In tlm kocqiuI volume of Orant'd 'Ti rronal Memoirs," is n-citod iIih fol lowing incuUmi of tine courteny botwefn hostile armies: 'Ah I would li unilnr cliort-rangn fin nnd in an opim'country 1 took nobody with me, except, I lii'lievo, a liujlr wlio htayei), Konm dinianct in tbe n-ar.

The senti nel on their post er.Med out,, in like manner, "Turn out the gunrd for the commanding p-nernl," nnd, I believe, addrd, Gen. Cirnnt." Tln-ir lie.e- in a momeiit front-faced to, the north, facing me, and giivo a salute, which T re turned. t '. Th spirit of thin courtesy oppearn in tho history of all creat wars. Jn the desperate (ightiup, tljnt took plac Im' fore Lord Wellington (tore victory from the French a Tulavera, it is'reporled. that certain troops, fearful'y exhausted by thn lieat of tlm summer's day, came suddenly upon a little brook that stole its sinuous way through the valley; by tacit consent 11 ring on Loth sici in a moment ceased and Saxon and Gaul drank hastily of the sweet water.hathed hurriedly their burning brows, lin-lly exchanged gay and courteous acknowl edgement of each othrr's splendid val or, and as soon of tlm last suilering sol dier had slacked his thirst and regained his ranks, the dreadful strugglo for the mnstery began annw mora fiercely than before. At thn battle of Chickainauga, Sept. 20, 18G3, fell Gen. Win. 11. Lytle, an eloquent Cincinnati lawyer of tint! literary accomplishments, and author of tlm popular poem, '''I am dying, Egypt dying." llm story w told that when his body was found by the Conf 'derates and identified among tho Union dead, 'jtlio Confederate oil cer present at onco gave tlm body ap escort of honor, and while tho corpse was borne, along tlifl chivalm rebel took olF his cap reverently and reeifed "1 am (Tying, Egypt dying," and subse quently said, "Poetry is neither Union nor Confederate; it belongs, like love and courage, to buminity." The .high souled Confederate was right. n ITolile thought has no Hex, r.o clime, no na tion; it is ns much the prido and pro perty of all as the air wo breathe; the sun that is the splendid "Eye of golden day;" the rain that mercifully blesses the earth, beneath and swells springs under the eat th; as tho breeze that touches tho fevered hrow with its cool kiss the world over, and k was in this Hue spirit that the English, in spite of their insular exe'usiveness, placed the bust of Longfellow in Westminster Ahhey; they fm-l that Longfellow is not English or Yankee, hut as the gallant Southern soldier said, belongs to the nice to honor, to prize and respect, no matter whether it blooms in England or America. As Pericles, tho great Athenian said: "When a great man .lies, the world mourns." So England took off its hat to Longfellow, not a great man nor a great poet, but a true poet to mothers and children, of the hearth and thn hume, and therefore particularly dear to the average Eng lishman, who, with all his brusqueness, is the most affectionate man in. the world, and at the same tiino the least !iitimentnl. Oregoniun, M A Suliil Plunk. The Democratic Stato platform lias this resolution: That we favor a nonpartisan and independent commission, whose duty shall be to count tlm money in the State treasury as often as may be necessary to injure that it shall reeiain in its lawful place of depository, in. stead of being used for private specula lion." Mr. Webb is a very appropriate can didale to stand on t'lis plauk. When ho was County Treasurer he insisted on his book being examined end the county funds being actually counted every quarter. With him holding the sack there will 1x no unlawful "private soeculation" with the State funds, a r practice w hich has undoubtedly b-n P.;(..i illto..n alarming extent for, i years past. East Oregonian. I88fi. A Monopolist, unJ a Tnrincr of Dm Hulls d:ir. W'o take tho following extract , from an editorial in last Monday morning's Oregonian: , ', ' 'Out of all of the efforts , ma'da in Oregoo by tho. selfish railroad policy to boom particular .localities, only one per manent town lias grown, that of Cor neliu?),in Washington county, and to th'w day it is hated even by thostf who find it to tlmir intirest to deal with or throcgh it. 'Curneljuj wai laid out midway between Ilillsbcro and Forest Grove, For yearn thr cars were run past the old towns, and all their citi lens who wished to usn tho road were obliged to trudge to Cornelius, This, in thn matter ot freight traffic, wras a Special inconvenience, - hardship and loss. Col, Cornelius was ono of the parties interested in thjs business, and it was understood at the limo that the arbitrary action of thn railroad, man agement in his favor was in return for services rendered l yhim in the legisla.' ture. We aro told that lie still holds a lease or contract with tho railroad giv ing him special privileges or cdvan-' tages, which leasn or contract has some eighty. seven out of ninetyniino years yet to run. Under thie arrangement it is still complained that ho is enabled to exact , toll upon overy pound of freigf.it that comes to or goej from Cor noliun., This bgsiness of. toll-taking, with that of keeping a general country store, forum Col. Cornelius' occupation in life, though in some unaccountable way he ia intde to pose before the peo ple ns a "granger candidate." It wa the elLrt to mal e a town at Cornelius, to the injury of other places in Wash ington county and to the oppression of the people, that retired Col. Cornelius from fuMic lifn over a dozen years J Compliment. The Wasco Sun, a higln tariff Re publican organs, says: ' 1 "The citizens of Dalles City can but feel proud that one of their most prom inent biisinosH men, R. F. Gibons, and one who has for many years been Clerk of the county, and is now Mayor of the city, should, without any personal seeking, be selected by the Democratio Convention as a candidato for Secre tary of Stato. We do not agreo in po litical policy with Mr. G., hut we do believe him an honest able man, every way fitted for such a place, and should Im be successful in obtaining the elec tion ly thn people, we have fall faith his Tilling the position with great dig nity and signal ability." To get a worker for Supreme Judge get a Democrat. Judge Thayer is the only Democrat at present n tho Su premo bench of Oregon. ,Th people need another and m Strahati is a Deni ocrat he should be elected. The fol lowing will show the work of Justice Waldo and the other justices fro,m the October term of 1884 to November 30, 1885, of the cases, reported: ( Thaver wrote 40 opinions of the court. Lord wrote 39 opinions of the court. '' Waliio, wrote 12 opinions of the court it It will lie seen by tljia.! statement that of the cases on whiqh the justices have written opinions, and which were not delivered per curiam, Thitver wroU about IW) per cent. Lord wrote 3D per cent. WaLDO wrote 12 per cent. Give us a Democrat worker. The Democratic State Convention acted wisely in making Hon. 15. Gold smith chairman of tho State Central Comm'ttee. Resides being reliable mem'er of tlm party he is possessed of fine excutivs ability. As a safe or ganizer he has few equals in the State, and leing affable and courteous to a'l he is universally renpected. He is en titled to, and has already received the confidence and thanks of the party. Tiiey will not forget hi services. The lest informed men of loth par ties who reside near Hi!Woro tate that Col.

LimJ Pimciti. . .; ., . i Tm Commissioner of the General Land Office ias called upon the St Joseph & Denver City Railroad Co. to restore, to the publio domain an inji mense tract of hu.d in Nebraska that was wrongfully, acquired hy it twelve years ago. The Kansas Pacific will also have to release some 900,000 tcrei and the' Union Pacific 1,250,000 Icrei. These little patches will afford com fortable homes to 20,000 fami'.ies, who want .nothing better than the privU lego of redeeming this wilderness. Tho Commissioner has now in hand near 20,000,000 acres wrongfully withheld from tho people' by the corporations, and hut for a Democratio Administra.' tion they would never have been able ,to recover. Thero is, indeed, strong reasons for believing that successive Republican Secretatics of the Interior and Coiiniissioners of the Land Office aro as deep in the mire of psrsistent piracy of the public domain as the cor. porations.and the land grabbers them selves.

He secured a leaso .from Don Holladay while he was a memlter of the legisla ture, and in consideration of his vote1 for thn (300,000 subsidy steal, for an exclusive warehouse at Cornelius,' Washington county, and within three miles of that place. So effectual was his bargain with its railroad managers that the trains refused to stop either at" Iillsboro or Forest Grave, and not ft bushel of grain can- now be shipped' from Cornelius unless it pays toll to "Col. Tom." . . An ex member of Congress expresses the opinion that Dinger Hermann wil exhaust at least half of his salarj ip telegraphing back to Oregon reports of his "arduous labor", in the .interest of lis constituents. The. elastic strength' nf the magnetic wire was tested to. its utmost capacity when he sent , the tele-' gram announcing his proposition to secure an appropriation for Jibe con struct ion of a ship railroad; from the Lower Cascades to Celilo. It mar tei-1 sinably be expected that his pext grand," statesmanlike conception will lie the construction of a suspension bridge from Tillamook Hock to Honolulu.
