McAlphiti, State Engineer of the State of New Yorkwe'Jearn that tho aver. ago cost of transportation by railroad, U thirteen milk per ton ; per mile. From a table of the freight charges on the Willamettp , river,;: published November 1, 1800, we learn that the averago charge on this river is one hundred and seventy mills per ton jnr mile; or a fraetion over thirteen times as much as the avcracre chargo by railroads. One of the great drawbacks to the prosperity of this couutry is the high cost of transportation. This not on ly strikes primarily at the producer, the farmer and his farm, and keeps both poor, but their losses are reflect ed upon every branch of industry. The farmer cannot be prosperous where one-third of the value of his crops must go to those who carry it to market. A railroad, or railroads through the Willamette Valley would always secure him transportation, at the proper season, and at living, fair rates, by producing competition with the boats. In connection with this subject we mention that, a few days ago, consid. erable excitement was awakened in Oregon City by the launch of the Lewhton, in the basin, above the falls, belonging to the P. T. Company. It seems that this Company threw every obstacle possible in the way of the op position line. They carried their spite so far as to discharge," from. their cm- ploy, certain men for aiding in, the launch of the Lowiston. The P. T. Company do not like the prospect of having their pockets depleted by op position. They would Ijke to contin ue to charge thirteen times as. much as the average charjre bv railroad. The Oregon City Enterjmsc says that the Lcwiston has safely pawd through all the dangers of the Snake, Columbia and Willamette rivers, from Lcwiston, Idaho, to Canemah mak- mg the mo.st remarkable steamboat trip, perhaps, on record anywhere, in any country, "and now that sh is here, we heartily wish her abundant success.

Did not Accept. -The proposition made by the Albany democratic Club to meet the Grant Club onco a month and debate pending political issues, was indefinitely postponed by the lat ter body last Saturday evening. This refusal of the Radicals to debate, is proof- positive-5 to"oumind;eithur that they .have no speakers ,wJio;n they dare pit against Bemocrallotpeacrs; or they arc afraid to lot their men hear the truth. "While thy have, in their ranks men of such transcendant ora torical ability as Mr. ltussell, Mr. Dal ton, Dr. Rice, Mr. Pickett and Judge Powell, it cannot bo said that they have no speakers able to cope with any Democratic speakers who may be set apart for that purpose. Jlcneethe conclusion' is Irresistible and inevita ble that they arc unwilling to let their rank and file hear tho truth, as pro mulgated by the Democracy. The Portland Uclluti.v.

But still the In dians about the Station became more and more excited from day to day and finally took their women and effects to the moun tains and the day before Mr. Hinman's return, several painted, naked Cayuse showed themselves in the vicinity of the Station. It is a question of vital importance to American Protestants, not of that day on ly, but of the present day, why that Frenchman was ordered not to let the Americans at the Dalles know their dan ger? Why he was threatened with that most fearful of all punishments, more than fines or imprisonment, to deter him from telling them ? Why did not Mr. McBcan or the priests write by that mes senger to the Dalles, when they knew a party of the murderers was soon to start to kill them ? Why was tho Frenchman told to obtain Mr. llioman to go on with him if possible, thus leaving bis family moro exposed? J hat Vancouver was not concerned in this, appears from the surprise of Mr. Douglas. Considering the connection of Walla Walla with the II . D. Co., it was natural, bat not hon est, that Mr. Douglas should leave the declared doom of the Americans at the Dalles, out of Mr. McJJean's letter, when he transcribed it for Gov. Abernethy.
