Tho Democratic Parly end It Ol paurntt.
Since th first organization of the Demo
cratic party in Oregon, in January 1832,
there has been, at all time?, ami on all occa
sions in the Territory, a combination intent
upon its overthrow and defeat; a review of
the efforts of individuals, anil combinations,
under the variou fascinating names which
they hate seen proper to a-sume for the ac
complishment of their cherished object, while
it reflects but little credit unon the actor?,
forms an interesting subject for the contem
plation of an honest and intelligent commu
nity at the present crisis.
There has been no attempt at seoresy, in
trigue, or mystification on the part of the
democratic organization. The conventions
and cauensses, admitted by all parties to be
an essential mode by which to secure the
joint efforts and cooperation of men enter
taining sentiments in common, have b.-en
held openly and at mid day, and ail permit
ted to witness the usages, and listen to the
sentiments expressed. The principles adopt
ed hare been the result of sober reason, and
firm conviction f they have Wen published
to the world, openly avowed and defended,
and their opponents invited to a free and
open discussion of their picrits. . .
A bold aud manly exposition of unwaver
ing principle?, presented and defended in a
rpirit of justice, has won the applause of the
people, and makes the democratic party to
day the dominant party, of not only Ore
gon, bat of the nation.
The unity of sentiment, and of action ex
isting among us, has been a prolific source
of envy and-jealousy with those whose only
mission has been to destroy what they could
not build np, and has formed the bais of
their absurd aud ridiculous charges about
"Cliques" and combinations for the purposes
cf individual aggrandizement. While the
action of the Democracy in Oregon has been
substantially as wc have stated, how has it '
been with our opponents?
The first Democratic Territorial Conven
tion assembled at Salem, on the 1 1th of
April, 1S53, and was a fuil and fair repre
sentation of those who professed that faith.
A candidate wss nominated for delegate to.
Congress, and the cardinal doctrines of the
party openly avowed in a platform. Our
opponents taking advantage of what they
conceived to be a prejudice against any or
gaolration, placed Skinner in the field with
out any platform, or any avowal of princi
ples, and dubbed him with the popular and
catch-penny title of "Peoples' candidate."
Bound by neither platform or principle, Mr.
Skinner was permitted not only to pander
to the prejudices of the people, but to advo
cate different doctrines' in different localities
without fear cf contradiction. "Tie peo
ples party," withoct distinction of party (1)
organized in the different counties, and found
a venal and unscrupulous defender in the
Oregonian. The people in their majesty
- sent the trickster howling back in disgrace,
and bkmner to bis former and well merited
obscurity.
After a conple of j-ears of crazy denunci
ation of party organization, the Oregonian
and Airgoose editors entered into aud fra
ternized with a secret organization which
asked of its members nothing but an oath to
blindly carry out its behests, concocted in
coirat nfYi ra TKa r1amAAPav nrain m i- f"
on the Ufa of April, IS55; selected their
candidate, and re-enunciated their principles,
while the individuals who had been so loud
in their denunciation of organization, simply
met at Corvallis on the ISth of 'April, se
lected a candidate, aud resolved that the
only platform they would adopt was "Giue-
ral Gaines agin the world."
The virtuous and anti-organization gen
tiemcn or tbc two years previous, were
bound by horrid, hateful and accursed oaths
to support the nominees, and their unprind
pled leaders revelled in the brightest" antici
pations of power. The democracy, howev
er, stack to their principles, appealed boldly
to the intelligence of the people, and tri
umphed by an overwhelming majority.
Again in 1S57, the various defeated fac
tions of the previous five years, gathered np
their scattered remnants, and tried to pre
sent a bold front under a crazy leader, bnt,
like their predecessors, were driven like chaff
before the democracy, and experienced nn ig
nomitiions d4cnt.
If the hypocritical denunciations of o
litical Yrgauizations nnd caucuses fo freely
indulged in by tho opposition, required any
refutation beyond their midnight oati-, it
was to be found mid fen in tin) lite Ut-pub-licait
convention nt this place. The mere
offering of n resolution to support its nomi
nees, was condemned with pretended horror
by a convention, three-fourths of whoso mem
bers had previously given in a similar adhe
sion nndcf all the solemnity of an oath, and
to give the lie direct to their assertions, at
night held u secret caucus, iu which the most
corrupt propositions were freely discussed.
If the democratic mrty should imitnto their
example, no terms of reproach would be
siifthient for the expression of thvir holy
horror, and virtuous condemnation.
While the Democracy of Oregon has stood
Orm in defence of their principles, and -today
occupies a proud position, they have the
consolation of witnessing a division in their
old enemy's camp. They witness tho specta
cle of a portiou assembling nt Sulcni under
the cognomen of Republicans, while the re
mainder ftsfrmbtc at Eugene ns "Xatimah."
We recognize in both those assemblages the
uld kuownolhing, free negro prostitute, em
bellished by a new six shilling dress.
Tho past history of the democratic party
is the strongest guarantee of its honesty aud
devotion to principle; it, like other orgoui
zations, has not been entirely free from the
disorganizing influences of camp followers,
and mercenary soldiers of fortune, who are
ready to join nnd leave, or leave and join, as
success or inisfoi t nue predominates.
this U illustrated by n few of the parti-
zans in the present Eugene movement.
While the great democratic party never pre
tended to have offices to accommodate oil
its members, the road has been hit open to
fair competition among those who umpired
to place. A few of the unsuccessful, who
wt re too Juipalient to wait for promotion,
have pono to the 'Nationals,' and on the
Crst Mouday in June will experience the
merited doom if tho traitor, while the Dem
ocratic party will steadily pursue its onward
luarcli to victory.

Secretary Mason leaves for tho Atlauti

Your democratic convention has done no

RosEiJL-iw, March 27th, 1353.
Dear Statesman A "National Coiircti
tion" met here to-day, f ud it was decided!
a rich affair. Two preciats were partially
rei-rcseiilcd. but the committee on creueii
liuis" reported thirteen members entitled to
sJhts-. Six out of the number were pick
up around tho streets, mid induced to "go
in" with a few elasses ol whi.-Ky.
They thcu tried the complimentary dodge
electing prowiineut democrats to represent
. . t i i . : o
the vacant precincts uui suececueci sun i
worse. One of the complimented came
forth and openly deuouueed the convention,
and told thetu "he wanted nothing to do
with twir kind of democracy that goed
old fashioned democracy was good enough
for him," mi l intimated that the compiiiiKut
of a dcieg. ile-ship iu that convention was a
very questionable one.
'i'iu-y Qnaily organized by the t-lectioti of
a Mr. Gassiy ca president, wiio iuiiueiiatt-ly
branched off' in u very gassy speech, which
hud evidently been carefully prepared in an
ticipation of Drew's nomination for Gover
nor. The change -.of programme came too
late, or tiie eSl'ort hud cost too much labor
to be suppressed, aad tli2 speaker fouud se
rious cause' of grievance that tin (;iartcr
inaster General had not; transmitted iho sev
euteeu cubic fet of documents pertaining
to the Ineliau war to Gaisiy & Co., instead
of the war department at.Wus-hiugton.
One Asahd Bash (do yon know-him?) was
also au object of Ga.-sey's auiuiadvers-ioti,
aud was cited as -"another melancholy in
stance of humau depravity." .
V'Tho numerous aud intelligent body that
I see before me," waa frequently alluded to,
and it was evident that Gnsly had antici
pated a rush ol "thotiiassfs" to iitn n ins
ooiient (lenuueiatiims. Cues Irotn the oi'i
mnkers of "give 'cm Ii !" "that s the
tiilk," ir:e , nicoiirnged tiie ora'or, nnd he fi-
y tin k his sent umid a trctn'-ndous nud
ill 'uisi.tsiiC Sllrin-e, '
The i-hclioti of delegates to the "Eiigenc
inoveineiit" was next iu order, anil although
wo of thoso fleeted declared positively that
they could not spend lime lo go, tiny were
induced lo have their names used to cive the
thing a plnviible appearance.
A motion to adjourn was interrupted by
one of the delegates elect, who, holding on
lo the table for support, e imiiciiited the fol
lowing sentiment; "Hold out .Now I want
you all to uudcrsl:Mi(l that 'tiioug'i rve tak-
ii a 'hand in this. 'ere convention, that I
lou't consider it bintlin', and I'm goia' to
ote for who I d n please." He was ev
idently a first-class ludtcr.
I he secretary rii gentleman w ho bos had
serious doubts heretofore as to his citizen-
hip, and ended by swearing to n double
resilience tin n introduced a preamble and
resolution to the following putport:. ,
v hereas, we believe that great corrup-
ion exists among the present leaders of the
democracy in Oregon, (?) and whereas, we
believe ourselves to be yery pure nnd free
from the stu of holding office, and whereas,
we have no objection to be submitted to the
test of temptation, therefore
Resolved,, 1 hat we most etiiphaticslly ue
tiounce the Sah m "Cli ku," and nil persons
holding office with , the exception of Frei
dent Buchanan, to whom we hereby Lender
our cordial tupport, and hope to be support
el in return.
The resolution was adopted, though it
male the republicans wince, nnd I noticed
that one, who is a violent Doiilasite, ha
had the "giant's" picture framed lately, and
hai publicly denounced Lnchanan, i-a;d aj e
in a very weak treble.
liiere are about (;fty unl tonal s in this
county, but there are no democrats among
hem, and the doctniie that democrats havi-
a light t-j vote end act with the opxisition
and still retain t'r.ir standing, Cuds no tid
lerints in the party. Efeti the honest por-
)!! of the republicans see clearly that it is
oiny a scheme to foist a f :r cormorants eitt
hi . by their voles, and one of t;ie Apple
ati S, who is u iL-Jegale to tha Sa'ein cotl

Estimate of Crops per Acre ox the
GnorND. Wheat, rye, oats or barley can be
measured by the following rule, which will
give as safe a basis to figure upon as can be
found ni;lc-r such circumstances. So says
an exchange: Frume together four light
sticks, meaAiriag exactly sv fue-t square ia
sii c, and with tiiis iu band, walk into the
tioht and select a spot of fair averaga yield,
and lower the frame square over us many
heads as it wiil inclose, and shell out the
heads thus inclosed ct'.rei'ully, and weigh the
grain. It is fair to presume that the pro
duct will be the 43.5CQt!i. part of en acreV
produce. To prove it, go through the field
and make ten or twenty similar calculations
aud estimate by the mean of the whole num
