0n weak from to-morrow will be the anni-
yerssxy of tha greatest day, the mighty pir.
otsl period, oi a great, nation s freedom.
Many will participate in the rejoicing of the
day, and cqoscionsly or nnneeionaly) feel
the delight aaa snjoj-inan Of freedom. Now
that slavery, the great blot of meonaisteney,
haa been crushed by the might of an aroused
nation from existence, we stand before the
world radiant ,i the living bloom of true lib
erty. It is becoming that every patriotic cit

the nation from its inception to its present

States, animated by the same hopes and wish.

ee, iney nainrauy songnt an organization as
much as convenient, at variance with the ex
isting tyrannical governments. Finding, by
experience, coupled with wise statesmanship,
that s closer and firmer amalgamation would
be beneficial, the original organization was
modified accordingly. For nearly a hundred
years tus plan excited the unabated admira
tion of a wondering world; its precepts were
wafted like beneficent angels into the strong
hold of imperialism, softening its seventies:
its principals permeated the peasant and the
serf, awakening their minds to a just concep.
tion of the rights of man, created in the Di
vine image; its doctrines: enoouragedcivUi
cation, fanned .into brightness the flame of
universal liberty, and encouraged the spread
of true religion; and its gifts and beauties
beckoned with irresistable power, the suffer
ing thousands of every land to partake of its
many blessings, and realize the hallowed
sweetness of the maxim, "All men were cre
ated free and equal."
With this glorious record to eulogise the
plan, the millions of throats to chant the joy
ous songs of freedom m the capacity of "sov
ereign people," the whole land smiling in the
amplitude of its self-supporting powers, the
very breath of heaven echoing the grand har
mony of glee in approving strains, what more

Swamp Laads la Orearom.
Secretary Schurs has decided the Oregon
swamp land matters arising in the Oregon
City land office, which were appealed last
November by Gov. Thayer and argued by
Capt. Mullen, State land agent for Oregon.
The Secretary - reverses the decisions of the
several land offices, and holds that the Ore
gon State land grant was one in pretenti,
that there has not been any forfeiture, that
either as to land surveyed prior or subse
quent to March 12, 1860, or whether selected
two years from the adjournment of this Leg
islature or not, and consequently that all
lands in Oregon actually swamped, mnst be
certified to said State. This and the Pen.
nis Crowley decision terminates infavor of the
Stata of Oregon, all disputes between the
United States and said State that have been
pending under the swamp land act of March
12, 1860, for 20 years.

On Saturday last, J. B. Keeney, our Coun
ty Clerk, together with A. Mallory and Jno,
McDonald, two Justices, met as a board of
canvassers, and opened the poll books of
Pendleton according to law. On opening the
poll-books of Pendleton precint, it was dis
covered that they had been tampered with
and 8 votes added to Mr. O. F. Thompson's
M -
vote, and the same uuajwf to Win. Beagle's
vote. The tally sheets were also chanced to
correspond, but the ink, being writing fluid
had not yet turned blacky so the trick was
too transparent. It is not known who did
this dirty trick, but C. E. Jenning, the Dep
uty Clerk, resigned his position and took his
departure with his family for Portland very
suddenly on Monday evening. This should
be investigated 'and the truth known, and
not only the perpetrator, but those who
paid for and caused the deed to be done ex
posed. Pendleton Independent.
wanted. At centerville, a dog that is
not afraid of a badger. One of the latter
strolled along the business street the other
evening, probably to stare in at the shop-win,
dows, when the giddy canine of that town
having a tooth for badger, committod assault
and battery on the lone stranger. Mr.
Badger defended himself, and many an un
earthly howL torn ear or limping tripid was
left in his wake. He oven had the assurance
to turn and chase the enemy back into town.
The spectators, with a commendable spirit of
"fair play," did not try to injure the badger,
saying that if he could fight his way out,
he was entitled to his liberty.

A Good Thino. German Syrup is the
special prescription of Dr. A. Boschee, a
celebrated German Phyician.and is acknowl
edged to be one of the most fortunate dis
coveries in Medicine. It quickly caret
coughs, eolds and all .lung troubles of the
severest nature, removing, as it does, the
affection and leaving the parts in a strong
and healthy condition. It is not an experi
mental medicine, but has stood the test of
years, giving satisfaction in every eaee.whihc
its rapidly increasing sale every season con
firms. Two million bottles j sold annually.
Beware medicines of similar names. Lately
introduced. Boschee's German Syrup was
introduced .in the United States in 1868, and
is now sold in every town and village in the

Twine Mill.
w e are glad to be able to announce, says
the Albany Democrat, that the twine mill in
this city is soon to be started up, this time
by the owners ten of our most prominent
business men. The company Selected Thos.
Monteith, John A. Crawford and R. Bait-
marsh to manage the business, and they
haye already telegraphed to the East for a
manager. As soon as he arrives the mill will
start, and it will have enough raw material
to run on far almost a year i This manufact
ure of twin is one of the most important in
dustries of our State, and we hope to see it
successful. ('-.-;.
We are constantly in receipt of complaints
from our subscribers who ought to receive
their papers at Pendleton and Walla Walla,
that there is the utmost irregularity in their
delivery. There is no good reason why this
should be so. The papers for those places are
mailed regularly every Saturday, morning in
good time. ' The packages are carefully put
up so that when any one subscriber gets his pa
per, the others ought to get theirs. Persons do
not generally care for papers that are kept
three or four days or a week. If this continues
wa will be obliged to investigate, :
Poisoning. We are in receipt of intelli
gence that Mr. Sam Derrick committed sui
cide last Thursday by taking two ounces of
laudanum." Dr. Sharpe was called, but arrived
too late to render any assistance. Mr. Der
rick had been complaining for a long time,
his health being very poor, and his suffering
intense. He had become discouraged as to
his recovery, and in a fit of despondency
terminated his earthly misery as above stated.
Called. During the week we have re.
ceived several pleasant calls from Ed. Sharon,
of the Pendleton Independent.' Of course
Ed. was here looking after the interests of
his paper perhaps looking up subscriptions,
or seeking a compositor or a partner. Any
way, he was here in the interest of the Inde
pendentnt. Crops. The past few days have been very
warm, and fears are entertained that grain
whieh was very tender, will suEer in conse
quence. We hope, however, that this view
of the matter is unfounded, and that the
harvest will amply repay the fanner for nis
labor, and have something left.
Improvements. The march of improve
ments still continues. Houses are being built;
sidewalks repaired and extended: business
houses are increasing in number and import
ance, and an air of permanent prosperity prevails.
