En. Statesman : Please insert the follow

Jiesolutions passed by the Hcwerian Literary
Society of the Willamette University, upon
the death of iti most esteemed and diligent
member, Samuel Mr. Roberlc, who had klled
the position of iti Secretary, to Ike time of
ins uiness i e ' ' j ,

firemo ltuler to summon from our midst our
leluved member, Samuel Molloberts ; There
fore ns expressive of the feelings of thia Soci
ety, be it
Retained, That wo odor to the "sorrowing
friends of our late Secretary, our warmest sym
pathy. Resolved, That in the death of Samuel Mo
Roberts wo recognize a loss to oar Society of
an earneet, energetic and able member ; one
who was always ready to discharge every duty
imposed upon Ii i in, and to tho country the fair
promise uf an influential uud patriotic citizen.
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions
he sent fur publication to the Oregon States
nan and Pacific Christian Advocate.

W The rebels are fairly ttumped at the
President's amnesty proclamation. It ia the
onl; iorthern document which they have fail
ed tOfe-publish. Deserters all agree that this
it assiduously kept from public reading. It is
one of the beat evidences of the iutrinsio value
i ' the plan that the rebel leaders take such iu
V ' paint to keep the knowledge of it fruin
the people. The emancipation proclamation
and all the President's messages were imme
diately reprinted in the Southern States. for the
parpoao of "firing the Southern heart," and in
creasing the bitterness of Sothern hate. These
documents, perverted a.."""' as only reb
els and copperheads could Ho it, were made to
serve the purpose of deceiving the Southern
peoplo as to the designs of the government;
but tho amnesty proclamation it nut susceptible
of much perversion, and houoe.ia not permitted
lo go among the people. It simply says "lay
down your arms and swear to support the gov
ernment and you ire pardoned." There is
no distorting that into any meaning which
could bo used to prop up the Confederacy upon
the fear or anger of its deluded victims. Its
tendency is to undeceive, to mollify, to wiu
back. The rebel leaders might almost at well
deliver over their armies to Federal authority
as to allow tho common masses to read the ara
nesty proclamation.
try During the year beginning Ootobcr 1st,
iSm, and endine Sept. 30, liKi, there was
performed by the United States printer, forty
nine dollars anu sixty cents worm ui pruning
fur the Executive Mansion. During the same
time the President had eight dollars worth of
binding done. What an expensive President!
How tho tax payers must groan wheu those prof
ligate bills are paid !

fV it is stated that iu all relieldom there
are are only thirty-five daily newspapers now
published, nnd the scarcity of paper ii likely
to dimiuish even this small number by a large
per cunt. The rebels whn can, and want to
read, can be just as well supplied from the
North, with the rebel style of mental aliment
provided they can manage to smuggle
through the Union lines. The Northern arti
cle is quite at unadulterated as the Southern.

l'KACTICAL DK0( KACV.
The only well-defined policy of the demo
emtio faction of the North is opposition to the
Administration, lis opposition is conducted
i various ways. I ,, ,,HC(,0, democrats
content themselves with limply resolving, vot
ing, ami talking against it, while in other local
ities it proceeds to morn practical opposition.
Tho democratic auti-draft mnb of New York
was aimply tho reduotion of the gcuerul demo
cratic policy to practice. A luter instanco of
the saino tort ia the enlistment for the rebel
army of Southern Illinoia copperheads, of
which the dispatches of last week gave us nn.
tico. Southern Illinois It the Egypt of Amer
ica, and a region whero democracy of tho cop
perhead type thrives as naturally as on Long
Tom or Sonp Creek, There can he heard the
cry of "The Constitntion as it is, and the
Union as it was," oftener repeated and louder
enunciated than nnywhero eleo north of Dixie.
There, democrats oould more plainly see the
tendency of abolition politics tn despotism and
the destruction of their liberties. There, dem
ocrats do most bewail thia wicked war and sigh
most deeply for sweet abiding pcaoe. There,
do democrats most frequently resolve against
the , unconstitutional acts of this Administra
tion and pledge themselves to bring back the
Government to firat principles. There, they
most do clamor for a free press and free speech,
and there do they most effectively oppose the
usurpations of the despot Lincoln. Such a
garden of democracy as Egypt must of oourse
near some jlemocmtlo fruit ; and it does bear
well soldiers lor the Southern Confederacy.
That is tho legitimate progeny of modern de
mocracy, stripped of the garments of hypocrisy
with which traitors seek to cover its deformity.
ty If anybody will point us to a democrat
now, who was not a Buchanan demoorat in
18G0, wo will acknowledge to the existcnoo of
a marvel. They will all claim to have agreed
then with all the great democratic lights and
that they huvo not changed a jot since that
democracy then is democraoy now.
Jeff Davis, n distinguished democrat nnd
one of tho "lights" of I860, wrote of another
distinguished light as follows :
I sni huppv to state ttiat durlnir the Dust summer
I lieurcl in uraiiy places, wliat previously 1 had only
heard from the late President Pierce, tlie declaration
that whenever a Northern army should lie usaeinhled
to inarch for the siilijiifmiion ot tho South, they would
haoe a halite tojiffht at home, before leaving the lim
its of their own Mate, and one in which our friends
claim that tlie victory will be at least doubtful."
Our friends" were goiug to help, then? It
was democratic iu 1800 to raise an army to as
sist rebellion ! Democracy in 1864 ia tho anme
as in 1800 ! Then, by demooratio kirio, how
much Unkuiam is there iu it?
The fact is, tho assurances of Northern dem
ocrats, liko Pierce and other "friends," of
Northern resistance to a war for tho Union,
was tho most activo agency in putting the re
bellion on its first legs.
W We imiv relv uuon it that whenevor uicn fail
to distinctly ca'll themselves democrats, uud seek what
are supposed to be popular parly names, their devo
tion lo the faith is a thing nmreof self interest tlmu of
pnnripie, and sucli men will not rally to tlie parly
save in its duvs of actual domination or ussured bone
of success, nor will ihey cling to it much loiuror than
their owu scllisb demuuds are Krutilied. Heoieie.
It may be relied on that, when men distinct
ly call themselves democrats, in these days,
their devotion to tho Union is tho merest hy
pocrisy, nnd that they cannot be relied on here
or hereafter to rally to its safety iu time of peril.

Legislation For Oregon.
Wasiiinoton, Feb. 15, 1864.
Tho Committee on Public Lands has aereed
to report tn the Senate a bill rrnntine lands to
aid in the construction of a wagon road from
Eugene City. Oregon, to the Eastern bonndarr
of the State, by the way of tlie Middle fork of
the Willamette river and Diamond Peak. The
same Committee will also report another hill
granting like aid to a road from Dulles City. on
the Columbia, to tho mouth of the Owyhee
river. These grants will cover three sections
of hind to every mile of road.
Iu the House, the Uomnutteo on Wars and
Means have introduced a bill appropriating
$100,000 for fortifications at tho mouth of the
Columbia river, ns has been heretofore noticed
in this correspondence ; nnd tho House Com
mittee on Indian Affairs hot reported a bill ap
propriating $120,000 for the purpose of nego
tiating treatiet with the Klamath Lake and
other Indians in Southern and Southeastern
Oregon.
T he bills for a Branch mint at Portland and
for a daily overland mail from Utah to Dalles
City, will probably be reported upon favorably
by the Couimitttoes to wbotn they have bcon
reterreil. The latter Dill is especially Import
ant to the people of Oregon, Washington and
Idaho, as, if successful, it will result in supply
ing thnso regions with mail facilities of a better
character than usual, shortening postal com
munication with the Atiantio status some 8 or
10 days. ,
So it will be teen that Oregon is in a fair
way to have bur share of the benefits tn be de

rior character of her representation in the
House of Representatives, as J. K. MoBrido is

that to secure the attention and aid ol the oth

California and Oregon Kali letting.
Washington, Feb. 11,
To relieve nny uneasiness which mav be felt in
our sister State of Oregon relative to the mail
contract between 8acramonto and Portland, I will
aay that the Postmaster Geueril had advertised
fur mail lettings on that route which wore ae cut
up and divided that it war. apparent that the
whole line would be broken np iuto small sections
which would be mere local accommodations, but
would fail of keeping intact the daily overland
route for the Northern Pacific service These
facts were forcibly presented to the mind of Tost-
master Ucneral Ulairby UieOtegon delegation in
Congress, aud ho has agreed to advertiso for bids
over tno routo ns ueretofore,the time schedule be,
inir tho same as now run on that routo bv the Cnl
ifornia, Stage Company, which will probably bo
the only successful bidder this time.as it has stock
ed the road, and.at considerable sacrifice, carried
the mails with great regularity ever since the
route has been opened. The Post Officn Depart

a new contract can be obtained at such low fig

Fortifications For San Francisco.
The Secretary of War has finallv decided to
pucbase Lime Point fur the National government
to be used for the purpose of fortification. The
parties wno own the property are resident in Bos
ton, and aro willing, it is understood, to sell for
$I,U00. Their agents in San Kraucisco have
been holding out for cold, which has delayed a
eonsuniniatiun of the bargoiu ; but the Secretary
win not pny anytmnir but united States notes, be
the amount great or small, avorring that the De
partment nas no right to depreciate, our National
currency by discriininatinir airainsl it. The hol
ders of the Lime Point property are willing to
mko noien, anu i no iransier will OS mails as soon
as the titlo is aatifacturily ascertained by the Uni
ted Suites District Attorney in Sau Francisco.
Tho price to be paid, conaidorimr the clianuo in
the value of currency, is about one-fourth of that
which was asked for the property by the original
Lime Point swindlers in the days of Uwin, and
though it may still be more thau it ia worth to iu
present owners, there is no question of its value
iu inc uiivuriimeni, tor il must Uo bad fur tbe secu
rity of Pan Francisco harbor.
The War Department bat ducided to erect at
Lime Point, when possession is obtained, some of

and a Board is now in session in this city for the
purpose uf determining upon the svstetn of forti

points. This Board has now under examination
heavy ordnance one atvla of which Is a smooth-
bore cannon for Uud purposes, carrying a ball of
me enormous site ot twenty melius. 11 Is pro
posed to try thia gun and others of a similar char
acter npon some of the fortifications in New York
harbor. What wo want, yuu know, is a gun that
will go through anything, and fortifications aud
vessels that nothing will s;o through what a pity
that we caunot overcome alt the laws of matter

Monterey and Han Diego suitable works for the
defense of those porta Our points of disembar

Government shall defend them all, for in tbe event
of a foreign war any one of thoae ports would be

serious dneigns upon lh Kinancipation Proclama
tion, Intending to modify it after the adjournment

that measure by a bill, the passage of which shall
make emancipation, as proclaimed by the l'resi
dent, tbe law of the land, as well as an accouv

any attempt on tut part of the so-called contorva
