marty does and will not a blind unreasonlng, un-
Welding Conservatism which resists all change
merely because i, is change keeping Its eyes eter'
nslly fixed on the Past, may exist indeed In a he
public. but only as stumbling block, which the
spirit of Progress and Reform is continually over
stepping To be Conserva alive TO any purpose

can we be bene6centy Conservative thus only can
we in.erposc an efectual barrier TO the headong
spirit which raves for the overthrow OF institutions,
the extension OF boundaries, and for the tearing
down and destruction of whatever does not minister
TO its own depraved and reckless ambition
After some talk about the Oregon whirlwnd,
Anti Rent &c, the Express concludes:
"Our course Is clear Resist war In the mani tones

The Tribune never resisted war more earnestly
than doring the very last week, as its columns WIN
testify We have just yielded several OF 'hern 10
most able article from the last North American he
view, showing that we have right 10 the 'eA0Ie
of Oregon and that to go to war that question
would be the extreme of madness and dePraVi'y'
Nothing 20 pointed and orcible on the sioe oi

Our Washington letter OF yesterday our OWN 'e
marks and frequent selections uniformly incue"'e
abhorrence and detestation of ar, and esPeclay o
War for Oregon. Yet we do not see lit to denounce
tho Goveru,oeut of our Country for erery h7ng II
ov zee fit TO do in vindication of our unquestioned
r;,bts in Oregon. Believing that the giving Notice
10 terminate the great Joint Occupancy Is not oei'
ligercnt end can hardly of itself prove an offensive
measure and that tie extension oil our jurisdiction
and ia ws over our omn People in Oregon is IN per-
fec, accordance with existing Treaties, we make no
ooposition TO these measures. II our Government
should undertake TO establish eeclusire jurlsdlc'
lion over Oregon. that would be War measure,
and we should oppose it to the utmost. From
whose position can such resistance be offered more
efiectually-frorn ours or that OF the Express
IxptArA.-We hope the Wing nominations OF
JOSEPH G. MARSHALL for Governor and GoDLoVE
5. ORrH for Lieut. Governor are omens OF a brighter
day for Indiana They are among the very abIest
men and mos, effective popular speakers in the
State. which we presume they will canvass tho
roughly. Marshall has been State Elector IN the
la ., two Presidential contests, and canvassed with
signal ability Says an Indiana friend in private
letter. He is when aroused or excited as eloquent
and thrilling as Clay binself and as witherngly Sc
we're as McDuffe.' He was the Wing candidate
for U. S. Senator last Winter, and would have been
elected but for the casting vote OF 1t Gov Bright
in the Senate whereby the Senate refused TO go into
an electon and threw the choice over TO this year,
when Mr. Marshall was again the Wing candidate
bat beaten by Bright himset-or rather by the Lo-
co. F. oco majority Of TO- with which the new Elec'
ton had suppan,ed the Wbis majority OF last y" In
ter The Wings hope that Gov. Whilcomb and he
viii canvass together.
GoDLovE S. ORTH is young man, now Senator
from Tippecanoc Co. having been elected in ls4J
over Hon H. w. Ellsworth, now Minister 10 Swe'
den though the County at the same time gave Whit
comb 100 majority over Bigger He Is sound
,hiaker and forcible speaker alike in Yankee and
Da,ch, being of Pennsylvania German extraction,
He is now President of the Senate, and oil course
acting Il. Governor. We trust he will be acting
in the same capacity next Winter.
