Apologetic We owe an apology to our readcru for having uiudcuvouded in several nf our bite issues to "answer a fool according to hli folly."

Some timo since tbo Corvallii Gazette pub lished a cointntinicalion iu reference lu Yiiquiint Hay and Pnithind. which aroused tho iro of the Oregonian. Thu Gaietlc copies the paragraph and comes back at lliu Orrfoiiian with fuels aud figures as follows : " A biisineis man in Ibis cily has laid on our table, at our reum-st, the bills of oh rges on a lot of freight from New Yurlt lo Corvallis, nil paid and receipted.

Several strong Union Journals 011 this coast have raised objections to that part of tho i 'res ident's Message referring to the election, in which lis expresses the belief that a large ma jority of the party that snpported McClellau have a real desire to see the national cause triumph. Those journals seem to think if be referred to that nuriv in nny way, he should speak of them in a body as notional enemies. We do nut wish lo appear ns thu champion ol a doouuieitt which contains convincing arg -meals to support all its positions, but we think a second thought will convince any one that the ('resident is right. We believe the party supporting Lincoln nml Johnson was "the Union party," mid that thu parly opposing them, ns it party, was ill recti) the opposite. Yet wedoiiol mean by llii tbat every member of lint party is a disunion ist. When we sneak of the United Stales or Gre:.t llritaiu as Christian notions, we iln not by any mentis iutcnu to convey the idea thai every Englishman and American is necessarily a Christian. There was a time when France was referred to us "itilidel Friiicc" Yet it is liy 110 means true that every eiti.cn of Unit vast nation bad renounced lliu Christian re ligion. Every enlightened man can now see that the main olilect of tho llreckmridgi! movement. I'V which tbo democratic parly was divided and aen-mca 111 louu, was 10 "nre tlie SniilhiTit heart and precipitu e the cnflon Hlates into re bullion." Yet it would be. absurd to charge that every mnn who voted for the Kentucky traitor had such a design ns this. Many of tbotr men, since the struggle commenced, have proven their devotion to their country, biith in the rank of thu army nnd as its leaders, We believe the plotting, wire-working schemers who managed things tit Chicago were in warm sympathy with the conspirators of the South, and that their great aim was lo bring about such a disorganization nt the Ninth ns would have resulted in tbo overthrow of the government. McClellau was not one of those runnagers. Ho was simply nsed ns it stool pigeon by which t lie enemies of our country Imped to lure a eullicietit number of honest men into llieir support to make their disorgan izing schemes successful. The game proved a failure it is true, yet it succeeded iu securing lite support of numbers), w ho, if Wood or Vul anilighain bad been thu nominees, would have sacrificed nny interest rather than support that parly. Wo nre among the number of those who be lieve a vast majority of the people of tlie Uni ted States, taking both North and South in one body, are in favor of suppressing this rebellion of maintaining peace and order where lln-y now exist, and of re establishing the constitu tional national authority over every foot of our domain. As we have often said, we do not be lieve this to be u seclionnl war. It is a war which a small factiou iu tbo South lias succeed ed in ingnuiating by deceiving an unenlighten ed majority, and which would be openly sup ported by a small faction nf sympathizers in the North if nn tnlifihtened majority did nut hold them in check. They dare not support the rebel lenders openly ; by doing en invert iy they secure the co operalii.11 of mnny whu would otherwise spurn association with lliem n with Hie Vilest of traitors The Inllnwiug is the portion 1 f the lin s.-ogi- alliided lo, and lielieve it coiiiinns a truth that sho:,lil give ns cniili.'ciicc In the iiliiiiuile triumph of our cause : "Nut only lliu e who supported the Uui"ii ticket, so culled, but a gri-ul uinjoiilr of lie' opposing party al.-o may be luiily el aimed li.

At the instance of Mr. (iillctlo, llie member from Clatsop, the last Legislative Assembly amended thu piiut law of tho Columbia river 0 us to authorize any citizen of the L'nii'il States, or a cntporalioti loriued under the laws of this State, lo build a steam pilot and tug boat, with sufficient capacity and strength to tow any vessel over tlie Colombia river bar that cun cross it. Tlie boat is to be built, 111 Hilled anil 1 quipped to Hie satisfaction ol the Pilot Commissi rs. and thereupon such com missioners me required to revoke all licenses to pilots beietolore issued, and thereafter liol lo license any pilot other than ihose belonging to such lug boat su long as the same is kept and maintained upon the bar tnthe satisfaction ami approval nf the eoinmissioiiers. this en actment if curried in' eil'-et. will exclude all competition between the pilots . f this lug boat and any others.

At present sail vessels are alii list lse!i-ss as a means of transporting much of 'be freight that is curried to and fro between here ami S.in Francisco. As it is, hclwe 11 waiting for a smooth bar ami a fuvniahl . iml mid tide, the chances nf delay at the bur are so great, es pecially between I he months nf October and May, that all shipments requiring dispatch are made 1111 the steam rs. Hill let there lie a proper steam lug on the bar. manned with com petent pilots to tow said vessels over the bur iuiinediulely upon llieir arrival outside or in, the bulk of thu goods now coming up on the steamer, would be shlt ued by sail vessels at line half III" cost, and infinitely mure iiccoin mudatinu and satislactiuii to sliipp rs. Tin prest lit line of steamers, tmucd in Caldoi uia have thu trade iu their mvu bunds. Tin amount nf capital necessary to put a sleaiuer on the trade Is so much that it prevents com petition. It costs ns much tu freight gouds from Sun Francisco to l'nrlluud as it dues from New York to the former p ace tin the Horn. Itesides, these steamers run ulgnut expense, mid being engaged iu the carriage ol passen gers also, whilu in port discharging or receiv ing cargo, every interest uf the shipper is made subservient In the one em1 uf hum iug nit'. Hut the great disadvantage arises 111 shipping freight, mostly produce, uml much uf it per ishable, from Oregon to San Francisco and neighboring ports. Once, sail vessels could rely 011 tin mil caigo of lumber, which ol course Would keep as long us the ship, but sometimes too long lur the imirl et. Hut the demand for the lumber ut Po tlaiid is fast glowing equal tu its muni. fiictmc on the Culumbia aud luwer Willamette rivers.

Sail vessels now charge seven dollars per ton without primage. With a sufficient steam lug In tow vessels ncmss tlie bar u sad vessel cull come in uml go nut of the rivers whenever steamer can. I' is Ihe opinion of experienced men. Hint witli such advantages, for nine-tenths uf the year, there need bo no materia' delay in Ihe arrival and departure of sail vessel Then Hie ritk ol crossing the bar will bu proportionally ilinuii ished, and these two great savings 1 f lime and risk, will enable sail vessels to carry Ireighl for much less than now, mid go' it lo market iu guod condition and a reasonable lime.

There is business enough to make il profitable fur one boat, and wiili this facility Hie business of sail Vessels will increase, unless Ihe steamers reduce their price of freight very much nnd their mtiisnre mfiil still more.
