Hr. G ROVER. As chairman . of the
Committee om the Bill of Rights, it may be
expected of roe to state briefly the reasons
which todaovd them to report this section as
. it standi.
Religions as well as civil liberty has been
of progressiva growth in onr country since
Che time cf the revolution. The two leading
States of the Union Virginia and Massa
chusetts when they adopted their constitu
tion!, recognized the right of the4State to in
terfere with and control matters of religion.
I will read a clanse which still remains a
part of the constitution of Massachusetts:
- "A the kappineas of a people, and th good or
der and preservation of civil arorernmenta entire
lr depends, npon piety, relirion and morality; and
as these cannot be generally didfased thronphont
the community but by the inMitntion of public
worship of God. and of public institutions in pie
ty, religion and nWality; therefore, to promote
taeir happiness, and to secure the good order and
preservation of their government, the people of
this Commonwealth fcrre nit to invest their
legislatnre with power to authorize and require,
and thelefrisUtore shall from time to time amhor
ixe and repairs the sereral towns, pirilies, pre
eJneta, and other bodies politic, or religions socie
ties, to make suitable provision, at their own ex
pense, for the institution of the public worship of
God, and for the support and maintenance of pub
lie, Protestant teachers of piety, reliirion and
i aa cv a
Ullll M Mr osst, Wr InaOl aw
mm taw 1i i iiy la aniiaatfow
Saw ntlgUai s Uss."
morality In all eases where aacn provision shall
"T not be made voluntarily."
:.' The first portion of this c'ane only ex
ii . presses the common conviction of the Ainer
T: - ican people, and upon which tLcy uniformly
f ' act. That the happiness of a people, and
the rood orler of a governmept depend upon
true piety aad morality, no one doubts. But
to say that therefore religion should be es
tablished and sustained by the government,
is to jro back two centuries in the world's
bistorv. Under this clause creat civw abases
and much tyranny grew up in MiFsachu.wtt.
Laws were passed requiring that a certain
portion of a man's annuel income should, be
devoted to- the sopport of a particular
church called the " stauding crder," to tbe
exeUtioa of all others. Citizens were coi-
frelTeoT cTTCff ptnaltie, to; attend once a
quarter nponthal chcrcb. Similar leyisla-
tion was bad in Virgihia, when the Ej:-co-"
pal church, a " Church f England" as the
favorite of the State.
When the State cf Maine was stricken
from Massachusetts in 1823, it was a lead
ing point of contest in her constitutional
convention whether the clause I have just
read should be retained in the new State;
bat it was rejected.
The arguments of the gentleman from
Clackama, (Mr. Campbell) were the argu
ments in Maine again$t any change from the
Massachusetts constitution in this particu
. Ian But, at this time, not a State in the
Union approves or recognizes in their con
stitntiona the clanse I have read from Mas
sachusetts; and her own people, following
the more liberal example of tier offspring-,
"v. since 1820 have eradualiv disregarded it
hcm3clves. .
e late constitutions of t'jc Western
have, step by atep, tended to a more
distu
eparation of church and state, until

tate ol Indiana, whose new con-
atitotion

iHe gentleman from Coose thinks th
eeUo ignores religion and reoraJUy in the
Ctata, and Tefers ta the history of France,
flaring a certain revoiatkn there, as illus
trative of the calamities which befall a peo
le who pursue soch course. Mr. Cliair
ttian, I do not read the history of France in
the same lisrht with the gentleman. It is
true, a public convention did there resolve
thai there was no Go.1, and that death was
otfi .wiim kecp. jsbx litis aid not occnr
t run til for cetacr'w previously the public
, .mind had become ienroralized by a anion of
Church ad sUtc, promulgating and enforc
ing forms rather than faith, conventionalisms
V rather than true morality.
X, My reading and reflection teaches me that '
4 the Cbristiau religion grew op, not only un
aapported by law, but even against the laws
ad edicts of the government where it ori"
iVed, and that its early teachers always,
with Kost scrupuloas care, rejected tempo-
ral authority aud honors; and the great cor
, . rnption of that faith, as contended by the
Protestant church, occurred in that period
V tho middle ages, when there was a union

i $jtj threats that if thia or that
provision is
,ton of the people will become prejudiced
funst tlui constitution and vote, against
ie adoptioa of tho constitution we. may
4aake. The gentleman, (Mr. Farrac,f6ayg
Ihat the religious portion of the community
are already disjrastcd with this convention
,on account of Ute vote of this body refusing
o employ a chaplain to cuiciate daring the
letting f the convention. Jbt may or may
not be so. The geutlencn (Mr. farrar.)
may think it. It Is way fir him to say it,
but another thing for me to believe it. I
want to make a const! U tion for which I can
vote myself. I do nO want to leave this
convention with a conr Nation made by my
votes that I mnst go t me and vote against
at the polls. So far u I am concerned, I
want it to have my approbation, to embody
what Is right in and of itself without refer
ence to outside imaginary influences or opin
ions which gentlemen may conjure npon this
floor to induce you of I to vote thia way or
that. I admit that there are persons in this
community end npon this floor who hope to
arouse prejudice agaiaat thia constitution, If
this nnu-ndmeut is not made 1 assert it to
be equally true that-: there are others who
would oppose this constitution if the prohi
bition against appropriating the public funds
to pay "for relipian services be stricken
out. Bat I am not here to adapt myself
altogether o the opinions of either of these
classes of persona, I am here to determine
pon correct prindLt what is right and what
is wrong. I have great respect for the gen
tleman (Mr. Campbell, of Clackamas,) who
offers this amendment, I believe that He is
sincere. With him, I believe that morality
and private virtue aud a proper sense of de
pendence Bpon nn over ruling Providence
are the true foundation1) of a nation's great
ness. Bat sir, what is the theory of our
government npon tbi!"": subject? It is that
the government ,chav, be segcratcd from
1-';arcue and tn& vainiainaace ana aamm
of tC iton: thai religious duties
shiTt be no fiittion of the government.
And why? Becnase the country contains
persons of all religious denominations, as
well as aon believers, and if you have reli
gious services carried on and paid for by
government, yoa necessarily tax all the peo
ple to support some one religion, let their
sentiment be what they may. This is the
Inevitable result and cannot be avoided.
But :t is not the function of government to
carry on religious services. It is not con-
ttituted for that purpose. If it is the duty
of government, why not ro the whole Dgure.
Provide for an established church, so that
your people may be furnished with "religious
services"' by the State; that they may be
taught their prayers and their catechism,
that they may have religions instruction ac
cording to law and views of the dominant
sect in their houses and parishes. But gen
tlemen say that this provision will prevent
the services of a chaplain in either branch
of the legislative assembly. T.hat is not
true, Mr. Chairman ; were I a member of the
legislative assembly and the question was to
arise whether a chaplain should be invited
to Eciate in that body, I should bejrovern
ed by considerations cf this nature: I would
ak if he was a holy man, a roan of practi
cal piety, and one who bad at heart - the
rood of his fellow-men, if he possessed those
qnili5cations I chonld vote to invite him.
Bat if he were one of tho;e stamp pulpit
orators and fanatical demogoaes with which
our generation i cursed, I sliouIJ vote
njainst him; a pious and good man would
not 19 insulted by being asked to pray with
out pny. lu yonr legislative asemblv are
men cf various religions sentiments, so i:i
your penitentiaries, you find men of ail sorts
of religions convictions and predilections.
Are you goiug to "prescribe that some par
ticular ruiniitcr out of some one of all the
religious denominations of the country shall
minister to the rcli-rious wants of these un
fortunate men, without reference to their
own opinions or preferences? This would be
adding persecution to pnnishtnent, it would
be so far establishing a particul r rfliion.
It would be making religious services" one
of the functions of government, aad there
fore I oppose the amendment. As to the
talk about in?.l;'lilv and atheis t?, .1 p vv en,

Mormon ' Settlement I Ortgon Brl jbam
Toen
Indian Agent R. II. Lansdale, who has
just returned from a trip to the Flathead
country, reports to the Superintendent of
Indian Affairs that a year ago last May
about thirty Mormons from Salt Lake City,
with wagons and stock, established them
selves on Salmon river, in this Territory.
They are said to have raised abont one thou
sand acres of excellent wheat during the
present season. In May last, Brigham
Young came down to the Salmon river set
tlement, accompanied by seventy-five men
and thirty women, and returned with a part
of bis retinue to Salt Lake, in June, for the
purpose of bringing down a large number of
the " faints, " to make a permanent settle
ment. Salmon river is a large tributary of Snake
river, and empties into the latter on the
north side, nearly opposite Grand Konde,
and is entirely within this Territory. The
cy is said to contain much excellent land,

The dancing of Miss Chapman elicited
mnch applause, and the comic siuging of her

THE question as to whether a man ean be a etnslst

tion for politicians to dispute about st pleaswre. But
qutttton as to where l th free and Uave kjfetc men
can nny goods cheap. Is tka one that Ihaetftue neople
of Oregon are interested in.
The man that pays h'gk rents, " fares sumptuously
every dny," and ahove all credits out his goods ts those
who are slow par. mnst of necessity sell foods high,
or he will " go iuV' While be who sells for emsk dotcn
and no grumbling, ran afford to sell low.
Thete are ten stores In Corvallis, all selBnf on a
credit svstem. Kovr, 1 propose to make nine a CASH
STORE, and those who have any Ceuh or Ptwrlnrt to
purchase goods with, can buy of me 10 per cent lower
than they could if 1 was d 'ing a cradit im-inasa. Tbe
man who pays for his goods when he purchases them,
will not hava to psy (richer than they are reaHy worth
to make good those accuauta that are not paid f'r ia a
long time, and in some Instances not paid for at all.
Aud this works no hardship to those who wUh to
bny on credit, for there are nine other stores In town
wliete goods cau be bought oa credit, by paring a lit
tle mute than they are worth. Tbe other merchants
in town are a very clever tet of fellows, and f them I
commend those who have not the ' ready' to buy with ;
while to those who have '
Ca-.li, Butter, Egga, Pork, Bacon, Wheat, Oats, Phiu
