Negroes and Cinnamon in OREGON.

The constitution under which Orcron is
asking admission to the Union prohibits
free negroes from entering its territory. It
also contains a clause denying citizenship
to natives of China The prohibition in
rospect'to persons of African descent was
made the ground Of animadvcrsion and OBJ
lection in the debate which occurred on the
Oregon bill III the Senate last Wednesday.
MIR. Seward, who was the first to call at
tcnton to it, expressed his disapproval but
stated that he would nevertheless feel il
his duty to vote for the admission. But
Messrs. Fessenden, ,Trumbull, Wade, VIII
son and Hale expressed their determined
opposition to its passage
The idea of excluding free colored pcrs
sons is not peculiar to Oregon. 1t has pre-
vailed in the slave States, and also in free
States bordering upon them But in Ore
gon it wouid. seem to lack the excuse which
IN Illinois and Ohio has been alleged in it's
favor
The other question is, however, new
Unlike free negroes, Cinnamon arc unable
to claim rights as citizens of other States.
and would seem to be justly subject to any
regulation which the people of Oregon may
see fit to ordaiu, provided that no treaty
stipulation be infringed. There is dcep-
seated apprehension in the minds of our
'countrymen on the Pacific side respecting
Chinese immigration. Already have its iii
effects been gricvously felt in California;
The whole population is vicious, dishonest
and corrupt to a degree which we find it
hard even to imagine. The Chinese en-
pirc contains one-thrd of the human race.
Recent movements have shown that count
less thousands of it's inhabitants desire 10
quit the crowded land of their birth fortho
American Continent; and for years their
emigration to our Pacific Coast has been
large. California is already filed to an un
welcome extent by Chinese, who constitute
a population of the very worst description.
Incapable of assimilation, they remain
separate and hated class, excrting an inHu
encc not only injurious but destructive
There is nothing improbable in the suppo
stlon that, within twenty years, if their
influx be not checked they will constitute
majority both in California and Oregon.
y is not at all surprising, then, that our
Pacific States should cndcavor to protect
themselves from so tremendous an evil. Not
only should California ard Oregon withhold
citizenship from natives of China, but reg
nlate. as the exigencics of the case may re-

GETTING OUT OF A DUEL.-Morris r.
Reagan, State officer of Texas, according
to his card published in the Austin papers
last month, armed himself with a revolver,
and insulted George W. Paschall, editor of
the Austin LntRIigcacer, in the street, the
latter being at the time unarmed Pasch-
all sent challenge Reagan declined to
fight duel, because it would deprive him
of his office, according to the constitution,
but invited Paschall to meet him at the
post-otiicc, during business hours, armed
with navy revolver. Paschall refused,
on the ground that rccontrc at such a
place, at the hour named, might place in
jeopardy the lives, not only of disintcrestcd
men but also of women and. children. He
offered, however, to meet Mr.. Reagan on
the race track, at sunrise, prepared topitch

SYMPATHY FOR CRIMINALs-Th escape of
ono notoriously guilty criminal from the lust
punishment which hehas incurred. does more
to abatc the reverence for law and the fear of
its penalties, and to invite the evil DISPOSED
tothe commission Of crime, than all the vi
cious companonship and bad morals to the
contact with which they are exposed We
do not believe in the practice of any cruelty
or the exercise of any undue severity in the
treatment of criminals, but we do believe that
the penalties of the law should be sure and
speedy The greater degree of certainty of
punishment there is attending the commits

Earthquake in Mexfco.

An earthquake occurred in Mexico on the 7tb
OF June, and is known to have extended over
district of 600 miles. The damage done by it is
estimated at from fve. to seven millions of dol
lars A large number of lives were lost and a
great number of cities almost demolished. The
Alta says:
Monsieur Derhec, formerly editor of the Echo
du Peeifque, of this city, returned By the Golden
Gate. He was in the city of Mexico at the time
OF the earthquake, and describes il as being in
expressibly terrible. It's duration was over three
minutes, during which time the buildings sway
ed to and fro, ae he expressed it, 9 like ship
off Cape Horn in gale of Wind He saws that
every building in the city suffered. the walls
cracked or thrown down, and even trees In the
Alameda being broken off and their tops thrown
npon the ground The people who were within
doors at the first alarm, endeayored to reach
the street. but the motion from side to side was
SO great that they staggered from wall to wall

great hast day bad come. Streams and lets of
water were forced from issares in the earth by
its writings, and bridges, with people upon
them. disappeared in the waters beneath Never
before had such terrible visitation been ex-
perienced in the city. The loss of life must be
very great, and the damage to property is coun-
ted by millions. Poor Mexico What with re-
volutions, civil strife, bloodshed, poverty and
earthquakes, presents truly a lamentahle con-
