We are fully convinced that, if tin propuM-d orerland ten'ict cin he eatalili-liiti, tlio oct'tiii aerriee ean ba safety iiieuatnl w ith, a not on ly useless), bnt a positive injury to our com merce. For many years past, tho Pacific Mail 8teamahip Company ha been a tax and a bur den, not only npon the general government, but npon the people of the Pacific Coast, That pampered an I parse-prouil monopoly Ita done much to retard the growth and prosperity of oar State aa much, if not more than any oth er eanae. By meau of the enormous aum paid it for transporting the U. S. mails, it kaa been enabled to bay or drive off competition in the traneportatioa of freight and passengers, and thus, having the coast clear for ita own steam era, to extort every dollar which the necessities of the commercial and traveling community weald warrant. Not only thia, but with reck leaa aad criminal disregard to the comfort, con venience and aafety of the passengers, and tlte aecurity of the property entruated to iu care, apva ita steamers, the company haa persisted la occasionally employing in thia aerviee worn oat, utterly nneeaworthy hulks, often t ice-con demited, and their rotten timber and gaping aeama concealed beneath a comt of varnish and a new name, to deceive and entrap the unsus pecting public who " go down to the eea in ships and do bnainefla npon the great water." Thia company baa done aa well, in re pcit to the safety and comfort of steamers, a any other company, under similar circumstance would have done better perhaps, than some indepen dent eompeniee whose ateamera have visited ear porta. But H is none the leaa true that the Mail Company, which receives for iu eervice in carrying the maila a aani which pari a profit ever and above the expenaea of each trip, ha performed that aeivice frequently iu incommo dious or unsafe ateamera. Let thia monopoly give place to a healthy competition upon an equal baaia, and ateamship owners would aooa nd it to their advantage and profit to employ one but the very best ateamera. in every re pect. Onr commerce would gaiu largely by the change. Instead of fluctuating rates of freight and raasage now enormously high, wow ridiculously km, according to the alteence or pressure of competition, these thing would be regulated by the amount of trade, and the requirements of commerce and travel. All the beaefita of the present aysteai would re main. At present, all com iierei il or other business requiring spootal h-i i entrusted to expresses, instead of to the mails a it would be if there were no ocean mail service. For many year the people of California and Oregon and Washington li ive hceii end ing out against the oppressive monopoly enjoy, ed by tho Pacific Mail Steamship Company ; but their complaints have In-en too feeble to reach the ear of Congress or the Postomc de partment. During all these years, while the company was draining the very lifeblond of the Pacific coast by ita extortions ; while it per formed such parts of ita stipulated service aa it pleased, without reference to the public conven ience ; while ita steamers passed by, in violation of contract, and defamed the harbor of South ern Oregon, our delegate at Washington never uttered a word in regard to the matter. When at length the home pressure became too strong, and be was forced to make' aa effort to have the mail landed at Umpqua, he, in connection with the California delegation, or a portion of it, aad the delegate from Washington, procur ed an additional aum of 9123,000 per annum to be paid the company for the extra sen ice. The Mail Company'a ateamera always carry members of Congress from thia Coast free, and la thia manner, at a small expense, their f riend ahip and interest are secured by the company. It ia understood that Gen. Lane haa regularly been the recipient of their bounty in thia re spect, for himself; and it ia tolerably certain that the Garretta, Ilibbena, and others who came out here and returned under hia auspices, were franked through by hia influence. The same ia true of the delegate from Washington Territory, and of moat of those who have rep resented California in the federal councils. Senator G win is undeniably in the direct inter est of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company. Aad oar Representative elect, Mr. Stout, waa at the time of hia election, the Company'a at toraey ia thia State. Under these circumstan ces, it is useless to hope for any change, how ever desirable, in onr mail service. Onr only resource now is, to endeavor to secure, in fu ture, such a representation ia Congress as will endeavor to promote the interests of our State and our people, instead of devoting all their time and energies to selfish, personal interests aad designs- An opportunity will soon occur when we may avail ooraelvea of this last re source. If we neglect it, we will have on ly ooraelvea to blame for neglected interests aad perverted trusts on the part of our public 17 The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Press, ( Occasional ) who waa formerly ia toe habit of incorporating para graphs laodatory of. Lane in bis letter, says, un der date of Sent. 25tU : - ...... "For a time, tbe redoubtable Geo. Jo.

VBSILTSS ACIAIIV, A few weeks ago a paragraph appeared ia the Eugene Press, the substance of which was, that ia a speech at that place, Hon. Delason Smith had said some of his frieuds, having sub scribed For the Statesman, had found it impos sible to get rid of it, and " dare not write to have it stopped, for fear Hush would iusult them." The paragraph waa manifestly in tended to convey the idea that the publisher of the Statesman waa in the habit of forcing hia paper upon persons who did not desire it ; and that subscribers wishing to discontinue it were not able to do so by the use of proper means. It was a very silly statement yet silly as it waa, it found one Portland paper the Aer ailly enough to copy it. We should uot have taken any notice of it. had not one "J. It. Southworth, P. M. at Franklin," atepped out of hia way to publish in the Corvalli sheet, over bis official signature, an erroneous state ment, corroborative of it father. This Mr. Southworth, whose officious publication was quite uncalled for, and gratuitous aa untrue, state that A cope (of the Sta'etman) come to thia office that has been ordered stopped, and thut. too. before tbe cxpirrd lartn fur whirb it bus been paid. The pa per is not taken out of the olHce, but is sold ut tlie eod of each quarter for pustaite, w-Ara can get a tid o I') Ptiuaters f other ottU-e lull me it is t')n same way with them the puper are rvlitsrd, but like the hoy's prayer, thrjr 'can't stop the ilaninl lliinif." tjiiite un important portion of Ilie Ztatriman't b(ul e.l " ox er two tboiwand " rimilntion, is eillivr M t"t portal, biid asid tor waste paper, or furred uptai an untilhne; people." Some three ttiontha ngn, the paper to which the Postmaster n fer w n ordered tliscoutiiitietl. On rvferruce to our book, we lotind that the uiH:r.lfr to whom it was addressed was in debted for one full year's snlwvription. We nd dresmd Mill a courteous note enclosing a bill, ami informing him thut we could not discontin ue his paper uutil he had pitid up arrearage. Since then he has neither paid the bill, tior no tified us of any error in onr ncvount. The pa per therefore continue to go to hi nihlrv sn, and will si continue uutil it pleases him to pay up nr rearage.or wethoose toavnil onrself of a publish ers "option;" if responsible he must pity the price of subscription, tTthc r voluntarily or, ken we elect to enforce it, with costs, w hether he take the paper out of the office or not. Thus much for the Postmaster " copy.' Aa for the bal ance of hia statement, it is only hi opinion, and i worth nothing to anybody but himself aud the Beef-Eater, We defy Mr. Southworth, or any other post master, to point to a single instance in which we have failed to discontinue a pnper, when properly notified lo do so, and our published terms complied with. A Tew instance have oc curred w here subscriber have continued to re ceive their paper for several weeks or month after the time to which the subscription was paid. In such case we refuse to discontinue, until arrearage are liquidated. Such a course is our only protection against petty fraud and imposition, and no honest subseriWr will com plain of it. Publisher are compelled to lose enough from runaway and won't jnys, on this account. The law of newspapers, w hich au thorises a publisher to continue a paper, once ordered, until all arrearages are paid, was framed expressly to protect publisher from such Jeremy Diddler as would attempt to w in die them out of a few weeks' or months sub scription, trusting to the difficulty and expense of collecting little hill, for impunity. No hon est man, who ia able to do so, w ill object to payiug up like a man when he wants his paper discontinued. And, if through any negligence of onr a paper shall lie continued after it has been properly ordered stopped, nil nrrenrnjrcs being paid, we will charge nothing for the time it is sent. To send the Statesman only when ordered, and to discontinue with promptness, whenever requested, and arrearage paid, has been a rule with us, nnJ one we have strictly attended to. Few Oregon publishers can ear as much. Further we would state, for the especial in formation of the Franklin P. M. aud the B-ef-Eater, that we have npon our subscription liit the n.tmes of over two thonand bona fi lr, re sponsible subscriber ; and that the list is now increasing, quite a r.iphlly ns at any tiaie with in th, pa,t year. We are not co.ii'ILM to resort to the practice of sen. ling our paper to persons who have not or.lcr.tl it, tm:iu ti their carelessness or negligence not to s. n l it hack, nor to r.;.rt to so.item;:iIilo ran I lai as sertions, liacked by more contemptible false hoods, for the petty purpose of misrepresenting the circulation and business of our neighbors. We have pre ty exact information as to the num ber of qnires the Beef-Eater prints weekly ; but we have no object to serve by paraJing the beggarly acconnt before the public. We are content to stand or fall in public estimation upon our intrinsic merits, aud desire that oth ers shall do the same. Tub Same There as Here. Some of Lane's interested adherents here, are in the habit of saying, "true we know here in Oregon that the old General isn't very smart, but he is considered a great man in the States, and con sequently haa great influence there.' Now, the fact is that Gen. Lane is a very transpar ent hnmbng, and they discover it in the State just aa readily a we do here. And all the sto ries about his " great influence at Washing ton " are aet afloat by such creatures as Ilib ben, whom Lane pays for the service. A Ken tucky paper, alluding to the Presidential twat tle started by the Hiblien and Garret tribe, aay : " General Jo. Lane has some anod points about him. tkouph we don't think he ever mode one in a tprrch." " Gratitude for favors received and favor hoet-d for is no doubt one of them (Lane's irood Doinlm. We rather think however that htm sent of futmre favors is little livelier than kit sense of pant es. The above show that the Kentucky editor has as fine appreciation of Lane's character and abilities, aa any in Oregon have. He un deniably has "some good point, but he unde niably is incapable of "making one in a speech?' And that his aenae of future favors ia livelier than his sense of past ones," is a fact many a friend of his has painful evidence of. What a man has done for him, and however disinter ested they may have been, are matter that he never consider. What can he do for me t' the fmimref" ia the only consideration with him. Hence he is always bnying dp hi enemies. - Lane is aa much laughed at and " made fun of in the States, aa in Oregon. CF Some of tbe Lane society are puzzled to know how Joseph got his " Io Triomphe " let ter into the X. Y. Tribune. That ia easily enough accounted fur : Lane writ the letter to Hibbeu.and Hibhen took it to the Tribune office. Greeley, seeing the document was brought them by a nigger, of the Fred Douglass hue. pre sumed it was Idack republican matter, and sent it to the printer without examination. Well, he wasn't far wrong. ' I?" We are indebted to Mr. Selden Hi ?rina. of Polk co-, fiv a gebexobs cobtribatioa of Is JiIorpm PKAistNa JuHti-ii. A email Wash ington paper paraphase Joseph's self-gratula-tory letter, which we Inst week copied from the 7Vf , as follow : Gen. Lane regards the succesn of the De mocracy iu Oregon aa a grant triumph. Their opponent were met npon slricilv Deinncrutio principles. For himself ho hud luliorcd vigor ously. Strenuous exertions were renuiretl, n . every opportunity was sought by tho friend of IjOgan to misrepresent I he doctrines of the Democratic party, and particularly to defame the present Administration. For 'four weeks be wa in the fight, frequently riding tin horse back forty or fitly miles to address the people, which he would sometimes be required to do three or four times a day. In his elforts to ad vance the cause of Democracy ho t.iok the old ground. He placed himself upon the Const i tutiou, stood by the eqimlity of right of tint States, the right of eneh and nil in the Territo ries, vindicated and defended the principles of Mr. liuuhnnan'a administration, the Dred Scott decision, mid iu no single instance yielded un inch to the opposition. Of the effect of Joseph effort in the cnu vas, put forth to save himself, there nre va rious opinion. The imiet intelligently formed, and universally entertained one I that he dum nged Stout, by seeking to link support of him with hi own " vhi.lieotitin." If I.nno, even one day, " rode forty or fifty mile,'' (he was never on horseback, unless Di laxon's bitsgif wn n horie ) he muM have got off "the nsmil'y trnveb-d rouii ." fur lhi-ro wasimt that dUtnucc for any tiny belnceii hi ndvertised nppomt-liu-lits. lie never " ndilrcsscd tlin people three or four time " mi imv one dnv, iitnl never tu ire but once.

Logan expected ihcin tudn this, mid he wus too jxilitic to drive them off, by attack ing the Hdiiiinislmtiou. There vtere nnti-nd-ministratioti men. too, attached to Lane's hook, nml Lane ha been trimming for himself too long to have driven from him any such, by say ing much iu praise of the ndminUtrntinii. If Gen. Lane "look his old ground," he agreed with every man who would vote for him, and his, said the Oregoninu were the " brav est, hundsomest, most generous, most intelli gent, most patriotic people in the world. How he loved I hem all. and every part of them. How much he had done for them in the House, and how much he w a going to do for them in the Srriiate;" flattered nil. said "God hies you " to all, told rrery man he had the licst claim, the finest stock and the smartest children in Oregon ; wanted to buy bis farm and " come right here and settle," " often thought of him and hi good lady in Washington." "Have yon a pipe, my good hnly f never mind if it i black. I do love asmoke with an old pipf ; they are all the belter for that." "Now your good man and I will have a talk I've been wanting to consult him a long time about important matters." Said " true principles of the govern ment," "I stand on the constitution."' (had a copy in rnch ImhiI .') and a half dozen other stereotyped unmeaning phrase. The "political eunuchs" in Washington City, who regard Gen. Iane as not being very smart, may wonder why the people of Oregon can't consent to be always represented by so " clever on old fel low," if he isn't very "capable, and a humbug. That is nil very well' for them, w ho only dance; but a State that has the fiddler to pay in the shnpe of unnttended-to interests, takes a dif ferent view. A Paiui.lf.l.

On Friday, the 21-t ult., a child of Mr. Caleb P. Chapman, of Howell Prairie, in this county, cume to its death in the following distressing manner: Mr. Chapman had prepared a tub of vitriol (sulphuric nciJ) with water, for the purpose of soaking wheat, preparatory to sowing. Before putting in the wheat, a neighbor came along in a wagon, and Mr. C. accompanied him to Salem, leaving the tub stauding until hi re turn. Mrs. Chapman was aha absent ut a neighbor's house, having left her infant, aged about seven months, in the care of the older children, who left it for a while to Like care of itself, ami by some mean it fell into the tub, and wa drowned.

Impudence Concord" and Peter the. Fifth lllbbrn's Advice Projected Removal of Mr. Ueary, and Appointment of ParrarIjane and Mrtralf Hemoval of Surveyor Gen.'s Office Lieut, lien. Scttit the Advocate la w Partnership Fruit Trade, tfc., Ifc. Portlaii, Oct. 28th. 15!. KtHTOfi Statesman t I have frequently henrdof the " height of impudence;" but, af ter some observation, I inn convinced that that moral quality culminates in California third-mto politicinns. For instance, there is " Peter the Fifth," lately promoted to be chief grinder of our 'mistical Pecksniff's (Lime) or gan iu this city, who has not yet been four month in the State, and would not bo allowed to vote, even at a citr charter election ; yet bo already assume to dnqmee of our local politic, aa if be hud made the democratic party iu Ore gon, and now owned it, liody nud breeches, a fully n the Lniiu society own him. In thu last number of the Times, some one evidently well ucuuninted with our !m;ul poli tics, nud the cause which cume near defeuting the democratic candidate nt thu last election Iat which time, nud fur some week thereafter, libben's present worthy successor hud never set fsit in Oregon), proposes a compromise of existing differences lit the democratic party, nud point out clearly the injustico of the course now lieiug pursued by the Isnue society, and the ratal consequence to the party to which such a course miii-t lend. It is evident lli it the writer (who sulwcrilx-s himself ''Con cord") syuiii't liscs u ith the fact mil uf u hich tl.e Times i nu orgMii ; but his better judg ment leaches him that the leader of that fac tion hute carried their bih Irituh-J outrage mi I ptoseriplions too fir, mi l tit it. inih- lln-y retrace tln-ir sti-ps, lln-y are don:ii-.-d to over throw. Iu rt fc relict to ihc justice of the pro Hci ijitiv course inloitcil by lYckrtiiitr fnui ly nt Kugcue, Concord " uys : " If ttio votcm of Linn. exi-iled by tbe discotrcrr uf eM, !ial ruHliril into the m.MititionM. tenviu but a fe v to T.le, who will :y the niittit, ou-jlit lo Im- n-ini-tit ed io the wmvemi in only fur tin- vise M-itinlly ifir en, tin mull hit lie rto she had miifurmly itirca three tiin -s ns tunny, and tlie iimnlx r o her h'iuM-ri:s nna known to he iindilililiislied f Tiie esse of M iiiun d f firsiKily In the ranse of I he iliininirlir I vote.

If, then, lliey are uf our number, and if we desire and expect Ihetn to vote with us, as we certainly oiilit ami cer tainly do, r eannal demy them an etpial voice in the eonvm'ton, except at a pnniikmrnt." That bear in mind is w hat an intelligent and well-informed member of Peter the Fifth's own fiction think nlxuit the matter in question. Itut Peter, while he acknowledge tbe talents and virtues, and long connection with the party of hi correspondent, plainly intimate that " Concord " is a green-horn in politics, aud doe not understand the subject so well ns the Cali fornia adventurer, w ho i paid to misunderstand it; who (lives his eerdirt As if he fell the ease nut heard It ; Ai;d, as he pleases, nifcke matter-of fact Ron all on one side, aa he's pa-k'l." If is needless to say, that if hi proposition had been accepted by Judn'e Williams, when he offered to support that gentleman for the U. S. Semite, if the Judge would get him nn inter est iu the Times newspaper, he would have been on the other side of the fence. He would have lieen running with the" Walem Hegeucy," instead of against it, aa at present. Peter the Fifth talks very dictatorially to the democrats t bout be is plensed to call the " June bolters," and intimates that he can get along without them in his party; that they have " alreadr done more than they can ever do ngniti " in opposition to fraud, trickery and tui piieition. Let not Peter, or rntht-r. his employer, " lnv thnt flattering unction to their soul." i'here are hundred of demo crat iu Oregon w ho, for the sake of demo cratic harmony, voted for the candidate of fraud and corruption List Juue, but titer have done voting so. They will ite-rer, sever vote for another -nih candidate. I observe that Ilihhcn, in his late letter to Peter the Fifth, over the signature of " Hoa," declares that if ti rover or Nesmilh had adhered to Lane's personal organization, as Smith did, that they would have maintained their stand ing iu the democratic party. (!) I am at a loss to know how the d mot-racy of those gentle men could have hccii vindicated by their play ing the sycophant tn n humbug : and apprehend that they will scarcely receive h-ssons iu politi cal morals from any degraded boot-black and pimp of the Ilihhcn stripe. Mr. Stout left here intending to urge the re moval of Supi-riiitcndc nt of Indian Affairs I.Scnry, nud the appointment of W. II. Farrar in his stead. This may be lieu to some, lint my source of information nre wholly correct. Sto-tt is going to urge upon Lane this change, and claim it as his riht. Whether Lane will nccede to the prop isition. n:i I take (Jeaiy's he. id off. or not,, w ill d-pcm1 upon w hether or not he thinks ticarv can do htm more harm than Farrar cnu. It has already In-en repre sented to Iltie thnt, with the exception of Mr. Oenry's church flock, iiolmdy in Linn county circs whether he is in or out; and that they (his flock) don't like his leaving the pulpit to embrace the flesh-pots ol office ; that lie can't do him (Lnnc) any harm if he is removed. I opine that Italic 'will dispose of the matter iu this wise : Tell Stout that Farrar shall be unpointed immediately after tho Senatorial election, and not let Gcarv know (or, if he gets an inkling of it, to deny It) anything about it ; and when the Senator nre elected, remove Genrv nud appoint Farrar. Ho won't like to stir tilings up any more until after the Senato rial election, nud' then he don't care w hat comes of Geary, or any one else ! He i readily made to believe that Mr. Geary ha been ton long a preacher to lie able to do much harm in poli tics ; und if he once gets re-elected for six years, he won't mind the growls or groans of a few victims. The information I get lend me to the belief thnt Lane forced Mctcalf to resign, upon pain of removal. Metealf was. and i still, so far ns I know, a Lane man ; but Lane and the family hud promised the place to about a dozen others, and Bob had to make room for some one of them. Lane told hiui he might name his successor : Mob nujucd CapL 11. Bledsoe, but Lntie didn't have him appointed ! The place was promised tn three others in Jackson county besides Gen. Newconih ; to two in Laue county, two in Benton county, and how many other I haven't heerd ! Why it was given to Gen. N.. instead of some ouo of the rest, I can't divine, unless the General's influence in the South made him a dangerous man to de ceive. Chapman has givcii notice that the Surveyor General' office w ill be removed from Salem to Eugene about the first of Xoveinlior. There has been no order from the President for this change, aud the change can be legally made only through such order. But Joseph ordered it when at this place lutcly en route for Wash ington ; aud Joseph docs things without refer ence to law or precedent. He ordered Chap man to get the office away from Salem, and promised to get the President to issue his order when he got to Washington. My friend Newell, of the Dalles Journal, I perceive, continues to prate about " time hon ored customs" and "sonud and loyal demo crats." I also learn, from the Olvmpia Pio neer, thnt a turkey-cock, over in Vashiugton Territory, has hatched a brood of chickens ! " Wonder will aerer cease."

Scarcely had I dispatch ed my last week's budget of politics, news aud gossip to your " valuable paper," when the steamer Northerner, of the P. M. S. S.

So much iU has been inflicted on the human family from the pernicious and Ignorant practices of empirics, that It seems as if we were fulfilling a boo ml en duty to Jiake known where relief ean be obtained. To those un fortunate enough lo suffer from the effects of sexual or private diseases, of their ill treatment, m cheerfully commend Dr. U J. Csapkay as a man of rare scientific and medical acquire ments, possessing all ths requisites, fmm long experience and acsowlediced skiU, for the successful practice of his profes tioa. Having made sexual complaints an especial study, like the celebrated R'icord, of Paris, he Is enabled to guarantee a pemancnt and speedy cure in all cases of private or chronic diseases, whether the effects of contagion, self-abuse, or loss of virility ; and in order that patients al a distance may avail themselves of his aJvice, free consultation is open to them. The knowledge that we have of the numerous cures be has affected, some of which were of long standing, leads as to plaej much faith In Dr. C's efficacy, and commend him to the eonfldence of those in ill health.
