The evil at which ! the tiro years requirement is aimed is. cured just as effectually by one - year. The addition al year is vindictive; harsh, indefensible upon any broad,generouli, and republican principle. For this reason, if adopted, by the Republi cans of Massachusetts, 2. It will be effectually used as an argu ment against the Republican party mongol' voters whose pride, self-respect, prejudice or principles are outraged or aroused by it. Thus 'the old and embarrassing issue of Americanism,"whia divided the opposition' in 1856, - will be jihrustlioto the caheass 1860, in a new and aggravated form,and the danger of a likq result seriously threatened: In one-half of the States that vote reptthlicao, or are relied upon to do so, the majority of. the party is dependent upon naturalized citizens.

That it would 'be serious, perhaps fatal, may be .reasonably inferred frm the interest 'which the question excites throughout the country: We feel no ‘passion, and can exhibit no, ,pbtensy on this subject. It is asimple quest ; ion of right •in one view, and expediency in another.

'Rickman's Speech. The Clinton Democrat, edited by 11. L. Dieffenbaoly, Deputy Secretary of the .Com rnonwesalth, and a man who Las always been true to the Pemocratic‘organization, and now keeps the names of WrigLt and 119 we at the head Of his editorial columns,: thus comments thil Sewaidism of Mr. Mickman's speech, in the BoOs Coneeotfon of the 13th of April last Is IT a Tartu ?=ln his speech before the Convection' of the 18th of April, John Hick man uttered the following: • "Let this truth," said he, '-be made prorni: l nevi—that there is an eternal 011M:4'6124m between freedom and slavers. The eoustitu lion of the human mind and•the borrian heart f • makes it inevitable ;-andtbe one or the other ; must eventually gain the ascendency." If Mr. Hickman intended this assertion to apply to white Men, then it is abOut as im-,; portant and as-new as it would hare been to I declare that when the sun stood at ,high I meridian, in a cloudless sky, light would pre- I vail upon the earth! ButAi could scarcely I have wasted his time in declaring truisms so j palpable. • The balance - of his speech shows conclusively that the declaration embraces I both the rte and the black races. Then.if there be ,in "eternal antagonism" between white freedom and black slavery, there is an antagonism that cannot he obliterated until those races enjoy an zoutirrr op maims, and this is what all negro slavery agitation in the country is coming to. If it is wrong for the I South to hold negroes - in slavery, -it is only I wrong because those:blacks are entitled to such rights as those who hold them--kas white men—enjoy under our government. If it is I morally wrong to deny these rights to the Wicks, nothing short of 'placing the two races upon an equality can obliterate the.' wrong, ; and the negro - aiitators are either,a batch of I demagogues - who pander tots morbid senti meats) accomplish other and, quite differen purposes, or else they-mean to raise the blacks' to an equality with the whites—give them i the right to vote,as is already done in the I Yankee States, the right to hold office, to sit upon juries, and to participate, in nil the de tail, of government—to produce a nation of mongrels. t' But there is an "eternal antagonism; Mr. i llickman,between what yon choose to herald I sa Northern freedom and Southern slavery. Did the slaveholder George Washington think so when be commanded the freedOni-loring• armies , of .the Revolution I. Did , the share holder- Thomas Jeffersiin think so when be • w rate the Declaration. of Independence f Did the shareholder Madison think so when be framed the Constitution! • :Did the slave-' holder Jackson think so when be came from thablaziug lines of New Orleans I Did the slaveholder bay, who never was so eloquent as when discoursing upon Liberty, think sQ !

The' Aus*rian troops in Lombardy have been variously estimated at ' from 200,000 t0'250,000 men. IC wo take ! the average of the two estimates-225.000 men—we may pot be far from correct.
