man and understood br its readers, in
compliment (?) which, the reverend gentle
man pays 53 out of 60 delegates who com
posed the Territorial Convention, and the
thousands of democrats who hare endorsed
their action will he dnlr appreciated !
The course pursued by Kingslcy and
others like him, exhibits very clearly the
wisdom and necessity or the aaopwou nu
support of just snea a platform as that laid
down by the Territorial Convention which
met at Salem in April last. Kiiifrsley and
men nf that, ilk denounce it as " federal,
1mm it rmnires consistency, honesty and
fair dealing. How they chafe because they
re not permitted to dismember and over

Oregon, July 18, 185T.
There was one fact we omitted to note last
week, on this head. At the primary meeting at
Portland, the right of one man who offered to
- " , .
Tote was qnesuoneu, on ine groana iium ac
not a democrat, He was asked if he intended to
rote the ticket nominated by the democratic con
vention. He replied that he would vote for sher
in or auditor, (we don't know which) but that
he dnTut exnert tn rote the whole ticket. It was
AiAA ka tt im nirttt to nartiri nate in the meet
ing, awd his name was stricken off. Immedmlthf
ajWwrt,ttev.C. S. Kingslev's name was called,
aad in like manner, and for like reason, his right
to vote was narationed. He replied to the aues
tiea a to whether he would snpport the demo
cratic resolntioas in snch manner that he was per
mitted to retrain in the meeting. Does any man
doubt that Mr. Kingsley nnderstood his oi liga
tions wader this state of facte f It is as plain a
ease of intended fraud and falsehood as ever cx
latest. Km. Statesman.
Rosebvbg, July 2 1st, 1857.
E. Statesman In a recent issue of your
naper 1 observed an article copied from
Xew York Journal npon the policy likely
to be pursued by certain parties in Kausas
touching the subject of slavery. It was
pretty strongly. . intimated in . that article
that this disturbing element would be care
fully excluded from the Constitution, and
left to be settled by Legislative enactment
at the Erst or any subsequent session. To
this article yon appended a brief note that
might be construed into an approval of like
policy in this Territory, or it might be mere
ly a ea technical hint thrown out for any
one who chose to answer the interrogatory.
If the first I cannot think yon gave the sub
ject a careful consideration, and if the last,
to my mind your inquiry is susceptible to
an easy solution if the integrity and efficien
cy of the democratic party of this Territory
ta a matter of any consequence or impor
tance.
Y'oa ask why this question of slavery may
not be left out of the constitution and af
terwards settled by the Legislature r 1 an-
wer.
Firstly. It would follow as a necessary
sequence that all political organizations as
they now stand would be dissolved in the
very first canvass for members to the Legis
lature and in that contest their would re
main but two parties pro-slavery and anti-
Iavery.
Secondly. One of the worst evils that
has ever afflicted this country would inevit
ably ensue ceaseless agitation npon a
question which every good citizen wishes
to be and ought to put at rest once and for
all, by a Constitutional enactment.
Finally the democratic party would of
necessity lose its identity in such a general
commingling of new elements, and if the
name alone should be rescued from this po
litical chaos it tcould be just what Black Re
publicanism is sectional and fanatical. More
than this antes it should turn out that one
party or the other was overwhelmed by a
majority against which it would be rain
to contend, each successive election would
witness a recurrence of the same sectional
contests, controversies, heartburnings and
violence which the discussion of slavery al
ways engenders. A discussion of this kind
bringing into play the deepest seated purpo
ses and prejudices which have fonnd a lodg
ment in the American mind would not be
confined to political circles but would inev
itably worm its way into the social circle
disorganize society sow discord among
neighbors and beget bitterness and strife in
the very sanctuary of onr homes. On the
contrary if the majority in favor of one par
ty or the other, is but small, in the first
election, and the same all-absorbing topic
were to enter into each succeeding election,
who shall say that each party, exasperated
by a heated contest, wonld not endeavor to
maintain or strengthen its position by ex
traneous aid and influences, emigrant aid
societies and southern leagues. I fancy the
people of Oregon will not carelessly adopt
line of policy which would entail eonse
qvjeaees of which I think the above is no
exaggeration.
I am not willing to believe that you or
any other consistent national democrat are
ia favor of driving the party into the very
position which the opposition of all shades
and colors, are vainly endeavoring to force
as-i-that of being purely and exclusively a
pro-slavery party.
It is equally unlikely that yon are willing
to parsae such a coarse of policy, as in the
event that Oregon becomes a free State,
that she will not become a free State under
wholesome national democratic rule, but
a free State, governed aad controlled by
"sectionalism" and fanaticism, freedom
shrieking black republicans. Yet one re
salt or the other must ensue we have the
alternative. . . .
- The democratic party claims to be Na
tional, not sectional, neither pro-slavery nor
anti-slavery, leaving the whole question
right where the Constitution leaves it, with
the States and Territories when they shall
become States. Asa citizen of a Territory
it is admitted that a democrat may be for
or against slavery so says the Salem plat
form so say all democrats. With this doc
trine, it is perfectly possible for as to steer
clear of the eectionable Scylla and Charyb
dis npon which the opposition wonld rejoice
to wreck us. Once settled at the ballot-box
arpon this basis, and the will of the majority
incorporated in the Constitution, and the
question is forever at rest. And whatever
aay be the result, the democratic party re
mains National, mud with unbroken ranks,
and undiminished power to meet any exi
gency. CONSERVATIVE.
We stated some weeks ago that the par
agraph to which " Conservative" refers was
prepared daring oar absence, and did not
express oar views. Ed. Statesman-.

Edito Statesman Dear Sir: As the col
nines of your paper have been thrown open to
the discussion of the policy of introducing slave-
rv into irregon, i nave couciuaeu to ocenpy a few
leisure moments to give you my views on that
subject, and to state the reasons which lead me
to believe that It would not be for the best in
terests of Ore iron to have slavery here- Now
believe It is right for those who own slaves to
hold them, for beta raised in the South and edu
cated there, and having never lived out of a slave
state, till 1 cams to Uregon, l oo not nuovr any
thin else but southern rights and southern
institutions. I believe the southern States have
a right to maintain, if they choose, their institn
tions. and I also believe slavery is profitable in
the South, and for the best interests of the south
ern States, and that it is aiso weu tor me aorth
that slavery exists ia the South.
. But so far as Oregon is concerned, 1 believe
that slavery Wonld prove unprofitable and ruin
ous. Our country is not adapted to slave labor
in hardly any respect. Our agricultural land is
rerv limited and what tittle we have will soon be
entirely taken up by the sons and daughters of
those wno are aireaay in ine country, even if we
have no more emigration from the States. lint
tins will not be the case ; for emigration will con
tinne to pour into this country tor many years
to come: an emigration ot wnite laborers which
will be far preferable, in mv estimation, to no.
grot's either bond or free. Let us therefore hare
a free State, and insert a clauso in .our Constitu
tion providing for laws to exclude free nnrroes
Some of onr ablest men assert that it is impos
sible to keep free negroes out of free States by le
gal enactments, but 1 bog leave to diner with
them, and believe that the history of Iowa and
other free States shows conclusively that lawafor-
oiauing me emigration ot tree negroes can be en
forced, and have been successfully enforced.
ir
the majoriry of the people of the future State of
vsregon ucsire 10 acep negroes, son or jne, out ot
. i . . j . m
the country, they can do so by making proper pro
vision in the constitution. It is just as easy to en
force one taw as anotner, u tne mass ot tne peo
ple desire it. .
Surrounded, as vre are, en all sides r free terri
torv, and most of it mountainous, with the ma
jority of the sea-going vessels on our coast in
charge of northern nicn, some of them abolition
ists, and many of them having sympathy for the
negroes, or such negroes as are slaves, it seems
to me that it wonld be almost impossible to hold
slaves with any degree of security. Moreover we
have a great manv mea in Orecron. who think it
right to assist slaves to escape from their masters
and who would be running them off into the
mountains aud adjacent states and territories.
Slavery cannot exist to any purpose unless there
is a pretty unanimous publicsentiment to sustain
it aud surround it with all tho safeguards of legis
lation.
lint the present price of negroes and cost of
bringing them hers will prevent any prudent man
who has capital from investing it in negroes to
trausport them to Oregon.
Moncv is worth here twentv or thirtv ner rent.
a year, a good healthy negro man wonld not cost
less tlian SlDOtl delivered in Oregon. Twenty
five per cent, per annm on this amount is U375i
add to this amount at least $1-5 per year for
board and clothes, and not less than f25 more
for taxes and contingent expenses and we have
the round sum of 525 per year, saying nothing
anout sickness, accidents or ine danger or bis be
ing run off or any expenses an owner of slaves is
liable to on account of any evert acts, followed
by lawyers fees. Ac., Ac. "Now the best hands
can be employed for S.K or 40 per month at
any business except certain kinds of mechanical
work. At the Last mentioned rates, white men
can be hired and if their labor is not needed dur
ing tbe rainy season expenses can be stopped for
the time, but not so with the nagro. His expense
continues all the year rain on or shine.
lint some will say, if their work will not pay on
the farm, we can work them in the mines, but we
believe any mines worth working will continue
to be worked by the white men, neither chinamen
nor negroes will be permitted to work in any
mines which will pay white men for working.
Others say it would be very fine and agree
able to hare a negro wench to wait on onr wives
and daughters and assist them about their home
work. But 1 believe that all the assistance our
wives and daughters onght to hare in their house
hold labor will soon be obtained readily aad at
W expense from our own population. We are
not yet a manufacturing people and the time is
not far distant when there will be in Oregon any
great demand for female labor in manufacturing
and other branches of industry as is the case in
most of tbe northern States. Our women will be
forced to find employment in household duties for
ears to come, aud 1 see no reason why the scar
city of women in Oregon should cause us to bring
here the withering, blightingcnrse of slavery to
create strife and establish an aristocratic spirit
our midst to cause the rich man with his
slaves to lord it over his poor neighbor to see
onr sons working side by side with the rich man's
slave.
I have lived in Orearon eleven rears, and have
nown the Oregonians to be a happy and pros-
perons people, and 1 still believe they have too
much good sense to introduce at this time, any
such changes in the institn tions of tbe coun
try. Let us go on, as we have done hitherto,
and develop the resources of the country as time
and industry will allow us. Let us continue to
take advantage of tbe gramng country afforded
us and become gradually a manufacturing as well
as a pastoral people.
THOMAS KOKKIS,
A Corrallis correspondent informs
us that Avery has a grand scheme which he
broaches, for a Territorial Convention of the
soft faction whicb "doubled teams" with the
black republicans at the last election, to re
organize tbe democratic party on a soft ba
sis. We hope he will have a good time.-
robably the Standard and "OccidentaP
will begin to advocate it soon. The softs
are greatly troubled about a " split" in the
democratic party. Don't trouble yourselves,
gentlemen softs. The democratic party
stands on the " Salem platform." and was
never before so united and powerful aa now.
We are all the stronger for having got rid
of yoa.
. We are again compelled to defer a
communication from a Lane Co. correspond
ent npon the Liquor Question. We shall
try to get it in next week.
