May 3d, IS" (5, at 11 o'elock A. M.. to select six delegates to the Xatioti al Republican Convention, candidates tor judges of tlie supreme court iu the second third and flfUi judicial district?, for prose cuting attorneys for the several judicial dis tricts three presidential electors, and a candidate for representative in oongrea, and for the transaction of such otlter "busi ness as may come before the convention. It is recommended that primary and county conventions in the several counties be held as follows : Primary conventions on Wednesday, April 19th, and county conventions on Wednesday. April 26th, or at such other times as the county commit tees may appoint. The following is the apportionment of delegate in the said convention upon the basis of 'the Republican vote for representa tive in congress in 1875 : Baker 3 Benton 6 Clackamas C Linn 10 Marion 13 Multnomah 13 Polk 4 Tillamook 2 Union... 3 Umatilla 4 Wasco 3 Washington 4 Yamhill 8 Total .. 115 Clatsop 3 Columbia 1 Coos. 5 Ctury 2 Douglas 7 Grant . 3 Jackson 4 Josephine 2 Lake; 2 Lane 7 In making this call for a Republican State Convention, the State Central Com mittee realize the fact that too much impor tance cannot be attached to preliminary operations. This being a "government of the people, by tho people, for tlie people," the agents or officers of the government should be in accord with the people. Ac cording to the general accepted plan of selecting candidates, the first steps are ta ken in our primary, county ami State con ventions. These form the ground work of political organization upon which the wliole superstructure must stand or fall. If hon est men deire honest officials, is it asking -too much that tley lay aside for a day all -other business affaire aud devote the time necessary to select proper persons to attend county-and State conventions? In view of these considerations and of the important interests at stake we earnestly -appeal to all legal voters who are in sym pathy ".vith the principle ot tlie Republican party, regardless of personal likes and dis likes to rally at the primaries, and see to it that none but true men are entrusted with the business of preparing for the coming .political campaign : Select men who are not only true themselves in the broadest sense oi mat terra out men ot atscernmenr men who can and will choose wisely for the. .good of the people in defiance of "rings" nd "clique?." It is unneecessary at this time to reiterate "iu this call the principles ot the Republican party: its glorious record is still fresh in the memory ot an enlightened public ; it is sound upon all the great principles affect ing our national existence ; it is the party of progress and development ; it exposes corruption wherever found and inflicts pun ishment upon conspirators, tearful and sud den, without respect of person or position ; it favors the universal enlightenment of tb.3 people without trammel of creed or ism ; and its banner 13 found in the van leading on the hosts of reformers in all that tend to higher civilization and enlarged freedom.

There is a flood in the Mississippi I good, hearing perfect and memory as river. It is already thirty-five leet tonishine. What is perhaps equally above low-water mark, and higher than remarkable, she has always been anTn any rises ot late years. A rise of one 1 valid, and never, within tlie recojlection foot more will put it above the highest water known. ; in , ct.

The wheat had to be thrown on the market for immediate sale, which caused a rapid decline. SOMEHOW OR OTULEH. Life has a burden for every one's shoulder None may escape from its trouble and care; Miss it in youth, and 'twill when we're older, And fit us as dose as the garments we wear. Sorrow comes into our lives uninvited. Robbing our heart of its treasure of song; Lovers grow cold, and onr friendships are slighted, Yet somehow or other w worry along. K very-day toil is an every-day blessing. Though poverty's cottage and crnst we may share; Weak is the back on which burdens are pressing. But stout Is the heart that is strengthened by prayer. Somehow or other the pathway grows brighter J ust when we mourn there was none to befriend; Hope iu tlie heart mokes the burden seem lighter. And somehow or otlier we get to tlie end. The DUTerenee. Tlie nation Las been plundered to the extent of millions of dollar by dishon est Democratic officials, many of these officials now holding high place in the estimation of their party friend. Cora Tweed, with his $20,000,000 stolen from the tax-payers of New York, was an apt scholar of modern Democracy. Intrusted to the custody of a Demo cratic sheriff, who had enjoyed in other days the princely hospitality of this persecuted official, the Hot s disappear ed betweeu dark ami daylight months ago, and nothing has been heard from him since. It is believed by many that he i still in New York city, tho guest of his Democratic admirers. Had he been a Republican official lie would have been breaking stone at Sing-Sing, and the Democratic press would have been holding him up as a fair sample of Republican corruption. But as he was a Democratic leader his shortcomings are overlooked, and his crime scarcely mentioned by the Democratic press. Even the sheriff holds his position, and Governor Tilden nods consent. The great difference betweeu Democracy and Republicanism is just this: the for mer shields its official rascals, the latter punishes tlicm whenever found. There is not an instance on record where the Republican party shielded an official known to be dishonest. Impeachments. There have been only six impcach metit trials before the United States ge;;ate, and but two persons were con victed. The first case was that of Senator Blount, charged with treason in 1798, but there was no trial, the jurisdiction of the Senate being denied on the ground that a Senator was not I an officer of the Uuited States. Judge Pickering of New Hampshire was found guilty of drunkenness iu 1803, and re moved. Judge Humphreys of Ten nessee was impeached for treason early in the war, and convicted. The most celebrated trial, down to President Johnson's, was that of Judge Saraue' Chase of Maryland, who was impeached in 1804 for political partisanship in the trials of Fries and Calleuder for libel, five years before. Chase was a Feder alist, a ixl these men were virulent Demo time when tlie partisanship crats at a ot the press was vastly more bitter than it is now. The trial was tlie rrreat event of the day, but resulted in atspit- ri C.ha wan one ot the sirm nt the Declaration of Independence and a great, spirit, naviog once ordered a sheriff to summon a posse and take some rioters to jail, he was timidly answered that nobody would respond. "Summon me, then, and I'll take 'em," thundered the Judge.' Aaron Burr's trial, one of the few famous American State trials, was after the expiration of his term of Vice President, and before a jury on an indictment for. high trea-1 son, of which he was acquitted. f " 7.

TUU AJU THAT. A special Washington telegram dated April 7th says this : The sergeaut-at-arms of the Senate proceeded this evening to the hou -e of Belknap to serve on him the process issued by order of the Senate as a court of impeachment. Belknap was up stairs when the sergeant was aunounced; but he did not keep that functionary waiting long. Ife came into the draw ing room with a brink step, and with a entile on his face aud extended his band said : "IIow do you do, Mr. French r I suppose I know the object of your warrant. Well, I am very glad to see vou. Take a scat." French, before accepting this offer ot hoVpitality, reach ed down in his overcoat pocket and produced the formidable looking docu ment with which ho was entrusted. He then read the document, Belknap standing by, listening attentively. When the reading was concluded, Bel kap said, "I will respond at the time designated." Tlie ex-secretary was dis. posed to be very communicative, and exhibited a very striking evidence of a rapid recuperation from the depression attending the first shocK of his down fall. Be conversed freely on the subject ot the accusations against him, and whatever bis inner thoughts may have been, outwardly he evinced a determi nation - to brave the matter through if possible. lie remarked that now that he was on the defensive he was the target ot all manner ot attacks ; but bad no fears of his ultimate vindication. So far only one side of the matter had been given, but soon the other side would be heard. He iutimated the probability of his appearance in person before the Senate ; but this will not be determined definitely until after a full conference with hjs counsel. In reference to Senator Thurman, the great Democratic light, the same telegfam says, that : The civil service committee, investi gating tlie charges against Thurman, today investigated B. F. Cowart. He fee-tides that Isadora Blumenthal, col-' lector of tlie port f Cedar Keys, Florida, told him he paid Thurman $500 "blood money" for hi appoint ment as collector. Kending and Pond testified to being present when the above conversation took place between Cowart and Blumenthal, and confirmed the statement of Cowart. Geo. E. Fowler testified that Thurman said, a few days after his election, that it had cost over 56,000 clean cash to get elected, and he was going to have some of this money back before he started tor ashmgton. Thurman said an old fellow, meaning Simpson at Montinello, wants a cadetship for his son, and the old chap has got to pay me for it. Of course our Democratic cotempora- ries all over Oregon will hasten to un cork thiir vials of wrath against Demo cratic Senator Thurmau for his rascali ties, just as tliey hare done toward Gen. Belknap. It certainly makes no differ ence to your virtuous Democratic ink- slinger whether the criminal is a Republican or Democrat, each alike deserves coiKiemnauon ana eacn win receive it ! ! Won't tliese redhot Demo- cratic journals of Oregon "go tor7: Thurman! and won't he be kicked right out of the party ! - Democrats will not tolerate rascals or rascality at least iu the Republican party, and of coarse they will tolerate it less iu their owu ranks ! We shall see. We are coming again to the era of small things, finer lines and nicer dis tinctions, observes the Springfield Re publican.
