The praise of theto orator is in the mouth of all (he " Imrdi." t3T The San Francisco Ilrrald exult Over the probable admission of Oregon, and kindly suggests that " CJencrr.1 Lane and General AJuir" be selected as Seualori. It tayi : " lie Adair has during his residence in tho Territory never made an enemy ; nnd as ho Is acceptable to nil parties, bis election to the responsible position in connection with which his nnmo has been mentioned nay bo looked upon with some degree of certainty. With dencral Lnno (fur his election is regarded by tlioso who nre con vorsnnt with Oregon politics as n moral cer tainty) and Gene, nil Adair to represent (hem in tho Senate of I lie Uuited States, the people of Oregon may rest assured that their interests will be attended to faithfully end energetically." Tho idea that General Adair, n rabid pro-slavery man, would be " acceplublo to nil parlies'' here, is somewhat amusing. Tho " hards," who have a majority in the Legislature, will hardly select Sennlors with a view to their " acceptability"-to "nil parties." If, however, they huvo any do. siro to know who of nil their asplrnntb would bo most " acceptable" to Republi cans, wo venture to suggest that it makes no sort of diflerenco what particular 'hards' they select whether Jo Lnno, Judo Wil.

Tho horriblo butchery to which nil lan guages nro subjected by this literary Sepoy, this (ilibustoiing intruder upon tho do mains of Murray and Wcbslor is per fectly shoukirg lo the nervous system of tlio intelligent reader. Just think of such Latin (?) phrases as "multim imjiano," and " ex graliadcus," nnd such nttompls at English as "nil enrolled copy of tho Con stitution," " tho reverse power than that of a kind Providence;" andeueh uncouth and unheard of phrases ns "n role of contrib utors," "an Ituliun laztaroni," " the alh hies (quory shoulder-hitters?) of the De mocratic pnrly," etc., &c., in which every number of tho Times ubnunds. A polio I what a "blind leader of tho blind 1" Jacksonville Herald. ' It seems very strange to us that tho Herald, boing nn organ of the snmo ballot-box-stuffing, shoulder hitting, pro slavery, and boidor-rufiioii democracy with tho Times, should fall out with puro demo cratic literature. We have nlwnj-s thought tho Times to bo one of the most consistent democratic pnpers that we know of, for the reason that its " lioglutin," "Mormon Italian," African English, jumbled into nn editorial hotchpotch, always nppenrs to us to be in good keeping with the general cha racter of n democratic paper whoso only avocation consists in suppressing truth, ut tering falsehoods, sneering at virtue, ap plauding fraud and villainy, and a persist ent efl'orl to make low dung puppyism hon orable by electing it to office. Such is really the business of every "democratic" paper In tho Union (excepting 'perhaps the louglas organs, which have so modified their tono that they are now denounced as " black republican"), and we really think the Times is exceedingly felicitous in couch ing its democratic sentiments and instiuks in tho purest stylo of the until im Indiana im, Afrkanim dirlia ejluviim vatlrim squirtim classics. JlT The California papers by the last steamer givo accounts of nn almost tin-licnrd-of oxodus from that Stalo to tho Fra iiior'a rivor miues. There aro five steam ers ond sovcral sail vessels running regu larly to Nottingham Hay. About sixteen thousand persons nre said te have already shipped for the new diggings. Miners in California nre selling their claims at a great sacrifice, or giving them away, in order to raisonn outfit. Mr. Davis, who is just up from California, informs us that one mun sold town property worth eight hundred dollars for fifty, and joined the crusade. QO Tho last Standard contains an ex tract written by some one, whoso name is not given, who had talked with persons who related that one man, Kerrison, had taken out over Si) 000 in gold in less than a month in tho new mines. Emerson and Hicks had come in to the settlements with (3,000 each. These stories must be taken with tho usual number of "grains of allow ance." The U. S.

Wo notico that one of our cotcmporariea, which Im Liiberlo seemed lo revel In bloody Indian news, and Las in imagina tion teen ilia whole mountain tops lurid with tho inceudiary torch of "tho rod devils" for the Inst three years, hi been placed between tho two horns of a sad di lemma cither to still cry "bloody mur. der," "Indian outbreak," cVc, at tho ox pense of a heavy trado that might spring up with California miners til route for tho new mines by way of Portland and the Dulles, or elso crack up the advantages of tho Dalles route, nt lb expenso of sudden ly "drying up" that old favorite blubber about Indian hostilities. Between the two horns of this terrible dilemma our cotcmporary is just now rest ing, not having decided as yet wliich ' horn' will " pay" best. tO" There appears to be tenfold more excitement in California about the Fra tier's river mines than there is in Oregon. Up to this date, but comparatively few have kft this section, and the probability Is that a general rush will not be made till after harvest, when something more certain w ill bo known as to the "prospects." Orego nians have been so often humbugged thnt it behooves them to lake gold uows coolly and in moderate doses. XiA Several companies have lately started to the new mines by way of tho Dalles, and it is said there is liUlo danger from the Indians, provided twenty men or moro go in n company. Tho terrible hu'lubaloo lately raised by some- of the excitablo and injudicious editors obout In dian outbreaks, has already turned the whole tide of tho California geld. seeking emigration by way of I'uget Sound. teT Professor Caiy, who has for some limo been successfully developing astro nomical science by lectures and exhibitions throughout the couutry called on us last Thursday in company with Lis son Frank, who accompanies tho exercises with sing ing and performances on lliu violin. Mr. Cary is now en route for tho country eu the west sido ef the Willamctio river, and intends to visit Washington, Yamhill, nnd Polk counties. Since his lecture here lie has entirely changed the programme of exer cises, nnd is now lecturing upon a new and improved plan. IIq has also enlarged his selection of astronomical and oilier inter esting views for the mngio lantern by tho addition of a variety of Scripture represen tations reaching from the Flood down to tho Crucifixion. Thcso lectures are calculated to render an equivalent fur tho money paid, in the way of real and useful information, hence t lie general interest manifested in them. Wo a'tended one of these lectures and tho only thing wo Lad to regret was that more time, was not allowed the lecturer for the development of matters thnt ought to have occupied three evenings at least, instend of being crowded into the short compass ef a single effort. It would bo bettor for each class to pay three dollars each for three lec tures than one dollar for a singlo one. Ctr The uarrow-souled practice of sev eral Oregon journals for years p ist, of abu sing Californinns as a raco of cut throats nnd spendthrifts, nnd more than intimating thai wo wanted no.no of thorn .here, has tended to prejudice good men in that Slate against us, and prevent an immigration thnt wo might otherwise have had. Add to this tho effect of an almost constant howl which is kept up by half crazed scrib biers rampant for startling news items, about our constant dangers from tho bloody savages, nnd we nt onco seo a very promi ncut cnuso of our slow increase in popu lation. 03" Au Indian child ubout two years old fell off tho bluff back of this city last Saturday, and was precipitated head fore most some sixty feet upon the rocks below, severely fracturing its skull, and causing its death in about two hours. The Indian lodge stood upon the bluff somo sixty feet back of the precipice, nnd tho child was not discovered till it was upon tho very brink of the chasm, over which it plunged at tho very moment its mother ondenvorcd to grasp it. Upon seeing her babe dashed upon the rocks far below her, she set up a scream that aroused tho wholo city. No thing coulJ exceed the poignancy of her grief as exhibited in frantic gestures, howls, and shrieks, as sho danced upon tho very edge of tho projecting rocks, nnd repoated in a voico that could be heard hulf a mile, " Iskum itika leitus! istum niia Unas!" (get my baby I get my baby !) The child was taken up by a kind-hearted Indian who chanced in town mid ran with nearly fifty whito men to the rescuo. We passed the Indian lodge two days after tho acci dent, and saw four or five squaws sitting around tho corpse of the bnby, and sending up nn unbroken chorus of w ailing that sat isfied us of the strength of a mother's love in even the breast of a poor untutored squaw, While we deeply commiserated their misfortunes, we couldn't help thanking God for tho promise of that sunny land where the heart strings of affection will no more be rudely snapped asunder in the dwelling of the white man or the hut of the poor savage. KrThe rain has fallen in torrents at pretty regular intervals during most ef this week. The result of course will be a very heavy crop of grass, grain, and vegetables. ELECTION RETURNS. Jacktoa t.o.

Passago of tho Oregon Bill through the Scnato I Washington, May 18, 1858. Mr. Douglas, of III., moved that the Or egon bill be takoa up, upon which motion tho yeas and nays wero oallcd for. The vote being 28 against 28, tho chair (Mr. Hreckenridge) votod affirmatively ; consequently tho bill was beforo I he Senate. The ponding motion was Mr. Trumbull's that tho consideration bo postponed till December next. Mr. Fitzpalrick, of Ala., spoko in favor of the postponement, in order that an ena bling act may be passed and a census taken. Mr. Gwin, of Cal., warmly urged Lor immediate admission, and referred to the poll books to show thut Oregon has ample population, aud is able to maintain a Stalo government. Referring to the clause in hor constitution prohibiting Chinamen from voting, Mr. Gwin defended it on the ground that the Chinese aro a pestiferous degraded, slavish raco, and that many of them are tho slaves of matters in China. They take away tlio gold while contrib uting nothing lo tho industry of the coun try. In California their evidence is not re ceived in tho courts of law. They are not citizens of the Uuited States, and Or. cgon has done rightly iu rejecting both Chinese and negroos. Mr. Douglas, of III., replied that every step in the formation of her constitution and application for admission was legally submitted and ratified by a majority of the peoplo of Oregon. Why then should she not be admitted t Simply becauso she Las net the requisite population t Ho believed that Oregon Lad moro population than Kansas. He might not think she had moro than ninety-three thousand popula tion now, but ho did not believe she would have it in December. It would be belter, tbercforo to test the admission by a direct vole, for the motion to postpone lo Decem ber is nearly equivalent to keeping her out. no was opposed to drawing distinctions between these two inchoate Stules of Or-t egon and Kansas; opposed to saying that one has a right to come in without suffi cient population and an enabling act, and that the other shall not. Oregon has ful filled every rcquirmcnt specified in the President's Message. She is prepared to come in, nnd Las submitted every step of that preparation fairly lo the people, and has avoided evory one of her informalities which were urged asnn insuperablo objec tion to the admission of Kansas. Put these two inchoate States on an equality, and he (Douglas) was ready for the gen eral rule which he Lad struggled for for years, that in future all now States must have the requisite population, nnd to en force thnt rule strictly in all coming timo It is unjus;t to tho peoplo of Oregon to keep them in suspense, unaware of their condition, whe'.hor they are lo be admitted or not. With reference to tho oilier sub jects introduced into debate, he enred noth ing. The sovereignty of a State has a right to exclude Chinamen if disposed to exclude them, and so with free nrgroes, and so with slavery. The Slate has a right to admit or exclude them, and Mr. Douglas denied the right of Congress to decide on that question of policy. When a State comes for admission shu lias a right to come with any constitution that does not violate the Constitution of the United Stales. Mr. Hale, of N. II., said a few words re specting treaty obligations with the Chi nese Mr. Trumbull, of 111., argued that Kan- sas being admitted to pacify tho nation, which was on the verge of civil war, there was no reason why tho rule should be re laxed in favor of Oregon. Mr. Douglas replied If admission on easy terms was held out as the rewaid of rebellion, Oregon could resort to that as well as another: but the Oregonians are a law abiding people, and for that very reason if for no other, should have the re strictions relaxed. The important interests of tho Pacific slope required more repre- sentatives in Congress. Mr. Seward, of N. Y., protested against making the admission of Oregon depend ent upon the analogy betwen it and an other Slate. He was determined on voting for its present admission, apart from ihe question of its being a free State, by the fact that geographically and politically Or egon is indispensable to the completion and rounding off of this republic. It is just as indispensable to the completion of the Un ion as New York or Louisiana. We have struggled too long to get it, and have cher ished it too much to permit it to pass under the influence of Great Britain or Russia. Every man knows that it is to be admitted some day now or sometime hence. What is to prevent it now 1 Senators say she Las not one Lundrcd thousand popula tion. Well, what of that 1 The motion to postpone till December next implies that she will then have the requisite population. Is the delay till then te risk the embarrass- ng circumstances, and probably a post ponement for another year from the multi plicity of business during the short session ? Oregon is ready for admission. She has fulfilled all the requirements, a further de lay appears te be trifling with Ler people, besides being calculated to convey distrust to the public mind. Mr. Seward favored the admission of Territories into the cm inunity of States as soon as they wore fit- led for it, and said that tho sooner th'y become Stales the moro healthful aud vig orous they will bo. Mr. King, of N. Y., would vote fur the bill, although perhaps tho population was not sufficient. Referring to ihe Oregon constitution, Lo said tho disabilities im posed on frco blacks are too stringent, but ho himself waa against too many frco blacks in a Slate. It was for lha benefit of both racos dial the black and while ra cos should livo separate. Mr. King rend a letter from a colored man on tho subject of tlio establishment of a colored colony in South or Contral America, lie agreed in this view, and lie considered that a black colony in Central America, receiv ing aid and protection from this Government, would moot the inter ests of both racoa. The blacks Lave a prejudice against Liberia. Ho had learn ed thnt ihe colored population had been considering (he conditions, which made it difficult fur them lo act in the mailer. He would not suggest any means by which their movement could bo carried out. It was for the Slatea interested to take slops in the matter, and Lo would glvo what sup. port he could to nny proposition having a practical form. Misssouri, perhaps, was the locality in which it could bo best con sidered, as a sentiment existed I hero to ward emancipation. Mr. Greer, of Mo , knew that tho feeling of emancipation did not exist in Missouri, except to a most limited extent among a few individuals. I In knew the object of this movement of the Senator fiom New Yerk, nnd desired to meet it on ihe thresh hold. It was intended to stir up and fan the flames of discord to sond not peace, but a sword. The sentiment ef Misseuri was in favor of peace, but nol of emancipa tion. .Slave lubor is profnnble therein, and tho number of slaves has increased. Somo further remarks were made, after which the postponement till December was loi by a voto of 38 against 10. The bill was then reported, without amendment, except unimportant, verbal ones, nnd finally passed by a vo'e of 35 against 17. The following is the vote: Yeas Messrs.
