THE NEWS.
l ,Up to Friday, July SKMv, we have no

, ttaoe the 2d of July, Grant' army was then
-1 no all ride of Petersburg, having levered near
ly or qnite all the railroads lending into that
" ' place, and to Richmond.' Richmond papers are
equally at silent as our despatches about niove
- v ments and position wfhoth' armies. This to
'" tal absence of information is quite Inexplicable.

Divisions In the Union pnrty are admitted tn
bo the only hope the onppcrheadt can havo of
accomplishing anything In Novomber. And
while they are holding to tho hope that tho
Cleveland movement may provo a weakening
element iu the Union organization, they uro
teeking to make it nppeor that their pnrty is
hlossed with intento harmony. That the very
reverse is true, ia shown by every movement
they have made. Their national convention
wa originally oallcd on tho 4th of July, but,
at the time drew near, it was found that Grant
with a large army was approaching the de
fense of Richmond, and the power of the
Government wat hanging like an avalanche
over the waning strength of the rebellion.
Alto, in the mean time, MoClellan had made
hit speech ot West Poiut, In which ho warmly
sustained the war policy of the Administration,
thus blasting the hopes of the "pence" wing of
tlio party, who had somehow worked them
selves into the idea that he would yield himself
at a pliaut tool into their hands. Little Mao
was then Itnnio Jiiitely denounced by journals
that had been for months holding him up as tho
representative of "bed-rock democracy." The
organ of the "peaoo" wing immediately came
out in ftivor of a postponement of their con
vention, and the New York Day-Book, tho
leading organ of tho party, tpoko as follows!
" There I little or no chanco of harmony
now. It is almost certain that two democratic
candidate will be in the field, if tho conven
tion meet on the 4th of July. The Journal
of Comment talks as if this were an ordinary
political cauvnsi. It is nothing of the kind.
If the war ii a luccen, the democrati have
)uil about ai much chance of electing their can
did atei at of railing Julius Ceesar from the
dead. If the war democrats do not see thit
now, they will, if they live long enough. The
attempt to get Into office, by clinging to the
tail of the Republican kite, will be the most
miseruble failure cv r made. The effort to he
'sorter war and sorter not war.' will so miti
teato the people, that they will vole for Lin
coln in very disgust of thu democratic political
trickster. We feol convinced that, unless the
politicians are prepared to go to Chicago tn
nominate a mau who lias not thu stain ol bloud
upon his bauds, they had belter postpone tljn
convention until August, at least,,., ''tiiey
".W50"'1"? Cr,"":K5 "conclusion.
wii.!'Abruhara Lincoln iu a straight out issue,
then let tho nominations be made."
Tho "straight out issue'' that the Day Book
want is "peace on any terms," and he will not
support any candidate who Is not nominated
on such a platlortn. The Eugene City Review,
the most utile organ of thu party in thit State,
speak in this wise : .
" Tho erroneous, suicidal policy of declaring
in favor of a prosecution of the war, is nlmosi.
miversitlly condemned, and it is clear that no
military hero or war-howling civilian will be
put forward as the standard-benrer of the de
mocracy of the Republic"
While the Day Book will tolerate no one
who has "the statu of blood upon hit hands,"
and tho Review " no military hero or war
howling civilian," there nro members and sec
ond rate organs of the party in favor of nutu i
naliug Grant or MuC'lellau on a conservative
war platform. This, then, is their harmony.
One wing was for postponing tho convent! on,
in the hope that Grunt might capture Rich
mond before the 29th of August, aud tlien con
sent to be their candidate on a war platfo'.-in ;
the other wing favored the postponement, in
the hope that Grant's campaign would pro vo a
failure before that time, and tome other candi
date might then be brought out and rcshed
through ou a peace platform. But all these
scheme will oome to naught, and, as the Day
Book says, "so nauseate the people, that they
will vote for Lincoln in very disgust of the
democratio political tricksters.''
WE DECLINE.
The Review throw down the gauntlet to the
Stitteiman at follows :
" If the editor of the Statesman prefers pur
sonalities lo loir discussion, however, we give
him fair notice that, while we shall not de
scend to that arena, we will endeavor to show
him thnt we know how to deal with au udver
sary who willthrow mud, and that wi" can
somewhat effectively nsu the scalpel upon the
ugly 'rough' whose choice weapon is thu hind
l'soii. , We ouu very nicely get along ad men
should, neighbor, anil in duly to our readers
we ought to do so, nut It yoa particularly de
sire a bit of a confl lot of the character alluded
to, why, Just pitch in. We court it not, but
rest assured we shall nut he the one lo retrcut
or to cry peccavi."
We beg to decline the contest to which we
are here invited, confessing in ndvance tlis.t we
are no mntoh for the Renew in this sort of
warfare. Iu discussion of facts or in ttrgu
incut, we may sometimes be btuptcd in the
future, a in the past, to refute some- of the
misstatements nf that paper, but when it
comes to "tcalpelt" nnd "bludgeons," wo will
yield as readily as did tho famous coon to Col
Crockett, and come down without wi dting for a
shot.' The Review will undoubtedly ho too
much for us In that line.

Tho Rochester Daily Telegraph was edited
iu 1827 by tho now venerable and famous
Thurlow Weed. On tho 18th October of that
year it contained n long article upon the alleged
discovery nf tho body of Win. Morgan from
which tho following it compiled by Iho Roches
ter Republican of to-day. It will bo remem
bered that Mrgan made some revelations
real or pretended of tho ceremonies and so
oret of Free Masonry. Ho soon nfter disap
peared mysteriously, and the auti-ruasont, a
party just then struggling luto politicul power,
made u vast deal of capital out of the circum
stance. No satisfactory account was over giv
en of Morgan's disappearance, but tho body of
Monro was for a long time believed by a largo
part nf the publio to have been hit. Tho
phrase "Good enough Morgan until after elec
tion," became a, proverb in Now .York and
New England, used to denote any tort of hum
beig or deceit which was used to answer a pret
ext purpose, with expectation of ultimate ex
posure. Tub Mokoan Cash. This stalcmeut it ad
dressed "To the Publick" and it signed bv
Sa muel Works, Fred. F. Backus, Frederick
Whittlesey and Thurlow Weed. Itopensby
saying "the remains of Win. Morgan have
be-on finally found aud fully identified, the com
mittee lose no time in relieving the publick
an xiety, by submitting a history of all thu facts
atiid circumstances connected with thit extrnor
dinary discovery," ., , ' ' ' 1
The report thou goes ou to explaiu huw the
body was found ou the Oth of October, ou the
lake there at Carlton, a coroner's itiqnest held
nod the jury found thai it was a case of drown
inff. The body was interred. On the 12th
in st. the Orleans Whig brought to Rochester a
report of the finding of this body, and the com
mittee ( Weed & Co. ) saw so much resem
blutico to Morgan In the description, that they
culled a meeting hero tn consider the subject of
in i inquiry. Dr. Lzru Strong stated that lie
extrnuted teeth for Morgan, and left such va
oancics in his jaws as were described in the
coroners report in the case of tho body found
-on the lake shore. Messrs. Weed and Mer
chant were appointed a committee to go to
Carlton, wliere the b,piy 'Mat buiV-'d. and make
inqiury. Jil Dyer wat scut tol"UTor
Mr.'! Morgan, and Rochester was in a great
coiumolioii. The body was disinterred and a
new inquest held. There wat a large attend
ance of witnesses, ninny nf whom swore that
the body was that of Morgan. Mrs. Morgan
gave a minute description nf her husband lie
lure she was called to exnitmie the body. ' She
decided that she believed it was her husband's
though the drest wa unlike any that she hud
over seen him wear. Some ol the witnesses
who knew Morgan well, could not identify the
body, while others were very positive, We
subjoin the whole testimony of Weed on this
iuqu st, at it is well understood that he run the
luree for election purposes.
Thurlow Weed, being sworn, lays that he
onuie hero in o iuipauy with others, on Satur
day last, tn examine thu body and that ho us
nisted iu disinterring it. Ho says that Mr. Filch
in describing thu beard and hair of Morgan,
before the grave was opened, stated that his
ears were full of long grey hairs. Upon look
ing into the ears of this body, witness did not
tiud the hairs so thick as Mr. Fitch hud repre
sented, (although several long grey hairs re
mained there ) but in the course of the exam
ination be found a mass of hair loilcid in the
bottom of the ear corresponding with the hair
described by Mr. Fitch, winch bad evidently
dropped out and fell into the ear. Witness
took ibis hair out in tho presence of Mr. Dyser
and Mr. Byingteu. To-day, having a belter
view of thv right eur, many long grey hairs ure
still lo be seen.
'The jury were unanimous in their verdict
that this wns the body of Captain William
Morgan, and that he wits drowned in Niagara
river. The committee concur in the opinion nf
the Jury thank Providence for the discovery
and express a hope that the perpetrators of the
deed may he brotiifht to punishment. Mean
while tbe campaign went on and Weed was in
high glee.
1SV lurninir to tho Daily Advertiser ot tue
2!ii of October, we find two columns nr more
devoted lo refuting the statement of V eed

by the Advertiser that Iho body was fully iden

of the editors of the Adeei liter attended the
examination at Gaines, aud made a report of

report, ten days before, the Advertiser had
rather given up the case, nnd conceded that tho
body was Morgan's. Weed had declared that
it wus n " good enough Morgan till nfter elec

Til K IMrOKTKII VOTKIIS l TO I'OU.
A short time before the luto election, we ns
tcrted, upon evideneo which wo'have no doubt
wat fully reliable, that 'the copperhead party
was then engaged iu Importing persons into
Polk comity, for tho purpose of controlling the
election, in violation of the will ol the resident
voters. Wo alleged that these persons were
not residents that they wero merely hired to
go there temporarily, to feign residence for the
fifteen days which the law fixed its the period
giving the right to vote in any county, and that
they went thero fur no other purpose. The
Review replied with acharacterisiic paragraph,
alleging that the Statesman was raising the cry
of fraud against the copperheads, only to cover
up similar transaction! uf the Union party
This wat repeated onoe or twice, and at I he
tame time that paper howled a great deal
about frauds in Iuaho and other far diitunt
placet. Wo think that tbe Democrat pursued
substantially tho same course, hut aro nut tore
at to it. We thought thit an artful dodge uf
the copperheads to distract attention from their
owu nefariout trausaotioui, and said so plainly.
After the election, we repeated our asser
tions, aud again the copperhead press resound
ed with repeated frauds in behalf of the Union
cause in remote places, and with accusations
of Union frauds in Polk county. We then
made the following propositiou iu the States
man of 13lh Juue :
" Some of the ooppurbeadt nre yet brazen
enough tu repeat the assertion that Union men,
at well at themselves, have been' engaged in
importing votet into Polk county. They don't
pretend any longer to deny that they were en
gaged in thu dirty business, but they attempt
to Justify their fraud by alleging tho same of
thu opposite party. Now, we have a proposi
tion to make to these gentlemen. We will
ngceo to publish the name of every person they
name at one of the stock imported by Union
men, with the evidence they adduce, rebutting
the same by counter testimony, provided the
Review and Democrat will alto publish the
uauies of those we allege were imported by the
copperheads with like evidence. What do you
'!') , gcnlleiiifti f Uu you agree I II union
men have neon guilty oi irauns mey ought tn
he exposed, nnd the Statesman it a very good
medium uiruugu wniun to uo it
We thought this proposition eminently fair,
and calculated to elicit the troth fur the bene
fit of tho public. Tbe Democrat maintained
a discreet tilenoe npon the subject, while the
Review copied ouly the dosing sentence of our
short article, aud snappishly asked why wo did
not publish the accounts of fraud in Idaho !
The Oregon Arena is published and edited
by the tame partiet who performed tho . like
offices for the Albany Democrat. It tukes the
mutter np, iu its lost issue, explicitly admits
that members of its own party wero engaged
in the "dirty business," pretends to condemn
it, but goes on to stuto that thu importations
into Polk wero the mutual work of both parties.
Indeed, it Bays : : . '
"Yet all this time members of tho party of
the Statesman w oru guilty ol importing voters
into Polk county ; and not mil this, but we
lielicve It to ue true, literally true and the
evidence will bo forthcoming, if necessary
that parties connected Willi tho editorial do-
purtmeiit of the Statesman, were cognizant of
and were not discouraging such importation.
We believe the Statesman has raised
the 'stop thief cry to evade suspicion."
It defiantly challenges the Statesman to deny
thete charge".
' Now, so far Its persons " connected with the
editorial department of tho Statesman aro ooti-
oerued, the Arena knows, if it knows unything
about it, that the charge It wholly false. We
simply deny it and call for the proof. If the
Irenn can furnish it, it will he all right. IMt
cannot, It will stand convicted. In the second
week of its existence, of willful and malicious
falsehood. If the conductors of the Arena had
the horror of such frauds which it now pretends,
and bad any evideuco against Union men,
would they nut have published tho same in the
Democrat
We now renew our offer to that paper, and
to tho Review also ( if it choose to bo counted
in).
Will they publish the names of all Iho im
ported stock ? Wo are quite ready to do so.
We propose to show at tho tame lime, that
the Democratio party was cognizant of the
transaction; was a party to it, aud ought to be
held responsible fr it.
We wait for nn acceptance or rejection of our
proposition by the Review and Arena.
Return from Idaho. A resident of Yreka.

Sac. Union.
We find some inch paragraph as this in
nearly every newspaper published iu California.
There is scarcely a shadow of loundation for
the statement. Calilornia has f..rnished nearly
every year since 18.")S, a crowd of adventurers
to some one or another of the new gold-field
uorlh nnd east of here. They have usually
gone up in the wiuter and earl) spring, aud by
uiid-suiniuer largo numbers ot them have been
ready to return. So uniform has been this
practice, that thu farmer of Willamette and
L'mpqus havo relied somewhat npon this class
Tor help in harvest time. This year has proved
an exception. It is rare to seo a returning
miner going south very rare. 1 There It not
one now where there were twenty in 1803, nr a
hundred and twenty Iu 1SC. Our accounts
from the Hoiso mines report great scarcity of
of water lit consequence nf the extraordinary

Portland. Oiiroon, July 9, 18(14
With Isaiah of old, Oregon may exclaim,
" Woo is mo! I am undone!" nr rather done by
a professional tourist, who after having skim

distorted vision upon me. It happened iu thit
Way ! At puffer and claauer to Bierstadt,
(a quiet and gentlemanly Teuton of the brush
a I'd easel) one FitZ Hugh Ludlow had tho mis
fortune to past through Oregon last full, on his
way from Shasta Peak to Portland. After pol
ishing hit wayside fancies for full six mouths,
he has played the " Dickens" with us in the
columns nf the Golden Era of the 12th and
19th ult. The book is in two short chapters,
entitled tho " Portland Prisoner! an histor
ical novel of thu present, past and future." It
ia written Iu the inelo-dminatio manner of Syl
vnnns Cobb. It contains many a lame attempt
at wit, tome fine writing and "almost no truth
at all." Up-country people tell me that ho
wat generally regarded as ft bore, nod on no
count of his dirty apparel aud personal uoolcnn
liuess, put in the dirty bed kept for suspicions
characters. In this way our friend Filz may
huve had his finer sensibilities hurt; hut whnse
fault was it? If Filz wants a clean bed and In
tit next tn cleau people at the table, he should
wear clean linen, and not dirty flannel that
looked like the natural haunt of those trouble
some parasites of which he loves tu write. Be
sides. Fttz wanted a great deal of waiting on,
and then often higgled about the bill, and some-
tiinesMit ojv n -rmhi .oC'tlHtinmt nctng out of
money." Heggars should not he choosers, nor
export a penny to buy more than 4 peonys
wortb, even at tho hands of a tourist. On the
steamboat between hero and Salem Fitz was
unmannerly enough to throw himself on a clean
bed, with his precious logs enclosed in dirty
high-tops, covered with slate mud, aud then
grumble because be wus not put through us a
deadhead.
I udmit that Long Tom might improve its
cookery without injury to its stomach; but after
all. cookery is uot the chief on I of man, nor are
tho people who mnke a god uf their bellies to
be considered the highest type of the race.
Cull the roll of yoyr battle-fields and see who
has best home tbe heat of the day macaroni,
or corn dodeere. How often duriue tint war
has the delicate and sensitive hnioau product of
fashionable cookery and high laving gone down
before the strong muscle of "hog and hominy."
A little judicious criticism in a friendly spirit
might do Long Tom sonic good in relation to
its culinary modes, but such broad caricnlure
and wludo uloth libs ns our friend Fitz indulges
ill can have no effect but to make it reject tho
advice and despise the adviser.
. Iu Portland, Fitz dressed a la mode, and
looked the dem foin to a dot. What ho saw of
Portland was probably the limited view from
his hotel window. He seldom put his nose out
side of hi room, except to ask if the steamer
wa commit. Poor soul! be was delayed in
Portland, at a comfortable hotel, for thu space
of three days, waiting for the steamer, and his
(ulVurings were so iuloleraule because it rained,
that he must lain write a hook about it. We
may do friend Fitz injustice, but between him
self and his book ue Oregouians have tet him
down as a first-class squirt on paper a dull
one and ou the road a disuereealile one.
. In Fitz' Atlantic Monthly ( April) article,
entitled "Among the Morinous."' ho shows how
a readable paragraph may be drawn from the
lanoy and put upon the wuriu as a met. in
this lie descrdiet the deserts uf the Plains its
being filled with natural obelisks, castles and
fortresses, done iu argillaceous sandstone, and
then accounts for their existence by the agency
of wind. New this wind instrument it ns much
nn invention as the supposed effects nf it. A
eric of big wiuu nugurs are generated in the
spiral canyons of the Rocky Mountains, which
after getting the gimlet shape nnd motion from
these great crooked moulds, go careering about
the desert, boring down and through the "fria
ble ent" of the country, leaving behind them
structures euuul in architecture to the Gnlliio
Cathedral, and equal in size to the Pyramid of
Chuups. Alter such a windy irealt ol unagina
tiuu, I think Fitz is entitled to havo his Hue old
patronymic cliauged to Hi(mi)W. In confer
ring the heraldic name, the following appropri
ate ritual may he used, by express permission
of the uuthor: " Hoc audi. Homo, christened
Filz Hugh Ludlow. From this time henceforth,
knighted Fitz,- You Bigblow.''
THE Ll'LL IX TUE STORM.
There is a lull in the battle storm, nnd. as is
usual in tuch cases, predictions are allout thnt
Grant, after all. will fail us ut this pinch nnd
that Lee will yet prove his master. Those
persons who were sanguine enongh to believe
that Grant would march into Richmond unop
posed, and end the rebellion nnd destroy its
principal army, in the space of n few days,
must nf course lie discouraged nt the present
suite of things. Bat Inst year Grant was
nearly as long iu gelling to the rear of Vicks
burg ns he has been in gcttmtr tn his present
position before Richmond. Resides, we are
not to lose sight nf he fact that the prepara
tions of the army which has opposed him this
year have been vastly more elaborate and com
plete than those nf the army which he forced
lo cnpiliilaiioii at Yicksburg. He encountered
stubborn resistance from Lee at the onset, ami
Leu apparently means to offer still further, and
that stubborn, opposition to his turther pro
gress. What else can he do! He is driven to
the very gates of Richmond almost. He must
fight betore shutting himself within it. He
loses all at one move by entering the city. He
unquestionably hns a mighty force still left, and
is doubtless reinforced lo Iho extent nf the
Confederacy's ability. But Grunt is working
hint sorely, if he be nt present slowly, and it
behooves the country to have faith and pa
tience. His plans are -s sealed book both to
the loyal North and lo the rebel leaders South.
This, of itself, is worth fifty thousand men.
His combinations, wjien known, still leave the
rebel in anxiety and dispense, and pot them
at Iheir wit's end, even then, to divine ou what
point bit blow will descend. Tbey are thus
necessitated to prepare for his reception every
where, and can consequently oppose hint over
whelmingly nowhere. Every step we have
taken has been one of progress, and though
the end is not yet, tt approaches.
Imnknsk Fruit Yield. The Stockton
dependent speaks very glowingly of the fruit
prospect in its county. It says t
Never before d'd this Valley present mrh
magnificent crops of peaches, nectarines, apri
cots, apples, pears, melons and grapes as this
year ; and lliey are all. moreover, of I lie finest
site and ft 'Vor. The Rough and Ready ranch,
containing not much over ten nr filteen acres of
f;rouml in cultivation, situated three miles be
ow this city, presents such a spectacle nf ahun
dance and heanty in the fruit and vegetable
line as we never before be!,Kd. The trees are
literally all breaking down with fruit plums,
nectarines, peaches and apples of tho richest
color and flavor and a size truly astonishing.
Very different from the prospect! in Oregon.
Ouly a very small yield of fruit it vouchsafed
to us this year. Tho early apples nro almost
entirely a failure, while the crop of winter fruit
is not one eighth of what it wa lust year.
Peaches, plums and nectarines have failed
more completely eveu than apples. These re
marks ouly apply to thu central part of Wil
lamette valley. We have bat little Informa
tion from ether teotiuu.

Sonio time sines, about 7lM puiiuds of rock were
brought from these mint's by tbo Sniitiiini Com
pany and sent to Han Francisco fur assay. In
this ruck thero was uo gold or silver visible to tho
naked eyu. It was taknu entirely from tho cas
ings or surl'aco of tho lead, and in quality con
sidered far less than average. Returns from thit
assay havo just been received. The rock yielded
at tho rale of twcnty-ono dollars to tho tun 11
In silver uud $10 in gold. Ill ordur to decide
from this assay whether tbo mine will pay er not
it is necussary to know a few general facts :
Tbe rock from Ilia lould' it Curry, the richest
quarts niluo In tho world, lias averaged at tbo rate
of eighty dollars to the ton. ' This initio hat been
worked at a cost of soventy flvo per cent, on all
the silver taken out, and notwithstanding this
Immense cost, largo dividends havo boon declar
ed. Th "wood used In working it is hauled a dis
tance of sixteen miles and coats fourteen dollars
per cord. Othor nrticlnt, that havo to be trans
ported across the Sierra Ncvndas, cost ill propor

toon situated as it It in a region ns well supplied
with wood nnd water as any spot in tho world,
aud only seventy miles from water navigation,
capable of being reached with a rensonablo amount
of labor, by n good nago road. Again, experi
ence hat shown that where wood enn be obtained
at three dollars por cord, rock that yields eight
dollars to tho ton will pay for working. Wo think
It may bo safoly taid that it would be difficult to
imagine the existence of mines that could be
worked with lost expense and trouble than those

We arrive at tho conclusion then by what socms
to us a fair train of reasoning, that Siintlnui will
pay. Those Interested in then) seem to have con
fidence, for thoy aro now bravely at work, laying
out wagon roads, buying quarta crushers and ma
chinery every preparation for actual mining op

ESTIMATE OF LINCOLN.
Hon. II. J. Raymond of New York, told the
following circumstance nt n notification meet
ing in New Y'ork, held immediately after the
Baltimore Convention. It wns understood Hint
Mr Sewnrd was tho "distinguished member of
the government." referred to:
After this war had been going nn for nhotit a
year yon nil remember that the hearts of a great
many people waxed faint at the prospect before
them. Mr. Lincoln had not shown them as
fully as he has done since, the thorough adapta
tion to the crisis upon w hich his lot was cast.
I happened to be in Washington at the time,
and heard a remark made by one nf Hie most
distinguished members of the government, ( I
don't feel at liberty to call his name, ) in a pri
vate circle, at which the general tone of remark
was in disparagement of the President. The
gentleman listened lo the w hole discourse and
then said : " Well, gentlemen, 1 beg lo mnke a
remark lo which I suppose you will nut assent.
I suppose, tnid he, first. Hint you all believe
that Washington wat raited by a special Prov
idence to carry our country through (he wnr for
our independence." They all said' " Yes, nn
doubt of it." Said he, " Well, I have made it
my business to study the cbarnctcr nf Abraham
Lincoln. I have done it thoroughly; I believe
I appreciate it; I think I understand his weak
ness and his strength; I believe that I know
ever)- element that enters into hit management
or publio questions, and I tell yuu to-day, as the
result of that ttudy, what you will not unw be
lieve, but which you will believe one year from
to-day, and what the great body ol the people
will believe before hit first term it over, that
Abraham Lincoln win as truly raised up to car
ry thit country safely through Iho perils nf Ibis
rebellion nt N ashington wat to carry ns through
our revolution" (applause.) nnd I believe thai
events will justify that sagacious aud just re-
mark.
