The oWondinjr Si-niilors, lix in numlicr,
relumed lo lliin pluco on Siindny t reniiijr,
in coiumtiy with Monlicr, who, when lie
found the Lr-giblntiire wan liki ly to od-
journ without doinjr nnythinjr, ami thus
throw the rnpoiuibility of the neglect
which the country it auffirinjr upon the
Dreikinridjreni, made haute to secure the
pri'Hcnce of Ills tools for tho purpose of
siiving Iiih party from nitnihilution at the
cominjr cli ction. Tho Semite did not meet
till 2 o'clock on Monday, and did nothing
inoro except to rrud the whole of the jour
nal nnd adopt it, nud to confirm the elec
tion of tbj ofiiccrs, which was done unani
mously, the Bretks vntinjr for Daniels and
Rini'orson a pretty Democratic record
that makes for them!! Iu fact, they acted
more like whipped curs than men, aud evi
dently felt completely humiliated.
To day the Senate met, and, after the
transaction of some business, reception of
the Governor's mcssajre, Ac, adjourned to
2o'clo k. The afternoon session was pro
ceeding; I had heard a whispering amomr
the knowing ones that a rocket was to be
discharged upon the floor, and in company
with a number had in anticipation repaired
to my plnco iu tho lobby. Some Senator
proposed to udjourn, but owing to tho re
ception of a message from tho House it
was withdrawn. After the message was
disposed of, Mr. McBride of Yamhill ruse,
aud, iiddressiug himself to the President,
iinnotiiicid that be had a resolution lo off. r.
7 ith a few prefatory remarks, lie read it,
uud passed it to the Clerk. He said that
the Li'iaslnture had been iu session for over
two weeks, and that it was well known
nothing linil been accomplished; it was
equally well known t lint the failure was
clinrgculilu to the absence of certain Si'iiu-
tors that much lime, had been wusted
uud expense incurred in consequence, uud
that hu desired to call iiion those Senators
for nn explanation. The resolution wus
then rend, nud, ns near as I remember, it
culled upon the runaways to appear ut the
bar of tlie benute to aiiswir fur a violation
of their duties and neglect of the public
business.
Kellv, the usurper, raised a constitu
tional question, but he wus soon s l need,
uud the resolution adopted every ruiiMtvny
voting in thu negative, except Mclteeny.
JSy this time the Jlouso adjourned, unit
the Senate lobby filled willi spectators,
ami then came the scene of scenes in len
itive history. 1 he runaways atosi ami
presenti d tli ir reasons lor ubseutiim them-
clvc8. One wetit away to prevent a fraud;
utintlier said he represented a Demo
cratic county, nnd felt that his constituents
would Hiti!y linn in defeating thu elect on
of u Culifoi'iiiit interloper bg ant means")
another " was opposed to tlio tleetion of
any ' Black Republican," nnd took this
method of preventing it," 4c. f'
llieir confessions having closed, M Urnle
presented it resolution, which was substan
tially us follows:
Resolved, That the nbscnee of brnntors
(naming them) was inexcusable and revo-
utiniiarv, was in violation of their lining
as Senators, uud meets the official condem
nation urn! censure of the Senate.
Thu mover of tho resolution proceeded
to flay the runaways, showing the disor
ganizing purposes of both them and their
musters, thu deep injury the State hud suf
fered both iu reputation and also in a firnu
cinl point of view. The sergeant-nt-nrms
having returned the warrant placed in his
hands for tho iipitreheusion of the members,
several of the runnwavs had denied its eor-
rectness, and said his charges were toor
.
much. Thu speaker wont on to Bhow hiiw
men could " strain at u gnut and swallow
a camel." by referring to tho fuct that the
absence of these very men hod cost the
Suite thousands of dollars, and yet tney
had the effrontery to complain of a petty
sergeant-nt-arms' bill, while he was trying
to bf ing them to their duty. The exposure
was too scathing to lie withstood, and the
old fellow who first made the objection im
mediately responded amidst roars ot laugh
ter that h " took it all buck 'l
Mr. M'Bride then told them that their
pretended excuses were but adding insult
to injury that much as they appeared to
despise Repuliltcuiis, they wonld yet have
to acknowledge their power tint 4hey
were equals iu all the privilege of citizens,
aud soon would be the superiors of them in
the Government. His speech wa free
from bitterness, but ' went home' on the
facts. The cowed nnd humiliated Bncks
essayed no reply. Tichenor followed in a
style characteristic, and proceeded to ek'n
(he immortal six. without mercy. When
he closed, the resolution was adopted by a
vote or 8 to 7 the runaways all voting
(which they had no right to do) against it.
The Breeks were mad, but said little. 1
don't blame them-moh a resolution on
the journals of the Semite is a disgrace
which can never be iff iced.
We shall probably now have some legis
lation. , Yours, Law.

natural life will be spent in meditating upon
tho uncertainly of political prominence nnd
the Ingratitude, of a people whom he bud
served with undying fidelity for the space
of seventeen days.
There are a few men who deserve, tho
grateful remembrance of ull the true-heart
ed Union-luving citizens of this State.
Th ro are also a few men who deserve the
reprehension and no doubt will be held in
utter cxerittion by all true Orrgonians,
Of these men I aim 11 have something to say
ut somo other time.
The night of the 2nd inst. tho greatest
enthusiasm prevailed at this place. The
Capitol Suxo Horn B.ind serenaded the
Senutors elect; quite a concourse of citizens
accompanied the baud. Short speeches
were loiulu by J. W. Xesinith, Col. Baker,
Drew, Tichonor, Harding, Muyes, and
others; shout after shout arose, demon-
stating thu satisfaction the citizens felt at
tho result of one day's work, Mr. Orover
was culled out bv the citizens who followed
the bund to thn residence of that honorable
gentleman. He very modesty declined
being a candidate for Senatorial honors:
thanked them kindly for the compliment
paid him nud withdrew his head from the
window through winch he hud thrust it.
Some resnluiious were offered In tho
Seiiato by Col. Kelly declaring that the
(senate had lost till confidence in its presi
ding officer and requesting him to resign; the
chair refused lo entertain them. At the
Dennett House last night Mr. Colby gave
the lie to dipt. T'Chrnor. Whereupon the
Captain struck him. The cause was the
election of U. S. Senutors. Todv.
A Model Mrantar la Jamra K. Kelly, Cm.
Ed. Akovs: While in Sulem last week,
or.o evening I strolled into tho Semite
chamber, where the committee appointed
to examine the contested election case be
tween Kelly uud Logan was in session.
Kelly, iu his own behalf, moved to change
the vote of a man from Logan to himself,
upon the ground that tho person named
had intended to vote for him (Kelly). He
argued earnestly ami lengthily iu defense of
thu sacred right of franchise nnd the duty
of respecting the intentions of voters, and
rend at least threo affidavits, besides a
decision of the Supreme Court, to support
his assertions und opinions. The commit
tee, however, refused to grunt his very
modest request, preferring to take tho poll
books, the record made ut the time by dis
interested men, rather thnn the dubious
recollections of a person half scot rwr.
After being informed by tho committee
that the vote should stand as returned, he
very gravely informed them that he had
another motion to make in relation to the
rote in question, viz: that it should be
stricken from the prill-books altogether, for
tho reason that the person alluded to wag
a foreigner, and hud no legul right to vote.
To prove this, ho brought both the law
and nn affidavit.
Hero the case stands; Colonel Kelly
wished first to have a vote changed from
Logan to himself; failing in thut, he under
took to prove that the vote was uu illegal
one, und had no right upon the poll-bonks!
Strange times these, when a man in Col.
Kelly's standing in society, and an aspirant
to the honorable and responsible position
of Senator of tho United States, should
openly strive to procure for himself illegal
votes. '
People of Clackamas nnd Wasco, ' stick
a pin here I " There is something rotten
in Denmurk." w.
Left thr Gas , Burxiko. The New
York correspondent of the ifobile Regis
ter relates the following:
Recently a gentleman returned from Eu
rojie; he hud been absent with his family
seven mouths. He paid his gas bill the
day he left, and ihe houso had not been
opened for seven mouths, and yet when it
was, the gas man to-ik a r. lu n from the
meter, and a bill was made out for $52.
Mr. Orinnoll went mid complained to tie
secretary, related the circumstances, aiid
threatened exposure of such a b ire-faced
robbery. He refused to pay the bill.
' Very well, sir,' said the secretary.
Mr. 0. went homo und told hia wife.
' Pav it, said she.
' Why so!' said he.
' Because, ' said she, 'the day we Ipft
New York, I bud to go buck to the house
for some article I had forgot. The win
dow shntters were fastened and I lit the
gas. The other day when we returned
I fnnnd it still burning.'
The bill was paid, for a steady gas
flame had been burning for seven months.
What Slavery Does. The bleingsof
the "d.vine" institution, ns it is sometimes
siicrilegionsly termed, are seen in Texa,
where house and crops are burned by the
enraged negrm-a, and the work charged
upon the whites. Tnen sns.iected parties
are seized and hung, or bnrned at the stake
by infuriate mobs, acting under me exeite-
-v t .
V''
And the worst feature of the whola affiir
is, that no mnrd sense seems shocked or
even aronsed by the announcement that
scores of suspected persons have been seiz
ed by the people and execuien. iou
tain the relations of master and slave, law
are inadequate and most be overturned,
and the bloody reign of "Jadze Lynch"
inaorfawted upon the crumbled fragment
of the Beocb. 5. F. Tmf$.
Siukom Francis, Esq. Some time since,
Delusion Smith stated in Ida Oregon Dun
ocrut, that S. Francis Esq., at present the
editor of the Oregouian, had h-ft Illinois
a defaulter to the Agricultural Society of
that State. Thu charge has found its way
buck to Illinois, and Is thus disposed of by
the State Journal, Tho Journal of Aug.
20, after copying a refutation of the slander,
proceeds to say:
" It is in reply to some most villainous
strictures upon our old friend Simeon
Francis, Esq., published in the Oregon
Democrat, a pam-r In the tiny and under
the thumb-nail uf that well known political j
sharper, Delusion Smith. We are glad to;
hava this opportunity of pronouncing the
remarks he makes in regard to Mr. Francis
a most unwarrantable and foul-mouthed
slander. As the Oregoniun states, Sir.
Francis wus for several years tho Corres
ponding Secretary of the initio's Agricul
tural Society, but thut he left hero a de
faulter, or in debt to the Society one cent,
is wholly untrue. This story was started
here, after Mr. Fruncis' departure for
Oregon, by an ephemeral sheet, called the
Independent, which after leading a sickly
existence by mentis of bluck-mailing practi
ces, winked out in debt to everybody. The
malicious fulseliooil wns promptly corrected
by the Stute Journal, and other newspapers
through thu West to be refieated it seems
now with additions ni) in Oregon. Wu
are pleased to add that Mr. Fruncis retains
the warm personal esteem and friendship
of his old acquaintances, not only here, but
all through tho atute, ana while they wish
him well where he is, would welcome him
buck to his old home with the most cordial
greeting."
CuiTtCAt. Posmox of United Italy.
The Paris Constitutinnm-I publishes a
letter from Turin, bearing the signature of
M. Qrniidgnillot, commencing us follows:
" Italy is now entering the most critical
period of her regeneration; henceforth she
.stakes on n single curd either her ruin or
her salvation. Engaged as she is iu the
path npou which she lias been thrown by
the expedition of Garibaldi, Italy will,
within two months, be either free and
completely independent, or Austria will
iisruin reign, ami this time from Messina to
Turin." Tho letter then details the course
of pnst events, and states that the nego-
I ... - . . I . i m I -

were unsuccessful, by reason of Garibaldi's
refusal to nrrest his course, nnd on account
of the enthusiasm prevailing throughout
Italy having paralyzed the measures which
Piedmont might otherwise h ive tukeu to
prevent further complication.
Thr " Fancy'' o tmr Presidency.
ThoTrny Times if the 25th of August, but we shall respect the Constitution nnd
snys: Yesterday morning, John Morrissty every Constitutional obligation,
received information that a Southern gen- Aud when this intent sliull becomo appn
tlemiin, stopping ut one of the Ito'elt at rent: when the bug l e ir of Federal inter-
Saratoga, was desTons of bett'ng $2,000 i
Hint Abraham Lincoln would not be the
next President. Morrissey, it is well known,
is a Democrat ; but he is also a man of
business nnd makes politics subservient to
his business interests. Entertaining the
opinion that $2,000 could not be made in
nny easier wny, Morrissey sent word to the
gentleman that he desred an interview;
nnd accordingly yi-stirday at 10 p. m., ti e
two met and after drawing n,i the term of.
the bet, the money was staked and placid ,
in the Imnds of Mr. Marvin, the proprietor
of the Marvin House, who deposited it in
the bank for safe keeping. Morrissey
wishes it understood that while he shall
vote for Douglas, ho considers Lincoln
certain of an election.
The Crops of Enoi.and. The wheat
crop of Great Britain is shorter than it has
been for years, and the old wheat on hand
will scarcely last nnttl the new ts ready lor
use. They miy exppct some supplies
from the Baltic nnd Black seas, but nt
high rates, as 100 square miles of that
fine wheat region have been devastated by
locusts. The crop in France is nlso short,
and prices have risen iu consequence.
The prospect for a corn crop, too, is very
poor; and in consequence of a small grass
crop and other causes, beef arisen to star
vation prices, and public meetings have
beon held in several towns, to enter into
agreement to abstnin from its use for the
present. The result of all this will be
great demand for breadstuff from the
United States, and conttq it-nt h gh prices.

The Sun Fruucisco Times of Sept. 22,
speaking in anticipation of the election ol
Baker and Nesmith, says:
" Baker aud Nesmith will le Senators

What a grent and momentous triumph
it will lie I Except the election of Lincoln
and Hamlin, there will be nothing achieved
of so much iiutioniil importance during this
campaign. A U. b. benutor is a greut

h. V. Baker. And Ins colleague,
though not a Republican, may be relied
upon as unalterably opposed to the slavery,
extending policy of tho slave-code De
mocracy. When the news of tho election of these
two men shall be fl.ished across the wires of
tho Eastern States, there is not a Republi
can, nny, not an Anti-Lecomptou Dem
ocrat, whose heart will not leap up with n
thrill of pleasure, nud tho cannon shall
boom forth the merry news from hill-top to
hill-top till the whole North Is aglow with
joy. The news will give new hope and
courage to the party cvrrywhere, nnd will
add thousands of rotes to Lincoln's majori
ty. Indeed it will bo a glorious event;
nnd may confusion overtake those who
would defeat so grand a consummation.
Tho election of Ctd. Baker after so long
nnd faithful service in the causa is but u
.just reward. Against odds, nnd n I most
against hope, he has laiiorea lor lite prin
ciples of Republicanism, nud there it a nat
ural justice in placing him among the first
minds of thn country, where ho can labor
effectually for this section of tho country
which hu has donu so much to politically
renovate nnd reform."
Wiiex wb Succeed, What Then?
Gov. Chaso of Ohio was serenaded lately
at Toledo, and in response to a welcome
speech, said, among other things:
" And when we succeed what then?
Shall we return evil for thu injustice nud
calumny to which Republicans have been
so continually subjected? No, gentlemen
no! wo will try to prove that the success of
a party may be the success of a whole
people; that the triumph of our cause is
compatible with tl 0 best interests of the
whole country; our triumph will pro to ns
just to every portion of it, and generous to
every person who bears the nnmo or an
American citizen. Shall we invade, in the
spirit of sectionalism, the rights of any
State?
No Republican dreams of it. Wo shnll
Istnythe extenson of Slaviry, certainly;
ference with the internal concerns of the
States, sliull be expelled from tho public
mind by an honest, patriotic. Republican
Administration who cun doubt I cer
tainly do not doubt that the days of our
old concord nnd mutual good-will will re
turn; that lim'er thn Constitution we shnll
find Tranquility, L:berty and Union? In
bringing about su-h happy results, you
may rest assured of my earnest co-operation.
In such a noble work I will go with you
us fur us the farthest."

our Navy-ynrds; nn imposing array of guns
is being concentrated at Vera Cinz; ex
presses hnve being running daily between
Bedford Springs nnd the Navy Depart

been telegraphed to return to Washington
for purpose of observation nnd perhaps re

sailing orders for the third time; and it is
quite possible Hint a last and desperate
effort will be shortly made to raise the cry
of " Mexico and Cubu," as the only watch

Party for the defeat of the Republicans.

What a DtsTiNcnsmo Bru-ErtnErr
Politician Thinks. Among the principal
speakers at a Bell-Everett rutitlcntioti
meeting nt Brunswick, New Jersey, on the
15th August, says tho Tribune, was tho
Hon, J. Morrison Harris, M, C, of Mary-
land. This gentleman spoke of the Repub
lican party und its Presidential cundidalo
with u common sense thut Is rare iu a
Southern politician. We quote:
" When Abraham Lincoln is elected,
what practical thing is he to do iu connec
tion with sluviry? 1 believe the first act of
his Administration wilt be to mitionulizo
the party, Ho will endeavor to strengthen
it South, and mnko it acceptable there.
1 Great applause from tho Republicans.
s there a Republican that would voto for
him if he didn't believe he wonld iiiuke his
Administration a National one? Why,
then, don't yoa nmku it tho party of thu
country before the election? 1 have mingled
in Congress for years with Republicans,
and I haven't heard tho Grst man of them
say thut they wero going to iutvifcro with
the institution of slavery.
Nobody who Isn't a fool can suppose
that President Lincoln will do anything in
connection with slavery in the Stutes where
it exists. There the Institution Is placed
beyond tho jurisdiction of the Federal Gov
ernment. But ho will use the power and
influence of tho Executive nrm to prevent
its extension Into the frea Territories of the
Union; and in this ho will only bo faithful
to tho spirit of tho Jefleiion orJinuuco of
1787. Mr. Harris is then right, both
when ho suys that the result uf Mr. Lin
coln's election will bo to fully nntional'za
the Republicnu party by giving it n stand
ing iu States whero it Is not now tolerated,
and also when lie declares that ho has no
fenrsofevil consequences from its success
iu tho present canvass. Indocd, this suc
cess is what patriotic men everywhere
ought to desiro uud to labor for. It will
tend, ns nothing else can, to settle the ques
tion of slavery extension, nud to rcmovo
that agitating element from our politics.
