Mrs. Carney, of Leavenworth, pomte with pride to a record ot 117 bushels Acrimonious Criticism. The following from the Pendleton Tribune of June 12th, is too good to be lost. Sarcastically speaking, it's the best thing ever spun from Mr. Abbott's pen. It ia headed "Acrimonious Criti cism," and it shoots it into the! "Gen-. eral" as. follows : ' , That sterling Democratic paper, the Albany Democrat, referring tp the call of the Democratic State Ceutra.1 Com mittee fur a rneting of that Committee on the 24th says: "We regard it as unfortunate that the Committee meet ing was not called for a.n earlier date than the 24th of June." Now, -we do not preteml to. d.ictate. It would be unparalleled presumption in us. But we woul mildly "suggest that such acrimonious criticism is Kurt- r ful to the. party, and ought to La bl Insti tuted, by a victorious tight on the cora irpn entroy.'A Su.ph ." undue .an , xsty Csiticisrns" as the above, coming -- 'hey do, fijoui that brave, and valiant, and battle-scarred soldier, General Martin Van Buren Brown Esq., fill us with unutterable and, unearthly iain and sorrow. We hope the. General -who like Saul, and David, ad Alexander, and Cajsar, and Napoleon, a,nd Oliver Coruiweli, has slain his. thpttsajids and tens of thousands and left their bpnes to Uieacli u,poy an - hitklrcd ensansuined battle-fields rwiU not consider tt the he plus ultra, of impudence iu u,s, if wp express. tp opiuion as wp npw do r that the time set for the cftnv.oca,tpn'pf the Cop)mittCP is, all things considered, about the best that could have been selected.

But, as it is, they have time no.w to a.rra.nge and go to the Valley; and if Eastern Oregon Interests are not l)roperly represen,ted, certainly will not be the tiU of Mr. Klippcl, "chair man of the Cornmittec. We judge that hej at least, desires to deal out tho same jvtticeto the Deiu.opracy living East of the Cascades that he wouM to those living in the Willamette Valley. re regret exceedingly that we are thus compelled to differ with General Vartin Ban Kucn Brown, covered with glory and ponderously weighty and talented as he is ; and we humbly hope that we hare not comnvtled the unpardonable sin by so. doing. We are well aware that the General has been so long in the Democratic army, serving in camp and tented field, that his body is cov ered all over with Democratic moss, and his posterior with very large Demo cratic cockle-burs. We admit that the General's utterances ought to be con sidered oracular and conclusive; but, being impressed with a conviction, which hre cannot burn out of us, that Eastern Oregon has been immensely humbugged and swiudled, 00 more than one occasion heretofore, by. wire-pullers iu the alley ; and having a strong desire to see our people tairly dea It by hereafter, we felt it to be our bouuden duty, as a resident ot Eastern Oregon, to diner as above with the puissant j (not pismire) General. Yp cheerfully admit that the General is very talented, and wise, and that he possesses remark able powers of sta.tesipAUS.hip as well as military ability of no copinion, prefer. Candidly we are pf the opinion that were Alexander he Great, Hpmulus, Pompey, Capsar, . Veipasian, Napoleon, Wellington' Cromwell, George W., Pope, Grants Lee, Crockett, Boone and Wenap-snoot all boiled down and moulded into one. perfect man, they would lack m,uch of possessing the military- power, ability and talent wrapped o,pi in tbe epidermis and centered in the massive bjain of the petite. General. When we view this subject from this stand-point we confess we tremble iu our. number sevens at the audacity and temerity which ha,vp led us tp, utter a single word in defence of Mr. KlippeL We humbly trust that our General, refulgent with qazzltng glory, and glis teni 113 epaulettes, and hiuiiehed blade ot Damascene steel and jeweled hilt will not again pen such' " acrimonious criticisms" as those to whfch we have alluded; because they are unquestionab ly "hurtful to the party, and out to be substituted by a victorious fight on the common enemy ;'" and because also. we will be again placed under the very painful necessity ot uttering our protest, and thus placing ourself in seeming an tagonism to the greatest Statesman, Jurist, Poet-as8;ter and General that this great world hgs spawned npon the tideof time since the morning stars sang together in their primal purity i magnifi cence and glory.

But ih the case of Washington it must be remembered that he was practi cally President from 1774 to 1797, a pevibd ot twenty-three years. As Gen eral of the armies he dictated to Con gress the whole policy of the war of the Revolution. After his retiring from the command of the army, in 17 8 6 he had an interregnum of a few years, dur ing which he engaged in real estate speculations and iu the interest of canals and education, and of a more perfect union of the States, finally got together a. number of delegates, from, fi,vo States ouly, at his house at Mount Vernon, and there and at Alexandria, holding a sort of convention for the benefit of Kanawha, James ltiver and Potomac Canal Navigation, projects yet unreal ized, hp and his. friend, initiated the movement for the Constitution of ha United State-v He became President pt the Convention, and in .1787, pnly four, years after he resigned command of tjhp army, became virtually Presi dent, having, during all the interval exerted an influence superior to that of ttlp ti7fedaTO Congress. When the' Constitution wascoiirpJel(itJiiid he was j about to sign it, he said,, as a'naairwJiO has a right to say when the truth in volves a menace, that if yeiccted, that Constitution could only be cance led b)r b.lood. Then followed the singularly idle period of voting on the new Consti tution. New York forgot to hold an election. Congress called lor the 4th of March, If 89, did not get a quorum un til, late in April, and yet during all the time Washington was as good as Presi dent, a(d served out a term before ho commenced his formal Presidency. Then he went 011 and accepted two more terms, and finally stood aside to let other compatriots have their promo tion. Those who quote Washington so shrewdly should read his history. - He was a very willful man when the inter ests ot the country were at stake, and grasped power wherever ho found it, but never for self-advancement.
