ABSKNTEKS Kit DM EKBKL ARMY.
There i nothing more significant from the
Conthieveracy than the constant dwelling, by
Juff. Davis iii hit spceolie', upou the number
. of aliaenteea from the rebel army. At Mauou,
Montgomery, and Anguita, Georgiu, aud at
Columbia, South Carolina, he dwelt in a mark
ed manner upou this subject, atatiug at Macon
that not leas than turn thirds of all the Confed
erate armies weru absent and most of this num
ber, without leave. Jeff, drew a lively picture
of the grand suooesses which his armies might
win, if these deserters could only be returned
to lite ranks. But Jeff, unaccountably, proba
bly purposely, overlouked the foot aud thus
deceived his hearers that, very few only of
theiu runaway men, can be g. t back, having
got tired enough of the treason-mill, to risk
their, lives in the attempt to escape ; and are
now mostly safe enough from Jeff's oonsoription.
Instead of seeing the runaways returning in
sijuada, companies, regiments, and brigades to
march joyfully lo victory or the grave under
the stars aud bars rattlesnake iiioloded Jeff
is very likely to find, before another year is end
ed, bis decimated arniiol twu-lhirds less than
even now. Just as rats desert a sinking ship,
the soldiers of the rebel army are going to leave
the service of a conspiracy which an overwhelm
ing majority of tlfu people of the North, has
just declared, shall sink.
Votino Unukh Protest. We learu that
in many precincts, the votes of immigrants i.f
less than six months' residence were received
by the judges of election under prr.tost, with
the eipectatiun that they would be thrown out
by the county canva'sera. The law requires
the judges to reoeire votes when sworn in un
less evidence, satisfactory to the lodges, be
furnished that the vote is fraudulent, Keociviiig
them under protest amounts to nothing. The
votes must be rejected by the judges or they
must be counted, tho county oanvossrra having
uo power to alter the returns. Having been
returned to the oonnty officers, the votes oast
fraudulently can only be purged out by trial In
the courts.
Ratiikk Slow. The recruiting oflioer in
tho upper river counties thiuk the authorities
who superintend recruiting are rai her slow.
Officer who have been ooinmissinneil two weeks
r more, have not yet been furnished with the
necessary paper for enlisting and mustering
in. There is danger that the young men of
the present age will be loo old before they get
a chance lo volunteer.
fr A mild outemporary in its last issue rsks
the qnestion, "Are we in t lie United State ?"
We have made diligeut inquiry of seven
lawyer, two doctors, three politicians, four
luuilsilts, two war democrats, twit "regular"
democrats, and lour Union men, and from the
response of all, we have ooine tn Ihe conclu
sion that we can safely answer, "We thiuk we
are, if the court know herself and she think
she do." "
Is7" The dispatches indicate that Lincoln is
probably elected. His electoral Tote is in the
immediate neighborhood of 20(1, while Little
Mac's is 21 or thereabout. Official figure may
ohange this) so that Lincoln's majority will not
he greater than 183. We think that pretfy
aafe.

If Lincoln is elected. Orchard it to pack a like
load from his house to Delashajotla a distance
of two miles. Two days publio notice it to be

KEUItO SOLDIERS.
Since the news of the movements in the
rebel Congress in relation to employment of
negroes in tho army, we have been wondering
what the copperhead newspapers would say
about it. Whether they would characterize it
as inhuman, demoniac, and return to the bar
barous ages. Whether they would fiercely as
sail the patriotism, iutelligcnoo and humanity
of the rebel Congress mon who propose the
measure. Whether Ihey would denounco the
whole rebel administration asbrutul and fanatic.
Whether they would solemnly resolve in con
vention, (he four years' experiment of war for
independence "a failure."
Having dune all this, and much more, in re
lation the administration at Washington, will
they now approve, or disapprove, the sumo
things dune ut Richmond, or will they do nei
ther, hut as usual, remain silent .
Comb Along Now. Lieut. Reynolds has
received the neuess iry papers for enlisting.
All who want to go soldiering can now walk
right up to the Lieutenant's office and enrol
their names. Subscriptions fur n private boun
ty, have been lot on foot with a flattering pros
pect of getting a good round sum. With the
United States pay and bounty, the ttntu and
private bouuties, soldiering now, will pay.

A Hl'KKlU BY jm DAVIS.
The following speech, made by Jeff Davis,
at Mneoni Georgia, on Sept. 23d, is extracted
from the columns of the Mnoon Telegraph If
Confederate, of Sept. 24lh i
Ladies and Gentlemen, Friends and Fel
low Citizens: It would have gladdened my
heart to hnve met yon In prosperity instead of
adversity. Hut friends nre drawn together in
adversity. The son of a Georgian who fought
llirnugh'tho first Revolution, I would be untrue
to myself if I should forget the State in her
day of peri . What though misfortune ha
befallen our arms from Decatur to Jooesboro,
our causa Is not lost. Sherman cannot keep
up his long line of communication, aud re
treat, sooner or later, he must t and when that
day conies the fate that befell the army of the
Frunoll Empire in Its retreat from Moscow will
be re-enuuted. Our eartilry and onr penplo
will harass and destroy his army as did tho
Cossacks that of Napoleon; Mid the Yankee
General, like him, will escape with only a body
guard. How can this be the most speedily ef
fected? Hy the absentees of Hood's army re
turning to their posts; and will Ihey not! Can
they see the banished exile, can they hear tho
wail of 'heir suffering countrywomen and chil
dren, and not cornel By what influences they
are made to stay away, it is not necessary to
speak. If there is one who will stay away at
this hour, he is unworthy of the name of Geor
gian. To tho women no appeal is necessary.
They are like the Spartan mothers of old. I
know of oue who has lost all her sons except
one of eight years. She w rote that she want
ed mu to reserve a plaoe for him in the ranks.
The venerable Gen. Polk, to whom I read the
letter, knew that woman well, and suid it was
characteristic of her; but I will not weary you
hy turning aside to relate the various incidents
of giving up tlie last son lo the cause of onr
oountry, known to me. Wherever we go we
find the heart and bauds of our noble wirmcii
enlisted. They are seen wherever the eye may
fall or. the step turn. They have one duty to
perforin: to buoy up the heart of nor people.
I know the deep disgrace felt by Georgia at
onr army falling hack from Daltmi to the inte
rior of i lie Stale. But I was not of 'those who
considered Atlanta lost when our army crossed
tho Chattahoochee. I resolved that it should
not. uud 1 then put a man in command who I
knew would strike a manly blow for the city,
and many a Yankee's blood was made to nour
ish the soil before tho prize was won. It does
not become us lo reveit to disaster. Let the
dead bury ike dead. Let us, with one arm
and one effort, endeavor to crush Sherman. I
am going In the army to confer with our Gen
erals. Tho eud must be the defeat of our en
emy. You have not many men be
tween 18 and 45 left. The boys, God bless
the bnjt, are as rapidly as ihey become old
enough going to tho field. The city of Macon
is filled with stores, sick and wounded. It
must not bu abandoned when threatened, but
when the enemy come, instead of calling upon
Hood's army for delense, the old men must
fight, and when the enemy is driven beyond
Chattanooga, Ihey loo onii join iu tho general
rejoicing. ,
It is not proper for mo to speak of the num
ber of men in I lie field, but this 1 will say, that
two-thirds of our men are absent, some side,
some wounded, but most of then absent without
leave. The man who repents and goes back
to his commander voluiiterialy, appeals strong
ly to execuiive clemency. But suppose he
stays away until the war is over, aud bis com
rades return home, and when every man's his
tory will be told, where will he shield himself.
It is upon these reflections that I rely lo make
men return to their duty, but after conferring
with our Geuerul at headquarters, if there
be any oilier remedy it shall be applied. I
love my friends and forgive my enemies.
I have been asked to (end rcinlorcemente
from Virginia lo Georgia. Iu Virginia tho
disparity in numbers is just a great as it is in
Georgiu. Then I have been osked why the
army sent lo the tthenuudoah Valley was not
sent here, ll was because an army of the en
emy had penetrated that valle lo the very gales
of LanuhliurK, aud Geu. Kerly was sent lo

so, Sherman's march into Georgia is a raid.
What would prevent them now if Gen. Early

I counselled with that great ami grave soldier
Gen. Lee, npon all these points. My mind
roamed over the whole field. With this we
can succeed. If one-half Ihe men now ab
sent without leuve, will return to duty, we oan
defeat the enemy. With that hope I am go
ing to the front. 1 may not realize this hope, hot
1 know there are men there who have looked

Let no one despond. Let no oue distrust, and

OREGON, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 21.18G4,
FIGHTING PHIL. 8UEU1DAN.
This dashing young General is oocupying a
large share of publio attention juet now on ac
count of his glorious tuooesset In the Valley of
the Shenandoah. Anything relating to him
cannot fail to prove acceptable, and we there
fore readily give the following aketch of him aa
he waa known while ou thia coast. It it furn
ished by a correspondent of the San Franoisoo
Call : i
"Philip H. Sheridan, when I first made hit
acquaintance in 1858, at Fort Yamhill, in Ore.
gou, was Seomd Lieutenant, Company K,
Fourth Regiment Infantry. Captain David Rut
tell, commanding. Sheriduo had the reputa
tion among hit men of a brave oflioer nono
more so in the "Fighting Fourth.'' He served
with distinction in Oregon and Wosliiiigton
Territory, during die Indian troubles, and was
in command of cavalry detachments. All the
soldiers 1 have known, whu have served under
eridan, speak of him as a brave officer, and
I know ther huh Uved aud feared him. I wa
at the same post with him for two consecutive
Winters; but all that 1 can say ot my own
knowledge of hi military power, i that he
wat a splendid horwiuan. JJuruig my residence
with hito he had ni opportunity of displaying
hi accomplishment at a soldier in active ser
vice. Sherman Is moots leel 8 inches in lilitut,
spare built, has a tank, open couutenanoe.and
ins eye is n lieauty clear and commamliuz, It
can, when he is excited, make any man cower.
Urdnancu-berueniH Umerty, recently stationed
at Fort Point, can attest the truth as to the ef-
lect his eye hot ou men deserving a reprimand.
Sheridan went east with Ids reiriiuent at the
commencement uf the war, aud I often won
dered he did not make hiuvelf conspicuous as a
great soldier before the pieseut time. He en
terod the contest at Stem d IJculenunl ol an
Infantry Regiment, and therefore hit prespectt
for advancement were anything but promising.
If he were not a soldier, tried und true, and a
General of more than ordinary ability, he uever
could havo rxchauged llu humble Lieutenant's
shoulder-straps for the Major-Genornl't hand
somer ornament. I think if )ou consult the
Army Register fur 1856, lou will find Sheridau
to lie Irish by birth, und lhat ho went to West
mint I mm Massachusetts, it not actually
horn iu tho laud of warrisrs, he is at least ol
Irish parentage." I
Shetidan was appoint'd Uricadier General
of i.'' Volunteers from Ohio; his commission
us such it dated July 1, 1WU. The National
Alniunao gives Ohio as his birthplace. It will
be recollected thnt Grunt recommended he be
made Brigadier General of the Regular Army,
after his hist deoisive victory over Early, in the
Valley; uud the request was promptly coin-
plied with by the authorities at Washington.

Astoria, Nov. 12, 18G4.
Eu. Statesman: We have met the enemy

knuw that Lee basti'y detached a colum uf
ten thousand Irom Petersburg, and hurried
them to Richmond to meet this unexpected
attack, and high officers who participated in

Meade's opportunity. Grant had him prompt

effort, suuh aa Butler made on the inirih side,
ought to have carries! it. At this point the

We kuuw, however, that the Sotithaide rail
