Tho only mKt thnt Die Administration
mrl clung to in defeating the wishes of
the popular voice wai In controlling the
U. S. Semite. Tho result of the electiou
of liokir mid Neamitli will probably tlo
the rote of the next Senate, even allowing
nil the Southern rwiiatori to act ti unit.
If Kansis la admitted Into the Uolon, a it
probubly will be, we shall hare thirty-four

Hold, Thompson of Xcw Jersey, and Lath

publicans will have 81. California will send
either a Republican or Douglas Democrat
in pluce of 0 wiu. Douln and Xcsmith
will (if California scuds a Douglas Demo
crat) raise the Douglas strength to three.
Those Senator all huvinjr been elected by
the help of Republican votes, will no doubt
nit with the Republicans in defeating the
disunion schemes of the salamanders..
These, with the Republican strength, will
make 3i rotes, and tie the Senate.
Tho election of linker and Kesmilh was
secured by one rote In our Legislature, aud
that member of the Legislature was elected
by a majority of two. Let those - two
voters In Linn county remember thut they
have tied the LT. S Senate. Who will say
after this, thut " it isn't necessary for me
to go to the election"?
B&T There are said to be niuuty thous

There uro generally suid to be ten appli

The Boston Herald (Douglas) rejoices
over the downfull ol the Drcckinrdgo
fuction after this wise
"The people are giving to the traitors
their Just reward. Dialer of Pennsylvania,
liright and Filch of JndiiiuiH, Luna and
Smith of Oregon, Green of Missouri, and
all those Seuutors who have mudo war
upon Stephen A. Douglas and the great
Democratic party, will be made to bite
the dust."
Oh, yes, the people aeem determined to
hurl from power all such Northern Sena
tors as have been gnashing their teeth
ag'iinst (lie Union, against Honest Abe,
and uguinst Stephen A. Douglas. These
fellows must all " bite the dust." Hut then
there's tho ' Little Giant himself, and Pugh
bis only sheet anchor in the U. S. Semite
what about them? Doesn't it look as
though the " people" had assigned to them
the same horizontal position in the " dust"
that Lunc, Digler, and other Democratic
Seuutors will soon tuke? I
It looks to us as though tho people had
determined that while Lane mid Diglerurc
down " biting" tho dust, Douglas and
Pugh must lie down along side of them and
"gum it," if nothing more.

Denied. Just on the eve of the Presi
dential election, wo received Yancey or
gans rrom California, stating, upon what
appeared to bo pretty good authority, that
Douglas was privy to the iniquitous schemes
of tho Lcompton convention that he
knew and approved their plans and that a
letter was now in possession of a lady
written by Judgo Douglas to Cuntllebo.x
l ulhoini, not only npproving, but counsel
ing nnd advising the very course by the
Lccoiiipton party which he afterwards so
violently opposed. Wo paid no attention
to it, us wo couldn't think it was possible
ilwtlt wus true. Tho Yanceyitcs have
pursued Judgo Douglas with a hclUi
ferocity that has stopped short of no con
jectured or fabricated falsehood. Douglas
nnd his friends havo been made to taste
the sweets of that kind of warfare, which
tho wholo Democratic party has hitherto
employed against Republicanism. Wo see
thut Douglas denies ever having written
tho letter charged to his account, nnd we
nro glad to know that the responsibility of powder, uml tier eyes almost put out.
mo wholo wrong will rest upon the dis
unionists who fabricated tho falsehood, und
their tools who gnvo circulation to it.

Tho Kansas troubles nre much exagger
