W. G, T'VAULT, au:x. nr.AKniiV. Aclciiowlt-dgiuuiiti. Sinco our last Issue, the Democracy of Oregon niul the Democrntio party of Jackson county hnvo met and exer cised that frnncblso so dear to every American citizen, nnd in which he is secured liy tho constitutional charter of our political rights. Tlio result of the election in tills county for Representatives mnkos It our duly to .endergrnicfiilnckuowlodg. incuts for tlio nlmoit unanimous sup port given ut Wo again sny that we cannot oxprcss too much gratitude for the confidence nnd partiality expressed in our behalf. Wo ato fully nwnro that tho oflico of Representative of thn peoplo In the Stnto Legltluturo is onu uf great re sponsibility, demanding more energy nnd talent than can bo reasonably ex pected from us. We, liowavor, promlio the people of Jackson county that no exorllon of ours shall bo wanting to represent tho will of the peoplo, to Tar as that will Is known. The first nnd most important duty .devolving upon tho representatives of Iho people. is tho election of two United States Senators. Wo havo no fears In'sayin'g Hint In voting for Gen'l Lane for ono of tho Senators, wo not only carry out our will, both public nnd pri vnlc, but tho will of n largo majority of tho people of Jackson county, ns alio of the ontlro Stato. Ono Senator being elected, tho question will aiiie who shall bo hit colloague. Can the peoplo of Jackson county decide this matter In primary mooting t if so, then we will carry oul Iho will of tho ms jorlty, when fairly expressed. The electlon.of United Slntos Sena' tor should not bo governed by person al .partialities or prejudices, but that individual - should bo selected who Is best calculated to accomplish tho great it gopd for Oregon. The lime is olose nt hand when the representatives .will hnvo to act. If no instructions shall bo given, H Is then left for them to select from tho great number of as. pirants that person whom they may think best calculated to represent the Stato of Oregon In tho Unitod Slatos Senate, without ony regard to personal or local questions. If Oregon Is admitted as ono of the States of tho Union, it will also do volvo upon the Legiilaturo to enact all laws necessary for a full nnd complete .Stat J organization. This will requlro great oaro and strict nttontion on the part of- tho Legislature, calling forth iitor'o tjuji coniniQii legislative capacity. .It is not to bo expected that your representatives can accomplish nil things as you, of any particular local! ly, may desire ; nor is jt to bo expected that they can pleaso all, no matter how jealous and proper their judgment may be All men aro likely to be governed more or less by certain circumstances which may surround them or the sub. ject at tho time they nro called upon to act; then It matters not, if a repro tentative is actuated Uy tho promptings of an honest conviction of tho oorrect nes of bin conrso of policy, whether all shall approve of his courio or not. 'l'bo first object of a representative should In to provido for relief where niUcehas been dotu and to enact Jaws for" rcay and .qulck.adwhd- tratlon t V Jt9' . id tho redraw nl gnevancts.

Washington Corrtspoudenco. Washixoto.v,' Mny 4th, 1858., On last Friday, (April 30,) witness ed in both branches of Congress tho greatest triumph tho democracy havo ever known; Faction has beon over thrown. Tho black republican lead- is i . .t.i- -111-, itm JCnmtr ors, aiueu uy meir mii., -.." Nothliitfs nnd a few nntl-Lecompton democrats who hnvo kept tlio wnolo country embarrassed mid convulsed, from Its centre to lis circumference, who hnvo clogged tho wheels of gov ernment and delayed needful legisla tlon. havo been overwhelmed by i crushing vole. Tlio conciliatory nnd just bill reported by tho Commltteo of Conferenco on tho Kansas imbroglio was ndoptcd by tho decisive majority nf nine III both HollSCS. TIlO wholo country is rejoicing over tho result, nnd tho telegrnphlo wires from every qunr tor of tho Union bilng nows of tho fir Ing of cannon nnd every other demon sluitlon of delluht. All breathe froer and decpor. An imponding crisis whtcli might havo led to n dissolution of the Union Itself has passed away, novor, 1 trust, to again agitato tho country. Tho Administration of James Iluchan an stands as firm nnd looms up to the gnzo of nu ndmlrlng world its your own rocky mountnlnr, nnd tho President will now havo nn opportunity of bring Ing forward and carrying out his great dcslgna for tho glory, honor raid pros perity of our peoplo. Among tho measures which tjio Pro sldent has nt heart nnd which, now that tho Knnsas question is settled, ho will recommond to Congress will bo Iho ac quisition of Cuba, tho hoy to our South em coast, by pttrchnso from Spain ; the nurclinso from Mexico of such portions of hor territory ns will bo requisllo for tlio shortest uvorlnnu routo to tho Paci fic, and tho enforcement of tho de mands of Amoilcan citizens against foreign nations which havo been too long permitted In remain unsatisfied. This is hut n slight foreshadowing of the policy tlio .'resident intends to pursue It is believed horo thnt Senator Douglass will be defeated for re-election to tho Senoto in the approaching election in his Stato. Had Mr. Doug loss camo in nnd given Ida assent, (which I think ho could havo dono without great saorifico of his position,) I to mo report ot tlio unuleronco Uom niltteu ho would havo been welcomed and received back by tho party, but tho gulf is now impassable. As ono of Iho ablest men in tho Sonato, the position ho has placed himself in Is re gn riled with regret by nil his former political associates. I understand that tho most vigorous policy will bo pursued in removing from uliico all thoso who have exerted llieni selves In opposition to tho odmluiitra tlon. Tho President is determined that only Ihoaii who stood by him and tho country in tho lato crisis, when noblu hearted domocrats from nil quarters camo to tho rescue, shall be ontrustedj with oflicc, and in furtherance of this design 1 know that Senator Gwin and! Hon. C. L. Scott mako all tlio appoint ments for California upon their guar-1 fltltlHl flint till. nmiltAntita lllll-n linan ' right on the Kansas Imbroglio. Tho President has appointed Judgo Lortng, of Uoston, one of the Judges of thu Court nf Claims In tho place of JiicJl'o Gilchrist, doceased. This Is n just trlbuto to distinguished lecnl merit. aim is n rebuke to the fanaticism of .Massachusetts in removing him from nfiice for doing hlsduty ns U. S. Com nilsioner in tho Hums fugitive slnve case, when a cowardly, fanatical mob, took tho life of the deputy marshal. Iho Commllteo on Nnvnl Affairs! will probably ogroB to report the build ing of five aorow steam kluotis of wnr. drawing not moro thnn fourteen feet, which aro for service on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. I'ho Yrisarri Nioaracuan troutv has been concurred in bv Nicaragua nnd is now before the Senoto for confirma tion. It will meet with groat opposi tion from many democratic Senators even if it is not defeated, as it is said that corrupt practices were usod to get it in such a shapo as to favor an odious monopoly, 'iliero is no doubt that partUs interested in the Vnnderbiltlhie of steamers havo spoilt largo sums of money.

Editor Sentinel Dear Sirttv nn nrtlclo in tho Statesman of tK6 18th inst. purporting to havo been written by Lucicn Heath, of Dallas, PolkiCo dated May 12, 1858. The article sc'ts out by saying "A. Bush Sir: Thero nro in clr- i culolion slnndorous reports rdatlvo to inyscit, which nro oase nnauniounucu 1 wns Informed by a gentlomnn of Jnck souvllle thnt Col. Ford, of this county, related to him tho base slander, which is being circulated freely in this coun ty," A:c. I will stato briefly what I said to I.. F. Dowell, tho gentleman of Jnckson villo alluded to, nnd I am safo in say ing that Mr. Dowell will bear me out in my stntcment. I said to Mr. Dowtll (I believe nt my own houso,) that Mr. C. D. Gmbrco's daughter, who is in her Mth year, stated that whilo zlio was boarding, nt Mr. Heath's, going to school Ht Dallas, a black girl some 10 years old was working fur Mr. Heath's family, nnd that ono night Mrs. Heath nut Mr. Heath, ns he would try to mako out his case told her that tho Would havo to sleep with tho negro girl or In a small bed with tho children. Tho young lady very naturally ugrecd to sleep with tho children. Tho nbovo Is substantially tlio con versation I had with Mr. Dowell. The conversation between us grew out of; somo remarks or the statesman nbout tho Nationals being of tho negro-equality party. I referred to Heath's case for thu purpose of showing to Dowell, or any others it might concern, that the Rush ticket for Stato o&cer, or n part of them, might with us much pro prioty bo called tho negrocqunlity tick et ns any other pnity. I also sco Mr, C. D. Embrcc'e cer tificate nppouded to Hcuth's article Now, I must savin lustico to Mr. Em- bree, that ho cortalnly wns deceived mid did not know Iho trick laid by Heath and his man Ilabcock, who was sunt bv Heath to Kmbrec. To show that Lmbreo was deceived, 1 will state that his ccrtiflcato wns signed May 12th; on Friday evening, May 17th, I wns lit his house, and In tho nrnuimH of himself nnd wlfo. Dr. llovlo nnd myself, his dnughter mado tho nbovo' statement, nnd further ndded thai wl.llo1 tho negro girl wns ut Heath's, alio oat ' nt the samo tab o and at tin-anmn Hmr. with his family. Now. I hnvo no idea that Heath over heard that Embreo's daughter or any ono elso stated the he ((loath) tried to ooorco or attempted to cocrco her to sloep with n negro wo man until he or jomo of his "strikers" started tho report fur tho purpose of raising tho cry of "poraocullon," I novor heard such n report, until nfter Heath returned homo from the South, which wns about tho 1st of May. Mr. Heath heard tho report that Embreo's daughter stated that Mrs. Heath wished her to sleep with the black girl or tho children, last Fall or Whiter, for he acknowledged to Mr. C. D. Embreo nnd 1'. J. Hater, Embreo's sou in law, (hat his wife had made the proposition to tho girl, but said she wns jesting wllli her. I think it prnbnblo thnt Mrs. Hentli wns jesting; but if she was, thoro wns n reality and somo soctabill ly in Heath nnd family sitting down wltti tlio negro woman nnd enting nt tho ssmo tablo. I should not havo writton n line on this disngreeablosub ject if Heath had not tried to placomc in a false position by Embreo's certifi cate, If Mr. Heath desires it, I can substantiate what I have stated by un doubted evidence.
