Y1 H r O 0 o i o o o o 0 O (El)c Ipeekhj (Enterprise Oregon City, Oregon , D. C. IRELAND, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR. Saturday March 13, 1869. THE SEW ADMINISTRATION. President Grant had hi3 Cabinet matters finally settled ou the lOt.b. Good feeling appears to prevail at Washington, and no disarrangement "whatever was caused by the ineligibil ity of Mr. Stewart. Grant, when he nominated Stewart was clearly una ware that h'e was ineligible;' but as the law on the subject is a very old one, the mistake was one very liable to be made. But it was an error to ask its repeal for a special purpose, and Grant exhibited his good sense in not insisting upon a reply from Congress, hence Mr. Stewart resigned and the Cabinet as completed is as follows : Secretary of State, Hamilton Fish, of New York. Secretary of the Treasury, Geo. S Boutwell, of Massachusetts. Secretary of the Navy, A. II. Bo vie, of Pennslyvania. Secretnry of War,- John A. Raw ling-;, of Illinois. Secretary of the Interior, Jacob D. Cox, of Ohio. Postmaster General, Jno A. Cress well of Maryland. Attorney General, E. B. Hoar, of .Massachusetts. In other rept-cts, says the Oregon ian, the President commences well. He is beginning to fire some center shots into the foul brood foisted in office by Johnson, for which he has the thatiks of the country. It is not worth while to become excited over the " situation' as everything at "Washington is tranquil and the course of affairs will soon begin to run smooth It will naturally take a little time to accommodate matters and jret things into working order. A bill was recently introduced into the Senate of the United States which provides that all steamships' heretofore built and registered ia the United States, or which may be built in the United States within five years, shall be released from the payment of all dues and taxes to the United States so long as they are employed in transporting the United States mails at a comppnsalion not exceed ing the amount of ocean and inlnnd postage, and exempts all materials used in their construction or equip ment from payment of duties and taxes to the United States. This become a law, and it will give an impetus to ship building on Puiref Sound which will be remarkably ac tive, for reasons which we shall state in a future article. The copperhead press of Ore gon still continue their abuse of Mr. Minto, editor of the Farmer, knowing full well that he cannot give them blow for blow if he could they would weaken. It seems from these events that Democrats are afraid that knowledge will reach their Klan through the Farmer, and thereby the party will lose its standing in op position to the onward march of Progression. The latest slurs of the Herald and Democrat are mean lowflung and show that they are the products of despicably diseased minds. The Republican journals of the State have just as good cause to abuse Mr. A. L. Slinson, who is a Democrat but they have too much honor amoug them to do such a All Republican Editors in this State, (except . the Editor of the American Unionist) who excepts him self are " lick spittle editors" ac cording to that self devoted oracle The Editor of the Unionist should apply the terra as it was originally derived, from having licked up the spittle of his Salem masters, declar ing it delicious to his taste, as did the ancient parasites. The old stvamship Oregon has been sold to a firm who will convert her into a bark, for the Seabeck and San Francisco lumber trade. The Oregon was one of the three steam ships built in 1S48 by the P. M. S S. Company, to ply between Panama and California. She arrived at San Francisco on the 31st of March 1S49. The New York Grand Jury recommend that the Legislature make the carrying of a loaded pistol a penal offense Murders and rob beries were never so rife iu New iork as they are novr. GRANT AND TEMPERANCE. Many of the friends of President j Grant have been anxious to know his position upon the temperance question. His most earnest sup porters have sought to impress upon the public mind the fact that he was strictly temperate in all his habits the cigar question being left out in order that his prospects in the can vass might receive no injury. On the other hand his political enemies have assiduously maintained that he was grossly intemperate. Now it is a matter of little concern to us, what his habits may have been in years past, the qnt'Stion is what will he do in his present position1? It would not be strange, if as "a Ciptain in the regular service, in the society of jovial companions, he should fall into irregular habits, but will he now abandon those habits and maintain the honor and dignity of the place he has been called to fill. More than once duriug the last few years a sad spectacle has been held up to the gaze of the American people. The robes of office have been draggled in the dust, aud the good sense of the nation insulted, and we involuntarily ask, as a new incumbent fiils the scat of power, are these things to con tinue? We do not presume to speak authoritatively upon this subject. All the evidence we can gather is circumstantial. It is not in accord ance with the character of the new President himself to disclose all his intentions, let irom the evidence we can gather we are hopeful of the future. We believe that we have a President who is a temperance man in theory and practice. We do not sav that we believe him to be a total abstinence man. We wish we could. We do not believe tlut he will suffer an cuemy to steal away his brain-, who will not suffer his political friends to become cognizant of his secret purposes. In support of our belief, we may be permitted to in dulge in a little a priori reasoning. In the first place, we believe that Gen. Grant feels the responsibility of his new position. To a careless observer he may seem at times as stolid as fate and assume the appear ance of indifference to passing events. Men accused him of this during the trvinir scenes of the war. but be- neath a calm and quiet exterior, he seemed to know and to feel that mighty issues were depending upon his movements. In the greatest crisis through which the nation pass ed, he gave the evidence that he had "a heart to resolve, a head to con trive, and a hand to execute." When others trembled through fear. " He thought as a sage, 'Though he fell as a man.' Though relieved from the excite- ments of war, yet the voice of the Nation has called him to fulfill the sterner duties of peace, and can he bear any less lightly the load that rests upon him ? We believe a sense of duty will compel him to devote all the energies of his mind to the task before him. In the second place,w? believe Gen. Grant has too much respect for the feelings of the people, to allow him self to become a slave to any personal vices. He cannot be ignorant of the reproach brought upon the office, by the conduct of his predecessor. lie cannot have forgot en how the Chris tian sentiment of the people was outraged, and the cry of indignation that went up from all parts of the laud, lie cannot be unconscious of the position tie occupies as the repre sentative of the party of order and progress, and whatever his views and personal habits may have been we believe that he will seek to live with out reproach in this one thing. In the third place, we believe him to be master of his own passions. Hi has shown his ability to rule over an army. We lack auy direct evidence to show that he was ever disqualified by intemperance for the position he lilled. He seemed to be always eady for action when the ruament for action came. His record during the war we hold as a pledge for his upright conduct in times of peace. But how do facts correspond with this reasoning? We can gather no evidence to subvert it, on the contra ry our evidence sustains it. We do not learn that he became intoxicated aunnjr me urosress or the camnairrn t - . , or after his election, yet his temper ance principles were put to the se verest test. The National Temperance Advocate sets Gen. Grant down as a thorough teetotaler, if his course at New York during one of his late visits is a fair indication of his usual practice. He refused to taste wine at the dinner iziven to Mr. Evarta at the Astor House. He did the same at a dinner given by one of the merchants of the city. Bonner, of the Ledger, who took him about the city, says he po litely refused several gentlemen, the honor of a "little sunthin" to drink with them, at a fashionable hotel where they stopped to warm. Let us congratulate ourselves upon the acces sion of a President who enters office as a temperance man, aud if the devil in human form ever holds a cup to his lips, let us pray that he may have strength to "light it out oa that line." STAMP DUTIES. The following circular concern ing stamp duties, prepared by Mr. in Wm. Wadhams of R. G. Sneath's, wholesale erocer, 32 Front street, Portland, is a clear statement of w 'i what the law requires, and we there- fore publish it here, though the law has beeu frequently published: " Having had many inquiries about me iaw in regara 10 canned goods .,u luu.., auu . wring .mpracuca- pneb of mv natmn T tnlA tlnC I portunity and method of communis eating the substance of each act.

Fine -cut, (Solace. &c ,) requires a one ounce stamp of the 32 cent class upon each paper or pack- age. Smoking tobacco, h;tlf pound packages, requires an eight ounce stamp of the 16 cent class. The law is now in force on snuff, fine-cut and smoking tobacco. Plug tobacco can be sold without stamps until July 1st, 1869. The greatest possible care should be taken to properly stamp all re- ceipts, receipted bills, notes, &c, with the proper Internal Revenue stamps all canned or bottled fish, sauces, syrups, trench mustard, po mades, hair oils, &c., with the proper proprietary stamps, and all tine-cut chewing and smoking tobacco and snuff with the proper tobacco stamps, and thereby avoid the penalties pro vided for a violation of the law.'' A correspondent at Buena Vista Polk county, leads us to understand that that place would be benefitted by the erection of a flouring mill, and that the investment would pay. There is also a good opening at that place for a tin-ware and stove store, and a cabinet shop. Buena Vista is a flourishing country town, beauti fully situated upon the west bank of the Widlamet, in the heart of a fine, agricultural region, twelve miles south of Salt-m. It has at present three black smith shops, three wagn shops, a stone ware manufactory which pp. duces the very best quality of goods in that line, one dry goodg and three grocery stores, one drug store. Oi.e saddlery and harness shop, where work is turned out that for quality is equal to the best, a cooper shop, one lodge of Odd Fellows, one of Good Templars, and a flourishing organiza tion of the Bind of Hope. There is also one "dodgery" in the place, but the proprietor having recently been fined, had to pay nearly $100 for the luxury of retailing wihout a license, in addition to which, later still, he has been compelled to pay penalty and costs amounting to about $250 for selling to a minor, so it will be observed that this branch of busi ness is not prospering their. We have a letter from Silverton which informs us that the farmers in that vicinity have been making good use of their time during Febru ary, by sowing grain There will be thirty per cent, more seeding done, in Oregon this season, compared with last, lhe farmers of our State ap pear to have awakened from their leihargy, and propose to make a mar ket for their products by producing a surplus which will attract tonnage and purchasers Seed is at this time very, cheap, and gans plows are abun dant, both of wh'ch, taken in con nection with the fine eat her, tend to stimulate increased production. Silverton appears to be keeping pice in improvements with the bal ance of Oregon. Davenport & Wol- fard have just moved into their new brhk, and other merchants talk o building this season. Messrs. Lowe fc Remington have aIo just moved into their new wagon aud blacksmitl shop. James Connelly has beeu con' victed of murder in the second de gree, for the killing ol Buckskia Bil at Portland.

I here is scarcely a doubt m the minds of the public but that he richly deserves to be hanged let jti ries decide us they may. The acion was instituted by Mr. W. P. Crow, a brother of tho deceased wife, who has facts which leave not a shadow of doubt upou his mind as to the guiit of McAfee, who, it seem', brutally treated his wile, and drove her off, she afterwards returned to his house, and assumed all the blame of their domestic troubles, for the sake of her huband and his profession. She did not long survive, however, but died under circumstances strongly indicat ing that her husband administered slow poison, and gradully suvthered ur out of existence. During this time it is said that McAfee and a wo man named Green; whose husband it is also suspected was made way with in the same professional way by Mc Afee; were ciiminally intimate, aud since married. The Commercial isof the opinion that the negro school in Portland '"is not many removes from a nuisance;" The reason set forth for this conclu sion is : That no sooner is school let out ihan a crowd of vouncr white 0 K. vandals set upon the colored children, and a regular pitch battle ensue, in which stones and clubs are used indis criminately. Portland is a Demo cratic city ; its moral atmosphere is impregnated with the teachings of Democracy, and even in such cases of lawlessness as the one above recorded the Commercial nnbluhingl v remarks that ' We do not criminate one side more V an the other Can comment be necessary 1 The Boseburg Ensign, speaks of the operations of the O. C. II. R , south of that place, at which the Herald concludes that the Company propose constructing the line "far be yond Eugene.' If the Herald had inquired with respect to these things, it would have learned that a contract had been entered upon, made several months since, by which Hol'aday & Co., are to build the road irom Port. land to the southern boundary of this State, as well as to Puget Sound. The Herald says that a Minister of this city contributes to the col umns of the Enterprise. It misrh perhaps have a salutary influence upon the community of patrons to the Herald, were its Editor to change his base, and cease his wh'lt appeals to depraved tastes by dividing his talent aud pledging more of his S'-ntiments To Religion, Liberty and Law." Governor Woods was in this city on Thursday, en route to Portland. We presume whi'e there he will give the Editor of the Herald an oppor tunity to administer that castigarion. We ara pleased to know that every joint of the Governor' back bone was in its right place, when here. -Legal tenders are worth from to 77$. Gold in New York 76 1 13 1 1. The S. F. Bulletin attributes the fall in the' premiums on gold and corresponding rise in the value of greenbacks, in great part to the re cent decisions of the Supreme Court, the passage of a Special Contract Act, and the prospect of a barmooious administration, We understand that the P.-T. Company are petitioning the Common Coancil for the right of way .thrbngh a portion of the city for the locks proposed to be bnilt by the Company. The Council should grant no more "exclusive" privileges to parties desir ing river frontage, and the Board should see to it that as soon as the shanties at the foot of Third street are sold by the Sheriff, the purchaser shall remove them. There is plenty of private property that can be had for thee depots, warehouses, and canals, without the city ceding its property to persons for self aggran dement. We do not wish to be un derstood as opposing the P. T.

Pease and Kellogg, of the steamer Alert, attempted to run the shute at Clackamas rapids, but the steamer being heavy laden and the wind southerly, she took a shear on the Captains, and all that they could do, with the wheel' hard up, they could not fetch her out, in consequence of which she drifted broadside over the dam, fortunately doing no worse dam age than breaking a hog chain. Pas sengers were generally alarmed, but there was no cause for it, as the wa ter was not more than waist deep, and all could have gone ashore easily had the boat even broken up. - The Enterprise says that the wife of J. M. Bacon, of Oregon City, presented her husband with a boy on the 4'h of March, which has beeu christened Grant Colfax Bacon.

It is safe to predict that Grant Colfax Bacon will, if he lives, not be ashamed of his name as will many of the Stonewall Jackson s, Jeff Jjavis', Andrew Johnson's ar.d J. Wilkes Booths' named since 1860. Mr. Cisco, late of the firm of Walling & Cisco, nurserymen of this county, is preparing for a trip to the East. The nursery is now owned by Messrs. Geo. W. Walling & Son. On last Tuesday we found them hard at work, grafting cherries, of which they will have, new grafts this year 25,0000. They w ill also have 5,000 plums, and 5,000 pears, in addition to the old stock. We are gratified to learn that Mr. Thomas Armstrong, late of MiU waukie, proposes to keep a stiff up per lip despite his recent embarrass ment and that he will come out un scathed in time. There is uo better mechanic in Oregon than Mr. A., and it will be a pleasure to us to chronicle his success. There is some feeling amongst farmers on the west side of the Tualatin, who wish to visit and trade in this direction, that the bridge at Moore's Mill on the Tualatin s not rebuilt. They seem to think that their section is being overlooked by the Commissioners, but we guess not willfully, it at all. A bridge is much desired at that place, both by the farmers and citizens of Oswego. The Apollo Minstrel Tronpe re turned from the Valley on Thursday, and gave an exhibition at Washington Hall last evening. On Wednesday evening they will again appear at the same place, at which time new plays and startling edicts will be produced A letter from the State Rights fishery, at Cathlamet Head, W.

Peter Runey, who was badly injured by a fall, some months since, from Walker's sash blind and door factory, has, so the Register says, en tirely recovered. He speaks highly of the skill of Dr. Chapman, and his recovery wiH add laurels to the fame of a physician already celebrated. Protection to Newspaper Publishers. The following are the laws of Congress touching the liability of subscribers to newspapers: 1. Subscribers who do not give express notice to the contrary, are considered as wishing to rontinue their subscription. 2. If subscribers who have not paid, or der their papers stopped. the publisher may continue to send them until paid. 3. If subscribers refuse or neglect to take their papers from the office, they are held responsible until they settle the bill and order the paper disontinued. 4. If subscribers remove to another place without informing the publishers, and their papers are continued to the former direction, they can be held re sponsible. 5.The Courts have decided that refusing to take a paper from the office, or remov ing and leaving it uncalled for is jrima facie evidence of intentional fraud on the part of the subscriber. T Of course an important reason with us in urging the duty of sustaining a local paper, is that it innr?s to our advan tage. But aside from any personal or pe cuniary consideration, it is boib rigbt and just to do so. A l&cal paper many times contains that most important to those in the country. It is made up. and must nec essarily be so. of that kind of matter that is mot interesting to our citizens. Even the local notices bare a value that is not found in the loreign papers. So also the weekly record of deaths and marriages, and the numberless items of incidents daily transipiring around us. All these make a loeal papei interesting. That me chanic or farmer, or merchant who hasiily says "it is a one-horse concern," has no ust conception of his own position, or has au inordinate a npreciaton ot bis own importance and what is necessary to his mental aliment.
