and confident opinion of the country that it

beyond the power of the legislature to dis

Jj prove unfortunate, and ill-advised, as re
spects both their real, or pretended fouuda
Xioo. The people, ia accepting the constitution,
have uttered their desire to be relieved from
vexatious agitation respecting the temporary
aeat of government and they are far from
wishing its submission in June next, or at
aay time, until it is submitted under the
constitution, once for all, and to some pur
pose. They want neither the trouble or ex
peaae of an election to relocate the tempo
rary seat of government. . Of all the meth
ods of disturbing it, we believe a submiasioa
to the popular vote to be the most obnox
ious to the electors. If faction, spite, hope
of party advantage, or personal consequence,
ova of discord and strife; if any or all of
these vill remove the temporary, and merely
nominal capital, let them do it by direct ac

eointry less, than by requiring a popular

For one, we are most thoroughly naiuea
ted with this seat of government tarmoil,
stirred ap, of late years, most generally .by
the enemies of the Democracy, for the par
pose of creating distrusts and divisions.
Aad, we shall heartily rejoice when able to
chronicle its settlement for twenty years.
Whtrt it shall be settled, we care little, if
the interests of the State shall have been
duly regarded.
" The university, and the various asylums
and institutions which the State must some
day have, are required by the constitution
Co be located with the capitol, and, alto
gether, they will require a goodly number of
acres for sites; these, the State cannot af
ford to purchase at very extravagant rates,
if at ail; indeed, for some years to come,
the construction of the capitol ' will be a
heavy burden. There are numerous paper
towns ia Oregon, and sites where not even
paper towns have been located, quite as eli
gible for real town-sites, as are any f the
rival candidates for the capital; there are
some of them ia which the State can obtain
a donation of 160, or 320 acres of land upon
which to erect a capitol, university, and the
other buildings of the Stste; and from the
proceeds of sale of lots ia which, a fund suf
ficient to construct a capitol could be realis
ed. Michigan built ber state-bouse ia that
way, receiving a donation of 160 acres of
lead twenty miles from the river, ia the very
wilderness. The public buildings called
about them a town, and the State, dividing
its surplus lands into town-lots, sold them
or a faad ample for the erection of a capi
tol. Other States, we understand, hare in
whole or in part, done this. Is soch a coarse
mot practicable ia Oregon? If it is, let us
adopt it. When the seat of government

interests of the State should be consulted,

A Maul Cttla a aa a Happy Mew Year I"
We wish yoa, dear readers, one and all, a
merry Christines and "a kxppy New Year,
and many joyous retsrns cl the season, "
. Before your eyes shall have fallen upon
these col am ns, Christmas, with Its merry
meetings and its merry greetings,' will have
come and departed ; the Yule-log will have
blazed, and burned, and died out, and turned
to ashes, upon many a hearth: households
I long sundered will have been reunited; pa
rents and children, brothers and sisters, driv
en by the pressure of circumstances, or ne
cessity, widely apart, will have met once
more around the hearthstone of the "old
bouse at home," to exchange the greeting;
of affection, perhaps for the last time; the
hearts of the children will have been rejoic
ed by the accustomed visit of the good
"Christ-Kindlein," who from his capacion
stores has filled their little stockings with
toys and sweetmeats; the old heart
burnings and disputes of yore will have keen
extinguished and forgotten amid the hilari
ous mirth and jollity which distinguishes
this, notwithstanding the storms and gloom
of winter by which it ts surrounded, as the
gladdest, merriest season of all the year.
: "A merry Christmas 1" How joyously it
was shouted from hundreds of happy throats!
How merrily it fell from the lips of old and
young, upon the morning of the day "where
in onr Savior's birth was celebrated," bear
ing everywhere the glad tidings of "Peace
on earth, good will towards men." Let ns
hope that all have passed a "merry Christ
mas," and that, as Items said about the Iatt
ball at the
'nothing of an unpleas
ant character occurred to mar the general
good feeling which prevailed upon the joyful
occasion."
Before we ugain have an opportunity of
holding converse with our readers, through
the medium of the types, we shall hare en
tered upon another revolution don't start,
reader we don't mean one of those horrid
French affairs, composed of blood and liber
ty, and all that sort of thing, but a sober,
steady-going revolution of the earth around
its solar center. Ia short, if the almanac
speaks the truth and we take it for grant
ed that it doe, except when it puffs patent
medicines, or attempts to prognosticate the
weather Saturday next, being the first of
January, 1859, will be "Sew Year's day; as
our friend the pedagogue explains it, the
earth on that day will have arrived at the
termination of the yearly pilgrimage upon
which she set out on the first day of Janua
ry of the present year, and will have taken
a fresh start, hoping, by diligence and perse
verance, to again accomplish her circuit
within the time prescribed by the astrono
mers. It is customary on these occasions,
as it is upon the setting out of less import
ant expeditions, such as, for instance, the
sailing of a vessel cpon an important voyage,
the starting of the overland-mail upon its
journey, or the trial trip of a new forty horse
power steamboat to have a sort of general
jollification, by way of giving eclat to the
affair; at which time those very accommo
dating individuals who have assumed the
control and direction of things terrestrial
who, in their own opinion, are entitled to
all the credit of the management of affairs
in our little world take occasion to compli
ment themselves very highly upon the suc
cessful issue of the last trip, and to drink
btm voyage to the one just commenced. And
so we, though only a passenger, yet feeling
a deep iuterest in the result, pour a hearty
libation to the New Year.
New Yeafs day, aside from its impor
tance as being the day upon which the good
ship The World annually sets sail, according
to announcement in all the almanacs, is also
distinguished by the initiation of numerous
individual enterprises, on a smaller scale.
It is the custom with many persons, whose
previous efforts have, not been of a character
to excite a great degree of admiration, to
take a fair start with the world on the first
day of January, trasting in the strength of
certain good resolutions to bring them out
ahead ia the end of the race. Many of
them (we grieve to say it) only add a few
more bricks to that infernal pavement, which
is said to be constructed of good intentions;
while others persevere unto the end, in due
time receiving the reward which always at
tends virtuous endeavor. May you, reader,
belong to the latter class. And may each
successive New Year be to yoa indeed a
Ilappy Xew Year.
at- Some years ago we referred to the
necessity of a law requiring steamboats
oa the upper Willamette to carry anchors,
to be used ia case of aecident near the falls.
Since that time, one boat Has been ' carried
over the falls, drowning- several persons;
fortunately, but few were on it. Another
has narrowly escaped a like fate. Sooner
or later we expect the public will be shocked
by intelligence that some steamer, has been
carried over the falls, and that scores of hu
man lives have been' lost. Every boat on
this upper river ought to carry heavy an
chors, all ready for use, and there ought to
be a statute requiring thenvto do so, under
appropriate penalties. - If our legislature
ean spare time from the interminable seat-of-government
questiop, when it re-asscm-bles,
will it enact some statute upon this
subject? The boats run almost upon the
falls, and if any accident there happens to
their machinery, or a "tiller rope" breaks, a
plunge over the falls, with the destruction of
all on board, is inevitable.

Tuesday evening until the 3d of January.
The Couucil Iia3 transacted all the busiucss
that has thus far been brought before it, we
believe, thongh but few bills have been in
troduced into that body. In the House, the
usual number of bills and memorials have
been introduced, but little business has been
transacted. The agitation of the seat-of-governmeut
question has blocked everything
else there. It was taken up out of its or
der, quarrelled over duriug the usual sit
tings, through night sessions, and ouce from
2 o'clock to 10 P. M., without recess.
Afples oh thk Other. Side. In the K.
Y. and Bosten markets, choice fall apples
have this year been worth from $1 15 to
2'00 per barrel, while poorer sorts com
manded $1 50. , The best winter apples
brought $3 50. In most of the transac
tions the dealers puid tho farmers freni $1,
75 to $1 87 per barrel.
In Oregon, apples hare been worth from
f 6 00 to $10 per bushel. Mr. Wesley Shan

from his orchard about $6,000 worth of ap

The last issue of the Oregonian
contains an editorial correspondence from
Salem, in which the charge of incapacity
is made against Mr. Pyle, clerk of the
House. The charge is wilfully and mali
ciously false, and it comes with a very bad
grace fro'n such an ignoramus as Dryer.
Mr. Pyle is an efficient and competent clerk,
and discharges his duties faithfully and
promptly. No one will ever question Dryer's
capacity for bad whiskey who has seen him
drink.
Mr. Walter Forward, of this county,

I perceive that a part of the newspaper
press of Oregou are opposing our admission
as a State, and for obvious reasons ; aud an
other portiou are predicting our defeat." The
Oregou papers seem determined to mix our
application up with "Kansas." And yet
here nobody really expects Kansas to trouble
Congress thia winter; and here nobody
doubts the admission of Oregon. do not,
and predict that Oregon will be a State
within the Union by the time this -letter
reaches yon! I have conversed freely with
member of Congress, editor?, newspaper
reporters, nnd many others, since I arrived
iu New York, in regard to our adtninsiou,
aud I have yet to meet the first man who is
opposed to our speedy admissiou! Erery
body here speaks of Oregou as a Slate, ns
mnch so as though she was already iu the
Union. It is reserved for a portiou of the
California press aud a quasi California press
in Oregon, to oppose our admissiou. In nei
ther case ia public opinion represented.
Three-fourths of the people of Oregou have
declared, in the most deliberate manner, that
they want a State government; aud the
people of California waut Oregou iu the Uo
iou, and for the most obvious reasons ; aud
whilst the two Senators and the two Repre
sentatives from that State are divided upon
other questions, all four are zealously advo
cating the admission of Oregon. Neither
the President or any member of his Cabiuet
will oppose our admissiou. The Committee
ou Territories in the House will report the
Senate bill for our admission back to the
House at an early day in the scssiou, with
a recouiiueudatiou that it pass aud it trill
pass, or I Bin greatly deceived. But, euough
of this; time will tell.
It is impossible to tell whether our war
debt win be paid this wiuter or not. The
Secretary of War iu his annual report, will
renew his recommendation in favor of our
claims aud urge upon Congress the justice of
our demands; and the propriety of payment.
The chief obstacle in our way is an empty
Treasury. But, if we are admitted, it is
probable that we will get a Pacific Senator
on the appropriate committee, aud as we
can then be heard, 'both in the Senate and
House, we may indulge hope of sRicess. 1

strange to me. The bill for our admission was
referred to the committee on Territories on tho 0th
of Juno. They of eonrse had the State Constitu

tho election of State Officers, and a perfect State

was referred to the committee on Territories, and
when "our friends" on tho committee objected
that there was no Stnto organization, they made
an objection which they and Gen. Lane certainly
knew was false, If we have many such "friends''

The Xrte Vork Titnrs announces that the gov
ernment have determined toorder General Harney
from the Oregou department to the department of
the West. As the war has euded, his presence is
deemed no longer necessary in Oregon. It will
be nrged on the Secretary of War to order General
Harney, when he returns, to come with a force of
six or seven htiudred men, or with whatever force
may be ordered, by a overland northern route.
It is said such a force, starting in Mar, would
have no difficulty, as settlements and posts where
supplies could be obtained extend ou both side

Democratic, passed aa act that its auccessor
should not assemble in two years, ualess called to
gether by Governor Sibley. The returns make
it very evident that the Legislature is republican,
which reuders it exceedingly probable that Gov
ernor Sibley will never call it together at all;
so that the terms of the members elect will come
and go w ith no chance whatever on their part to
perform any duties.

The arrival of the United States frigate Sabine
for repairs afforded direct evideuce of the fury, of
the gale at sea.
Lieut. McCann, U..S. N., master of the Sabine,
furnishes a narative of the rise nnd progress of the
cyclone in which the Sabine was caught, with re
ports of the sunerings endured Dy some otner ves
sels. The Sabine excited the admiration pf the island

animated canvass of the actual relations existing
between our Government and the President of
Paraguay.
We find in the New York papers various specu
lations as to the contents of the President's mes
sage aud Secretaries' reports. We give the fol
lowing: It is understood that tho President will
in his message recommend Congress to provide
for the construction of a railroad througltout the
Territories, to connect California with the Atlantic
States, leaving it to the States on either side to
make the connection entirely across the continent.
The practicability of the El Paso route having
been demonstrated by the successful operations
of the Overland Mail Company, Texas has already
provided for a road to El Paso, and will do more
if necessary. California would doubtless make
provisions to connect at its Southern limits. Such
views, and others considered as pertinent, will
doubt loss be submitted in tho President's message.
The President has no preference of route beyond
what facta demonstrate as the one most practica
ble. . -
The President will take stronsr erooiid in his
message ou tho Nicr.rngua question, and the rati-
ticatiou or the Cnss-l nssarri treaty, anu no com
binations of European Powers will be allowed to
prejudice the interests of the nation who must use
theso isthmus routes in its domestic trade a hundred-fold
moro than all the rest of tho world to
got her.
Tbo opinion of those inhe confidence of the
Administration, is that the President will recom
mend the adoption of tho tariff of 1846. He is de
cidedly opposed to patting a duty upon tea and
cotibo.
Secretary Cohb is said to bo against any aug
mentation of tho tariff, but will havo to yield or
quit his post.
A Washington dispatch in the JV. Y, Times,
states that " Secretary Floyd is rapidly regaining
his health, and is now busily employed at his pri
vate residence preparing his annual report. 1 his
report, I understand, is longer than usual, but
proposes no radical change iu the present organi
sation of tho Army. Utah matters will be treat
ed of at length, and a full explanation given tho
country why the Mormon war, which was only a
threatened war, cost so much money. The Quartermaster-General's
report alone shows an expen
diture of nearly five millions of dollars in that
expedition. The entire expenditure by the Quar
termaster's Department for the fiscal year was
$9,41 l,ii76 33, and the estimates for the year end
ing June 30th, lc$0, aro as follows :
For Quartermaster's expenses.... $6,912,000
For clothing and camp equipage - -1,120,800
For contingencies in the Army 85,000
Total. .i.. $8,066,800
Tho estimates of expenditures in the Navy
Department for the next fiscal year, for the
Navv nroner. amounts to thirteen millions,
million less than those of the current year. So
that no large increase of force in any quarter caa
be contemplated at present. ' " 1 ,
The leading feature in the report from the Indi
an Bureau, it is understood, will be a recommen
dation that the present "Reservation svstem be
abolished, so far as it applies to California. This
should have been done in regard to all onr terri
tory long since. The Indian should be allotted
his section or quarter section of land and then
taught to cultivate it. Should he prefer to chase,
then let him live by the chase if he can. Expe
rience would soon teach him the melancbolly fact
that the buffalo is fast disappearing, and that ne
cessity would drive him to the plow for the means
of sustaining life. The time has arrived for this
chango. The Reservation policy will soon by cut
off by the spread of the white race, and it would
be statesmanlike to induce the Indiana to adopt
a policy as a matter of choice which will soon lie
forced upon them by stern necessity.

A dreadful catastrophe had taken place at Brad
ford, England. A large quantity of arsenic ap
pears to have been mixed with lozenges, and sold
at a retailer's shop. All who partook of them
were attacked with terrific pains, and several

sixty persons were still suffering from the effects
of the poison, and no fewer than thirteen have al
ready died.

The London Times, in an editorial on the wretch
ed condition of Mexico, says, there is no reason
that England should oppose the ambitions designs
of the Government at Washington. It considers
that the establishment of any government of law
and order in Mexico would be a gain, and ridi
cules the threatened Spanish expedition as a farce,
and says that every gan fired on Mexican terri
tory is fired to the ultimate profit of the Anglo
Saxon race of the northern territory.
The London Times, of November 4th, says: A
heavy loss to the underwriters at Loyd's was
made known yesterday by the receipt of a tele
graphic dispatch from Bremen, announcing the
destruction by fire of the Hudson steamer, which
took place Tuesday night in the port of Bremer
haven.f The Hudson was a first class iron paddle
steam vessel of 2500 ton register, belonging to the
Bremen and New York line of mail packets, having
made but two or threo trips.
A nice little quarrel has arised bctwen France
and Russia, such as in the good olden time might
have led to an inmmediate war, and in regard to
whirl! the newspapers have observed a discreet
,siwnee. It appears that, early in last Jane, a
strong Rnasian police force, backed by two hun
dred Cossacks, invaded the dwellings of sixty
three French tradesmen, settled in Sebastopol,
arrested and conveyed them on board of a Rus
sian vessel, (the Balaklava.) which transported
them to Odessa, where they were left without re
sources, and many of them plunged into the
deepest state of distress. A month before that
occurrence, the Cossacks had seized four French
workmen, and marched them on foot, like felons,
to Simferopol. The reason of this expulsion of
so many respectable persons, and the groands on
which Russia could justify such a violation of in
ternational law, as well as the laws of humanity,
exposing the property of unoffending French sub
jects to plunder and confiscation, no one can tell.
The Russian Government is bent on observing an
absolute silence, and impervious to all remon
strance. Stkpatht for ths Ixdiaxs. A number
