would hare accorded to a democratic candi
date, regularly and fairly nominated, we for
bore to adduce, hi previous political character
and history, in onr own defence ; coutcnt to let
Utt democratic masses judge as to the tnanuer
of the nomination, without reference to the
can&date. Now, Mr. Stont cannot be affect
ed, either personally or politically, by a refer
ence to hi political antecedents, which, indeed,
are now a matter of general notoriety. We
shall therefore be acquitted of anv design to
rail Mr. Stoat itr. when we tLfm it neccs-
srsrr to call ailuunon 1.1 n'S uraier inxiiieai rec-

We nr. then, as of itself r.-ua a cikh! an.l
sufficient reason why the democratic repreixnt
aUoa of this State should not ba?ctl upmi
the vote received "by Mr. ?tmit, that that vote
was inflaenced by the fact tint t! d ontleman
is wit boat a democratic record nit jUnt to en
title hint to the confidence of th. K-:nrmcy f
this State. Previon to hi c-mii'ig to On gtm,

was connocted with the koor notoiu organi
sation in California, and it wris not kiwn th-it

of hit leatinf that SiUV. It whs ahn rteJ
daring the eanvase. that Mr. Stont bad all bi
-file breat fat opposition to the democratic party,
aad had never, ezeept very recently in Oregon,
voted a detnocrat ticket. Of course many
life-long democrats, to whose ears thee thing
were brovghu did not cozuider theatre! vet

doabt bat tht JXr Sfctnt's an.cseder.U. taken

tioa, lost him a great many d era sciatic vte. ,
For there wore donbtleas mnny oeioi ratio vo

good grosmds for belieTieg that the same Cm.-U 1
wkkh eansed many deraccrat uwitLhakl their
nSragee from Mr. Stoat, in JtceJ a hrje nam
bcr of the opposition to vote for him. This
Was the ease throoghoot the State, as far as we
eaa learn from the most reliable sources, thongh
in some counties Mr. Stout received a larger
proportion ef the opposition vote than ill oth
ers. At all events, it is clear that Mr. Stunt
did not poll the democratic vote of the State, or
aaythiug near it ; while to those counties ahich
gave him the largest majorities, the poll-books
will show that he received a large number of
opposition votes.
The precedent has always been, ta the dem
ocratic party, to base the ratio of representa
tion upon the democratic vote, which is mraullr
approxLttaicly d termined by the vote given for
the democratic candidate ; or, if there are sev
eral candidates, that oae is selected who coxes
. nearest to having received a itricllc party vote.
Thos, Gov. Whiteaker'a vote was the basis of
representation in the last convention. There
were candidates on the State ticket last year
who had received more and fewer votes than
Gov. Whiteaker. His vote was selected as the

TVe hare before this said that the t wattle
concerning fJen. Lane and tlie Presidency, was
manufactured to nrder in Wellington City for

an4 thus eoutrihote to kaep htm up at home.
We Have beeu a long time satisfied that this
was the occasion, and the sole office of the par
agraphs which hireling letter-writers some
times incorporate iuto their letters to th press,
and paid idlers occasionally send over the tele
graph wires ru the subject of " Gen. Lane, of
Oregon, ami Ce Charleston Convention." For
instance, let as suppose Lane a rites to Ilibben,
who is at Washington, that a few newspaper
puffs of himself as a probable Presidential can
didate, would help hi falling fortunes in Ore
gon. Ilibben invites some Mter writer to in
dulge with him in oysters mid champagne, per
haps a "plate of row," and plain whisky, and
then, of course, tho conversation over tho
bivalves and the botili, easily gets a paragraph
in tho next correspondence of said letter-writer,
to the effect that "a meeting w 6mm to be held
of the prontiuent statesman from all parts of
the Union, to commit ns to tho best menus of
bringing Gen. Lane prominently forward r.s a
candtbite before the Charleston Convention."
Or that "Mr. Buchanan. Jeff. Davis, and all
the members of the Cabinet nre for Ocu. Lane,
of Oregon, for the succession." Or the tlmu-
saud and one paraphrases of these. Perhaps
Ilibben pays the agent of wh it is tailed "tho

T-uch pxp.-tiieiits aa these are common at

Y Of. Joaeph Lane, who has leen so e'enrlr

Oekoox. This - demonstration" has been '
ra1e by one or ttm political trire-pullrrs here,
t:nd th'mtfch the Assorimed Press it has been
telegraphed all orer the I'nion. There never
traj coiwocUmI a baser fahricatinn. The tr.We
movement is a political dodge, got up to restore
-i leaning of political popultirity. Gen. Lane
is no luorff talked of for the Hrwulency than
John Nugent, and it U doubtful if the people
f Oregon are to be gnlled by so tran?p:ireiil a
aiiam. Even one of t'ns Adininixtntinn orgniiA
here, (the Star) in it ignorance of thi move
ment, innocently etatea that it is nbabte that
tien. L. knows nnthinjr about it, nn l wniiM
not countenance it if he did. Gen. Lane and
th Oregon War Debt are two hobbies uhlch
will not work together. T!iey here repudiate
the most nhnozioos of the two.
Here we have the interesting d:.e!oure that
Gen. La:ie. when he uncovered the ttuipiT of
the Oregon democracy towards him. r.n.l that
'uj "pijolanty" was gone, "wrote a series of
letters to Washington, asking that some sort cf

anan is a candidate notwithstanding his public
denial, and that he is engineering to bring his
name before the Charleston Convention. Wixe
says Douglas will not be nominated, but thinks
his own chance good. The publication of this
letter baa created quite a stir in political cir
cles. Washington advices state thai Mr. Buch
anan is for Cobb, his secretary of tho Treasury,
for hi successor, and that that gentleman has

nothing whatever to do with getting up the pe

Mr. Fisher, of the church south, published in

rather too much. The utmost that fairness
could require would be to award to the reply
the same space occupied by Mr. Fisher, a
liitle over a column, we think. And even that
could not bo demanded as a right. For Mr.
Pcante has a paper of his own in the country ;
Mr. Fitfber had noue, nnd no ocnominatioiial
organ. That being tho case, we thought he
Lad claim to a hearing iu a secular journal.
5ut, notwithstanding, wc will yield a column
to a reply to Mr. Fisher, if the editor of the
Advocate can compress his answer iuto that
limit.

Sickness East of the Mountains. -A
subscriber writing from the Dalles ears :
- "We have had a great deal of sickness here

Oaribabli was cliti tied as a Scotehman not
long since ; now a Virginia paper alii mis that j
he is n descendant of John joims'.on jortes 01
ttliimlfor.l in that State. All Italian roiw dan
cer bv the name of Garibaldi eloped with a
beautiful daughter of Jones nnd took her to It
aly, where she liecame the mother of the Sar
dinian hero. So milch for the Joneses have
the Smiths a claim to pnt in ! Exchange.
You are mistaken. We know as much about
it as any of yon, and we affirm that the Italian
hero is of Irish descent Garry being a very
common Celtic preiioinen, and Baldeye, it ia
well known, is the name frciinently applied to
the Irish national beverage, a marvelous fond
ness for which canned the appellation to he lie
stowed upon Garry's paternal pnrieut, by his
intimate acquaintances, pntil he liecame better
known by it than by his lawful cognomen
(which wns O' Flaherty). Happening to de
molishafellow -countryman in a friendly game of
single stick, the senior Baldeye found it couva'
uient to take a journey to Italy for his health.
Delighted with the country, he took tip his res
idence there, and married one of the daughters
of that sunny clime (who might have followed
the lauduble profession of a roc-dancer, for
aught we know). The first fruits of this hap
py alliance was our friend Garry, who snlise-
piently Italicised u'u name into Garibaldi. It
is said that nfter he liberates Italy, he will go
over and establish the independence of Ireland,
for which he entertains great affection, as being
the birth place of his father. It is further said,
that John Mitchell's lute hasty departure from
the United States was occasioned by his desire
to t-o operate with Garry iu this laxt movement.
The foregoing is at correct an account of Mr.
li iMi, jr., ns we have seen. There mar be Some
slight inaccuracies in the facts stated ; very
likely there nre. If any friend of Garry will
point them out, it w ill afford ns much pleasure
to correct them.

by several New York papers that the money
had been forwarded by this mail to Superinten

ever, and, as I was credibly informed, the Su
perintendent received no information of it. I
now learn that Mr. Geary leaves for San Fran

of the money six months, he might have pre- j
vented it altogether.
