The organ of both factions of the De
mocracy nro now vory busy in milking up
extracts from tlio writings and xpeeches of
promineut Democrats to show tliut this or
that pnrtictihir principle bas been endorsed
lijr tlio very men who. now "pit upon it.
lluchunnn, Poor Fierce, Yancey, and
host of oilier great lights of Dinunionism,
ure being quoted by the Douglwt pupen us
baring once swallowed 'sitiutter sover
eignty' as the corner-stone of all truo De
mocracy. ' Uy thin, the Douglus orgnns
wish to show Unit the Administration or
Hrcckiuridgc party Is inconsistent, Imving
' scouted the old creed, and adopted the ex
act opposite of wliut they lately held to.
On the other hand, tlio Vaneoy organs aro
publishing contradictory and conflicting
- oxtracti from Dougtui' speeches, to show
tliut in trying to ride the three-legged LoIj-
by of the 'Dred Scott decinioii, 'squatter
Korcreiguty and 'unfriendly legislation
he is a very unreusonublo and inconsistent
man. Tlio natural inference druwu by
Uicjc editors from the published record in,
that all such Democrats as are following
the leud of men who hcud tlio funtion to
which they do not belong, are a very silly
set of usscs. Tlio conclusion these knights
of the quill so nuturully como to in a legiti'
inato one, and we are not dmposid to ques
tion Its soundness. It has always looked
to us as though it must bo a humiliating
position fur a white ninn to occupy, to be'
long to a party which hus no earthly oh
ject but to possess tlio spoils, by running
cutididutcs on a platform made up of such
a close bliave of principle n.s to satisfy
knaves uiul gull fouls enough to curry an
election. It does look to us ns though it
was ruthcr a hnrd lot to belong to a party
which is driven hither uud thither by the
lush of spoilsmen and place-hunti rs to lie
compelled to swear ull tlio time that "prin
ciple art eternal, and mm change," and ut
the Ha in o time to stand shivering in the
ranks, with both curs open to culch the
order from headquarters to bawl fur ' squat
ter sovereignly lo-duy, uml shout for its
oppositu tomorrow to denounce a 'slave
codo' to-day, and applaud it as part of tho
very Constitution tomorrow to swear
that n Disuu'onist deserves death today,
nnd get down on tho marrow-bout to kiss
the feet of the Yancey villains whenever
the order comes from Charleston, Haiti
more, or tho While House. As liumiliiit
lug ns this position uiny appear to lie, nnd
us it reully is, it is nevertheless the position
. or ull such us are still hugging tho decoy
iug enrcan of Sectionalism culled by faunt
its 1 Democracy.'
To show tliut Democrats of modern times
urn political weathercocks, set up to be
, twisted this way or that way mere tools
of unprincipled and designing men wo
uocd uot go outside of Oregon.
nut is n Democrat?" is a question
that has been so difficult to answer, that
tho organs of fanaticism hero huvo failed
to settln it after Imving devoted, according
to our best calculation, just four thousand
six hundred and some eighty odd columns
in trying to inuko tho whole thiug as clear
as unit!. We propose to run over a frac
tion of our own political history, out of
which to frame a mirror in which Demo
crats ciin seo their faces. Now ull vou
Democrats who claim to be such from iirin
ciple, nnd believe tliut principles nro cter-
tiul that is, that a truo principle to-dav
cannot become a false principle to morrow,
will plenso to look into our mirror uml
seo what manner of things yon arc. In
tho first place, you know that you, Instead
of thinking for yourselves, let your organs
think for you whatever your papers tench,
you swallow. Well, then; nheu Lane's
nigger 11 ibbeu published Douglas' sjieivh
in ISo" in favor of squatter sovereignty,
uml applauded it ns " sound, rock-bottomed
emocracy, thi tery doctrine on tchich the
Oregon Democracy all stood," you Times
Democrats swallowed it right down, didn't
youf Yon nil thought it wns an eternal
truth, ns pnlpnhle ns the nose on a mail's
t'nee, nnd wondered with Jim liuclmnnu and
Lane's nigger how any man could think
otherwise, didn't you? Well, the vory
next steamer came, and Hibbiu got in
structions from his master, that Douglas
and Jim liuchnnnn (the dispenser of federal
pup) hud quarreled, nnd that ho (Ilibheu)
iuut go agninst Douglas nnd squatter
sovereignty, llibben had a long leader
already set up in type, extolling Douglas
nud his 'yurrtat purrinciple' to the skies.
Now, if that leader had been printed, you
would have opened your mouths nnd swal
lowed it w ith as much gusto as a tnuke
ever sucked down a toad, wouMu't you?
Well, lut'tbe leader irusVf printed; it
was in accordance with Joseph's wishes
the sagacious Joseph, whs was shrewd
caoajb tfi sod with the party which like
Judus " carried tho bag" vat taken oil
if the form, and never prinled but tho
Times from that hour denounced Douglas
at not much of a statesman, and rather a
risionary fellow any vayettJ hooted at
squatter sovereignty as altngfiher loo rotten
a thing for the Oregon Democracy to
stand on. Well, you paused, hesitated
perhaps for a moment, and, whirling round
so quick the hind sidu of your pants stuck
straight out before, you shut your eys,
gulped down the nigger's second dose, and
said it lusted wonderfully Democratic,
didn't you? N.
Again: before Lune imported llibben,
you ull pretended to believe that the Re
publicans were In favor of letting poor nig
gers vote; consequently yoa rolled up the
whites of your eyes terribly when you
learned that tho Republicans were about
to orgunize iu Oregon you were all dowu
on ' neeger equulity,' were you not? Hut
tlio moment an imported nigger como here,
nnd took the reins of tho Democratic enrt
iu his own hands, yon were all willing to
get up and ride behind him, were you not?
When Lane's nigger went to Sulcio, nud,
by the force of his eluqucuco and the pow
er of his odor, induced the State committee
to adopt 'caucus sovereignty,' you ull
swallowed 'caucus sovereignty' as readily
as a duck swallows cold mush didn't you?
Well; if llibben hud tuken the popular
sovereignty sidu of tho question, and suc
ceeded in making the committco adopt
'popular' instead of 'caucus' sovereignly,
you would Imvo all devoured that as un ex
cellent diniinycrutic dish wouldn't you?
Hut you Delus'on men let us huvo a
word with you. You arc all down on
Gcrrit Smith, because you say he Uuchcs
negro equality, amalgamation, nnd so forth.
Well, you ore willing to votu for und bu
led by Delusion Smith, who practiced in
Ohio whut (Jcrrlt has only taught in New
York. When Delusion stumped the State,
lauding Douglas and eulogizing ISush, you
swallowed both Douglas and LSnsli ut one
gulp, didn't you? Hut when, in If GO, he
throttled them both, denouncing one ns
" wane, than a murderer," nnd, uftcr kill
ing them, he skinned them, gutted them,
uud hung them up to " freeze, as did the
notes iu .Munchausen's trumpet," you ull
cried Amen! didn't you? Again: when
the news first cumo from ISaltimore that
Douglus und ISrcckiiiridgu were Loth nomi
nated, you didn't know for a while which
you would go for did you? Well, Delu
sion didn't know, either; ho was waiting
for information. If Delusion hadn't yet
mndo up his mind, your minds wouldu't be
yet Hindu up would they? 15ut the very
next mail brought advices from Joseph,
nnd tho very issue of tho Medium that run
up tho names of tho Disunion candidates
at its mast-head acknowledged sundry fa
vors from Joseph, among which was a
' tea plant' (that tea plant had probubly
a bung-hole in it.) Delusion's Medium
was now fairly nt sen for Yunceyism, und
you ull got nhourd, didu't you? Now, if
Douglus had made a stronger bid than the
Yanceyites, by sending tieo ' teu plants'
instead of one, Delusion would probably
havo gone for " Douglas nnd the Union,"
instead uf Yunceyism nud Disunion, and
you would ull have tumbled into the same
dug-out wouldn't you? So you sco tliut
your Democracy all turns on a little cheap
whisky that runs down Dclusiau'n throat
instead of your otrn.' You seo tliut, don't
you ?
Hut a word with the subscribers to the
Kiiwiic City Herald. When tho news
enino that tho Yanceyites had bolted the
Charleston Convention, you of course read
and swallowed right down such expressions
ns this, which wo find iu tho llcruld of
May i!t):
" It will be seen that several of the most
Southern Stutisof the Union, uftcr having
failed to fasten their peculiar endemic
views upon the Convention, retired from
Unit lioily, nud left its deliberations untrani
meled by their presence. As it is.
the Democratic party iu tlio Union can
congratulate itself that the only faint sem
blance ol sectinmility which ever clung to
its skirts has been cut entirely awuy, nnd
that it stands now absolutely clear of aught
tlso than the liroad, pure, national pruici
pies of conservative Democracy."
Well, w hen you rend that, you rejoiced
that tho Sectional, Disunion fanatics hud
left thu Democratic party didn't you?
liut a few weeks after, when the sniveling
Herald, in payment probably for a " tea
plant'' or soma similar consideration, run
up tho nominees of this same Sectional
faction nud swallowed tho Disunion run-
dldutes at one gulp, you all ran up and
licked tho pluto your masters had eaten
from didn't yon?
Aud you of the News the last on.l
hail of the Democratic family permit us
to step ou your tails to c'raw your attention.
Whvu the News first ran up the name of
Douglas at its must-head, and urged, with
all the power of its half-rat and half
kiota howl, tho election of Douglas, you
were all for Douglas too, were you not?
But the very next week, when, as it is
said, the paper was induced to haul down
the name of Douglus nud run up the uame
of Breckinridge, for a keg of butter, you
all went tor Breckinridge, too didn't yen?
Now if the friends of Douglas had thought
it w orth while to keep the name of Douglas
living there, at the expense of firo kegs of
butter, you would have still shouted for
Douglas wouldn't you? So vou see tliut
rour Democracy has been decided br one
keg. of rancid butter, that greased another
man's griddle-cakm instead of your own.
We might hold up our mirror a while
longer, but we presume that every Demo
crat who has looked into it has already
seen the full-length portrait of a jackass.

Tho news of tho election of two Senators
to represent Oregon in Congress, will, we
are assured, be a source of great satisfaction
to the people of the Stuto and of the
country. The combination by which it
was effected was uiudu by thu people in
June, nud has been honorably aud fuirly
curried out by their representatives.
Col. Ncsmitii, who Is elected for the
long term, enjoys the confidenco of bis par
ty, and will, we have no doubt, justify it
hereafter.
Of our Republican Senator, Col. Bakkii,
wo need not speak. He is too well known
to the whole country, to require uny words
of praise from us. Wo exult iu his success
we u (I in ire the skill with which ho bus
conducted the wholo campaign and we
rejoice iu the propect which his election
opus for tho State.
Hepuhlicuns uf Oregon! you have achiev
ed a glorious victory! l'ursue the retreat
ing enemy, uud iu November tho Ilcpubli
can star will blaze over both of tho new
States of the I'ucilic Coast!
Gi.oiiiKirATiox. We h-nru tliut upon
receiving the news of the election of Col.
Baker to tho U. S. Senate, tho Ropubli
enns of Chnnipocg fired one hundred gnus
in honor of thu event. One hundred guns
wero ulso Gred by tho Republicans of La
fayette, und a like1 number at Daytnn.
Car Our friend Yuuglian, who, by the
way, is a mun of good many sound ideas,
says tliut his obscvution has led him to the
conclusion, tliut such men ns were nursed
by negresses, nnd sucked their milk during
infancy from tlieui, nro ull pro-slavery men
in Oregon, while such ns drew their milk
from the breasts of while women are sure
to bo Republicans. We rather think
friend Yuuglian is correct.
Mistake. The Portland Advertiser
charges us with appropriating its dispatches
without giving it credit. Tlio Advertiser
is mistaken. The dispatches we published,
to which it nlludes, wero copied from dif
ferent southern journals, principally frnin
tho Red Bluff Semi-weekly Independent.
No paper ' hooks' more news items th in the
Portland Advertiser itself
Aciucii.TinAi, AiuniKss. Through in
excusable neglect, we omitted to notico the
very excell nt address of Rev. Hey.ckiuli
Johnson, iu our remarks hist week upon
our County Fuir. The address of Mr.
Jolinsou wus delivered at thu Court House
before the Agricultural Society and a
largo nuii.b r of citizens, among whom we
were pleased to sco many ladies.
Strket Ijiprovemknt. Janus Athey and
S. W. Moss, Esq., the enterprising con
tractors upon our streets, nre progressing
finely with their work in grading uud inuc
aduiuizing tho same. The work has ul
rendy reached tho comer of Mr. J. R.
Ralston's residence, nnd we believe it is
contemplated to extend it ns far us Ninth
Street, iienr tho Congregational Church.
Main Street when thus completed will,
without doubt, be the finest and most ser
viceable street in Oregon.
MiLoi uiiLiN Kxcink Co. No. 1. Our
allusions to tho Fire Company last week
have caused u little ill feeling on the purl
of some of the members of the Company
which wu think unwarranted and unrea
sonable. Our remarks wero prompted in
tho greatest good nature, nnd certainly
without tho most remote intentiou of
wounding nny one's feelings, uud how nny
thing personal cun bo tortured out of what
wo then said, is Lryond our comprehension.
We may be duller than most others, but
this much we do know-nothing personal
was intended. There nro three clusscs of
men we always aim to treat with the
greatest respect, namely members of fire
companies, pilots on the Mississippi river,
and engineers on passenger boats generally.
If wo huve faihd to do so iu this instance,
why, wo beg pardon-that's all.
Our Firo Company wo always knew
contained the right material for the forma
tion of an active and efficient company in
our city organization being tho principal
thing needed. That we learn is in a fuir
way of being accomplished, and when it is
done, wc hope to sec the organization main
tained. With the present complement of
officers, from the worthy foreman, William
DierdofT, Ksq., down, we huve every as
surance that the Company will be an honor
to Oregon City and the State.
New Goods. N. Brown, Esq., of the
firm of Brown k Brother, returned on the
late trip of the Brother Jonathan, bringing
an extensive addition of goods to their
already large assortment. The ladies are

t.Wcttoa f l'.oarmaa.
Wb suniiose. from the rending of the
Governor's messugc, tliut he Is not iu lavor
of a lw to provide for sn election of a
menilr or Congress on the first Tuesday
of November; from which bis political
friends Infer that if a bill Is passed by the
iiT.iti future urovulmjr for such an tiecuon,
he will veto it. II snys, however, that
'many peoplo doubt the legality of the lust
1 . . . . - - ..... to..., flllll
election. Ill case oi a vciu, "'""'"
the Legihluture will havo suflicieiit respect
for themselves not to submit to his approv
al any other bill on the subject; nnd that
the people will elect a member or Congress
ut the November election. Suro we are
that n candidate thus elected would huvo
us good claims to a seat in the House of
Representatives as Slieil; uud then, proba
bly, we should Dud out iu duo timo who
would get the scut. A cuudidute fresh
from the people would be more desiruble
than one elected eighteen months before he
would bu wanted.
Nxt Wixtkii Tho Orcgoniun nnd
Farmer uro somewhut exercised ubout tho
predictions mudo by tl.e Indians concerning
tho severity of the coming winter. Now
it is just right in theso papers to stir np
the people to a preparation for a hard
winter, whether wo huvo it or not. Our
Tanners ought ulwnys to be prepared with
a bountiful supply of food for stock, though
heretofore wu believe they have generally
hud hut little. This ycur there is more hay
put awuy for winter's use than we ever saw
saved before. The early rains this full in
dicate a favorable winter. We huve never
seen, during twelve years' residence here,
a fall like this, with turly rains, and warm
sunny days, but that was succeeded by a
favorable winter. The signs of the times
indicate an open winter, Indian prophets
to the contrary notwithstanding. The '
trashes limy be right, but, if they nre, it is
ull guess work. The fact is, wo regard
the lousy race us littlu better authority on
tlio weather thun McCormiik's Alumnae
ou the rising nnd setting of the sun.
Wheat Sowing. Since thu late glorious
rains, we presume our farmers nro taking
timo by the forelock and starting their
plows that is, such if them as are through
with their threshing. Thousands nnd per
haps millions of bushels cf gruin nre yet in
the stuck, waiting the slow motions of
machines. There nre not half machines
enough in the country this year to meet
the demand, such Is the magnitude of the
grain crop.
Others can do as they please, but wc
have nudo op our mind to sow no more
wheat late ill the full say uftcr tho cold
ruins set in. We can raise twice the wheat
to tho acre sowed in February, March, or
April, that we can when sown later in the
full than tho middle of October. Wre have
also decided tliut it is much better to plow
in wheat, nnd plow it in deep, than to
burrow it in. Our bist wheut by ull odds
this year wus sown iu March, and plowed
iu ten inches deep.
Gaining G hound. We notice tlint since
tho death of Coon's Express ut Roscburg,
the Douglas Democracy arc gaining ground.
Coon's Express, whilo it flourished os the
lending orgnn of Blnck Democracy in this
Stat seemed an effeituul bar to tho as
pirations of tho Douglas party. In the
death of Coon's Express, tho Douglas De
mocracy have cause of congratulation, as
they havo nothing now to fear from the
Lane butteries, although thu News, Me
dium, Union, nnd Sentinel nil live. Next
to Coon's Express, the News will probably
rank in consistency, ability, and sagacity.
If the News wns out of the way, we nro
not sure but b majority of Oregon Demo
crats would probubly go for Douglas. As
things now stand, we believe the party
will be pretty evenly divided that is, un
less Coon's Express should be galvanized
into life, Joseph's " teu plants" might
resuscitato tho editor, but printers seldom
take " tea" for pay.
Concession. Delusion, in noticing the
fact that Jo Lnue spells dirt with two ('-
and barracks with nn x, says that if all
the voters iu tho Union thut spell this way,
vote for Lane, he will certainly be elected.
That is ns imich ns to say, if Lane gets ull
tho ignoramus votes he will bo elected.
We always knew that Democratic editors
counted largely ou the iguoranco of V. e
populace, but we never knew one before
who was willing to own that the Demo
cratic party didn't want the vote of any
man who had sense enough to spell dirt
so a Democrat can eat dirt, he will never
be asked whether he cau spell it or not.
Pkter Tcrnrd Up. We see that poor
spitting Peter, our old friend of the Times
in its palmiest days, before it wus violated
by Lane's nigger, has turned np ofter a
long snooze. He figured as a delegate to
the Yancey Convention at Eugene City.
Peter is a shrewd Democrat, although his
brethren attribute but little talent to him.
Ho is always on the paying side of De
mocracy, from instinct. His instinct is
sharpened by necessity, which makes him
always as sure to work iu paying diggings
as a good dog is sure to scratch at a hole
that has a " varmintr in it.

Si-DJECTS fob LrmsuTtov. He recom
mends that two U. S. Senators bo elected
ut the present session of the Leglsluture.
He ulso recommends the pussago of a law
authorizing the election of members of Con
grew, no thnt, for the (", there shall
bo no doubt of the legality of elections
und thnt provision also be inade for prompt
ly delivering to the public officers the elec
tion returns. He recommends the passage
ofaluw prescribing tha duties of the Su
perintendent of Common Schools. He
stutes that the seat of government is now
to be located, nud recommends thnt that
shall be determined by a vote of the peo
ple. He notices tho fuct that under the
provisions of the present luw, requiring
bonds to be given, no suitable person will
accept the office of Qnnrtcrinnster Gen
eral, ond the consequence is that the arms
of tho State ure scattered over tho centrul
counties of the Willamette valley. He
recommends thut adequato laws bo provid
ed to secure a well-truiucd militia. He
suggests that prompt measures be tuken to
procure tho locution of tho swamp and
overflowed lands and other lands granted
to the Stuto by tho General Government.
He has exercised tho pardoning power in
two cases, and a commutation of punish
ment of one. He recommends thut provis
ion be made for the support of tho insane
aud their enre. He suggests the passage
of a law for the appointment of public ud
ministrntors.
The Penitentiary subject is
discussed at some length. We do not sec
us any new views ure advanced upon it.
He makes no specific recommendations; we
uro only certain that the present peniten
tiary system is not satisfactory to thu peo
ple. We nre reminded thut Oregon, the
past year, has been blessed with health and
a bountiful harvest. He refers to " hard
times," ond, as the only remedy, thu en
couragement uf homo manufactures, und
industry, nnd frngulity very good Repub
lican doctrine.
The close of the message, embracing sev
eral paragraphs, exhibits mi ignorance of
the political Irstory of tho day, equaled only
by its impotent bitterness. Wo are
iishamcd of this display by thu Governor of
Oregon, nnd will refer to only one of his
singular statements. He says:
" As indirectly growing out of the
' Brown invasion,' wo huve tlio unusnul
spectacle of four prominent candidates for
the Presidency before the people."
What man of common intelligence be
lieves one word of this? Did tho Repub
licans nnminnto a candidate in consequence
of John Brown's invasion? Did the De
mocracy divide nt Charleston and Balti
more and nominate two Presidential candi
dates on account of John Brown's invasion?
Did tho old American party nomiunte a
candidate on account of John Brown's in
vasion? We have no answer to this but
the oft repeated remark that "nryxmall
vessel should knp near shore," and that
tho Governor's friends if ho linn any
should examine his documents before they
nro sent to nn intelligent people.
Bkkckinrkice's Speech. Tlio election
in Kentucky tieurly " knocked tho pegs
from under" Breckinridge. For several
days, with his own Stuto ngninst him, he
was disposed to decline running for the
Presidency. This fuct wns understood all
over the Eastern Stutes. His friends, how
ever, induced him to keep in the field, nnd
dispatches were sent over the country on
the wings of lightning that ho would still
"stand." It was under this 6tate of
things, to sustain himself in Kentucky, thnt
he was induced to make a speech a few
dnys since. It docs not equal many of his
efforts. It is a whining appeal. He in
sists thnt he is not a Disunionist. But he
is at the head of tho Disunion party; nnd
there is not a Disunionist in the United
States who does not support him. But we
nre glad to say that this Disuuion monster
will be effectually crushed at the election
in November next.
Look Oct for Forgeries! Lincoln
has now been a candidate for several
months, nnd everything that malice could
rake np ngninst him has seen the light
through the Disunion papers. Whatever
comes hereafter aflVctiug him in nny possi
ble way, should be ropnrded with suspicion.
Ve expect we anticipate the most vil
lainous forgeries and falsehoods to be in
vented nnd put in circulation here just on
the eve of election. That has been done
heretofore, and we have no reason to think
that it will uot be done now. " The Cre
tans are alienys liars!"
Exflaised. It is said that the reason
why the Democrats call the Republicans
" black," Li, that the Republicans are in
favor of keeping the negroes black, while
the Deoaocrats wish to turn tbem
as possible.
f It is said that several bags of mail
matter are lying at post offices on the daily
mail route the postmasters being too neg
lectful to deliver them to the sUge-drivirs.
A new Tostal Ajent will attend to such
postmasters soon.
