J. S. Itinear 'son ti,kes the portfolio from Sheriff Burns Mr. Frazi-r is installed as Clerk, and the whole Union ticket in Oregon is elected, we shull attend to that. The Conservative convention of Virginia, which assembled at Rich mond lately, V4S composed largely of the old political leaders of the State. Hon. A. II. Stewart was male president, and among the vice. . presidents eye re 11. M. T. Hunter, '1 Iwmiii? S. Bocoik, and cx Gover. nor Letcher. The object of this body was to protest against there construction measures of Congress, and especially against negro suffrage. qMt. Stewart in his speech, on taking the chair, said: "Our rights may be wrested liotn us,- but we will never ngree to the rule of an alien and itxferior race; we prefer the rule d the bayonet.'' lie did not, however, explain how the whiles, who are in q' the viajoriiy, are to be subjugated by the negroes. Tvho tire in the mi t.ority, by the rr.ei fact of the lat ter, possessing the right of suffrage. The discission in the Senate on the supplementary reconstruction bill elicited smug unanswerable argu ments in support of the Congresion al policy of reconstruction. The speech of Senator Fr. linghuy sen was a very powerful and eiT-ctive viT.'ft. lie exhibited in a strong light the tffioniery of the Executive in pronouncing unconstitutional, nets of Congress passed over his velo by the 8)nsi'ituti.!,al majority; discussed with great clearness and force the relations of the Sla'c to tie general Government as i.fT-ctcd by rebellion; vigorously cotnb.itted the c'!m lo political power set up f. r the Supreme Couit by those who hope for Copperhead decisions from that hi;ih ti iUinml, ami defended wilh much feeling and eloquence the threat measure of enfranchisement bv which the four million em unci pa ted people f the South have been invested wit the full rights of men. The debate on liiis bill has at least demonstrated that, whether or not the Congrefsion ul plan is all that could be desired, thw theory of the President is so utterly untenable and so palpably at variance with the Constitution, of which he has prnted so much, that it is astonishing to see it su-tamed by any man hav the si !ilttst ieg.ir.1 fr his I'eiMita lion as a SrtuUsiiuui, a lawyer, or u KgtC!aQ. DEJKK UA.TIC PUTPUM. ADOPTED BY THE . DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVEX-, TlOX OF OtttGOS, MAfiCU iy, lSlJS. VllU Biler Explanatory Xotec jiesoccea, in.-.t we renew our pledge of adherence and unswerving fi ebty to the time-honored principles' of the Democratic parly. The " time-honored principles, '' in cludf, of course, the di g tia of State rights, the excuse for which was pre tended to be found in the Virginia rid Kntuky ri-tdut ions, which Democratic conventions have endors ed ever sinc. They appeared new about seventy years ago. As this dogma of State rights, culminated in treason and a murderous rebellion, costing ti3 some billions of dollars, the lives of some hundreds of thou sands of brave men, Democratic pol iticians are perhaps excusable forgo ing back on the whole thing, by call ing it simply " time-honored prin ciples." Resolved, That the Federal Gov ernment is rue of limited powers, granted by the States in a written Constitution, which is the sole meas ure of its authority in war and in peace, and is alike Jaw for the ruler and people. Tins resolution U 5 Buncombe." Or in other words, it is in so general term", that anybody can agree or dis agree as to what it means, nnd it sounds well, besides. " The Federal Government isoneof limited oowers." Certainly if the Federal Govern ment should attempt to change the " Order of t he seasons,'' so that we could all have Ice Cream on the 4th of July, the thing miht be in itself desirable and popular, but it would of course be unconstitutional; in short the thing could'ut he did. '-Limited powers, granted by the States, in a written Constitution, which is the sole measure of its authority in war and in peace." As Iron clads and Emancipation, are not included in the granted powers, of course they are unconstitutional, and for them and many other outrages up"n the reserv ed rights of the Southern States, in the late unconstitutional tear, of course the Federal Government will make ample apology, and com pensation, as soon as the Democrats come in power. Ii .-solve j. That this Union under the Constitution is the only solid foundation of our strength and pros perity as a people, tonally condu cive to the welt.ii'eof ail the Slates, both North and South. This is LTiion Thunder, and is stolen of course, as professional Dem ocrats have not been known to have anything of the kind, for several years. Htsolved, That the Constitution of the United States confers no power on Congress to legislate upon the in teinal a flairs of the Slates composing the Union. Tins is the smallest dodge in the whole list of resolutions. State rights and the rebellion, are here en dorsed in the most innocent and unpretending manner. The idea is stolen from false Buchanan's last message, and by an adroit change of expression is sugar coated for the purpose of coirellit.g votes. Hear Buchanan, in 1SG(), just us the thun ders of the rebellion were bursting over the land. " The qnes'ion fiirly stated, is, has the Constitution dele gated to Congress the power to coerce into submission a State which is at. tempting to withdraw, or has actually withdrawn from the Confederacy? After much sincere ri flection, 1 have arrived at the conclusion that no such power has been delegated to Congress, or to any other department of the Government." Joe Lane was big with this idea, when as a Senator of the United States, he proposed to go down and allow the troops of his Government to walk over his dead body, in case they concluded to make a breach in the sacred internal affairs of States m rebellion, by com pressing their boundaries. Afterwards he repented so fir as not to go him self, but sent his son John. It will bf remembered that Mar) land and Kentucky blustered a great deal, making this very claim of the sacred character of their internal affair, soil included, which they arrogantly said National troops should not pass over. This resolution, stripped of all disgni-es, is a bit of bald faced treason, in theory. L'esnv"d, That it is the bight st duty of every American ci'iz n to m iintai'i against all their enemies the obligations of the Constitution and the integi if v of the Union under it. I- more stoh-n Union thunder; and if it had been published in any plat form of Union principles, by a Union Convention, since t tie nbellion broke out, would have been as much at tiorne, at it was the honest sentiment of all, I nit Democrats, in the nation, during the rebellion and war. But we inust reserve the remainder of the platform for another notice. Jerry Click has given another opinion "upoi the powers of the Pres ideut." If J,,huson does not find a premature grave, und.-r the libations of bis mat. J.rry and whiskey, it will p.yrprhc nil nations. PUBLIC SPEAKING IX OBEGOX CI1Y. Our Court House was densely pac ed on Tuesday afternoon, when the champions Hon. David Logan, and Rev. Joseph Smith, met to discuss the political principles which solately con vulsed our nation in war, and which yet disturb the body politic with rum bling echoes, betraying a spirit of anarchy and rebellion, scarcely tamed to peace. We have not time nor space to characterize the speeches, as we could wish, for we are fully satisfied that if they could both be spread broadcast over the land, and rrad impartially by all classes, the fleet would be ujosi salutary to the Union cause. Joseph Smith, led off for an hour and a half, mostly of railing nt the ne gro, for being black, for getting his freedom, (this is the real crime of ne gro equality,) and for wanting protec tion to life and liberty. The impu dence cf it. The Reverend Joseph, evidently takes an entirely Egyptian view of the escaped bondmen, which he will have time to repent heartily, before he touches bo'.lom as an AT. C. In other words he will have to run faster than he is reported to have done on a form er occasion, to keep in sight of Dave Logan. Our nominee for Congress did ad mirably, and so successfully demolish ed the flimy sophistries of his op ponent, as to make Union men look as cheerf-l as they did when the glori ous tidings came that Richmond had fallen while the Democrats wore, as then, a lugubrious expression of dis contented woe. In the evening, the Oregon City Brass Bmd serenaded our candidate, anil altogether the occasion of the speaking infused new life and energy into the pulses of tTie tried Union men. who have resolved never to lay aside their arms, until the battle of princi ple's, no less than the contest of brute force, is decided for the right, and the final triumph won ! The Prince of LrAR3. A corres pondent a-ks: ,k Who isis the Prince of Liars ?" It would indeed be a hard question to answer, at this time. The epithet was applied to Ferdinand Mendz Pmto.a celebrated Portugese traveler of the lGth century. lie pub fished an account of his travel-, full of extravagant fictions, wh eh caused l.im to be classed with Sir J. h:i Mande ville and Munchausen. There can be not a doubt but that the Prince of modern liars is somewhere in the Democratic party. He will come to the surface soon. Joseph, we should judge, resembles Ferdiimni son ewhut in personal appearance, and when he has done reining his acco nts of travels in the 19th century, if what we have heard be a specimen, will no doubt be entitled to the epithet. A Gkeat Displacement of At MosniEUE. We are informed that Culchas has worked himself into such a rage that he has decided thnt it is necessary, in order to get rid of the remaining moral-filth thai has ac cumulated in his disordered brain, to take the stump infavor of the Jeff. Davis doctrine. We would advise the Copperheads to provide him a sound stump, as his ponderous frame might otherwise mash it down: and it would be a pity to have so weighty a friend of Jiff, splashed out ly a fall from a Copperhead stump. The Webfoot os his Travels. Joseph tells of how horror riz up in him, like a mushroom, on visiting a Radical meeting at Richmond, on his travels. He says a negro presided, a negro was Secretary, and negroes addressed the meeting. Why does he not tell the whole truth about that horrid sight, which has so dis eased his imagination 1 Why does he keep it from the public that that meeting was called by negroes, and for negroes only, and that Jo. Smit1! and one other Webfoot were the onl v w htte men in it ? Will be There. We acknowl edge the receipt of an invitation, by order of the board of Directors of the Oregon Central Railroad Co . to be present at the breaking of ground for the ''Great Eastern Railway," as tin opponents of this company term it, which will take place at East Port laud on Tuursday next, nt 1 1 o'clock a.

Oregon'. ) April 7th, 1S6S. j Ed. Enterprisb : The Uniori Club cf Marquam precinct effected a permanent organization on Saturday, the 4th hist, by electing M. Pat terson. President, A. Marquam. Vice Presi dent, I. W. Garrett, Secretary. Frank Cooper, Assistant Secretary and Thomas James, Treasurer. After the organization was effected. Gov. Gibb3 was introduced to the large audi ence of ladies and gentlemen who bad assembled to hear him. and delivered a speech which was replete with good sense, stubborn facts, and sound logic ; com pletely vindicating the Union party from the charges preferred against it, and show ing up, in a masterly manner, the treach erous character, treasonable history, and ignominious future of the democratic party. After the Governor concluded his speech Wm. Heed of Portland came forward and took the stand, and was introduced to the audience by the President of the Union club. lie got off rather slow at first, which may be attributed to the fact that an over whelming majority of the audience were opposed to him, and that lie knew if Dem ocratic strategy should be resorted lo he would be left without an audience, and compelled to speak to an empty house : but when he discovered that Union men were not afraid to hear him. and that he would neither be deserted nor mobbed, he became reassured, and branched out in pretty good democratic style. Mr. Heed is a man of some talent, but he has a very treacherous memory ; and judg from his speech he has been er joying a kind of Hip Van Winkle sleep during the last seven or eight years, from which he is but just awakened. lie ap pears to remember, with some degree of accuracy, the history of the Democratic party during the seventy years that he says it had control of the nation, but he avers that he had forgotten the existence of such a man as Jo. Jane, and he seems to know nothing more of James Huchanan than that he is a fossilized old fogy, who at some remote period was President of the United States. There is one chapter in the history of the Democratic party which has escaped h s observation, and be can only remem ber it as it existed in the early days of its pride and power, when such men as Jef terson. and Jackson and Denton gave it a dignity luster which it will never again enjoy. Such modern Democratic stars as James Huchanan. Jeff. Davis. John 13. Floyd. Wirz, Winder. Wilkes Hooth. and Andrew Johnson have risen and set while Mr Heed slept. We were rather inclined to congratulate him that he has been wrapped in the sweet embrace of Mor pheus while the billows of war have been surging against the yiillars of our govern ment, and that while the wail ot widows and orphans, and the groans of the dying have mingled with the shouts of contend ing hosts, he was not disturbed, but slept on, "Alike unconscious of our bosom s throes, And of the tea.'s we shed." Hut Mr. Heed lias been aroused from his long nap. and after rubbing his eyes open, he gazes around with a bewildered look, to find the scepter of power departed from the democracy. Like his venerable nro totype. he gropes among the crumbling ruins of the past, a stranger in his own land. His memory recalls the loaves and fishes of (ifiice. and straightway he starts forth as a teacher of the people in the "time honored principles.' lie advises us to "let the dread past bury its dead"' to forget that chapter in the history of the "democracy"' which recites the story of its infamy, to blot out from the book of our remembrance the tragic scenes of four years of civil war. and to restore to pow er the party, which after governing this country during the greater part of its ex istence, had not patriotism enough left to survive one single defeat at the polls, but plunged the nation into civil war. be cause the people discarded it for iis crime? against, the fundamental axioms ot freedom Hut Mr. Heed's case is not a hopeless one. he is but just arisen from a long and peaceful slumber, and hps not had time to become familiar with the changed condi tion of things, lie lives in the past, and must become familiar with the present: but we must be allowed to insist that, un til he has time to adjust his mental facul ties, and assume his mental equilibrium, he is not competent to become a public teacher.

One of the principal contractors was in Oregon City on Tuesday, and we learn that the formal inauguration of actual work will be had next week at Portland. The Sai.km Oil, Mill. Through the courtesy of Mr. Cartwright we visited the Pioneer Oil Mill at Salem, lately. The Company have a very complete establish ment. The mill and machinery cost about $22,000, in addition to which they have expended about $13,000 for stock, seed, elc. To one who has an interest in the development of Oregon, this mill presents a '-gushing'' topic. Oil is produced equal to any in the whole world, at San Fran cisco prices, at the rate of 200 gallons per day. There is a demand for the product now about equal to the supply. When we figure up what this one item has hereto o' cost Oregon, we congratulate the fortunate Capi'al in" securing this invest ment, and the farmers also, who. by it. find a new article of produce commanding their at e.ition. Notice. Every man who pays a rev enue tax is invited to read the notice of Mr. Wm. A. K. Mellen. published on the 4!h page ot the Extekpkise to-day. It will do you good. There are l,5b'8 lakes in Maine. some of which are from 1,200 to 2,IM)0 feet above the level of the sea. It is claimed that no other area of equal extent in the wor'd possess-s su much water power. At Mound City, on the Missis sippi, there are eight Monitors laid up; and as ihe care of them is rather a costly and troublesome job, it is pro po-ed to excavate a basin at a cost of $100,000, in which they may be al io vvej to lie. A bill is now before the Massa chusetts Legislature, which provides that "any city or town may choose mn! or more women as member.- of its school committee. Oswego. This Stirling town has been considerably "over-estimated' by the unterrified, in basing their calculations for success in this county at the coming election. It "has beer, asserted, time and again, by Demo crats, that Oswego would give this county into their hands. They omitted taking into their " estimates'" those zealou, active members of the Union party who live in Oswego, and are alive to the work. We admit that the Democrats have several strong men in their party at Oswego but, you see, there is not enough of that sort. It is votes that count, not always strength. Our old friend J. A. McDonald is a strong Demo crat, we respect him, he gives liber ally for the cause; we adm'.re his pluck and wish he would give us an opportunity to applaud his judgment. Recently this Democratic friend raised a Democratic pole at Oswego last Saturday our Uuion friends one. The plurality in the last case may he taken as an indication of the way the vote of Oswego will be cast. The Copperheads appear to be much exercised at the inconsistency of Congress, in violating the spirit of the resolution of July, 18G1, de claring the object of the war to be "alone for the preservation of the Union." Now the Revolutionary fathers, to whom the Democrats al ways point as models of consistency and patriotism, ate chargeable with the same error. The Congress of United Ci Ionics, in 177", repeatedly declared that, in opposing the laws of Parliament, independence was not their object. This is prominent in all the public nets and addresses to the King of Great Britain. In the Ppting of 1775 came the news of the passage of the act out lawing the rebellious colonists, and offering a reward for the capture of certain prominent statesmen. This instantly changed the face of affairs, and the D-claration of Inde pendence was the result. So in our case. The actions of the rebels in using their slaves and everything within their reach for the destruc tion of the old Government, forced us to abandon our pacific course The rebels and their Northern sym pathizers alone are chargeable with this change. Tllli PoK l land Pkintino. The Common Council of Portland receiv ed bids for the public printing from the Oreyouiun and Bulletin; but for "certain reasons," awarded the con tract to the Herald on Wednesday night. Those "certain reasons,'' it leaks out through the Herald, were that the committee thought ' it was not poliry to let the printing to the lowest bidder. " Oh, you public blood -tickers! How thnt policy teaches your principles. How it shows the true colors of your pretentions. Be cause the Council is Democratic, it is not policy to let the public print ing to the lowest bidder? What brazen-faced effrontery'. Tell us no more yon favor retrenchment. When that Council was Republ c m the Ilcr-al-l underbid the Oreyonian, nnd took away printing legitimately belonging to it. But "it is not policy," among Democrats, to let contracts to the lowest bidders when those bidders are Republicans. Harper's Publications. We are regularly in receipt of Harper's upw monthly Migazine, II irper's Weekly, and Harper's Bazar. The terms of any one of the above publications is 4,00 per annum. The Magazine is without a doubt the most popular monthly in the world; the Weekly is really the model newspaper of our country; and the Bazar, although but a few months has elapsed since it was started, has made its mark, and will soon bt come the most famous fashion taper in this country. We advise readers who want, choice matter to subscribe for Harper & Brothers' publications. By clubbing with the Knteupri-e they can be had at a rc duction: We will furnish this paper and any one of the above for 5 2.3 per year; This paper and any two of the above &S 50; This paper and the three for $1 1 75. Commodore Vaudcrbilt, if we are to believe current rumors, is the favorite candidate for the Presidency of many of ihe wealthy D -moerats oftheEist. who don't like Pendle ton, and have given np all hope i f Grant, as too radical for their pur poses. Vanderbilt is a man of im mense wealth, of great business ca pacity, and a favorite in "sporting cir cles' Somebody at Washington says that when Ben Wade asked Mr. Star ton, the other day, if he didn't intend to resign pretty soon, he replied, "Sir, I would as soon think of turniit" over the War Department to the rebels during the war as of surren dering my trust now into the hands of Andrew Johnson." Wherever Logan and Smith have spoken we hear that "David has got Goliah," but not in one in stance uue Goiiah chtstised David. Butter. Butter. Butter. Butter, Butter, Butter, has been the cry. With all the fresh grass, new milch cows, et. ceteras, no butter, tit to eat, has been ottered for sale in this market for nearly a month. A very ordinary lot was brought up from Portland on Wednesday, by one of our merchants, and sold at three bits"per pound, like hot rorn for naught. Why, in the name of II 11 not the Florence Sewing Machine in in, can we not have a good article of butter in tin market any day ? lleie is our friend S. W.

Now, why is it, that with such appliances we are obliged to go to Portland for our "churn ed milk ?" When we hear a man sav he is going to Portland to buy a new suit of cloth ing, we can account for his taste, because we know that Barman Bro.'s have the most excellent workmen in Oregon, and supplv the wants of their customers in a manner perfectly satistactory, but this butter ques tion is too strong for us to handle.
