of interest to well nigh all the world, and of
inmost aa much advantage to kurepe as Amer
ica, it ia an extraordinary testimony to the con
fnleiice of foreign nations in the future of the
United States, that, aa the President saya, the
Consulates of that power are constantly tlirnng
d liy people soliciting the means of removal to
n country where labor ia more than ever in de
mand, and where good laud is to be had with
citizenship.
Thu operation of the Homestead Act haa
lieeii a marvelous success. Nearly a million
and a half nf acres have been distributed un
der ita provisions) "within the last year. Thou
euiiils of families have been comfortably located
upon freehold estates anirty large enough to
sustain tliein in comfort, but not too large to be
worked by men nf small means. It ia proposed
tu modify this beneficent law aa as to oiler spe
cial ad vantages to the soldiers and sailors of
the Ki'pulilic. Both the State mid its defend
tiawili thus be benefitted. The former will
bo delivered from the burden of maintaining
unnecessary forces at the risk of social disturb
ance from their sudden dissolution and the
latter will be rewarded with a secure and inile--pendent
asylum for the remainder of their
-day. The Southern iiiembera of Congress
conferred uu undesigned boon upon the coun
try when, by their secession, they rendered it
easy to effect a wholesome distribution of its
unoccupied soil.
No such measure, ws may safely predict,
would ever be passed by a Confederate Con
gress. To create small freeholds and to invite
Ireo settlers would he to utterly subvert the ao
jiul system for which the South ia iu anna. It
is tint, therefore, a temporary contrast that we

just satisfaction. The former makes it one of

They boost, also, of thu liveliness of their

it, then, that we bear of no emigration to such
comparatively unobstructed ports u Wilming
ton or Brownsville ? The former seems to defy
Attempts to seal it np, aud the latter waa till
lately easy of access by way nf Matamoras.
Hut we heard of no contraband cargoes of Irish
men or Germans. And for just the same rea
son that wo never heard much of European
emigration to the South. Tuuelave porter haa
never wanted any emigrants but the colored
aud compulsory whom it now Hilda wanting
in "every esaential quality of the suldier," es
pecially in the quality nf obedience, and fideli
ty. It has jealously monopolized the vast and
fertile but degenerate soil of the South. It
lias accumulated lauded property in the hands
of an aristocracy of wealth and race. It has
put every obstacle in the way nf free laborers
settling upon its open territories, knowing
well that their Vote aud influence would sooil
kill the institution which counts (he laUiera aa
capital and pays no wagea but in coarse food
and bard strine.
Aud the (internments nf Europe arc so far
in accord with their populations that they can
show tin active sympathy with a system thua
based upon the degradation and impoverish
ment of the masses. If moral sentiment did
out check any distinct movement in thia direc
tion, prudence would strictly forbid it. Not
only England, but also Krance, is fully con
scions that all the sources nf permanent supe
riority are with the free States of America.
Ye must have closed our porta to the emigrant
ship before we could have hoped to see the
South successfully compete with the North.
We must have been blind to one of the strong
est nf modern tendencies if wo have not per
ceived that the fugitives from Europe stetr their
vessels to the west aa naturally aa the swallow
fly south iu pursuit of the departing Sum : er,
or as the sparrows light upon the crumb-strewed

but a moral law.
It is with the law and the fact that Jefferson
Davis quarrels. He' is angry with us because
wo differ from bint and his adherents by habits
that are a second nature. All the educational

against the principles and the nbj.cts which he

the imperTcotiona are hugely in hi favor. But
we do not sod cannot believe in the right of

dom, discretion and great strategic ability to strike
from Die exchequer of a relentless and determined en
emy, throe millions of slaves, having a serviceable
property relation of one thousand millions of dollars,
winch gave them a labor use at home and a money
ere'lit abroud, and our nouiitry will forever austaiii
and perpetuate ihe act as the most decisive, yot blood
loss victory of the war ami we believe our greatest
hero ought to be our next President.
Unsolved. That we are grmiticd with the lale recon
struction and amnesty propositions of the President,
and look upon them as being best calculated to re
store the governmental reluiious of the revolted States
with the general government, while the clemency ex
tended to tho rebels ill arms ia a maguillcoiii aiid utiri
vnllod tribute to the pence and mercy of a great and
good novoi anient, tbut lives und melius to live, in the
pride and atteetiotis of its people.
Iteaolved, That while the Gray Eagle of the North
waa lighting the block Huxaard of Slavery in the
South, it waa cowardly aud unworthy of the British
Lion to go to sea 011 the Sumter and prey on our mer
chantmen, all tho while declining to show his teeth, or
in auy inaiinor 10 give aatisl'uclion to our iron clada
sent after him : therefore, his conduct is that of a
sheep killing dog, und his government must, be rospon
sihle for his sneaking depredations alike oiitrageoua
in a christian nation and iiitanioua in a wurlike people,
Jteiolmt, Thut the Kreuch invasion of Mexico, af
ter tho United Slates had offered to pnv her sobiecls
the eight millions of dollars dun from Mexican citizens
we regard us an evidence of unholy ambition, and an
uiipermissible intrusioa of the "Inland llyiuisiy," in
the all'uira of our comment; and if France' build's irou
dads for no iiimiigent pe; ;-'-', having no sea marine,
nor any port of their own open to ocean commerce or
shipping, the act ia piratical, a violation of the lawa of
mil ions, aud of her neutrality, lor which satisfaction
must hereafter bo made, or llie 7er tit Li be swept
from the seaa aa we swept the Coraaifs of Tripoli and
Algiers.
lietohed, That the democratic parlv (admitting It
to be in favor of a vigorous proaecuiion of the war)
by its alliliution with actual Hecessionints und rebel
aympathizera. has Inst 1I10 confidence of the nation,
and ought not to ask, und cannot expect to be entrus
ted with tho government and the winding up of the
wur 1 because ils councils would be disirucicd, and ils
ends perverted by tho demands of its rebel allies and
associates for favors and concessions, which if grant
ed would fuil to settlo wiih tha usual decisiveness of
war, the g-eat issues which have been uppealcd tn the
gauge of buttle and no permanent peace would be
insured, failing which, the blood ami treasure of the
nation will have been poured out in vain.
Rrtohed. That slript of all subterfuge, the creed nf
the Democratic parly of the North fs sluvery, and Ihe
olflces to sustain it; while the corner stone of the
Union party ia liberty, and the luamigouieiit of the
government to maintain it I That we believe slavery
and t u political power given by it, are no longer com
patible with freedom and Ihe iiislituiions of freemen,
and that in the irrepressible struggle of each for exis
tence on this continent, sluvery is dcstroriiig itself,
and must go back into the night of burbitnsiu whence
it originated.
I.ftihei, That while from our geographical posi
tion, we may not be culled on to enter tlie field of no
live war. yet we owe it to our brothers in anna in the
East 10 give freely of our substance 1 to elocl true und
unconditional Union mon to the nation's councils ; 10
carry our political Hag aa far into the ranks of our
connltesa enemies at tlie ballot box asonraruiiea have
borne ihe nation's banner into tho heart of the rebel
Confederacy, and like them to persevere until not a
foe remains to dispute the supremacy of justice and
order, law aud Uuvernment. And 11111 Uod uiainiuiu

Collector) to Tort Townsend. I ho bill ha
been referred to the House Committee on Com
merce, which has in turn referred it tn Use Sec
retary nf the Treasury nnd as he is known tu

sed measure will be defeated. In the meantime
Cole and Smith have been firiug away at each
other in the newspapers, a soothingly explana

The editor of the Union wa at the Union
meeting at Lafayette, and reports the following
among other incident:
There were just three copperhead in tho
meeting. 1 hev could not net out. for the
crowd that pressed them on every side and
would not give way. And those lliree copper
heads were about the moat forlorn looking spW
imens nf the sovereign biped that it bas been
our lot to heboid. Two of them emne tiear
fainting while Judge Williams was speaking;
and the third kept muttering between his teeth,
lint not so as to be distinctly understood. We
heard him any something like, "abolitionists,"
'111 love with iiiirtrcrs," "marry n darkey.
"take-Jeff. Davis iu mine," "too much of a good
thing'1 but we were unable tn catch the words
that went between these, und so failed to gel
ihe connection, if any connection there was.
He was evidently in hot water, bat there wa
no use o knockm .'
Yamhill county is all right nn the intiin ones

next June, according to thu number of vote

copperhead may any to the contrary, the entire
nlntu will do the same thing. Copperhead ism
is dying in Oregon lust at fast ns the rebellion
dies in the South. Tho rods of the two are
likely to be simultaneous, a their object are
identical.
