Sinco the soiled banner of the bastard confed eracy went down at Richmond, Grant has been the most popular man in the f nation. Of tha cordon of veterans Avhosc sturdy Valor crushed the re bdlior., and made the arii.ed hosts of 0 treason quail, the silent, modest Hero, Goa.

It is true the days of conflict are ended, but the warfare of opinion is yet to be settled. Our country's al tars call for no more lavish offerings of blood and treasure, but " eternal vigilance is the price of Liberty." This the people, the great intelligent, governing mass of the nation under stand; and trie same devouring flame of patriotism which under the leader ship of U. 5.

The copperhead Democracy cf this county are making much noise about high taxes, and assert that it is needless Now everybody knows that the increased levy this year was owing to the purchase of bridges by the county, so as to have the road fnes to the puUic. And right here permit us to say that the poliey of purchasing bridges in order to make them free, was inaugurated by D'on. i3. Huelat, when he was tounty Judge, and we understd he is a bright and shining Vight among the Democrats. And further it is true that petition.! for the purchase of the Cason and Wright bridges were signed by a large number of the tax payers of the county, including al most all the leading and influential Democrats. When you listen to the harangues or the noisy demagogues whoare Democratic candidates, would yon believe that their names with other leading Democrats were on record asking the County Commmis sioners to buy tLose very bridges. Were they sincere when they asked it? Or are they now denouncing their own infamy. But you cancot justly estimate the financial policy of any party by look ing at any one year alone. The only fair way is to take a series of years together and average them, aud con sider what has been done during the time. Let us do that: The Republicans and Union men have been in power in Clackamas county eight years. The whole levy of taxes, including 18GT, the bridge year, for county purposes has been 51 mills or an average of G mills for every year. This will be seen from the following official table; I860.... 1861..., 18G2.... 1863. . . . 1864 1865 1S66 ... 1867. .., 7 Mills 5 " 6 " 6 " 5 " 7J " 5 Totnl Average 51 61 Now let us turn to the last eight years of Democratic rule and see how they compare: 1S52 Si Mills 1853 8'i 1854 J'. 7 1855 7 1S.'.( 7 1857 1 1858 5 1859 7 " Total 4D Average 6g Now consider that when the Union men took charge in 1860, the Dem ocrats had left the county in debt about $3000, and that county scrip was worth but from GO to 75 cents on the dollar. And then remcmher that all this indebtedness has been paid, and that county orders are worth (heir face in coin ut this date, and be as tonished, if you can, that the average of taxation has only been mill higher under Union rule than under Demo cralie. Democrats don't blow r.ny more about taxes. If there has ever happened a more disreputable thing to sully the fair fame of our City, than the anonymous lies of Calchas, it has not yet been divulged. A deliberate, cold-blooded attempt has been made to blast the reputation of some of out oldest and most respectable citizens, by wholesale falsehoods published over an anonymous signature, in the democratic organ. Scoundrtls iu the Police Court, and sneaking liars generally, are fond of this plan for escaping personal responsibility, and the exposure of their viliainy. Apos tates, are sometimes known to use this scandalous and cowardly weapon against old friends. But a gentleman never did, and never will, (unless cowardly villainy comes to be a stan dard manly accomplishment)emplcy this shameful weapon. It is a fit weapon for renegades cowards and liars. It is a bad cause which finds use for such min ions iu its service. Truth needs no such allies, and turns with contempt from such aid. " Like master like man!" is in this instance, significant, ly illustrated. The ill paid service of a sneaking, cowardly liar, is a most fit auxiliary for copperhead ism and modern democracy. This convictc d liar, vouchsafes no opo.'ogy when his lies are exposed, Lat laughs the matter off with the effrontery of a hardened sconudrel long past the blush of shame, or sense of personal infamy. One instance will do. The case of Mr. Jesse. Calchas the liir, says Mr.Burns bought Jesse's County scrip for greenback?, and then bought the greenbacks for coin. Jesse in his card pi - noonces this an unmiti gated lie with no word of truth in it thatMr. Burns never tonght county scrip of him for greenbacks or coin. Well, does Calchas explain so far he says if he had known Mr.Jesse was & republican, he would have taken a little more trouble to learn the fads or to tell the truth. Tnat leaves the plain inference that Calchas supposed Jesse waf a Democrat, ergo he would father any iie started for the good of the lying cause. Then CaU chas goes on to say, that if it was not Win. P. Burns who bought the scrip, it was John M. Baeon-or gome other man. We may refer to this thing again I respect ora'tontlou which either lie wiuuwii tk u, ueseres nouco lor any RAILUOADITE5IS. The line of levels, run above this city by Mr. Burrage, gbows that the only difficulty in the way of con structing the rOad, is over the low land between the nortlt bank of the Mollala, and the south bank of the Pudding river, -which is at least 80 feet lower than the prairie lands nortV, and south of it, and this docs not involve any serious engineering difficulty, and it is only remarkable that the route, with so few exceptions, is easy and practicable. Mr. Burrcge considers his preliminary view as en tirely satisfactory; and it places be yond douht the question of the con struction of the road. Tho Central Pacific Railroad Company havo now 4,000 Chineso laborers stretched along the road from the Truckee river toward Hum boldt, who grade over this level route faster than the iron can be brouaht over the mountains to complete it. The Chinese camp in tents, and as fast as one section is completed, they move forward like an army of sol diers. They are employed for the work by the contractors, learning their duties easily, and faithful in dis charging the same. Tho Sacramento Bee and other papers are urging the railroad compa ny to put down the rates of transpor tation upon fruit, and wo believe it is their intention to do so. At reason able freights the fruit-growers of Cen tral California will find an immense market in Nevada the coming Sum mer, as, by the aid of the railroad, their produce can be placed there in a fresh condition. We clip the following from a late number of the Denver Herald: The rates of freight from Omaha to Uheyenno are as follows: First class, $3 65 per hundred ; second class, $3 79 ; third class, $o 55 ; lumber in lots of 5,000 feet and over, $30; live stock per car, $125 ; grain and mill stuff in lots of 18,000 pounds and over, $2 o0 per hundred. Pas senger fare remains at 851 50. When lately iu Salem, Mr. Elliott, agent of the contractors for the Oregon Central, contracted for maple lumber, to be used in the con struction of pussenger cars for the road. Also for cloth to be used in the upho'stering work. Oregon ma terials so far as practicable, will be used by the Company. By the middle of June, the tran tit from Sacramento to Virginia City, Nevada, will involve no more l!i"' twenty miles staging. From Reno eastward, when ccunecticn over the summit is made, the road will go ahead with unexampled rapidity. The Record is informed that good hands, experienced in car-build ing, now living in Oregon, have been employed to work in the shops of the Company. A meeting of the Directors of the O. C. R. II. Company will be held at their office in Salem on the 0th of June. Gen. Grant will be inaugurated President of the U. S., Washington City, D. C, on Thursday, March 4lh 1860. Provided the Democracy do not poison nor assassinate him. The Lafayette Courier says D. M. McKcnny has "been acting wilh the Republican party until very re cently." We do not know when Mac ever acted with the Republicans m good faith. It turns out that the crew of the schooner Growler were murdered on the north west coast by Hydah in dians. In purchasing Alaska we took in some of the most untamed savages ever heard of, who must now be cleaned out. Capt. J. M. Keeler, 95 Liberty street, New York city, whose Oregon agency we have favorably noticed in these columns is doing a good work for the State. All merchants who wish to try direct trade should entrust Capt. Keeler with an order. The Mountaineer says that Ben Hayden's manner and tone has con siderably changed, that he has be come quite docile and manageable in fact he is a Conservative. Jt must have been since he held forth in this city, only a few weeks 3go. The Pacific Tribune of Olym pia, under the able management of Messrs. Cha3. Trosch & Co., is be coming a valuable journal. It was recently much enlarged, and other wise improved. Olympia supports excellent papers. Murphy does not seem to flourish, but that is not for want of energy on his part. lie is casting pearls before those who con strue icnorance as bliss. On Friday evening of last week, S. J. M'Cormick Esq., of Portland, spoke for two hours to an audieuce in this city, at the Court House, tell ing much of plain unvarnished truth, respecting the Democracy and the Irish-American citizeas. How any Irishman can believe in the doctrines j of this modern Democracy, and yet ! ask freedom for Ireland, is a puzzle to as. j he .vidrc.'.s ot Mr. At Uormtck had a derided effect in favor of the Vr.trr: p.-! '. s . OKEGOX CENTRAL RAILROAD. (From tho San Francisco Bulletin.) Thero is every reason to believe that Oregon is stirring with a new im pulse. After a long period of dis trust or indifference with reference to the railroad project to traverse the State from the Columbia river to the California border, the Oregonians seem at last to be convinced that the building of the road has been under taken in good faith by responsible parties. We have from reliable sources some facts on this subject which are full of interest. On the lGth of April, ground was formally broken for the road on the east bank of the Willamette, opposite Portland, in the presence of several thousand people, who displayed unusual en thusiasm. The locality mentioned is a fertile flat, partly covered with strawberry vines. About one hun dred ladies insisted on turning a bhov el full of earth, and many of them plucked strawberry vines to plant in their gardens at home, in commem moration cf the occasion. A more practical evidence of the popularity of the roud, is found in the fact that the farmers along the route arc sub scribing liberally to its stock. For ten per cent, paid, the Company issue unassessable stock, raising the bal ance of money needed cn bonds. Those who cannot pay money for their stock, pay in land and produce. Some farmers subscribe ten, fifty, and one hundred acres each. Major Glenn, of Jackson, in Rogue River Valley, has subscribed half of his tract of G O00 acres, to be conveyed when the road reaches that region. Many farmers who do not wish to part with any of their land, are sub scribing a certain quantity of grain for a Cxed time. The Company has contracted with S. G. Elliott, who is said to be backed by A. J. Cooke & Co., for the con struction of 150 miles of road, to a point 40 miles south of Eugene City, at the head of the Willamette Valley. This much of the work is to be done in two years. Tho road will be in operation to Oregon City, 13 miles from Portland, by September 1st, and to Salem, 50 miles from Port land, by January next. Clackamas county is a flourishing manufacturing locality, where an unrivalled water power exists, and where woolen, pa per, ani iron manufactories, and flour ing and saw mills arc already in ope ration. Salem is the capital of the State. The maximum grade of the road for the 150 miles, will not reach 10 feet fr mile, and for a great por- j tion of the ulstanc? ii will be nearly j or quite level. Gradm is progress t r O ing at the rate of two q;:1cs per yveti. The character of the countrv is verv favorable to rapid grading, most of! which can be done with plows and teani3. The iron and rolling stock for 50 miles have been purchased, as heretofore stated in this paper, and some of the craterial, including that far two locomotives and several cars, has already reached Portland. " A workshop is now going up on the east side, and an agent of the compa ny now in this city, Mr. Loryea, has purchased the machinery for two saw mills to cut tks and other timber. Some of the farmers along the route are now engaged m getting out ties for the first section. A contract has been let for the const ruction acrc ss J the Willamette, a double-deck bridge ISO feet long, to cost $250,000 and to be done in one year. The bridge is to be built at Portland, and the city will be asked to meet a part of the expense. Before its completion con nection will be made with the first section of the read by a ferry. The road is to be of a substantial charac ter. The track will be of 50-pound iron, fi.,hbolt rail, like that on the Central Pacific, which makes a solid continuous track, and guage 4 feetS.V inches. The company has lately closed a contract with the same par ties above named, to complete the road to the California border a dis tance of over 300 miles, within five years, and hope in that time, if not before, to meet tho track of a con necting road from this State. An agent of the company goes East on the next steamer to purchase more iron, and to meet the first interest payments on the company's bonds. The above statements, which are made on good authority, arc highly important to the material interests of both Oregon and, California, and it is to be hoped that the anticipations they excite will i.ot be disappointed. The farmers of Oregon who are represent ed to be subscribing to the stock of this road confidently, exhibit a degree good sense and sagacity, which might be imitated to advantage in this State, where, by local subscriptions in mon ey, land or produce, aided by bonds, of good railroads can be built for the accomodation of our valley districts, at from $10,000 to $20,000 a mile. The Oregon Central goes through the heart of the Willamette valley, the ! granary and garden of the State, and, if rightly managed, cannot but prove a profitable enterprise to all con cetned. Several capitalists of San Francisco have taken a warm interest in the work, and will help to push it forward. They and others of this city will find it to their advantage to promote ra'lroi 1 enterprise i?i Cali v;:'.i c-n ti;- s-.ie r'.:i. IIEPITJLICAS PLATFORM Adopted at Salem MarcU 'iltli 1G. 1. Resolved.

The Umatilli Press says, prognostication cf " the event" that is to turn Oregon over iuto the hands of the Philistines : "Marion county, heretofore largely Republican, is expected to give a large Democratic majority this year." This reminds us of a little joke. Doc. Loryea was once introduced to our friend Stroud, when Stroud was running on tho Democratic ticket for the legislature in Marion county. Loryea had not been informed ' that Stroud was a Democrat, and prcsum irg upon his good looks and intelli gence said to Thim : " A nomination in Marion is equivalent to an elec tion !" After election Stroud met Loryea and says ho : " Doc, you are a smart man you told me that a nomination was equivalent to an election and I am beaten by more than seven hundred votes." Doc's explanation was satisfactory. No sane person has the least idea that Marion county will ever go Demo cratic so long as that, party continue in ifs ssarch for the time honored principles.
