New York, Dec. 9. A dispatch from
King William to the Queen, ttatei that
10,000 prisoners and 77 (runs were cap
tured at Orleans. The Duke of Meck
lenburg reported that be captured 14,-
000 prisoners between the 2d and 3d
inst. His loss is 32,000. The French
loss 2.000 killed.
London, Dec. 8. The Pott sers no
Lope of better relations witn America,
as the best Americans avoid or are
driven from nolitical life. Men like
Butler wield the political influence,
and ostentatious courtesy is shown na
tions supposed to be unfriendly to
England, who asks no indemnity for
insults heaped upon her in conse
quence of the Alabama matters, but
craves a settlement of claims, not only
because they are just, butas inaufrur
Ming between the two nations a feeling
of closer unity.
A correspondent telegraphs from
Tours on the 7th that the Government
states that the army of the Loire is at
its old quarters, but the locality is not
given. The evacuation of Orleans was
caused by the demoralization of some
new French troops and mistaken strat
egy and the indecision of Gen. Pallad
ines, who allowed two corps to be
overwhelmed by the whole Prussian
army, although be had 200,000 men
within reach. The army of the Loire
consisted of 300,000 men and 1,000
guns. In the engagements of the 3d
and 4th corps only 60,000 French
fought against 150,000 Germans. The
plan of the campaign was devised by
iarabetta, aided by DeVere, and was
either not carried out or its plan was
erroneous.
London, Dec. 7. The town is full
of rumors purporting that Paris will
capitulate on the 10th inst. Great
contractors are known to have prepar
ed immense quantities of provisions
to be sent to Paris, and special con
tracts have been made tor railroad
transportation.
The quarrel between Bismarck and
the Crown Prince has broken out
worse than ever. Clubs say Bismarck
used his influence to postpone a rap
ture between England and Russia, on
ly to secure the taking of the German
loan for eight millions, which will be
brought to London next week.
Wilhelmsboh, Dec. 5. A general
impression prevails that the prospects
of the restoration of the Emperor is
steadily improving. Important move
ments are evideatly on the lapis here.
Distinguished guests move backward
and forward whose names are kept se
cret, and who are constantly closed
with the Emperor.
London, Dec. 7. A correspondent
at St. Petersburg writes on the 2nd
inst. that an order was given by the
Emperor to the reserve Corps to hold
themselves in readiness, which is con
sidered of great importance. This
measure has not been restored to since
the Crimean war. It has been an
nounced by the Emperor that 40 mil
lion rubles wouM be devoted to extra
ordinary war expenses. By the first of
January 497,000 remodeled guns, and
150,000 breech loaders will be ready
for use.
KAITKRS HEWS.
New York, Dec. 8. There seems to
be no doubt the income tax will be
abolished this session. At least a
dtuen bills for that purpose are al
ready presented, and there is a strong
er feeling against the tax than ever be
fore. It ia understood, however, that
a majority of the Ways and Means
Committee are opposed to the immedi
ate repeal.
The following nominations were sent
to the Senate : Vice Admiral Porter to
be Admiral; Rear Admiral Rowen to
be Vice Admiral ; Commodore Jenk
ins to be Rear Admiral ; Capt. Malla
n ey to be Commodore ; Columbus De
lany to be Secretary of the Interior ;

eral ; Clement H. Hill to be Assistant

mission of New Mexico as a State, un
der the name of Lincoln ; another bill
will be reported, to prohibit polygamy
l, if the senate does not act on
the one passed by the House last ses
sion. New York, Dec. 9i The Tribune'
Washington special says, the appoint
ment of Schenck to the English Mis
sion will be promulgated in a short
time. His name was sent to the Sen
ate for confirmation. The President
several weeks ago asked him if be
woald accept the appointment, and it
was only within the last fortnight he
decided to accept.
It was rumored that Russia has or
dered a hundred raitrailleors and a
million metallic cartridges from Amer
ica. , .

ter has received information that Paris
will be compelled to capitulate within
two weeks, and that our Government
has similar information.
CALIFORNIA.

that part of the country. AH factories
have been reopened, the schools and
universities are again in running order.
the hospitals have been almost entirely
emptied of patients; and but few traces
" ' to be seen.
Tbe Russian Question.
After all tbe talk about tbe present
demand of Russia being a step towards
taking possession of Turkey, it does
not appear that tbe Czar has any in
tention to attack bis weak neighbor at
the present time, or that be asks for
anything more than a reconsideration
of the treaty which was exacwd by
France and England after tbe Crimean
war was decided in their favor. That
treaty was almost humiliating to Rus
sia because it required that she should
maintain no fleet on tbe Caspian sea,
where ber most important commerce is
situated. It is true that this exclu
sion of naval armaments was made
general and possessed a show of fair
ness by being made to apply to tbe
fleets of all nations, but it was a direct
blow at Russia as a naval power; for,
by compelling her fleets to outfit at ber
northern ports, which are a great part
of the year frozen in, she is deprived
of any chance to compete for naval
supremacy on tbe seas, and is in a
measure powerless to cnltivate com
mercial relations because unable to
protect them. Such was the intention,
no doubt, of the treaty of 1856, for
France and England wsre jealous of
the growing power of Russia whose
destiny is sometime or other to possess
Constantinople and so be master of
that great pass to the East. They
fought against this in the Crimea, and
baving succeeded they imposed terms.
Russia most naturally improves tbe
first opportunity to claim a removal of
these conditions, and now, when
France is powerless to question and
England has no ally of sufficient pow
er to resist, the note of the Russian
Minister is sent to the leading powers
requesting at an early day a revision of
the treaty made at Paris in 1856.
There is nothing in this demand that
is improper or unreasonable on the
part of Russia, but it falls like a thun
der clap oa the not very clear sky of
Europe.
Russia makes no threat of war, and
shows no hostile front to Turkey, but
that does not change the fact that is
known to exist, and ber claims are telt
to point in the future to the possession
she has always coveted. It is not
easy to see how those claims can be
long denied, and if tbey are denied
Bhe will undoubtedly seek to abrogate
the treaty of Paris by force of arms.
Let tbem be granted (as we believe
tliey will be, for there is no power but
England able to resist) and weball
soon see a powerful fleet bearing thn
Russian flagon the Black sea and making
its way thence to all parts ot the globe.
Give Russia a great naval power east
of Constantinople and she is in a posi
tion, whenever she has an excuse to go
to war with Turkey ,to attack with im
mense force. Russia has already
waited for centuries for tbe hour to
come when she could fulfill ber prom
ised destiny and she will not hazard
success by indiscretion. She will
claim the right to place her fleets upon
tbe Caspian and when that is secured
she can then proceed to fortify ber po
sition, to establish ber naval power
and be ready whenever opportunity
shall favor to make war, and extend
her borders to tbe shores of the Gre
cian archipelago. That is ber destiny,
and Eagland and France, with other
European nations, have warred and
will war against it.

Bdxna Vista, Dec. 10th, 1870.
Eo. Statesman : The weather for
the past week has presented the ap
pearance of an accomplished coquette,
half sunshine and half tears, at which
our people rejoice " muchly." The
river is continually on the rise, and
the boats are passing up and down
with their accustomed regularity.
Business, to nse an Oregonism, is on
the " look up," and everything pre
sages good things in store for Buena
Vista. More than eighty- thousand
bushels of grain are stored in the
warehouses awaiting sufficient depth
of water to carry it to market, and
judging from the fact that less than
half ot it has been sold, it is a reason
able supposition that our farmers will
soon have plethoric purses. Our en
terprising townsman, W. G. Pickett,
who was burned out in September last,
has arrived from below with a large
stock of general merchandise, and has
no ir one of the best stores between
Salem and Albany. W. W. Besch has
added a stock of groceries to his drug
store, and is as busy and accommodat
ing as ever. Not the least remarkable
feature connected with our town is tbe
wagon sbop of E. C. Hall, in which
wagons, buggies, and all that kind of
work are gotten up from native wood,
and tbe turning, riveting, bolting, etc.,
are all done in the shop. The Rev.
Longswortb, of your county, has an
nounced a protracted meeting to com
mence on the first Sunday in tbe new
year, and I have no doubt but that he
will, to use his own language, "make
a wrestling among the dry bones"
when be goes on tbe warpath.
The Buena Vista Temperance Society
held its regular meeting on Thursday
night last. W. H. Smith read a very
instructive paper, which was deserved
ly applauded. Rev. Mr. Longswortb.
and others made effective speeches ia
advocacy of the cause, and the Buena
Vista Glee Club saog in their usual
good style. At the close of the exer
cises the annual election took place
with the following result: President.
D. E. Thomas ; Vice Presidents, H.
M. Holden and J. Fletcher ; Secretary,
W. S. Linville ; Treasurer, Jas. Craw
ford ; Executive Committee, Messrs.
W. W. Beach, John J. Daly, Isaac
Comet, Miss Fannie Smith and Mrs. I
Richardson.
Your paper has a large circulation
here, and alttough you are a 11 pagan,"
it ought to be a consoling- reflection
that you have a dozen subscribers to
one to your "christian" cotemporary.
From tbe above you must not conclude
ns to be all "pagans," though we con
fess that we are lacking in Mercury-al
Christianity.
Our resident physician, Dr. Lee, in
forms me that the people are so un
comfortably healthy that be is enabled
to devote tbe major part of his time to
his store. Allow me to conclude by
saying we are tbe happiest lot ot meo,
women and pretty babies in the king
dom of Webfoot, and per conseqnence,
have " cary" smallpox.
Cosmos.
Bavaria must support now twenty
thousand French prisoners, at a daily
cost of 10,000 florins. This will, of
course, be all counted up in tbe war
expenses. We are afraid, however,
tht Bismarck's bill will be bigger
than France can pay.
A lady, while gathering Autumn
leaves near Leceister, Massachusetts,
was robbed by a man named Harvey
Gould (who came np behind her and
caught ber by tbe waist) of a gold
watch chain worth about $200. The
lady fainted and tbe thief escaped, but
was subsequently arrested.
At length tbe project of a railroad
communication between Hamburg aril
and Bremen is approaching realization
Altbougb only a short distance apar

Operation. Dr. Richardson, assist
ed by Dr. McAfee, performed a very
delicate operation last week, by re
moving quite a portion of each of the
upper eyelids of Mrs. Smith, in South
Salem, as a remedy for inversion of the
eyelids.
Personal. Judge G. W. Ford, of
Chicago, one of the attorneys of the
Northern Pacific Railroad, has been in
Salem for several days. He has been
spending some months traveling in the
interests of that corporation. We had
tbe pleasure of making his acquaint
ance, and found him what all Chicago
men are supposed to be, a v-ry clever
gentleman, and a very pleasant com
panion. Ilia "points of law" must be
all successful if tbey are as happy as
his conversational efforts.
Anotbir Litioart Croak. Gover
nor Grover has appointed the Chm
tian Messenger of Monmouth to be the
litigant organ for Polk county. It is
questionable taste, to say the least of
it, to select for a political and legal
organ, a religious paper, and the act is
calculated to place both bis Excellency
tbe Governor and the Christian Messen
ger in a false position, by making tbe
lirst appear to have a leaning towards
religion, and the second to have an in
clination towards politics by giving it
a share of te spoils.

preme Court was in session in Cham
bers to-day. Judge Hawley and a law
yer aamed Baskins became involved in

ed the Judge's veracity and action in a

ed to. commit Batkins for contempt of

do so, as be had a profound contempt
for tbe Judge. Whereupon Hawley or

MONTANA.
Helena, Dec. 12. Yesterday a party

Chinaman swinging from a tree, about
two miles from town. The remains
were dried and shrivelled, and ap
parently had been banging some time.
Tbe Corrouer's inquest has not de
clared a verdict. Tbe body was
brought to town.
Londoa Dispatches.
London, Dec. 9. London Clubs are
full of rumors to-nigbt of a speedy
consummation of arrangements for
peace and a restoration of the Empire.
Great significence is attached to tbe
manner in which tbe Empress bas been
received by Queen Victoria at Windsor.
The feeling is strong that a victory for
France is hopeless, under tbe Republic.
Private advices from all parts of France
indicate a reaction everywhere in favor
of tbe Emperor. The people are cou
trasting twenty years of order and
prosperity with the present misery and
anarchy. The Tours Government has
proved incompetent either to conduct
war or negotiate peace. Napoleou re
fuses to sanction any scheme for bis
restoration, t present saying bis part
is silent inaction until tbe Republicans
either capitulate or are dispersed.
Berlin, Dec. 9. There was an anti
war riot of a serious character yester
day, caused by resistance to the order
drafting married men. The Landwebr
and the police were unable to quell
the riot, and the military were called
out. Tbey suppressed the disorder,
using great severity. If the fJrder
drafting married men is carried out. it
will give an additional force of 250,
000 to the army.
Mont Belheard, Dec. 8. Belfort is
making a spleudid defense. Tbe Prus
sians acknowledge that tbe siege has
cost them more than any other siege
duriog tbe war.
London, Dee. 9. An influential
committee bas been formed here, witb
Thomas Hughes as chairman, for tbe
purpose of exacting all possible securi
ty tor tbe main en n e or' peace with
America. Tbe committee, which was
formed some time since considers it
expedient to take no public action un
til tbe Eastern question is settled.
The impression is prevalent that ao ex
treme Canadian view of tbe fishery
dispute cannot be sustained. Tbe pro
posal to buy the Alabama claims is re
garded a big job, commanded by a
clique, who have already purchased
claims at small figures, intendiug to
make a hundred per cent. Tbey are
confident that tbe Government wonld
rather have such a large order, and
make the grievances seem greater.
Berlio, Dec. 0. The President yes
terday announced to tbe North Ger
man Parliament that in a note received
from Count Bismarck, King William
had accepted the title of Emperor of
Germany.
Amsterdam, Dec. 9. A telegram
from Luxemburg states that tbe Prus
sian Government bas informed tbe
Government of the Grand Duke that
in consequence ot its having allowed a
violation of tbe neutrality of tbe Grand
Duchy, by the French, Prussia is no
longer bound to respeai the neutrality
of Luxemburg.
A dispatch from Gambetta asks
Laurier to announce that he had asked
au'armistice to enable tbe National As
sembly to be elected, and requests tbat
Favre be permitted to leave Paris to
coosult his colleagues and conduct ne
gotiations. He admits he bas lost all
hope of prosecuting a successful strug
gle, and bas no expectation of defend
ing Tours.
The tforlJ special says a report is
current that Jobn Bright is to be sent
to Washington to negotiate a settle
ment of tbe Alabama claims and tbe
fishery question.
Loudon, Dec. 10. The Time has re
ceived a dispatch from Berlin which
says King William will return to Ber
lin, after tbe capitulation of Paris,
even if war is continued beyond tbat
time. Tbe German terms of peace are
likely to be much more oppressive the
longer the French bold out.
Gen. Cbausey reports on Thursday :
We were again attacked to-day by the
