HORA.NCE. For a long time ire American have attempt
ed to run our public and social machine upon a
theory that a person may bo qualified to tench
and govern others without knowing much of
any thing himself. Of Into years there is a
perceptible and hopeful movement in another
and better direction. Candidates for appoint
' ment in the military department are now re
quired to pasa an examination for the purpose
of ascertaining their fitnesi for the place they
aspire to. There ia now serious titlk in Con
gress of applying the eume rule in the civil ser
vice. Let it be done then, the quicker the bet
ter. We examine school master before com
mitting to them our "young ones " to learn the
ABC, and other mysteries of what we call
education. But the popular teacher of this
age ii the editor. Iu the United States few
people comparatively speaking know any thing
but what they learn Iroin the newspaper.
Even when they do not directly control our
opinion! by the force of their reasoning and
argument, they do the same thing indirectly by
giving color and bias to the information from
which we draw our conclusion) uf men and
tbinge. Ignorance or dishonesty in the charge
of a newspaper is os pernicious in its effects
upon a people as tho same qualities would be
in a teacher of u public school. Wo ought to
have some means of selecting qualified editor!
as well aa schoolmasters. It would be a great
benefit to the publio morals and education of
the pcoplo if the men who furnish them their
daily mental food und instruction were qualified
by. nature and education for the responsible po
sition. If some one would suggest a practical
process by which this end can be obtained, he
will confer a great boon upon the country.
With the domain of opinion, either in poli-'
tice or religion we would not iuterlere, but com
mon honesty and intelligence should be re
quired of every candidate for editorial position
at least the door should lie permanently
closed upon downright ignorance aud rascality.
For Instance, not long since wo read an edi
torial paragraph in an Oregon paper upon the
pardon of Ned Tichenor, convicted lost sum
mer in the United States Court, in this State,
of cutting timber on the public lands. The
paragraph, after misstating the sentence, by
laying tho defendant was imprisoned for a year
when he was iu fact only imprisoned for a day,
ayi the sentence of the court was a harsh one,
and suggests that on this account the President
pardoned him. The sentence so far. from be
ing harsh, was tho very mildest the law would
allow a fine equal to three times the value of
the lumber, aa found by the jury who tried the
Issue, aud ono day's nominal imprisonment.
The court under the law might have sentenced
Tichenor to pay a fine of any greater amount
and to imprisonment for one year. To charac
terize such a fentence aa harsh betrays grosa
1 .. .1 . . : .1 I ....!!
ignurunce ur iicsire iu niieicuu tue puouo.
As for Mr. Lincoln thinking the sentence a
harsh one, that is simply ridiculous. We ul
wayi supposed that the chances wero that
Tichenor would be pardoned not because be
ought to be, but because be was a California!!
who oould command the aid of a certain Cali
fornia political influence because he had
money and would spend it. And last but not
least, because he,' a Californinn, was convicted
in Oregon of stealing timber from the public
lands of Oregon.
Mr. H. H. Lose, a hard-working Oregnnian,
and mill owner of Conso Bay, was oonviated
of the same offence for a small amount of tim
ber out with bis own hands. He paid his fine,
about $1)00, as we remember, and wo have
never heard any whining or grumbling over
his cue. But here is a rich California specu
lator who has hired timber cut to the vulno of
$20,000 in gold a year from the public lands in
Oregon, for over ten year, mid when at last he
is convicted and lined by on Oregon jury and
fined 118.000 iu greenbacks by an Oregon
court, California politicians ami Judges beseech
the President for a pardon, und upon one-sided
representations obtained it. The pnrdon was
mere political job, as every body knows that
knows any thing about it. He had a strong
political influence, in California to aid him in
obtaining it; among other reasons, beoause he
was the representative aud member of a Cali
fornia company, organized expressly to steal
timber from the publio lands of Oreg n for the
benefit of the Calilornia market. The people
of Oregon have never relished the idea of Cal
ifornia interfering with Iter affairs. We have
lived as independent nf them, and as little In
fluenced by them aa if they were our antipodes
instead of our neighbors. This Tichenor par
don ia a California Job, and we think not a very
repotaiile one. In tins light only we care to
speak nf it and protest against it. When we
Oregoniatte want any of our U. 8. oi iuiiuals
pardoned we oau speak for ourselves at least
we think it nothing but right that we should be
Consulted in the premises.
but we Have let onr illustration carry us
way from our original topic. The community
need Iu be aroused on this subject of the edi
torial profession. A newspaper, if true to its
mission, is something more than a mere me
chanical Job or a business speculation to pan
der and puff or libel and blaok-u ail for a liv
ing. It is nothing uncommon to see thousands
of dollars expended annually upon the median
leal labor and dress of a newspaper that does
not employ ability enough in its editorial de
partment to get up a common valentine or toy
book. We ought to elevato the staudard of
tbt editorial profession. It ought to he the
most able, cultivated, honest and independent
in tho oommonity. We ought to pay more for
the matter and less for the setting. More for
brains anJ Integrity and less for type anil tele
grams. So lu.v has the profession gone under
the present system that it is a common saying,
" nobody believes tho newspapers." In one
sense ibis is true, and another not. " Constant
dropping wears a sumo "and fur a people
who read nothing but nowspnprrs, at least with
rt'r re nc to current events, there, if no avoid
ing being loflaeiiced by them, and believing
them snoro or less. As we said at the notsot,
UuUiiij r) !:w'T inUllereneo ought at least
to ba required of a person who aspires to the-
tditeriul profession, and the doors ought to be I
closed upon igiiorauce and rascality or either I
of them. Good people of nil kinds and con
ditions take papers aud read them day after
dny and week after week, who would think
their time wasted, or their moral standing af
fected by spending au hour in the society of the
men that edit them. This is wrong. The ed
itor is the lay preacher uf this day, ami he
should he among the first of the community in
which ho lives, and be every way wortny of it.
We ask the publio to pander upon these things.
The evil is a serious one, nod the remedy is
mBHily with themselves. If they prefer to
patronize ignorance, Iriirh, stupidity aud ma
levolence in their daily reading, they are not
likely to get any thing else. These at least are
cheap and plenty.
IXTEUXAL IMKKOVKMKMS-tOMMOX
ROADS, At.
As a highly commendable spirit is now being
manifested in different parts of the State, to
the importance of some means of cheapening
the transporta'ion of the products of the farm
and the necessaries of life, we propose in this
and some succeeding numbers nf the Slates-
man to impress the importance and necessity
of such publio improvements as will not only
help the whole State, but immensely help the
particular locality most interested. In what
we sny we intend to lie understood as not ad
vocating an exolusivo "Salem view" of the
matter ; or in other words, we do not desire to
advocate any policy that would benefit Salem
to the injury of other towns, (if that was pos
sible,) but such policy of publio improvement
as will benefit each and all alike. -
The means of transportation, such us good
common roads, railroads, canals, steamboats,
6V'c, are sure and correct evidences, or even
tests of the progress and degree of the pros
perity, intelligence and refinement of any
country or community. The designation and
opening nf a publio highway on which all may
travel or transport their properly, is one of the
very first indications of the emergence of any
people or community from a savage or barbar
ous state to ono of civilization ; and thereafter
the progress and prosperity of thu country is
marked by the progress and efficiency of its
menus of transportation und intercommunica
tion. It may bo said that roads and highways
are the veins and arteries of ail organized
community uf the present time, fur through
them flow the agricultural produce and the
merchandise which is the life blood of the com
munity. Upon their efficiency, number and
proper location, depend the case and rapidity
with w hich the remote parts of the system re
ceive and disburse the trade, which is so tie
oessary, not only to the prosperity of tho com
munity, hut to the comfort and huppimes of its
people.
It was a favorite remark of Dr. Johnson,
that life had no grenter pleasure than being
whirled mer it good road in n post chaise ; hut
had the renowned Author of "Kusselas" lived
to ride over any ten miles of Oregon " stage
road" in a Concord wagon, ho would doubtless
have changed his mind about the great pleas
ures of this life. Hut more important than
personal comfort, ia the consideration that, in
the absence of good roads or such means, ma'-y
of the richest of earth's productions are wnsted
on tho spot of their growth. Corn has been
used on the Illinois prairie for fuel, instead of
wood nrooal, beoause there was not then the
railroad to carry the corn to market or the
coal to the farmer. Iu Spain (where there are
scarcely any roads yet), wheat has been fre
quently allowed to rot, because it would not
repay cost of transportation on pack mules.
In the same country, and for similar reasons,
sheep are killed for their fleece only, and the
flesh is abandoned ; ns is likewise the case
with cattle in Brazil, slaughtered merely for
their hides. And how many of the rich mines
in Oregon are now valueless, because tho cost
ol transportation to and from them is so great!
In Great Britain, where the subject of the
improvement of rond is being subjected to the
closest engineering arithmetic, a committee re
porting to the House of Commons says : " lly
the improvement of our roads, every branch of
ouragriculturnl. commercial and manufacturing
industry. wool 1 be greatly benefitted. Evorj nr
tide brought to market would be diminished in
price (to the consumer und increased in price to
tho producer) ; and the number ol horses
. would be so much reduced, that by these mid
other retrenchments, the expenses of twenty
five million dollar would be annunlly saved
to the public. Tho expense of rcpairing'rouds,
und tho wear and tear nf carriages and horses,
would be essentially diminished ; and thou
and of aores, tho produce of which is now
wnsted iu feeding uuiieossary horses, would he
devoted to the production of food for man.
With how much greater force does that ap
ply to the roads here in this valley T Our
roads through the valley are, in the winter
time, almost impassable they are an as to
loaded teams, so that produce cannot he mark
eted at the very lime that it will bring (lie most
money. As matters stand now, the country is
compelled to stop and stand still (oxevpt ns to
what can be shored into tho steamboats from
the Immediate vicinity of the river), for about
one-third of the year. This state nl things
must be remedied before wo can have vigorous
prosperity. We must not mil have improved
roads, but we must get rid of the monopolies.
Our suil aud climate is generous and fruitful,
none more so. The runner is ulwnys reward
ed with abundant harvests, when he farms
properly bu'. between the miry roads which
prevent him from reaching the market nt the
best time, aud tho exorbitant charges for river
transportation, after he has struggled with a
jaded team and half load for a half dotcu
miles through a modern "slough of Despond,"
it is uo wonder that our farmers are frequently
discouraged, and catch at any ignis faluus
milling excitement, throw dowu the
plough aud awayuff'lo the North Pole, only
to be disappointed and return lo the mud aud
monopolies again.
We' want permanent residents and mure far
mers and to have aud keep tbeiu, there must
be great Inducements, and the "greatest of
these," are good roads. Every town that ex
lends good Mads out from its streets in proper
directions, is like a giant III at extends his arms
aud draws iu all within his jreach. While we
have been running wild after our quarts leads,
steamboats, dec, we have neglected the very
first element and Instrument of wealth in any
community, and that is good common roads.
And these loo are ibe easiest made and will be
of tho greatest benefit In the people such
road, as tho farmer cap always travel with thu
samo team that plow his land and hauls his
wood. What good would a doien steamboats,
and as many rival companies do, or a railroad
, on tMb side of the river, if by reason of the
rkii ot mad he could lint take hi produce to
at thu best season for sale. doorl turn
pike or plank roads, leading lo all tho centers
of trade, would not compete with either steam
boats or railroads, but would be the greatest
ds to both. And the town in this valley that
first wU ly und vigorously sets to w rk to bring
trade to its midst by such means; will reap the
greatest profits.
We intended to have said something about
the Fulls Canal this week, ns wo deem that
enterprise of local importance to the whole
valley, and so badly needed as to demand aid
from every farmer and merchant for its inline
diaU construction, hut must defer it until next
Week.
A MISSTATEMENT CORRECTED.
The last Arena contains a long reply to our
article upon opposition reports uf decisions,
"important about greenbacks," which had no
thing to do with them. The Arena was evi
dently wounded by our expose, and has taken
some weeks to cook up this reply, A more
precious piece of pettifogging and whipping
the devil round the stump was never scratched
together. In our former article we sufficiently
exposed the disingenunusiiessof the little joker,
and wo cannot afford to waste any nioro can
dle on such small game. But we will give one
specimen of the Arena's reply, and add 8 few
words, just to show the thing up :
The right of Congress, arbitrarily, to Impair Hie
obligations t contract Is ulUi'ined. It' Congress may
legalize me robbery uiiiiiiikc iroin the creditor tutu
liis debt, It limy permit It all to bo taken. II it may
tbus destroy hi property, it may destroy his persoiuil
rights. It' all this be true, then we have uii uusolute
despotic power iu the government.
The first sentence of the quotation in rein-
tion to tho right of Congiess, icu., is intend
ed to convey the Impression that the Statesman
so asserted. Murk how plain a tale shall put
him down. The Indiana court, which the
Aiena quoted with approbation, was alleged tu
have decided the Legal Tender Act invalid
because it "impaired tho obligation of con
tracts." If this assertion of the Iloasier court
were true, which we did not admit, we argued
that no such conclusion would follow. In this
connection, we wrote :
The States only aro prohibited from passing laws
Impairing tho obligation of contracts, not the United
Stales, I'roviding the end sought to be accomplished,
to iniiiie money, be wHlna the power ot I. ongru, it.-
etl'ect upon contracts ja immaterial, except, tit a mnVer
of public policy. I lie court seems to nave got bailly
alray upon thu ground of its dt-eisioii. .
The difference between the "right to impair
the obligation of contracts arbitrarily," and
tho power to do something else, that power be
ing granted, which might incidentally affect
the obligation of contracts, it just the differ
ence between the Statesman's position and the
Arena's version of it. As a mutter of public
policy, not of ' right," we then suggested that
it might bu a question, hut for Congress to de
termine, whether in a particular case it' won Id
exercise a clearly constitutional power, where
the incidental effect would be lo iuq air the
obligation nf contracts. As. for instance, to
declare ten dollars in gold coiil a legal lender
for 810,000. The power is clear. Tho Con
slitution declares iu so many words, that Con
gress shall hare power "to regulate the value"
of coin. But thu policy of making such a
sudden change iu the value nf money, would
bu very questionable, nnd could only lie justi
fied by tho sternest necessity. But this does
not affect the power. We asserted that there
wns no restraint upon Congress in the exercise
of it powers, requiring it to refrain from im
pairing the obligation of contracts, and the
Arena, if it knows anything about the Consti
tution it loves to prate about, knows that we
were correct. If there is, point It out, nnd not
attempt lo palter with its readers by saying :
"If all this be true, then we have an absolute
despotic power in the government." This des
potic puwer is one that we have lived under
ever since tile Constitution of thu United States
was adopted, and which existed in every State
and was freely received by them during the
old Confederation. The Constitution of tho
United Slates prohibited it to the States there
iifler.but not to Congress. It wus reserved for
Arena to discover that it was despotio and go
into melancholy over it. But w e are only talking
now about the power and tho unvcraoity of the
Arena. We do not advocate the policy t,f im
pairing tho obligation of contracts, by any
means. We do not admit that the legal ten
der act does So any more than many other
kinds of legislation which has always been
common in this country, and is unavoidable in
managing thu complex affairs of any civilized
society or government.

SHEBMAX'S MOVEMENTS.
The World's Hilton Head corii-spniident,
writing under date of the 8th, says : Reliable
information hns been received here that Slier-
man's nrniy is already marching on the Edistn
river that a portion or bis troops urn beyond
the Georgia ami South Carolina railroad, and
have erected deleiises preparatory io a itmire
march.
The enemy disappeared rapidly before the
advancing nf nur troops. They have maiii
Tested a purpose to evacuate neaily all llieir
i-trongholds, and retire lurther Minn.
This purpose has been the result of Sher
man's tactics: that they will be slowly but
surelr followed nn. admits nn question. Our
troops are known to extend over a dUtauce of
forty miles, and lor several nays past nave
been occupied in destroying nil the railroad
connecting with the Uull anil .-Northern Mines.
The object seem lo Ik- to isnlnte itrunuh
villi.. Augusta and Charleston, from nil p si
tile aid or reinforcements, iu order to onplure
the garrison of each city. Some of onr troops
nre north nf Charlestons which is out off from
reinforcements. A corps is moving simulta
neously on the line nf Edistn.
The towns pawed throueh have been desert
ed by a number of their inhabitants, who
forced all able bodied negroes to leave Willi
them, iu order that they may not aid onr army.
Nkw York, Feb. 13. The Tribune's spe
cial dispatch says : It is generally credited to
night, iu ollicial circles, thai Brauchville, S.
C, is in Sherman's possession, and that
Charleston is being evacuated. It it eipeo ed
that Richmond nnd Wilmiiixtou will he evacu
ated also that Ihe rebel will make a despe
rate iiltempt to conceiitiiitu their entire force,
and endeavor In crush Sherman while he is in
the interior. There is no doubt that stote.
etc.. have been removed South from Richmond
lately, and this indicates its nbandi nineiit at
no distant dny. '
The Richmond pnpers confirm the statement
of the evueuution of Charleston as a military
necessity.
Piiii.adrlpiiia, Feb. 14 The Bulletin has
Ihe following Irom Washington: Richmond
pnpers of Feb. X'i announce the lapping of
the railroad by Miermnn north ol Uriiuuuville,
and between Riugsville and Brauchville Ihns

The Richmond ll'Aigof the 13 has Ihe fol

Ciiaiii.f.ston. Feb. If!. A force nf the ene

James Island, this morunig and drove in nur
pickets. Some skirmishing took pines but no
general engagement. Turuhull's is at Ihe
mouth of Stouo river, two miles southwest of
Charleston, Ashley river, 2,000 yards interven
ing. The enemy are making a series of
demonstrations at various points. A force at
lacked our troops at Salkthatchie this morning
but were repulsed. The enemy also adranced
nil the Charleston road, near ihe mile horse,
and opened with artillery, but made no impres
sion on our lines. Intelligence Iroin the road
to-day, reports that the enemy crossed Ihe
Eilislu at llaruwer's bridge. Thu enemy are
now moving on Edis'o. It will be remember
ed lht on Feb. 4th, Sherman crossed Ihe Sal
kshalohie, between Blackstone and Rivers
hiidge, thereby completely outflanking our
forces and compelling them to Is II back lo
Urauchvillc. We have since lenrnrd that the

says: A special messenger with dispatches,
who left Sherman's army Ion miles from
Brnnchville, had arrived when lie left. Slier
man was easily overcoming all obstacles iu Ins
way.
The Herald's special says : The Richmond
pnpers of the 15th nuiioiincc thut telegraphic
commiinicatjon with. Charleston was broken,
and that Sherman's cavalry was probably up
eraliitg on tho railroad from Charleston via
Raleigh and Wilmington, thus cutting the Inst
line of couiinuuicntion between Virginia and
the South.
His troops are also believed to be in Ihe vi
cinity nf Florence, an important point for the
conveyance of communication between South
Carolina, Georgia nnd Virgiitin, thereby the
papers admit there Is nothing to stop Sherinnn's
army, and expects that thu National flag will
soon be floating over Charleston, Augusta, Co
luuibiii and Ra!eigh.
'Richmond journals of Wednesday lust sny
that the War Department had an official tin
uoiiuucinent of the evncutioii of Bruuohville,
which was consequent upon the occupation of
Orangeburg, north of it on the railroad leading
to Columbia, by a largo force of Sherman's in
fantry, hut don't mention any fighting iu the
vicinity. On Tuesday last, they state there
was a Union column within a few miles of
Augusta; and more important still, they state
that on Wednesday Sherman's nilvuiice readi
ed the south bank of the Congiircc, within five
miles of Columbia, which is titiiuted on the
north hunk of that river, to which side the
rebels had fallen back, - A buttle was consid
