"We have sousrht in vain through all the Radical organs, since the adjournment of their Corvallis Convention, for an exposi tion or solution of the following which appears in their platform : fiVftofa?. That we will, as we ever have, Runnort the State Governments in all their Virfeta. as the most competent administrators of thir domestic concerns, as the turest breastwork 'asrainst anti-republican tenden cies, and preserve the General Government it its wbole constitutional vigor. "Without stopping to eorreet the bad grammar of the above, let us examine in to its construction and intention. It reads like an endorsement and affirmation of the doctrine ef Sute Rights j yet the par ty wbicli made the resolution declare that doctrine to be a treasonable heresy. Have they by long use and practice become so -enamoured of treason as to rush into it wheresoever they find it ? Surely their professions and performances do. not square with, each other in this matter of State Rights. We cannot misinterpret their language in assuming that, when they eay the State Uovernraents are "the most competent administrators of their the States' domestic concerns they mean the people of each State have the right to decide in what manner their own domestic government shall be con ducted. Now, let tis see if the men who made the above resolution are true to their own pledges. The Radicals of Oregon, with their brethren in other States, sustain the aetion of Congress in passing the Civil Rights Bill over the veto of the President. xThey approve the Act as it passed. By the provisions of that Act that clause of the Constitution of Oregon which prohib its negroes from coming and settling in this State is declared null and void. Again, the Constitution of Oregon de clares that negroes shall not be allowed ... I nr il O - a Tt. tne rignt 01 suirrage in me otaie. a " Civil Rights Act declares this clause of our State Constitution nnli and void, ana, further, makes it a penal offence to with hold the right of suffrage, and every right or privilege held and enjoyed by white Citizens, Irom negroes, lnat uonstitntion was made by the people of Oregon, and was, raUSeraa republican in form by the Congress "and Executive of the United States-. It was the authoritative voice of the people in respect to the management of the domestic affairs of their own State. The. Radical platform asserts that they will support the State Government in this right; yet the very men who made it their standard-bearers, candidates and or gans, all declare their approval oMhe Civil Rights Act, whieh not only deprives the people of Oregon of the right to man age their own State affairs in their own way, but makes them subject to fine and imprisonment for undertaking to do so. This is' supporting r the State Govern ments in all their rights, as the most com petent administrators cf their domestic oneerns,' with a vengeance I It is like supporting a friend in a fight with a bully - by. knocking him down and tying hij hands, and then etanding complacently vj to cneer on me puny in nis Drutisn as eadhs on the prostrate man. But what do the Radicals mean by pre serving " the" General Government in al) ..its Constitutional vigor V What do they call the General Government New Eng n4?-.the Cpnes8 alone? the twenty, five States which are represented in V ash iegton ? the Executive ? or- the whole thirty-five or six States of the Union ? ..A rxl lin tier rsv constitutional viff '"or," agreebly to what Constitution do they "mean ? And. what sort of preservation ? .Lincoln's idea of preserving the Consti vtntion was by trampling on it j the Radi -csl Congress preserve it by tearing the 1 old ine all to pieces and patching it here and there so -as to make it mean the op 'posste of what its framers made it; and Wendell Phillips and Fred. Douglass, the rtwo leading spirits of the party not in of fice, would preserve it as some do their -dead, by hnrning it to ashes, and puttipg it out of sight forever. We should like ' to know which cf these several modes of flUdic&l preservation of the Constitution 1 the Radicals of Oregon propose to adopt, .ftad which of " Governments " they ac cept as the General Government, in their 'e Sorts to-preserve the same in its "whole "constitutional jigor." '; ' .rAs 'we remark above, we have sought iu T&ia for any explanation or oScial in Jtcrjretation cf this portion of their platf fbrra ley scy other portion ot it in their accredited organs. . We .. are certain the psopla would hke to hear from them as to whether they mean just what they say in their platform ; whether, if they d; they also actually sustain the Civil Rights Act which utterly nullifies and makes penal the substance of the resolution; and, lastly, whether, when they promul gated that platform, with this State Rights' plank in it, they feally believed the doctrine of State Rights to be a " treas onable heresy," as they have declared it to be? THE BARDACLC. On Tuesday last, notwithstanding the unfavorable condition of the roads and the lowering sky, upwards of 3,000 sturdy Democrats assembled at Brownsville for the purpose of participating in the pre viously advertised Barbacue. Prepara tions had been made on a most magnifi cent scale for the entertainment of ail who chose to attend. From early in the morning till near noon delegations from the various precincts came flocking in regardless of wind or weather. At 11 o'clock, the procession, headed by the Aurora brass band of twenty-two pieces, and 43 young ladies dressed in fed",, white and blue, carrying small ban ners on which were inscribed the names of each State and Territory, marched to the east of Brownsville about a quarter of a mile, where tables had been set and covered with an abundance of everything to eat. After dinner the vast assemblage repaired to where a stand had been erect ed, and James II. Douthitt, Chairman of the meeting, introduced to them Hon John B. Weller, of California, who made a speech of an hours duration, reviewing the Civil Rights Bill, 'the position of the Abolition party as regards negro suffrage, and the effect of negro equality. He proved to the satisfaction of every candid thinking man that the intention of the Civil Rights Bill was to confer the elect ive franchise on jthe negro, and that the endorsement of Congress by the Abolition party of Oregon was an endorsement of negro equality. Mr. Weller is an easy, graceful speaker, and his manner of deal ing with facts as he finds them, has been productive of much apod wherever he has poken. Hon. J. S. Smith, of Salem, was next introduced to the audience. His speech was a masterly effort. He showed that for the last four years men in the employ and dramng pay from the Government as Generals, Colonels, etc., who never were engaged in a battle, spent their time and the money thus illegally possessed, in traveling through various portions of the United States and villifjing Democrats as "traitors," ''secessionists," etc. He discussed the workings of the Freedmen's Bureau, and Bhowed from numerous tel egraphic extracts that the pretended loyal : Abolmon mends ot tne negro were, tnrougn tne workings ot tne our, using him for their owja private gain, and were inflicting on' the negro cruelties the most barbarous. Space will not permit us to give a more extended review of the speech of Mr. Smith. Suffice it to say his arguments were convincing that the object and aim of the so-called Union party was to rivet upon the American people a centralized despotism, and that the'only salvation othe liberties of the people was through the efforts of the Democratic party to again assume control of the reins of Government. Great credit is due to the Democracy of Brownsville and vicinity for the man ner in which the entertainment was con ducted not the slightest thins bavins occurred to mar the harmony of the oeca sion. ineir liberal preparations tot tne yearnings of the inner man, far surpassed anything of the kind we ever witnessed ; fMt a w - and there was enough left to have made a second dinner for 4,000 people. Long lve the generous hearted "Democracy of Brownsville and vicinity I A Fact. It is a fact that during the present campaign, the Abolition papers of Oregon have not presented a single objection to auy of the principles of the Democracy as enunciated in their plat form. 1 heir speakers have not mention ed that the Democracy had a platform lne reason is apparent, our platform of principles takes a decided stand against negro suffrage, oppressive , taxation for the benefit ot rich bond-holders, and high- protective tariff, for, the benefit o New England manufacturing lords The Abolitionists are in favor of all these measures. V AN Abscrditt. The cliarge made by the Abolitionists that the Democracy of Oregon had leagued together for the over throw of the Government, and to resist the draft, is too- absurd a proposition to be entertained for a moment by asy thinking man. What would be there suit of a resistance to the draft ? War What the result of war ? Loss of life devastation of, property, and increase of taxes! row, would not Democrats be sufferers in the destruction of property, and would not they have to pay their propor. tion ot the taxes t ro sane man wi believe such clap-trap nonsense. From all portions of the State comes the cheering news that Democracy is re eeiving new accessions to her ranks daily. Men who have heretofore acted with the Democracy, see they were gradually but surely being led to an endorsement o: centralised power, and ire now returning to their first love, r . Is n Equality ? The refusal of a justice to marry a black man and a white woman ; the refusal of a hotel keeper to lodge or feed a negro j or of a church to sell a pew to a negro, subjects, by the Civil Rights Bill, the "offending" party to a fine of ? 1,000 or imprisonment, or both. ' NEGRO SUFFRAGE. Wc often hear persons declare that if hey were satisfied that it was the inten tion of the Radicals to force negro suf frage upon the States they would aban don the party and vote with the Democ racy. We know of no better rule by hich to judge the intentions of a party tian to take the declarations of its lead ing members and the acts of Representa tives and the platforms of its Conventions. We need not refer to the declarations made by leading members of the so-called Union party, in favor of granting suffrage to the negro. They are so numerous and so well known that it would be an iusult to the intelligence of the peoplo to repeat them now. We venture the assertion that every one of the Representatives and Senators in this Rump Congress, who are opposing the President in his efforts to restore the Southern States to their prop- r places in the Union, are in favor of the immediate enfranchisement of the negro. his is a position so plain and can be prov en by acts, so incontrovertible that any person possessing an ordinary intellect cannot fail to see it. Let ua examine the proof. During the present Session of Congress by nearly the" same vote that was given on the Civil Rights Bill, over the veto of the Presi dent, an Act was passed conferring suf frage on the negro in the District of Co- limbia. And we call attention to the fact that this Act was made a law in op position to the protest of nineteen-twenti- eths of the iuhabitant&of the District af fected by it ! In the only spot within the boundaries the Union, where popular elections are held, and where Congress can claim the right to regulate the right of suffrage, a body of revolutionists claim- ins to be the Concress of the United State, gives the ballot to the negro ! Ev idence is not vet wan tins to fasten this odious and damnable doctrine upon the so-called Union party. Under the Civil lights Bill it is claimed by its origin-i tors and supporters that the negro Aaa the right to vote in every State in the Union. And this position is at least par tially acknowledged by Chief Justice Chase, who recently declared in a speech, at a meeting of the friends of negro suf frage, held in honor of the passage of the Bill, that it was " a great step in favor of universal suffrage." It cannot be denied that Chief Justice Chase is good authori ty with that party. His opinions and declarations have always been in favor of . and should a case ever arise under this Bill, no one can reason ably doubt that he would render a decii- ion that negroes have the right to vote under the Bill. Under the pretense of giving the negro Civil Rights, by the most unconstitutional and infamous legis- ation ever practiced in this or any other country, the.Radical, or Union party hope to accomplish negro suffrage by a J udi cial decision ! Aside fioni its unconsti tutionality, this Civil Rights Bill is the most infamous fraud ever perpetrated up on the American people. It will prove to be the ttep by which a desperate party triTZ attempt to confer the elective fran chise, in every State in the Union, upon a race to whom three-fourths of the people of this country are unwilling to extend it This Bill, and the act in relation to the District of Columbia are sufficient to con vict that party of holding to this odious doctrine, but this is not all the evidence to which we will refer. The Colorado Bill and the Bill that passed the House of Representatives, a few days ago, by a vote of 99 ayes to 42 noes, changing the organic acts of all the Territories so " that there shall be no denial of the electivelffisn should be supported from- the . i . i . ii,. i.... franchise to citizens of the United Stes because of race or color," is so plaUfthat it is impossible for that partyto escape conviction from a too confiding and out raged people. Throughout this vast ex tent of territory, out of "which future States are to be elected, so far as an act of Congress can do it, negroes are permit ted to vote. This amendment has .not passed the Senate j that it will there can be no doubt, having passed the House by the same vote that all other bills of this character have heretofore. We call espe pecial attention of those who adhered to Douglas in the Presidential"' cohle'stM 1860, to this. How does this kind of leg islation comport with the position you then held with reference to theTerrito ries, and how does it compare with dec larations of your great standard bearer. " this Government was made on a white basis for the benefit of the white man Will you longer remain with a party, and give it your support, whose doctrines and practices are so directly the opposite . of that of your great leader, -and of every political opinion of your lives Now let us examine the platform of the Union party in Oregon, adopted at Cor- vallis. The third resolution reads as fo lows : , " That holding the cardinal principles oi our Government to be that the right of repre eent&tion goes with taxation, we desire a full recognition f all civil and political priv ileges to the inhabitants of the States lately in revolt as soon as compatible with national safety and Jhe protection of loyal people in tnose states They. " desire a full recognition of a! civil and political privileges to the.nAa&- itanls" of those Southern States. It will be no difficult matter to understand the meaninsr of this resolution, when it 3 can be ascertained who are " inhabitants, A white man is an inhabitant, a negro is an inhabitant, so i? every other person hether he be an Indiau, Chiuaman, or ly thing having the form and being, any ining navmg a human creature. By this reso- ution the Radical party of this State are fully committed to a " recognition " of the civil and political fvotinir privileges f the necro. We think that from this array of facts no one, not blinded by partisan prejudice, can escape the conviction that the so-called Union " party are in favor of this infa. mous doctrine and that they will, if not condemned by popularNysfavoronsum- mate their damnable pje " the equalization of the races." Thrnk of this matter, and act before it is too late. . STAHD FIRM. On Monday ' next you are to decice questlom that must affect the peace, pros perity and harmony of your country. Never in its history has this Government been threatened or assailed by the eue miesoffree institutions, with more vio- egcj thau now. A traitorous and revo-! utiouary assemblage ot men calling them selves th Congress of the United States, with impious hands have seized hold up.. on the Constitution bequeathed to us by our fathers, and are attempting to tear away the bulwarks erected by them to protect the States against the aggressions of centralized power. After four years of war, declared to have been prosecuted to restore the Union, this revolutionary body of fanatics and traitors have ac knowledged by their acts that the Union is not restored by denyiug representation to the States lately in revolt. Degrading conditions are imposed precedent to the admission of those States into the Union by these enemies of popular liberty. And the acme of their wickedness and perfidy is being consummated by studied systems of partisan legislation, designed m to per petuate the power they have wickedly bused, in their own hands. A President, chosen by the suffrages of their own party, unwilling to be the in strument by which the rights and liberties of the people are to be subverted, ed, the konor and integrity of the eountry tarnished, nobly stands between the peo ple and the usurpations and revolutionary schemes of this body of traitors. The Democratic party, true to its ancient tra ditions and principles, has rallied to the support of the President in this contest. ts support is honestly given ; it asks no favors that he may have to dispense. Ob the side of the laborer, mechanic, and poor man it ia arryed against non-taxpay-ing bond holders and a mooted aristocra cy, contending for equal taxation and op posed to repudiation. Voters of Oregon ! these are questions jous will deeide. Upon yoir decision de. pends your -own liberty, jrour property and that ofirour posterity after you. If yon decide eorre ctly, you will have done your part in the work of redeeming the Government from anarchy, misrule, and revolution. Let every man who is in fa vor of perpetuating the Government as we inherited it from our fathers, unite with us in our effort to sustain it, come squarely up to the work. Let there be no faltering now, and victory will crown our labors. If you want to be taxed to support the nejrroes of the South in idleness vote or Mallory and the rest of the Radical ticket. If you want to pay Sat a swarm of use less office holders to keep up an antagon ism between the Southern negroes and their employers vote the Radical ticket, headed with Mallory for Congress. If you think the families of the "freed- ury, while the orphans and widows and families of whito soldiers are left to pro vide for themselves vote for the Radi cal nominees. If you think negro soldiers entitled to all the praise for the suppression of the rebellion vote with the Radicals If you want negroes to vote in Oregon vote the Radical ticket on Monday. If you want eleven States stricken from the flag of the Republic vote for Mai lory, and the Radical ticket. If you don't pay taxes enough and re ally eh ta- -contribute, afew. hundred millions a year to feed, clothe and edu oate the negro gentlemen,-' who ought to work as you have to vote , with the Radicals. . 4 If you don'fr'want a " white man's Gov ernment" vote with the Radicals, If you want the Government carried on for the benefit of shoddy swindlers and negroes vote with the Radicals. If you want labor taxed and wealth protected at the expense of labor vote with the Radicals, If you want agitation and strife, bust ness paralyzed and the country bank rupted vote for Mallory and the Radi cal ticket, The Dif ficulty. Be it remembered by the' people, that, the Southern States have acknowledged their defeat in their resort to arms; have expressed a willing ness to comply with the laws of the land; have repudiated the Confederate debt annulled their ordinances of secession again resumed their position as members of this Union, and elected Representatives to Congress,, who are refused admission by the t Radical members. Why? Be cause if tliy are admitted the power to force negro suffrage on them Is gone, for. ever' gone I , rpXf I 1 f 1 Tl tTMlTf1 A lj OVERLAND DISPATCHES. DATES TO MAT 20. ' General Nwa.

The Democratic State Convention nominated Charles M. Kay of Cincinnati, for Judge of the Supreme Court, and H. S.

Ueorge 11. Pendleton addressed the Con vention, congratulating the Democracy on having once more regained its legitimate position in the hearts of the people. He muted his endorsement of the President, but regarded him as the present salvation of the country. allandighnm spoke in the evening, say- ng, "the support given by the l'emocraey Andrew Johnson was the most honest ever given by any party to a President. It was an uiii-cltish support, with no demand for omee. 1 he lemcray owed nothing to the Republican party, and did not intend the Kepuhlicau puny shall owe it anything.
