LIE CLAIRE ITE MS.

REroRrED BY MASTER Clinton PARKnUssr
RUsoH AT LIZ CLAIRE-The Republicans Of
this community convened on Thursday
evening TO listen TO an address made by
Rusch, their candida for Lieut.. Governor
of Iowa. Mr.. c. C. Applegate was appoint
ed chairman. and a certain Casper Lawton
to attend to refractory Democratic boys.
| who were inclined to hiss occasion ally. On
what subject Rusch spoke it would be hard
to tell His whole aim and object seemed
to be to make his audience laugh, which he
managed to do once in a while. To this
end, he passed of the time in relating vul-
gar "ioIes," as he called them, and which
he very inaptly applied to the national par
ty. His articulation was Of the worst pos
sible kind and the whole tenor of his speech
was such as to damage his party. Many
Republicans in this precinct will vote
against him, and many who intend to vote
tol him, secretly wish him back on his farm,
tending to his "sheep and pigs" His mind
is about as slim as his body, and his body is
so slim that if he stood on the line of q
hitchirg post, one could not see him. The
Democratic cause would be benefited if the
Republicans would send out a few more
such men.

Vote the Ticket J

We cannot too earnestly urge upon
Democrats the necessity Of cheerful
ly throwing themselves with all OF
their energy, into the support OF our
ticket. Let there be harmony and
action. Herein has been The true
secret of The grea. and continued
success of our party. 1t is the shield
of our safety. 1t may be that few
of our friends differ with Gov. Harris
on one or two questions Of minor
policy, but now the choice is between
him and Know Nothing. or an OPP
positionist, which amounts to the
same thing. What Democrat will
hesitate when be is called upon TO
make this choice? Not one! Re
member that a vote withheld from
our noble standard bearer, is half n
vote in favor of the Know Nothing
candidate!

The Bolts Party.

4 portion of the late American
party, headed by j. Minor Bolts,
have gone through the feat ofplaciDg
their heels where their heads used to
be. They, supporting oul naturalized
citizens to be destitute OF common
sense, void Of the fidelity usually
found among men, and without
N mory Of the past, now pretend to
be the special advocates of the IN
alienable rights and universal prlyi-
leges of every man born out-side
of tie United States OF America.
Had Sam been successful, this hyp-
ocritiGal cant about the rights Of
ADO ted citizens would never have
been uttered. A cotemporary, to
test the sincerity Of these pretended
friends of the adopted citizens, pro-
poses to them the following interroga-
tories:
l. Are you in favor Of requiring
tUenty-one years residence in thi,
country before admitting Il person
born in a foreign country to natural
zalion?
2. Are you much afraid of The
Pope?
3 What is your present opinion
Of foreign paupers and criminals?
4. Have You seen Sam lately?
! >. Do You think foreigners CO..
ever be made to understand Tia
genius Of our Government?
6. Do you think TIE MODS in Balti

subject of Prussia, lying under q le-
gal obligation in that country to per-
form certain amount Of military
duty, leaves his native land, and,
without performing that duty or OBJ
tanning certificate of emigration,
comes TO the United States and is
naturalizec, and afterwards, for any
purpose whatever, goes back to Prus-
STA, it is not competent for the Uni
ted States to protect him from the
operation Of the Prussian Law. The
case my be one of great hardship,
especially if the omission to pro.
cure the certificate arose from in
advertance or ignorance; but this
fact, though just ground for sym
pathy, does not alter the case as one
Of international law.
While l admit the right of all Gov
iernmeuts to punish crimes against
their laws, | cannot assent to the
doctrine that a foreigner. who has,
undar the solemn sanction of his

up arms against the country of bis

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
July 9. 1859.


GENTLEMEN: Your note Of this
date was banded to me few minutes
since, and as | am compelled to
leave The city upon the next train to
fillmyappointmentsin East Tennessee,
| hasten to answer without being
able to give tae subject that consid-
Grafton and thorough examination
which its importance demands.
! hold It to be undeniahly true,
however. that under our Constitution
and laws, the rights to protection and
the duties Of the American citizen
whether native or natWalized are
precisely the same.
When the foreigner sewers the
ties which bound him to other gov
ernments and takes the oath of al
legiance to the Government of the
United Safes. he takes upon himself
all the obligations, responsibilities and
duties Of citizenship, thereby unques.
tionably entities himself to The rights
and priviIeges of a citizen. Amongst
the most important of these, may
be mentioned the right to demand
of bis Government the protection Of
life, liberty and property, at home and
abroad, and the Government is bound
by every consideration of self-respeet,
good faith and duty to extend that
protection. This general rule, how
ever, is not without exception, for if
the native or naturalized American
citizen has committed crime or vio-
lated the penal laws of foreign
he would beanswerable to
that government at any time when
within its jurisdiction.
The doctrine of perpetual allegi-
ance TO the land of nativity, as
contended for by most governments
of the old world, being inconsistent
with the natural rights of man, can
not meet the approlaiiun of the
Of the United States.
Many instances of the resistance Of
this doctrine by our government in
its early history might be cited if ]
had time far full investigation.
The position of this government
under the Pierce administration 10
1868, is distinctly stated BY Mr. Sec
rotary Marcy in his note to the Aus.
trian Minister as follows:
whenever, by the the operation
of the law of nations, an individual
becomes clothed with our national
character, be he a native or natural
lied citizen, an exile driven from
bis early home by political oppres-
sion, or an emigrant enticed from it
by the hopes of better fortune for
himself and posterity, be can claim
the protection Of this Government.
and it may respond to that claim
being obliged to explain its
conduct to any foreign power, for it
is its duty TO MAKE ITS NATIONALITY
RESPECTED BY OTHER NATIONS, AND RES
pECTABLE IN EVERY QUARTER OF THE
Again Mr.. Marcy said:
international law looks only to
the national character in determin-
ing what country has the right TO
protect. If aperson goes from this
country abroad, with the natl snality
Of the United States, this law enjoins
upon other nations to respect him, in
regard to protection, as an american
't'sen. 1t comedies to every coun.
