It will !m recollected by oor readers thai thii friends of Douglas in this State charged that Jo Lane purposely kept Ore gon out of tlio Union till lie uliould ascer tain whither be was elected Senator, In tcning in tbe event that he wai, to pocket doi.bJo mileage. Iu January 1859, elcTen ino.ln after tlie admission of Oregon, roan franked several boihela of circular! to this State, which were distributed by bit tooli. This circalar wu ma do op Iu subatance of such characteriatlo stun aa tbtat " No man but a black-hearted bote 'alutnuiator could make inch a charge igalnst me ai that 1 would pnt my hand into the U. S. Treasury and tuke out con structive mileage. My UodI how little they know of my pure heart; my friends hare always told me that I cured too little for money; (jod knows I never think of money unless I am reminded by other of ill necessity. My whole soul is derotcd to my country. This glorious Union I lore above oil price. I would hare sacrificed every dollnr I had and shod my last drop of blood to get Oregon into the Union. Tlio man who basely charges that I would tako double milcago Judges my heart by his own black rotten gizzard. My friends God Almighty bliss your dear pure democratic souls! the very first thing I dona woa to notify the Sergeantat-arms find every man, woman, and child in Wash Ington City that I should never! never no nevkrI an debuso my soul and stain my spotless honor as to stuff $5,908 of treasu ry money Into my v. allit for services I nev er performed." Iu the spring of 1859, at the closo of the Inst session of tlio thirty Ofth Congress, Lano drew bis per diem for 10 days' ser vices as Senator, but culled for no mileage, ns Senator. As no hnd n liable Informa tion from Washington City to that effect, we felt ounrlf in duty bound to make the statement through tlio Argus as we had no desiro to do an injustice to even as bad a man ns Lnuo. Lane returned to Oregon in the spring of 1859, and stumped the Slato with Peluzon Smith, whining and slobbering everywhere he went about the Injustice dons him by the Douglas Demo crats in supposing tlmt be was mean, con temptible, sneaking, dishonest and dishon orable enough to think of such a thing as tuking constructive mileage. No, al though wo bad no sort of fuith in Lane's honor, or honesty, wo were slow to believe that any man could be so impolitic as to wbe himself in such a garment of hypocrisy. deception, and fiilst-hood for the purpose of temporary political gain. But it seems that Senator XoMiiith has had access to tho records in Washington City, nnd discovered that ns soon ns Lano reached Washington, nrter tho closo of bis cau vnss of this Stuto with Dclnzon Smith, he did, in December, 1959, dm.r from the Treasury 5,008 milciigo as Delegate for tho first session of tho 35th Congress, and also $.1,008 miUuge. for his tixttcn days' service at Senator at the close of the suc ceeding Congress, making the sum of $11,. 004 mileage, besides his per diem for the 3oth and SCth Congress. We refer to this matter, beeanso wo did on a former occa aion misrepresent tho character of Lano by defending hiiu. from the charge made against him by his Douglas friends. We desire to set him right before an outraged public, nnd show how well his nets comport with tnoso of the scoundrels who are now mg war against tlio Union, aftoj rouoeu tlio treasury of nil the funds they coiiiit iny their hands on. 3yMr. Lincoln's Superintendent of indiun Affairs for tho Indian Territory has been driven out of tho Territory into Kan sas, without obtaining his office Mr. Hector, bis predecessor, claims to hold the office by virtue of a commission from Jeff Davis. We hopo he is no kinsman of otir Indian SiiNrintcndent Rector, in Oregon, wno aunt hint Ins predecessor, Geary, commissioned by Jeff Davis. It Is thought by souio that Jo Lano brought out com missions from Jeff Davis for all the federal appointees in this State, but finding trai tors scarcer than be expected, it was thonght prudent to retain them in his breeches pocket Jo has a sou in the rebel army. Jo himself would be there if it wasn't for gunpowder and tho scarcity of monry m the cw Dahomey. tea- The San Francisco Bulletin's Washington correspondent, in speaking of barbarities perpetrated by tho rebels in bayoneting our wounded soldiers in the light of Bull's Run, exclaims" Trcasoa is trufy the sum of all villainies." Treason is a villainy,' a very dark one too, but it is only ao itm that helps make up the ' sum.' The tret that produces such frnit as trea son murder, perjury, iuce.it, and all other col ics, is. what John Wesley called the "siim of all vilUihits." ruatiai Sines lbs disuulon rascal who edited the Kugene City Herald has runaway, and lbs offics has fallen Ir.to other hands, there has beta an overhauling of tbt old 'copy' still oo baod in the offics. A very dirty article formerly published In the Ilerald, Is said to have beta Identified bf tha origlaal mtno script as a production of tbt Missouri fid dler wbo uow holds the office of Governor of this State. Tbe article which appeared as an anonyioooa communication in tbe Ilerald, pretended to bars been written by a Republican wbo claimed to be an A boll tioulst and negro-equality man. The style and fiulsb of tbe article are much tbe asms ss that contained In tba correspondence be tween tbe Fire Points negroes lo New York city occasionally brought to light In the published records .of oar criminal courts. John's effusion is mainly devoted to denouncing the war and blackening the character of some of bis Dong!ss Demo cratic neighbors, against whom he seems to bear special malice that finds vent In a species of assault that the respectable por tion of community alwoys scorn to adopt. Tba very men wbo picked op John Whiten ker, placed blm on the Democratic ticket, and elected him Governor, are now covered with a sense of abasement by the con sciousness of wbst they have don. It ought to be a lesson full of Instruction for the future to such honorable men as are heartily ashamed of having made whistles of pig's tails by depositing votes in the ballot-box solely under tbe Influence of the party lash. Tbe fact is that the office of Governor has got to be In such bad repute since the gubernatorial ' cheer' has been filled by the lost two incumbents, that the office has got to be looked upon as rather beneath the aspirations of a gentleman. Wa hare no particular objection to this de filement of the gubernatorial chair, as we have no desire to occupy it, but we do pro test against a further degradation of journ alism by allowing John Whitcnkcr to climb np on the editorial tripod after leaving bis present scat. It will be just like bim, however, to go to Portland and buy into tho Advertiser. Tcvrtat. The one-horse advocate of treason at Albany thinks the Governmeut ought to care In to tbe rebels and become subjects of the nigger confederacy, so that they will buy our produce and that we may save ex penses. The Democrat says" For years past vast quantities of grain has been ship ped from the great North West to the Southern States. If tho war con tinues long, the Gorcrumcnt can only be supported by a direct tax and the people shall have to pay directly out of their pockets to carry on Lincoln's war." The Democrat thinks it a matter of small consequence that " vast quantities" of Government property " has been" stolen and ' shipped south,' by the rebels, which " the people shall have to pay for out of their pockets," unless we retake them. The editor of the Democrat has about as clear ideas of the ruinous consequences of sub mitting to the rcbclliou on our posterity for all time, the duties we owe to our loyal friends in the rebel States, and the imper ative necessity of our meeting this rebellion iu a prompt and decisive manner, as docs tho fattened swine which he proposes to sell to tho Southern rebel. These half breeds viow everything from the same stand point that the tories did in 1110. The to nes poured out all their vials of wrath on! Washington, ercr censuring King George,' aud, although professedly " against war, and for peace," the scoundrels never let an opportunity pass of stealthily plunging their blades iuto the backs of patriots. Tho descendants of these tories aro now all ter ribly smitten with a burning desire for peaet, yet there isn't ono of them but what rejoices in his Inmost soul at every outrage perpetrated by the rebels, and wonld, if he dared to, publish with approval the mur ders and rapes of Southern rebels, in mur dered grammar and violated King's Eng lish a? Ex-Qov. Stevens, of Washington Territory, has bceu appointed Colonel of tho 19th Regiment (Highlanders) of New York, whose Colonel (Cameron) was killed at Bull's Run. We hare heretofore bad doubts of Stevens' loyalty, as he was a warm supporter of Breckinridge and Lane. He may liavo repented, however, and re solved to atono for the crime of voting for Jo Laoe by trying to shoot the traitor'a son now in the rebel army. We wish him success. Nf.r 'irk. An unoccuDicd loir house. .Hor- merry the property of tho Hudson Bay Company, was consumed by fire on Tues day night, at Vancouver. Another fire took place at Johnson & rerkius' slaughter house on tbe same ere ning, about one and a half miles west of Portland, destroying a lurg amount of property, including some live hogs, of very fine breed. Loss estimated at $2,000. Tbe flames were distinctly seen from the bluff back of this place. XtST A party ascended to the top of Shasta Butte in California' lately. Mr. W. 8.

LrTrrri, Aug. ffl, 1861. Ko. Amis: I returned from tba Oro Fino nines near three weeks ago. ' They art greatly Inferior to the old California iniaei. Rhodes' Creek, Canal Gulch, and a few other small places, have paid well- made some mea rich and have given char acter to the wholt diggings; when, In my opinion, the balance of Oro Fino Is worth but little mors than ' grub,' to use a mi ner's phrase. What may be done in tbe way of new discoveries, I pretend not to say. I am, however, not very sanguine as to their richness. I wu at the election In W. T., and beard the candidates deliver three speeches escb, and also bad tbt pleuort of making the acquaintance of Col. Wallace. If tbt ' In dex' Is true, and I think It Is, tht Colonel is a noble specimen of oor species. I la bored Indcfatlgably for bis election over tbe nominee of tbt opposition that slip pery, elastic, and compressible eel, Mon sieor Garfielde, and alio over Judge Lan der, Independent. I should think the Judge a firm, reliable man, of good tal ents, but rsther pro-slavery In bis predilec tions, and woold uve tbt Government ty offering a lion bouquet, or by offering compromises, for which the traitors in the South have no more respect thaa they hart for abolition opinions tbt very things they bare sworn la their wrath they would not accept. Dot tbe calm, tranquil, 'peace' Judge woold "goto them with the olive branch In one hand." Bat tht Judge, though a very Intelligent, Interesting, and good man, bad a hard case on bands, and bad to pull any string that offered a pros pect of success as tbe old adage, " any port in a storm." It reminds me of tbe reply of tbt old minister to the young one, when Interrogated about tbe Trinity Some disputes having arisen, " What shall wt ssy about itf" was asked by the young minister; to which the old ont replied, " Well say three persons not that that is anything to the purpose, but something must be said, and we must not be silent." The application is easy. Monsieur Garfieldo is a good speaker, especially for the multitude windy, wordy, and speculative. His solidity and logic, however, are only second-rate. Col. Wallace is a solid, close ressoncr, with now and then a rich streak of sympa thetic eloquence and sublimity, which makes " the pulse of life stand still" in amnzement and rapture, as though nature, from a new and strange impulse, had ceased its onward more while an effort is re quired to stsrt the breathing progress of life again. While some " Ict them alone," " compro mise," "don't-koow" half-breeds are de sponding about tho stability and perpotuity of the Government, I cau in truth and candor say that I have not for tho last twenty-fire years bad as much confidence iu the unity, stability, perpetuity, and in tegrity of the Government, as at present. The reasons are to me as plain as the nose upon a man's face. I It is reported that our old friend Russell Welch, In this county, has raised a seces sion flag, having perhaps a few sympathi sers. Ho has been respectfully requested to take it down, and if he docs not, it will be taken down by force. Did Mr. Welch live in a conspicuous place, as In town or was he a conspicuous or prominent man, steps more prompt would have been taken; but he lirca (as yon koow) in a very seclu ded place, and couldn't find the nominativo case to a verb if his joyful reception in Pandemonium depended on It; hence, the very Improper forbearance of the insulted community. This man, and others like him, who are looking to this very Government for pat ents to their land, as a bounty from the Government, should be marked, and re ported to tbe Land Office Department their patents detained until Congress meets again, to repeal so much of the donation grant as is held by the sympathisers with those who are laboring to destroy the Gov- rnmcnt. Whatl receive as a gift 640 aares or land from the Government, while labeling to destroy it II This must never bo! Let them go to their masters, to whom they aro " giving aid and comfort," for a reward. And the thrilling and inter esting reception they would get, would be the hangman's ropo or tbe tyrant's whip. Iu haste yours, J. M'Bridi. hk Statk Fair. The Executive Com- ittce of the Clackamas County Agricul tural Society -had a meeting in this city last Saturday, nnd made arrangements for putting in order the grounds for the State Fair in October. Capt. J. S. Ri nearson was sppointed to take charge of the work, and posh it forward to comple tion without delay. From the Captain's known energy, the public may rest assured that oo effort will be spared to render tbe grounds suitable for the coming Fair. Wm. Barlow, tht chairman of the com mittee, drew up a paper soliciting subscrip tions in aid of the work, and in a few hours a handkomo sum wu subscribed by our citizens. . We hare not heard from him since Saturday, but presume the 'citizens elsewhere in the county responded in a like liberal manner. DrstsvsD ArroiNTsT. The Sacro menio Union of August 22d, we notice, publishes the appointmeut of our old friend, Smro Faucis, Esq., editor of tba Ore gonian, as Paymaster in the Regular A rmy. Pt tails ofZUattra XTtwa. Bisoamrs or trb ribils osj thi battli ricij). Tbt correspondent of the N. Y. Herald, from Washington. July 83, says: The barbarities practiced by tba rebels at tbe battle or uuirs nun are unparaiieiru. Aa Instance is related whert a private of tht first Connecticut Regiment found a .....wi.H rAm Ivies' In the sun. and lifted bim op and carried bim to a shade, where he gently lam mm ana rbvo mm unm from bis csntecn. Revived by the drink, the Ingrstt shot hit benefactor through the heart. Another Instance is related of a troop of rebel cavalry deliberately firing ...vnn nomlu-r of wounded men. WHO had been placed together in tbe shade by their comrades, and omoog wnom was a reui officer, wbo had received the somo kind at t.nitnn It Is said bv Vircinians who have come from tbt battlefield, that these fiends m human shape have taken the bayonets nit kalfM of onr wounded and dylnir sol diers and thrust them into their hearts and left them sticking there, and that some or tho Louisiana Zouaves have severed tbe heads of oor dead from their bodies, and amused themselves by kicking them about fnni.linlln. Such barbaritira are a sam ple of tbe boasted chivalry of these worse than Rends. A Zouave, who wss taken prisoner, with six others, and who subsequently effected an escspe, arrived here to-night with a bro ken hand-cuff on hit wrist. He reports that tht Zouaves were treated with Indian barbarity by the rebels, many being piuion ed to trees and tormented with bayonets thmat at them Captain Downey, of the Zouaves, was wounded on the Held, ana ins uoay aiter wards was found literally cut to pieces. It was cut into four quarters. Tnx Miscnur or Col. Mars' Drunk ness. It is every day becoming more and more apparent, that our men fairly won the day and had onr reserve come np, as it should, we would have held the ground, notwithstanding the superior number of the enemy. But our reserve was not brought up at all. Tbe men were all anxious for a part in tbe action, and were cheated out or it simply oecouse tueir commanaer, ioi. Miles, was too drunk to understand that he was wanted. If he escapes death by sen tence of a court-martial, it will bo simply because malitary law is lamentably defi cient in presenting a suitable penalty for so terrible a crime. Rrbkl Barbarities. Tbe statements of tho inhumanity and fiendishncss of the rebels to our wounded and dying are too well authenticated to admit of donbt. The surgeon of a New York regiment says that he had over a hundred woouded placed nndcr the shade of trees near a house, which was also filled with wounded. A company of tht enemy approaching, he raised bit sash to show that he was a sur geon, but seeing thnt they were about to fire notwithstanding, ho sought cover. Af ter the enemy had left, he returned to his wounded, and found every man of them had been bayoucted or shot. The iRisn Rkowest. Tho Sixty-Ninth Regiment New York State Militia, perform de prodigies of valor. They stripped them selves, nnd dashed into the enemy with tho utmost fury. The difficulty was to keep them quiet. While tho Second was engag ing a regiment of rebels they retreated into a thick hay field, to draw tho Northerners into a trap. The Second continued firing into them, while the Sixty-ninth, by a flank movement, took tbcm in the rear, aud pouring a deadly fire into their ranks, af terwards charged them with the bayonet. The slaughter was terrible and the defeat complete, for not a man stirred of the whole five or six hundred. . In this attack there were many of the Sixty-ninth wounded. The statement concerning the gallant repulse of the Black Horse cavalry by tbe Fire Zouaves, is entirely wrong. Not a man of the Zouaves was in sight when this terrible regiment came up. They dashed right down on tbe Second Regiment, and our gallant fellows bad as much they could do to keep their ground against them. They seemed to be wild with hate and rage, rushing right on ns with drawn swords. Our mea took deliberate aim, and firing, killed nearly every one of them. Their splendid black horses went galloping over the field. A description of tho scenes at Manas sas, in the Detroit Tribune, says: There was no lack of courage among our men, whi th er regulars or volunteers. All of them stood up to tbo work with determined and untouching zeal, and a bravery that knew no check, for the time being; while hun dreds of their comrades bit the dust beside them. Hand to hand they encountered the Rebels, and overwhelmed them for hours, until at one point of the bloody field the ground was literally covered with dead and wounded, over whose prostrate bodies the cavalry and moving artillery tramped and thundered, for lack of any other path way to the batteries of the foe. These aw ful scenes I witnessed, and he who talks of flinching or cowardice on the part of the Federal army, during this field, is a libel ler of brave men. The Memphis Appeal of Saturday, 21th, says: It is gratifying to be able to state, upon reliable authorty, that the total loss of tbe Confederates in killed, wounded and missing, will not exceed the first esti mate, say twenty-five hundred. Of these less than five hundred are killed. It is be lieved very few have been taken prisoners. The report that Col. Miles had been deprived of bis command for drunkenness, and will be court-martialed for dereliction of duty on the 21st, causes no 'surprise in St. Louis. On his way from New Mexico, Col. Miles passed through St Louis, and remained here a couple of days. A prom inent Secessionist, whom he visited and who knows him well, remarked the day af ter he left that Col. Miles had oo heart to go iuto the war; his sympathies were South, and nothing but his commission in tbe army kept him in the service. ., Is is honed that ram had more to do with bis conduct, on the 2 1st, than treachery. But he is talked of here as a traitor, and there is no reason why the truth should not be told. St. Louis Correspondent Chicago Tribnut. ExLMief.

Tho Advertiter of the 29th says: Letters received from a party in the immigration, dated the Cth of July last, girt the information that at that date they bad reached no further tban Fort Laramie. Compared with tho travel of previous years, they are at least one month behind. There were somo two thousand wagons for Oregon, traveling in a compact body. Capt. Maynadier and escort, with Mr. Medorum Crawford, were In company. It is stated that there would be a scarcity of provisions, as tho supply on band could be made to last ouly six weeks. Parties havo started out from Walla Walla with pack trains of provisions to meet their friends. We would suggest thnt others who expect friends in the coming immigra tion do likewise, lest there should be suffer ing from a scarcity of food. The advance companies mny not be expected this side of the Blue Mountains until about the 10th of October. TitE Kii.i.Kn, Wou.vnKn, ano Missing. Tho N. Y. Herald of the 29th July, smns up all the returns and official reports it had received up to that date, aud states the fol lowing as tbe results of the battle of Bull Run or Manassas: Killed 280 Wounded 129 Missing (supposed prisoners) 411 Total 1,480 The N. Y. News, in alliance with the traitors, and therefore probably desirous of magnifying the losses of the Federal for ces, gives the following account: Killed 406 Wounded.. 151 Missing 1,025 Total. 2,182 ngy Senator E. D. Baker has been au thorized to increase bis regiment to a brig ade, and to rcceivo one regiment of cavalry. The Senator commnnded the Second Illi nois volunteers during the Mexican war. Flo acted as Brigadier Gcnr-ral after Qen. Shields fell at the battle or Ccrro Gordo, and turned the Mexican left wing, captur ing a battery of Dvo pieces ut the point of tho bayonet. The Messiah is Arrived. This Is proved in the following clear manner: According to tho prophecy of the angel Gabriel to Daniel, the Messiah was to come in 10 weeks of years. Ue mci.tions first 60, then 1, and 2 weeks more, (in nil 69,) nnd the Inst week, in tbe middle of which Christ was to dio, completing thus the 10 years, which being multiplied by 1, will give 490 years. These are to be counted from the order given by Artaxerxes in 3550 a. m. for the rebuilding of the walls of Jerusalem. Nov, from that period to the birth of Christ, in 4003, we hare 453 years; to which if we add the 30 years of Christ before his baptism, giving 483, and 1 years more of last week, in the middle of which Christ died, we will have the whole number of 490 years, or the full accom plishment of the prophecy.
