Oor Doraoorolio euteniporariva hav gener
ally lettled down lo Ihe eonoliuion, nnt how
ever without manifeit rvluctanoo, that they
mud defend that (by them) nndcflned doottine
called 'Stntet Itighta." Thii wai the old bob -by,
which, appealing to Btnto pride, got op the
little florry at Charleiton In 1832. nnd which
wai to handaomely iqsclched by that noble old
Raman, General Jnckion. And tlm alio wai
the eerpent'a tgR, which being aorreplitiooily
pawned npon the body pnlilic, during the reign
of J. C Calhonn in the Democratic party, wai
induitriouily incubated by the pro-ilawy
leaden of the tame party nnlil it hatch
ed ont tho terribto rebellion of the South. It
cannot he denied, hot that it war the doctrine
of "Statci righti," u taught and explained by
tho Detnocrnoy, which formed the pint form on
which the Sonthern roboli and traitori rallied,
and attempted to Jnitify and legalize llio bloody
revolution which they precipitated npon the
Southern Statei. Slavery wai tho pretext
which wai manipulated to unite the mniiea of
the South, and Bre Ihcin on to rebellion ; but
imperiled "Statei righti"! wai alleged ai the
legal pwitton on which the rebel leaden found
ed their right nf iroeinlnn. Giving the rebol
leaden all ibe lupport tvhioh they eoulil by any
poifihi liy bava inanufaolured out of tha Abo
lition ghiwt (aa it eiiited befnra the war), and
they would have miierulily failed to induce the
Southern people tu take up urine egainit the
old flag, if they bud called their movement ft
rebellion. They wore ihrvwd enough to know
thii. and lienoe they fell back npon the Demo
cratic lophiiin, that tho Statei created the
General Government, and that they exuted
before the General Government, and that they
were Independent nf and mvcreign In it, mid
thai, therefore, Ihey had the right to lecede
Or, ai the reiolntion 'OS and W expren it.
"the Statu are the judge) of infi actioui of the
Cntiilitution, and tho mode nf red rein," and
that, therefore, If a State judged that the Con
titutiou had been violated end ita righti ai
niled, and that lu proper redreia wai to with
draw from and break up tho Union, It then had
the right to dn in, and tho General Govern
ment wai pimerleni tu coerce or bring it I nek
into the Union.
With lliii fulie renaming, backed np by
Demnorntlo plntfornii, the Southern leaden
quieted and latiifieJ tha loyal tnsiiei of
the South, u to their legal right to leoede and
have a Southern Confederacy Independent nf
United Statei. If thii remaning of the rebel
leaden, itipported ai it wai by the platform!
nf the Deujocralio party, i fnlie and danger
oui to the peace and perpetuity id Ihe country,
it ought to be diioarded by every man who do-
Irei that wa ihould lmvo no more bloody re
bellion!. We inert that it ii fUe, and that
the dnotrloe of "Stntci righti." ai tanght by
our Democrotlo eolemporariea in Oregon, ti
dangoroui to tbo peace and perpetuity of the
American Union that it Ii nothing more nor
leaa tlian tho right of eeoeiiion covered np in
"glittering gcneraliiiei."
' It make! no difference bow many National
Democratic Convention!, or how many Demo-
eratie itateimen bava endoned the reioluliom
of 1708 '09. Tbey aro itill nn error, and the
Sonthern rebellion Ii the proof nf it. The eon-
veniiou which nomiuated Mr. Linculu in 18till.
did not endorie tho Democratic doctrine uf
"State! tight!," li tba Jackinnvillo Reporter
would make Iti rcadera believe, nnd much leu
did it endure tha reiolutiimi of 1)8 and '00 ;
but that oouvenlion endoned the righti of the
State! ai exprewed in Uie Cnnititutinn of the
United Slalea, aud ai uuderitood by all Uui"0
men who have adhered to and initained the
Government in putting down the rebellion.
Nn man who oonicienlinuily believed in the
reaolutioui of '08 and '00 could oomcientiiiuilj
mitain or aid the Preiident in making war
npon the rebeU t and heooo it wni that the
Nurlhern Democracy which oppiwed the Union
parly, went betrayed Into opposition In the
Government itielf, and pluced uu the lidu of
the Southern rehela, limply beeauw Ihey ad
hered to the errum oui and treasonable dogmai
of thiwe reiulutioni, and the doctrine of "State!
righti" which thoao rveolutioni amume to do
claro.
Wa regret that Detnocralio editor will take
no warning from the paiU or learn anything
from that "inexorable lglo of eventi" wliieh
hai iwepl their theory of "Stale! right" into
Ibe ahyuof oblivion and Irnilora. We regret
that they ihould eway lo longer preach and
teaeb fnlie doctrine! to Ihe people, about our
political lyi'em. If there la anything which
thii war bai aettled aud diipiued of, never lo
be mentioned again, exoept ai an obnilete and
treasonable error. It ii that doctrino which

erniiient, funned and oreated by "We, the
people," the H hole peopleof the United Slntei.
Aro the Statei, then, tho olTVprlng of ihe
General Government, ni the Review would
claim that we amnno I Hy no meani. The
State Government! likewlie are the nffupritig
of "We, the people." Neither the people of
Uuited State., nor the people of any other
Statei, owe their right! or privilege! to any
government. They are from the Creator of
all. Our anoeitori choie to organize two gov-
vernmonti to protect and preierve their right.
To one general government they, hi a whole
people, anil not aa Statei, delegated certain
powen, in ordor to protect and promote the
general welfare of the great nation thai formed,
especially in tho regnlntion of offairi with for
eign nutiom. Theio powcri nre clenrly de
fined in the Comtitntlon. To another govern-
mont, called the State Government, the. people
of Ihe State have delegated the pnwen uecea
iary to manage and regulate it domeitio nf-
fain, and no reference ii made to foreign af
fairs, or matten which conoern tho inhabitant!
of the other States of tho Union.
Although the General Government wai
formed, and may be altered or amended, thro'
the medium of the Statu Governments, yet it
ii Ihe people after all that ratifiei or atnendi ;
and the formation, alteration, or umendment
goei back to the penple, who nre the louroe of
nil power and government in the United
Statei. ;
If wo admit the dogma, ai auerted by the
Review, that the General Government "ii the
being of the States and dependent on the
Statei," then wo admit the right of secession,
tho right of any Slute In withdraw from the
Union at pleasure, or refuse any longer to be
considered a part of the Union. If we admit
this, wu must admit that the war to put down
tho rebellion wai a mmnitroui wrong ; that
Abraham Lincoln wni a tyrant, and nil the
Union soldiers murdereii. Thii cannot be ad
mitted. J. .
TllR CaTIIDMO AGAINST PllOTKSTANT En-

of Ihe Catholic school at Portland, by Ihe edi
lor of tho Jacksonville Reporter, in his correi

of Catholic ttfitchiiar are ajmioiit this sort of thina-.
Hance il is that I'aibolio education and Catholic liter

ministers, jn our npnuun, i aiiiouciiy unu American

It is not proper to permit- such a thrust at
at all Protestant schools, and Proturtutit teach
en and ichnlnri, to pass unnoticed. Wo pre.
mine Ihut Calhulio education, like Proleitnnt
education, will produce iti best fruite where it
ii unembarrassed, and in those countries where
it is the education of tho Stale, nnd llio only
system tolerated. Judged by thii standard,
what are tho froili of Calhulio education in
Spain. Mexico, Chili, nnd Italy f The Span-
nil heart and affection is but another namu for
bliHiil lhirstiiiesi and treachery. Under a
Cut liuliu system of education, Spain produoed
the horrors of Ihe Inquisition; and although it
seut hardy uavigalori to tho New World it
lent them only for gold. Under Ihe Calhulio
system, Spain has retrograded from a first olasi
power tn tin insignificant fourth rate nation
and it duel not now possess a single railroad,
nor any other ligm nf an existence in the nine
teenth century. Mow about Mexico I Tlfl
Catholic! have always controlled both Ihe
ichooli and churoltei of the nation, with un

How about Chili ? Any belter than Mexico or

bauchery. Iluw about Italy? Alas! the
heavens above are pure only because uf their
distance from Italians. And these ore coun
tries where Ihe Calhulio system of education
has been patronised to the exclusion of ull oth
er systems. Calhulio literature haa been Ihe
only reading permitted in Ibose unhnppy coun

Tub "Ahkna" aoainht thk Sunday Law
and tub Mbtiiodist Church- Tho "great
politician" who presides over the destiny of
that Immense myth, known In the courts ai the
Arena, floundered through a couple of columns
of contusion last week, and filially exhausted
ami lost himself in the vastnesi nf his disquisi
tion on the Sniidny Law. Having oeeo
brought to a realizing lenio of the existence
of a Sunday Law in Oregon, by a punishment
for It! violation, he leeki the retreat of 111 edi
torial den, and there, with the courage and
quietude of a church mouse, bravely teat's to
see what tho Statesman will lay ; and having
icen that, he friski out cheerily and (Irei off
hit pop gun at the Methodist Church. Foolish
man, doei the Methodist Church care for you I
Tito Methodist Church and we aro sorry to so
speak of un ui-jnitiizHi.iuu ws were educated to respect

nmifiman, tnus still, contumely upon in. nrni i"f
it of our laws, and insults ths dixuity of our courts
and the iittelliueuce of ths people.
The above extract from the Arena is the
mm and substance of Its article ou the Sunday
Law. Uu thinlii be will make everybody mad
at llio Methodists, and that then the Union
party will fall out with Ihe Methodists, and
that everything (table and mutable will "bust
np," and thereby the Dcmocratio party will
carry the next electiin. He does not know
whether he is in furor of a Bnoduy Law or
against one, nnd dare not choose.
Sunday Laws exists in every State of Ihe
Union, aud nre necessary to maintain quiet on
that day of rest, and at a time when most peo
ple, desiro lo attend Church, undisturbed by
noise or coufusion. The Sunday Law wai not
Intended lo make Christians nf anybody, bat a
mere police regulation lo maintain quiet and
deccnoy, while religious people attend their
devotions. It is also proper that tho law should
recognize this snored institution for many rea
sons, which will euggest tliemselvei to every
reflecting mind. We think the present law
might be amended and improved, and it will
doubtless be dune.
To the uncalled for attack upon the Meth
odisls and their church, there is no need of
making a reply. An organization that has
started from nothing in numbers or means, aud
marched straight along for A hundred years,
and now numbering a million and a half of
members in tho United Slates, including in ill
ranks many many of the greust and best men
of two centuries, ii nnt .ikely to be autiihiluted
hy the editor nf the Arena. Hut it conies with
bad grace, for uny man claiming Oregon ns
his home, lo uttnek in this manner, the pioneer
church organization of tho Pacific, the Mis
sionaries of which braved all the perils of sav
Bge tribes in a wilderness remote from civil,
ized communities, nud there organized Anier
ienn society, opened farms, laid uut towns aud
cities, and founded an institution ef learning
at which this editor of the Arena himself re
ceived an education.

That ii entirely true. Tho fellow, with
equal truth aud propriety, might have added,
that when an epidemic has abated, the busi
ness of the doctors is diminished. Wo never
heard anybody abuse Ihe doclnrs for abating
the pestilence, ns Democrntio editors now
abuse tho Abolitionists for abating slavery.
Hut while these valiant Demovrnts nre on
that siring. Ihey may as well lake into consid
eration Ihe fact, that the "military success of
Lincoln" hai likewise pat an end to their bus
iness. Wo can easily remember the tun o in
Oregon, when Iho Democracy rejoioed in mo
cessivu victories, and found It! chief htuinesl
in hounding and blackguarding free-State men
nnd particularly the Abolitionists. . Hut the
"military success of Lincoln" has furnished an
obscure ditcb for tho banal nf these dnoghfuce
Democratic, apologists for slavery. The Abo
litionists have finished their business decently,
andean now take dawn tho old sign; while
the apologist! fur slavery Cud their political
slock in trade turned to ruga and ashes in their
hands. The Abolition leaden are out of busi
ness, to bo sure, but then the Democratic lead
ers are Hill worse off out of both business
and character, mid suffering from disgraceful
defeat, The Aboliliouists rejoice in triumph
tho Democrats sorrow in defeat. The Abuli
tiuus have labored to some purpose, as the
corpse i f the dragon testifies ; but the friends
of tho dragon where will you find another

But don't despair, "Southern brethren," the

ihe munv men plot.
Four years ago the world might lmvo re
fused tn credit tho circumstatisiinl and corrob
orated evidenoe of a deliberate plot to intro
duce the yellow fever into ciliei of tho North,
but wo have seen and heard tho horrors of
Lililiy prison and Andorsonvillr, the conspira
cies to murder women and children on railway
trains, to fire crowded cities, and to assassiiiale
tho President and his counselors. Wo know
not whether to call this a more or less fiendish
purpose than lh others, lint we cannot effect
In doubt lis existence merely hecocse it implies
that the meu who served tho rebellion aro
devils.
The evidence show! clearly enough the main
fcuturei nf the plot, though the main actor in
it Dr. Blackbusn, hai escaped into "neutral"
territory. During ihe reoent yellow fever ep
idemic in Bermuda, this Dr. Blackburn tuok
passage for that island. He wai a Southerner,
frnmerlv a resident In Notches, Mississippi.
After his arrival, ho attended several yellow
fever patients tit tho Hamilton Hotel and t a
Mrs. Slater's. Some of them died under his
care. Ho oollected their bed clothing includ
ing a largo quantity of woolen clothing which,
in one onse at least, lie hud ordered to be piled
upon the patients in order to receive tho infec
tion, packed it in trunks, nud sent it to Ihe
house of Edward C. Swan, to be kept by him
till an opportunity offered to sent it North.
Blackburn himself then left for Halifax.
It became known to the authorities of Ham
ilton that this infected clothing was in posses
sion of Swim, and they oansed Ilis arrest. On
Uie preliminary examination, the above facts
appeared. It was shown also that the Health
Ofticer found these trunks In Swan'i posses
sion, crunimed full of clothes that had mani
festly been used by yullow fever patients.
Sm uii himself testified that Blackburn had de
livered these trunks to him. Another witnesi
swore that Swan had told him ho received the
trunks to be sent North, in order to communi
cate the yellow fever. Still another witness
sword that Blackburn had told him ho had do
livered the trunks to Swan for that purpose,
nnd the wages for tho lervico wero variously
stuted at $500 in the whole, and at $130 a
month whilo Swan was engaged in tho busi
ness. And Blackburn told Swan to cull on
Iho officers of the Confederate Government for
money.
Ami thus another hellish iniquity it connect
ed with tliut Confederacy which Northern
Democratic papers huvc apologized for during
Iho past four years; and which wnnld have
become successful if tho Demooratio doctrine
of State sovereignty bad been recognized.

keeping the record uf tho Copperhead editors
before the people. Wo have charged, and in
tend lo repeat the charge, that the editors af
Iho Democrntio paperi in Oregon have been,
and are yet, in criminal sympathy with the
leaders of tho rebellion. We tell you, Demo
ocrats of Oregon, that your papers have mis

will all full into the pit together :

President Johnson's First Appearance.
Wo shall never Inrirct the story told ns nmnr
years ago, by President Johnson himself, and
tin Count in public Hie. ile was, he sum, an
inexperienced boy, just from Ihe tailor's bench
and the backwoods of Greenville. The people
had tent him to tho Legislature tn repreienl
them, and though nwkwurd and diffident, he
had all the desire In the world tn do tho coun
try some service, and mako a creditable figure.
There was a general laud bill under discus
sion, arid he thought ho would try Ins hand on
it, ns about tho simplest nud most interesting
occasion for his maiden Speech. Ho got up
(using his own words in the main) and slather
ed away right and left for about an hour, nt
the publio domain, and sal down thinking that
he bad dono pretty well. There was a mem
ber from the county of Knox by the mimo of
Cuurcuwell, father of one nf the last members
of Congress from Tennessee, and reputed to
he a btiHtard son of Judge Campbell, a politi
cian of tho same State, who was the Secretary
of the Treasury under Madison and Minister
tn Kussia under Monroe. Church well was
very aristocratic, considering his origin, with
an amount of bombast and "swell" nnd "ruf
fle" nhout him. and represented the moneyed
and lauded interests, just ns Johnson repre
sented the poorer class. No looner had tho
latter sat down than Ihe former arose. Hie
manner was more than offensive. He inveigh
ed with great insolence against all tailors, and
especially the tailor from Greenville. Whnt
did they know about public land ? His col
league might mend his coat but nnt his bill, of
which ho possessed as little interest ns knowl
edge, for be was a mere bitd of passage, here
to-day, aim there tomorrow, and so on,
Johnson let him finish his violent harangue,
nnd then bo rose to reply, tho house and gal
leries were crowded with persons who had
heard of the tarn taken by Ihe debate, and
camo up In enjoy tho sport. Tho first portion
of his reply was coufiued altogether lo argu
ment. Johnson says ho stumbled along as best
he could over the ground, and made perhaps
rHi her n poor nut of it. But. by anil hy, lie
reached the perrona! pnrt of the business, and
hero felt nt home. Ho warmed up with his
tlieinu ni he proceeded, dissected Iho attire,
maimers, Ihe uppearuneu of Chnrchwell, from
his shirt oolliir to the toe of bis boot, and final
ly raising his voice tu the highest pitch of
earnestness and vigor, oonelnded thus : "It is
true, sir, that I am a tailor, and I here an
nounce that I am a good tailor, and would spoil
nn man's garment ns the gentleman would spoil
this bill, i am also a uinl ol passage, una
may be here to-day and there to-morrow. Yet
1 am as interested in the land I pass over ns
any stick in-the-mail who never Hies at all.
And Dually, sir. there is one comfort, tailor ns
1 inn, and bird of passago as I may be, thai I
tako tn my heart ; and that is, that I have
lived tn gaze intu the face of An honest man
and call him 'father,' nnd that I do not owe
my existence aiuonir men to tho lust of au il
licit bed." The shock waa tremenditnus. nnd
C'hurchwell wai never able to ruu for oUice
more. He never forgot Johnson or tried to
wigglo out of the terrthle ilillicnlly, and dis
appeared seon alter altogether from political
me.
Oil Drippings. We do not hear so much
about p.-trolenm now as we did a few months
sgn; vet that there aro vast interests still in
volved in its obvious from the tact that the ag
gregate capital paid in, nud still open for sub
scriptions, of the several oil companies whose
cerliticnles are un lite at tbo cilice ol the Seo
rotary nf Slate, at Albany, amounts to three
Hundred and lilty miliums of dollars.
As an instance- of the recent vcissitudes
among oil speculators, wm mar mention an in
oideiit the parallel of which is often met with
in the annals of petroleum. Some twenty
years ago, a gentleman residing iu tho suburbs
of this city inve.led eight thousand dnllnrs in a
tract ot laud iu esurn irgima. His son
went lo tho sunt, cleared a lariu, and, no Ihe
breaking ont ol Ihe war, joined the rebel army.
He was killed in some minor ikirmish, and in
the course of military operation Ihe properly in
question was again included iu Ihe Federal
lines, and, of conrse, reverted lo Ihe original
rnt.:. ., r
owner. a i.i. gt'iiuciiinii, naving inr twenty
yean paid taxes on his distant property, with
out deriving a cent of profit tlterefrom, became
tired nt owning sucli an unproductive estate,
and, against the entreaties of his family, who
thought there might be something valuuble un
der, if not on Ihe soil, mid Ihe truot for fire
thousand dollars three thousand less than he
had paid for il. The purchasers proved lo lie
shrewd speculators, who were aware of the
value of iho property. The oil indications
whii-h iher discovered, thev ouioMr ,u.,i.
known to Ihe public and in one month after
the sale, the land Ihey obtained for five Ihoo
sod dollurs. was declared to be worth one
nnnomi am) nity thousand dollar.. The cha
grin of Ihe unlucky eeller and hii disappoint
ed fnmily may bo imagined.
Those interested iu oil matten lo Western
