In pursuance to the call of tbc lato Union Re publican Central Committee, held at Portland, March 26th, last, fur the next State Convention, the Union voters of Linn County are requested to meet at their respective places of voting in their precincts, on Saturday, March lOth, 18TO, to choose delegates to represent them ia the County Convention, to bo held at the Court House, in Albany, on anursaay, marcn XltD, ISTO, at 11 o'clock A.

Brown and Bellinger were rushing around town furiously the other evening, trying to raise a dollar to enable a tilli cum of the Democratic persuasion, to cross the river and make his way into Benton county, where he (the said tilli cum) has a "nice little job" which is to last for about ninety days. Brown & Co. were not on the give, but they were will ing their friends should expend their last dollar in '-colouiaing" Benton. Oh, those virtuous and honest twins, the 1. B.'s, and so liberal with their advice. They succeeded in getting the dollar, and bundled their man off into Benton county speedily. As Bellinger writes in the last Democrat : "There seems to be no particular desire at concealment" in their efforts to colonize the county with Democratic voters (Bellinger calls them "scallawags"), on the part of the Notice to School District Clerks. Orders on the Treasurer for the school fund due each school district are drawn and de'posited with the County Treasurer. Tho fund apportioned this year is $5,597, but 7$ per cent of which is in currency. This is less than the fund of last year, but the greater amount of coin, and the enhanced value of currency, makes the value of the present appor tionment nearly the same as that of the lust. The amount per scholar is $1 31.81 The number of scholars reported is4,245. Sixty-nine districts have reported this year, while but sixty-one reported in 1SG9. It is believed that every organized dis trict has reported this year, in time to receive its share of the fund. Clerks sending for their warrants, will be certain, in all cases, to send orders, as no warrant will be delivered to any one Peoria! !.".".7. 3 "leaders" of the party, and thus defeat j not named therein, without a written or- Sweetllouie 2 i ,hn will of tho Lonafide residents of th i dcr from the paveo.

It will be remembered that next Saturday is the time appointed for tho holding of pre cinct conventions, to elect delegates to the Republican County Convention, which meets in this city on the Thursday fol lowing March 24th. It is hoped that . Republicans will bear this in mind and , be ia attendance at the meeting?, to the end that good and true men, who repre sent the interests and feelings of their precincts, be sent as delegates to the County Convention.

Their disreputable designs stand out in nuked and revoking ugliness. To behold this carpet-bag invasion is enough to stir a fever in the blood of every honest man in Oregon. However much violence is to be deprecated, yet if the people would organize a vigilance committee and drive these scallawags from the county by force, they would meet the approval of public sentiment in the State and do themselves simple justice." You paint yourselves ; and fellow partizans pretty black, Messrs. j twins j but you should be tho best judges i of this "shameful attempt to overridethe i will of Benton county" on the part of J the Democratic "scallawags" of S. Sup't. More Importations. Five voters left this city for Corvallis, on Tuesday's boat, we are informed, to help the Dem ocracy to carry. Benton county. Two of j District Jude. said "scallawags," as the Democrat felicit ously terms theia,. swore their votes in at our last city election, although it is as serted they were not legally entitled to a vote by several days. As they left here on Tuesday, the 8th of March, they will not have gained a voting residence in Benton county on the Gth of Jnnc next, Gold Excitement. The excitement in the New York gold market on Tues day last is without a parallel since Sep tember last The anxiety of some of the gold dealers assumed the shape of mania, the equal of which has never before been witnessed. Fluctuations were so fre quent in the gold room that dealers re corded nearly one hundred changes dur ing tho day. Everywhere in financial and commercial circles, the gold question was the absorbing topic of conversation, as it continued its downward course. The great decline in gold has further un settled business in mercantile circles, and weakened prices, particularly in the dry goods department. Benton County Nominations. The Benton County Democratic Con ; vention, held last Saturday, nominated the following ticket : For Strte Senator R. S. Straharf, present Prosecuting At torney ; Representatives D. Carlisle and W. R. Calloway ; County Judge John Burnet ; Sheriff, the preseat in cumbent, J. S. Palmer. The Conven tion favored the nomination of J. C. Avery, j for Governor, and Thayer, for Female Suifage. Gov. .Austin, of Minnesota, lias vetoed the Female Suf frage bill passed by the Legislature, on the ground that the clause submitting the amendment to females as well as males is unconstitutional, females not being legal voters. He thinks the prop- although it is probable they will swear in r their votes. Our Republican friends will j Republicans Victorious. Returns do well to look after them.

Paris letter, dated Feb. 21st, hasareport to the effect that the Emperor Napoleon died on the 9th of September last, under the knife of Surgeon Ricord, in his pal ace, and the reigning monarch is the Prince Imperial, as Napoleon Fourth, with the Empress Eugenia as regent. The story runs that the Emperor before bis death received the promise from England, and, it is believed, from Russia, that they would aid in maintaining the Prince on the throne. The whole thing appears very much like a canard, and does not obtain general credence. The Income Tax. The opinion is that the income tax will not be abolished, but some important changes will be made. The proposition that seems to meet with most favor, IS that of increasing tho ion to be exempted to 82,000 or 2,500. Such a change would meet the general approbation of the country, and we hope to see it done before the close of the pres ent session. Mexico. News from Mexico to the 8th inst., state that the Government troops have gained seveial recent victor ies over the insurgents, and the general opinion is that the revolution is ended for the present, but the situation is still critical. Commerce and industry are everywhere prostrated, and famine is imminent in many parts, of the country. The wife of Gen. Toledo, who was captured, has been liberated by Escobedo. Weakening. The chivalrous Dem ocracy of the California Assembly, says tho Oakland 2Cews, are weakening. An amendment to the Marin Railroad bill to the effect that the employment of China men will work a forfeiture of the fran chise, was voted down by a decisive ma jority ayes, 84, noes, 42. Here is a di rect blow at white labor, for which the Democracy are responsible. Interesting. The debates in the New York Legislature, now in setsion, - are pleasant reading.

Those voters that were ferried over on Tuesday night, will hardly have time to gain a legal res idence of three months in Benton county, which will be that mnch Democratic ef fort and money thrown away.

As the twins intimate, public sentiment throughout the State is decidedly adverse to these outrageous acts on the part of the Democracy to "override the . will of Benton" or any other county, and if they "organize and drive these scallawags from the county by force, they will meet the approval of public sentiment in the State and do themselves simple justice."

The Bare-faced openness which has attended this import ation business on the part of Democrats, has thoroughly disgusted the honest and better informed portion of the party, numbers of whom have denounced in no measured terms the villainy of such schemes and schemers, and announced that they will support no such men for office. It will not be many days before these parties who have played a leading i part in this colonization business will be- ccme ashamed of their course, and deny, in the most bitter terms, their connection !

General Hamilton, Senator elect from Texas, is announced as on his way to Washington, bearing the official notification of the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments. Who Pats the Bills ? We are credibly informed that one of the parties sent up to Corvallis on Tuesday's boat has been a pensioner on the bounty of Linn county since last September. If he is a citizen of Linn county, why is he sent into Benton county on the eve of an important election ? If he is a ci izen of Benton county, by what authority were the tax-payers of Linn county called upon to support him ? And did Linn county furnish the funds necessary to support him, he still being a cripple, during the short time (eighty-nine days) he will be required fo reside in Benton county? And if there is any honesty or decency in such transactions, show us the point. Moore's Rural New-Yorker. The number for January 8th is before us, which if anything is an improvement on previous numbers. We have on former occasions spoken of the Rural in the highest terms, because we deemed it one of the best, if not the best, publications in its line in the L nion. It commences the new year as an illustrated literary rural and family weekly, having several beautiful illustrations in the number be fore us. It is filled with entertaining and useful matter, from the first pens of the age, and altogether is just such a paper as every citizen in the country needs and should subscribe for. It is published by D. D. T. Moore, New York city and Rochester, N. Y., at the low price of $3 per annum, or to clubs of ten or more, 2 50 each. Still on It. The twins are still look ing and anxiously inquiring if there are any more cripples of the Democratic persuasion that can be obtained, that are williua to be " colonized " in Benton county. So far as we are aware they have gobbled them all up, and pastured them in a Republican county, to " over ride the will of the people." "Dirty work" just suits the caliber of the "old est Democratic paper in Oregon " chaps. Omissions. The fallowing were omitted from their places in the lint of premiums on the first page.

They accused of disgracing his State and the office he holds by selling cadetships, fear ing the consequences he has brought upon himself by his dishonorable transactions, sent his resignation as Representative to the Governor of Kentucky, post haste. Governor Stevenson telegraphed to Gol laday, refusing to grant hrs resignation, saying that "his duty to his State, his constituents and his own honor, demand a full investigation of the charges against him." We fear the Democracy will lose another "type and able exponent of pure and undefiled Democracy," soon after the investigation of the charges made against him, as he will doubtless be expelled from his seat. Strategy (his attempted re signation) failed to connect in his case. In the light of this and other instances of rascality in the Democratic party of daily occurrence, does it not become journals of this ilk to be prating about the venality and dishonesty of the party in power ?

IN presenting the claims of this NEW KNIT TIXG MACHINE to popular faror. we aim at no more than a brief and candid statement of its actual merits. We confidently claim that tho CLIMAX KNITTER is superior to all other ma chines in tue fullwing respects : ..i 1. Simplicity of construction and operation. 2. Completeness and excellence of work. 3. Convenience of shape, sixe and weight of machine. - 4. Durability of machine. 5. Rapidity of work. C. Cheapness. It is so simple in its construction and in it workings, that less than half the time is required to learn to knit on it than on others. With it the children of the household can do all the knitting. It is made entirely of iron and steel. A man's sock can be made in thirty minvtte. It makes the regular uld old-fashioned knitting needlo stitch' or loop, (with "several others if desired); turns the heel, making it of as good shape as by hand, without any sewing ; narrows or widens, at the pleasure of the operator, and makes a per fect toe. Any article that can be knit by.hand, can be manufactured on this machine.' Persons who wish to see the machine in opera tion, are requested tc tll on the agent in this city. S.S. IH&KKIIAXn &. SON, Agents for Oregon. Albany, Ogn., Feb. 12, 1870.-23 Telegraphic Summary. St. Louis, March 7. The U. S. Mar shal nas received instructions Irom Scared. The Democracy hereabouts are considerably worried, and some of them go so far as to predict a defeat, if the "whisky ring" are allowed to control the nominations at the -coming County Convention. Tho "whisky ring" puts on a bold front, and insists on making the nominations, but promises to play it so ''low down" that the unwary will sus pect nothing, and those who are wise enough to "see it" will be compelled to swallow the .dose on pain of excommuni cation. As on former occasions, we ex expect to see the "ring" triumphant, and the rank and file forced to vote their ticket whether they like it or not. Combino-wooled Sheep. Mr. Jos eph Holuian, of Salem, who has recently returned from a trip to the Eastern States and Canada, brought home with him, says the Farmer, two Cotswblds and a Leicestershire sheep, which will be a valuable addition to the class already here. Oar farmers are showing the pro per spirit in thus improving their stock as circumstances will admit, and increas ing the wealth of the State. Denunciatory.

Therefore it will be seen that with a good ticket, composed of honest, compe tent men, we stand a fair show to carry even the Democratic "banner county" in favor of right and justice. Let us see to it that a county ticket is nominated that embiaces all the elements of strength required. ' . . ' Successful Surgical Operation. Mr. T. n.
