From letter written uetfy a gentleniaii ac
quainted with all the facte In tho case, we are
abbs tn make the following statement, in rela
tion tn tli recent seizure of the California
Warn VaVlgalion Compitny'ieteumer Orizaba,
by Collector Adams, on her last trip to Oregon.
The offense for whioh thu Orizaba ie forfeited
is thie : On the 3d of October, 1805. Captain
Burn look on board of the Orizaba a lot of
passenger and baggngu from the steamship
Active, about eix mile below Aatoria, in the
Columbia river. The Orizaba wa on her wny
out, going to San Francisco. The Active wae
coining in from Victoria, a foreign port. The
Act of March 2d. 1709. required the Active to
come to tli ouetoio-honee, at Astoria, report
all her cargo, baggage and all, enrrender the
same for examination, and obtain a permit
fioiu the Collector, before alio could lawfully
unlado any part of her cargo. For putting it
off on another vessel before complying with
the law, the Active is forfeited, if ihe morcban
disc is worth $100, The Captain and mate
arc liable to a lino of $1,400 each, and liable
to be deprived of holding any office of profit or
trnst nnder the United State not exceeding
seven years, no matter what was the value of
tho merchandise so unladed. Tho Orlz iba.
for taking on board any such 'merdbandise, is
forfeited, and tho Captain and mato are liable
tn a fine amounting to three time the value of
tho luerchatidiie. The offense wa one nf tho
greatest known to the law, and show a dispo
sition on the part nf the officer to trample on
the law and defy the U. S. authorities.
Tho " baggage " put off on the Orizaba (a
coaster which is not examined In Sun Francis
co by custom officers, it not coming from a for
eign port) might, an. I prolinlilj did contain
largo quantities of opium and other dutiable
mrrchaiidiio.
Capt. Burns, of the Orizaba, ie the eaine man
who was on Ihe Pacific when seized in San
Frnncieon for smuggling $00,000 worth of np
am; the some man who commanded the Pit
e.ifio when she was seized by Collector Adams,
last February, for smuggling in $5,000 worth
or opium, and the same fellow who thrust the
poor ftidew into the dirty steerage. bole of his
ship, after she had paid caliin passiigo on the
ill fated Brother Jonrthan. (This case was
related iu tho Stateiman.) ' He is the same
follow who crowded the decks of his steamer
with steerage passengers, last winter, took their
money, and then refused them bedding, com
pelling them tn sleep on a wet, cold deck, caus
ing SiHiie of them to have their fiet badly
frozen. : ,
Melville Erskine, first mate of the Active, is
the same fellow who was first mate of the Pa
cifio when she was seized Inst February; the
fellow whom Inspector Gray caught opening
the opium trunks, aud then tearing the mark
off and oarryiug the trunks back on board of
the P.ioiDo. ,
It looke a though the California Steam av.
igatinn Company kept the villain in their em
ploy on purpose tn smuggle, and that there was
an undemanding beforehand about the meet
ing of the Orizaba and Active below Astoria,
on tho 3d of October, in order tn unlado for
eign merchandise from the Active. One nf
their own attorneys (Stout) told the Collector
that they had esoaped to long, ami been re
leased by the Department so often, they had
become to bold that they felt salo in a high
handed course, and were encouraged tn tram
ple on the law. He said he would like to
see them taught a lesson hy the loss of one or
Iwo of their steamers. II or na told the Collect
er, when he aeixml the Paoifio, that a seizure
amounts to nothing, for they are always re
leased at Washington." (The Pacific is not
yet released, aud we do not believe that she
will he. Judge Williams writes that Secretary
MoCulloch don't talk like releasing her.) Mr.
Adam I determined to make thru fellow
obey the law and respect th authorities. -In
doing this, be will be fully sustained hy the De
partment. The Statnman is th only paper
which has so far sustained tho Collector in his
contest with these fellow's. In fightiug au or
ganized hand ol imugglura and heavy monnp
olists, the Ore gnnian lias never dared or desired
to say a word in favor of the Collector. It
seems, just now, however, to be (joining round
a littln.
Just here we will add another faot, not here
tofore published : On the trip before her seizure
at Snn Francisco, for smuggling, the Pacific
had v.vy strangely put into Coo Itay. ostensi
bly fur mat, $o steamer before or since ha
ever done anoh a thing, and there were not
wanting a good many suspicious that the trip
to Cikk wae in eome way onnoeaU-d with the
smuggling scheme, hut there wae no customs
nllioer there, aud no im'estigatioii was ever had.
i Herralter wo u:ay have something tn say of
Ihe ease with whioh these smugglers escape Ihe
peualtie of tho law before Portland Juries,

The above affords an excuse for stating a
fact or two that we desire the farmers of Ore
gon to know. Mr. O'Meara may not be aware
of tho fact, hut the truth is, that the ticket he
refers to was uot made np at the Si ataman
office. The Stateiman job-office simply look
the tickets prepared by Wailt If Walling, and
printed from those oopies as many as was de
sired, making but a single change, and that was
the insertion of Jiid;e Peebles' name for Corre
sponding Secretary in place of the name of .
M. Walte. Th Vice Presidents were the same
as those of last year, with oue or two exuep
tions, and these exoeption were io the oases
of person who had removed from their re
spective counties.
, As tn the residonoa of the oflloers, it is not
true that they wero all from Marion county.
Waite putjin his own name a a resident of Ma
rion county, when be ie a resident of Mnllnomah.
hot his name was not on our tickets. Of the
other officers, we printed the Dames of Palmer
of Yamhill, Kddy of Clackamas. Geer nf Mari
on, and Donthit and Barrows of Linn ; and iu
the result, which has been called a Stateiman
triumph, Linn county got both the President
and Recording Secretary, while Marion got the
other Secretary (who is required tn livo here)
and the Treasurer. Now, where i tli room
for complaint J i
But here is another fonture of that election
which the Democrat ought also to reprehend.
It was tho duty nf Seoretary Waite to liirnisli
"blank tickets" for that election; but in ad
dition to furnishing four or five hundred blank
ticket (none of which were used), he furui bed
a thousand or more printed tickets uf different
forms, but in every one of which hii own name
was printed for Secretary. Either he or Wal
ling hud a perfect right to provide just as many
printed tickets as they desired voted, provided
the' paid for them themselves, lint when we
come to examine their hills against the Society,
we find that Mr. Waite has presented Wai
ting's bill, nnd collected pay for one thou -aud
"lilanli tickets" aiuJ four hundred other tickets.
Theso other ticket wero tile tickets printed to
promote tho electioneering schemes nf Walling
and Waite and thu Society lias had tn "font
tho bill." (If the bill had corresponded with
'he facts, it ought to have been rendered for
lour hundred blanks and one thousand others.)
Wo made the chargo before the Fair, that
Waite intended to lire the Society to promote
his (Walling') private purposes, and we think
that we have now made good the assertion.
Another point. The Democrat thinks that
we secured the election of Judge Peebles in
order to secure the Society's printing, and sug
gests that the printing ought now to be let to
the lowest bidder. To the charge we reply.
no such thing. Judge.I'eeliles was never spoken
to about the printing. Htid neither is there an'
understanding between him and the Stateiman
on that suhj.iot. The Judge is nnder no obli
gations to us, and w ill do as he sees proper
about the printing. To the suggestion nf the
Democrat, that tho printing should lie let to
the lowest bidder, we reply, that the printing
is of such a character, nearly all of it, as to
render that impracticable. However, we have
do objections, il it cau lie dune.
Wool Gkdwinu is Jackson County.
Tlie Reporter is trying tn stir the people of
Uiigno River Valley op to ihe importance of
the producing ami manufacturing of wool. Il
make an estimate, bused upon shipments
tnadu by Jacksonville merchants, that Jackson
and Josephine counties have produced, during
the past year, from seventy-five to one hundred
thousand pnnuds. At ihe price quoted for wool
in the Jacksonville market quotations ( 121 cts.
per pound), this wool only hruught a return of
Iroin $0,500 to $ 12.000. At the average price
in the Willamette Valley, that wool would have
produced, for the raw staple, about $20.(1(10,
and, if manufactured at a hum factory, not
less than $100,000. The Reporter argues that
there i a ready market for the product of a
factory, not only in Jack-on and Josephine
counties, hut also in northern California, Owy
hee, Humboldt, and other milling regions to
the eastward. Il looks as if there was a favor
able opening down there for a small factory,
and some uf our factory men might improve
their time weil hy looking alter it. very uv

The excitement tins week has been the races.
Several guild horses were here, and some very
good trotting and fast ronniug has been pro
duced lor Ills amusement of the " metropoli
tans," The race between Jack Miner and
Jeff Davis, mile heats, best two in three, was
3uite spirited time, J:.r" and 1:52; won by
ack M iner. Tho single Juli of a mil between
lleenan, Humboldt aud Ida Martin, was very
exciting, a large amount of money being bet.
Time. 1:52 ; won by Ida. A trotting race came
off between Wells brown filly and Hulery-
gelding, best two in three. First heat won by
the gelding in 3:21 ; second and third won by
the lillv. In 3:13 aud 3:10. The statement in
the Oregonian, that a matoh-racu lias been
made np between Humboldt and Jack Miner,
for $,'.000, ainirle dash of four miles, to come
off within tlx weeks, is all stuff, nothing of it
whatever. These are about all the races
worthy of reporting. ,.-.-,'
CITV IMPBOVEMENTS. .
The cite authorities are still prosecuting the
work of improving the streets and sidewalks,
in a very energetio manner. The macadam
izing on Front street, by Perry & Co., is a fine
Job.
THE 8TATR PRINTING.
The Stateiman' i articles on this subject have
pleased everybody in Portland. Little Pittock
is a subject only for pity. He is himself a good
natnred, harmless little fellow ; but ho allows
himself to be entirely controlled by A. G.
Wulling, who, besides being a virulent Cop
perhead, ia a candidate, ol intends to be. il
possible, on the next Copperhead ticket for
the office of State Printer. He has had Ihe
printing in his hands, and under his control,
and believing that, by delaying the work and
putting Pittock up to several questionable little
tr'n ks to " cramp " the State, he could do the
Copperheads a great deal of good, unit earn
some claim to a nomination, he has done so.
Everybody here is satisfied that the work could
have been done by thu 1st of May last, if it had
been for Wttlling's interference
A NEW PAPER.,:
By the way, we have a prospect of a new
daily paper here. Almost anything would lie
welcomed. The Urtgonian it ton weak in
Ihe back to represent the interests of Port
laud. We want a journal with some vigor and
force, and whose ediiors ean do more than write
no a ibiK.fiitbt, or compose a school-hoy essav.
A wide awake Uuinu journal would supplant
the Oregonian in a very short time. aud. under
tli- present arrangement, a Copperhead paper
might lie supported.

It not been for sorno misunderstanding and un
due maneuvering uf some pretended friends of

Feeling the need of some notion on this all
important question at as early a day as possi
ble, the Statu Teachers' Educational Associa

meeting in Salem, in July last, appointed a
committee to draft a law, or em body their

is at work, digesting ami prcparinr something
which they trust will be practical fur Oregon.

, , Tim ''SMIUBLIXG Bl'SISKHS."
The following circular has been issued by
the Secretary of tho Treasury to the U. 8.
Collectors of Customs t " I
Sir : Tho great number of persons now en
gaged on the frontiers of the United States,
and in ourcommercial cities, in smuggling, aud
the large amount of foreign goods which are
got in without payment of duties, render it im
perative upun the Officer of Custom to ex
ercise extraordinary viirilanoa aud energy in
detecting and preventing these violations of
law, a well as promptitude iu prosecuting ev
ery man who may be found imnggling.
The Denartment ha been informed that an
idea prevails among the people on the frontier
that smuggling is a very narmiess nusiness ;
that. tlniiiL'li contrary tn law, yet the only pen
alty attached tu itu violation is the possible
loss of the gouds smuggled, snouiu uiey imp
nen to be seized. The Dcuurtmeiit is ui will
ing to believe that such au erroneous view nf
the law can prevail to any extent; out, mat
the community may know what the law really
is on this subject, nnd tn what penalties one
may subject himself hy violating it, it will he
well to have it published ill some oue or more
newspapers in your District, trie taw is as
follows :
"That if anv person shall knnwinclv and
wilfully, with intent to defraud th revenue of
the United States, smuggle or clandestinely
introduce into the United States nny goods,
ware, or merchandise suldect tn duty by law.
and which should have been invoiced, without
puylng or accounting for '.lie duty, or shall
make nut, or pass, or attempt to pus through
Hie onstoiii-lioiise, any false, lorged, or Iraoilu
lent invoice, every snoh person, her, or their
aiders ami alienors, shall he deemed guilty of
a inisdeiueaunr, and on conviction thereof shall
he fined In nny sum not exceeding five thous
and dollars, or Imprisoned for any term of time
qot exceeding two years, nr both, at discretion
of the Court." Act ofMth Auguit, 1842. sec
lion 19.
Smuggling is therefore a MISDEMEANOR,
and the smnrgler, upon conviction, liable to
pay a fine of FVE THOUSAND DOLLARS,
or be IMPRISONED TWO YEARS, or
BOTH.
This law all Officers of Customs are expeot
ed to enforce; aud Courts in different parts ol
the country are enforcing, it with commendable
viiror, several persons lately convicted nf
sinugitling having beon sentenced tu both fine
and imprisonment.
It is not to he credited tlmt nny large por
tion of the people of the United Stales should
permit their sympathies to be enlisted iu favor
of those who are engaged in smuggling; and
yet some, do so to such an extent as to give
tin-in ai l and oonntenance ; to ooncenl them
aud their goods from the Officers of Customs ;
to give false information tn the latter, and no
tice to the former when iu danger of heiug
ditected.
Smugglers are violator of the law, and are
making war upon the country as truly as did
tho rebels, though not to the tame extent.
Hut suppose every man should assume the right
to violate any law that did not auit him, what
would he the oondition of the country ? We
should he in a state nf anarchy and lawless
ness, in which none hot bullies could live in
safety, and even they wnnld be iu a constant
state of warfare ; no taxes could he collected,
nor could government he carried on.
The people of this nation have now a heavy
lint sacred debt resting on their shoulders ; tho
interest of this must b paid, and iu due time
the principal; to enable tho Government to
meet it liabilities, Congress ha established
certain rates of doty upon foreiirn goods import
ed into tho United States, and has also levied
certain internal taxes. Now, if the Gov
ernment fails to collect duties upun foreign
giwds, then the deficiency must bn made up by
internal taxes upon the people ; so thnt if the
people lessen the revenue from customs hy en
couraging, fostering, and protecting smugglers,
they must pay higher rate of internal taxes to
make np the deficiency.
Surely they cannot fail, then, lo see that
smugglers are their enemies, warring npoo
than as well as the Government, which is noth
ing but their servant.
It may be well for yon to give that whoever
shall give.iufoi mation of smuggling, that shall
lead to seizure and forfeiture of goods, will he
entitled to one quarter of the value of the
goods seized. Such information may he giveu
to nny Officer of Customs by any person.
Your uhedic ut servant,
N. Sarornt, Commissioner.

New York. Oct. 23.-The llerald'i Jack
(Mississ'ppi (correspondent presents an un
pleasant picture of the political and social
state nf affairs in that State. The Legislature
which met last Mo .day has some difficult work
before it. the worst nf which will probably be
lo resuscitate the finances, which are in a shuck
ing condition. The debt of Ihe State is large,
but though many people iavor a second resort
lo the expediency of repudiation, it is thought
Mississippi ha had enough of this, and will
nut try il again, except a far as regards the
satisfaction of her debt contracted to assist the
rebellion, all nf which it is believed will be ig
nored. Another question with which mem
bers will hare to deal, is that relative to admit
ing negro testimony in the cejirU. The ma
jority of them are said to be In favor of this
concession, a indicated hy the ele'clion of
Gov. Sharkey (who insists on it) lo tlie posit
ion of United Slate Senator, and by choosing
for Stale Printer a gentleman who lias always
favored it.
