The Republican Stole Central Committee will meet in Portland on the 19th January. The Committee will make preparations for the burial of their party in Juno next. The Closing Year. Marion county. Another £eek, and the year of our Lord, 1869, will have been numbered with the BhSttowrpaBt. ’ ■ — An eventful year has it been to the whole world^ It has witnessed the completion of the ifoh track, which connects the Eastern sq J ^Vjflftcrp coasts of this continent together, and the consequent opening to settlement and cultivation, the vast regions of the inte /■¡or, hitherto the home of the Indian and the Buffalo. Another work, second only in mag nitude to this, has also been completed this yaar. .The historic Red Sea, whose crimson waters • * .--i overwhelmed Pharaoh and all bis bostj and upon whose shores shone “the cloud by day, the pillar of fire by night,” has been united by the Suez Canal with the Mediter ranean, and thus made the highway from Eu rope to India. The Empress of France and the Emperor of Austria, both rigid Catholics, have been the guests of the Moslem Sultan. Treaties of peace, amity and commerce with the exclusive Chinese have been made. The last of the reigning Bourbons,—Isabella of Spain, has been driven from her throne. British America has been created an almost independent Empire—an important step look ing towards its complete separation from the Another country. A new transatlantic cable connects our shores with that of France. Cuba, arousing from her lethargy, seeks to |hrow off the power of Spain. The Catholic Church commences one of its General Coun cils ; and in Oregon the first extensive rail road has been commenced. But time and apace would both fail us, were we to attempt a complete enumeration of the grand enter, prises of national and international impor tance, which owe their origin to the year which is about to close. Suffice it to say, that in no single year in this century, crowd ed as it is with important events, has there been so maDy works commenced and com pleted, which will have such lasting effects upon the morals, the politics, and the com- marce of mankind. A Republican Party Muddle. Over in Washington Territory the Repub lican party are rehearsing the fight of the Kilkenny cats after a furious style. Gar field's friends are recognised as the Simon- V Pure Republicans, while sonic of the bed rocks of the party have bolted from the organ isation and cry aloud for “reform”—the usual, cry when there are more “pegs than holes.” Among the bolting reformers we see the names of B. F. Dennison, Chief Justice : A. A. Denny, late Delegate ; Marshall Blinn, late member of the Council; E. Marsh, late Register Land Office ; C. A. Huntington, late pf the Indian Department; J. H. Kellet, late Deputy Marshal, Alvin Flanders, Governor ; C. C. Hewitt, late Chief Justice; U. H. Hale, late of the Indian Department; S. D. Howe, late Assessor of Iuternal Revenue ; D. R. Lord. Inspector Customs ; Fred Wilson, Collector Customs ; J. G. Parker, late In dian Agent'; J. J. McGilvary, late U. S. Attorney; , A. W. More, Clerk Supreme Court; and Fred A. Clarke, late Councilmen. In their address they denounce the “horde of hungry office-seekers” that infest the Terri tory. We should think that the bolters had feasted at the flesh-pots of office to a reason able extent. The fellows ought to hire our Oregon Senator to get them an Indian appro- riation for “removal and subsistence!” ’bat would give them all a bite, and mollify their patriotic indignation against corruption. •— Commercial. 5 O vzrland M onthly .—The January num ber—for 1870 f —No. 1 Vol. 4—of the Over- land, is received.

Men are engaged in putting down a fine wide sidewalk alongside of Read’s Opera House, and on down to Commercial street. On Saturday last, as Mr. George Alexan der was attempting to cross the Rickreal, at a point a little below Dixie, the current proved too strong for his team, and carried them down.

[From the Edgene Journal of Dec. 11th.] R ailroad A gain .—The furor which the “Sage ef Youncolla” has raised by having a preliminary survey oo a route for the East Side R. R., leaving Eugene on the east, has roused our citizens, and the City Council, has made an appropriation of “one hundred dollars, or so much thereof as may be neces sary” tu examine a route, either crossing the McKenzie at a point bedow Spores’ Ferry, and the Willamette at this place, or a route crossing the Willamete below the mouth of the McKenzie, and then come to our place on this side of the river. The main question seems to be at which point the road can cross the mountains south of us, and do so at less expense than the route proposed, which is to cross the river at or near Springfield and join the old survey at the McVey place, about four miles south of this town. [The route/by the Rock Creek Tasa has been abandoned aa impracticable.—E d .
