8ATUMAV EVEXIXB, - SEPT, 13, 1863,
Tub Kkntuckt Emotion. Those who read
and believe thu writings or iho copperhead
editors on tills const, must bu In a muddle
of doubt and nncurlalnty as to Iho result of
f he election In Kentucky. Tho Marjwville
Fxprtu (acknowledged to Iks tho chief organ
of Coppcrhend Di'inocrncy on this coast)
nays tho " Union" ticket, with Drnmlctte
for Governor, is an Abolition triumph, and
was secured by the pretention, by "crea
tures of tho Administration," ol a ''full
and free exercise of the elective francnlsc."
Charles A. Wickiiffr. for Governor, bend
ml the Copperhead Democratic ticket, and
ihu Erprm labors to show that tyrannical
orders and test-oaths, dictated by tho mili
tary Commandant of that Department, de
terred Democrats from voting, and insured
tt defeat of the Democracy and an Aboli
tion triumph. So much for the opinion of
thechiof Confederal organ.
Tho litvitw gives its Long Tom readers a
diverse opinion. It acknowledges that the
Democracy of Kentucky was defeated, but
averts that the election of tho Union ticket
was not an Abolition triumph. Tho Rtvitw
has mid that a "war Democrat is an Alwli
tionist of the most radical and destructive
kind." and it would, therefore, have its
roadvrs believe that tho people of Kentucky
nro opposed to the war. Tho result, then,
according to tho Review, Is a defeat of the
Democratic party, but a triumph of a Dem
ocratic principle. SagcJfciwu! That is in
deed the way truo Democratic principles
triumph in tbeso latter days by defeating
Copperhead tickets; but your darliug
Confederacy will never be establish
ed by such triumphes as that gained by the
Union men of Kcutucky, at their last gen
eral election.
Hut It was loft for tbolearncd(l) and truth
fnl(l) Arkansaw Confederate In this placo
to decide tho disputed point positively, in
the following language : " Tho great issuo
in Kentucky was the same as it is in Ore
goti aud in California," and rays that the
' Democracy" of Kentucky elected Dram
lette I How then docs it happen that both
the Eipr&t and the Review tell us that
Charles A. Wlckllfle was the regular nomi
nee of the Democracy ? I'nrslbly they were
mistaken, and fall in with tho views of the
old Arkansaw anti-war horse.
Thu truth is, the Governor-elect of Ken
was nominated by a Convention composed
of unconditional Union men of all parties.
Thoy declared themselves in favor of a vlg
orous prosecution or too war so long ai
there could bo found a rebel in arms. They
wont into tho canvass as the Union-Administration
party, and, as such, routed tho
rogular Copperhead party, of which Charles
A. WicklilTe was the candidate for Govern
or. Tho Confederate organ in this place
might, with full as much propriety, claim
the result of the California election as a
" Democratic" triumph, as to cluira Dram
lotto, a Federal official up to tho date of his
uomluntlon, ai a " Democratic" Governor.

SAtiK.lPgn;VAtigittt'20. 1863.
Dear' Sir. Your of llth Inst., is re-
co'ved to-dny, and I hastrn to answer.
Some time ago I was much surprised on
learning that it was reported that I had
said, In n private conversation. Ihnt lr I
were In Ohio I would vote for Vollandigham
lor Governor. I disapprove or his whole
courco since the opening of tho rebellion,
and on all occasions when speaking of it.
and In the conversation referred to, ex
pressed my disapprobation, nnd uually in
strong terms. Ono gentleman taking part
in that conversation said he would, if in
Ohio, vote Tor Mr. V.. and I just as distinct
ly said Itcould not) but I admitted that if
1 were called upon to tote for him, or an
extreme Almlltionlst, who would prosecute
the war against the seceded States after
thev were willing to return to their duty
miller tho Constitution, to compel tho abo
lition of slavery, t would prefer Vallandlg
ham. And further said "Because, if he
were Governor of Ohio, he would bo com
polled to pursue nearly tho samo course as
iho present Governor of New York, and
would be in favor or allowing thoo Stales
to return ami control their own domestic
policy under tho Constitution of tho United
States; and that I believed they could Ik
compelled or coerced, If you please to
return upon that condition, and the whole
country restored to peace and harmony.
Dut If the extreme abolition policy prevail
ed. I saw no prospect of pence until (he
wholo of the seceded States should bo sub
jected to mllltnry despotism, If lhatwero pos
sum, winch "-mi Ni in all proimumty over
throw the Federal Government and estab
lish itself over tho wholo oounlry. Such
was Hie conversation, and so it was under
stood nnd reported by those who heard it.
nnd there is nothing in it I desire to change
or miiuiiy.
Contrary to my expectation, it
crew lest and les in volume, and greater in
significance, until it comes down to lit taid
if in Ohio he would tot e for VulUmdinham.
That a necessity for choosing between
him or nn almlltionlst will ever occur, is so
improbable that my preference for one or
tho other nmounts to nothing, nnd would
not havo been repented hero had it not
been necessary to snow tho origin of tho re
port that I was in favor of Mr. V.'s election.
His nrre.it, imprisonment and banishment
I do not approve, because I believe lie lind
made all Ihe argument in favor of his or
roneoun view that he could mnkc, nnd they
had been printed and widely scattered over
the country, nnd rend by nil those who
chose to rend them. His banishment could
not stay the force of his reasoning, or turn
the point of his sarcasm, nor could it des
troy his personal Influence. Tho peculiar
and objectionable time and manner of his
arrest, und the novel character of his sen
tence, called forth tho utmost activity of
his friends In his defence. Justification di
rected public attention to him, and caused
all lie I. ml said to bo read anil repeated,
with all the curiosity which martyrdom
awakens, and made a new side issuo between
the Administration and its opponents, upon
the rights of citizens in loyal States to per
sonal liberty, a subject upon which tho peo
ple are always jiutly sensitive, nnd a right
which they will not allow Infringed with
out resentment; and thereby I believe tho
Government has been weakened inoro than
it could havo been done by all the pence
speeches that be could havo made. Yet
while I do not approve of that and somo
other acts of the Administration, I believe
that the President is honestly endeavoring
to suppress rebellion and preserve the Union,
under tho Constitution. In his efforts for
that purpose, ho shall have my earnest sup
port, and in giving it I shall not stop to
lind fault with plight or fancied ctrnrs, in
such n way ai to render the little support
I am able to give, embitrn&ring.
While bo is constitutionally President, he
must bo obeyed and supported in the exer
cise of his constitutional authority. When
ho cannot be, thu lost aud best of the great
Republican Governments will have failed.
I am truly yours, D. F. Hakdi.nu.
Hon. A. G. Iienry, Olympia, W. T.
Tho abovo letter will reassure all who
may have doubted that Mr. Harding is a
truo Union man, but we do not think his
friends generally will be pleased at his dis
approval of the arrest of Vallandigham.
We believo that, while that deserved arrest
may, p?rbaps, give tho " Democratic" tick
et a few more votes in Ohio, tho country
will bo recompensed a thousand fold by the
assurance it has given our patriot soldiers,
that undoubted trnltors will not bo permit
ted to cripple their efforts, and orpaulz') a
foe in their rear to cheat them of tho fruits
of their labors. To our armies muit we
look for tho preservation of thu Union, aud
varieties of tobacco.
when they protest at the arrest it will bo
time enough for civilians to cuter their com
plaints. On the 4th inst., at Umutilla Lunding.tt
gambler named Harris, shot and killed
John Ronipondolpb, They wcro playing
card?, und Harriu became so enraged at the
loss ol $800 that he deliberately shot his
victim. Rompondolph was a resident of
the Dulles, where he leaves a wife and three
children. No arrest bad been made up to
the 5th.

Mr. 0. G. Birdsoye, well known as one
of those " good men -who can keep a ho

has taken charge, of the Dennison House,
at. Portland.
Takiko thb Oath.A Portland corres
pondent to the S. F. Bulletin, reports the
ollowlng: ,,
, "An old hard shell. T)emnrat, teaming
lhat the paletjitifot his land .bad .'arrived at
the land office, and thit he Would bo re
quired to taXe the oath of, ilJsgla'nce, before
ho could claim It. declared tfirJt it might
rust in tho land offleo. that he would never
be coerced. However, after a timrvlno old
mnn took counsel of his worldly wisdom, and
rrainir to tho office. " kissed the Hook" nnd
received his parchment. Upon his return
home, his; nelyhbors. curious. loo hear the
result, gathered round htm. nnd soon learn
ed that he had takn the 'Lincoln oath.'
Thereupon somo of tho jocose nmong llwm
began to taunt him with backing down,
getting weak kneed, etc. The old man lis
tened to them awhile, nnd then exclaimed,
wilh nn nlr of triumph, 'Of course I took
Ihn oatbt I hope vou don't think I couldn't
tako it. Wliv. tlmt thero Abolition Lin
coln government ain't smart enough to get
up nn oath that 1 can't take."
We know of a persistent office-seeking
eopppcrhend in Jacksonville, who for some
days was alternately cowed nnd threatened
by his friends and creditors, before he would
consent to tako the "Lincoln oath," that ho
might sccuro ft considerable sum in war
scrip. Erom his subsequent conduct we
should judgo that he docs not consider tho
oath in any sense binding upon him.

following call, published in the Sulem pa

nent men of the State, nmong them thu
names B. F. Do well, J. Gaston und E. F.
Russell, Esqrs., of this place :
In thi? view of the numernui nnd great
victories recently uchieved by our bruvo

country, nnd In view of the fuel that much
yet remains to be done before the Union

efforts to crush out finally nnd forever the
present wieked rebellion, restore nnd pre
serve the Union, re-eslnblish our free Gov
ernment in the States now in rebellion, and
enforce the constitution nod laws nf the
United States throughout our entire coun
try, North nnd South, nre requested to
meet in Salem on the evening of Wednes
day, the 16ih of September, 1863, to par
ticipate in n Grand Mass Meeting and
Union Demonstration.
Hkavt on TiiKM.-The Dalles Mountaineer,
in the following paragraph, bits a class nf
people infesting the north Pacific coast u
heavy lick, but n deserved one :
" Why is it that till tho black legs, road
agents, cut-throats, horse-thieves, renegndes,
pimps, und scoundrels of the country nre
n vowed secessionists? It is a remarkable
fact that every worthies vngnhnnd, of the
entire land, is n fast friend of King Ji ft,
nnd in sympathy with the rebellion. To
bo n secessionist is to be everything that is
is mean, and low, and degrading, nod
vile. The moment a man becomes n cop
perhead he feels licensed to all manner of
crimes, and willingly stoops to the lowest
indecencies. Not only nre constitutions
and free governments in danger, when cop
perheads are nround, but properly, nnd
character, nnd life, nre in .jeopardy. Our
advice to loyal men is, whenever one nf
these creatures is known to ho nround.
draw tight the purse strings, Inek tight the
chicken coop, nnd guard well thu stable
door, for they will steal sure."
Coppun. Dut a few years sinco Dol Norte
county was thought to bo on tho vcrgo of
bankruptcy. Now she has within her bor
ders upper ledges that are estimated to bo
worth millions of dollars About twenty
companies are nt work taking out copper
ore in considerable quantities. Every wag
on that goes from this placo to Crescent
city for goods stops nt tho mines nnd takes
on a load of copper, nnd, wo understand
quite n number of teams are exclusively en
gaged in hauling copper. Wc received from
Mr A Roberts, a eich specimen of oro taken
from what is supposed to bo a perfect lodo
in tbcRockland District.
The peoplo there nro already beginning
to feel tho benefits of their copper
mines. Real estates has gone up, and busi
