l'oui'LANi), July 23. 1804.
Ed, Statesman We shall endeavor to
assist your enterprise by collating items that
may be of Interest to your readers, Iroiu this
tbo metropolis of Oregon.
The good citizens uf this city have lint just
recovered from their surprise, itt the nnnounoo
ment of the fact that tho vexed "Cttpltnl ques
tion" has been finally decided iu favor of your
burgh lor the next Ueuty years. At first
there was a feeling of having been mid, for we
fondly imagined that Portland would he the
favored locality, at S"tno future day, and con
sequently remained (niet, with these pleasing
utitieipatluiis ; but it "chuugu lias come o'er
tint spirit uf our d renins," anil, unou mature
oonslderution, wo rejoice that Huloni, one of the
best places for the statu capital, should liave
received a verdict in its favor, from to honest
yeomanry of yc land of webl'eet.
For a lime stock lever lieciiuio epidetmo in
oar midst, and affected many who had anticipa
tions to become wealthy naliobi, by (peculating
in lluise and Snntiain shares ; but we Oregon-
tans are u cautious set of liombrca, uml uller
the moinentui'y excitement quieted down, with
fond asstiruuoes of ultimiilu success, on a sc
our e basis, In a legitimate war, from ititliw-
tioni of mineral Wealth, hotli iu gautiuui and
Boise gold and silver lends. From the report
of the party of gentlemen, from this city ho
lately visited the Suntiiiiii, those who lire not
onmiiers have every confidence that at no dis
tant day neli lu-ds or mineral wealth will be
there opened that will give a new impetus to
the denizens of the Willamette Valley.
Our city Is Inst assuming the characteristics
of a metropolis. Low doggeries nnd Inirdy
gurdy" sah Otis are by nn means nncominou,
and render night hideous by their riot and rev-
ilry. An attempt by tho tuural portion t the
community tins been miidu to rid ns of these
nuisances ; but our worthy city council, from
some causa unknown, are unwilling to assume
the responsibility of putting ii quietus on these
establishments, as would appear by their action
on Hie Miliject their lust meeting.
Wo see it stated in tho Portland correspon
dence of tho.l(u. that our Library Associa
tion is a failure. This is not a fact. Through
tho exertions uf the indefatigable VVukoGeltl,
it is a decided lucem, mid is now a permanent
institution. 1 ha rooms are elegantly fitted up,
nnd everybody adds to tho amount of material
lor tutellectu 'I repasts to tuo members and
friends of the Library. It is renlly the best
place in tho city for one to enjoy a complete
otitim cum dignllale with his friends Iroin the
country, over a deltoato cigar, playing ft game
of chess, or rending nf the successes of Grant
uiih nuormuii, or in utu ueariy respouees iu me
nomination of Lincoln and Andy.
Business is dull, and, iu consequence, onr
city does not present such a spectacle nf bustle
and activity as it did a few uonths ago ; hut
we are patiently waiting for Fiat good time to
come soon again, when the faces nf our busi
ness will nguiti be wreathed in smiles to attend
to profitable orders from up country.

nated to the sanitary Commission Iroiu this

C'wt'wn (uys that telegrams from Gen. Sherman
say thu enemy attacked Thomas fiercely on'

roughly handled. Tho Union adds, the armies
ant now on level ground, where the fighting
will bp more equal. ' ,,
One hundred and fifty rebel women from

Nkw Vohk. July 23 flerald'i Nashville
dispntch says Gen. Honsseftti left Decatur nn
the 10th, on a most important raid, with ft
force of 20,000, well mounted, one thousand of
whom are armed with Spencers repeating rifle.
The route tuken is one never before followed
iluring tlie war, hut is most identical with the
track pursued by Jackson in the war with thn
Creek Indians. The first point of any impnr
tiince is Bluuntsvillc, five miles beyond Coosa
river. Thence they move ranidty upon Talla..
ecu, and the nearest bridge or ford over the
Tullupoosa river. The route between these
two streams is being rapidly pursued, and the
briilgiw completely destroyed. Tho passage of
the Tullapoosa will probably be mado at To-
pcKa. i ins win bring tne force to uadesvilie
iiiountnin road, which will carry them to the
railroad at several points. The work of do.
strttction will then begin. Thero are eight
ridges on the railroad between Montgomery

oute are three bridges. Returning after the

Another Nashville telegram says the success
f Sherman's move cutting the eastern section
f communication with Atlanta lends to the be
ef that the rebels have been foiled in the at
tempt to escape, nnd that operations at that
place have been narrowed dowq to a siege
A largo cavalry Inrco some time since left army

Macon and Columbus road in such a manner
that if the enemy leaves the city to go South

Lee commands Polk's old Department.
Riclinrdson has been superseded by Neely, he
having been charged with making $2,000,000
nut of tint conscript business. Allen confirms
the previous rep rt of wounding of 1' orrest at

Sherman commenced crossing the Chntta-

On the mnrinue ol the 18ili, the advance

of the track.
On the morning nf the 20th, IIownrd,Hookcr

the following :
Tho city la-t nirlit was foil of rvrltinr rn

and yesteiduy afternoon, the 2jth instant,
occupied Martinsbirg. where they cut tele
graph Jlire, and commenced destruction of
track rn Baltimore and Ohio R. H. Our forces
were concentrating at Harper's Ferry. It is
rumored, tlie rebels were in large force, under
Early and Breckinridge. Object of rehrls is
doubtless to give tima for their trains of plun
der to get sray, and to secure portion of crops
lo Shenandoah valley.
Probably they may again make a raid into
Maryland lor more plunder.
We have nothing authentic ns to the extent
of the disaster to our fotces beyond Winches

ill. Kelly and Mulligan.
We lesrn that orders were sent for the remov
al of the army medical stores from Prederiuksu

loyal leaguers of Baltimore. It is reported
that a heavy fight hud taken place between
