TUB3DAY, NOV. B. 1SOO.
Tiiacn AriinTiBin.
It to ft nther atagatar fewtnre of oar doou
tie eoonotnj-, that allhoag h Oregon (with the
exception of n comparmtirrlr noall extent of
Mining country in the extreme southwestern
Warner of the State, which b rather Californi
an than Oregonian in pursuit and jnnpathiea)
ia entirely an agricultural country, and haa no
other mvroe of rerenue than the productions
f her aoU, and the increaae or her flocks and
heraa, thorn nra rerj turn farmer, in the State.
In all other pnnaita, excepting ouljr the me
ohanieal and Uboriotis, the nnmber of person
employed i greatly disproportionate to the pop
lation. All the profession arc vastly over
done. In any old and well-nettled coiunirtiti
nity, where the constituent element of society
haro had time to become property balanced
and adjusted to each other, a population equal
to onra would not supply bare suhsintcnce to
fourth of the lawyer, doctors, preachers, ed
itors, merchants, tec., who are plying their va
rious callings in this State, with the expecta
tion not only of living1, but of accumulating
feitnnca from them. This professional excess
in onr population is more expensive to the
country than even some of the luxurious hab
it for which we are indebted to the example of
oar California neighltors, and to our own part
seasons of ease and unexampled prosperity.
We hare too many consumers, and too few
producers too ninny who expect to live by
trade and by their wits, and too few to till the
anil and tend the flocks.
Not only is this true, but of those who live
in the country, and call thenwelves farmer,
few, Terr few, strictly merit that honora
ble appellation. A good many of onr citizens
hare devoted themselves to stock-raising; some
to trait- raising ; some to oue specialty nnd
some to another; but whoever has traveled
mack ia oar agricultural districts, mut hare
been struck with tho almost entire absence
therefrom of thorough practical farmer. In
one place yon will see a flourishing and rate
fnlly tended orchard: in another you will
itnd a herd of stock ; in another a field of ex
cellent grain ; but you seldom see all these to
gether. A good vegetable garden is a rarity ;
and batter, milk and eggs seem more difficult
to obtain in the country than anywhere else,
nuny professed fanners actually not producing
these to most people necessary articles, in suf
ficient quantities to supply their own tables.
It might be considered presumption on our
part, and provocative of a retort in kind, to
say that farmers generally do not understand
their bwsiaeas; sack a remark might not be
wholly true. But H is undeniable that the
farmers of Oregon, as a class, are wanting in
management and industry, if not in the knowl
edge pertaining to their vocation (there are
of coarse some exceptions). If they are well
versed in tho theory of farming, they are
strangely at fault in the practice.
The mania for quickly acquired riches is the
bane of Oregon, as it has been of nearly all
new eon 11 tries. This it is which causes our
farmers to run after specialties to devote their
time ami attention to some single branch of
their calling, which, for the time, seems to of
fer the best inducement to their labor and skill.
A few years ago, there being very few bearing
fruit trees upon the coast, apples brought an
cnormon price, both here and in California.
Accordingly everybody took to fruit-raining;
and many persons neglected all other branches
of agrtcukare, invested all their available
means, and embarrassed themselves pecunia
rily, to engage in the business of growing ap
ples, which to their ardent imaginations seem
ed to be really " apples of gold. The busi
ness was overdone. The coueeqnencc, as
might have been foreseen. Las been that the
rapply of fruit is this year much greater than
the demand, and the prices do not much more
than repay the labor of gathering and pack
ing. Now, there is danger that the fruit bus
iness will be neglected, for something else
which just now promises larger profits and
. more speedy returns. Fruit w ill pay moder
ately ; if there is no market for the raw mate
rial, it can be dried, manufactured into cider,
vinegar, and other marketable articles, which
we now import, and pay heavily for. Our or
chards eaoohl not be neglected. But the day
of extravagant prices, for fruit and everything
else, is past. Our farmers and mechanics and
tradesmen must be content with moderate prof
its ; and the virtues of iudnttry and economy
must be called into active exercise, if we would
not become a community of paupers.
Wealth is desirable, and the means of ob
taining k honorably should Ik- nsed by ail who
can. Rapidly acquired wealth is not to 1m des
pised ; but for the sake of this many neglect
the slow but certain means of industry and
prudent economy, and embark in chimerical
projects, which are as likely to result disastrous
ly as otherwise. Oregon now presents no ad
vantages over the eastern States, for the accu
mulation of wealth, excepi the greater fertility
f her soil, the superiority of her climate, and
the more favorable succession of her seasons.
In these are all the elements of wealth, requir
ing only well directed labor and prudent man
agement for their development. With such a
population as that which compels abundant
plenty from New England's bleak hills and
ragged coast industrious and frugal, hardy
and abstemious Oregon might come in time
really to deserve the title which her enthusias
tic encomiasts have so often claimed for her
-the Garden of the World."
We are complaining now of " hard time.
Happy man. indeed, is that Oregonian who
jingles coin in his pocket, and calls no man his
creditor. Fortunate is he who ha no outstand
ing liabilities that be is not prepared to meet
no dans that he would not fain avoid. Iiupe
exniosity is the prevailing com plaint. Indebt
edness and pecuniary embarrassment are so
to speak fashionable. Men of business tell
yon that there is absolutely (comparatively
peaking, of 'course) "no money in the conn-try-
Notwithstanding this deplorable state of
tacts, ear State, with its great capacities, is ex
porting nothing excepting fruit, while there is
as yet no perceptible decrease in our imports.
Some of the articles imported are an actual
discredit to the State. Scarcely a steamer ar
rives at Portland so we are assured which
does not bring vegetables of various kinds.
batter and eggs, to dispose of in the market of
that city; cargoes of grain and hay from Cali
fornia have been brought to the same market ;
t say nothing of the dried and preserved fruits,
preserved meats, pickles, dec, which form a
part of the stock in trade of every grocer.
How, we ask. is it possible for a community to
be otherwise than impoverished and in debt,
whose imports so largely exceed it exports ?
How can that man expect to thrive and pros
per, who prefers to be idle, and to go in debt
for his daily subsistence, to laboring for any
thing less than tho exorbitant prices to which
he has been accustomed iu the past flush times?
Our farmers (and our citixens of every cluss,
who depond upon their exertions for a liveli
hood) must learn to abate somewhat of their
rather too lively expectations. They must bo
content with moderate gains, secured with in
ereaseiTpaius. Instead of idly murmuring and
repining at the hardness of the times and the
scarcity of money, they must go to work to
remedy the evils under which tho land is groan
ing. We cannot expect and should not desire
a return of tho times when cattle were worth a
hundred dollar per head, nnd apples com
manded fifteen dollars or twenty dollars per
bushel. Those prices were exorbitant, and
ruinous, and the country was relieved when
they were reduced to something like rcasou.
High prices and general prosperity do not
usually go hand in hand.
We must Warn to apply that excellent max
im of Poor Richard (we need n Poor Kieluird
in Oregon just now, to instruct our citizens,
and to reprove their idleness and extravagance.)
" Diligence is the mother or gxJ luck."
We ninst leant economy and prudence. We
must learn to do without luxuries which we can
not afford, and to be contented with a reasona
ble remuneration for whnt we produce. We
must l.mrn thnt it is better to sell our produc
tions at prices which will barely pay our ex.
Mnses, than to let them rot in the fields, nnd
ask tho merchant to trust u. for groceries.
Oregou ought to be, and must be, independent
of outside pecuniary obligation. Shu has re
sources enough at command let them be prop
erly used. Let the fanners, the bone and sinew
of the country, see to it that we produce, and
export enough to counterbalance our imports.
and something- over. Then w e t-liull hear no
more about " hard tunes."
V9" We suggest that in each Precinct the
poll-list of the June electioll he obtuiued. nnd
that every man who docs not appear fairly
nimii the record as having supported the nomi
nee of the Salem Convention be denied the
right to take part in the primary election.
We find the above suggestion in tho Dalles
Journal, a paper which insists upou the admis
sion into democratic meetings and conventions
of ull members of opposition parties w ho this
year voted for Stout ou account of their sympa
thy with his knownothing proclivities, or fraud
ulent nomination, nnd edited br an individual
who has been less than a year in Oregon, hav
ing left California, it is snid. mt'aer suddenly
last winter to avoid a libel suit for something
published in an opposition pnper of which he
was an editor. It is worthy of note that ntnoug
the delegates from Wasco couuty in the last
State Convention, was one who at the previous
election voted the opposition ticket. He was
chosen delegate through the influence of the
verv men wiio now seek to proscribe those dem
ocrats who refused to olter the dictates of
Lane's grocery caucus, ami vote for the candi
date of fraud, trickery and corruption.
It is needless to say that the JournaCs de
mneracy extends uo farther than support or Jo.
Lane; and that its editor nnd his advisers
would le willing to admit anybody democrat
or republican, w hite or black into their pri
mary meetings, who would nsTee to support
Uncle Joseph for the Presidency first, nud
nfterwnrds for the U.S. Senate." It matters
not to Joseph and his set of hireling adherents
who compose the primary meetings nud con
ventions, if they are but" Lane men, and will
ing to descend to any required depth of degra
dation and meanness in the service of the One
Man power. Will democrats submit to the in
solence ol eleventh boor hirelings, nud listen to
their interested twaddle nbont democracy and
democratic nsages and discipline ?
It is a fact worthv of note, iu this connec
tion, that, men, who at the previous elec
tion voted the opposition ticket, were
not only elected to the last State Conven
tion, hut that in many of the counties that class
of voters were as freely admitted to the pri
mary meetings as any others. Kven in Polk
county, several delegate to the County Con
vention of last spring, were "national."
Xow, this same class of men insolently propose
to exclude democrats from primary meetings,
unless thev voted for Mr. Stout.
C3r The four delegates at large elected to
the Charleston Convention from tlie State of
Massachusetts, arc men of prominence and
ability. Among them is Caleb Cushing. Mr.
Pierce's attorney general, and oue of the ablest
and most cultivated minds in the nation. An
other is Hon. Isaac Davis, for several years
candidate for governor of the State, and a
tirominent lawyer and jurist. Thry are for
onplas. In Oregon, the tnist prominent can
didate of the Lnne society for delegate to
Charleston cannot read or write without the
greatest difficulty. It is estimated that during
tne lat tliree years he has destroyed as many
reams of paper practising upon his name, anil
that he is not yet able to mechanically write it
so that the inexpert can read it'. He is
for Lane. This is all O. K. We like to sec
things correspond. The aspirant is as fit for
delegate as Joseph is for President. And the
contrast between him and Cushing is not very
much greater than between Lnne and Douglas!
What is ox Foot f There is a written
call posted in the Sublimity precinct, in this
conuty, for a meeting of the republican voters
to meet on the 12th inst.. to elect delegates to a
State convention. What this State convention
is to be held for, we cannot learn, but hear it
suggested that it is to elect delegates to the re
publican national convention, or re-instruct
those already elected.

county for the year 1830. I now give you the
amount, as returned by the assessor, to wit :

Well, it has made its nppearauce at last.
The public have been looking for it, with about
the same kind and degree of interest that they
would expect the dying confession of n con
demned rrimiual. At least they are gratified.
After many delays and disappointments, beg
gings and cringings for contributions from black
republicans, and vexatious, anxieties nnd
trwuldcs innumerable, the paper likeness of the
fit-Senator is presented to the gaxe of an ad
miring public. It is as much " like " n the
picture and accompanying uutobiogrupliy iu the
Democratic Review. His first page is Deluton;
his second page is the ex-Senator; his third
page is Mr. Smith (late of Iowa); and his fourth
is the would be next Senator. As if Oregou
had not got enough of the disgusting subject ul
rendy, we are to bo deluged with weekly doses
of Dehizon, us long ns compositors will work
for nothing, and board theiuselres at the ex
peiiso of their landlords. Heaven preserve
through the nauseating infliction The mess
has been simmering ever since last May, when
the Oregon Legislature dared to refuse to re
elect Delazon to the IT. S. Senate, and all the
time he has been nddiug to the cauldron such
foul ingredients ns crtme to his hand, until it is
nt length considered ready to drench the com
munity with, in weekly doses. All Deluzon
asks of the public is to swallow his broth, nnd
then to re-elect him to the. Senate. We pre
sume ho will procure from Mr. Swackhumer
tho steel plate of himself, and republish it with
his nutobiography iu somn future issue, thnt
the whole country may see w hat kind of male
rial the Legislature refused to make a Senator
of, nnd w hat kind of " stock he is descended
from." 1 ,
We suppose Dehizou's confessions will nt
first lie sought after nud read, until the public
curiosity sickens, nsit undoubtedly will, of I lei
axon his egotism, his vcrWity, hi slung, nnd
his Drlazonism. The Drlazonian will fail of
its object, t". r., Dclazou's re-election to the
Senate; and Delazoii will soon tire of an em
ployment which will bring him neither honor
nor place.
The first issue of the Dclazoinan contains
the substance and spirit of nil that will come
after it; nnd we have therefore devoted more
time and space to this issue than we will to nny
future one. Dcluzun'a merits have ulreiidy
been thoroughly discussed, and the people have
rendered a Verdict. If ho chooses again to
drag his character nnd conduct before the tri
bunal of public opinion, it is uo adair of ours,
and we will place no obstacle iu the wav of his
doiu so.
1'iVTha Drlazonian republishes from "Old
T.'s" Traveler a paragraph from an obscure
California paper (which it says is one of our
evebanjre) nbosive of us. We never ex
changed with the paper, (Crescent City Hu
gh) never knew anything about it, and cared
less. A paragraph from the pen of the junior
one day g t into the Statesman, making fun of
the dingv seveu-br-iiine, an I was the cause of
the little chap's w rath. Hut, ns Deluzon seems
foil J of tins opinions of exflianges, we will give
him below an extract fro-.n tho Washington
correspondence ol a t'.tliforuia paper with
which we do cxtbange :
Thi most ngreenble new s w hich has readied
Washington for a long time, says a eorrcsond
e:it, is the defeat of Dl-Iuzoii iiiith, ns a can
didate lor tho United States Senate, by the
legislature of Oregon. It is almost too good
to be true. 1 tm tller, a meaner, a poorer, or
a more shallotc-pated, terond-hand dema
gngmf nerer entered the hull of Congress and
tUat is saying much. Of himself he is noth
ing, and would Hot be worth these words or
anybody's notice, but that his defeat involves
that of his patron, Jo. Lane, w ho hna hereto
fore ruled Oregon like a despot. The end of
his sway there is something to rejoice at, as a
positive gain in it.-i-H', nud the dawn of a more
auspicious day on the Pacific. When such
demagogues are put dow n, it furnishes evidence
that principles pre nt last to be recognized,
which their intrigues, combinations and cor
ruptions have heretofore silenced. If any body
ever thought seriously of .loo Lane for Presi
dent before, th's bit of intelligence will be npt
to settle his prospects nun .
What ioks all that Amh nt To? Del
azoii q totes what we hare said in former years
in rcgnrd to himself and (ten. Lane. We sup
ported Lane until we found him unfaithful to
his public trut, nnd attempting to convert the
democratic organization nnd part into a ve
hicle to further his individual aggrandisement.
And then we ceased to support him. We otce
had confidence in Delazoii Smith, (nud tiiat is
more than three four; lis of the democratic vo
ters of Oregon will say) and were free to ex
press it. Utits when he forfeited that confi
dence, we very uatti rally ceased to entertain or
manifest it. Lane and Smith IniiIi used to ex
press a pretty good opinion of " Hush," and if
we thought that opinion pertinent, or worth
anything, we could make a much stronger show
ing of that kind of testimony than they do.
This will answer for nil the "fildcrol" that
may appear upon the above heads for the next
twelve-mouth.
QfKBY. I low many letter from Democrat
has Hush received within the past four months,
containing the unwelcome words "stop my
paper ?" Delazonian.
Rush has not received one tenth as many let
ters, of the kind you indicate ns you nre de
ceived into believing not ns many ns he has
received from democrats ordering the paper
sent to their address. Wc have more demo
cratic name upon our subscription books to
day, nud circulate weekly a larger edition than
we did " four months ago" or three, two
or one month. And, when you realize (what
every one else already does) tho fact that you
will never again see the halls of Congress, nud
your campaign pnncr ceases to exist, the
Statesman will have more suseribers than it
lias now, nud tw ice as many as you w ill number
at any time.
Kul, Mr. Smith, this is very small business
for an ex-U. S. Senator, and candidate for re
election, and we regret being compelled to re
tort in kind. Your intolerant attempts to injure
our business may react upon you, but cannot
injure ns.
After axi Before. Delazoii publishes
some characteristic letters he sent to Oregon,
containing bis opinion of Joseph's faithfulness,
written after he had liecii absorbed by Lauc.
Of course, from that time, he was of the opin
ion Lane had done bis duty, that it was impos
sible to have got the Oregon bill through the
House. A sufficient reply to all those let
ters, is found in the following extract from a
letter of Delazou's written from Washington
before his sale and absorption, when he was dis
interested, and when hi opinion was worth
something :
"From what lean learn I think Stephens (of
Georgia) purposely withheld a report upon tiie
Senate Bill vntil the politics of Oregon were
more satisfactorily indicated in the election of
a f . L . I. - ... .
ocnorarj, yc., uiuugn ii is bAiu iiai me commit

pare a report," e
LKTTRH FRO.ll MltN t'Ot'NTY.
Ai.nAXY, Xov. 3d, 18."!.
To-day the Oreton Democrat first sees the
light. You will not be surprised to find a large
portion of it personal to yourselves. No other
course would Jill the bill announced in the pros
pectus, or satisfy its Lane and republican sub
scribers, who expect to see the fun begin, lis
they sny, in the next issue of the Statesman.
You w ill, of course, judge for yourow ii paper
ns to w hat is nn unbearable nll'rotit. Hut. very
many democrat here would, 1 think, be pleas
ed to have you continue the truce you seem to
have observed iu regard to Mr. Smith for some
weeks past. He has rctmid the sound advice of
his best friends here with neglectmid sometime
with abuse, and hits gone ns wrong as possible
for the last year. Yet we have endured it pret
ty well, nud think there are reasons Tor testing
your patience in the same manner.
Hy becoming editor of n Lnne newspaper,
he has chosen to place his Senatorial aspirations
on n level with those of Sinter, .Ionian, T'Ynult
and Lelaiid, which is etpiivaleiit to a with
drawal from the Held. Whatever objection,
then, there tuny be ngniust him. It is useless to
pursue him further, and hardly right for you to
torment n fallen adversary.
It is rather strange that ho is unable to find
nny In-tter endorsement of himself in your old
files that the one he publishes. His selections
from the Statesman of other years, cannot be
tortured into anything but so many mementoes
of its rigid fidelity to the pnrty.
All the help lie enn itlhird lien. Lnne, iiml
his leeches, will be it re-hush from the Union
and tho Traveller, which will amount to noth
ing. Again, Mr. Smith is one of thot-e rare pro
duction of nature a genius a person iu
whom n peculiar inspiration occupies the place
of reiison and practical common sense. His
tory has nlwnys been partial to such men, and
eotemporaries" should deal as gently with them
us circumstances will permit. None nre so
sensitive to criticism or rebuke, nud mme so
helplessly exposed to it.
Mr. Smith has been a prominent politician
ami no aspirant for more than twenty years,
and the fruit of nil his laltors is out; year on a
South American mission, eighteen days in the
L. S. Senate, and u rather sad political record.
He recounts, I believe, thirteen limes iu
Iowa when he was either grossly cheated or
grievously overlooked by bis pretended friends;
to which may be aJded one in Oregon, and
once in Washington City. His undying hope
fulness, however, is a fortune of itself, and he
is full of the belief that he will soon be the lend
er of the Oregon democracy. Hut instead of
lending nny one, he will nt length awaken to
the fact that he is being led, ns iisiiul, hy heart
less knaves and third-rate tricksters. It Were
belter to be lirn blind than n genius.
In consideration of Mr. Smith's past services
and poor pay, vour utmost forbearance in hi
behalf would lie duly appreciated by many.
We nil know the vulnerable points of his pre
vious life, and of the Oregon Democrat, lllld
none, will question either t!ie ability cr the
courage i:f the Statesman in make use of them.
Yet such a victory would be bootless. C.
YfcnY Df.stitute. TLe Huston Post seys
n mercantile house held nn unsettled claim of
long standing against a l.ttueduck "out West,"
itnd ln-ariii that he nns becoming " well to
do," sent their claim to a Western lawyer to
collect, tn due time they received a reply,
which imctunlly crushed any hopes they
might have entertained of receiving their mon
ey. It ran in this wise: " Oents you will
never get any spoudulics from Hill Johnson. I
called upon him yesterday, a d found him w at Is
liar' tile, his) feet upon the nuked earth, and
not clothes enough upou hint to wad a gun !"
A:i expressive simile.
IT Dclazou says he is " informed" certain
correspondence of the Statesman "was written
iu the oflice," and w ants to know " what the
farmers think of thnt." He is misinformed ;
his informer was feared not to be trustworthy
in t'tat respect, (a mutter of honor among print
ers) and much local ctirresptMideuee was copied
to prevent his knowing the names of authors.
Hut, it was never thought necessary to copy
nny New York, St. Louis or Saratoga letters,
and hoik were ever seen in any baud writing
but that of their authors, and none of them
were ever written except on the other side of
the continent.
While upou this subject of vt hat was sup
posed to le betrayal of otlice secrets, and the
"examination of manuscript," what is it sup
posed " farmers" would thiuk of a mau writing
and publishing article in his own praise over
anonymous signatures ? Hars let dowu nut sel

Jinor. Pratt. The Red li'.uff (Cnl..)
Beacon says that nt a trial recently had in that
city, w herein a man was tried for setting fire to
to the low n of Tclinma, Judge Pratt, formerly
of Oregon, assisted in the prosecution, and that
Journal thus speaks of his efftirt :
The speeches were all good, but the clos
ing argument for the prosecution by Judge
Pratt wa a great ell'ort. He handles it case iu
a fine stylo never allows himself to get excited,
talks to a jury iu an itnimpassioiied manner,
deals more in facts and logic thau in flowerv
sentences, nnd altogether is n lawyer more cal
culated to inspire the respect and confidence of
the people tlian any one who lias ever attended
this court."
I re" L'nder the head of how much hag he
(the editor of the Statesman) accomplished,"
Delazoii Bays " he has defeated the election f
a U. S. Senator." Aye! there's the rub ! The
democrats nre not few, who if they believed,
ns you assert, that the Statesman defeated your
re-election, would accord to it unlimited praise.
Even Gen. Lane would be forced to say "God
bless it." forthut; for he declared you ought
not to be ngaiu sent to the Senate and "worse
nor that."
Upon the head of what newspapers have
done, can't Delazoii tell us what the "Anti
Durham" Delazonian would have "done for
the democnicr " if the opposition had enabled
him to start it iu 16X1, in accordance with his
desire ?
The Apple Crop in the States. While
the Oregon fruit-raisers nre liewniling the fall
iu price of their staple crop, in the Kasteru
States an almost total failure of the apple crop
is announced. The X. Y. Tribune says :
Apples. Everywhere a failure. The ap
ple disease is a 'fatal and widespread as the
potatoc disease in its fullest vigor. Everywhere
trees are dying the leaves turn yellow, the
twigs dry up, the fruit drops off, or, if it hangs
on till mature, it is gnarly and only half size,
very often wormy. Fine tipples, of full size,
smooth skius, nnd gixid flavor, are the excep
tion, not the rule, in all tho region that sends
fruit to this city.
Misquoting. The toad-faced reptile who
used to ventilate hi billingsgate and falsehood
ill the Corvallis Beef-Eater, has transferred hia
vcual correspondence to the Delazonian, w here
he attempts to shirk the epithets and maledic
tions which bis infamous character nnd conduct
have earned for himself, ujioii his country and
his countrymen. He asserts that we spoke of
the Irish as a " vile and depraved race." We
spoke of this toad-faced hireling as the " low
est and most depraved of his race" but did not
refer to his nationality. " A man may dis
grace his country, but the country will not dis
grace a man." Of this, which we believe is
as true an adage-as ever was quoted, this com
mon liar, is a marked illustration.

KuiTon Statesman : Since my last, no
event of startling importance has transpired in j
this city, to ciiguge my pen, mm commnnu tuc
attention of your numerous renders. I nm
therefore compelled, much nguinst my own in
clination, nud doubtless to the disgust of my
very particular friend Peter the Fifth, to serve
no it dish of political news nnd gossip, ns I have
otlon been obliged to do, of late, for want of
anything more interesting.
As startling us it limy appear, it is absolutely
certain thnt there Is a trade on foot between
(jell. Lnne and certain black republicans, by
which tho Great Fraternisi r and some republi
can nre to be elected to the U. S. Semite next
September. A circumstance w hich is exciting
a good deal of comment and complaint among
the uninitiated blacks throughout the State, is
traceublo to this coiiteiniilated or consummated
bargain. There nre at least two on the repub
lican eide, who, under this arrangement expect
to ride into the Senate w ith Lane, on the back
of a coalition between the republicans ami the
Luneites. One of them doe not reside north
of this county, nnd the other lives sonm way
south of here. The leader in the Inst Orego
nian is n feeler for this coalition. It wns not
written hy Dryer, mid the latter mny not be
awure of the drift of it. Hut the writer of it
vat. The fact that Jesse Applepate was con
sulted, uud corrected Mosher's still-born prog
eny, the replv to (irover otherwise, glorifica
tion of Joseph, may, or may not possets signifi
cance. Ivme ha always lieen nil adept nt trading,
and he is not going to forget nu old and com
mon resort, in this bis hour of extremity. If,
as he lias nlw nvs done, on the sly, he has kept
up it buck-handed uciiiiiiilance with the oppo
sition, when the sea was smooth, he is not going
to refuse to double tenuis with them now, when
the path is it little rough, nnd l lie sky stormy.
Logon is not going to contest Stout's claim
to his seat, so Mr. Stout informed me before he
left here.
Can it be that Lnne is getting Chiipumn to
" put his foot into it," by removing the Survey
or General's oflice without an order from t fie
President, nud then let it be iiinde a reason for
rejecting his nomination by the Semite ? Chap
man has not yet been conlirme.1. Lnne is
tricky enough to do this, if he thinks he can
successfully blind old Chapman. And the fact
that he funis Chapiuau's an unpopular appoint
ment, mid that a score cr more who claim to be
more deserving and less obnoxious. w:-t.t the
ii'uve, nre reasons enough to do it. Hut, if
,nnu exiiects to get uhead of Chapman in
tricks nnd cheats, he 1ms got In get up " airly."
Our tow n is aain enlivened with the cheery
presence of the old ex-sheriff. Mc was sadly
missed. Hy the w ay, vou were mistaken in
snyicg he had returned from a visit to his nntive
land ; he only went to the Str.tes, but vows
that he w ill never apniu do the like, without go
injr farther, nnd once more trbiddeuing his eyes
with a sight of the dear old liogs.
It now turns out that the Oregon postal
agency was ubolishcd as the easiest mode of
getting rid of Nonis. N" orris attended to the
duties of his ofiice, and did nothing for or
aniust Lnne. llilibett (nlioiu N orris despised,
iiiid took no pains to conceal his opinion) re
ported liim its against Lnne when he got to
Ynshiiigtou last winter, and one or t'.vonf the
spies in tttiscily wrotetolhe samecflect. Hut, as
Laite was satisfied tlmt N orris really had nmde
no opposition to his policy and personal schemes,
nnd that the most that could truthfully be said
of It i in was that he refused to put on the Lane
harness, he didn't like to remove him directly,
so he bod the ollke abolished.
One of Lane's confidants, innocently let tne
into a Ileum if nl secret a day or two ago: It
seems they have been troubled nlmut the matter
of Inning purclmseable members r the next
legislature with otlice as they have got the
places all filled with their kind now. This gen
tleiiinn says Lane's friends intend to promise
the ollices all over again, " mid," he coolly mi
lled, (as though it was all right) "some of the
promises they will carry -out. uud some they
won't."'
Peter the Fifth aud the A?ir man are dis
cussing a ijuestion of historical accuracy ; and
the vast erudition and historical research
brought to bear on either side, are quite re
freshing to contemplate. The schoolmaster,
hating procured Mansfield's Life of Gen. Scott,
i) notes it against Peter w ith stunning effect, and
just now has the best of the argument ; but
Peter may come to the rescue, iu to-morrows'
Times, with some eiiinlly authentic history,
whoe testimony will nut it new face upon the
matter. Meanw hile, having bncked the school -master
to the extent of several drinks, 1 await
w ith some nnxiety the result.
Lieut. Oeu. Scott, I lenrn. has made his
head-quarters on board the U. S. steamer Mas
sachusetts (now in l'ugct Sound) for tho pres
ent. On Saturday last w e held our precinct meet
ings iu this city. CM' the eleven delegate clect
e I in this precinct (North Portland) a majority
of seven to four are understood to be anti-Lane.
A desperate etibrt will be made to scud up
Lane delegates. Iu our precinct I am confi
dent no ell'ort was made- by any one except a
few strikers for Lane; and if the county con
vention should elect Lane delegates, it will be
by wireworkiiigand activity, and not in accord
ance with the wish of tho democratic masses of
Multnomah.
The publishers of the Arirs prop'ise to issue
n new weakly about the first of January next.
It is to be edited by the eminent schoolmaster
whose highly-tiuishcd Saturday-forenoon exer
cises now grace the editorial columns ol" the
Daily yews, at the rate of a dollar n day. As
the new candidate fur a sickly existence and
premature decease aspires to that place in the
family circle which the Advocate had hoped to
enjoy alone aud unmolested, the hitter hops
upon tho embryonic enterprise quite savagely ;
uud. if its remarks are not altogether dictated
by the spirit of brotherly love and kindness,
tfiey contain some wholesome and pertinent
truths.
I understand that when tho Hon. Joseph
Pecksniil" arrived in San Francisco, a grand
demonstration was made in his honor ; though
ejiiie of the stupid people ut the Hay thought the
ovation was intended fur Lieut. Gen. Scott.
Perhaps we never should have known better
here hud not a young man from above I never
can thiuk of his name been ou the ground.
lie was highly gratified with the honor shown
to his distinguished patron, Joseph, who actu
ally coudescciided to visit the Lieut. General,
nnil to compliment him by saying he consider
ed him (Geo. Scott) the first Captain of the
age" n remark at ouce highly gratifying aud
original.
Delazoii Smith would be instructed if he
could hear the expressions of those in this city
he relics upon to support him for the Senate.
There is not a man of Lane's followers thnt
would " touch him with a ten foot pole." He
is no more considered in the Senatorial ring in
this portion of Oregon, than is Dr. Davenport.
They are mentioned if at all, about in the same
terms. Eveu Thelby does noc 44 thay " Dela
zoii here, for fear it will injure lu." C'apt.
D. is about the only mau I ever hear speak of
the late Senator Smith ; he "spins a yarn " of
n " bilking " operation in Sau Francisco, and a
narrow escape from advertisement iu the Va
rieties. Hr the way, did it ever occur to anybody
about Albany" that the Salem folks, if they had
been as dishonest as the Laneitcs were, would
have accepted instead of declined the offer of
the Linn delegation to vote for Grover if Gra
ver's friends would vote for Smith, nnd, after
wards, done as Lane and his society did,
" thrown off on Smith ?"
I see " Peter the Fifth " knows who it is that
snorts the nomme de plume of "St. Pierre," and
that he and " Independent," of the Dalles, are
one aud the same bugger. Ho is wide of the
mark as to the identity of your humble ser
vant ; who " Independent " is I know no more
about than Peter docs about me. And I am
certain " Independent " has no kuowledge of
my real self, uuless you have told him. Peter
sees, that my hair and w hiskers are liberally
streaked with gray. I've been nervously look
ing for those unpleasant monitors of accumula
ted years in my aforesaid hair and whiskers,
but I have not been able to detect the first one
yet. I'll get Peter to ehow them to me some
tlay, when he won't suspect, nud pull them out.
It won't hurt to pull out nil he can find. " In
dependent " may be ns " gray as a badger," for
anything I know, but Peter enn't dispose of
any of his hair di e to

Sad Csscstirr. Mr. Vt. O. Huler, of AHiuiiy,
writes to ns that on Kiitimhiy, the Si!lli lilt., Mr. A.

living near Albany, Linn county, tlgn.. Blurted ou a
litmlinpr cxprdiltou into tlie mountains. They msrlc a

of Sweet Homo Valley, ill wiicf county.
On Tuesday moriiiiif.' fallowing, tbey -ianiled and
started on their linnt. Mr. Hneklemjin, sfler banting
mail nearniKlit, and when ou bis return to ramp, saw
h deer, which ran off a short distance, nud while ho
won wittchiiiK fr it, saw nn object he thought to be a
deer, and thotigbt it made two or three jump. lie
fired at it, nud believing the shot hud luken effect,
loaded his ffmi before goiiitf np to it. Hut on arriving
ut the sHit, to his sad icituiiintmient found he luid killed
a man. lie did not ut tlmt time know who it wiu, but
afterwards found it wan Sir. William Itussell, wbo
lias been reidiiitf in Sweet Home Valley far some
years; and wuh about eighteen jears of age.
Mr. ltunsell wus dead, apparently, when Ml. Ifack
temnn firat went to him, and vu not observed to
more afterward. Mr. Ilacklenutn waa not aware of
any one being f.eur liiui at the time.
Mr. It umhc 11 w as hunting, ami had on a shot pom Ii
mude of an undressed wild ttiiiiiml skin, very much re
scmbliiiK deer iu color, which Mr. Hacklt inati caught
i ilit of, and wniiso bitterly deceived thereby. The bull
struck and entered tbe deceased, near the center of the
bretipt, j ii-t above the powder bora attached to h';
hot pouch.
Mr. Hacklemnn went to his ramp, and bad Mr. J . I
I'aris go immediately to the settlements to inform the
citixens of the fauil occurrence. Mr. Kosaell wns in
terred by his friends on Thursday. Hi father resides
in Sweit Home Valley, and wo bis only relative in
this country.
The above nre the facta of a most and and unfortu
nate nll'uir, and no one doubts but that it wax entirely
nnintftitiomd on the part f Mr. Ilacklenutn. Mr.
Huckletmiu is a respected citizen of Linn co'unty.
WTF Wm. Hamilton, sentenced to the peni

his connection with the robbery by his two
hardened accomplices, 'Emigrant" nnd "buck
