Editor of the Crisis, agtate, agitate,

old Union, let us have God and Natures
Union! Let US follow the bright sparkling
waters of the Ohio, down TO the father of
waters, down to the ocean of Peace The

claims US as her own--let us acknowledge
her claim. Is this disoyalty9-is this un-
patriotic! If so. | will divide the honor

federacy." | have paid tribute long enough
to the looms and spindles of the East-I
wish no longer to be the political pack mule
of New England. They have taught me
that when the burden has become intolerable,
| have right to throw it off. They invent
ed the word secede, and they have incucated
the doctrine that an oppressed people are
justified in separating from their oppressors
-"peaceably if they can, forcibly if they
must"
"Of course, dear Crisis, my proposition is
predica,ed on the fact that the original Union
is dissolved No man is fool or fanatic
enough to doubt that. Not even the Arcadian
Nightingale of the White House, can any
longer sing the song Of the Union and the
Constitution" The master minds of this
nation, who have determined to rule or ruin
it, have presented the alternative to the South
of subjugation or miscegena,ion! What, a
freeborn American people be subjugated or
descend to the lowest depths of human
degradation by minglng the blood of their
daughters with that of their slaves?
"1he Union is dissolved. From the mo-
ment the confscation laws, the proclamation

RUssIA.-Russia is slowly assimilating It's
Hitherto, if Russian lady of property mar
ried foreigner, she was forced to sell what
ever land she possessed, and the consent of
the Emperor was always required to legaze
the marriage. If foreigner wished to be'
come naturalized, he was obliged to pay three
years taxes in advance-a regulation which
almost prohibited foreigners from taking out
letters of naturalization. An Imperial de
cree has just been issued, reforming the law
in these particulars. Foreigners may be-
come Russian subjects without paying so
heavy fine, aud ladies may marry foreign
ers without having to obtain the sanction of
the Emperor, and without being compelled
to sell their lands.

ORGANIzE.-We again most earnestly call
upon our Democratic friends to organize
promptly and thoroughly. There is reason
to fear that they do not appreciate the
importance of the Presidential election. AS
we understand it, everything they have and
all they hope for is involved in the issue. If
we are beaten, no man is worth a dollar, or
has a particle of personal liberty, beyond
what military despotism may dole out to
him. Indifference in such a contest is crimi'
nal. Some of our friends understand it, and
are nobly trying to save themselves and
their country. But it will be in vain, with
out the cooperation Of every man whose
convictions correspond with ours. Every
Democrat has duty to perform which he
cannot neglect without detriment to his
country. United, harmonious and vigorous
action is required; and with such action we
can carry the State. Organize, Democrats,
and let no another Abolition victory blacken
and disgrace the escutcheon of your Safe.
Show to your fellow democrats of the Allan
tic States that California is "loyal," not to
an imbece and prohigate Administration,
but to the Constitution and the Union.
