The wound is pro nounced mortal. Broderick did not speak af ter tho rencontre. SECOND-mlrATGil. Saw Fbancisco, 10 A. M. Tho ball lodged In Broderlck's chest, and bo is bleeding profusely inwardly. He is expect ed In town soon. Montgomery and Merchant streets oro filled with people, nnd the cx?ltc- ment is Intense. There is a report In town that Broderlck's surgeons do not consider the wound mortal, but this is mere rumor: Auction or t, journal. In doing this, we shall be brrf, wcn knowing that It js more .u7!.V actual ptrformsneo of pledges than from tho mero pledges given, a newspaper will Invite and reecho tho support necessary to its existence. Wo will say, however, that what ever promises are herein given, we intend most rsiurcdty to mako good, and to do as much bit tcr as ability permits. Tho Sintimix shall be devoted chiefly to promoting tho prosperity and interests of Southern Oregon, nnd while wo shall aver labor cheerfully towards the accompllihmtnt of any benefit to tho pcoplo or tho Slate at Urge, which it may be within our efforts to effect, nt shall consider that our services are first doe to the peopls of tbls division or the State. We shall at all times bo ready to lend onr aid to projects and enterprises having in view thi belter development of the rich re sources which a bounteons nature has so lav ishly bestowid upon this region, iml duly chron icle the good fruits which may result from the indastry and energy of our people intelll pence of which may be calculated to attract attcnlicn to us from beyond our borders, nnd invite lillhir the immigration of industrial c!cs which the counlry so much needs. Wo shall advocate Democratic principles, and fclthMly cling to tho time-honored tenets tndiiiagcs of the Democrats ptrty of (ha Union. In our adTOtacy or doctrines, we pre fer to deal with acknowledged facts and fair arguments, ratherKlhon to havo recount) to qncstlonabk authorities, supported by soph iwns tnd tlwe-iwrvlng interpretations or the faith. Tho Bt.smii. shall not become tho organ nor advocato of any section, faction, nor mn nithln tho party, but will ever bo found battling for whomsoever the Democracy shall deli&ht to honor by nomination and elec tion to office, let tbo attack upon such as are thus selected, come from whatever quarter it may. We shall strlvo to promulgate tho Dem ocratic croed as it was handed down from Jef ferson, oxpounded and prscliscd by Mudison, Jackson, and other dlstinguUhed Democratic statesmen and sages, up to the prcsuitday. While we rejsct much that is sought to bo engrafted upon tho parent stock in later days, wo shall never fill to rccognlio and endorse th it which may enianato from pure sources, nnd which tuoll.ccme to us unadulterated, free from tbo dross of personal ambition, of strife for rurtizan ascendency, and unmixed with dc- ilro for power. We shall further endeavor to mako the Sex Tisia. a welcome messenger or news to every household, nnd with all classes or onr people, by filling Its columns with desirable and varied original and selected matter. The news de partment will contain tho latest intelligence which liberal expenditure and individual en tcrprirc can bo jnado to furnish. We bopo soon to complete arrangements which will cna b!o us to lay bere our readers Slates and California news of conjiderably later dates than has heretofore been given, Immediately following tho arrival or the ocean steamers and owrlaud malls nt San Francisco. We especially Invito tho attention of mer chants, dealers, tradesmen and business men of every class, to tho Sjwtiniu Being tho only paper in Southern Oregon, it has superior ad vantages as an advertising medium for them, and with its already largo circulation, which we trust materially to aegment, tbtro is no paper within the Stato so well calculated to givo satiifaction to adrertlsers whoso interests aro nt all connected with tho trade, growth and iture welfare or Southern Oregon. Each Is sue will contain a careru!ly prepared leview or the home markets, with quotations from the nurkets elsewhere, which in any way affect our own. Attention will be paid likewise to the election or valuable agricultural intelli gence for each number, frons standard public. Kous and such otW sources as we cau place on lor contribution. All In all, we intend to inil( the Suacm. a paper to be sought and 'li iil by ccry icrson who desires to eacour-b,-i lb a iptcles of enterprise. bor. Situated directly In the great highway between California and Upper Oregon, over which tlicro is a largo amount of travel, and which is constantly Increasing, wo nro cut off with n mere weekly service from both Iheso great points. Instead of this, (here should be nt least trl-wcckly communication with San Francisco, and other or the chief cities of Cal ifornia, and semi-weekly communication with Northern Oregon. As it Is, wo arc almost solely dependent upon tho Express Companies fur the receipt or letters and news, -from Cali fornia, both by way of Yreka and Crescent Cily, but arc deprived of thlsTaclllty with our northern neighbors. Then again, tho service between tho various settlements within tht County, and with ILo immediate neighboring Counties or Josephine and Douglas, as well as through them likewuo, is very Imperfect and Irregular. Whlto speaking or this matter, it is well to add that within the past month, Col. J. D. Fry, the Postal Agent for California, Oregon, and Washington Territory, has mado n com plete official tour through the whole northern country, and thence through Southern Oregon to California. On this tour, Col. Fry has thoroughly informed himself in all matters pertaining to his office, and is well aware how essential a reformation and correction or exis ting obuces and disabilities is to our peoplo. That he will at the cirllcst day forward to tho Department a statement or what ho has expe rienced, together with a pressing recommenda tion in our behalf, we reel confident, from past knowledge or his official courrc. Such a re commendation, added to tho efforts of our Sena tor and Representative, should not, cannot, wo think, fall to secure for us the mall facilities required. Our Slato is certainly entitled to thus much consideration at the hands of the National Government, and it will bo difficult to induco tho people to believe, that with proper euergy, application and a fair presenta tion of our claims by those whose duty it is to serve us, this important and just demand will bo denied. For Wasiiinutom. Wo learn that Gen. I line, Hon. Laming Stout, and Gov. Stevens, Delegate from Washington Territory ,will lake paewge Jn the mall steamer of Iho 5th October from San Franclwo for Washington. It is probable that Gen. Lane will pass through Jackson County on Lis nay to California. At last accounts, be was suffering from a painful swelling upon bis right baud. Siavro Itiaiir.

Tkax On Tuesday, BinghamVlargo four horse team, engaged In freighting between Jacksonville and Crescent City, made their appearauce duly caparisoned after the manner or the Pennsylvania Bell Teams. Tho bar nsss and forulshlug for this team was manu factured by Judgo & Emry, of this city, and is the first ever mude in this section. For strength, excellence or workmanship, and neat ness, it will favorably compare with tho work sent out from any harncu manufactory in the Union. The makers are prepared to receive and complcto orders for sim lar work, or for any other stjlo that their patrons may select. To thoso who wish to see a sample of Ihelr work, we commend an Inspect on or the bar. cess and accoutrements named above. LinoK Giovttii. Sir. John Swluden lias placed upon our tabic, two monster onions. grown nt his farm on Itogno Hirer. Tho lar gest of theso mighty fragrant vegetables Is about thirteen inches In circumference, and the other Is Just enough smaller for n person to perceive tho difforence. Both were raised from tho seed since March 25th or this year. They givo ttrong evidence or the productive ness or tbo soil thereabouts, and or Mr. Swe den's ability to cultivate it. False Alarm. At tho close or tho perfor mance by tho Drahmer troupo on Monday night, a cry offiro was mado by somebody. It proved a false alarm; probably originating from the sight of a crowd near by, collected about two pugnacious individuals vigorously engaged In tbo pleasant recreation of demol ishing each other's countenances, one of whom bad red balr ond plenty ol it. Tho fight ended as such amusements generally do somebody come offcecond best. ocrats, who will bo very much apt to believe, that it Is more owing to somo yet undeveloped personal motlvo than from diiintcrwird demo tion for tho people, ho has seen fit to enter tho arenn or public discussion nt tills Into day. low will discover any other result from this opening up or old scores ngnlnsl prominent Democrats, no matter what their opinion or them than that or Injury to tho party gener ally. It is a safo conclusion In most coses, that where n prominent public man, who has lived for years among a people, nnd whoso ov cry act and nltrlbtito Is known to them, is Charged with dereliction of duty or other short-comings, his best vindication is found in tho Judgment and estimation of his follow.cltl zens. In very imnorlant matters, it mav be desirable, even necessary for hlmselfto becomo the defender of his own fair fame, or of his public acts but Iheso are raro instances. Had Mr. Grorcr followed this snfo rule, nnd re mained content to await tho Judgment of tho Democracy upon whatever nllegnllons there havo been preferred ngnlmt him, we nro confi dent lie would pass tho ordeal (o his own satis faction, nnd perhaps havo saved hlmlf una his party a considerable amount or future agi tation, which can bo productive of no benefit to cither. Tho jwoplo do not want iiseiuiion upon the subject of the War Debt, for this might elicit from the "Ncwsom'i" throughout Iho counlrv. statements to our prejudice, similar to those published In tho N. V. 'Iribunt by that mal content citizen, which would he paraded, not because of Irulh, but merely from desire to batter down opponents in argument by any means. What wo want now, is aid, energy, influence, and assiduity, to procure tho pay ment of this just debt. Tho Kplu of Oregon through their Territorial Legislature declared tho necessity and Justice of the war ; the Com- mlssloncrs appointed by the Federal Govern ment havo solemnly ccrllficd to the corrcctn.ss or tho amount, and a Special Agent has since, after a. scrutinizing investigation Into the causes or tho AVnr and Iho honesty or tho Debt, endorsed tho fulthrulncss or tho renort or tho Commissioners. In this condition, then. tho tchcdulo or indebtedness claimed has gono to Washington, where it seems, through somo new system Introduced Into Iho practical wor kings of our government, lhat notwithstanding tho return made under oath by specially n pointed officers, our papers havo still to bo subjected to the frigid mercies orn mere clerk ly appointee, whoso knowledge ol the valua tion of labor and property on tho Pacific coast is just equal to his Impartiality and constdera Hon, as pitifully evidenced in his report. This report or the miserly, officious Third Auditor, our people can and will show, docs us great injustice And v,e would say to Mr. Grover, with the kindest of feelings, that if ho can aid in adducing nnd presenting proof to show how unjustly tho Third Auditor, or any others, who havo oppugned or may oppugn the cor rectness of tho 'War Debt, have acted towards us, by doing so, lie will receivo a heartier, more gratefol vindication or bisuamo nnd deeds than all tho speeches ho can make are likely to lusure him. so fuaC fie muj -ix prepared with evidence to support his just claim to the seat awarded him by tho State canvassers.

This being mndc known, the rnicnl was soundly whipped by tho lady's husband, and ordered to leave town forth. with. Tho order was scrunulouily obeyed. Connelly left Jacksonville yesterday morn ing lor W illlnmsbnrg, nnd we trast tho citizens there will soon rid their town or the follow' I presence. This is not his first flanrant offaim I njrnlnst good morals. Ho last year married tho daughter or Judgo Lancaster, formerly Dele gate from Washington Territory, and, we nro Informed, by his brutality obliged his wife to tatchlm. Tho graceless scamp should be driven from tho land. THIRD DISPATCH. San FnAK., 12-30 M. Broderick has arrived In town, and is at the residence of L. Haskell.

Wo copy the subjoined article from tho Tori- land Times or tho lOth Inst. Tho method pro posed for the consideration or the State Cen tral Committee In reference to ascertaining the choice ot tho Democracy of Oregon for Presi dential candidate. Is a novel one. wo think a good one, and certainly a fo!r one. It is from tho Democratic masses, and not from the polit ical leaders and managers the expression should come, nnd according to the method suggested, this expression would certainly obtuln. Or one thing wo feel assured, and this Is, that no can didate will be supported by the Oregon delega tion, without he Is known to positively favor tho early construction or thu Pacific Railroad. Tho matter of apportionment fairly adjusted, wo can see no good reason why the suggestion of the Timrj should not bo recommended br the Central Commlttco for adoption by the Democracy: In a rccenl Isjuo or Iho Twits, we expressed tho wish that the chotco or the majority or the democracy, or Oregon for nomination to the Presidency, should folrly be manifested at Uhiueston by our delegation to the National Convention. It not unfsvqucntly occurs, in Nulioiml as well as in Stato political Conven- lloilS, that tllO obvious tircforcnm nt llm in.. jority or the peoplo is either disregarded, or orn majority or tio delegates who nre selected under our caucus system. This Is oue or llio great evils or the caucus system, nnd for which It seems difficult to ap ply the projicr remedy. It sometimes, too, oc curs, In general elections, that the minority, under tho directions orndroit nnd experienced party leaders, thwart the alms or the majority, uml procure tho election of their favorite over tho clearly defined sentiment of tho masses. In the designation ol the choice of our Stato democracy for tho Presidency, we trust the Stale Commlttco will prudently devlw some means by which It can bo ncommpllshed, bo as to afford tho majority a clear road to tri umph lu this matter. It has been suggested to us that tt l In. advlsuble to instruct our delegates to Charles- u niv uimuio io appreciate wns non- 2d" Best Id" Best 2d" Heat 2d" Ilest 2d" 1 II M M l Suckling Colt, 7.00 Diploma 6,00 Diploma 3,00 Diploma Diploma Diploma Best 2d" Best 2d" Ilest 2d" Ilest Brood Mare 4 rrnmolil nnd nnwanli in.no 2d" " " " " " Dlnloma 3 " " " " 7,00 " " Diploma 2 year old filly, fi.00 " " " " Diploma 1 " " ' 3,00 " " " " Diploma CLASS SnCOND.
