..MARCH 3, 1871. ' THE 'SEDUCES AND HIS VICTIM. Elswliere we publish a correspond ( cnce irom Jaetson county, containing ? an account of one of the most infamoua ' transactions on record. It is a case "'peculiarly aggravating, and one which merits the early and prompt action of the courts of that Bcction, and we be lieve the sterling integrity of that lo cality will not permit the guilty fiend to go unwhipt of justice. A careful perusal of the letters will satisfy the reader that there can be no doubt of their truth; and if any proofs were want ing, events which , have transpired isubeequent to the date of the letters "would sufficiently demonstrate their correctness. A telegram from Jack sonville under date of the 25th ultimo, '.(last Saturday,) states that on that day a shooting affray occurred on the main street of that town, between Valen tine S. Rolls and James D. Far. in which neither of the parties received .serious iniurv. It seems that Rolls approached Fay and accused him of the seduction of ms daughter, and told him that one of them nwst die. IWWJ ia w Rolls firing first, the ball striking the guard of Fay's pistol atd preventing its use. Uolls fared three shots, one of which passed through the pocket book in the breast pocket of JFay's coat, lodging against a rib, but doing no injury. After the shooting. Rolls mounted his horso quietly and rode "Jbome. We learn from private sources that the people of Jacksonville are highly incensed against the base seducer, and that the most rigid investigation will be entered into so as to bring him to an, account for his villainous "conduct. J3ut, if the courts of the . land shall .fail to vindicate outraged humanity And punish the offender, let all decent peopl so treat the inhuman monster as to drive him from their midst and Cause him to hide his base carcass in ome faraway clime, or in some sink of iniquity in our larger cities where his iind can eke out a miserable subsist nce for their vile services and gloat their foul passions without doing vio lence to publie decency and private virtue. " . . Ad that poor, unhappy girl! What .heart so cold but could bleed for her woes? What eye so tearless but could weep for her wrongs? What soul so ungenerous but could mourn for her sorrows? Thus to have ' her pure neart won by the honeyed words of -the lascivious wretch until he gained her person for the basest purpose and jobbed her of that brightest jewel in -the maiden's casket her Tirtue! and -men to be driven by hr shame to a stable, and there, among; the "beast3, to endure alone the cutting pangs of virgin maternity; and then, wrapping the offspring cf her sh i n her scanty robes, flee like Hagar of old to die in the wilderness. whpr he wasfouad, crouched down under the waving, moaning winter trees that were singing a sad requiam over her -unhappy fate, with the efaai blasts of -wind piercing her scanty covering and slowly freezing the life mf of her suf fering body The verv aiiirela lMn. ing over the battlements of heaven, must have turned Aside and went af. the heart-rending sight, and the fallen maiden s safierings must ' have' then won a lorgirmg sigh from the ' very throne of the Son nf t i '" " Shall we not cast the veil of 'charity auu even oi owivion ove? her down fall, and Jopk u'rxm W rut W basely betrayed to commit a sin by her Vile master and pretended lover, than m one who" willingly andgladly court ed such a sad and sorrowful fite? -Heaven knows, she was more sinned Against than sinning, and merits the most piteous sympathy of every man And woman having a spark of charity iheir natures. , " ' ' And we trust her friends will deal with her- gently, and, by kind words and tender services, bind np her bro ken heart and make her feel less keen ly her great wrongs and sorrowful eutterings.

An exchange illustrates the effect of the protective system upon American industries by pointing to the great Novelty Works in New York. These works employed from 1,500 td 2,500 hands. They were . engaged in build ing marine engines. To-day may be seen over the door of this once active and flourishing establishment the Bign "To let."- Here is a sad commentary upon the unwise legislation of Con gress, that is not only prostrating trade, but driving our mechanics from their workshops. Is it not strange that with such evidences of the disas trous effect of the high tariff system upon trade and manufactures that it is permitted to stand. . In no other country upon the face of .the earth. and with no other people, could laws prevail that in their operation prove so fatal to the general prosperity and welfare. The time has long since ar rived when the ruinous effect of pro tection upon the whole country was made patent to the people of the Uni ted States, and yet the policy with its attendant evil controls the legislation of Congress and is master of the Gov ernment. It is useless to ask how long this order of things will continue So long s the radical party, whose leaders are responsible lor banding the government over to a system which is thus crippling every business inter est in the land, is allowed to direct af fairs in the legislative halls of the ca tion, just so long may we expect to wit ness the march of decay in both our commerce .md manufactures. ' A few years more o "protection," such as radical legislation ho? afforded to the mechanics and traders of the United States, and it wi.U be a matter of no surprise to see over our factories, workshops and business houses the significant words "To let' THE VICTOB'S TERMS 0T PEi.CE, DisTiatches of the 27th tilt, state thh.t articles for peace have been signed be tween the French and German Govern; merits. But such heartless, cruel, re lentless terms as are exacted by Iiln marek from pour France Is nufliclent to astonish the whole world. The French are compelled to relinquish to Germany Alsace and Mttz, and pay a war indem nity of one hundred million of dollars! France Is given- three years to pay this unheard of demand in, and the Fruiwian soldiery are to remain in the French fortresses until the whole exaction in cancelled. This act will enstamp the Prussian Government as the most un generous of this enlightened age, and onjrht to heap upon her ruler the exe cration of the whole civilized world. ' Appoixtmemts. Tho fpllowing ap pointments have been made by His Excellency the Governor, during the past week: James BNewby, Com missioner of Deeds for Oregon, San Francisco; Dr. J. A. Chapman; Port land, Surgeon General on the Staff of the Commander-in-Chief with rank of Colonel; H. C Paige of Umatilla, Win. Thompson of Rosebnrg, Joseph Teal of Portland, and T. II. Cann of Salem, Aids-de-Camp on the Staff of the Commander-in-Chief with rank of Lieutenant Colonel; ' N. L. Butler, Judge Advocate, with rank of Colonel, and John F. Miller, Major General of the Oregon State Militia. It is an interesting fact that the late Republican State Convention of New Hampshire, adopted among the eight een resolutions of its platform a vigor ous declaration in "favor of applying the Jeffersonian test of honesty and capacity to the ' choice and appoint ment of all officers in the civil service." This is a blow directly at the Adminis tration of President Grant, and espe cially at his system of appointing to office those who have given him pres ents, as well, as his own relatives and the relatives of his relatives, to the thousandth degree of consanguinity. , The Pubushebs' Cosvehtios, a call for which will be found elsewhere, was set for the 23rd of June, because that is the time at which the Masonic Grand Lodge will be in session at Salem, and it is presumed that many newspaper men will be present on that occasion. It is confidently, hoped that every newspaper in Oregon, as well as those in Washington Territory, will be rep resented. ; " Bevels, the nigger Senator from Mississippi, goes out of office to-morrow.

What we saw at salemV J' Last Saturday morning wo arose with the lark (6 guratively speaking, "for (hors renlly weren't any larks foolish enough to git up on ucn tigly morning as that km,) and took the 1 o'clock train for tho Capital. . While going down on the oars we were surprised nt uje great improvetaent in the road since lait wo had ponied over It.

Well, In due time the brakenman thrust bii bead Into the car and ihouted out 'Atasr' But when we stepped upon the platform of the dapot, we found no Salem tburo, and had to pay a baekman fifty cents more to gei to Salem, which we regard as a great nuisanoe (not Saloin, but the flftv-oent buatneas). ' At the Cheineketa we were received by a placid smile and a gentle earees of the band by Mr Cutting, the landlord, and made Immensely ey in the luxurious rooms of that palatial manion We observed general business languor about the capital and beard many complaints of dull times, wbioh appeared to u In great oontrast with our own city, where wo never saw bunlnen so brisk and money so plentiful at a parallel season of the year as now. Salem is a beautiful city has wldo streets, magnificent buildings, and maoy enterprising, country to back np its interests that Albany pos erse, and will therefore eventually be eclipsed by our "(Jem of the Valley." TBI rVBLIC PBISTIMO While in Salem we performed the work of meas uring the public printing performed by Hon. T Patterson, State 1'riutcr, ordered by the last se sion of the Legislature, and take pleasure in stat ing that the work was never performed bolter and, in point of fact, in many renpeete But as well by any previous Printer. The journals of the latt Legislature aro extremely voluminous, making nearly thirteen hundred pages, or at least twice as uiuoh as those of lSCi. The taws and memorials of 1870 make a volume of 3S0 liases, beius 63 pages more than those of 1808. The entire work 's printed on influitely better paper than was ever before used and in manner that is a bigtt com pliment to the workmen employed. Yet the cott of the entire work, wiib an addition of at least one-third more than was done by McPberson iu 186S, was lust about the saine as was paid that .function ry. 4 OVO VO STATS OfflCIALS.

A meetinsr of the farmer of Sura- mcrville precinct, Union county, wan held on tho 2d of February, for the purpose of taking meftsuros to protect their honioflteadaagiiinHt land-jumpers. hey declared as follows: Vfnr.nr.Mi. curtain individuals havo, in utter isregsrd of farmer filiairs. and wholly Ignoring that respect due to prior elaimsnts and actus! settlers as sot forth by tlie ltcjjluter of the band Office as his Instructions from tbs Board of Land Commiloners, have proeoled to enter upon lands slrondy occupied and Improved.

Tho powition here taken by the bona Me BfttlcrH of Union county is entire y correct and proper.

When the HiirvevH were extend r aak ' od, tlw State landa wore very largely located in that part of the State, and in many inHtanccs where Htttlera were claiming as pre-emptions under tho United States, they were induced to .a J w . e give up their claims and nave tneir tanuii inciuueu in ino nuim neiecuonti, bciriff induced to believe that they could more readily obtain title from the btato than from the United states, and at tho same price. After the btate lands in JuiKU-rn Uregon were Ktlcctlfd by Governor Gibbs, nettlers generally entered upon them and made their homes, and at great cost placed valuable improvements on them, under the impresti'ion from pos itive ansuranccH ly the then ntate au tonties that tht-y would Boon have their titles. During the Administra tion of Gov. Gibbs nothing was done to Kfcure tho insurance of titles to the tst-ttlfrs. During Woods' entire ad ministration of State affairs, all his acts tended only to confusion m laud nntttrs. as well ai even thing else, To avoid labor .himself, for which he had no capacity, if inclined to work it a j! tears that he (suggested to the settlers in Kasttrn Ort-gon, fif they jo and main Ifo ir gpjtliea'iom for State ImihU to the LmUU blares I And (JJiee at Jji Grande, and thai nuch ajqAiadwn would be nood. Ibe farmers eouse queiitly applied to tho United States Iand Ufiico Jur their btate lands.

Tho former Board refused to do its-duty because of want of clerical aid, and for other frivolous excuses. But the present Board are working under the law a3 it stood before they came in, and are doing most active duty with no more clerical assistance than was had by the Radical Board. "What then is the sense in the Radical out cry that Democratic legislatures : and Democratic officers have defrauded and ruined the honest settlers of East ern Orgon? "Oh! the swamp load act!" Let us inform the ignorant Radical editors that tho swamp land act has nothing whatever to dp with the difficulties . of Eastern Oregon. The trouble grows out of swindles perpetrated during Radical times up on the settlers there by the United Land Office.
