The Convention then adjourned. The people ot the Willamette Valley and Eastern Oregon demand an entrepot nearest the center of the valley, through which they can reach tide-water in the shorten time and at the lowest rates, with their " surplus produce. This point is Yaqnina Bay. By the Improvement of the bar at that point, a harbor can be made where the largest vessels may come with perfect safety at any time. Alt these points have been made time and again during the past year, and no one has ever dared an attempt at refutation. The people have asked for an appropriation to remove the obstruction at Yaquina bar, and their petition now lies before a Dem ocratic Congress. If this Congress grants the petition. It will bo gratefully remem bered by onr people; If it be refused.it will be held to a strict account for such refusal. Oregon has three Democratic representatives in Congress if through their earnest work the appropriation is secured, they will be entitled to the grate ful thanks of their constituents ; if they tail, through want of energy or lack of interest in the demands ot tills people, then let them look ' no more tor favors or honors at the hands of an outraged con stituency. Tftquioa Bajr. News comes from Washington that onr delegation is constantly shadowed by the agents of the Oregon Railway and Navi gation Company ; that efforts are being made to force a conclusion that the de mand tor an appropriation is confined to a few unimportant papers, and some small politicians. Now the facts are, and can be undeniable affirmed, the inhabitants of the Willamette Valley.comprising an area of agricultural territory, of sufficient im portance to induce the construction rf two lines of costly railroads, besides the expenditure of thousands of dollars in improving the Willamette river have afked In one voice the improvement of Yaquina Bar. The reasons are niimer ous for this demand and have repeatedly been the subject of earnest appeal, and it will not answer the interests of a large cl.i.s of property holders and fcix-paj'er.", wieldinir a political strength extremely dangerous to trifle with, tor the present Congress to accept or act upon the stories of persons employed dy a monop oly desiring to retain their grasp, much less make a meagre appropriation for a place of such importance as Yaquina Bay. A failure on the part of the prese'lt Dem ocratic Congress to meet this question fairly, squarely and honest! v will result disastrously, and fall heavil3 on the head ot the State ticket in the coming election. Cor. SUXesman, A church reform movement has been Inaugurated In New York, looking to the establishment ot an American Independent Church. Fathers Wood, Quinn and Broderick, formerly Catholic priests, are at the head of the movement, while It Is annonnced that priests all over tTie country have announced their readiness to abandon Romanism and become earnest laborers for the benefit of the poor in extending the true principles and practices of Chris tianity. Letters were read from priests in varlo'is parts of the country saying their hearts were In the movement. Com munications were presented from Meth odist, Baptist and Presbyterian Confer ences, In Baltimore, Philadelphia and New Jersey, lieartily endorsing the movement. The bulk ' ot the evidence before the Exodus Committee seems to be that the negro exodua was caused by Insecurity ot life and property.dlsfranchlsement, threats, etc. Although Intimidated against leav ing, it Is believed tlie exodus Is in r cas ing. So it would seem the shot-gun policy of the South against the negroes Is proving moie injurious to the- country than it the "Radical " President" : had filled the country with soldiers to protect the colored man. If the country is left to grow to weed, the South has no one to blame but the South. Ihe postal attack on Wells Fargo A Co. is most unwarranted, unnecessary, and a damaging Ii ferf;rence with the public and private convenience of a vast section of the Union. The motive for such an attack on a system that has proven in the past years so great a convenience and productive of such Incalculable benefit, and against which we have yet to hear a word of com plaint uttered by tliose conversant with it. Is incomprehensible to the average West ern man. Key-op, and try something else for a boom. " ' ' Mr. Whitaker seems to have the inside track for the Democratic nomination for Congress. Well, we could not desire an easier man te beat. Our candidate, Hon M. C. George, witl beat bim twenty-five hundred votes with all the ease imaginable, It would be an exceedingly soft thing for Mr. George. Conklkig says he will not be in tho way of Grant.' nominKtloa. Tbi to very kind efCeskHng. We said some weeks ago that Hon E. B. Washburne was as likely to be the nomi nee of the Republican party for the Pres idency as any man named, and that bo had many more chances for such nomina tion than U. S. Grant. And nil the Indi cations so far, to us at least, are still in favor of Washburne. We never for. a moment believed that Grant' desired the nomination, or that he would accept it tendered unless the Convention nomina ted him by acclamation, no other candi date being nominated, and such a condi tion ot tilings was next to impossible. Late dates state that China ts anxious for a fight with Russia, and has already made inroads into iter territory. Russia seems appalled at the sudden energy anil Valorous display of a people whose terri tory has heretofore been deemed natural prey. Gattling guns are being introduced into tho defences ot Shanghai, volunteers armed and drilled, and the necessary steps taken for the prosecution ot successful war. In fact China seems to bo getting "ou tlier ear," and Russia must go slow. . Indiana is solid for Blaine, and promi nent Republicans of that State declare that with Blaine, Washburne, .Edmunds, or Windom, as the Presidential candidate, Indiana will elect a U. S. Senator to suc ceed Mc Donald ; but if Grant is the nom inee, they have no hope of such an event. We still feel confident that Grant will not accept a nomination, but no refusal, other than lie has already made, will be made by I t! - . 1 1 1 1 1 i uy mm uuui nc una b iioiiiiuniion lo re- fuse. The conduct of two men in Washington form striking antithesis. One is extreme ly frensitive, the other extremely callous to considerations of good taste J one is a Re publican bnt it Is probably better to drop the antithetical figure right here. John B. Hawley, Assistant Secretary of the Treas ury, has handed in Lis resignation because he is a candidate for the' nomination ot Governor of Illinois. J. G. Carlisle, Dem ocratic Representative from Kentucky, is counsel for one of the lotteries of his state although a bill is pending before the IIoue to forbid lottery matter passing through the mails. . A San Francisco physician in his lectur es against cremation, asserts that if this plan of disposing of the dead becomes universal, medical colleges will be com pelled to slitit up, and medical science will relapse into ancient Ignorance. This would be a horrible "tate of fix,' certain ly. But with the great body of mankind this assertion of the son of Esculaplus will prove a strong argument In favor of cremation. Try some other argument. Late accounts from Russia say that the Emperor no longer wears a coftt of mail, hut his carriages are plated with iron, and such Is the mysterious secrecy with which he is surrounded that even the most trust ed policemen are Ignorant halt an hotir beforehand in what direction he is going. The cook is watched at his work by two speeial employes, and the kitchen door is guarded by two sentinels. The viands are tasted by two experts, and offered only to the Czar when they are convinced that no poison is lurking in them. Fond as he is of a good cigar, lie is obliged, from similar motives of prudence, to forego the pleas ure of smoking. Notwithstanding the fact that a law was en.icted in Brazil in the year 1831 prohib- itlng slavery, one of the principal Journals ot Rid Janeiro publishes an advertisement of the ptlblic sale of sixty Africans to take place at Valencia. The press of Rio have given the matter special publicity, and the people freely discuss this clear infraction of the law, but the authorities are entirely oblivious to the whole matter. It would see m that the government h id not been particular in enforcing the slave trade law since its enactment, tor Although there have no public sales, the private traffic and cap tivity ot Africans has existed and still ex ists. tu a late Issue the California Independent says that sand-loter Kearney, tu making his cru'ade against law and order, is only after the double eagles, and he has already accumulated $75,000, and still has a large monthly income from Flood and other monopolists. ; In reducing the public debt since, the war and placing the credit ot the Govern ment on a footiiig with the. very best gov ernments on the face of the earth, the Re' publican party has eclipsed any similar foats of statesmanship in Ihe history . of tho world.
