\ Spacious Showing.

The Dreganlan OF last Tuesday quotes
4 portion Of the clauses of the State Con-
stitutions Of Delaware. Maryland, Virgin
ia, North Carolina. South Carolina, Gcor-
gia aud Tennessee, IN respect to the
elective franchise in those States. re
spectiyely. Il argues. because the terms
=" freeman" and "mon" ARE used. that
negroes were entitled to vote therein.
That is a very aim-y and specious argn-
mcnt. aud VIC cannot hut think the Ore
gnaian IS aware that il is. No informed
man cat be ignorant OF tho fact that. in the
days when the enumerated States framed
and adopted their respective Consiitn-
tious, a negro was not cooetcd MS a citi-
zen. esas rat reckoued as a freeman
nor alluded to NJ Il man, in govern
mental connection. The Constitutions
of the non-slaveholdieg States of the
North. if examined. viii be found to
contain the same set terms in referring to
the suffrage question, yet in some OF those
States negroes are not permitted to vote,
nor are they invested with other privi-
leges or rights Of citizenship. albeit they
are in every other sense Of the term,
really .fteemeH. Aud in the States in
which negroes are given the right 10
vote, the privilege has been granted By
special Acts ofthe State Legislatures.
II the 0regonian's argument is good
for anything, it is to most forcibly demon
strate the inconsistency and falsity of its
own party in the very matter it seeks to
set up against the Southern States. Ii
by frcemen" and men," the people OF
the Slave States meant all negroes not
slaves, as well as the whites, certainly in
the non-slaveholding States the same
terms must have also meant negroes, who
were unqu%estionably free, for they had
not been, nor were they slaves. Agrcea-
bly, to the argument of the Oregonian
therefore-all "freemen" being claimed
as entitled to the right of saffrage-the
States North which have denied and dc
still deny to the negroes this right, clear
ly inhibit them from n constitutions
right; and the States which have given
them the right by Legislative enactment.
must have withheld from them, up to
that time, a right transparently and IN.
deniably theirs. AS all the Northern
States, with a single exception, are now
governed by the Oregonian's party, il

@latiye, the wrong intimated by that pa
per, of Withholding the right of suffrage
from 'freemen"-ergo, negroes-assur
edly rests upon that party. The Orego
MAN cannot escape from this Legitimate
conclusion to its own premises. We mus
then consider that paper as in favor 0
Negro Suffrage, and yet it has at ont
time and another lately, not only dodgeo
but actually repudiated that measure
We should be pleased to ascertain wha
position our cotemporary occupies OIL
that question. 1t asserts one thing, blu
argues another. Won't it be pleased t

IMPORTANT NEWSPAPER CHANGEs.-We re-
ceivel no Eugene City Review during the
week, but we learn from the last Arena, that
the Review, the Arena, and the Washington
Democrat lately printed at Olympia, w.
IT,, are all to be consolidated into one Demo-
cratic journal, to be called the Democratic
Review. 1t will be published at Salem,
every Monday, at So per year. Messrs.
Noltner, Bellinger and Hicks, late of the pa
pers respectively named, join in the %consoli-
dated Journal as publishers and editors.
They promise to make it the largest Demo-
cratic paper in the State, and hat it shall
be radically Democratic" We wish the
new enterprise abundant success, and ex-
tend to it a cordial greeting. 1t is certainly
better thus to have W Democratic organs in
this Valley than three as before, and there
by better success will be assured to both re-
spectively. The Reporter can very ably sus-
tain the cause in Southern Oregon, and ali
three Of US can work in harmony and to good
purpose, against the common adversary.
