More Spoliation.


The bill to grant the public lands of Oregon
to actual settlers, has passed the Senate II pro-
vides for the donation of 800 acres to each fami-
ly, native or foreign, uhefher naturdlized MOI.
People of the South! You are now, by the
late adjustment, excluded from nearly all the
immense public domain, except upon the condi-
ton that you rcnounce your slave property and
the Institutions you prefer And the lands, thus
wrested from you re gipea not only to North
ern,-but to unnaturalized European emigrants.
The policy Of this Government, of your Gov
eminent, is now to take Your property and give
it to foreigners to prevent you from occupying
it--you, by whose valor, and treasury, and labor
this land was acquired
Your right to share of this land was as
valid and as sacred as to your own homesteads
1t was as much yours by natural, public, or civil
law as any property you own, or any people
own IL has been confscated already in Oregon,
and soon will be in the other Territories and
Stats, where public lands remain.
1t was bad enough to deny you the right of
occupancy, and give that right TO Foreigners
But it is nothing less than confscation, to give
not only the right to buy, but the absolute own
ershp, without buying, to the alien. If this land
were sold according to the system heretofore
existing as to public land, yon would have real
lied your share of the price of your lands il
the proceeds paid into the public treasury for
, the reduction Of your taxes. But now the land
you acquired and owned is confscated and given
to the Northern spoilcr and the fresh imported
yassals of European despots.
Nay, more than this this land is offered as
a bribe to your own people, to remove from
your own States and renounce your institutions.
They may go to the new free-soil States to swell
the population and power Of your plunderers,
And if they will desert the principles of their
fathers and brothers may rise to the honors OF
this Government, and cooperate in further
schemes for your degradation and ruin.
And yet you are told thtre has been no ag-
erosion to which you are not bound to submit.

ment as may be offered him in time to come.
To all those indebted to him at his late establish
ment on 9Th street, he would respectfully mention
that finding il eligible to make the above change

,Y7 The editor of the Union gets along
poorly with his harmony and Cancellation pana-
ceas. His subscribers won't take them. One
of them writes him letter denouncing him as
the Georgey of the South. The Union sup
presses it cut 'sof charity for the writer" Another
is indignant at the rejoicing Of The Union at the
defeat and disgrace of the South. The editor
proposes "a commission of lunacy for this gen.
tleman."
If, after reading his paper so long, the effect
has been to render them objects of charity, or
victims Of lunacy, it was quite time for them to
quit taking it.

ENLARGEMENT OF THE CAPITOL
| n The Committee on Public Buildings Of the
Senate, having been authorized by a resolution of
that body, " to invite plans accompanied by est-
mates for the extension of the Capitol, and to al
low a premium of FIVE hundred dollars for the
plan which may be adopted by the Committees on
Public Buildings of the two Houses Of Congress, !"
delivered to the Secretary Of the Senate on or be-
fore the first day Of December next.
1t is required that these plans and estimates
shall provide for the extension Of the Capitol,
| either by additional wings, to be placed on the
north and south of the present building, or by the
erection of separate and distinct building, within
the enclosure to the ems: of the building.
] The committee do not desire to prescribe any
condition, that may restrain the free exercise of
architectural taste and Judgment, but they would
prefer, that whatever plan may be proposed may
have such reference to and correspondence with
the present building as to preserve the general
symmetry of the entire structure, when complete
Although but one plan can be adopted, the COM
mitee reserve to themselves the right to form such
plan by the adoption of parts Of different plans
submitted, should such be found accessory; in
which event, the committee also reserve to them
selves the right to divide or apporton, according
to their own judgment, the amount ofpremium to
be awarded for the whole, to those whose plans
may in part be adopted, according to the relative
Importance and merit of each part adopted.
