The newspaper re potts, for instance, ol Greeley enthusi asm In Oregon, are a standing laugh ing-stock for everybody who knows the lacts. Then again, we all reniemlxr bow these pnpers reprented that there was a revolution in North Caro lina; a general uprising in favor of Greeley; an unprecedented enthusi asm for Greeley and Brown ; and ; dead sure thing on a fabulous majority for tlie Democratic State ticket. We -. have seen tlie result. The State made such a tremendous rush from Grant to Greeley, that the Democratic majority of 1S70 of nenrly 5,000 was increased to such an unheard of extent that it counts nearly 2,000 on the Republican side. North Carolina, thus early in the game, gives the lie direct to all tlie big stories told by the Greeley papers about revolutions, uprisings, gains, etc., iu favor of the Greeley-what-is-it ticket. Brag won't do in this fight. gentlemen. The Republicans, backed by tlie record of Grant's administra tion, have gained ne3rly7,000 In North Carolina, since 1S70, and that is the "first gun of the campaign." We commend tlie fact to your consider tlon. ISnCH MKX A6A1XST GREELEY The business men of the country, a a rule, are In favor of Grant. The followins, from the Trade Circular of Thomas J. Pope & Brother, expresses thu views ot this large and influential class: "The nomination of Mr. Gree ley had a depressing effect on bus iness, and has tilled the minds of finan cial men with tlie alarm and apprehen sion for the affairs of next season, should he be unfortunately elected. His well-known . "on to Richmond' measures specie 'payments letting go all tlie reserve and currency in the Treasury, and declaring by act ot Congress or by proclamation a return to specie payments next day ; his hatred, so vltuperatively expressed, of the trading classes : his association with Tweed and the deposed Rin leaders here, all points hi his success to disaster and to the complete dis organization of socletv disorganiza tion being his pet doctrine, and "what lie knows" of it his favorite practice. A PABTT or DEAD BEAT. The Opposition is made up of "dead beats." The old secessionists, the rebels of the war, who constitute lt- Southern and most enthusiastic wing, are tlie dead beats of rebellion. Tlie regular Democracy, that furnishes the main armv of the Opposition, is a po litical dead beat of the first magnitude. The soreheads, those who in the Re publican iarty have tried every trick to obtain places and owing to their in competency or knavery have failed. are the office-seeking dead beats. Xea r- ly every outcast from the society of gentlemen, nearly ever' unmitigated swindler who borrows money from the unwary on fale pretenses with no in tention of ever paying it,' the habitual dead beat tliat Infests every neighbor hood of the land. Is a noisy supporter of Greeley. Tlie anything-to-beat- Grant opposition Is essentially a party of Dead Beats. FEK1IAPH ME MISTAKE. Under the bead of That Index, tlie Benton Democrat. says: "The Salem Statesman said, a short time prior to the election in North Carolina, that "if that State went Re publican. It would be a sure index to tlie result In November, and will not only upset the basis of Greeley esti mates, but go far towards producing a reaction against the conglomerate Presidential ticket." It did not go Republican, and after the intelligence was received that It had gone Demo cratic, that paper didn't say anything more anout the index, etc. J. he state or JN ortn Carolina aid go Republican ; the result, as such, i i sure index to the result in November it does upset the basis of the Greeley estimates ; and it trill go far toward producing the reaction aforesaid. All of which we commend to the thought ful consideration of tlie Benton Demo crat, under tlie impression tliat, that paper is probably laboring under some slight mistake. Perhaps it has been reading the Herald's "specials." The Herald thinks it an outrage that two white meu signed bail in North Carolina tor several negroes ar rested on a charge of assault upon two Greeley negroes, and sees iu this act an - intention on the Dart of Grant to shield the guilty and override the popular will nt tlie ballot-box. If the fool killer should come to Oregon, there would 8on be a vacancy in the cdito rial chair of the Herald. Hon. G. W. Julian, of Indiana, is in great distress of mind concerning the nepotism of President Grant It turns out that Julian, with a patron age ot 300 in his district, put five rela tives in office. Grant, with a patron age of 60.000, has put thirteen rela tlves In office. Julian's nepotism therefore just five hundred timed greater than Grant's. Nearly nil tlie interior Deraocntic papers claim North Carolina as Demo cratic Really tliese cliaps ought to exchange with some dally newspaper or. werhaw. it wouki be better still If. like the ller tld, they could get relia ble special" tlisp.-itc.lics from San Francises. Tim now Congressional apportion ment give North Carolina eight in stead of seven Congressmen. This gain has fallen, in the late election, to the Republican side. Before, they had but two of seven, and now they have throe of eight. A. A. Sroitli, of Eugene, who has been long unfortunate In tlie matter of getting an office, has concluded, it is said, to go for Greeley, lie is accom panied in hi jotir:iey through tlie wil derness bv l-'aint Ken.

IS UBEELEY A STATESMAN T Tlie other night we lieard it stated nt the Greeley club meeting, that Hor ace Greeley is a statesman ; and be cause he Is a statesman, the speaker would Hf.prwt Kim. lie said Greeley was the'gl'etftest living journalist and that a great oirnalist Is necessarily a SRrfetfrnsfi1: because to be & great jour nalist or a statesman requires that the matnsiitil know all the history of his owti'ewintry, the history of all coun tries and all times; to know all about his own country and otlier countries, etc.; and, It was asserted, such knowl edge Is what makes a statesman. We thought this a novel definition of a statesman, but we attributed whatever was queer in it to the speaker's want of time. "Want of time" precluded the production of proofs, as well as the giving of clear, analytical definitions. Greeley might have all the knowl edge specified by this speaker, and be a statesman, or he might have it all and be a visionary fool, or he might not have naif of it and still be a states man. To know history is not to be a statesman any more than to know arithmetic Is to be a statesman. Though knowledge must unquestion ably be verv useful to a statesman, its possession does not necessarily give a man that quality or character. To be a statesman a man must understand the art ot governing ; know how, not only to control, but to take wise ad vantage ot circumstances, so that the result of an action shall be for the good of the people or to strengthen the Gov eminent; the statesman must have wisdom with knowledge, firmness with wisdom, steadiness of purpose with magnanimity, conservatism with cour age, etc. How many of these qualities and combinations has Horace Greeley ; Knowledge enough he has, undoubt edly; but beyond that, what? It will not be denied that he has been a mere changeling in opinion, in nearly every matter except that of a high proteetu-e tariff. He was one ot the leaders of" that class of politicians who utterly de nled tlie doctrine of States rights and advocated a strong i-entralized Gov- eeument ; yet the moment the South ern States appealed to arms in support of their ideas of State rights, Horace Greeley declared iu favor ot lettinj them go. not only suddenly abandon ing the principles he had held, but also ignoring the ruinous policy of consent ing to such a separation a separation that niut have led to certain segrega tion ot the remaining States, the utter dissolution of the Government, and in terminable broils and dissensions anions; the numerous petty Govern ments that might arise on the ruins of the grand old Union of all the States. This was the courage of a craven and the wisdom of a fool. Then when the jieople of the Uni ted States had decided that the Union should not be divided. Horace Gree ley was the loudest of nil to incite an excited people to acts of blood, pil lage, devastation, and the visit of ex treme retribution. This was the act of a frotny braggart arid changeling. While still our soldiers were but poor ly armed, comparatively destitute of military experience, almost wholly Ig norant of tlie physical difficulties lying before them, uncertain whom to trust, Greeley inaugurated his famous dog matic cry of "On to Richmond," de manding that our armies should march at once ujion the rebel capital. Perhaps not anotlier man, certainly no military man, was prepared to un dertake such an enterprise, and sulise quent events proved that compliance with Greeley's demand must have re sulted disastrously. At all events, be had not a particle of military or other knowledge or experience upon which to base his demand. This, then, was the act ot an inconsiderate, rash mad man. In one of the very darkest hours ot the war, when the rebels presented almost an unbroken front from the seaboard to the Mississippi ; when their emissaries were thick among our own people and along the Canada border ; when their allies of the North were banded in secret polit ical leagues, contemplating conflagrations of North ern cities, counter-revolutions at the North, involving the destruction ot our armies then in the Southern States, and the overthrow of the Un ion Government ; at such a time as this, Horace Greeley, without war rant from our Government, went to Niagara upon tlie invitation ot irre sponsible tools of the Confederacy, to connive, if not to treat, for peace peace which, under the then existing circumstances, was equivalent to a concession of all the rebels demanded, and disgraceful humiliation it not ruin to our own Government. This was the act of a silly, nusehevious in termeddler, not to characterize it by any severer name. Upon the withdrawal of our armies, at tlie conclusion of the rebellion, though Mr. Greeley had been an origin al advocate of the emancipation of the slaves, he began to clamor for univer sal amnesty for the rebels. This if it bad been granted 'vould have been a base abandonment of the blacks to the oppressions, injustice and outrage, to which tlie still maddened late masters would have subjected them. Subs(! quent events have sufficiently proved the wisdom of the Government in withholding immediate amnesty. This act of Greeley's was, therefore, not only ill-directed magnanimity toward the rebels, but absolute treachery to the blacks. An examination of Mr. Greeley's financial vagaries will be sufficient to satisfy most business men that at all events lus is not a statesman or a safe adviser in financial matters. The peo ple had hardly got settled down In their homes and business after the close of the war when Greeley began to clamor in his dictatorial and arro gant way for "specie payments." The country had an immense paper circu lation and very little coin ; in most ot the Eastern States the sight of coin was a rarity. The banks liad little or none. The U. S. Treasury liad com paratively little. The entire coin of the United States would have scarcely transacted the business of a week ; no where in tho Eastern States would it have sufficed for a day. The resump tion ot specie payment would have broken down the Treasury and the banks paralyzed business aud brought on a general financial crash and wide spread min, beside bearing the value of our national securities in all the mar kets of the world. Fortunately the administration gave no heed to Greeley's demand ; the crisis that everybody feared was avoided; the national debt, by careful management, was largely decreased ; our currency was appreciated in value; the national credit was enhanced and placed on a iirai basis ; loans became easier '"uad cheaper; business rallied and jrf.v stioug; and prosperity be came everywhere the rnle where in-du-try prevail;!. And ail this came of refusing to do what Greeley de manded and of doing exactly the re verse. His demand for tlie resump tion of specie payment, wss tlie act of au Impulsive chimerist. It is the fear of tlie iuextrlcable muddle into which he might plunge the financial affairs of the country, that arrays very nearly all intelligent business men against him, now. AIMIt T SEPOIIS.n. We have just learned a fact which is peculiarly calculated to startle the world arid to destroy the confidence of the Universal brotherhood ot man m tlm integrity ol well, say l.iljenn Re publican candidates for the Vice Pres idency. We have been going on from day to day with the profoundest re spect and Unbounded admiration for our J. Yf. Jasper, J., believing that he was mounting from one hf-lght to another' dizzier height, purely upon his own native talent, ami by reflec tion and association covering our State with second-hand glory. We liave been going on from day to day, listen ing to the assurance of honest Dem ocrats aud honest office hunters tliat the Liberal ticket is composed exclu sively of the honestet men iu tlie na tion; men who never hunted tor of fice; men who wouldn't take an office at all except by way of self sacrificing martyrdom ; men who wouldn't, on any account, place a relation in oilice ; men who would scorn to be nepotists, and all that kind of nice talk. And now we find that oiir. pride in .Tasj.ej is blighted and our budding coufitleiicc in anti-nepotic Liberal Republicans is gone where the woodbine twiuvth. In brief, our J. W. Jasper J. is a natural cousin of B. GriiU B. All t)w ro mance of our Jasper's rise; at Cincin nati, and his subsequent effulgence at New York is gone out like :i candle SnuHed ; for. :ilas, it is too apparent that he rose like a nepotic fungus ttpou the nepotic shoulders of his cousin, the denouncer of nepotism iu Grant. Our belief in B. Gratz B. as the coining man who was born to mercilessly scourge every relation, of wliatcver name or degree, out of olllce. has beeu effectually dispelled by the bit of in formation that his lirst act as a candi date was to place a cousin (not his wile's) in the best office within the gift ofa Vice Presidential candidate. If B. (iratz B. begins thus early to tnil bis relations into office, how intermi nable may not the list of his nepotic ! relations become in a few years, in j case he should he elected. And they i say Grata lias got more cousins iimpe- j etinious as our J. W. Jasper, too) than : any man in America. The prospect is frightful to every patriot whose holiest j soul burns with anti-nepotic lire. We are told that Gen. Grant's in:li- ! tarv services are to go for nothing in this campaign. We do not. however, believe that it is in the heart of tlie people of the United States to reward such services as General Grant's, in such a scurvy way. Wc believe Un people of this country incapable of ingratitude so base as that. These stump-spouters who try to put Grant's past record out of siht will find they have mistaken their own malice ami meanness for something greater and better the popular sentiment. B. Gratz had the cholera morbus tho other day in New York, whereupon Gen. Comly of the Ohio State Journal, who knows B. Gratz's private habits, perpetrated the following : "Ixok not upon the watermelon when it is red, nor upon the stewed clicrry when it givcth its color in the cup ; at the last it biteth like a soft-shell crab and stingeth like the cholera morbus.' llaving seen the campaign song en titled "King Greeley in," the Xew York Commercial Advertiser re marks that taere is evidently a com bination of "Rinsr;" for that purpose, and not the least thereof is that re cently galvanized o.-'.; ui'r ot all re spectable folks, the Tammany Ring. The best thing we have seen on the North Carolina election, next to the Herald's rooster and "specials," is per petrated by the Bedrock Democrat, which says : "From tlie alxve. it will be seen that the ip'ntt xtrowjhvld if f.'ic llariiculx in tlie Smth. has wheeled in- to the ranks ot the Democracy and Liberals,'' A change in favor of the Republican party in North Carolina, of nearly 7,000 votes, since 1S70, indicates to the average Democratic Oregon editor that North Carolina is good tor at least 10,000 majority for Greeley aud Brown! If these men couldn't blow they couldn't live. The Democratic Times thinks that when the Democrats have used the Liberal Republicans in 1S72. to beat Grant, they (tho Democrats) will slide offinlSTii, and elect a matt of their own. In thnt case, what is to becom;; of the Liberal Republicans? Where are they going to slide to ? Mather whimsical isn l, to think about the Oregon Herald drawing its inspiration lrom the New York Tri bune, and to see Tribune editorials slightly worked over and published as original in the Herald? . The Grant men of Lane county, will organize a Grant and Wilso-.i Club, to-day. They arc conlident they cm make Lane county do hotter for Grant than it did for Jo. Wilson. A bedrock Democrat of this county who triaf vote lor Greeley mentioned, yesterday, to us, the names of eight Democrats in one neighborhood, who trout vote for Greeley. How the Greeley wagon does rush, to be sure .' Tlie Jacksonville Democratic Times has taken to quoting George Francis Train against Grant. If there lacked anything before, to break Greeley's hack, It must have been the George Francis Train straw. Mr. Stanton, the husband of Eliza beth Cady Stanton, is a Greeley man. Mr. Gage, tlie husband of Mrs. Joslyu Gage, Is also a Greeley man. Mrs. Stanton and Mrs. Gage are both Grant men. Tho Herald indignantly denies that W. H. Newell of Walla Valla wants to buy the Herald, or that the Herald wants to sell to W. II. Newell. All of which is satisfactory, and the world goes on. The cason of Democratic Conven tions lias opened. Michigan leads of!, with prospects tliat her convention will be fully attended. The Louisville I Convention is looming up. In 1353 B. Gratz Brown's "sympa-l thics" were with Fremont, but lus support was given to Bucliannn. How do the Liberal Republicans like his record ? If we had a keen vision and feeling of all ordinary human I'.fe, it would he like hearing, the grass grow a id the j ptirre'.'s l.er.r beat, and we should ; die of that rbar which lies on the other fcit'e of silence.

One of our givat. objects is to protect the interests f thu State, and show a Irout iu the 'shape ot a strong party to assist you and other Republican Representative in ob taining just and correct Legislation tortile State. We want to save the swamp lands of the State and obtain a Capital appropriation, tfce. It is not improbable, but you may hold the casting vote of I. S. Senator also. There arc many good Republi cans iu thi S;:(tp wi10 'jriviitly prefer that Holladay should ii'-t dictate the man. We look to you a an honest, firm and intelligent Representative, to ke;p out of the clutches of party, and I not snilcr yourself to be shackled by j anybody, any man or any party, so that at. any time and all times you can do that which is best for the State. If our name or our party power is any thing, wc intend to use it to sustain good men in good measures. We hpard your declarations on the stump last spring, and believing thctn, is why we write you. A few lirm and honest meu can do a great deal to ob tain jutice to the State. In listing our names as Liberal Re publicans and Greeley men. w-e do not proclaim war upon Gen. Grant, or forget his gallant service to our common country. We only post our selves as vigilant sentinels on the out posts ol measures. A vigilant and strong opposition ensure purity and carefulness in the party in power, and helps to keep the State right. That is uiv position if I know myself. Please reply. Truly yours, G. W. Lawson, Secretary. KM.LE TO LAVTSON. BFAFAS-SI, Ogn., Aug. 8, 1S72. Hon. G. W. Lawms : Dear Sir Yours of tbe 4th in, has been re ceived and contents considered. Your ar'vicc to keep out of c.rrpf pfirtu cJi'jiie.. is verv good, and I think that I shall act accordingly ; at least, so far as to keep out of srte' Greeley or ganizations. It might be proper lor me. to say that, while I am a Republi can, I do not hold that everything the Republicans may do is right ; but I propose to ue what little ability find iufluence I may posses. In the endeav or to remedy wlwt evils there may be, without going outside ot the Republi can ornuization. Permit me to say that while I do not assume to sit iu tiidtrmniir. on your actions. I cannot heipb-it lUiiikthat you nrc acting a little inconsistently in joining tin ."-;.v.f.w 'vsrtv. Ycu say that vou do not -'roi'iami war upon vieu. ihhik, imr lorget his gallant service to onr common co'intVy. If yunr joining a party which Is at war with Gen. Cirant. witli the Republican iarty, with the : Ik st intflixsts of the country, and with nil the great measures tliat have cost! the country so much blood and treas- ' lire, i not pi-ociaiining war upon Geii. Grant, then, sir, I do not know how i you w-vmld go about procfeiliniiip; war t asajurC the IU-publicnn candidare lor ' President. For I lnaiutain that every t orgrmitition gotten up iu opposition ; t"tte noininees of the Republican ! party at Philadelphia, whatever nam; yo may call it, whetiier Greeley, Liberal Kepubliciiu, licform, Iolly . VardtJi. or what not. is a move to play into the liauds of the old Rebel iX'MOM-ratie jiarty; and until I am. convinced to tlie contrary, I shall treat all tHce side-shows :is enemies in the KepulJlcait party and to the Iw.-st in terests of our common country. Again, you are, yourself, inconsistent, in tJiat you propose to hold ma t my ueclai-ations in the campaign of Inst S;riii. while yon assume the ri;ht to holt any or all the noinii en of tbe lb- ' publican iiarty. You said at Howell's , I'ntirie. last spring, tliat if Gen. Grant w-re nominated at. Philadelpbfcj, i'ft vni.e fur liim. .Vow, sir. I silo .Hrt think you are the proper pcruoo to j hold ine accountable for anvlbing; 1 j may nave sam, wniioyoit tieniieraieiy g lack on your own public dvdara t'ron.

The Dem ocratic Kxecutive Dominittee have is sued a circular to the Democrats, urg ing immediate organization for the purpo-e ot supporting the principles of the party as they will be proclaimed by the Septeiulier Convention at Louis ville. Tlie Committee says the utter abandonment of principles, as evinced by the specimen and place hunters in their attempt to elevate Greeley to the Presidency, evidence the organization of corrupt ion. The bargain is a trautl and a base hypocrisy. It mu-t be re pudiated and spurned by every man who ha" a -spark of honesty in bis iieart. There are hundreds of thous ands who already proclaim their pur poses of maintaining the Democratic organization at all hazards. The cir cular concludes with a recommenda tion for the immediate appointment" in every country ofa committee of five or more, which, with the chairman, shall constitute a district committee ; that Congressional conventions shall be as sembled on or before the '25th of Au gust, to select two delegate- and fwo alternates from each (iistricr ; that a tuli delegation from each State shall be present on the 3d of September.
