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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

who expect friends in the coming immigra

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.
