We notice with feelings of mortifi cation tliat many Eastern De'mocr.-Uio exclianges which come to onr table are already flying at their mast-heads the nominees of the Cincinnati Con vention the greater nnmber of them without even accompanying the names with the customary announcement of " subject to the decision ot the Na tional Democratic Convention." If the Baltimore Convention sees no other alternative but to form a coali tion with the Liberal liepublicans and endorse the nomination of tlree- ley and Brown if in the wisdom of that Convention it is deemed neces sary to the salvation of our couutr to ., furl the battle-scarred Democratic banner for a season and form an Alli ance with those ot tha liepublicans who have deserted the regular organ ization of that party it seeras to ns it will be time enough then to run up the " Dolly Vardea" colors and begin the fight upon the issues which such an alliance will necessarily beget, without now rushing into the anus of the Greeley movement and forestall ing the action of our regular Conven tion. "We have surely fallen upon evil times when Democratic papers can be found flying a Republican tick et at their mast-head before the masses of the great Democratic party have .given expression to their views through a regularly authorized Coa-i-ention. Upon this subject the Sonoma (CaL) .Democrat very sensibl 3 observes that, while the indorsement of Greeley and Urown by the Baltimore Convention is possible, it is not a matter of such certainty as to justify time-servers in flying off the handle, as some of theia have done. It is ; not surprising that the South, weary with waiting for a release from her persecutors, shouhl accept with avidity any candidate that offers the hope of an escape from .the intolerable tyranny ot the present Administration; but why Democrats in this State shooM be hi such uu " seemly haste to indorse a life-long op ponent, in the Cincinnati nominee, is -surprising, when it is apparent to ail hat the political tide is turning ia our iiivor. The Democratic Convention will meet on the Otb of July. In this body the wisdom of the party will be assembled men of experience, who have carefully considered the situation .and are able to act intelligently thpir dftrisinn will b the vorl nfpnm- iiaand to all true Democrats. Mean lime let nothing be said or done which will create distention; let us wait with patience until they have de cided for ns. We hope and. believe that they will avoid all entangling alliances and. nominate a ticket that all Democrats can heartily support; such a course would accord with our individual wishes. : If, on the contra ry, they should adopt the Cincinnati .platform and its candidates, all Dem ocrats should occupy a position to en able them to go into the contest de termined to win without regard to their individual preferences. There is no necessity for haste, we have the .advantage so far. if we only wait until ear chosen Convention appoints standard bearers. 'PUBLISHERS' COSVEXTIOS". On the 27th Sane, 1871, the North Pacific Coast Publishers'' Association was or ganized at Salem, with A. L. Stinson President, U. E Hicks Vice Presi dent and Mart. V. Brown Secretary and Treasurer. The Association ad journed to meet on Thursday, Jone 27, 1872 next Thursday. As it is only a few days until the time ar rives, and as we. Jiave heard nothing whatever in relation to the matter, we presume all interest in the late of the Association has died out. This is jas it should be. As Treasurer of the concern we had 5 of its : money in onr stocking alter the adjournment of the Association last year; and now, after taking an inventory of our finan ces, we think it would be highly cred jtable to our official integrity if the .Association would never meet and -call upon us for an exhibit. We don't .see low we could make an exhibit that would ' aggrandize" us very much. So if the other four members of the "North Pacific Coast Publish ers' Ass'n" are willing to let the corpo ration go by default it w uld certainly be in very bad . taste for us to raise our feeble voice in opposition. I Pro vided the Association shall not asso ciate next Thursday we shall then take it for granted that it is a "dead issue" and shall appropriate the funds of the concern to the promotion of an object which we have long and fondly cherished in our bosom and which ave know will meej; VHIi the warm approval of the quartette pf noble and geaerons gentlemen who were asso ciated with us in the defunct Associa tion, to-wit: the founding and estab jshment -of a .'home for indigent and invalid newspaper publishers. . When ever th 3 a hojne" is sufficiently ample in its dimensions and. appoioutments to accommodate a Urger number than .tbe late Treasurer of the late North Pacific Coast Publishers' Association tie public shall be duly notified. -'" 'f - : --- m HuuifeaaeereBU 'TIELDnrO TO CLAOU." The Oregoniati, in obedienca to the behests of its railroad "boss," mak an onslaught upon tho Radical plat form, adopted at Philadelphia, becanee its sixth resolution "opposes further grants of lauds to railroads and mo nopolists." That paper calls this res olution "an obvious yielding to the senseless clamor" that prevails in ihu Hast upon the subject of laud grunts. Now, as this resolution is iu exact conformity to the opinion of President Grant, as expressed in his nunual message, of courso the Oregonian writes the President down as the chief f the "senseless clamorciV upon this subjaet. Of course tho Oregon railroad king sees danger to his plundering schemes iu this official expression of the Kadi cal partv, and hence his" organs throughout th State must raise their Toioes in chorus -nd protest against it. What avail will bo the expendi ture by Holladay of teas of thousands of dollars to carry the elections in this Sate it his Kcpreseocattves and Senators in Congress are to bo muz zled in this matter of land grants, and if their efforts to secure to their mas ter vast tracts of the publics domain are to be thus throttled iu their very ineipiency ? Nothing bufrniu to onr Tailroad king would follow such ac tion on the part of Congress; and. with his fall down would tumble the foundation and support of the Radi cal party of Oregon. Hence tho Qr egonian frantic howl against its Na tional Convention. for incorporating such a ' senseless" resolution into its platform. We hardly think' the Orrgonlrn need to tear its nether garment over this matter. As the lladical party is notorious for breaking its pnblio promises and pledges to the people, it is hardly probable that it will nt this late day soil its record by living up to the spirit of this land grant res olution or any other portion of its promises embodied iu tie Philadel phia platform. A Deeuved Compliment. Hon. W. B. Laswell. of Canyon City, Grant county, has just been elected for the third time to the office of Prosecuting Attorney for the Fifth Judicial Dis trict. This year he had no opposi tion, and received almost tho entire vote of both parties ot the District. He is a Democrat of the straightest sect, but in the discharge of his offi cial duties he knows no party and panders to no prejudices. He is a young man of more than ordinary talent, and has already achieved for himself ah enviable reputation in th practice of his profession. A Slight Difteeexce. At the Portland city election last Monday there were G35 less votes cast than at ! the State election two weeks previous. The Jlerahl in Fpeaking of this dif ference, sagely remarks: The differ ence iu the result of the vote over that ot two weeks ago is accounted for on the ground that ' tho railroad hands arc all concentrated in Douglas county, and that the high price of axle-grease would have made it a rath er unprofitable investment to have brought them here on vesterdav. IvE-bect! The Eugene Journal says Attorney General Williams "con tributed largely to tho success of the Republicans in . the late election." We last week stated that Williams contributed a large sum to carry the election, and we are now pleased to see our very trnthfnl republican cotem porary of Eugene so promptly corrob orate our statement. . The Oregonian of last Thursday publishes VoorheesV speech against Greeley as a Grant campaign docu ment. It occupies fourcolums iu that paper. Democratic statesmen, like the distinguished Indianian, Voorhees, could not bo in worse business than furnishing literature for Radical papers and political pabulum for Black Re publican stomachs. ; The Senatorial Contest. It is now thought that our distinguished fellow citizen, Dr. E. K. Geary, will be Williams' most formidable oppo nent in the coming Senatorial coutest. As between two republicans we would have no hesitancy in preferring the election of Dr. Geary to that of the demagogue and political prostitute, Williams. Ex-Senator Buckalew has been nominated by the Pennsylvania De mocracy as their candidate for Gov ernor. The nomination is regarded as a very strong one. The resolutions place the Democracy on the Constitu tation, Jefferson's Inaugural and Jack son's FarewellAddress, but are silent on the question of nominations by the Baltimore Convention. . A court at Hongkong lately con demned a criminal to be killed by wakefulness. , The culprit, a strong and bealfcby man, was kept awake constantly for fifteen days,' his suffer ing for the last few hours being of the most excruciating character. , At last he dropped down, and the heart ceased to beat. . Roasting alive is mer cy compared with such torture. .Tlssliarshest thing that has been said ofMr. Greeley is the remark of a Wesh paper in Scranton, which actu ally asserts that "Bip sing ip Greeley mifl'n drunippl nypunt scrigg gy Prl Intyl ot gmshx drulitzmt begply in wrilt womuls-dr gunuojz." v - EOUTIIEEU DEMOCEAOY. Ltxx Co., Ok., June 15, 1872. Editor Democrat : I have just returned from nn ex tended tour through tho Southern StateB. I was iu Kentucky, Tennes see, Alabama, Georgia and South C u olina, and had the fullest opportu nity of making observations ot tdVairs there ami conversing with representa tive gentlemen of those State upon tho sublet of national political af fairs. At first I was struck with as tonishment nt tho unanimity with which the Democracy of that section endorse tho nomination of Greeley and Brown ; but after making closer observations and having fuller oppor tunity of conversing with publio men upon tho subject, I ceased to wonder why the Democracy of the South wero so unanimous in support of tho Chv cinnnti nominees, and began to mar vel why tho Democracy of tho North did not look upon ttlfo subject with moro favor. Tho pooplo of tho South iiavo been so crushod by tho infamous act of iho present administration- hvo suffered such gross outrages frou' Presidential tyranny have en dured so many exactions and oppres sions from trpct-bag governments set over them b Federal interference and difranHii9onunt for opinion's sako that they arockmorous for a change it tho federal adnvu.'stration and are willing to throw asidtf all past dif ferences upon question 4f political policy and unite with t.'Y class of voters who will assist in free them from tho galling thralldom wi. 'ch an arrogant and .Hellish Presidcntia.1 ty rant and hU tools havo for yeas.' forced upon them. Several mouths ago, when tho revolt occurred in tho Radical party and men ri'present tiug the cream of its intellect and character withdrew lrom its tightly drawn party liu". tutd inaugurated the movement which culminated in the nomination of the Cincinnati ticket, the people of the South saw in this movement a hope,, for their escape from tho opproMon of a military President, and casing aside all for mer prejudices which might militate against the success of thin "new de parture,' arc now a unit in support of this Liberal movement. I need only refer you to State after State that have instructed their delegates to Baltimore to support Greeley and Brown toMiow you that I have not overdrawn the mmi timent of the Southern Democracy in respect to the Liberal lleform candi dates. True, many of the .Southern people admitted to me that Greeley was not their first choice; but they say that to them it is a matter of freedom or slavery, life or death, to be rid uf Grant administration; and they see no other way of doing it than by sup porting Greeley. They would be glad to be informed of any other way to defeat Grant, but none has yet been made known and the prospect of any other mode of succt-s grows more and more obscure. They there fore consider it important to remain no longer lukewarm, but to organize at once for the campaign with Greeley as their standard-bearer. They ap peal to the Democracy of the North to imitate their example in the sup port of the Liberal ticket, and assist them in throwing off the yoke of op preBion which has since the war made them more abject slaves to military tyranny tlian the down-trodden peo ple of Poland. Now, sir, I am a Democrat ; have always becu true to the standard of my party, and have stood fast by my colors when contumely, insult, and even injury was heaped npon many thousands of ns for opinion's sake. I challenge any man to show a better or more consistent Democratic rec ord than myself. Yet when tho peo ple of my own native South my own loved home of former days, before the frosts of many winters had sil vered my hair with tho hue of old agi; are aufl'ering oppression and tyranny such as no people have ever before endcred under a civilized gov ernment, I cannot hesitate as to my duty. I shall cheerfully fall into line and cast my lot and my voto with those who are seeking to defeat the military tyrant and inaugurate such, a reform in our national affairs as will guaranty the fullest rights and privil eges to those who have for years suf fered because of being deprived of them. I look eagerly forward to the Baltimore Convention, in the hope that it will legalize the already pledged support of a large class of Democrats to tho Liberal movement. With much respect, I am, sir, , ; Yours very truly, Daxiec Bkixgle. The N. Y. World pudlishes the statement that a member of the Lib eral Republican Committee says that if Greeley ia indorsed by the Baltimore Convention he will, if elected, make Horatio Seymour Secretary of State. Greeley promises to support the Dem ocratic nominee for Governor of New York. " . . , - --. : , A New York Radical remarked the other day: '"Why, if Horace is elect ed, he will plant the white house yard with onions," to' which a white-coat partisan replied : "Well, ho won't wait to have the onion seed given to him." : ..- t ; -', , ' Judge Feltori, of San Francisco, one of the most brilliant.' orators on the coast, is to perorate at Portland on the ge-krios Fourth.

II. Williams as the heavens 'are above the earth. He was one of God's noblest works on honest man. Wil liams is not. That's the difference be tween them.
