Stealing Our Thunder.

FoREIGN PAUPERs AND CRIxINALs-Hon. John
w. Thompson, one of the Representatives from
Tippah has introduced bill into the lower branch
of the Mississippi Legislature to prevent the i'm
portation Of foreign paupers and criminals This
looks as II the Democracy we're edging on to the
American platform. --Aemphis Eagle.
y Sag Nichtism is, chameleon-like, assuming
in the North the color of Black Republicanism
in the South of disunionism, and in other por-
tons of the country it assumes to be in favor
Of the great reform measures which constitute
the basis of Americanism. Its presses and
orators increasingly denounce the American
party, heaping upon it the lowest abuse and
the vilest billingsgate; yet in South Carolina a
Sag Nicht Legislature has enacted law re-
quiring naturalized foreigners to reside two
years in the State as citizens of the United
States, before exercising the elective franchise.
Now, the Sag Nicht Legislature of Mississippi
is about enacting law " to prohibit the i'm
portation of foreign paupers and criminals ~
These facts demonstrate the correctness of the
principles Of the American party, and show the
necessity of some further legislation by Con-
gress to curb and restrain the influence Of the
alien population. While the Sag Nicht presses
in one section war upon the American reforrna-
ton, the Sag Nicht Legislature are advocating
its principles; thus not only showing their
utter destitution of principle, but furnishing
conclusive evidence Of the justice Of American
measures

Hon. III. w. Davis.

The speech of Mr. Davis, delivered yester-
day in the House Of Representatives ON the
Kansas contested election, is regarded as the
most brilliant and profound speech delivered
during the present session. He was listened
to with marked attention by all parties, and
when completed, the Members crowded around
congratulating him.
lie contended that the House had no author
ity to act upon the supposition that it could
collateralE inquire into the validity Of the
lays passed by the Legislature OF Kansas,
and sustained this point with force, power and
logical reasoning.

Mr.. Whitney,s RjlI.

Hon. Thos. Whitney, of New York, intro
duced a bill into the House of Representatives
yesterday, " to make uniform the laws of natu-
ralization." Messrs. Whitney, Adams and Smith
deserve the thanks of the American party for
their promptitude in thus thrusting before the
House and the country the American issues
We expect much from the efforts Of these two
sound and true Americans, and hope they will
continue to urge these measures upon the con-
sideration Of the House.

for want OF time was not consutsd, and there was
ono vacancy In the Board.
As regards political meetings, the writer Knows
Of but one with few refreshments TO the dirtin-
guished speakers in the male department, unless
we no back TO 1s40. when both political parties
held their meetings in the female department OF
the town school without question from the Corpo-s
ration. There was a public lecture delivered In
the male school room last November, which Mr. Il.
has overlooked in his inquiry; and while he is ma
king inquiries about town property, l would re
specially suggest why several associations and
societies meet in the Council chamber and use coal
and gas at the expense Of the town.
The Antfs had engaged Forrest Hail. the only
public room in the tewn, for the night preceding
the election, with the cunning which nature has
kindly given to the weaker animals, to make an at
tack in which there would be no opportunity to
repel; and under these circumstances the guar
dams kindly consented that homogeneous party
should head them by holding meeting the same
night In the school-room. And had the heteroge-
nsous party have applied to them under similar
circumstances, have no doubt the same leave
would have been granted. ~
The room was carefully sanded to prevent tobac.
co stains, and thoroughly swept and busted Mon.
~dsy morning, and, had Ars. r. felt proper inter,
est in the school, have no doubt she need not
have lost more than half day, as presume the
American party are not more filthy than the
Wings and Democrats OF 1870.
As 1t was, the male school was not closed, and
the female schookroorn might have been used, an.
If q few tobacco stains, which got through th
sand, the securing might have been put of unit
Saturday, and the room made much cleaner thai
it was found, which was done at the expense Of th
party. m t
