The test of a man's true character is the way in which he puts up with things. Any man can be brave ami cheerful in sunshine, when no cloud crosses his path. But let him see dis aster looming in front; let him have to sit, as the Turks say, with the linger of patience on the lip of silence ; let him find cherished pos sessions trembling and passing away, then is the time for the real grit to show. Strive, of course he will ; light, of course he will, (if he be good lor anything.) so long as effort can avert what be believes is disaster; but when he has struggled bravely and has dono his level best, and yet finds his efforts fruitless and that Nature and circumstances are too strong for him, then comes the test. These observation apply to indivi duals, and to parties, and to localities, loo. The great Democratic pirty has met a crushing defeat such an one as were it an actual army would drive it pell mell into a hasty crowd of fugitives, arms lost, colors gone, ar tillery taken, camp in the victors' bauds, seeking vainly to keep cohe sion and organization together. Let us see how the chiefs bear themselves in this stress. How does General Hancock take it ? Like the true sol dier that he is, "The election is oyer," he says, " and it would be folly to reopen it." The Bulletin, Republi can paper though it be, says of him this week, "There is nothing of the trickster in the composition of Gen eral Hancock. He is as manly in his acts as in his utterances, as brave on the political field as on that of battle. He may commit blunders in both arenas, but they are nevertheless those not dictated by unworthy motives. He abides by the result of the election with a sincerity that is unselfish and patriotic." Contrast this conduct with the miserable exhibition of those " trick sters" by whom the Democratic cause was so utterly broken. See Chairman Barnum, ad Messrs. Kelly & Co. Mark their mutual abuse ; see how each one accuses the other of spilling the milk, and how loth they are to recoguize that the milk is spilt. Read, then, the respectable Demo cratic press and see how, with one ac cord, they agree to recognize results fairly, and how they repudiate this contemptible cry of fraud, fraud, New York is lost by fraud. Notice the strains of those organs that were loudest and deepest in their scurrility whilst the contest was in progress. Can they bear defeat ? Is there one particle of greatness in their composition ? See how they attempt still to impose on their de luded readers ; how they try to be little the results gained ; how they catch at every straw blown them by Chairman Barnum and his crew. Now that all is over the lesson will not be lost on our Democratic friends, and through them our com mon country will be the gainer if we all learu that great causes are never won by trickery, fraud, mis representation, abuse, or the unscru pulous use of the money-bag ,r barrel. We were never bo confident of re sults as when we saw the sluice-gates of lying opened on General Garfield after his selection at Chicago. To see adversaries driven to use such wea pons would inspire the weakest war rior with courage. We may draw similar encourage ment in the railroad war now being waged with the O. R. & N. Company and their Portland backers. . Just such means are employed as we have seen recoil with fatal effect on those who used them in the politi cal fight. Just such results will most surely follow. And as we counsel now modera tion in victory, and the speedy allay ing of the burning feelings drawn forth by the vehemence of the politi cal fight, and the cultivation of the friendliest possible feelings towards onr defeated Democratic brethren, so, after our local fight is won, and our emancipation from bondage achieved, shall we strive to inculcate friendli ness and brotherly love towards am bitious and shall we say selfish Portland. But not till then. SOUTHERN SENTIMENT. Commenting on the result of the election the Atlanta, Georgia, Con stitution says: "It is the result of a series of blunders, beginning with the Potter Committee and ending with the surrender of the party to the selfish whims of an element which had John Kelly as its carumaudhig general. It would appear that the line'of sectionalism has been sharply drawn by the voters of the North, but there is nothing depressing in this fact. We are willing that the North should draw the sectional line in poli tics if the South be permitted to draw a line with regard to the progress and improvement of their conditions and forces which make a people hap py in their fields, their workshops and their homes. We have a pros perous future before us, and to this we should look intently. We have the cause of public education to pro mole and the weltaie of a great and growing section to foster. The South expelled little more from General Hancock's administration than it will ask from General Garfield's. We want nothing more than simple, ex act, absolute justice. If the new President owes nothing to the South, he at least owes something to the country; and we shall be glad to see him cancel the debt by giving us an administration as fair, just and clean as that of Mr. Hayes." A WAIL FROM NASBY. The Lord is agin the democracy. In vain we prayed for short crops, and in vain our supplicaehens went up for rinderpest and hoof rot among the cattle on a thousand hills. In vain we implored for a potato rot and potato bugs, or anythihg that would distress the Yank and meke him howl for a change. L, the more we prayed for dis tress the more there wuz prosperity. The crops were good and the prices therefor bully, and what kin a dimekrat do when there is no trouble. Wo preached hard times and thev shook jrold and silver under our noses. We said to the laborer, lo, you are oppressed, ami he jeered, showin uv us a savins' bank book. The smoke uv the furnace wuz to us the smoke of the torment. The clang uv hammers and the weeze uv the engine wuz our funeral knell. We sent Blackburn and other brigadeers to the north, but the peo ple put their tongues in their cheeks and wagged their heads in derision. We sed lo; we hev a voonyuri sol- jer for our candidate. And they ansered, sayin, verily he hez changed his yooniform. We offered 'em free trade and they answered, sayin, give us tariff. We offered 'em soft money, but they replied, sayin, no soft money in ourn. We offered lo take the government off their hands, but they sed it wuz doin ver3f well now, thank yoo. Gone is the post offices, and the custom houses shel never know us agin. Gone is the hope uv penshuns and the payment uv our war claims. Toledo Blade. HOW HE RECEIVED THE NEWS. On the afternoon of the 3d a meeting of Republicans in Chicker ing Hall, New York City, sent this message to General Garfield : " James A. Garfield Republicans of New York City assembled in meeting at Chickering Hall, send their most hearty congratulations to the Presi dent-elect, and assure him of the handsome majority in the Slate ot over 40,000. Down goes ' 329.' " From this time the President-elect felt more free to express himself. He said, after one of the most favorable dispatches : " Gentlemen, this result means three things. First, that the American people believe in the na tionality of the government ; Second. that.lhey believe in a good, honest, healthy financial policy ; Third, that they are determined not to narrow and disgrace the sphere of American politics by endorsing a campaign of personal aouse. The tide ot emigration still con tinues to run this way. News from Eastern States say that the emigra tion to Oregon and Washington in the next year will be enormous. 0RRG0N AND CALIFORNIA WHEAT. The shipping houses of Portland have sample bas. sent them from the San Fran cisco Produce exchange, of the way wheat is firadert in that market the present year. The samples are number one, two and three, and the editor of the Farmer is struck with the fact that the best shipping wneai, mar&eu ao. 1, is not nearly so good an article as the average clean white wheat of the Willamete valle. In the California No. 1 there is a proportion of shriveled grain and some cheat and oats, while onr average valley wheat is plump and clean if it has passed through a well known ware house. It really seems then that with the quality of Oregon valley wheat abuve the average, there should be a price o:':ered for it above what is paid for California No. 1, because our wheat is really worth much more, or there is no trust to be put in ap y f i - . i . pea ranees, uur oesi is certainly equal to California gilt edge milling wheat, which is quoted as high as-$l 52J per cental, and vet the quotations for our valley wheat are 31 421 45 per cental only. Astorian. The assessment roll of Umatilla county shows the gross valuation of property in the county to be $3,520, 100; indebtedness and exemption re duces this amount to $2,102,676, an increase over the assessment of 189 of $538,935.

Wilbur, of ti e Simcoe agency, with his wife, are sojourning in Washington, D. C. The cnltivation of sorghum is being encouraged to a considerable extent in Eastern Oregon. Waseo county is taking tha lead in wealth of Eastern Oregon counties, having a population of 12,000 peo,.le, 295,000 head of sheep, 75,000 cattle, and 15,000 head of hogs, while the properly valuation is over $4,000, 000. Smallpox is raging in San Fran eico, and considerable alarm is mani fested among its population. Thirty five new cases are reported and chil dren who have not been vaccinated are being sent home from the schools by order ot the directors. The "Mammoth Farm" of the Blalock Wheat Growing Company of Eastern Washington Territory, comprises 00,000 acres of wheat land, of which 25,000 acres are fenced.

Ice formed in Walla Walla last Thursday night a half inch in thick ness. The mercury that night reach ed the coldest mark of the season 27 degrees above zero. No candidate for delegate to Con gress in Washington Territory ever received 1000 voles in a single county. Brents came within 7 of reaching the number in Walla Walla litis year, and he has been the nearest. A new pipe organ has be?B con traded for by the Taylor-street Church, to be placed in position be fore the 1st of next February. It was heart rending to see with what pitiful and mournful faces the Democrats on Saturday night pulled down the pictures, transparencies and banners that graced the hall on the corner of First and Stark streets dur ing the campaign. New Northwest. Edward Murphy, convicted of the murder of T. D French near llepp ner last sprinc, has been sentenced to be hai ged at Pendleton on Wednes day, the 5th day of Januury, 1881. He declined to say anything in his own behalf and received his sentence wit Wit visible emotion.

It is reported that Fort Colvil'.e is to be put in complete repair for the accommodation of three companies of troops. A party of emigrants from the Kan sas colony, consisting of 17 wagons, passed through The Dalles last week on their way to the Sound country. All are well to-do, and just the kind of people needed in this country. All of the old settlers were ac quainted with the McCubbin family who lived on Salem prairie. One of the boys, John H. McCubbin, recent ly met with a terrible accident near his home in , Wallowa valley. He was feedigg a threshing machine at the farm of Richardson brothers, when-he had his left arm torn off at his elbow, the lower part of the arm passing through the thresher, leaving a ragged, torn and bleeding stump. The accident happened about 2. o'cl'k in the afternoon, and am amputation was performed at 8 o'clock in the evening by Dr. Dean, who, though destitute of surgical instruments ex. cept a butcher knife an i saw, did remarkably well. The accident cast a gloom over the entire community The sufferer stood deservedly high in the estimation of all who knew him. He is carefully looked after, is doing wetl and will recover.

Garibaldi is said to be an uncon scious prisoner, playing into the hands of others who use him for selfish pur poses to establish a Republic in Italy and restore the old Papal aud Bour-. bon faction to power. A MODEL FUfJESAL ORATION. A Chicago Tribune 3poci.1l from Hartford, Conn., gives Mark Twain's funeral oration over the democratic party to an overflowing amheuoe. Coming, as it did, immediately after the addresses by two clergymen, the audience did not at first comprehend its humor. The following is the address: There are occasions which are so solemn, so weighted with the deep concerns of life, that every licensed jester mii3fc lay aside his cap and bells and renumber that he is a man aud a mortal; that even his light butterfly career of folly has its serious seasons and he cannot ilee them or ignore them Such a time, my friends, ia this, for we are in the ner presence of one who is a paisenger from this life, one whom we have known long and well, but shall know no more forever. About the couch of him who was stricken are gath ered those who hold him dear and who await on the coming of a great sorrow. The breathing is faint and grows fainter. His voice becomes a whisper. I cannot record the languishing ebb and flow of the rem nant of hi3 life. His lips are pallid, and the froth of devastation gathers upon them. His face is drawn, his cheeks are sunken, his form is still, his feet are ice, his eye is vacant, he picks at the coverlet, he babbles about the green fields, the death rattle is in his throat, his time is at hand. Every breeze that conies to us out of the distance, near and far, and from every segment of the wide horizon, is heavy with voices of mourning and sornuv accomplished; and the burden of the mourning is that the aged and stricken democratic party is dying; and the burden of the lament will be: " The mighty is falleu, the democratic party is dead ! Who and vvhat is he that is soon to be dead ? A footsore, political wanderer, a political tramp, an itinerant poor actor, familiar with many disguises, a butcher of many parts. In the north he played "Protection and Hard Money," in the west he played " Pro tection," "Free Trade," "Hard Money" aud " Soft Money, " changing the parts ac cording to the exegencies of the times. In the south he played "Tariff for Kevenue ;" in the north aud west. "The Apostle of Freedom ;" in the south, "The Assassin of Freedom;" aud mouthed the sacred shib boleths of liberty with cruel and bloody lips. His latest and final appearance upon the natiou's stage was "Forgery," a f.iree in which he was assisted by the whole strength of the company. It was a poor piece, indifferently played, and so it failed, and he was hissed and abused ; but he lies low, and blame ami praise arc aiike to him. The charitable will spare the one, the judi cious will reserve the other. Friends, this is 110 time for jest and levity, but a time for bended forms and uncovered heads, for all stand in the hkj presence of majestic death, a momentous and memorable death, a gxisiy and awful death, for it is death from -which there is no resurrection. Heaven bless us, one and all ! Heaven temper the blow to the afflicted family! Heaven grant them a change of heart and a better life! THE GREAT RIVER GF ALASKA. Alaskan explorers report one of the largest rivers in the world the Yukon as navigable for-steamers 2,500 miles, and 500 miles from its mouth it receives a very large navigable tribuflry. The basin formed by the confluence is twenty-iour miles wide. The Yukon is nearly as large as the Missis sippi. Indians are-e very where; the war be tween the tribes is continuous. There is snow for six months, and, without roads, dog-sledges rind good traveling. Game abounds, and Indians have an easy life. From seven to nine dogs make a team, the old one byng the leafier. The driver has 10 watch this dog. If it gets on the scent of game it is off, and the whole team is de moralized. Off they scamper through the woods and thickets, npsettina the load, smashing the sled, tearing the harness aud giving the driver days of hunting to restore the status quo. So vast a country, traversed by navigable waters, will tempt the restless and speculative adventurers to explore it. It is a significant circumstance that of the 457,557 immigrants who came to the United States during the year ending with last Junf, nearly 100,000 were from the British North Ameri can provinces. Canada sends us more immigrants than any European country, except Great Britain and Ireland, and nearly a third as many as all Europe. Of the arrivals 346, 747 were from Europe, 101,681 from America W3& 5,839 from Asia, An Open Letter. The following letter explains itself: "Editor Standard: On returning from Port Orford iny attention was called to a report of my remarks at Lebanon, stating that I ' called Gen. Han cock a traitor,' and. that he was ' no more to be recognized as a follow American citizen than Benedict Arnold,' and that ' the two men should be classed together on the pages of history - to be read in contempt, ' "etc. Had I ever entertained such sentiments, although never having expressed them, I should remain silent, but as such views are not and never have been entertained or in dorsed by me, much less expressed, will you please give the denial as much publicity as you did the report. " Respectfully yours, M. C. George. A grand Indian pollach has been in progress on Squaxon island, a few miles below Olympia, this week. Some 1000 Indians assembled there, making indiscriminate presents of blankets, flour, clothiug, etc., to each other. A number of Olympians, in cluding Governor Newell and his family, went dowu to witness the ex ercises. The unearthly veils of the joyous savages could be heard for miles around.
