Jonx Myers, Fixaxcial Agent. V 3 Saturday August 73 1869. TO TI3 PUBLIC. By an article whicli appeared in this t-aper last week, over the signature of Mr. Ireland, its former Editor and Proprietor, the public was apprised of the fact, that The EsTKitriusE had been transferred to new proprietors. To give the full partic ulars of the transaction, would be unnec essary ; suffice it to sa j, then, that the es tablishment has been purchased by some gentlemen of this city, who will continue the regular publication of The Weekly Enterprise, and that the undersigned, has been selected as Its future Editor. Well knowing that it will be impossible to produce a paper that will suit all the various tastes, which exist in this, as well as every other community, we assume ed itorial control with dhiidence and many misgivings as to the result. Eut having accepted the position, we shall go to work iu earnest, and endeavor to make The Exteki-iusk au acceptable county paper. And now, in compliance with the demands of a time honored custom, we will indi cate its future policy. The perpetuity of a Republican form of government iu the United States, is a subject, in which all American citizens have, or ought to have, a deep, and an abiding interest. "We feel stich an interest, and firmly believing that the policy of the Democratic party, of the present time, i3 better adapted, than any other, to se cure that end, we shall advocate the prin ciples of the Democratic party earnestly, but courteously, so far as courtesy is merited by the opposing press. f r s ''.' i 'tr ...

Therefore, in the discussion of political principles we shall endeavor to avoid calling hard names, and using the slang style, into which, news-papers sometimes, inadvertently fall, and instead thereof, we shall state- the facts clearly and truly, as they appear by the record, and then, draw therefrom, natural and legitimate conclusions. If others can conscientious ly arrive at different conclusions on the same state of facts, it is certainly their right to do so. To add more on this point, is unnecessary. lly the payment of taxes, the people furnish the money for the transaction of the county business, and it is their right, to know to whom, and for what this money is paid out. We propose to fur rash them full and complete information on thi3 subject. In short, in all things, we shall cndeaT or to advocate tLat which is right, or likely to be a public benefit, and expose that which we regard as wrong. 1. M. McKKN'NEY. -.fr- "Wheat Ckoi-s. The Xcio Yurie IRrald of July 17th says : 'There is an enormous breadth of small grain planted, and had there been no drawbacks would have produced an un paralleled crop, so much so, that should it be damaged to the extent of over one half we shall still secure a good average crop.

ToVwif- I Cl'S alia encouraging v.hijj.u juh- j j gration : The following just observations j are irom me ueau o. " With owi-r nrriv.'i Or Clieai) lll- nese labor, Americans and Euro peans will bo promoted from drudg ery to direction, from physical toil to intellectual foremanship and command. With every accession of capital,hc diversity of the modes in which it can be applied, and the rapidity with which it can be turn ed over, will afford, the capitalists a larger income irom a less rate ot profit. Poth the growth of cheap r-i rit.nl and the immigration of cheap labor, will lessen the cost of t . i' n it . production oi an xne uecossanes oi life, aud hence will lessen thc nom inal expenses of living. The Labor Unions will be starting on a false scent, therefore, if they consent to drift into hostility to the introdue- I tion of cheap Chinese or Asiatic labor." Our friends do not illustrate their proposition, however, and hence we hope that they will duly appre ciate our kindness in illustrating it for them thus ; There are one hundred white men at work on a railroad, or a farm, at two dollars each, per day. I3ut one hundred Chinamen come along apply for this work, and get it from the white laborers, for the reason that they will work for a dollar each, per day. Then, according to the theory of the above paragraph, the white men will be discharged from the drudgery and physical toil of the work, the Chinamen will be em ployed to do it, and the hundred former white laborers will be im mediately re-empioyed,at increased wages, and be " promoted from CVCTV China laborer. Such talk may sound very pretty and present a beautiful and desira ble picture to short-sighted or un thinking persons, but unfortunately for the picture, the result and prac tice are exactly the reverse of the theory. In the Woolen Factory, of this place, many white men and 'icomai have been relieved of the ''"drudg ery and i ill vsical toil" bv Chinamen who took it upon themselves for less money than the white laborers could take it and live by their la bor, but none of the whites thus relieved, have been promoted from drudgery to direction, but on the contrary, have been compelled to seek other and harder fields of toil, -u ere they could labor again, or remain idle, and take the chances of starving. Hundreds of Chinamen arc now employed on the Oregon Central Kailroad, occupying tlie places that ought to be filled with white men, yet these white men that have been thus saved thereby from this "drud gery and physical toil," have not yet been promoted to take intellec tual, or other command, over the Celestials. Andthus It will be al wavs. Yet, in the face of such facts, the Republican Journals are zeal ously endeavoring to allay the fear's, and blind the eyes of the laboring man, with the siren song that the employment of Chinamen will im measurably benefit him by promot ing him from drudgery and toil to intellectual foremanship and com mand. What absurd nonsense. Instead of laboring men being i benefited bv the employment of iv ' U -n i " n i Chinamen, they will be deprived thc means of subsistence for t iiem selves and families. And all this, too, to help the wealthy, and for the purpose of fostering, in our never lorni a harmonious part of our social or political system.

AnxiOLi: xvi. Section I. If at any time here after, the President's Mare shall be taken sick, she shall have the right to be attended by the Medical Museum of Washington City, or any other respectable physicians, or physician, the same as any other American citizen, without regard to her stock, color, previous condi tion of servitude, or place of na tivity. Section- 2. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation. An obscene sheet " up the Co lumbia" says it's " a lie" to state that Gift, the California who is going to China- to get laborers for the South, is a Democrat. The statement Ave published regarding his politics came from the Sacra mento lie '(;(, a paper that ought to know. Oreguitiart. The Sacramento Hecoi'dh a very loyal sheet, and acts upon thc proposition that the end justifies the means, whether, fair, false, foul,. or otherwise. Thus one rad ical paper will start a false report detrimental to some Democrat, and per consequence, injurious to the Democratic party, other radi cal journals will publish it as a solemn, truth, and then, when caught in the falsehood, prove the assertion to be a fact (?) by the testimony of each other. Radical conscience must be made out of very clastic india rubber, enclosed in a case of tinkling brass. lb;cir 3rrxixo. AVo lately met With Xr.

Alining has been carried on at different points between Tillamook and Yaquina, for a year or so past, and no doubt exists that immense wealth can be derived from the sands of the Ocean with good min ing facilities and prudent inanage mant. Tlie process for saving the line gold must be perfected, and the best means employed.

Poppleton, Chapman, Giltner and Glisan.andon "Wednes day the accused had a hearing be fore Justice Ihill. On the exami nation the above named physicians were examined, and concurred in the following facts : That Miller's lung was found grown fast to his left side ; that the aorta, or left ven tricle of the heart, was found to be much enlarged and diseased; that two of the coats of which it was composed were gone, and that the remaining one, in certain places, was very thai and iragiie, and un able, consequently, to bear much pressure; and that the deceased was liable to die any minute, no matter whether excited or not; that the blows on the head iiillicted by the defendant had nothing to do with his death; his brain was in a normal condition, the wounds on it being merely contusions of the scalp and that about thirteen ounces of clotted blood were found iu the pericardium, a sack enclosing the heart.
