A GOOD NOMINATION.

We learn with pleasure that CYRus Az
DnIcH ESQ, formerly Of Dixon, in this
State, but now Of Minneapolis, has been
nominated for Congress by the Republicans
Of his District In Minnesota. Mr. A. ran
for the same place as the candidate of the
Wing party il 1852, in this District and
but for the Free Soil vote, 20 great Was
his personal popularity, he would have
beaten Wentworth, who was pitted against
him. He was then as now looked upon
as an .eminently reminded and just man,
:withgwhom the interests of his. conatitu-
.ents would be safe. The dissolution Of the
Wing party threw him into the Republi-
can ranks, where he has been q worker Of
much more than ordinary effectiv iveness'A and
seal. Though BY no means IN ultta aor
:fanaticalp antishvery man; he IL 'oweA
grounded ID tho fundamon ontal doctrines Of
his party, and It elected he will never
give his friends reason to regret his want
of: sympathy With their, cause, while he
will never unnecessarily provoke any great
er degree Of sectional hate. A thorough

Original Politica! Position of
Slavery in the United States.

Seventy two years ago this government
was formed. At that time the subject Of
Slavery was regarded by all parts Of the
confederacy in but one lig ght. The 6rst
Congress, held in 1774, declared that,
"God never intended part Of tao human
race to hold property in and have unbound
ed power over others" By the second ar
ticle Of the bond Of federative union, the
slave trade was prohibited. .s, The; original
draft of the Declaration Of Independence
embodied the pre- constitutional feeling Of
our people on this subject in the follow
ing words which: were however, Sin COM
|plxcauce to South Carolina and Gcorgia.

"He, (King George) has 5waged . cruel

The LEcoMPToN CoNvENTIoN.--In another col
umn will be found a sketch Of the proceedings
of the Lecompton County Convention, held on
Saturday. One of the most unblushing acts Of
political rascality that We ever heard of was
openly perpetrated by the Convention. or the
seventy odd delegates, sixty-two decided by
their votes that the vote of the county delega-
ton in the State Convention should be used as
. trading capital to procure the nomination of
Meredith for Congress. The several township
delegations with the exception of Grass VAL
ley, were allowed to select the number of dele
gates to the State Convention to which their
respective townships were entitled. The dele
gates from that township were in favor of both
Weller and Meredith; but the managers Of the
Convention urged in their speeches that II
might be necessary to throw the united vote Of
the county for some other Gubernatorial aspi-
rant, in order to procure votes for Meredith in
return, and the vote of the county was accor.
dinghy put up to the highest bidder.
The Nevada Democrat., 1859-06-15

OREGON PoLIrICs.-The Oregon Legislature
adjourned on the 4th, without eleoting U. S.
Senator in place of Delazon Smith. The Leg
islature was composed of 22 Regular" Demo-
Gratis, 21 "National" Democrats, and Repub-
licans. The Regulars and Nationals held
joint caucus. and after much wire-working and
many ballotings, Smith was nominated, having
received 22 votes, while the 21 votes Of the
Nationals were cast for Grover, the late Rep
resentative from Oregon in Congress. The
Nationals, however, and the Republicans re
fused to 60 into joint Convention. and thus
the election was defeated. The question will
now go before the people at the next election,
and the probability is that Growers friends
will elect majority of the Legislature.
The election for member of Congress takes
place on the 9th inst. The contest is between
Lansing Stout, Lecompton, and David Logan,
Republican. The Nationals are said to be sup
porting Logan, with the understanding that the
Republicans shall assist in returning the friends
Of Grover to the Legislature. Last year the
combined vote of the Nationals and Republi'
cans was some 1900 less than the vote Of the
Regulars; but as many have since become dis
gusted with Lane, who heads the Regulars, the
result this year is regarded as doubtful.

LECoMPoN CANDIDATES FOR GovERNoR.-The
Sacramento Union, of Monday gives an esti-
mate of the probable vote iu the Lecompton
State Convention for Governor, SO far az could
be ascertained. BY this estimate Weller has
81 votes; Latham 70; Nugent 20; Denver %,
and % doubtful. There are still fourteen coun-
ties to be heard from, having an aggregate OF
rs votes. The estimate is probably not far
from correct. Nevada county is put down six
votes for Weller and eight for Latham. They
should have been put down with the doubtful,
as it has been arranged that the vote of the
county shall go to the candidate that will give
the most votes to Meredith for Congress. and
we have not been able to learn that any def
mite trade has yet been made. 1t is pretty GER
tain, however, that Nugent and Denver are out
of the ring, except as compromise candidates,
and that the real contest will be between We'll
Ter and Latham. In fact, 1t has already been
charged that Denver intended to withdraw Us
candidate for Governor. throw his influence
for Weller, and accept in return a nomination
for Congress. A combination between Weller,
Denver aud Scott, with the influence of the
Custom House, would undoubtedly control the
Convention.

AT the Lecompton County Convention, held
recently in Yreka, a delegate offered series
of anti-Lecompton resolutions, which were laid
on the table, upon which several delegates left.
Subsequently, another delegate offered reso-
luton condemning the last Legislature. The
resolution being voted down, a number of 9TH
er delegates left the Convention. On the eve
ming of June 9Th, a mass meeting of the De-
mocracy of the county was held at Yreka, for
the purpose of effecting more thorough or
ganization on the principle Of non-intervention
and popular sovereignty, at which delegates
were elected to the anti-Lecompton State Con-
vention.
The anti-Lecompton Democrats of Trinity

no organization in Trinity; but they are san
guine of carrying the county this year.

of Yolo county have instructed its delegates to

EUROPEAN NEws.-By The overland mail We
have dates from Europe to May 9th.
The position Of the belligerant armies in
Italy were about the same as at previous advi-
ces. The Austrians had not advanced more
than thirty-five miles into Piedmont, and it ap-
pears that the advantage of position which they
had won in the start had been thrown away.
Had the Austrian army made bold push they
might have overrun Piedmont, but by delaying
a few days the French aud Sardnians will have
time to concentrate sufficient force to make
head against the invaders.
The official journal of st. Petersburg has au'
thoritatively denied that any secret treaty ex.
listed between France and Russia Mr.. D'lsrael
bad given assurances to the same effect in Eng
land. The Improvement in funds on the Lon
don Exchange, in consequence of these an
nouncements was only about one-half per cent.
The King of Sardinia had left Turin to take
command of his army, and Louis Napoleon was
to have left Paris on the 18th of May to take
command of the French army in Italy.
On the Sd of May, Louis Napoleon sent q
