DEMOCRATIC RALLY ! IIU. J. W. XES3UT1I Will speak at the COURT HOUSE, in bati;rday,(1. 33, isso At 2 o'clock 1 31. EVEliVliODY INVITED. SIL1BY OF UEKVS ni KHIV Senator Biiyeu, of Linn, lias secure J the passage through tLe Senate of las lill to salary the ofiices of Clerks ami Sheriffs. By Lis able advocacy ami persoual superintendence of this bill be secured iis almost unanimous support ia the Senate, only four votes lieing vast against it, ami those four In-ing all Republicans. The bill stands s lair chance of passing the House also, and in case it should lecorae :i law will nia terialiy reduce tlie emoluments of these offices. The law is so frame! as to take effect the first of July, 1861, and pro vides for a salary of .91,500 a year for Clerks and Sberitli. All the fees are also substantially reduced, and must be paid into the county treasury. Depu ties are to be provided from time to time by the Count v Court, which will also fix their pay. We will publish the Full text of the bill after its enactment, and we compliment Senator Bilyeu on his effective work thus far accom plished, trusting that the meiuW-rs of the Hoube from Linn will push Lis bill to an early consummation. Latee. This bill passed the House on Wednesday evening, ami will no doubt become a law. Instead of the s-dary of Clerks and Sherifl beius fixed at $1,500, as -.slated in our forego ing article, the salary of Clerk in Linn is to be ? 1,800 per annum, and that of the Sheriff $2,000 j-er annum. This Is really the only measure of merit that Las passed the legislature so far, and we again compliment Sena tor Bilyeu upon Lis success. Thus to a Democratic minority are the people of the State indebted for an enactment that will save the tax-payers an immense sum of monev and relieve lilic3 of the incubus cf these sot-ailed "paying offices." We understand that the incumbent l.'lerks and Sheriffs h:tve made, v.n a -.iua already to contest the constttn )nality cf this enactment, and will iisfc. every effort- possible to render it null void. m:risu) i MKtn.

After it began to I di.iv iissed in the lie wfipiipcra, and before tin committee was appointed, I be sought him to make no statement for the public rye which might be incon sistetit with what Le Lad said to me.

I'OKI ITO Of THK SOI til. The Nashville American says that Con. Hancock's manly letter on South ern claims will meet as hearty a re sponse in the South as tho North, it has been charged that General Hancock dared not pronounce against the pay ment of these claims, when the fact is that there is no more determined oppo nent of the whole war shit" than the Southern people. The Alabama Demociacy speak out on this question in an address to the Democracy from the State Central Committee, thoroughly endorsing (Jen. Hancock's letter on the Southern ( 'lainis. und. snniminsr tin, says : " )ur party in Alabama stands committed by its pint form, by tho action of every de partment of all the State government and by tbe judges of its courts elected by it first, to an acceptance of tLe re milts of tLe war ; second, to tho equal political rigLts of every citizen ; tLird, to the faithful maintenance of the pub lie credit, htflte nnd national, and un flinching opjiosition to the tepitdiation of any public obligations ; fourth, to the free and fair exercise of tlie elect ivo franchise, and fifth, to the strictest economy in tho administration of pub lic nflairs." f The Hancock Association of .Louis iana have also held a meeting endors ing Hancock's position, and tho New i leans Uemaeral says : "We are glad that Ceneral Hancock has at last qoken on this subject in a manner to lay at rest tho biigulmo of Southern claims forever, and nowhere, in the country will his emphatic utterances receive moro hearty and cordial indorsement tlinti in tLo Southern States." The Memphis Apinl, the Mobile lli-ij'mlfr, and the North Carol nut und Virginia pa jiers come to our table freighted with cordial, epen and hearty endorsements of (Jen. Hancock's jssi lion on tliis qni-stion, sliowing com-la wve!y that the South is unqualifiedly opposed to the payment of any rebel war claims whatever ; hence tLat great Northern Radical journal, the New Voik Tim, has well summed up the matter in its editorial article the morn ing after the issuance of Hancock's let ter. That pajter very promptly averred that '"Gen. Hancock's position tqsn this question is conclusive. He ihs-s not sneak Is.-hind a forced construction of tho fourteenth amendment, but Jc dares Lis js-rsonal purjste in regard to legislation which the amendment does not cover. The ossuranee which he gives does credit to Lis honesty and Lis independence, and is one which every intelligent citizen, nhstevcr Lis joli tics, will rejoice to receive. TLe coun try can now devote its attention to otL er and graver issues between tLe two parties, of w Licit there is no lack, and os to which the position of Gen. Han cock is completely identified with that of his party." If the New Vol k Tiui'-s the great Radical headlight of the Republican party can afford to believe Hancock, and believe the jieopl-t of the South, who assert positively ami unequivocally that this question of tho payment of ivla-I war claims will tierrb fonsnfrrr-l fiirorahti, it is time that such orators as Mitchell, Williams, GiLh and others should devote their time to other and graver issues between the two parties. VtMV ARK THE! MI Ki: t Hayes Is Just leaving the North Pa- ciflc coast, nnd yet tho Cincinnati Commercit il declares that "a state of war exists in the South." It Is a Is-autiCtil Administration, then, which runs away from Washington at such a icrilom time and junkets in Oregon and California. If "a state of war ex ists in tho South," and tho Republi can Administration cannot keep the peace, tho sooner It is knocked out of power 'ho N;tter. THK IMClMttX Mt.tlKI.lt I III F, I lore is the way the Oregonum prods up its present Republican delegation in the Legislature : "It Las been clmrged tLat one of tLe members from Multnomah has been drunk at the cap ital and has neglegted the business of tho session. Tho people only wish that tho business cf tho session were more generally neglected. Jf Multnomah can find where that member got Lis wLisky, it ought to send every niemWr of the delegation a barrel of it." If tho condition of affairs In the ".solid south" is anything like as bad as the silly radical editors anil stump speakers represent, Is It not about time that thcro should be n cliango of administration. If fifteen years of radical legislation has failed to result in peace and good government then It Is better that jye have an adminis tration that will glyp us speedily peace, quiet and good government Let there bo a change-1 There yill lip a change on-March 4 th, 1SSR Hayes hnd 1,5,000 in Mainein 187C, and only 5 2,000 in Illinois, The Maino majority has "gone whero the woodbine twineth."
