Ul UU1IUUU1 punt?) bave taken plaoo on this continent as bave no parallel in tho history of the world. The same montai and physical endowments which secured such grand results, promised to continuo to elevate tho nation ia ajl that is great, until it roached tho highest possible degree of exaltation of which society, in tho pre? sent oondition of mankiud, is capable. Bab just at tho epoch when the nation bas reached the position from which the grand future roic'ht-. bo anticipated aa a certainty, a new evil is presented to the young republic, which has vexed its councils and threatens to impair tho forces which have so rapidly carried it forward to distiuctiou among the na? tions. An inferior typo of men, who bad been held as Blaves, were freed and immediately elevated to an equality of political rights with tho white raco, that highest order of men on the earth. Thus the door was opened to all inferior races; and onr position on tho globe, with tho facilities of transportation now a?brded, makes us liable to tho incursiou of vast numbers of tho Asiatic peoplo, who are also inferior to tho meu who settled this country and have ruled it with such un? exampled thrift and growth of power. They cannot bo excluded from political equality while it is accorded to tho ne? gro; for in many respects thoy aro his superior. They 'may como ia more ra? pidly than it is possible to bring in the Caucasian types from Europe, ami may settle the vost plains of the West and become a great power ia the nation. Thus wo have the great evil of tho nation presented to us in a manner so threatening as to occasion uneasiness in the mind of every reflecting man. The "homogenity of nations" is tho grand principle of the modern political economists. Incompatible types and families of men cannot live happily under tho same Government or in the same country? After 400 years tho Moors were driven ont of Spain. The Greeks and Turks can never harmonize, though centuries have hold them in political association. The Irish will never be content with Eugish rule. And national antipathies and incompatibilities tho world over aro undying and immortal. Bat the worst condition of society in this world is that composed of superior and inferior types and different colors of men, and where the numbers of the in? ferior inhabitants aro so great as to make a serious impression upon the public character aud the public policy. Pro? fligacy and vioe take the place of in? dustry and virtue. Disorder and out? lawry supplant order and security. Cor? ruption gets into every department of the Government. The country is torn by the rivalries of ambitious men, who take tho field with armed retainers to seize by force what they cannot obtain by law. The roads are neglected; the high-ways are beset with bandits; agri? culture languishes, aud there is no ad? vancement in art, no improvement in industry. Indeed, the nation becomes a prey to an innumerable aud vicious brood of evils of hybridized humanity, and the obstructive aud ruinous conse? quences of a mingling of incongruous types of men ns equals in tho body politic It is impossible that wc can shut our eyes to tho cousequeuces of having as political equals families of men living in tho bosom of this country who must ever remain separated from our people, and whose characters, tastes, nnd aifini ties are so distinct from ours as to ren? der community of feeliug aud sympathy' impossible. It threatens us politically, BOOially and morally. Take the Chinese. They aro accus-' tomed to lives that are GO different from ours that their employment amongst us must produce thc most disturbing influ? ences. They live so poorly and work so cheaply, that their competition would be ruinous to our own laboring classes. We cannot expect a new mode of lifo to bo adopted by the white laborer any more than by other classes of society, and if those other classes subject him to the necessity of such a chunge of habits as is next to impossible, it will produce dis? order and bloodshed. (This is now threatened in California.) A writer in a Western journal styles tho introduction of Chinese, as "a conspiracy agaiust the freo, manly, honest, and remunerative labor of American citizens, for tho tur? pitude of which the language has no titting words." But the first step has been takon which opens the door wide. We cannot admit one* inferior race and keep ont another. And wo aro threatened with tho degra? dation of labor, tho nursery of a nation's power and greatness; with thc degrada? tion of tho Government in all its depart? ments; with the depreciation of the public character and thc extreme depravity of the public morals. lu the consideration of this great na? tional evil, party is nothing. It is only ephemeral, whilo tho evil, unchecked, must he enduring, and must inevitably seriously obstruct the progress of this nation and defeat its attainment of that high destiny which it would, under the exclusivo rule of tho truo Caucasian, un? doubtedly reach. Flirting is known as "bluffing" at Martha's Vinoyard, tho bouches which linc tho bluffs being tho rendezvous of young ladies and geutlemen who engage in tho nmnscmeut.

Mr. W. ia a gen? tleman of high rcapectability, and during the prevalence of tho cholera in St. Louis, watched the rcault of tho application of the Tain Killer for thia disease, and bia testimony can be relied upon with thc utmost confidence: DE.UI Sin: You recollcot when I Baw you in January laBt, my expressing to you my most eanguino expectations that Davis' TAIN KILLER would have a tremendous sale in tho Weat thia Bcaaou, and my anticipations have been more than realized, and the testimony of tbouaanda who havo naod it has been that thev would not bo willing to go to bed at night without it in the house. On tho appearance of the cholera in this city, auch waa tho confidence in thc Pain Killer aa a remedy, that many who purchased it remarked to me that thoy had no fears or dread of tho cholera, aa long as they bad the Pain Killer by them, and hundreds took it daily aa a preventative, for no person can have a derangement of tho bowels or diar rhcea, if they uso thia medicine. Thia was tho aocurity" and confidence of hundreds j Acquainted with it, and when their friends were attacked with the Cholera, they would administer tho remedy in large quantities, and in every case when it nae been taken in any of thc first atagea of thia disease, it has proved successful. I consider it an infallible remedy. I havo not heard of any individual in any family who used thu Pain Killer when attacked, but speedily recovered. Tho clerk informed nie that ho administer cd it to persons when cold or in the crames, and it gave immediate relief, but etill it should bo given quickly, for when tho dia cbnrgc of "rice water" has begun, thc hope of life has fled. Should this disease make its appearance among von, as in all probability it will, he not alarmed; you and all othj-rs there have tho remedy, and 1 am confident if tho Pain Killer ia used, not a sincle death by cho? lera will occur in vom- cit v.
