Our ReIatIOns with china.

Upon the subject of our troubles with
China, the city of Boston, perhaps, has as
deep an interest as any other locality in the
Union, in the course which our Government
designs to pursue towards that empire.
There having been many publications, indi,
eating that there was a strong probability
of a general rupture between the two
countries, the Boston Board of Trade"
sent committee to Washington, to obtain
definite information upon the subject. We
cannot see why committe from Boston
should be admitted into State secrets, in
advance of the general public: we think
the procedure was novelty, and quite in
discreet and unsafe as precedent. Such
direct appeals to the Executive, upon great
international questions, involving the grave
issues Of peace and war, we are inclined to
regard as impertinent and improper. In
all cases where the public interest requires
the PRONUNCIATION of the policy intended
by the government in such matters, the
President would, of course, not refuse to
make the disclosure He should do so of
his own arcord. But, il the Boston Board
is entitled to demand so much of the Pres
idenl, why not any county or township
meeting; if upon the subject of our foreign
relations, why not, and for a much better
reason, upon any subject Of domestic con-
cerui In respect TO the subject itself, it
will be seen, from the Committees Report
which we subjoin. that the intentions of the
President are entirely pacific. The latest
advices represent reciprocal feeling on
the part Of China:

We copy the following article from the
last number of the Franklin Rerier:

convention held ia this town on the 9th instant, the
resolution calling on DR.. Thompson TO be candid

Outstanding. OF the action of the convention, and
nomination was not, we believe, announced by the
chairman, and several gentlsmen with whom we
have talked thinks as we do, that resolution was
merely a call on Dr. Thompson to be candidate
for the lower house and not nomination. We
make this statement, because the resolution as
published plices the other American candidates In
the position of running against the regular nominee
of the convention, both of whom are too strong
friends Of the American party to compromise its
interests by appearing in opposition to regularly
nominated candidate"

Each State May place the unnaturdgized
foreigner just landed on our sh9reS, or mug
raise the black nan in her midst to a political
and ciDH equality With her natice-6Orn 10hite
citizens:
DOR Democratic readers are affectionately
invited to swallow and digest this precious
morsel at their earliest convenience. They
must neither hesitaten or gag in the perform
snce of this political duty. The doctrine that
the States may raise the negro and the alien ID
perfect equality with the free white citizens,
is now a part and parcel of that most wonder
fu specimen of mosaic workmanship, known
as the Democratic Platform. Any one who
refuses to sanction and uphold it must expecGto
be branded as an ally OF Abolilionism, an enc
my of the Supreme Court, and an apostate
from the true Democratic faith. We wofdlly
regret that our Locof0cO friends are reduced
TO this dire necessity, but we cannot avert II.
The precious t. xt which heads this article Is
not taken from any journal whose Democracy
can be gainsayed 1t neither enaDates from
any temporisng Buchananites of the North, nor
from any ire-eater from the South. 1t comes
in 40 questionable shape, nor from any ques-
lionabie quarter, but radiates from the columns
of the StGtssnlaB of this city, which Is in the
constant habit Of reading lectures to the Nat
chez Free Trader. the New Orleans Delta, and
all other bogus opponents or genuine Demo-
cracy- Some contemporary charged this faith
tul mirror of Locofocoism with being the Or
gan of Mr.. Breckinrige during the late can
vas, and the editor announced that lie was gra-
titled in being able to state that Mr. Breckin
ridge concurred in his views and endorsed his
expositions of Democratic principles. We are
nov overcome with curiosity to know if our
Vice President and his pro-slavery friends in
Kentucky and all over the South, are ready to
cry out gloria an ercelsis 10 the indicators and
expounders of the doctrine that the negro and
the alien Can be mode the peers Of natlve-born
citizens whenever the mad, wild f4naticsrn of
Abolitlonism wills it, or Locotoco policy re-
quires it Lea Obs Dc Rep.

The st. Louis Republican publishes an
advance copy of Gov. Geary's Message
to the Kansas Legislature with regard to
popular sovereignty. Gov. Geary says
in substance hat when the interests of
the people require a State government,
and the proper steps are taken to establish
it then will be the time, once for all to
decide the grave political questions which
underlie all well regulated common
wealths. He advises the Legislature to
let Slavery alone, and leave it where the
Constitution places it, to forego all legis-
lation in reference to it until the State
Constitution Is farmad Recommends eH
the errors and omissions on the statute
book TO be corrected, denounces the test
oath act, and recommends its repeal, dis
approves the present mode of electing
%jurorsy and recommends their adoption
by lot; insists on voting by ballot, and
suggests a law requiring q residence of
10 days in a district to prevent illegal
voting.
