oiuvtaiv aTRIDAT MAT . 1871. a question or poucr. A galvanized Republican who calls Limeelf a Democrat, and vho ia a resident of Linn county, has sug gested to us that we are going: too far ia pronouncing against all the Xladical amendments to the Consti- wuon, u oj wen a course ire will drive the ConserratiTe Demo crats away from the party! Now we do not desire to hurt anybody's feel ings, nor tread on any one's eorns;- but we believe that a man's politics ought to be a part of his religion, and that he should be willing to face the music at all times. We consci entiously and truly belisTe that every amendment or change that has been effected in the Constitution in the ' past ten years was secured through force and fraud and not by a free ex ercise of the people's will through the only legitimate arbiter of a Re publican government,' the ballot; and ' that the disgraceful and unwarranted .means which secured their adoption mast eventually cover their aiders. abetters and apologists with shame and ignominy. ;' XUdicala and timid Democrats call them dead issues. . If they are, .they were foully murdered, and the perpetrators of . the horrid deed should be brought to justice and summary punishment. "We have no desire to gain a repu tation for being radical or "red-hot" in our political fulminations, but we believe in being in earnest in bat tling aganist every form of tyranny; fighting down every measure of cor- raption; standing boldly up in de fense of the rights of the sovereign States against Federal interference and giving our feeble aid in preserv ing the liberties of the people against Radical oppression. ' We would take special pride in being numbered among those who are foes to tyranny and usurpation and friends of the over-taxed, over-legislated and over-awed people. The Oregonian charges us with standing on the same platform and . endorsing the same priciples enunci ated by JefT. Davis a few weeks ago. We don't remember what Jeff. Davis said at Selma, nor do we caie. If he said that the Radical legislation of Congress in regard to the Con atitaiaon was villainous and fraudu lentthat the question of those amendments was cot a "dead issue" that the rights of States had been violated and ignored that the liber ties of the people of ten States had been outraged, abrogated and tram pled under the lees of armed van dals, stationed among them for polit ical effect, and that the towns and cities ox the aoutn were being con verted into military garrisons to force Grant upon the nation for another Presidential term then he uttered the truth, and it was none the less a solemn truth because it fell from the lips of Jeff. Davis. If he said that . it was the noble mission of the Democratic party to bring this niggerized government back to the pure white standard es tablished for it by the fathers and to obrogate and annul all the black amendments which have been forci bly, unlawfully, and fraudulently injected into the Constitution by Radical Manipulations then he nanciated a rreat fact and one which the fature will surely, vindi cate and establish. The Oregonian need not worry itself into a night sweat and lose sleep in a vain attempt to rush Jeff. Davis or anr other Democrat into the political arena; but it will con serve its own interests and the inter ests of its party by devoting its em inent abilities and transcendant talents to allaying the disturbances and differ ences in its own ranks which cow threaten to divide and destroy the Radical fabric. When the time ar rives the Democracy with Senator Hendricks, or . some other equally able and pure statesman, mounted on a platif orm of staunch, true, honest, white principles will enter the are na in behalf of the people and con iatational liberty, and the victory will be ours. lsoux Policy. The Corvallis (7o tdle says that Gen. Palmer, who has assumed the duties of Agent for the Siletz Indian Reservation ; Vin tends to carry out President Grant's policy in regard to Christianizing as well as civilizing the poor Indian." ' Grant's policy of ."Christianizing and civiliz ing" the Indians while he rem ained on this coast is regarded among de cent and refined people as rather a revolting one, but it may suit General Palmer's high-toned (?) ideas to a dot.

Does, foe D BI32X OLD TIMES EST COJTGRESS. a exsaacxra. sexss. , . There was a most disgraceful scene in the House a few days before Con gress adjourned, in which General Butler and Gov. Swarm were the participants, and in which they called each other about all the names in the vocabulary. It commenced by But ler's reference to Swann as a know- nothing, and the latter's relating that Butler was not reponsible or truth' f ul in anything he said in political or social life. - He fruther charged But ler, while commanding in Baltimore during the war, with being drunk three days, with intimidating wo men and - children, and illustrating his debauchery in the vilest manner. Butler said that it was false; that he was sufficient to bring Swann and all the other rebels in Ihe city on their knees before him. The Republican side applauded this. ; Swann testi- tified to his own record as an official and boasted that, unlike Butler, he had handled millions without even stealing a spoon. The Democrats applauded this. Butler returned the fire by accusing Swann with hav ing burned Catholic churches, dis franchised the Irish, and then turn ing around at a later day and court ing the latter 8 vote. While Butler was speaking, Swann started for the lobby to get a drink of water. But ler, pointing his finger at him said: "There he goes, now, after vomiting all his filth on me." Both sides kept it up in this vein for half an hour. Old members say that for gross per sonalities Butler has never been par alleled in all the disgraceful scenes in Congress. A BOLTEB BOLTED. The main cause of the partial Dem ocratic defeat in Connecticut was owing to the fact that the Democratic candidate in the Second Congression al District had been a bolter at the election two years ago, at which time he assisted in the election of the Radical candidate. ; Hence, at this election, as a natural consequence, the Democracy themselves were very lukewarm in his'support, many hun dreds even refusing to go to the polls and thus that District, as well as the State, was turned over to Radicalism. This is the natural consequence when bolters and dissenters secure an en dorsement through the trickery or carelessness of conventions, and its frequent recurrence in politcal his tory should be a warning to. Demo crats in the future not to put such an odious load upon the shoulders of Democratic voters. It is said that the prospects of Alaska are getting beautifully smaller every month or so. The cost of its occupation by tne government is nearly $11,000 a month, besides sup plies. ' The j roducts last year appear to have consisted of about $14,000 worth of . salmon. $2,400 worth of seal and dog-fish oil, and a materi ally decreased fur trade. The Rus sian population seem to be anxious to get into some part of the Czar's dominions; the American and Europeans generally think they can do better almost anywhere else, while the Indians, who comprise a large majority, don't apparently know much about anything. Thx Oregonian seems to be in ter rible threes of misery just now be cause it has discovered that the De mocracy propose to conduct the next Presidential campaign upon the prin ciples of State Soverignity, White Superiority and the resurrecution of the Old Constitution. The editor of that paper knows that such a fight will be extremely disastrous to the Radicalism and Imperialism of the dominant party, hence its "oneasy- ness. Thx successive stages of North western growth are remarkably illus trated by a paragraph in the Waver- ly, Iowa, Republican, which says : "We have a man in our city who was born in 1800, and has a son who was born in the Territory of Michigan, and another one in the Teritory of Wisconsin, and still another one in the Territory of Iowa, and also a daughter born in the State of Iowa- all in the same house! . Col. J. W. Woods is the man." Thx New York Evening Mail (Rad ical) says that "too much passion and hard feeling are getting into the controversy .over Mr. - Sumner's re moval from the headship of the Sen ate Committee on Foreign Relations," and that unless it is stopped the breach in the Republican party will become ' too wide to be healed over, and that the ruin of its organization will follow. , ' On the vote for members of Con gress in New Hampshire, the Demo crats ' have a clear majority over Radicals and scattering, of 647; and the majority against the Radical can didates is 2,100. On the vote for Senators, the Democratic majority is over 2,700. We think New Hamp shire may be safely reckoned as a Democratic State. v At the State . electien in Rhode Island, last month, the Radical ma jority vm over three thousand less than that ior Grant in 1868.

In the Senate yesterday Mr. Howe, of Wisconsin, who a few days ago had declared the martyr Sumner to be a traitor to the cause of Radical ism, rose, andin the mostlachrymore vein, took back all he had said as to Sumner turning Democrat. After the speech which Mr. Sumner made on the Eu Elux, Mr. Howe's heart softened and he held out his long, thin arms to welcome back the stray sheep, as he had supposed Sumner to be. Sumner rejoined by declaring that he always was aid always will be a Radical. ; The new baptism over, all were made happy, and Sum ner was as good as new, and Howe Wept, i , , ; . ... .; ' .. " ' Eu Elux was then in order and Carl Schuns opposed this legislation and proposed amnesty as being the proper remedy, and be stated that as an independent Republican he should not voto for the bill. Senator Casserly ma.? a very able argument against the proposed iniquity, and as he had not time to finish he asked leave to print the rest c! his remarks, a request never refused, vrhich was objected to by Mr. Edmunds, in a vindictive and spiteful manner. "You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear." All the "amendments of the Judi ciary Committee were adopted,! as was also one offered by John Sher man, which2asseases damages upon the city, county or parish in which person or property may be injured or outraged for political reasons;, and one by the cruel, bloody minded wretch Morton which strikes out the clause repealing the test'oath for ju rors. This, as stated by Mr. Rob ertson, Radical, of , South Carolina, excludes almost entirely the intelli gent whites of the South from the jury box. It is understood that the President used his power to pass these last amendments as he feels that he must have absolute sway in order to carry the South in the Presidential election, and to use the power given him to force himself as the next nominee, for if he is not nominated he will not use the power given him, and without such use be ing made of it Radicalism has no hope; though with or without it their fate is sealed. The House was the'scene of rath er a lively debate over a speech which was printed in the Globe with out having all been spoken. It Lad been delivered, or at least a portion of it, by Mr. Garrett, of Tennessee, and wile on the subject of- Butler's son-in-law, Ames, of Mississippi, said he was "a happy combination of knave and fool, having no regard for truth, decency or honor, and a poor, pitiful coward, ice." The trouble is that Mr. Garrett's ignorance of par liamentary rules led him to say just what he thought, and which no doubt is correct, but which is not allowable in the House, and there was a great hubbub about it, but after considera ble virtuous indignation had been ex pended by the truly loil and moral men, Ben. Butler put in and the re sult was that his bitter enemy, Farns worth, moved very near to where Butler was speaking about personal matters, and glared in his face in a manner most ferocious and said that "it was sometimes necessary to be personal in protecting the interests of the country." He then, Jooking at Butler, shook his finger at him and continued: "When a coward and poltroon, crept in here (the Speaker's gavel made such a noise that the remainder of the sentence was lost)Butler shrunk away from Farnsworth as though he expected immediate chastisement. This epi sode and the strong language used was immediately seized by Mr. Cox to show that old members sometimes violate the rules. : The speech of Mr. Garrett was merely expunged from the Globe. The National Banks were yester day saddled with an expense they hardly dreamed ot. Some ring had a bill passed in the Senate providing for a re-issue of new national bank notes; as neither the banks nor the controller of' the currency had asked for the re-issue. Congress, by a vote of 103 to 70, decided that the banks should pay the cost of : the work, about $1,000,000. That job was badly damaged, I reckon. The unity, harmony and the entire ignoring of personal feelings which exists to-day in the Democratic par ty is a sure augury of i success in 1872. ' The existence of this acqui escence of he Democratic members of Congress in the desires of the Western members, who urge that St. Louis be selected as the place for holding the -next National Democrat ic Convention. The Western mem bers claim that it is central - in loca tion, easy of access, being connected with all parts of the country by rail ways. The city is remarkably healthy. agreeable and attractive. Its hotels are numerous, large and well kept, with ample accommodations to pro vide for all who may choose to visit the city during the 7 session , of the Convention. Such a compliment as this to the great and diversified in terests of the West, it , is claimed, would have great political weight, and would also be considered as a recognition of the ' Dmocratio ' suc cesses in the West last fall. There has been no National Democratic Convention held, of late years, in the West except that of Chicago. The Western members claim that the choosing of St. Louis would have the effect of greatly strengthening their hands j There is no doubt but the West wil be the ground on which the contest in 1872 will be decided. The strife will be warm and, bitter, especially in States which are now Radical, and this reason, no doubt, has greatly influenced the Democrat ic delegation in Congress, and - per sonal preferences vanished at once for the good of the party, and they now urge St. Louis for the honor of being the spot in which the next President of the United States will bo selected. ;.i . , : v , . .
