C. lis Is inflexibly opposed to corruption tnd intrigue in every form. 7. He is a true representative of the principles held by tho fathers of the Con stitution. 8. He will crush out and destroy Dj onionism wherever it may appear. 9. He is in favor of tho immedinte con struction of the great Pacific Rail Roud. Winter D&vii for Lincoln I The Philadelphia papers announce that the gallant Henry Winter Davis, of Mary laud, whose vote elected Pennington Speak er, writes to the Bell and Everett men of Euston, Pa., that hereafter he shall speak in favor of tho election of Lincoln. tl U a VUrlou Fuel That when an Administration or a party becomes corrupt, the people have the power to change it, and it is their duty to do to No man now pretends to defend this Administration, but those who druw money from its Treasury. "The whole head Is corrupt, and the whole henrt is sick." It is a duty that honest men owe their country, to hut) Buchanan's Administration, and its proposed Disunion elongation, from er. If the succeeding Republican Adminis tration is guilty of one-twentieth of the corruptions of the present, every Republi can who should not put forth h s strength to crush it, should himself be damned! 5T Patrick, of the Advertiser, is vcm much in the dumps on account of thel danger tliut several spiigs of his fumily are in, who are volunteers in tho papal army J tn m UnnijiiMrs fuilccrs.

Cheers and laughter. A Plain Statement. Mr. Defrees, of Indiana, recently made a speech beforo the Republican Club of Washington City, in which ho set out the following plain and comprehensive state; inent of Republican principles: The Ri publicans simply propose, as an nounced at Chicago, as follows: 1. Non-inteifcrcnce with slavery in tho Slave States, but opposition to its exten sion into the Territories now free. 2. To procure n more efficient law for the suppression of the slave trade. 3. The admission of Kansas under her present constitution. 4. A revcuuo law, discriminating in favor of home industry, for the support of tho Government. 5. A reform in the abuses, and a reduc tion of tho expenditures of tho General Government. 6. A liberal homestead law for actual settlers on tho public lands. 7. The improvement of rivers and harbors, wherever of public interest. 8. The speedy construction, by tho aid of the General Government, of a Railroad to tho Pacific. tib?"The Portland 'Butter-Keg' has got another set of owners. It is intimated that Col.

Shouldn't wonder! fcay-The Oregonian says: The Portland Advertiser on Friday announced to its ' xoric, orcauu tho Ureikiiiringe party kWi ttot fuse with Douglas, and on Satur day it announced the receipt, by the same pony express, that Lincoln would lose Xew York, becautf that Douglas and Breck inridge men of that State had fused.

In which ho said there was no more devoted follower of Lincoln than Mr. Mc.TavW., the grandson of Charles Car of, ro 0f Currollton. COMFORT FOR THE BRECKIN RIDGERSt We are deeply pained to announce that the ureal Stute of Florida has gone against Lincoln ! The Breckinridge candidate for Governor has a majority of 1375 t THE VOTE IN MISSOURI. The Missouri Republican, a Douglas pn per, gives tho following as tho probable vote of Missouri ut tho coming election : Bell, 60,000; Douglas, 40,000; Bretkin ridse. 30.000: Lincoln. 20,000. In four years moro Republicanism will be in the majority in Missouri. MT Delnsion Smith roys Baker brought $30,000 to this Slule, to buy Democrats. If that had been the case, he could easily have bought up and silenced Smith. De lusion will change his parties and portions oftencr than ho changes his shirts, for the money. Rose's Coonsburj Exprcrs pub lishes n silly story about a difficulty at that place between Ilayden, Douglus candidate for Elector, and Moslur. n Breeker. Th statement carries a falsehood on its very face. RACKING DOWN Yancey made n speech in New York Out. 10, in which he said ho would not resist Lincoln's administration, unless he should bring in Federal bayonets to force his irrepressible conflict. The result ol the Pennsylvania election seemed to have opened his eyes. Z3T The Portland Daily But ter Keg' refuses to publish the latest election returns from the Fast, but has tho audacity to say that according to the " San Fran cisco Times, a Republican paper," Curtin, in Pennsylvania, received only a majority of 2,500. The fact is the Times put Curtin's ma jority at 25,000 1 t0mm ' JST Pat, of the Advertiser, in his mo -i nomaiiinral moments, believes that ho enn yet elect A if man Senator by means of the vote of the partner, nHd the Vancouver! Oregon legislator. Ho has set this fact right on tho " record." REMEMBER! A vote for Breckinridge, is n vote to carry Slavery into all tho Free States. This is l!ic logical consequence of the Democratic doctrine, whatever may be said to tho contrary. Mkas. Koun's Kionicle tells of a 'petty thief ' that first wrote nn editorial for that paper, and afterwards broko into a grocery, and finding only 30 cents in the drawer, wouldn't take the money. More Money Wanted. The Secretary of the Treasury has advertised for propo sals till tho 22d October, for a loan of ten millions, under the Treasury Xoto Re demption Act of June. B. Our readers will bear with us this week. We were in such a feverish hurry to lay before them the soul-inspiring news from our Republican brethren in tho East ern States, that we ore compelled to issue our paper Friday morning. The campaign is over, and hertafter we shall devote more space to miscellaneous matters. Later Foreign News. Marshal Vail liant, with three divisions ef French troops, proceeds to Italy, it is iutimnted for the purpose of arresting the progress of Gari baldi. The vanguard of the Sardinian army is only six kilometres distunt from Rome. Kay The Prince of Wales arrived in Xew York on the 10th, of October and! was received by General Scott. The ova tion was the most splendid ever witnessed in thut c'ty. UST The Republicans of Baltimore have formed a Wide Awake Club. They ex pect to poll 3,000 votes for Lincoln. f-The election of Lehmann (Di m.) in Pennsylvania, for Congress, is contested. dr"The poor Breckinridgers are struck completely deaf and dumb by the late news. We therefore print our paper in " loud " type this week. " Hello! Pat! what are you writing such a lar?e hand for?" "Arrah hon- i" t ! . , . e7, don t ye know my brother is Ulno, HOW ARE YOU GOING TO VOTE? Eo. Aoc: Permit me through your columns 10 i-ddress a it words to the citi zens of Oregon. Fvllow-citizens of this, tho youngrst State : But a few days wHI elapse before jou will be called upon to exerc.se mo g.o- - nous prcrogat.ve, the elective iranciuse, to pl.ico one oi the lour rresuienimi cumnu i.tes in the highest and most responsible po sit on known to tha Republic. How are you going to vote? How ought you to vote? Think! Dout sny your futhcr was a d.niocrut and you have always been a democrat and you always will be. Such language Is nn indication of weakness, want of manliness and precousidcration, and always comes from thoso who have no prin ciptcsof their own. It shows thut principles they advocate nro borrowed probably, from Pu and Ma. Why did they enlist in the cause of democracy ? Did they fall in lovo with the name ? you think they read tho Constitution before they extended their hand in fellowship to the slavery-propagandists f Do you thin they asked themselves, what is democracy What is democracy f About tho time of the Revolution the answer to this ques tion wus "the rule of the people," but in modern times it is "the rule of n small part of the people." Modem (' mocracy, sue us it is, is what wo hue.- to deal with now The good book soys "by their fruits yc shall know them." Accordingly wo shu have thorough kuowledgo of modern demo crats if we judge tlictn by what they ore trying to do. And what is that ? First, they want to protect slavery the territories. Second, they want to in crenso the slave breeding power by stealing Cuba. Third, they wnut to re-open the African slave trad". Fourth, they wunt to build a Pacific Railroad at the cnrliist practicable moment which will be whe they get their own way. Fifth, they nn opposed toonr war claim. Sixth, they want to tar, feather and hang all Republicans, Seventh, they want to get as much of the public money as they can. Eighth, they want to buy as many votes as they can. Ninth, they want to beat the Republicans at the coming election. Tenth, if they (loot get their own wny they wunt to dis solve the Union. I shall but briefly ulludu to the fiisloiily of these points; for in it is involved the princpal issue of the day Do s the Con stitnt'ou protect slavery in the territories ? I answer, no. The Constitution was not made Or territories, but is a compact or egrccmciit between States; and those claus es in it which refer to slavery, or "peisons bound to service,1' uro intended to protect that institution only in the Stntes where it exists by positive law. Were it not for those clauses slavery could not constitution ally exist in any Stute. Rut granting, for argument's sake, that the constitutional nu thority extends to the territories, then nc cording to Jo Lane a slaveholder may take the Constitution in one hand, his negroes in tho other, go into tho territories and there be protected by that compact. Sup pose that a slaveholder of South Carolina who holds his slaves ns property by this law "blavcs shall be deemed, held, taken, reputed and ndjudged in luw as chattels personal in the hands of their owners or possessors, &c. to all intents, constructions and purposes whatsoever" moves ton ter ritory where thcro is no human law for or against slavery, with the Constitution in hnnd. Then, ns slavery exists only by pos itive law, the substance of the law above quoted must be in the Constitution or else he cannot hold his slaves. Now the qnes- t on arises, is the substuncc of that law in tho Constitution ? I say, no. But grant ing that it is for argument's sake, then. since the States nre subject to the Constitu tion, slavery goes into every State and is protected there by that instrument, there fore as the conclusion is not true accordin to the di mocrntic creed, the supposition that the substance of the law above quoted is in the Constitution is also untrue. The principles and factions of the Democratic party war against each other; consequent ly "us a hense divided against itself cannot stand," it, branded with infamy, must fall, and the ruins, like those of Sodom, will stand to warn all parties which may here after arise that the "way of transgressors is hard." What is the effect of Democracy on com munity? It degrades the States; tramples upon religion; retards civilization; makes poor n.en Unorant, and rich men tvrnnts. Away with the present dynasty! Let ns have a reformation in all the official depart ments. Li t us hoist the banner on which is inscribed Honest Abe, Union, Constitu tion, Liberty, Justice matters worthy of many, ana rally around it until victory or dt-nth shall be ours. Friends, what do yon think of the rail candidate? Have yon ever made rails?

Thk McnDEnuD MtTiionisT Ci.Mcmi in Texas.-Rcv. Mr. Bewley, who M hung in Texas a few c'nys since on sosni- cion of abolitionism, will be remembered uy many who attended the Genera! Con- fcrence at Buffalo, last May. He represent ed tho Arkansas Conference, and was re cognized ns a peaceful, humble and dcront evangelist. His views of slavery were of tho mildest character, and he would be ' deemed the last man to thrust his views offensively mild and conservative tliongft they were upon any community. 0d his removul to Texas a few mouths sine, ho carried with him testimonials of Lift humility and devotion to his work. But he was n Methodist! That, in Texas, is leemed tho equivalent of abolitionism; and the devoted minister of Christ, guilty of no crime, nnd on the merest snspirion that lie cherished offensive opinions, was hong ip like a mnnlerer! CST The New York Times, a Lincoln. Seward paper, yet not unfriendly to Doug- as nnd at one time disposed to support him, says: " Neither Bi 11 nor Honshu is llkelv to ;'nrry any Free States or to diminish, in the least, tho Electoral vole for Mr. Lin coln. They will weaken Breckinridge and render ins success impossible, and llievetri they will receive in tho North will l mainly those which, if thev were not candidates, would be enst fur him." It is now evident to every unprejudiced man that Douglas is only running to elect Lincoln to defeat Breckinridge. Not on of his most sanguine friends has the as surance to claim for him a single Electoral ote. S&" Tho New Orleans Bulhtin de scribes a strnnco rnmnhlet which is in general circulation in Louisiana: " It bus representation of a rooster at the relit nd tho American encle ut the left side of the head, with the words, ' B.'s Southern lutform.' From the bodv of this circular we quote the following: ' We do believe and know that every vote given to Stephen Arnold Douglas or John Bell, or Edward ivcrett, goes directly or indirectly to trengthen the cause of Aholiticui?m. W nr not an open and avowed enemv so ive is for President Livcoi.x is rsrr rente to Doi olas or Bell We dis ke an enemy, but despise a traitor."' Andrew Jackson's Lativ Lore.

" Tip Vm little Latin .Gencrul, they won't be satisfied without it." The man of iron will instant ly thought upon the few phrases he kiiew, and in a voice of tlumHer wound nn hi speech by exclaiming, E Plurihu I'numJ tine qna non! ne vlut ultra! multvm in parvn.' The effect was tremendous, and the crowd's shouts could have been beard for miles.
