OF the triumphant party, then the inquiry would
have been natural and proper. AT present, the best
they can do is to stand still and do nothing
One thing we would advise the wings to recol-
lect-they had better take care and not mix up
their affairs with abolitonism or nativesm, other
wise they will experience still greater defeat in
lsls than they have experienced in 1874 In the
great States OF the West, the accession OF steady
foreigners, from all parts of the world with property,
industry, and character, is properly and justly re-
earded as one Of the greatest of blessings. These
great Western States are now growing into strength
and Importance, and have plenty of room for thou
sands and millions of inhabitants. They will al
ways hail accessions from any part Of the world
Is utterly impossible for any candidate hereafter
to be elected President of the United States with.
out majority of the great Western States, and it
IS utterly impossible for any candidate to get
such majority, if he be connected, directly in
directly, with the proscriptive doctrines that have
been promulgated in this city and few other places
with regard to the naturalization laws.
The true course OF the wings would be to abo-
ish all naturalization laws and go for general law
authorizing all foreigners emgratng TO this ooun-
try, with the positive and avowed intention of ma
king it their permanent residence to enjoy all the
rights OF citizenship from the moment of their
landing This is the great principle of human lie
berty-this was the great principle of the Declara-
ton OF Independence-this is the great principle of
the God of Nature-this is the only true principle
that will stand the test of time All naturalization
laws heretofore in existence are only remnants of
the fueda and barbarous customs of Europe. Let
us have not the slightest sembage OF vassalage in
this land of freedom and free institutions.
A HARD WINTER-It is prophesled in various
quarters that the approaching winter will be very
severe-that much suffering will exist amongst the
poor Of the Atlantic cities. Whether these pre-
dlctiOns be accurate not, 1t well for all be-
nevoent persons TO give the matter a thought, and
in time make suitable provision for the relief OF
their suffering fellow beings. 1t is indeed melan-
choly fact that in our large Atlantic cities, great
deal of suffering and destitution are experienced
by the poor. In the aggregate, there is no country
under heaven so rich so prosperous, and SO happy,
this favored land, but in our large cities are
not without numberless cases Of extreme poverty
and physical dlstress-isoated to be sure, and not
in such masses, and presenting such broad distinc-
tive features as in Europe, but still heartrending
and painful in the highest degree. Let the bene-
VIOLENT think Of this matter in time.
ceived very amusing article, describing the trou-
bles in the inside of the Custom House, and also
outside Of it, with sketches Of conversations, cliques
hopes, fears, and the value Of oysters. 1t ap
pears that there are five hundred democratic ap-
pcants for offices, and only about one hundred
and fifty wings yet remaining to be removed. This
pressure from without is prodigious. The Collec-
tor and many Of his chief officers have yet to be
passed upon by the Senate, and they hardly know
which way to look or to turn-whether to talk Ty-
ler, Polk, Calhoun, or any other "shibboleth."
That CARRIAGE We learn from Concord, H.,
that the splendid coach ordered to be built in time
to convey Mr.. Clay, as President elect, over the
mountains to Washington will be finished immedi-
ately. 1t was feared when it was known that Mr.
Polk was elected that this business in common with
all other branches of trade would be stopped; but
Mr.. Roorback has stepped forward and cnsaecd
the coach for tour "the country through" and
can, therefore, safely say that the nation is safe
No panic.
ELEGANT TURN oUTs.-During the last few days
Broadway has been very much astonished by the
appearance Of very elegant carriage establish
ments, with drivers and footmen in livery, and all
the other gaudy appointments that one might see
in Hyde Park on beautiful afternoon. The owner
OF one Of these establishments has adopted the
scarlet livery, which is exclusively royal, and in
Europe can be worn only in the service of persons
Of the blood-royal. But here every one is sover-
eign in his own right, whether he sprung from
tailor or laundress, and all are therefore free to
adopt any color they please for their livery.

received from the Governor. After officially con-
graduating the people upon the election of Polk,
he dips into the tariff to the following depth:--
