COMMODORE STOCKTON AND TIE KNOW
ROcHINGS

VO@AVOOnE SiUGAEOH AND IKE KNOW
ROfHIHGS.
Commodore Stockton, who has an eye 10 the
Presidency, has recently come out with the
following letter in favor of the Know Moth
ings:
PRINCETON, Dec. G, 1884
A. MoLANE RoBDINErr, ESQ,
Wilmington Delaware:
Dear Sir: 1 have received your letter of
November %, and thank you for the senti-
ments Of friendly CONNIE ndation which it ex-
presses.
Though Withdrawn from public life, never.
| theless l ana not insensible to emotions of
qualification whom find my principles or my
past conduct the subject of jast and generous
appreciation. Yet it is with unfeigned reluc
lance thai comply with the dury of answer
ing your letter, lest it shout be construed
into desire on my part to re-appear on the
political arena. l have no such desire The
| turbulence of political strife has no charms
| Tor me; my tastes, iEciinatioRs and happiness
lead me to prefer the tranquility of private
| life
But as l approved of the principles of the
American party when in its infancy, 1 am uu
| willing that il should be believed now. when
| it exists in the yigor Of manhood that have
| become derelict to those principles, or that
can refuse On any proper occasion to avow m
Golf to be an American Democrat, or shrink
| from the maternal recognition Of those who
espouse my principles, no matter under what
designation they have formerly acted. No,
sir, the history of our country, since first
approved your principles, has only strengthen
ed and confirmed the opinions which enter
tanned at the period to which You refer.
To your first interrogatory, therefore, I an
swer and say am in favor of confning all
executive and administrative functions of Office
to American born.
In relation to your second interrogatory, /
answer that am in favor of "an extension of
the period Of residence previous to naturaliza-
ton to at least twenty one years, or total re-
peal of the naturalization laws, as in the wis
dom Of the people may seem ft.''
Deragogues should no longer be permitted
to manufacture hordes Of freshly imported
aliens into voters to nullify the voice Of Amer
leans in the ballot box. The corrupt rivalship
Of parties for the purchase Of foreign born
voters must cease. It never will cease, how
ever, unil the swarms of emigrants who month
~ land on our shores shall cease to be offered
in tho political market 10 the highest bidder
In avowing the principle that Americans
alone should rule Americs," do not under
stand you to approve the Acknowledgement of
the foreign born who already possess the right
Of voting. The larger proportion of our adopt
ed fellOw-citizens, ut least the most intelligent
among them, ] believe are perfectly satisfied

WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP,

Where the Responsibility now Rests -
Never before so early in session mas the Com
mittee Of Ways and Means progressed go far
with the work before them, as at this time.
Yesterday, they duly reported to the House
the civil AMI diplomatic appropriation bill, al
event which, if We are not greatly mistaken,
never took place before as early as the 18th of
December. That made the fourth genera al ap-
preparation bill already committed to the
Committee Of the Whole on the state of the
Union.
The question now is, will the House second
this so praisewortby despatch Of business on
The committees part? Or, will they talk poll
ties?
1t viii be we'll for the country to note who
occupies the time of Congress in the delivery
Of political speeches, with the civil and diplo.
matte appropriation bill formally before them
awaiting, with other general appropriation
bills, their action. There can be no poss BILE
shadow Of excuse for putting off the final pas
sage OF The great bill Of the session until its
waning hours. Allowing even two weeks for
talking politics, and nothing but politics over
II before closing the debate in hour speeches.
and II can be easily disposed of in three weeks
from the time it may be taken up, which may
be done as early as Thursday next.
Again, We urge the country to scan the
record well, and note who may OCCUPY the
time Of Congress at the present session, in talk
ing politics.
/ he Carver Grant" at the Falls Of st.
Anthony.-This claim is for about one hun.
dred miles square, on the east side of the
MI sis'ipp., between the Falls of St. Anthony
and Lake Pepin. AS inquiries are often made
N regard to its validity, we have thought it
10 be Of sufficient general interest to ascertain
and give public the facts in regard to it.
Captain Jonathan Carver was an officer in
the British service, in the war which was ter.
minated by ths treaty concluded at Paris in
1863. 1t was claimed that Carver made a
purchase ot this extensive tract Of country, In
tie year l767, Of two chiefs Of the Nadovissie
tribe of Indians.
by the PROCLAMATION of October Z, 1853, by
the kin2 OF Great Britain, the purchase of
lands from the Indians by individuals was
distinctly prohibited.
The correct policy which dictated that proc.
iamation has been invariably adhered to BY
the United States. The question, as one Of
constitutional law, came before the Supreme
Court Of the United States IN the year 1923
in the case of johnson and Graham's lessee

SPIRIT OF The MORNING PRESS

The inteI!&geneer agrees with the Newark
Adverttssr in the belief that the proper rem
edy for the existing pressure is to decrease
importations. The editor also rubs his hands
over the prospect of tbrashing the Democracy
in Virginia next spring.
The Union comments to-day, for the most
part, on Know Nothingism, which it holds to
be phase OF fanaticism The editor also
argues that it is controlled, for the most part,
ny Abolition influences, quoting the following
from the Maine Temperance Journal to prove
the fact, Wig:
The anti-sIavery clement has controlled
the Inachlnery of this order in every non.
f!avehclding State in the Union, and large
number of snti-N sbraska mon will take thci
seas in the next Congress, who, but for this
order, could not have been elected. If the
conductors of the Tribune do not know this
fact they are know nothings' in reality. II
they will take time to inform themselves with
regard to election returns in Maine Michigan,
Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Illinois, and
wisconsin, to say nothing Of Massachusetts
and New York, they will see, unless they are
as blind as bats, that the 'pro-stavery tOire-
a0orksrS' do not control this new party

Pate of the Arctic.


Our Geographic dispatches OF yesterday MORN
ing revealed the melancholy fate of the Arctic.
For many days the heart of the whole nation
mas beat with deep and ANXIOUS solicitude and
suspense for the fate of this vessel and now that
that suspense and solictude have been relieved,
a deeper has succeeded them. The
Arctic is lost has, the lightning's wing,
spread thro' the land and filled nation in gloom
and mourning. ltis hard to conceive of II sad
der and more awful occurrence than this. which,
almost in the twinkliug of an eye, consigned four
hundred human beings to n grave beneath the
hillows. What a scene of confusion, terror and
despair must have heen produced no mind
can conceive. The COLLISION the shock, the
crash the shreks, the launching and crowding
of boats,-then tive filing, the settling and
sinking of the yesscl-the last dying wall of des-
pair-all came in an inconoeivahly short space Of
time, and all WIS over. \ gallant steamer that
a moment age went bounding along like u thing
of life," now lies in ruins the oceans bed =
-Four hundredhuman beings, probably many more
who were just happy and joyous IN the confident
expectation of soon reaching their wished for
destinations and thinking not of danger, sleep
their last sleep in the cold embrace of the ocean.
The hearts Of many by this sad event have beon
filed with untold woe and anguish With anNi-
and joyful anticipations they were looking
forward TO the arrival ri lowed ones, but instead
nf their arrival, there came the sad news of their
loss and those joyful antcpations eSchan
ged for unuterabo sadness and sorrow.
We turn from this melancholy subject, and ex-
press the hope, deep from our hearts that ii may

There is good deal said ofa new process
