Falls Encamp ment No. 4, I. O. O. F., was instituted in this city last Monday, with the following gentlemen as officers for the present term: J. M. Pacon. C. P.; A. Noltner, II. P.; S. Ackerman. S. W.; W. P. Burns, J. W.; G. A. Pease. Scribe; Thos. Charman. Treas urer. A number of the members of Elli son Encampment, of Portland: Grand Master E. h. Bristow. and C. N. Terry, of Willamette Encampment, were present on the occasion. In the evening nine new candidates were admitted by dispensation and twenty-seven degrees conlerred. This we think is about as big work as has ever been done in the State. About 11 o'clock p m., a splendid lunch was served in the Hall, which was well enjoyed, consider ing the fact that there was four hours' more work to do. The Camp commences under most favorable auspices, number ing now eighteen members. CcTTixd. Indian Jim cut his wife last Tuesday evening with a knife so severely that it was thought ehe would die lrom the loss of blood before medical aid was procured. We have not been able to as certain what caused him to commit the bloody assault, only that he was drunk, lie was arrested the following day. and in default of $100 bail, will board at the county expense until the next term of the Circuit Court. This worthless Indian costs Clackamas county more than all her other criminalssput together, and it is a pity he can't be put in the penitentiary to make brick and earn his board. Installation-. The officers of Rebecca Degree Lodge, in this city, were installed last Tuesday evening by Grand Master E. Li. Bristow. After the installation, the members present retired to the basement room, where a most magnificient banquet, which had been prepared by ihe Sistei-3, was spread. The tables were filled with all the delicacies of the season, and it was evident that the lady members of the Lodge understand how to get up a sup per. All who were present had a pleas ant and acrreeable time. B ilk ed. Our citizens were most hand somely bilked last Saturday evening by the Purdy & Vincent minstrel troup. A good house was present, and we think the company .possesses sufficient talent to give a respectable exhibition, but they failed entirely here in giving satisfaction. They tried to t.ow away on the Ajax and Lilk the steamboat company out of their fare, but were sent ashore. Going ox a Farm. Capt. J. W.

Our Sentiments- We clip the following excellent article from the columns of the Democratic Era, of East Portland ; The question that should present itself to the advocates of the passive policy in the Democratic ranks is : what will the party gain providing a perfect coalition is effected, and the plan working suceess lully, a disafiected Republican is elected ? To adopt the passive policyto join hands with any of the elements of the Radical party is to renounce cardinal principles which have been the boast and glory of the party lrom the time of the immortal Jefferson through all its magnificent histo ry, replete with national prosperity and success down to the present day ; for though Grant may be defeated the same party holds the reins of power. The de feat of Grant by such means does not signify a return to the Constitution and Union as they were the return of the States to the unity of sentiment that be longed to the days when Democracy ruled the land, but it means that Grant will be defeated that another man as firmly wedded to the same principles that have guided his administration and rendered it so obnoxious to true lovers of liberty and just government,, shall take his place merely a choice between two Radicals. Democratic principles cannot be promot ed under one or the other. In either case both men would be Radicals and the pol icy of the government in accordance with their sentiments. It does uot follow that because the Democratic party shall lend its aid in the election of a candidate of the disaffected element of the opposition that the candidate is bound to follow out its ideas of government or act consistent with its formerly declared principles. The party would have no claims upon such a candidate, and all hopes be fruit less. All that reason and common sense could expect would be the gratification of mere personal hatred and no change in the manner of conducting governmental affairs. The election of either Trumbull, umner. Greely, Brown. Schurz or any other Radical that might be named, w-ould certainly not make them Democrats, but on the other hand be placing in position the very men to whom the Radical party is indebted for its present existence, and to whose tireless efforts may be accredited to a more or less extent the deplorable con dition of national affairs now prevailing. They would be Radicals still advocating Radical measures. The desire and aim of the gallant and noble men who have clung to the Demo cratic faith all through these weary years struggled against defeat, persecution and when all hope seemed lost, were to see the old ship of State surmount the dangers that threatened it on every band. and the perpetuation of civil liberty and republican government, lhey kept up party organization, hoped against nope and held aloft their flag that the old land raaiks might not be forgotten, their re membrance, when reaton once moie found an abiding place in the minds of men. would bung a return to victory ana to national prosperity. It was for this the Old Guard of the Democratic party stood firmly when assailed from every side, and emphatically declared it would never surrender. Will the election of a disaffected Republican bring this all about? If either of the men are elected wtiose names are mentioned will they restore the government of Jefferson. .Monroe, jaciv- son and their compatriots? Will their administration of affairs &hed around the glory of departed years? It might as well be expected that the grave shall give up its dead and the spirits of the depart ed patriots arise from their silent tombs and once more control, lhe idea that with the defeat of Grant and the election of a disaffected Radical would cause more conservative principles to be adopted un til a Democratic stand-point was reached is not sustained by any reason. It is not that these Radicals are displeased with Radical principles that they oppose the reelection of Grant, but that they bate him and do not agree in a few minor points with his administration. The un willingness they- have already exhibited to join the Democratic party is sufficient proof of this fact. A return to Demo cratic principles of government cannot be secured in this way. The moment the co alition was formed the Democratic party would lose its name and existence. It would never rise again. Its principles would die through the force of circum stances, and could never be resurrected. The party would find irretrievable rule the siren whose seductive song of future glory lured it on. would prove its dis grace and the cloven foot only discovered when it was too late. We feel that this is the sentiment of the great Democratic masses of the United States to-day. and we believe we only re-echo their determ ination when we say, if the party must go down then let it go down with its colors flying gallantly at the mast head, untaint ed by treason to the cause or desertion of the principles of the right. But it will not go down. If party organization is retained intact, principles are adhered to, and the motto shall be '-principles, not men,'' it will live in the future, tie pride and emulation of the civilized world. The fact that each election held has shown an increase in its vote, until that vote has become nearly a million greater than the white vote of the negro party, teaches us it has a hereafter glorious and prosperous.
