Wo are Informed tlmt Mr. Garfield, who
plead tlio niii.10 of Douglm, during bit
apcech nt Lafayette few day ago, illuntrut
til the turning, Iwiiitings, tnJJdoubb-fuceJ
policy of tlia Breekiuridge Democracy by
the fullowinj anecdote: A boy was em
ployed by on old Yankee down cant to
hnrrow a very rooty piece of land. The
rootH wcro very annoying of course, and,
much to the axtonlnhroriit of the boy, they
kept " Hopping the burrow bottom side up"
no often that ho complained to the old
Yntikra tlmt it took him moro than half
tlio time to turn it back. Ilia employer
(cut him to the blui ksuiilh hhop, ond bad
the harrow filled with an extra aet of teeth
pointing upwards, no that when the har
row turntd over, tlio hoy could drive on
and keep harrowing. Mr. Garfield
thought this an excellent illustration of
Drcckiiiridge Democracy the one tide of
tlio harrow being Intended fur northern
roil, and the other title for Smtthtrn. We
think, our.iclf, that the double-geared thing
is a much butter illustration of the J)oitgla$
ticket with Doughit harrowing away In the
North on " Squatter Sovereignty," and
Johnson harrowing away in the South on a
" Shot Code."
To illustrute the two aides of the har
row, wo quote a few extracts:

Johnson' iiaiirowino soi tii
" It retnniiis now to consider tho ques
tion involved in tlio amendment proponed
by tlio Senator from Missi.-sppi (Mr.
Davis.) That qiifKtion in, whether it is the
tin I fi i Congress to guarantee to tho slave
holder who shall remove with his slaves
into tlio territory of tlio United Stales,
the undisputed enjoyment of his property
in them, to long as it continues to be a
Territory. Or, 'h other words whether the
inhabitants of a Ttrritory, Curing their
territorial romlition, luivo the right to
prohibit slavery theirin.
Tor tho purpose of thin question, It mnt
ters not where tho power of legislating for
tho Territory residis whether exclusively
in Congress, or jointly in Congress and the
inliubiliiiitH, or exclusively in the inhabi
tants of the Territory; the power is precise
ly the sumu no greater in tho hands ol
0110 than tho other. In no event, can the
slaveholder of I lie South be excluded from
srttliny in such Territory with his proi1-
lillTV OF KVKltY nKHCllllTION.
lint suppose tint riylil of legislation for
tlio Territory bo in its inhabitants, can
they prohibit Slavery? Surely not; and
for reason siniilur to those which thow
that Congress cannot." Johnson's speech
in the Senate, July "lh, ltUS.
Wo now quote, from a resolution Intro
duced by Johnson ut tho meeting of the
'Democratic convention held at Milledgc
ville, June 4th, 1800, after the Charleston
Convention had broken up, to show that
Johnson is running tlio sumo harrow in
18(10 that ho was geared to in 184S.
" Jietolred, That we re-aflirni tho Cin
cinnati platform, with tho following addi
tional propositions:
1st. That the citizens of the United
States luive an equal right to settle with
their proper!; of any kind, in the organized
Territories of the United States, ami that
under tho decision of tho Supremo Court
of the United Stutei in tlio cso of Died
Scott, which w recognize as tlio correct
exposition of the Constitution in this par
ticular, iiirf properly stands on tht same
footiny at all other descriptions of property,
and that neither Ve Ueneral Government,
M)lt ANY TKKUITOIUAL GOV
KKNMKNT, can destroy or impair the
right to slave property; that property of
nil kinds, slaves as well as any other species
of property, in tho Territories, stands upon
tho same equal nnd broad Constitutional
basis, and subject to like principles of r
cognition nd PllOTKCTlOX in the
LIMJISLATIVK, judicial and executive
departments of the Government."
Now we ore no friend to the Breckin
ridge " harrow," as every body knows
but if Mr. (JurficM, or any other man, can,
alter the most luborious searching of the
record", make up from the history of the
ltrei kinridgo faction, as complete a " bar
row with two tides" at we hare given
above, we will cheerfully print it for him.
Cobs Oregon it about to prove to be
a coru country. Somebody near Dayton,
raited aix hundred bushels of corn this
summer. We tnw a field of corn raised
by Mr. Copeland, near Esquire Dawsou'a,
io Yamhill county, whtch would compare
well with any cornfield in Illinois. It is
the old fashioned gourd teed, and hat now
been fully ripe, for several weeks. Mr.
Copeland told ns that bo would be able
to tall aboot thirty bonnets of teed com.
" There la prolmblr not one In a thou
land, North or South, who would not pre
fer anion with the loss of their favorite po
litical messurea, than tiiccesa with disunion.'
Goo. Whiteaker'l Menage,
Now, Governor, you shouldn't hare let
that leak out. It's all true, of course, but
thoo a Democratic Governor Is exacted to
be too shrewd to tty It. Jeff Davit,
Brown, Ktiitt, Yancey, and Jo Lane, with
many other leaden of your party, are
threatening Disunion In case the Republi
can! triumph, and thlt threat being intend
ed to frighten Northern slinks into voting
the Democratic (or Disnnlon) tckct,
of whut force will their Disunion howl be,
if Democratic Governors and other sec
tional fuiict'oiiurits tell the peoplo that nine
hundred and ninety-nine Democrats even
"prefer union with tht Ion of their favor
ite political measures, than tuecett with
disunion" that is, they prefer Lincoln and
Union, to Breckinridge and Disunion?
To use a comparison you probably under
stand, don't you know you ought to danco
to the tune your leaders fiddle?
It strikes us, Governor, that you much
resemble " Snug the Joiner," who, in per
sonating a lion in the democratic play of
Pyramut and Thisbe, got off the following
salutatory:
You, ladies, you whose ge nit hearts do frar
Tli smallest moiittrbua nioue lh.il creeps on
flour.
May now, perchance, bold quake and tremble
Hero,
Wlieu liun rough In wildest rage itolli far.
Then know, that I imt Snug ilw Joiner am.
No lion fi ll, nor else no lion'a d im."
To all of which Theseus very properly
responded" A very gentlo beast, but a
goose for hit discretion."
The Governor mnket his party a " very
gentle beast," but Jeff Davis will pronounce
him " a goose in discretion."
Coox's ExrREss tr akp at 'km aoai.n.
We notice that Coon's Express at Ilosuburg
hut been revived. During its first exist
ence, wo showed that it was a genuine
Garrisonian Abolition sheet. We arc now
glad to see that Coon's Express has be
como somewhat modified in its tone in
stead of going for Garrison, it now goes
for Gcrrit Smith, who is, we believe, an
Abolitionist of a somewhat milder type
than Garrison. Coon's Express says tlmt
if Congress should pats a law requiring us
to elect a Congressman in November, Ger-
rit Smith should be imported to run for
the office As Gcrrit Is now trying to de
feat tho Republican parly, by ruuuiug with
Breckinridge for the Presidency, we think
Coon's Express ought to be satisfied to let
Gcrrit operate where he is. Gcrrit is
merely a theoretical amalgamution'st, whihi
the Oberliu Smith is practically sound.
If Coon's Express wishes to run one of the
Smith family for Congress, why not run
Delusion f Delusion and Gcrrit are both
negro-equality men, both haters of Repub
licanism, and both Disuuionisls. Gcrrit
has done liltlo us yet, however, but to
theorize on matters which lio close to the
hearts of nil Democrats, while Delusion
has been ' pegging1 awuy to some purpose.
Let Delusion bo run, by all means.
What says Coon's Express ?
Not So. The Disunion fanatics who
support Breckinridge are whining terribly
about the election of Col. Baker to the
U. S. Senate. They say the Republicans
in electing a ucw comer to a high office,
have done precisely what they blamed the
Democrats for doing when they elected
Stent. That is not so. We faulted them
for picking up a new comer that nobody
kneie any thing about a mere ndventurer,
with no political record, no repute, and
with scarce talent enough to mako a re.
spcctuble justice of tho peace in a one-
horse town.
Suppose such a man ns Broderiek had
come here from California, and the Demo
crats hud nominated him for Congress in
three days after his arrival does any one
suppose that wo would have objected to
him bceauso ho was a new comer? Brod
eriek, like Baker, was a mnn who had a
national reputation wo knew all about
him, and wo would a thousand times rather
have seen Broderiek elected to Congress
from Oregon, three dnyt after his arrival,
than to have seen any Democrat elected
who bas lived here for ten years. Col.
Baker, though a new comer, is by no
moons unknown. Tlio blacks of course
want something to whine about, and they
might as well snivel about this as any
thing else.
US' At the Republican meeting in La
fayette last week T. J. Dryer stated that
he and Logan had both requested Col.
Raker to come here and run for the U. S.
Senate. Dryer read a portion of a letter
written to Col. Baker by David Logan,
requesting him ( Baker) to hasten back
from Sun Francisco, to watch the "shuflle
and cut of tht cards," aud telling him that
the game (the Senatorship) was in his
(Baker's) owu hands. He never asked
him to come, and we never favored bis
election, provided we could get an old
Oregouian who was fit for the place, but
we are now not only satisfied with his elec
tion, but we rejoice at it.
Grain. So many farmers have been
engaged during the month of September iu
threshing the present season's heavy crop,

Our next pAM-r will hardly reach most
of our subscribers before the election. We
want to tay to such a few words.
The moat linjiortatit Presidential election
Hint hut tuken place within many yean,
will occur within the next eleven days.
The greut luteresti of Oregon aro In
volved In that election:
The question of the Pacific Rail-Road;
The Daily Overland Mulls;
The protection of Oregon emlgranU by
a line of military posts;
The payment of tho War Debt;
The enactment of the Homestead Law;
The putting a stop to the aggressions of
Slavery;
Tho preserving of the freo Territories for
Free Labor.
We regard the election of Adraiiam
Lincoln as beyond question. There is no
Intelligent man of any purty who doubts
this. Will it not be well for Oregon will
it not be belter for our people if Oregon
should cabt her vote for the Republican
candidate? This question it submitted to
the consideration of all patriotic nion all
men who lure Oregon more than party.
Every man't vote on tho first Tuesday
of November next will tell on the destinies
of our beloved Oregon for years to cornel
The Prnprct Abroad.
Lincoln will corry nil the Eastern Free
States. Their votes will elect him. Breck
inridge will enrry North Carolina, South
Carolina, Arkansas, Louisiunn, Florida,
and Texas. Bell will bo likely to carry
Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, Maryland,
Kentucky, and has tho best chance of car
rying Mississippi, Alabama, and Delaware.
Missouri vibrates between Breckinridge
and Bell. California and Oregon will go
either for Lincoln, Breckinridge, or Dou
glas. Wo do not think Douglas certain of one
electoral vote but he bat bis satisfaction:
he will kill off the Disunion candidate
Breckinridge.
Ever Republican Hhonld Vote!
Thnt Republican realizes but little the
important position In which ho is placed by
his God, and little of bit high duties as an
American citizen, who will ueglect to cast
his vote nt the coming election. Nor does
his duty end there. Ha should sco to it
that every Republican within the sphere of
his influence performs ulso this important
duty.
Rfpcbi.ican Mektino in Portland.
Last Saturday night tho Republicans had
a meeting ut their Club Room in Portland.
We lenrn that tho Room was literally
crowded with people. J. II. Mitchell,
Esq., led off In a handsome introductory
speech, aud was followed by W. C. John
son, Esq , of this city, In whnt wos regard
ed ns a capital effort. This is the first po
litical speech ever made by Mr. Johnson
in Portland, and it gave decided satisfac
tion. We have heard it remarked that
1 Carey' will mako one of Oregon's tallest
men.
Tho Republicans of Portland ore in
capital spirits, ready fur tho election.

83T Jo Lane wrote to Moshor to stave
off the Senatorial election till after the
Presidential election he wanted another
chance nt tho Senatorship. Douglas now
has " Joe's head in a bag." Smith's isn't
worth bugging.
WT We are becoming incensed. A
California paper speaks of one of our can
didates on the Breckinridge ticket as Dr.
W. D. Dough-litt, nnd asserts that ho is
known in oil tlmt region under thnt eu
phonious nnmo. If that bo the fact, votes
given to D. Win. Douthit will not stand
good in law.
3r In Yamhill Co., Dr. Dough-titt's
speech commenced with Adam nnd left off
with Jo Lane. There were some inter
mediate characters mentioned J mint Mac
cabeus nnd Josephus. Dr. Dongh-titt
should send to tho Aberdeen College for
the degreo of LL. D.
J5 We Kara that the Hon. Jacob
Woodsidcs, of Salem, has just returned
from a visit to Illinois, and gives it as his
opinion thnt that State will go for Lincoln
by 25,000 majority. Woodsidcs is for
Douglas himself. He says the enthuisnsm
iu Illinois for Lincoln is unbounded.
ttj The Advertiser has a low fling at
the Argus. Does the Advertiser rec

Advertiser understand?
fcS- Mr. J. M. Kirkpatrick, of Albany,
made a very excellent speech in this city
last Wednesday. The crowd was not a
very large one, owing to the inclemency of

a nation of a ten years' growth, aro fnt
becoming civilized. Not only the ruder

rious mechanical contrivances of our mines
and farms, but literature and the fine arts
are taking unto themselves a local habita
tion and a unme in our midst. Stationery
fullowt closely upon the hcele of refinement,
and few persons uro aware of the extent
and importance of this branch of our trade.
The word Stationer, originally, .ignifitd
Bookseller, from his occupying a stand or
station, but os tho publication nud sale of
books increased, it was separated from that
of the other, tho name Stutioncr remaining
with the vender of Paper, Ink, Pens, &v.
At thit day, oud in our country, a Book
and stationery store is a perfect tin rinometer
of the nature, extent, and quality of the
community. Wherever you n n-ut,
well kept establishment of this kind, with
a gentlemanly anil Intelligent proprietor,
you may be ture you ore in the midst ofnn

people.
About two yean ago Mr. Albert L.
Bancroft, brother of the eminent Publisher
and Bookseller, conceived tho idea of
taking Stationery and making it a sr p irate
and distinct branch of trade, devoting his
best energies to that alone. No house ex
clusively Stationery had ns yet been started
upon the Pacific Coast. Accordingly af
ter having spent ono year in preparation,
the requisite arrangements were consumma
ted for receiving regular supplies from the
Mills nnd Manufactories of the United
States, England, France and Germany,
and the enterprise launched in San Fran
cisco, early in 1800, under the name of A.
L. Bancroft k Co., Mr. II. II. Bancroft
becoming junior partner In the firm.
So fur It has proved a decided success,
there not being o town of any consequence
in California, Oregon, Washington or Uluh
which does not contain one or more cus
tomers of this house. Closely allied to the
interests of this new firm, stands the old
house of II. II. Bancroft k Co. with its
large worcrooms crowd d to overflowing
with books in ever department of literature.
The customers cf theje two houses derive
great advantages in their being able to
make up their entire stixk from them, and
by each department of their business being
carried on separately nnd upon its own
merits. We heartily say, patronizu t!ie
new house of A. L. Bancroft k Co.; they
deserve it.
Betiikl College. Tho Institution at
Bethel, Polk county, is about to enter np
on a new era in its history. It will be
opened as a College, with all the regula
departments nnd professorships, on the
third Wednesday iu November. Lev
Rowland, A. M., Lite a graduate o
Bothuny College, Virginu, nnd a most e
timable man, will be inaugurated us Pre
dent, and Dr. Hudson, A. M., with Pi
fessor Hall, the present accomplished
teachers, will bo regularly installed as the
heads of their respective departments.
They have now an excellent set of chemi
cal nud philosophical apparatus, with a
library of several hundred volumes, an in
vestment which places tho Institution on
an even footing with the most advanced
Institution in tho State. Wo havo been
familiar with the history of this Institution
since it was first set on foot through the
indefatigable exertions of a few such noble
souls os G. O. Burnett, Amos Harvey,
nnd Dr Warriner, and sinco the day that
it was determined to establish an Institu
tion of learning at Bethel, we have seen it
struggling onwards and upwards, through
storm and sunshine, till, contrary to the
predictions of many, it has become nil
entire success. The Institution com
mends itself to tho consideration of such
as are interested in the cause of education
every where in the State, nnd parents and
guardians who arc looking for ti dcsiruhlv
location for those under their charge, can
not do better than by placing them iu the
paths of science which have been so care
fully prepared by the philanthropists iu
and around Bethel.
We raised a few of the celebrated
nubbnrd Squashes this year. They are
small, light green, ond have a hard shell.
They are said to keep well through the
entire winter. The squash is very nice
indeed our better half pronounces it the
best squash she ever tasted. The seeds
were sent to us last spring by our friend
J. N. Bunker, of Schenectady, New York.
We intend to distribute a few seeds among
our Republican friends. Of conrse Jo
Luue supplies the Democrats with squash
seed, and " beans."
t& We hear that the Oberlin amal
garantionist is threatening to migrate with
his master Joseph to Bunkum, South Cor
olins, after Lincoln is elected. Delusion
and Joseph are pretty will satisfied that
" going out to stand," will not pity in the
North; They think they can make a bet
ter "stand" in a nigger country. We
don't doubt it.
Poor Stan d. Mc I teeny and his brother
fanatics who " went out to stand" in order
to defeat the election of Col. Baker, are
now satisfied that they made rather a
poor Hand, even for inch " ornary jack
asset." We have received letten from dif
ferent counties, extracti from which will

' SAi.rx, Oct. 22, 1800.
En. Anout l Having been attracted by
notice about town that Mr. Kirkpatrick,
of Albany, Intended to speuk to tho Re
publicans and peoplo generally tint even
ing, I repaired to the court house to tec
and hear what was going on, I wat
ngrccubly surprised ond much edified
tho entertainment of tho evening. The
speaker, Mr. K., It n carpenter by trade.
He is a lonnd Republican, nnd hot no
quuinted himself well with the history of the
Government. Hi positions were forcibly
and well maintained. His remarks were
well received by Ms auditors, which con
listed of tome eighty or ono hundred per
sons. The sluvcry issue was tho principal topic
discussed. A pleasing contrast was drawn
between the founders of our Government
and the Repablicun parly their aims and
objects, it was maintained, were identical.
Tho pence that followed the compromise
of 18.10, nnd which existed up to 1854,
and which ullnyed oil strife on the sul.jcct
ur slavery, wus highly extolled, nnd n well
merited rebuki was given to the disturber
of those relations.
The policy f tho Disunion cand'd.itcR
wns fully cx osjd, nnd the result of their
notions deprecated. The speaker's eulogy
upon Col. Baker's abilities was received
with marked attention, and a enstigntion Is
promised tho murderers of the Pulriot-Re-publicun,
D. C. BnouEntcK, nt bis hands
when occasion offers.
It sounded well to mo to henr Republic
an principles so boldly proclaimed in the
Capital of Oregon. Two years ago there
was scarcely a baker's dozen in this comity
There wns a 'Baker's eleven' thcro this
yeur, you bet. who cntertuined Republic
an sentiments, much less made them known.
Marion is becoming nroused nnd will give
n good account of herself next November.
Front present indications I draw this
one conclusion, thnt as the great political
stars arc declining nnd "ubout to set, day
light is near at hand. So moto it be.

Heward's Endorsement or Lincoln.
Mr. Seward is out stumping it for Mr.
Lincoln, nnd doing such service for the
cause ns no other man can do. Iu Detroit
he made a nent little speech from he bal
cony of Senator Chandler's house. Speak
ing of the difficulty nt first of gaining tho
attention and confidence of the masses to
hear Republican doctrine, he soys.
" The peoplo have become nt liist atten
tive, willing to be convinced, and satisfied
of tho soundness of the Republican faith.
It has been a task. We had first to reach
the young through the pnjiidiecs of the
old. I hnve never expeett d my own ago
and generation to relinquish the prejudices
in which they and I were born. I huvo
expected, as lias been tho case heretofore
in the history of mankind, that the old
would remain nnconvertajl, and that the
great work of reformation and progress
would rest with the young. That has
come at hist, for though the Democratic
party bate denied the ascendency and ob
ligation of the ' higher law,' still they bear
t siiiiiony to it in tin ir lives if not in their
conversation. (Langhtcr.) Democracy
w4il die in obedience to ' higher law,' and
Republicans are born, and will be born,
and none but Republicans will bo born in
the United States after the year of 1860.
Laughter nnd applause. The first gen
eration of the young men of the country,
educated in the Republican faith, has ap
peared in your presence by a strong and
bold demonstrative representation to-night.
It is the young men who constitute the
Wide Awake force. Ten years ago, and
twenty yean ago, the Wide Awake force
were incapable of being organized. Four
yean ago it was organized for the dis
traction of the country and the Republican
cause. To-day the young men of the
United States are for the first time on ti e
side of freedom against slavery. Great
applause. Go on, then, and do your
work. Put this great cause into the krep
