STATE RIGHTS DEMOCRAT. SATIUDW, OCTOBER 11. 1865. THE EXIUA SESSION. (low Gibbshas elected to call an extra ppssion of the Legislature, and fixed the 5th day of December ensuing as the pe riod for that nody to convene. His Ex cellency has been cogitating upon this matter for months, and evidently has halted between opposing opinions as to either the propriety- or policy of the step "Whether it has been from self-conviction or outside pressure that he at length re solves in favor of the measure, we cannot be expected to know. But he has issued his official proclamation for the legisla tors to assemble. He docs not say for what express purpose he calls that body together in special session ; he simply de clares "tliat measures highly importan to the interests of the State and Xatiou wfmr ih& action of tlm Legislature at aneavtier prmH rr:A) i n.-.-.s nl session." We do not propose to be hypercritical upon the peculiar arrange ment of the Governor's language, but we would respectfully desire to be informed Iiow happened it that he placed the "State" .before the "Nation," in his Proclamation? The Governor belongs to "the party whieh declares that to the Federal 'crovernment, or " Nation," as they prefer erroneously to call it, every citizen of our State owes ' paramount allegiance." Then why put the cart before the horse the " State" before the "Nation?" When the question whether there should be a called session was first agitated, only one cause was alleged for its necessity that of passing the proposed amendment to the Constitution for the total abolition of slavery in alt" ofthe United States. There was no mention made of the neces sity of a special session for any mere State purpose whatever. Yet now it seems the State's necessity is paramount and the Nation's necessity secondary in Importance. What has transpired with m the past six or eight months which has created this pressing State necessity, and rendered legislation for the State of paramount importance to legislation upon ihe proposed amendment? There has been no turmoil in the State, no appre hensions of any ; there has been no oppo sition to'any of the laws, no fear of any; .there has. been no alarming cause precipi tated upen the State, or in any portion of ii- In short, in every aspect and in every particular, things have gone along with more harmony and less discord than at any previous time since this present Ad ministration has been in power. The vexed questions which did for a year or two-disturb communities and the people with that right. An Abolition Legisla ture at a regular session, passed an infa- moiw test oath Act. democrats repudi ated and disregarded that; they will treat with far less courtesy or considera tion an Act to disfranchise hundreds of their fellow-citizens from the sacred 1 ice man's right of voting. If the Governor wants to call an extra session, however, for the purpose of iui nieiliatelv renolin- the odious and iutol- irint Sim il.iv law of wimnc: out ol ex istent the whole of the present abomina ble Code, and performing other equally necessarv aud wholesome legislation, me it i? -.!.....

The payment of taxes in gold and silver, the military tax, and other disputed subjects have been com posed and disputation upon - or non-conformity to thein is no longer heard. Then "why, we ask again, does the' Governor .mention that highly important State in terests require an extra session ? Some thing must have occurred within the past few months to cause the Governor to bc Lieve that State necessity required this extra session would it not have been gracious in him to have told the people briefly what this pause is ? The Abolition organs of the State have several times made allusion to the fact that an '-unusual number of emigrants were coming into Oregon this year, and stated that a very large proportion of them were Democrats. They stated fur ther that many of these emigrants were from Missouri, and hence argued that they were secessionists and rebels, and therefore ought not to be permitted to vote in Oregon next June, notwithstand ing our State Constitution gives them the right so to do. The same organs lave i a connection with this subject pro posed that a law be enacted which would inhibit these Missouri emigrants from the right of suffrage. If it is to have an Act passed which shall provide that the immigrants, or any portion of them, of this year's advent to the State shall not be permitted to vote ia June next, if they in all respects con form to the requirements of the State Constitution, that Gov. Gribbs has called m extra session, we can respectfully .but very emphatically assure him, his and the Legislature's labors in that particular will be vain, idle, worse than useless for he and they will cause trouble to al without the slightest chance Ot effecting what is proposed. ; y.'.i . i The Constitution prescribes and estab lishes the elective franchise. "Any and all who come within the purview of its ' provisions have a right to vote, and nei ther the Legislature nor any , other au- thftnty except the people themselves, m the mode and manner prescribed by the State Constitution, can alter, amend or abolish any of the provisions already es tablished. A people may obey an Act ef the Legislature generally believed ' to he unconstitutional, until the proper offi cial declaration that it actually is so is pro nounced. " But we know that we utter no idle words when we sav and we"wish the Governor and -Legislators to notice . what we say that the Democracv of Or egon will not suffer these immigrants from Missouri or elsewhere, to be de prived of their votes in the next State flection, if the Constitution invests the IViHgraceftil Trickery. Acting Gov. Elwood Evans, of Wash ington ; Territory, has lately committed most disgraceful piece of official trickery, It ought in fact be termed official rogue ry. It occurs in his proclamation of the result of the last Territorial election, in resard to the election of the Councilman for the District of Walla Walla, in whic he proclaims that the Abolition cand date, Anderson Cox, is chosen over Fran P. Dugan, Esq., the Democratic can didate. The facts, as we derive them from of ficial and authentic sources, are as fo' lows: The counties of Walla Walla and Skamania were by a former Legislature erected into a Council District, but the last Legislature wiped out of existence the county of Skamania, leaving Wal Walla alone the District. The Act di not contemplate the non-existence of Ska mania, however, in the eusuing Territori al election, for the Act of the previous Legislature specially provided for the rep resentation of that tract or county dow to 1800, and this part of the former act1 was not repealed nor nullified by the sub sequent Legislature. The returns of the election gave Mr. Dugan in the whole District, fifty-six majority. But the coun ty of Walla Walla cast a majority of five against him, and in favor of his Abolition competor. In order to deprive Mr. Dugan of his seat, to which he was regularly elected by the votes of the District,, and to invest the Abolition candidate with Couneil hon ors, Gov. Evans, in his proclamation of WHO ARK THE Sil'LLlFIEKS? The Abolitiouists havo continually rarged upon the Democracy that they are nuUiners; that their doctrine of State Bights recognizes the right of a State to nullify the laws of Congress, and. lercfore, that that doctrine is a " treas onable heresy.". They point to the only instance in the whole history of the coun try where the people of auj State who professed to belong to the Democratic mrty nullified or atlempted to nullify an Act of the Federal Congress, and thence abor, and distort the facts, to. show that the Democratic party is in favor of nulli fication. Now, what are the facts in relation to the nullification of South Carolina in 1831-2 ? That State was not then actu ally a Democratic State. Gen. Jackson was President of the United States. II was a Democrat. Tho Administration was Democratic. South Carolina and President Jackson stood in hostile atti tude towards each other. - The Demo cratic Administraticm:-r nf tk Democratic States opposed the action and the argument of South Caroliua in regard to nullification. And, in th election for President in 1832 South Carolina cast her full number of electora votes against Andrew Jackson, the Demo cratic candidate for the Presidency Then how, with these facts before them, can the Abolitionists have the effrontery and injustice to stigmatize the Demo cratic party as the party of nullification ? But let us turn from the Democratic record aud examine into (that of the party in opposition Federalists in early years, but now Abolitionists. In the Adminis- TlII- DAILY MAIL UESlTMED. Lnst Wcdncalay morning, Mr. D. W. Wakefield, the accommodating telegraphic operator at thig place, brought to us the very welcome iitelligcnco that the Daily Overland Mail had been restored to Ore gon, to commence at once. Iu common with -our felloy-citizcns, we have since gladly realized the correctness of his report. Tho California Stage Company, so the telegraph inlbnus us, have concluded to again take the contract at $225,000 per annum, for the lervice. We are glad they are to be the carriers. That they arc is sufficient guarantee that the service will be well performed, as they have so exce lently performed it in the past. And here, it is bui justly duo the drivers, Messrs. WellerDrew and Dunn, who have during the mal suspension so kindly and generously taken our packages from here to poiuts along the route, to tender them our warm thanks for this service. It was an accommodation both to us and our sub scribers, for without this assistance we xuuld not have forwarded our papers out side of the ctrr,ty nor to Scio, Lebanon Brownsville and Pine, in the county. In future the mails will be open to us. yet we shall not forget these past kindly acts. During the period of suspension it may have happened that some of our subscri bers in various parts of the State avc no received the numbers regularly. 1? so we much regret it, but we wish to assure them wc havo taken every means possible or practicable to serve theni. If papers have cen lost, or at least not received, there fore, the fault rests rot with us. But henceforward we apprctend no troubles on on this score The resumption of the mail tration of John Adams they set the ex it J ample of nullifying the Constitution by the enactment of the Alien and Sedition laws. During the Administration of Thomas Jefferson Massachusetts nullified and declared the Federal Embargo Act unconstitutional. In the Administration of James Madison, Connecticut, Massa chusetts and Vermont, nullified the Acts of Congress pertaining to the enlistment of troops, aud to the conduct of the war. Again, the eleven States o'f Maine, Sew Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Isl and, Connecticut, New York, New Jer- will be a guarantee against the recurrence of such evils. Demoerafj lu Ohio. The Ohio Democratic State Convention met at Columbus, Aug. 24th, and after a most harmonious session put forth a clear, bold State Rights jJatform, and a good ticket, as follows : Fir Governor, George W. Morgau ; Lieut. Governor, William Lang; Supreme JuJge, P. Van Trump; Treasurer, Geo. Spence; Attorney Gen eral, D. M. Yilon ; School Commissiou- REPUMATIOW. Horace Greeley, who is above all other men the popular leader and thief expo nent of Abolitionism, has recently come out in advocacy of a scheme which is no- thing short ot a partial repudiation oi uiej gigantic Federal debt. He proposes Unit the Government shall call in all of (he various ihtecest-drawingbonds the seven thirties and five-twenties and issue in ieu of them bonds which shall draw but four per cent. per"aunum. In other words, he proposes that the man who has purchased Government bonds to the amouut of 1,000, on the faith of the pledge of the Government to pay him either seventy-three dollars or fifty-two dollars per annum, shall receive but forty dollars per annum interest on his money. This would not only impose a loss of cither thirty-three or twelve dollars per auuum of interest money on the bond holder, but cause him further loss by the great depre ciation in tho market price of the bond it self. It is a virtual repudiation of about from twenty to forty per cent, of the Fed eral debt, and the principle involved in the proposition is simply the rlgtt af the Government to repudiate the whole debt at any moment Contrress shall see fit. If the Government has a right to reduce the rate of interest it has pledged itself to pay on its own debt, it has the right, by the same course of reasoning, to reduce the principal, or to repudiate the debt iu toto. Had a Democratic organ proposed what the Tribune has, the whole Abolition party of the country would have joined in the wild cry against it, and doubtless the Gov ernment would have punished it by a sup pression, and sent its editor to a Federal prisou. But it is Horace Greeley, tho Ag amemnon of the Abolition party, who pro poses tho thing, and. consequently, to Abolition minds, it is a subject well worthy of deliberation. That it will not prevail, we are certain, for the reason that the rich factory lords of New England, the merchant princes aud great capitalists of Boston and New Xork and .Tuiladelphia, hold the bulk of TELEGRAPHIC.

There is now the law of Congress of 1793 on the same u division ihe Long ticket having been subject, by solemn action of their State withdrawn, and the whole Democracy of entirely, and recognizes only the vote of the remainder of the District. If the Governor had followed this rule in respect to the election of other Councilmen, or of Representatives, credit might be given him for honest error, for a mistaken or erroneous interpretation of the law and his own official duty. But he did not. For instance, in the same proclamation he recognizes the county of Skamania and counts its vote in the election of Faras- worth, an Abolitionist, to the Council, over Johns, a Democrat. So does he recog nize and count the vote of Skamania in the election of Representative Van Sycklc ; in the election of the Joint Representative for Clickitat and Skamania, and in the of ficial vote of the Territory for Delegate to Congress. Now, is it not remarkable that the Gov ernor connts in the county and vote of Skamania in three other distinct cases, and rejects the vote and ignores the coun ty in the single case of Dugan, to elect Cox ? If it were just, lawful and proper to reject the vote, and ignore the existence of the county in the case of Dugan vs. Cox, it would fiave been equally so in all the other cases. There is no oscape from these conclusions. In either view of the cases presented ihe action of Gov. Evans appears most reprehensible or disgraceful. Yet we do not wonder at bis action. It is the theory and has long been tho prac tice of Abolitionists to adopt any and all means, no matter how unconstitutional, unlawful, unjust, disgraceful or rascally, so that their ends were acomplbhed, and 1 1 .1. - . -T. particularly in tne maueroi elections, it is,notorious "that Marshal fame torged the vote of Laramie, where an election was really never held, to elect Governor Wallace of Idaho lerntory as Delegate to Congress, It is equally notorious that in elections declared in favor of the Aboli tionists in Maryland, Kentucky, Indiana, Missouri, and other States, the result was obtained by all . manner of frauds, forg eries, outrages and excuses. " But we can call to mind no instance in which a par allel is offered, for shameless discrimina tion and inconsistency, to this in point, DerDetrated by Gov. Evans. No one but a man totally lost to honor, to the sense of justice, fairness and reason, would have decided as he did in the Territorial elec tions cited 3Ir. Dugan ought to pres ent the ease before the Council, and de mand t the hands of that body, the rights which Gov. Evans attempts to di vest him of. If there be a spark of hon or or justice in that body, tie members will declare him the duly elected Council- man. and at once oust ms competitor iruw the seat into which Uov.
