Wahhikutou, April 17, 18b5.
It is believed here that a corrcsiHiinlunco lias
recently occurred hctweeii Mr. Marcy and the
I’reiicli Minister, in regard to the pending clilli
culties between the United States and Spain, in
which the French Minister, Mr. Sartiger, dis
tinctly. states that the French government would
feel bound to take part in the support of the
.right? of Spain to her American istimds, and in
opposition to any attempt* on the purl of this
government, or citizen* of tlio United States, to
-wrort thrmrfrnnrher;
Tiiero i* no reasonable doubt of the truth of
this statement. It accords with the previous acts
of the French government in relation to the
protection of Cuba from our fillibusters. Mr.
Morey, in his instructions to Mr.-Sonic, refers to
ilia naval demonstration, of France and England,
in. tho neighborhood of Cuba. Senator Clayton
remarked upon tliisaubjeet not long ago, that oc
currences, while he was Secretary of Stale, hail
convinced him that lamia Na|K|eon meditated a
blow at this country, in earn of an attempt on
our part to suizu Cuba. Ail liieae statements
and intimations are separate from, and indepen
dent of, the inference* which have been drown
from the Clarendon declaration, and the declara
tion of N.ipolujii in regard to the accord of the
policy of the two governments in relation to all
matters “at all jiomts of the globe.”
lint, if the a ove report be true, we have the
definite and distinct declaration from Napoleon’s
Minister that the French government will make
itself a party against llm United States, in any
war that may occur between Spain and the Uni
ted States, for the protection of Spain’s domin
ion in Cuba.

of the statement in which Mr. Brook* alleged
that there were some tiliyseighl enl ties in prop

Conclusion of the poetry some otlu t jiu.e.
“Sam” anti Democracy.
Sam is the friend of the people. So ought Dem
ocvaey to bo, mid so it is in its purity but not
when arrayed against Sam.
Sam is the friend of America and American in
terests. So sliould be Democracy, and so must be
Democracy if it approves niiTprinciples of Sant.
Sam plants bim.'H-lf riporr ttrir broad platform of
the Federal Constitution, and from it derives the
authority for his political doctrines. If Demis-ia
cy does not the same, then Democracy is opposed
to Sam and the enemy of the Constitution.
j S.un cherishes in bis heart tlie ‘•memory, the
| maxims, and the deathlos example of our illustri
| ous Washington.” Does Democracy oppose Sam
because of this ? If so. Democracy is unworthy
to share the confidence of a grateful people.
Sam is the friend of State rights, and believes
it is the right of each State to shape itsjoternul
poliey according to the dictates of its own judg
ment. and the rights and interests of its people.--
Hence Sam is opposed to Froesuilisin. Higlicrluw
ism and Abolitionism, because lb y all deny this
right to the States. Here, again. Sum claims the
sanction of Democracy, else is Democracy traitor
to the South und to the whole country.
Sam spurns with contempt the Abolitionists of
tlio North, and is consequently denounced by the
Now York “Tribune,'’ the “National Era,’ the
Cleavelaud “I’lu ndealer,’ - and other incendiary
prints. But Sam tarns to the Democratic press
of the South, mid lo! they too. arit joined in the
ory against him ! Sam is astonished -. lie -hakes
his head. It is not good — something rotten
tiieiik! Sam smell*a “little mieo. ’ It is not so
much out of regard for interests of the “dear
people,” that lie is thus opposed, hut forshat ski.k
, interest which depends upon blinding the people
j to the fi itifds which party politicians ..re ever prac-1
; ti.-ing upon them. Sam is an enemy to the‘spoils”
l policy ; lie is opposed to Conventions packed by
j parly tricksters to defeat the wishes of the honest
I masses; he is hostile to the corruptions which
have oonv rted the freedom of suffrage to a mere j
traffic in votes, and the duties of uflice to the dis- ;
pensation of favors to political , artisans. Sam isj
a reformer, and is hated by the wicked and vici- i
otw, ns nil reformers have been Is'fore him. Hence
Bam is abused by the Abolition press of the North.

An “Asylum for the Oppressed.’
The United States census for IWO show a pnu
i per population of 134,9i2. of whom tii-i.s.iiS were
’ foreigners. Ihe k* epers of this “asy'iiin for the ip
j pressed of every land.” liave gonernn ly contrihii
| ted, in the way of taxes, the trifling sum of £2.-
| 934.80(1. ovi’.a ihi.f of which has gone to support,
j nut the native poor, but the foreign paupers c n
i signed to our hospitality- by the parsimony of their
! own countries. How far the native poor, who
certainly have a prior claim upon our bounty,
have had to su Her in consequence ol this enormous
i drain upon the public purse, may be inferred from.
’ the fact that, portioned to the relative foreign
i and native population of the Union, the former
j would be entitled to only about $295,480 of tin
milie u and a half of dollars which they actually
absorb. Generosity is truly-a cont'iw ndable vie
tue. but not when exercised at the expense of ji s
iii k Open us is the hand of charity in this
! country, if is inadequate to dispense comfort to
1 the native pour, and yet we are called on to sup
! port even a larger, number of foreigners, dodo
this it is required to divide what was barely
| enough to sustain one class of oppressed people,
between two. thereby diminishing the benefit to ei
ther one half. We insist that this is diserimina
! ting against native Americans, for they being as
ten to one of the foreign population, have an eqiii
talilc right to nixc-te.ntiis of tli&.'_piibiic charity
fund, or mi much of it as will suffice to relieve
their necessities. According to the ratio of for
eign and native population, the poor of the latter
being (id 434. the former should be blit .a fraction
over C. 643 ; whereas it is. us seen above 08 538, or
ti 1.895 more than, at the same ratio of population,
the American.
If this injustice to our own pn-r could stop here,
it would be as well, perhaps, to let the matter
drop But so long its an invitation continues to
be extended (us it must be under our prevent nat
ural zation laws) to foreign paupers to make this
country their “asylum, : so long will their own
governments avail themselves ot this means of re
but from a great burthen, and send them here by
the ship loud, to tax the industry ol Americans
! and l ike the bread out of the mouths of our own
j poor. Nor is this all. Tile foreign pauper la
i bur must ciiinc in conflict with native industry.
| under circumstances extremely detrimental to the
j latter, being long habituated to the practice of
jWhnst rigid economy and self-deprivation. Hence,
i while the price ol labor is cheapening from an
/over s pply of laborers, the p ice of provisions and
| articles of prime necessity, is going up in consc
: queruns of tin: unnatural increase of consumers: for
I there arts few foreign immigrants who bring with
1 them the necessary capital to engage m the work
|of production. Meic, then, we have two great
I evils to t, o native American, growing outotan
unlimited and unregulated influx of foreign popu
l itioti —Jthe one is a reduction of the price of 1 1-
bor to an unremunerative standard, and the other,
an increase of the cost of living to a point beyond
the reach of native industry.
Truly, if this state of tilings is permitted to con
tinue our land will indeed ho an “asylum for the
oppressed,” and nothing ki.se : for the people will
be oppressed with want, if foreigners desire to
avail themselves of the blessings which this coun
try afTofds, let them do so free of tux to our peo
ple. T.etthcm bring their capital and intelligence
here, as well us their poverty and ignorance, their
production as well as their consumption ; but not
keep the former at home, and send us only the lat
ter. We are generous and charitable, but we
don't with thmt trails in oter national character

annex a passage from his remark* OB a subject

Henry Clav was an American citizen and was
; „ 0 t ashamed of that name, whether in his n
i Kentucky, whether in the lialla of tbe American
Senate, Jr standiug at a foreigu court. [Cheers.]
[ am not ashamed of the name of American cit
iz,! nut proud to be an American. Perhaps
wvie the theme at all personal. I might show
tint tlu.-e who are natmal Kampel have, in these

our shores every person who is a lover of our

I can never consent lo try to piece out the

America a power of her own. He raised tin?
