremont and savo the Union, what a
pity (0 see the Union so soon " busting all
to smash !" Wise uud Brooks threatened
to tlissulvo the Union if Pennsylvania
did'nt ekct Buchanan. Pennsylvania
cowered under tho threat, nnd gave the
South Buchanan for Preside!!', hut before
they turned him over, Biglcr just after the
vote of tho electorul college, proceeded by
authority of that Stuto lo brand him with
" Free Kansas." This cf course mode nn
ugly sore on tho old fellow, which exceed,
ingly shocked Iho modesty of Wise, and
caused the Southern tirc-caters, like
Brooks, Keilt, Toombs, and Orr, to mis
trust that they had been bitten in the bar
gain. While Pennsylvania it seems, had
aiii-auy elected several democratic mem
bers to her legislature, who, to make
themselves popular with ihe people during
tlie canvass, had stripped off their demo
cralic covering, and shown tho people that
tliey also were deeply branded with "Free
Kansas, and were in hoart, soul, a
sympathy, Republicans in nil except the
name. Three of ihcso men were no doubt
honest in their asscveratiuns, and, when the
election came oil" for Senator, these men
thought that as Forney had never yet had
the "Free Kansas" iron applied lo him,
there mi.'ht be a little damrer of h; h.
coining mixed up with Wise's woolly
goals, and thus become lost to Pennsylva
nia and Kansas, through embarking with
Wise in a speculation in " five thousand
dollar niggers" to " save the Union," and
to be ure to have Pennsylvania properly
represented in the U. S. Senate, these
three men bolted Ihe "regular caueus
nomination," and supported Cameron as a
man in whoso honesty they could confide,
he having stumped the State for Free Kan
sas and Fremont, which showed that he
mean( just what he saij, aad was too
honest to try to gull the ,-cople by whip-
pins the dovil round ibe stunm.
The taction f Cameron ws secured
Y
.A
by union of the Republicans, A uiericint,
and Free Kaniat democrats. A we said
before, il i purely a triumph of Young
America, which it fut outgrowing ihe old
fi.jjy trap of a corrupt and rotten party
drill.

anan' ofliciouMieii in meddling with the
election of a Senator from Pennsylvania
operated to defeat Forney. The fullow'mg
li tter it published in the Harrisbtirg Tel

Muppnta Murder.
We learn from soveral citizens of Yam
hill that fear nre entertained in that sec
tion of the murder of J. J. Kennard, for
mcily of (his city, by a man near Muddy
in lhat county, for whom Kennard had
been building a house. The story is, that
some person in passing the house taw the
proprietor drag Kennard out of the house
with a severe cut on the dial, made by a
stick of wood with which ho ha I been
knx'ked down. The man called to the
parson who wat passing and requested him
to bring a rope that he might tie Kennard.
He refused to do so, aud passed on, a he
didn't waul to have any thing to do with the
quarrel. As toon as he left he heard tho
landlord cull upon hi wife to bring a lope.
At the next house he got a neighbor lo
return with him, and see whut was up
When they got back, tho landloid had
Kennard lied, and was Inking him, covered
with blood, and his clothes nearly turn off,
back townrds A creek nrnr by. They
made the wretch release his prisoner, and
told Kennard ho had better leavp, but lie
said ho would not leave tho house till he
had got pay for his woilc. Since lhat time
Kennard has not been seen, and fi art are
entertained that he has been murdered.
Mr. K. has lived with us a good deal, and
was a young man of excellent character,
and we hope the suspicions of the popu
lace may prove unfounded.

out to investigate the matter.

Wo learn that a son of Judge Rowland
ngrd perhaps fifteen years, disappeared
from home somn two weeks ngo, and. afier
being absent some four or five days, re
turned nud gave the following account of
.himself: On the morning of his disap
pearance from home, ho wenl lo the barn
beforo day lo feed tbo horses. While
there a man rode, up, and, dismounted,
drew a pistol nnd ordered the boy to catch
his fathers' best horse and follow him, on
pain of being shot if he refused. The
lad, nearly paralyzed through fear, did
as he was ordered, and, saddling a horse,
started with his captor toward Portland.
II is enptor followed the road hut little, tak
ing trails mostly through the wocds, cx
opting wlicn it wa3 ncco.ssry lo cros the
streams at bridges. They slopped at scv
i rul places on the way, ntulsUid all night

lo be acquainted. When iu the neighbor

ou'.sido of town, and two more strangers
came to them, who, after convctsing in a
very low tone with his captor, went oil
down to town, and wero gono some time.
When thry relumed they all look the boy,
and went into the woods, and camped.
The boy lay awake nearly all night, when,
toward morning, Lo says tho men all fell

The fact thnt you nre now stenling edito

Bro. Pciirne is nearly on his Lewi, for
the following reasons : A correspondent of
the Advocate in Benton county stnted that
somebody bud raised 3230 grains of corn
from one kernel planting. Tho N. Y.
Times notices the statement, and thinks
that must bo 'some" for corn. Bro. Pearne
goes off iu ecstacirs at seeing the Advo
cate noticed in the Times ; quotes the whole
article from that paper, and puffs the Time
as a remarkably fine paper, (wishing It
distinctly understood that lie does nol past
any opin'on on it politics Republican.)
Ho thanks tho Times cordially for 'ac
knowledging the corn," nud winds up by
expressing Lis firm conviction thai tuch a
great corn country as Oregon can never
bo entirely '-busted up" by the outrageous
attacks of the N. Tribune.
Corn ha been the cause of turning a
great many men crazy.
t3T The Standard is still raining hail
upon those "drunken rowdies" thai con

at the Republican Convention at Albany,
we could not help thinking of the contrast
between the character of the members pres
ent and what we gcuerally find at a loco

single delegate tasted liquor while in Al

every man in that convention pproe

doctrine of Washington, that npon (he .

the erpetuity of the Government.
