In tho Senate, 31 r. Trumbull has in

Congress to determine what govern

until nfter their election. Ho is ono of
the rising men of tho l'aulllo. Ho won
for himself it national reputation iu tho
last fall canvais in California. As soon
as he arrived here, ho was invited bv
th IVniruf fteptiOffe.in Omnidir of
Now Hampshire t canvass their Statu
and. she never was asked to pay but 'a
fow thousand dollars' for tho serriew
ol two companies ; but this is as truo
as Hecson ntul Wool's reports about
tho origin nnd prosecution of tho war
of 1805-0. I bcliovo General Wool
was never in but ono corner ot Oregon,
and only thcro onco during tho war.
Tho resolution of tho Methodist Con
ference of Oregon, which met nt Salem
during the wnr, is nn appropriate reply
to tho villainous charge ot Wool, that
Governor Curry and his coadjutors
mndo wnr on tho .Indians without the
slightest jusllllcntion. Tho resolution
is iu these words:
"Whereas, our Territories havo been
the theater ot a disastrous Indian war
during tho past year; and whereas an
impression has, by sotnd means, been
made abroad that the people ql Ore
gon and Washington have acted an
unworthy part in bringing it on:
Therefore,
"Jleiotvtd, That though there may
havo Won occasional Individual lnstaa
ccs olllltrcatnitnt ot tho Fnillansby irre
sponsible whites, It is tho oonvtetlon of
this body of ministers whoso fields of la
bor have been in all parts ol theTerrlto
rics, nnd during tho continuance of tho
war, that the war has not been wan
tonly nnd wickwdly provoked by our
fellow-citizens, but that it has been em
phatically a war of defenso, nnd that
thnt defense wns deferred as long as
Christian forbearance would warrant."
An Ankcpotk oh Mu. Lincoln.
In a ccrtniti caso in court, Mr. Lincoln
hnd for his legal opponent n lawyer
whoso excellent character, thorough
knowledge of law, nnd superior logic
combined to exert a controllng influ
ence over the jury. This lawyer (whom
wo will call Judge Jones) had made his
speech, nnd n most nblu speech it was.
It was necessary in somo way to dissi
pate Its Impression. Air. Lincoln, in
reply, opened his speech substantially
ns follows: "May It pleaso the court

eral John K. Wool has writcn tho fol
letter to Father Hcesoii lolutivo to thu
Oregon Indian war claims of 1831,
which havo recently boon presented to
Cougtess for payment, amounting to
about three million dollars, in addition
to tbrco million dollars which havo al
ready been paid :
Tuov, Feb. 20, IHOH.Deur tin
Your favor of tho 23d instant was re
ceived by mo this morning relative to
Oregon claims for Indian outrages.
Tho Oregouiaus havo uo just clulms for
outrages committed by Indians, They
havo already received from tho United
States five times as much ns they woiu
entitled to for tho outrages which they
committed upon tho Indians, which
wuro tho causes of tho war,
If you or any oua elso dcslro to (cam
tho cause of tho war Iu Oregon, I could
refer you to the report of Col, Cram,
railed for by Judgo Olln (residing in
Washington) when ho was in Congress,

ports published in tho Kcuato doe. No.
10, 33d Congress, and 35th Cougrcss,
Houso of Representatives, doe. 88.
In conclusion, I havo only to say that
tho war was caused on tho part of Gov.
Curry and his coadjutors, without tho
slightest justification, and, was reported
at tho time, to enrjeh tho whjtcs and
make political capital for tho Gover
nor. Yours, very respectfully,.
