time consisted of four table spoonsful of (buggy)
beans, (called peas there), and four spoonsful of
meal, such as we use for horse feed, corn ground
up, hull,' cob and all. It was very seldom that
thny could get wood to cook their food, when wa
were furnished It was only one common quarter
(split) cord stick and this was divided between
twenty men, It was split up into twenty pieces
and then one turned bis back and decided whoso
should be each split. After the wood was stopped
altogether, the mon had to soak their beans till
soft in cold water from the brook, eating their
meal raw. This brought on dysentorv and scur
vy, of which in aoven months 18.050 died. At
one time they died faster than they could be bur
ied and carted out, and the soldiers (prisoners)
were permitted to carry out their dead comrades,
and in this way were able to get brush and wood
from outside, vicing with each other for the priv
ilege of carrying out doad man.
It hat been ascertained by careful e-ti mates
made byoflioari of the Union army, based upon
priion reports recovered- from the rebels, that
nut less than fifty ihuuiand Union loldiert
were ilarved to death in Southern friiont by
the meant above described. This diabolioal
plan of getting rid of our men, bat long been
known to tho public ' It wai published to the
world in every Union newspaper more than a
year ago. It wai to well established, that Sec
retary Seward earned photographs to be taken
of tome of our unfortunate men, recovered
front .the rebels, and who were mere living
tkeletonr.ond tent these photographs to all for
eign powen to show them what kind of an enemy
we bad tddcal witb. Now fur the application
of the "iron."
Having shown the infamons, tavago and
brutal charaoter of these outrages, not only
against the unfortunate victims, but equally in
against humanity and civilization, and their
unparalleled extent, aud (he notoriety whioh
they had secured long ago, we now direct the
attention of the public, to the position which
the late doiuocratio party maintained towards
these enormitiei, and especially to the position
which the so-called democratic papers in Ore
gon have persistency maintained towards the
tame luhjeot.
When a horrible crime it committed in any
neighborhood, it is universally denounced, and
all are upon tho watch lu discover and bring to
justice the perpetrator; and if any in tho com
munity treati the matter with indiflererice, hit
conduct it reprehended, anil himself toon
tnadn tho subject of ajutt tuspicion, that ho it
in lomo way or other connected with the per
petration of the crime, or tho escape of the
criminals. In fact, the rule of common sense
and justice, as well as of lutr, ii, that bo that
observe! the perpetration of a crime, or the
attempted or continued porpetratiou of one.nnd
fails to interfere to the extent of bit ability to
prevent the same, or failt to rnite the "huo
and cry," to that tha perpetrators may bo ar
retted, it Juttly chargeable with criminal mo
tive! iu the matter, and in mine cases, made
even a participant in tho legal guilt of the
priuoipal offender. Now take the facts recited
above, apply them to the democratic party and
those democratic editors, and then apply the
above rule to their case, and where Joei it
plaoa them t They cannot say they never
benrd of these crimes ngaiust our prisoners,
aud the ralci of civilized warfare. They knew
them as the publio knew tbem, but they oon
detuned them not. They knew that Iheir duty
at journalist! in a Christian and civilized com
monity, and their duty to their fellow man
required, that they, in common with all other
men, not blinded and poisoned by party ipirit,
should denounce these crimes nil outrages. -They
knew their duty, but they did it nut.
Are they then not Justly chargeable with crim
inal mntlvei in the matter I Are they not
ohnrgeable witb detiring to conceal from the
pnblic and their readers, whose opinion they
lock to form, tha guilt of the chief offenders,
the damnablo infamy of Winder, Oald, Davis..
Lee, and in faot the entire rebel Congress, be
came the febel Senator Foote ventilated this
whole ttarvation business in the rebel Congress
ai long ago at last Deoenibcr. llave tliey
not raised a "hue and cry" about other mat
ters, about negro suffrage, &c, iu order that
in tho confusion, the guilt of th$e murderert
of our nldicrt might eicape the attention of the
public T Where ii the democratic editor who
has ever taid on single word iu condemnation
of these atrooioui crimes, tho more mention of
whioh make! the blood curdle T Where is bo?
lie ii not lo be found. The Good Hook de
clare! that he that it nnt for ut, it against us ;
end we have no higher or better authority than
that. We "brand" them then with cutertnin
lug a eriminnl sympathy with the men who
starved our loldien at Libby Frison and An
dersonville, and burned them aud buried them
alive at Fort Pillow. This charge we shall
repeat and continue until these democratic ej
iton thow soui signs of repentance and oon
trililiou for their unexplained tiletioe in this
matter. We don't want to believe iuoIi things
of them, and would hail with pleasure any
reasonable explauation. Hut the truth must
be stated. No partiian success will pay any
man for tolling himself, his opportunities and
bis Inftuouoe, to a faction which padlocki hit
mouth to tho utterance of sympathy and aid to
a fellow being itarving to death, or the denun
ciation of crime, no matter where oninmitted.
Think for a moment of the doting mothers, ami
the affectionate wire! and listers, of these
buried ikeletoni at Andersontillo and Hello
Itl, who are even now wailing at the old
hornet for lb return of these brave nieu.
Alas!
Nor wife, nor children, more slull they behold
Nor friends, aor sacred home.
Tho very itonv might he expected tn cry
out ! How bat it cuius lo past llml th lead
en of the democratic party should make inch
a niistnke. Inking a more party view, as to fail
to enroll themselves upon the side of humani
ty and juslioo. If Vallaudigham, standing at
the head or 330.0(10 "Sons of Liberty," bad
uttered inoh a aeuunoiation of tho outrage!
oomiuittrd by the rebels, as hii masterly iuU'l
led would have enabled hitn to do, it would
have put an end to thsiu ; and If every demo
crats editor In lh country had united lik
tru men, lo dcuouuoe th rebels tor these
barbarities, Ihey would not ouly bar hasteued
th end of the war, and consequently an eud
of id horron, bat Ihey would bar been tn a
positiou 16 command the respect of their
countrymen, and to ask the publio for an im
partial hearing for their political doctrines.
Hut they refused to do this) aud Ihry bat
thut virtually plaoed themselves on th tide of
Winder, Ould and Jeff Davis j and Ihry must
now suffer pari of the odium and disgrace
which Ii Ibe luberkinoe of thes pre-eminent
criminal. They cannot be listened lo with
toleration until they make amende fur the past.
No one will listen lo lh libertiu who attempts
to preach obaility. In oonclusion, we appeal
to thes democratic editor, for th sake of
eonrnoa dectoey and ordinary rcsptot to thus
whs Bourn th lost of those who boaei rests
at lh Boalhera daughter pent, to pat them
elves right before th publio. II Ihey Uo not,

A Waii witii Foiieiun Nations). From
the tenor of our foreign newi, it would leem
that a war with England and France it not al
together improbable. Every ipread-englc ora
tor in the country hui been prophesying a war
with Franco as loon at the Southern rebellion
was put down, if Maximilian did not leave
Mexico. Franoe, too, it doubtlcn fully im
prencd witli ti e same faot, or her itntetmen
would not have offered to outer into a treaty
defensive and offensive against the United
States, as they did upon hearing of the surren
der of Lee. England declined the proposition
then ; but would Johnny Hull decline it now,
linoo President Jobnsrn hat demanded indem
nity for the American commerce destroyed by
the Alabama and other Confederate cruisers
fitted out, under protest, in British ports.
President Johnson it fully determined to per
sist iu tbil demand, and the American people
will sustain him in tho enforcement of it. Ac
cording to the latest news, England bat de
clined to pay this little bill of many millions
and the issue has already arisen. Significant
ol coming events, Grant hat ordered General
Steele, of Arkansas fame, with an army of
thirty thousand men, to go tn the Rio Grando,
at an " army of observation" to observe the
French in Mexico, and take them in, of oourie,
if Napoleon unites witb England to resist our
just oluim.
President Johnson would doubtless enforce
the claim by seizing the Cunadas, nnd then
would oomo tho " tug ol war." Such a war
will be popular witb both the North 'and the
South, and tend grent'y tn hasten reconciliation
between the two sections. The Northern and
Southern soldiers would readily fraternize on
battto-fielil, and via with each other in the ao
coinplishment of valorous deeds against a com'
mon enemy. Our Navy would hail such a war
with a Federal taluto, ns it would givo our ga!
In ii t marines a chance to sweep Johnny Bull

It is uiiivorsully believed that your renmrkt

the wool growera failed, ns every body knew
that it would. Parrish, Puvuu, Watt aud

Good Advu'B to Um"n Mkn. We lake
tho following sensible advice and sou nil duo
trino from a late letter of Senator Couuest to
bit friends iu California. Whether Counesi
practices the truth which he so ably preaches
wo aro not able lo any ; but ono thing may he
depended on, and that is, the people will most
assuredly enforce tbil doctrino ngaiust nny

Senator i
Occasionally I hear of thirsts to divide the Union

Thrlcurreiicy afforded by those Hnnki at the
East, it icoured by the deposit of U. S. Bonds,
and it thut secured beyond tho possibility ol
loss, if tho government ol tho United States is
maintained. The papenof California are advo
cating the establishment of lueh Bnnki in that
State. Tho Commercial llcporter of the Flag
tuyt :
We need several Nalional Uaiks oa this cost, thut
the National Currency may not be so much at the mer
cy of the enemies of the government, who have done it
so much Injury by repudiating this currency. Of course
all the bunkers, usurers and I mpollsts will oppose
the establishment of these bi ks In this State with all
Hit power at their disposal, but Ihey will fail. Colorado
alrcudy boasts of having these Hanks within her bor
ders, and we seo by the greot activity In ll branches
of business there, whal an advantage these banks, Willi
their cheap money, have been. Colorado today lias
more mills in actlvo operation than California, Oregon
nnd Nevada combined- This tells the tale, whether pa
per or metal is the best currency for general business
and labor.
We hope the day ii not far diitant when we
will have a National Bank in Salem. The cb
tablithment of tuch an institution ut this ccn
trul point in the best valley on tho coast, would
be the opening of a new era of prosperity to
all onr citizens. Such a Bank can be made
profitable to ttockholdorii, no matter whether
gold or greenbacks It tho ttaudard. We hope
our monied men will thitik of it.
"The Last op tiiu Mohicans, "Wo beg
pardon of the "ilwash" fraternity for the lib-
erty tnken in drawing a parallel between the
monrnful demise of their illustrious country
men of the "Mohican" family, and tho repre
sentatives of the lata democratic party, Bat
tho fact is, the democratic party has
fought itt lust battle, suffered ttt last defeat,
and inglnriously tumbled over the preoipice of
destruction into the abyss of oblivion. The
Mohicans aro all dead, nnd io are tho demo
cratic politicians they aro not iu mourning
they nre dead dead at the Tories of the Rev
olution. Tha editor of the Arena uttorcd an
incontrovertible truth when he declared
that the " military success of Lincoln "
wns the success of the Union party, and the
destruction of every other party. Thit truth
cannot be too constantly kept before the people
of Oregon. We should not permit the democ
racy nny hope of a political resurrection, by
permitting immigrant seoesu to believe that
there it even a defeated dsir.ocracy in Oregon
which might bo n nucleus to rally around ut
the licit election.
The force and truthfulness of the foregoing
declaration of the Arena it fully illustrated by
tho luto election in Wnshinelon Territory.
Two yean ugo the democracy elected Cole to
Congress. They fully believed they still held
their old party strength, in addition to n prob
able bfttiilsomo increase frnm immigration.
But the "military suocess ofLincoln" icatter
ed their bosli and reinforced the ranks of tha
Union party: and nt the reomt election the
Union party achieved a glorious triumph. Mr.
Denny, the Union candidate, und one of the
bust men lu the oountry, will represent Wash
ington Territory in Congress. Idaho will be
redeemed next, and that will wipo out the last
vestige of coppcrhcadisin west of tho Hooky
mountains. The Olympin Standard refers to
tho Washington Territory election ns follows:
Tn the election of members of tho Legislature, the
Union ticket haa likewise carried everything before it.
From a hasty summing up of tlio returns received, und
counting in those counties known to be certain for the
Union ticket, we lind the Legislature will staud about

little Jowa of Harrietts,! place noted for nothing in
particular save the virulent type of roppcrhcadnun pre
vailing there. The reeeptiou of the dreadful news
from Wa.-hiiigluu set the honest democrat thcrealsmln
crazy with joy. In the alwncc of a c.iuuon'thcy load
ed ami tired an anvil repeatedly, shouted, danced, sang
and in every posiiiic manner gave expression to their
ilemoinae joy ; alter which they constructed in elltgy
f i'rcsidcul Lincoln, with a rude representation of the
bullet hole in hi head, which tliev carried ahout the
streets, a big niftian following and ringing a bell. The
etligy was altel wards burnt.
A Kkmakkam.e Admission. A meeting of
leading "democrats" wns held at New York on
the 20th of April, in commemoration of the
birth-day of Thomni Jefferson. Theodore
Marluiiie, the person who presided, laid :
A nialorllv ol the democrats of the North i.mrd
faNe to their priuciplea, and false to rtrir tmlkrtn ;
trhom see sort aitrinvd una encouraged into extreme
trtion. Never liefore in the history ol political parties
was such treachery know n.
Tho poiut to that, ia this : That a majority
of the democrats of the North had enconrnged
extreme action, to wit, rebellion on the part nf
Southern "brethren" ; aud that then the North
em democrat! had been false to Mcir princi
ples, to nit, the resolutions of 171)399, in de
serting their Southern brethren who attempt
ed lo practice "their principlct." W olwayi
knew that to be Ihe irulh in the mailer, but
never expected lu find a democrat candid
enough to admit it.
The statement that the Wo len Mantifaetorinir Com

a a needless falsehood Arena

i,.r tbo.n iii svmnnthv with Fulkorson, be
cause of his arrest upon the charge of rejoic
ing over the assassination of the late President
Lincoln, came lo order at the court house, and
elected Ira F. M. Butler chairman of the
meeting. "Ira" passes! for a copperhead
"over iu Polk," though ho is one without fungi.
Joseph Smith spoke first. Ho said s "Mnrtial
law ii mob law. Military law is regulated by
tha bins of war it established under the Con-
ititution, and in nccordnnce with the provisiout
of thut instrument. Ho oouncilcd submission
to law, but to such arbitrary arrcstt under pro
test." Said he did not sympathize with such
pi rejoiced over nssnssinatioty but witb the law
"which bad been trampled upon," And to
they have been remarkably tcusitive whenever
the rebels were auoui 10 ui trnmpieu upon ;
and even when our ballot boxei were being
stuffed kf demooratio imported voteri, their
nice legul tensibilitiei were shocked dreadfully;
and they held indignation meeting tn a horn !
Then, "guardian ungels, tteer us on." Noth
ing was said of nbolitionists.not a word; and no
other act as illegal but tins i uworeon arrost,
was mentioned. To make a still greater won
der, when Mr. Smith laid he respected good,
honest republicnm. An old strii-wnrn cav
nlry Captnin cried out : "You don't find many
of lliem, do you ?" Mr. S. said : 'll find many
honest republicans a large majority of them
nre good men." About thit time the true ob
icct of Ihe meeting, at some think, became vis
ible. Mr. S. said the arrest of Fulkerson win
mado by Lnfollette, and that when the factt
were kuown, Secretary amnion wnuiu un
charged tho prisoner, and dismiss Lnfollette
Irom the service ; aim 01 tins lie nau nn uoiini.
"The Captain would then return, looking like
a rooster just dipped iu a frog pouil." Mr. S.
then hui perfect confidence in Ibe administra
tion, because it has never countenanced illegal
proceedings; and, therefore, it is logical to
conclude, ai Mr. S. does, thut it will not coun
tenance this a. rest if it be illegal. Mr. S. ii
a candid man, und in this we should admire
his judgment no lest than hii candor. Ai F.
then is safe at tho disposal of Mr. Stanton,
what other object could this meeting have in
view than to prepare a political grave for the
remains of the unfortunate Lufollette, who ni
soon as Mr. Stanton waket up "off oomes his
head off" ? Tho idea of Lafollctto being time
bumbled, mado tho copper brighten consider
ably, though the next fearful thought that he
miiv return like a came cock, without th" dip,
ami "pitch into their wool agaiu," toon made
the copper corrode almost to blackness. The
old Captain aforesaid called Ben for short
being culled, first by ono voice, and after bo
appeared, by two, yieldeded to the popular
clamor and tpolte very aisrcspcctluliy 01 L,a
follette. Other democrats were called, but did
not respond to the invitations, whereupon the
meeting adjourned. Directly nfter adjourn
ment, a man, noted for bis inordinate appetite
fur mutton aud wool, became quite noisy, and
iu all probability made a few remarks. I think
the greatest disappointment connected with the
matter, wai aiiuered by the lager Deer men
from Salem ; fur the bone and smew of the as
sembly adjourned to "Cariboo" to receive the

Tub Poisonisoof Andrew Johnson.
From Wilkes' Spirit of April 29th, wo take
the following:
There can be but little doubt left in the
mitids of those who have attentively perused
the details of tbo plot to assassinate the lead
ers of the Government, that Andrew Johnson,
who has endured to much undeserved obhmiiv
for bit singular aberration on tbu4th of March,
win on that occasion under the influence, not
of spirituous liquors, nnt either of a more dis
turbine drug, intended only lo disfigure him.
but of a deadly poison, furtively insinuated in
hii drink with" the view tn take hii life. It is
iu proof that the assassinations were tn have
been perpetrated on the 4th of March, and
that Booth, tho chief assassin, had posted him
self in a position whero Lincoln must pass
closely by, and it was doubtless expected that
about tho time when ihu President should have
perished by the pistol, the new Vice President
would hnvo expired in the Capitol Irum the ef
fect! of the potion he bad luken. Probably
this view nf the matter hoi never (truck the
mind of Johnson, and it is not to be supposed
that under the mystery of that ttrunge occur
rence, which must have puzzled hirp more than
anybody else, he would euro to allude to lite
affair with any attempts at explanation lhat
might have been misunderstood. The disclo
sure of Ihe instructioni distributed among the
assassins, that "they were nt liberty to use tho
blade, Ibe pistol, or the bowl, hut they must
uenr in mum 1110 latter nail once tailed," le-ms
tn be conclusive upon this point, and will
doubtless suggest some important recollections
