Itut look at the course of these honnds, tliese hell deserving hounds in the dem ocratic party, who now profess such friendship for tlio soldiers. What did they do for the soldior while in the servioo?

"robbers," " thieves," " murderers," and every other vile epithet that their Ratauic hearts could conceivo, or their hellish tongues oxpressl Did not their lenders in Congress volo against supplying tlio soldiers with fuod and clothing? Did they not oppuan their receiving any pay? Did not their spokesmen in Oregon oppose the proposition to pay the soldiers live dollurs per uioiith in State bonds, nfter the sol diers had faithfully served the State for thruo years, and periled their lives on the frontiers, at sixteen dol lars pur month in greenbacks, to protect the livos and property of these same detnocratio hounds from the ravuges of the Indians? And did not these same dem ocratic honnds oppoBO the giving of bounties to tho soldiers. fur enlistment, to protect our enterprising mi tiers and poor pioneers, at a time when there were but a few hundred soldiers in all the vast Indian territory embraced in Oregon, Idaho, and Washington, and no soldiers to bo had from tho U. 8.

And have not tliese democratic hounds, in every way they cuuld, tried to heap reproach und odium on our brave sol- diem, encouraged their enemies, rejoiced at Iheir de feats, sorrowed at their victories, and attempted to rob and starve their wives and children, by opposing their proper payment, ami by ridiculing and depre ciating their uiouey? It is true ; overy word of it.

" is expected from the Leg islature at the coping extra sessiou ;" not hav ing yet been infirnied that the extra session was called for tin purpose of enacting " a new school law," and in my simplicity, siippnsinir that a few atueillments to the old law would nmko it answer ps yet lor a year or two, But when I read tlwt "our old law is worth but littlu more than 10 111 noli blank paper in flnr statute books," Iliegan tn think that, of course, we are now to have Something grand; and when I saw tin distinguished names of the members of tin Conimittue, "nil practical teachers of miitft oxperiuuoc," who wuro to prepare this imtruinont. my expectations at onoe sontetl so- f&r away into the ideul exoullen oy of our future ichnol system tlmt they came very near not gelling buck again, I bad sunn! lit tic fear, also, that the system would lie so snpior to the pliiu old law under. which I had labored so oonfmtedly, tlmt n common country school teacher like myself might nut be able to meet its requTemcnts, and so poor mu would be crowded iff the truck entirely. I do not blitue the writer of the urtiolii in ijiii'Htinn, hmvvvcr, for condemning our present law ; for I stipnse he considered his own would nnt be much letter, and, nfonursn, the old law must I 0 tabooed liufnru tho now oue ouuld at tract nttent'on enough for sonsideratbin. A second rmsnn why I do not Illume the writer for oomlf inning tho present law is, that 1 myself, some time since, Itfiiring our law pretty freely douounced by OJrtuin parties, concluded that it was surely a poor tfl'air. and probably so expressed myself. Ol" course, therefore, I cannot hhinio another fur tlio same iiHense. But I nfterwnrdi found, alien I seriously con sidered what sections I would niter, ami what I would substitute in their place, or add lo the law, that it was no ensy matter to prepare 11 system that would stiind the test of even my own feeble criticism. Hence I ooticludt'd, like the Committee, that ft is not "necessary to make any essential ehungo iu the present law," but that, so far as it goes, with a few amend ments, it will do very well. And n third reason w hy I cannot lilatne the writer of the article is question is. that 1 11111 ol tho impression that it is the innlienable prerog- nlivo of tho American people to find ull the fnult possible with every law enacted. As n " sovereign," therefore, the writer has a right to grumble as much ns lie pleases. But to return to the ' new school law." I find that, np to the prcunt time, the Committee have only agreed upon four items, to utt: A ritiite supervision; a county snperintenueiicy i examination nf touchers, ntul the district clerk I design to cntisidor the proposed ohutiges : A Stnto inperintcndeiiuy is not conteiuplutcd hy the old law. 1 lie necessary inlcrcnue. then, Is. that the old law is defective iu this resneot, r that it was not necessary at tho time nf the ennclnient uf the old law, but that tbu increus iug wants of lint country demand it now, or that there (Iocs not now exist sufficient cause for said siiperiutenili'iicy. Tho first of these hypotheses may well be disputed, tho si-coud may no rensnuahly probable, anil the third I worthy of serious consideration. I suppose the duties which the Committee nresrrilio lor the State Siiperiiiteuil""' 'iodY ihe principal rensons why thev consider this olliuo uecessury and I will therefore notice tho sniuc. Clinngitig tho order of the duties of the Slate Superintendent somewhat, I find their enumer ation, ns set forth by tho committee, to be to visit each county uucu a year to intend teach era institutes; to issue diplomas tn teachers qualified to receive them; to issno forms, hliinks, ctc.;'to decidn questions of appeal; to have a general supervision of the system; to make certain reports of his labors, etif.; to give bonds for the faithful performance of his duties, and tbu disbursement of moneys coining into bis hands; to he furnished with un oflice, well supplied with nil the necessary accompani ments; nnd "fo he paid yearly a salary nf ?..)iHi: ' the Inst item no iloulit being con sidered by Ihe Coiutiutlee the most important, ns they hare placed it first 011 tlio list, nfter the Superintend! ut is elected and his office fur mailed him. After oarefully elan iniug nil the above. I am forced to the conclusion that, if these constitute all. nr even a principal or lend ing portion of tho most important italics of a Stntti Superintendent, we huve but very little use for that ollicer. My reasons for thus concluding are these: Blanks and forms con be defined by statute, and the State Printer can furnish tliem to County Superintendents, for ili-tiiliutimi. at a Inr less price than the cost of a Slate Superin tendency ; Ihe questions of appeal are net likely to be numerous enough tn justify the creating of a new office at $2.5110 a Vein, especially 111 wo hnve competent tribunals eiioiioli already for the deciiiion of any question that may nriso ; the Coveruor, being Slate Superintendent un til another is elected, could, if uecessarv. issue diplomas to tenchers. nitd I question his having applications enough in this lino to seriously in ter ere with bis gubernatorial dutiis: County Superintendents and teachers interested can organize nnd keep up teachers' institutes nt much less expense than 92.500 a year ami per iinisites; in short, if tho duties set forth em body the more important deftnuds for a Stale Snperinleudeiiey. I consider them entirely 111 adequate tn the expense, and as really hardly furnishing soluctent basis lor a serious consid eration of the question. It mnv he said that the article in the states man gives only a synopsis 01 too proposea change. He it so. It mnv be reasonably be inferred that a less would take precedence o! a grejtter, and henco we may fairly presume that the Committee, so far as they have considered, have soirgosted their most important changes, and in the labors and duties prescribed, hare set forth the main reasons for said changes. Therefore, this position cnimot nffect mv argil meiil. and as there is hut littlu necessity for any Additional court or ollicer to decide questions of appeal ; as forms and blanks can be furnished under our laws just ns well, and nt comnara tively but a trilling expense; a the giving of itiplnmaa to tenchers is ton insignificant to call lor such expense; ami as visiting teachers III stitutes. whilst furnishing a nice opportunity for soine pompous official to parade hi frvortte hobbies at f i.'iW) a year, still should occupy, at most, no more than a secondary position of a State Superintendent, II even that, tor these reasons, to enumerate no more, I con elude that, if fliere can ho no morn wcirlny reasons advanced for the creation of this oilice than those inferred Irom the article in the Statesman, tht office in question would be too expensive a luxury tn be demanded nt present. Oregon is as yet hardly able or willing lo pur chase so extravagant a sinecure ; mid until sounder reasons can be advanced for the crea tion of this office than have been advanced, it it to be honed that Ihe same " misunderstand ing and nndue maneuvering nf some pretended friends of common schools outside ol Ilia Leg islature" will be brought to bear at tho next session, and the Stale be saved from so grievous an infliction. The Injury arising from the d. f at of this measure wouid be scarcely percep tible, except to a few aspiring politicians. I wonld n it have it interred however, that I am opnorrd In our having a State Superinten deticy nf Instruction, nor that I think it on-n.-ressarv si the present lime tn create such an oibee. I do consider that there are abundant and impoMBiit services requiring the full atten tion of such an aflicer, ami good rensnns exist ing for the establ shment of the ohioe nt the present time. And whilst it is true that I should probably embody the principle items set forth in tiie Statesman article among the duties and requirements of the State Superintendent, yet Utey would occupy merely a secondary or incidental position in comparison with other and more important duties, and. 01 licmtcivcs. would hy no means justify the establishment ol tho olliue. I havo not room in this number tn shn.' my reasons for considering the oflice de manded, nut will present them in a tuture arti cle. Alpha. NEiiUO SUFFRAGE. En. Statesman : The articles published in the Statesman nf October 2d and 2Ud. upon this subject, appear lo me so unjust, that I would prove false to my principles were I tn pass them by iu silence. We honor and respcot the black man who has battled for the defeiiso of tlio Union and a free Government, and the niau that does not is a traitor nt heart. This is a good text, bnt we propose to preach from it a different doctrine from that advanced by the Statesman, We believe tlmt any truly democratic or re publican form of government can successfully govern two distinot raoes, whose objects and aims are identical (life, liberty and the pursuit nt happiness, for instance), with equal political ri:hts to both, and wo propose showing how it can be done, Our method is a stinplo one, though perhaps somcwhnt novel. It would he nothing more than strict jiialioc.snys the States man. to give the elective franchise to some two hundred thousand negroes 111 tho United States, who nre fully qualified to exeroise it, and many ol' whom pnv larL'O taxes to support the Gov eminent. That is mv solution of tho whole question be strictly just to all men, and if democratic or republicm tnrms ol government ennnnt exist under such circumstances, let them give place tn some other form, that will not only preach justice tint practioe It. Wu nro makiiiir history, said President Lincoln. Let ns see tn it that it is well made. 1 am no man worshipper, yet I conscientiously believe that President Lincoln wus as pure a man as over filled the Preridential chair, nnd one of the lust men to say or do anything that in his judgment would injure his country or his race, Where is the man so verdant ns to suppose that he had not given to this stiH'nige question his most se rious thoughts, nnd yet among tho last, if not llto very last, public speech he ever made, nnd just three days before his death, in speaking of the reconstruction policy in Louisiana. expressed himself in favor of tho intelligent Negro, and all others who had manfully fought the battles of their ontiiitry, having the right of suffrage extended to them. I hope I may be pardoned for preferring his testimony upon this point In til at of either Sherman or Cox. Tho former's round with Johnssn has not given me a very exalted opinion of his statesmanship, and the latter mnv have had an ax to grind, for aught I know, about the time he wrote that letter. If the idea advanced, that while men on this side of tho water nre equal to white men on the other, be correct, let us alter the Declaration of Independence, and hare it rend as it should, that nil while men. etc It is my humble opin ion, that had that word while been inserted in the immortal document bv its trainers, it never would have risen to the dignity of a stump speech. But we nro told that, to confer sul frage upon the negro would be a departure from the settled policy of the Government ever since its organization. Well, what of that ? Shall science in every oilier form advance with giant strides, nnd that of government remain station ary ? When in the history of our nation hit) tlio Executive appointed Military Governors over sovereign Slates? II it call rightfully chinii the power to cooler citizenship upon a man who has forfeited nil such right, can it not confer the same l ight upon a mini who bus never enjoyed it 7 Cerlainly not, says the Statesman And why 7 neciiiise die Inrmer is a white man the latter 11 black one. That may he good reasoning, but I cannot see it. "The man that gives his heart honestly," etc., etc. Well, here goes, Sir. hditor : 1'or try part, I nut willing to go tn the polls with any man of any color, country or race miner Heaven, who is ready to stand forth and fight, if need be, fur the inalienuhlu rights of man, In wit: " llto. liberty and the pursuit of happiness;" and I uoiild do it, too, with a much better grace than I could by the side of A.

Tho frogs were raugnd in line upon a bare pine table about 40 loci in length.

He rode np to them after they had left the body iu the dead house, and asked tliem by what authority they were oat there. Stewart replied tlmt they were there hy proper authori ty.
