OREGON TERRITORY

Some time since we noted the fact that con-
venton of the citizens of the Mississippi Valley
had been called at Cincinnati, TO take into coli
sideralion the Oregon question and device meas.
ures to The Interests ofihe STARE states. That
Convention has been holden, and at its head was
Col. X. NJ. Johnson, one Of the locofoco candi-
dates fol President. Resolutions were passed de-
caring our title unqueslonable 10 the Oregon ter
ritory lying between 42o and $40 4O north lati-
tude; and that 10 encourage emigration, the U. S,
government should establish line of forts from
Missouri to the Pacific, and provide an efficient
naval force in the Pacific. An address was also
adopted, setting forth the positions assumed in the
resolutions and concluding with strong protest
against yielding one iota of our claim to Oregon,
and against the possession by Graa, R.itain a,.y
part OF The North East Coast OF the Pacific. This
was signed by Col. Johnson aud 96 others we
understand the matter, this convention asserts an
entire and exclusive control Of the Northern hall
of this continent by the U. s., based on the doc
trine of Mr.. Munroe in 1929 ",hal the American
continents were not lhencelorth TO be considered
subjects for future colonization by any foreign
power"
This embraces questions Of great importance
Have we rigid to that immense territory is
question which Great Britain will warmly con
test. If we have the right, is the extension of oui
government over so vast an area, and embracing
SO varied interests, expodent? or, would it not b,
wise to colonize Oregon from the u S. and ac
knowledge il an independent state All ,hes,
grave questions naturally suggest themselves, ant
still there is anolher-How will The occupation o
Oregon, and its addition TO the Union, affect slape
ry? The protection Of the slave interest was on

are in the dark as 10 what was done on this point

Extract from the official proceedings Of The Loco
foco State Convention, holden at Montpelier,
June II, lS4l
"Mr. Farr from the committee on resolutions,
introduced the following:"
Extract
" Resotued, That the true principle Of the fed.
era government is, to confne its action to objects
specifically enumerated ia the Constitution, LEA
WING INDUSTRY TO REGULATE ITSELF"
"Tho resolutions were separately aud ably dis
cussed by Messrs DILLINGHAM; Barber, Spnl-
ding, Farr and others and unanimously adopted"
Such it seems were the sentiments of Mr.. Dill
lingham in ls4l such surely they are now, for
he it remembered that by restricting Congress to
Revenue Tariff merely, Industry is left literal
ly "to regulote ITSELF" As the revenue derived
from imports must go up or down with oil the
mutations occosioned by an enlargement or dim
mutton of national expenditures. by variations in
the amount and value of Imports and by the in
crease or decrease Of sales Of the Public Lands
it is evident tho system can have regularity or
stability, and upon it the people place no reIi
ance. Friends of Protection judge ye whether
an effort to defeat the election of Mr. Dillingham;
is not worth making.

Baptism of Bells. We learn from the Canada
papers that the bel OF the Parish church in Mon
trea, were cousecrated on The 20 of June last.
1t is stated that there were present thirteen god
fathers and godmoIhers. The bells were dressed
in velvet and lowered gold cloth. These dresses
cost $4,000 !! Music IRON the opera, and an APP
propriate sermon concluded the ceremony.
The custom OF bapzng bells, came into use in
the 10Th century, and still prevails in Catholic
countries. Il originated in the belief that the
ringing of bells Illus consecrated protected the
neghborhood during thunder storm, and had
power Ia drive away evil splrlls upon all occa-
sons The tolling OF bells AT funerals originated
iii This same supersnon-.4n SiGrery Standard.
From this superstition money is made. We
saw these bells, few days after the baptism
they still bore their costly dresses, but seemed TO
pay pretty good per cent Any person was at
liberty 10 ring them BY paying for ii, and there
were mullitudes who ayued themselves OF the
privilege.

How the LOcotocOs help The cOo'-growerS, Every
body knows that the ocoloco electioneere,s have
been busy as bees in decIalming against IT. Tar.
III, affirming that gave no Protection aud would
do no good. How did this work? We are told
that in one OF our largest wool.growing towns,
land strongly locofoco, too,) this clamor of The To-
cos induced most Of the wooI.growers TO believe
that there could be no advance on wool, and they
therefore sold their stock early in the season at
% cents, while recently their more wary neigh.
bors have been offered 81 cents for wool Of no
better quality. The result OF locofoco clamors in
one town then has been-a loss Of 6 cents pound
on The farmers rooOl. o, what friendship for the
woo. growers.

FRUITS OF WING AND LOCOFOCO POL
ICY-WHICH is THE BRITISH PARTY?


In the slang OF The locoioco editors, the term
British has not unfrequenuy been applied to the
Wing party, just as though Wing principles and
Wing policy are most favorable to British inter.
ests. We of course utterly deny the justice of
the epithet in its application 10 the Wings, either
of ancient or mordern times and shall deny it.,
so long as it is true that the Wings of old achiev-
ed our Independence, and the Wings Of the pres
ent day aim to preserve and psrpeuate that indie
pendence, by carrying out the principles and poll
cy of the fathers of the Republic. II we were to
seek for any party which is entitled TO this epnhet,
we npprehend it would most likely be found in
that, whose leaders practically deny that our own
government was instituted for the benefit of the
people--one OF whose prophets, indeed, denies
that the people are capable of self government
whose presses have for the las, two years reproach-
ed them as weak and miserable tools, incapable of
wilhsanding The parades of log.cabins and hard
cider barreIs-and whose policy is more favorable
10 British interests than 10 our own. But we dc
not believe il just to involve The whole locofoco
party in the charge of being thus unpatrolic and
fahhess to their own and their country's interests
Far from that: we have faith in the patriotism
q the people. We doubt not that the masses Of
all parties stand on common level all lovers Of
their country, and all equally anxious for its pros
perity and glory ye iii is unquestonably true thai
mullitudes are deceived and mised, by mistaken
or iai'hless leaders Mul,itudes, thus deceived OF
misled, are at this moment essentially promoting
British Interests, by supporting party which il
utterly hostile to Protective Tariff. To illustrate
this fact, we give the following article from Brit
ish paper of the 10Th uIt. IL is statement of ex

TllE THIRD DISTRICT.

The Vergennes VermoDter--an odd sort of a
newspaper, owned and edited by two gentlemen,
one of whom processes to be locofoco and the
other Whig-has dominated Mr. SIade as an
independent Wing candidate in the third Con-
gressiona district, in opposition to Mr.. Marsh
This game of division is dangerous one-inva-
riably injurious to the candidates who uffer their
friends TO play it, and usually advantageous only
10 the common enemy. IN cases even where
there are strong grounds on which to palliae or
justify divisions, the results commonly such as
we have just limited. But this, we apprehend, is
far from being such case. Messrs. Marsh and
Sade gre both men Of high character--in point
Of talents, neither can hive any great advantage
over the oiher-and their principles are identical (;
no material good therefore, ito be gained by
the people in the election Of either over the 9th
er, granting that one or The other must ultimately
succeed. But ipiH either succeed? We fear not,
if the Wings divide aud prevent an election on
, the first run. Such division will give courage,
hope and strength to the locofocos; will discour
age The Wings; will embro the personal friends
Of Messrs Marsh and Slade ; and the final result
may be the election of new Wing candidate or
of the nominee of the ocolocos. The latter al
tentative is quite as probable as either, 1t seems
10 us that the Wings of the State interested
in the matter, far enough and deep enough 10
warrant them in urging their brethren in the third
District to present an undivided front, and thus
sure the election of Wing. PROFESSIONALLY the
Vermouter has taken its suicidal course without
the knowledge or consent of Mr.. Sade. His de-
vo,ion to Wing principles has been too long and
TOO strongly proved to permit us to doubt that his
desire is. to have the Wings cordially unite in the
election of Mr.. Marsh

THE Bible in Schools. Some weeks since the
young foreigner, who edits The Burlington Demo
New York did not object 10 the use of the Bible
in the New York common schools but only to the
Protestant version oil it. We learn now, from the
report OF school commissioners, that the Catholics
object TO the common version-that the Jews OBJ
iect 10 any version OF the New Teslament-and OF
course we may add that Prclestanis would probu-
bly, object to the Rouiish version. The result is,
that the Bible has Jeem erciuded from many of the
schouls. "Who enters those schools leaves the
Word OF God behind"

no beneficial protection, and the farmers of YER
mont mny as well give up AT once all idea OF rails

been willing to spend in Vermont, within the last
Two months, more than tlDO millions of dollars in
the purchase OF wool at an average price of 80
cents the pound, when they could import il at
cents, with only duty of five per cen? There

exported where The freight and charges TO the u
