Congress.
The present Congress will not at
tempt to do much important business,
or to bring about any Tery radical
change in relation to revenue or cus
toms. Tinies are changing and the
ease with which we are reducing the
debt shows that a redaction of taxation
is both possible and necessary. This
matter of Revenue Reform will be a
rallying cry of parties for the coming
political campaigns and will have some
tendency to affect the character and
condition, of the political parties, so
that the Presidential campaign for
1872 will be conducted on issues, in
maDy respects, differing from those ex
isting ot late years.
This Congress expires within two
mootbs, and we need not look for any
rashness in its legislation, because
either political party is warily watch
ing the game, determined to do noth
ing to jeopardize political prospects, so
we may look for Tery healthy legisla
tion, few railroad land grants, and some
attempt to leesen both national expen
ditures and taxation.
Whatever Democratic politicians may
say, aod whatever gains that party may
have made in late elections, there is
little fault to be found with tbe Fort;
First Congress, or with the adminis
tration. The success of both Is estab
lished by improved state of tbe coun
try, which is prosperous in almost every
branch of business, with improved
finances, better credit, less debt and
less expense in the administration of
the Government.
Recent Democratic success, of which
so much boast is made, have reduced
the Republican majority in Coogress
somewhat, but only enough to make
tbe oppoition respectable, not formi
dable. Too great a majority is calcu
lated ta snake party leaders reckless,
while a more even balance of power in-
anrea caution and a better exercise of
legislative power. It ts natural that
some chances should occur, for the
American people are not over constant,
but we look npoa the reaemination and
reelection of Grant as certain to occur,
and the Democracy can make a safer
calculation of their gains after that
event, which will be asarer teet of Re
publican strength than any events
which have happened of late.
Editorial Correspondence.
Portland, Jan. 10, 1871.
The emporium of the great Korth
west is in a Tery wet condition; how
ever mach of the "-ardent" its enter
prising citiceos are in the habit of
takiag heretofore, just at the present
time they are obliged to take vast
quantities of water. I am of the
opinion that it rains here easier and
oftener and more of it, than any where
else in all Web-foot. Tines are dull
here, they tell me; even tbe rain
oands uncommonly dull as it drives
against the window panes and pounds
opoa tbe roofs. The emporium is
watting for something to turn np,
otherwise for tbe spring trade to com

months to cone," it will pay particular

and drink and marry, and do worse,

portlasd and its prosprcts.
Something over twenty year ago
tbe metropolis of Oregon became my
borne, aod its appearance smacked
strongly of a style of architecture
coeval with and strongly allied to tbe
the surrounding wilderness. Logs
lay upon (ts public levee, newly fallen
.from the stumps that stood near by,
which were only dug out years after
wards, and gave place to tbe Crst busi
ness structures. Its growth has been
eteady and constant, and thongh not
so populous as some western towns of
lee wealth, 'we should oe proud, to
recognite that oar chief city has prob
ably more wealth aod business aod
possesses more importance tban any
new city in the United States of the
same population.
Up to the present time the Willam
ette valley has been the principal
- scarce of Us wealth, aod if it can re-
taia and control tbe trade of this val
ley, which seems both possible and
probable, tsere is no reason why it
hould not continue to grow and pros
per. T"je valleys of Western Oregon
will have their main outlet there, and
trade with and enrich its merchants,
and it can certainly be a great city if
it depends alone upon the growth and
development of Western Oregon, and
time only can tell bow these valleys
will develop and. how rich and popa
loas they may become. The conclu
sion t would arrive ai is, that it should
spare no effort to assist this develop
ment and deserve the good wilt of the
valley counties; for, with tbeir support,
its prosperity is certain; without it,
the fotnre of Portland is an uncertain
problem. .... - ... ,
TBI SORT! PACIFIC RAH.R0AD.
It is very natural that the people of
Portlaad should at the present time
watch with interest the progress f the
great northern railway, which is to ex
ereise so great, and in fact the great
est possible influence on the destinies
of the north coast. By the infiaence
and. active interest of onr Senators
Portland has been made a point on this
road, which condition can be easily
complied with, however,' by raooing
the road down, the north aide of the
Columbia, putting in a railroad ferry
on that river near Vaneonver, aod
running a abort line of six miles of
railroad thence to -East Portland. .1
have be. n told within a short while
that whenever the N. P. R. R. Co,
eball demand half a million of dollars
ot Portland, on reasonable conditions
it would be raised and wonld insure
its becoming tbe great railroad center
of this whole region. It is true that
Portland coo Id welt afford to do that
much if certain that tbe North Pacific
Roal wonld come here, across the river
at thik place acd tbeo go down on this
aide aod cross the Columbia some
where near St. Helens. Tbie -would
require the road to he built on tb
acuth siuoof the Columbia river, an
it may t be that tbe expenses and in
convenience of building the road o
ttat side would not be compensated for
by a subsidy of even half a millio
dollars, aod of course that railroa
company will prefer to build up
great city, aud gel rich thereby, to
building op Portland. The chances
seem to be that the railroad will cross
somewhere near Wallula and come
down the other side, and it seems to
me that there is no probability of a
treat city springing upon the Sound to
take the Asiatic trade, unless the road
should be constructed over the Cas
cade Mountains instead of down the
river. For instance: Ships from Chi
na can come to Kalaraa, on the Colum
bia, as easily as to the bead of the
Sound, and uoild ia so to save the
expense of 100 miles of railroad from
the Sound there. Then, would this
Asiatic trade come to Portland? This
simple proposition seems to me to set
tle two things; first, that tbe great
commercial terminus of tbe N. P. R.
R. will not be on the Sound, and sec
ond, that it .cannot be at Portland.
Oregon, however, cannot afford to
build np the commerce of another
State hut should stand by Portland as
part of itself.
TUB. RAILROAD SUBSIDY.
At the late meetmgof citizens, and
since then, by actual subscriptions re
ceived, about half the one hundred
thousand dollars has been subscribed,
aod tbe canvassing comittee are con
fident that tbe remainder will be forth
cowing. The hatchet has been bnired
between Ben. Holladay and Portlaad
captalists with whom such a contro
versy has been so long maintained.
This happy "state of things was only
fully consummated a few days since,
and the last compromise being satifac
torily arranged it is thought the subsi
dy business will be secure, as some
thing .like thirty thousand dollars is
promised when this is all fixed, an 4 it
is considered certain. Portland is
considerably exercised about this sub
sidy and Kalama and such things, bnt
Kalama is all in tbe future and cannot
amount to much lor years to come.

On Snnday evening Chief Lappeus
was informed tbat a young girl, not
fifteen years old, bad entered a house
of ill-lame on Second street, as one of
its inmates. It was not known wheth
er the bad entered voluntarily or had
been coaxed there by bad advice, but
from her youth, tbe latter was the sup
position, so tbe chief went to tbe bouse
and demanded her release. He took
the girl to bis own bouse, and kept her
there over night. Tbe next morning
be asked ber what she intended to do,
if sue wished to go to work, he would
aid her in procuring employment. Af
ter considering tbe matter a v mo

could any inducements make her alter
her intentions. Not having any juris
diction over her, aod having no par

Mr. Lappeus had to permit her to fol

among ber - associates. The girl's
name is Cotton, about fifteen years of
age, stout, hearty and well able to
work if she chose to do so, but from
depraved natural propensities, she lias
chosen the road to moral death.

formation touching the now famous
editor of the " Overland Monthly : "
Mr. Bret Hirte, the author of "The
Lack of Roaring Camp," and other
characteristic sketches of California
miners' life, tnd the present editor of
the " Overland Monthly," has been'
f necessful enough to bring the shabby
publishers to nis leet. Two magazines
nave been competing or late to secure
his individual labor as a contributor.
and one of them has succeeded, Mr.
Harte being under engagement, it is
said, to furnish it with twelve contri
butions for $5,000. A great deal of
tne. celebrity or this now popslar writ
er is due to one of his recently pub-
lisnea poems, called ' Plain Words
from Truthful James," wherein the
"ways" and "tricks" of tbe "bethen
Chinee" are aptly exposed. But Brt
Harte was an equally good writer five
or six years ago,' and, like many other
good writers who had not yet succeed
ed in taking tbe popular fancy, his i
tides were at tbat time refused by mas.

Washington, Jan. 10. The Senate

to mints and assay othces.
An amendment whs reported by the
Finxacial Committee, continuing tbn
coiuHce charge on bullion, produced a
di'custion.
Mr. Cole moved the abolition of
coinage charges.
Mr. Sherman opposed, and Messrs.
Cole, Corbett, Williams aod Stewart
supported it.
Mr. Cole urged his motion because
tbe report wculd enhance the value of
bullion by promoting its conversion
into coin, and to retain coin in tbe
United States. The latter considera
tion was urged as tending to faciliate a
resumption of specie payment.
Mr. Casserly regarded tbe coinage
charge as a tax ou one of the great
staples of the country, tbe effect of
which was to increase the already tare
quantities of bullion now annually
exported from Caliiornia to Europe.
Mr. Sherman objected to the repeal
as inappropriate, and casually re
marked that the Finance Committee
warmly favored the international sys
tem, by wbicb our own coin would as
similate to, and be adopted by, other
nations.
Mr. Casserly, in the course of quota
tions from documents on tbe suhject,

of forty millions of bulliou produced on

The printing fur tbe city of Salem
ttM been done by the Statesman, so
tar as we know, to the entire satisfac
tion of tbe city authorities, the rates
cktwged being reasonable eoougb, aod
the printing required being small in
anteunt, en that the charges for a year
bav never probably exceeded one ban
dred dollars. The Statesman being a
dafty paper, end" deriving its support
io great part from city patronage and
circulation, is the natural organ for
the city government, especially as its
political sentiments accord with those
of tbe great majority of the citizens,
and more especially as there is no
ether newspaper of daily circulation
in our city. Tbe city wonld fizure
email abroad if it could not support a
daily paper, and the city government
i only consulting the general good
when its business, to a legitimate
amount, is made to assist and support
a city paper. We have lately been
asked by a newly elected Councilman
to bid for the city printing in common
with other papers, but do not recog
niz tbat there is any city organ to bid
against, and have only to say to the
Republicans, and others, in the C.ity
Council, tbat the Statesman stands
ready to promptly attend to aoy busi
ness entrusted to it at as reasonable
rates as could be asked. No doubt
our " litigant" cotemporary would
come down greatly from his litigant
fees te secure the city printing, but,
unfortunately, publication in his col
umns would give less notoriety than to
post notices in each ward. It is no
light undertaking to make a daily pa
per io Salem, and it is only accom
plished by preat overwork of one mm,
whose fortunes are connected with the
paper.
Xapolcon and His Friends.
It is a familiar saying tbat tbe maker
of a nation's ballads is scarcely less
powerful than tbe maker of a nation's
laws. In a similar manner, it is true
that tbe friendships of great men are
generally a sure index of tbeir character
and power. There are few instance
in history where this has proved more
true, than with respect to tbe ruler of
tbe Second Empire. Io the friendship
of Napoleon" it is not difficult to trace
tbe cause of his fpeedy decline and
fall. '
The truth which Kinglake so well
o!d of the Emperor, so long ago as the
Crimean war, are of even greater sig
nificance to-day. Louis Napoleon
B.-naparte was never able to convincf
the best men in France tbat be wkf
anything more than an ldveoturrr.
The most distinguished men in poli
tics, letters and the arts he could not,
with very few exceptions, win over to
bis dynasty. In the ranks of the ene
mies of the empire have always been
found the old-time "respectable " peo
ple ot France, the old nobility, tbe re
publicans, the bourgeoise, the principal
poets, histerians, philosopher aud law
yers of the country. Although the
boou companions of the exiled and
needy prince became dukes, du chesses,
marshalls and all manner of dignitaries
under the Second Empire, the feelings
of tbe solid classes did not incline to
ward them, and there were neither po
litical or social sffilictions with them.
These classes were mere lookers on in
Venice. Such men as Thiers, Guizot,
Dufoor, Lsmartine, Beranger, Micbelet,
Jules Favre, Cremieux, Garnier-Pages,
Arago and Quinet and other eminent
men, who have given to France its re
putation, -could never be induced to
give the Emperor more than passive
support, and most of tbem conducted a
bold opposition to him. Indeed, many
of the beet intellects of France preferred
- exile, to a life in France under tbe dy
nasty of Napoleon. Of the colleagues
wbo did the most to bring about tbe
first coup d' etat Moroy, the natural
brother of tbe prince-president, was
preeminent. Like Napoleon himself,
Morny, at tbat time, was a bankrupt
speculator. Prior to tbe notable 2d of
December he had been careful to coo-
vert into cash, and to deposit in Eog
land, beyond tbe reach of danger, all
the property which he could make
available, a financial precaution which
Morny also took in behalf of his broth
er the prince-president. Thus prepared
the great revolution was planned; Na
poleon, and bis principal co-plotter,
having everything to gain, and nothing
to loose. Moray never recovered from
his bad reputation, and, notwithstand
ing his preeminent abilities, never re
ceived, or deserved tbe confidence of
tbe best people of France.
Billault, the first minister of the
Interior, Espinassee, whose name
will ever be numbered with those who
feared liberty, and dreaded not dishon
esty, and Baroche were also intimate
friends of the Emperor, and they were
all men without character oredncation
and of very moderate abilities. .
Of the generals of the army of the
Second Empire similar things might be
said. McMaboo, of the entire num
ber wbo gave tbeir allegiance an res err
edly to Napoleon III., waa nearly tbe
only one wbo was universally respected
by tbe people of Francf. Although
like patriots, they were ready to de
fend their country in the hour of dan
ger., The great Generals, Cavalgnac
Lamoricere, Cbangarnier, Charras and
Trochu, had, in time ot peace, from
tbe beginning of tbe reign maintained
an attitude of passive resistance' to th
Emperor. Other members of the Ka
poleonic cabal were Fould. created
Finance Minister, because he bad paid
some of the debts of honor of tbe vaga
bond Louis Bonaparte ; Bacciochi, a
Corsican swindler who can scarcely
read or write, cousin of Napoleoa, and
Lord Cbamberlin and Persigay the ef
feminate, fawning, literary cesrtier.
It was such men as thesa that Ns
poleoo the III. chose for bia advrsera
and counsellors, aod it waa by sach
men as these that France waste shame
fully betrayed.
Railroad Lands. I. R. Snores,.
Esq., Land Agent for the O. k C. R. K
Co., bas been below for several days
locating the lands on the liae of the
road as far as already coostracted.
We learn from him that a considerable
amount of land is found within tbe
limits of tbe completed snrvtys and
the completion of tbeloratiua hy tbe
Company must be deferred ontil the
surveys are extended to tbe width pre
scribed by tbe grant, wbirh rs thirty
miles on each side the road. It peema
tbat valuable pieces ef land are found
to be unoccupied where few aspectr
aa may be judged from the fact that a
body of one hundred aod twenty acres
has been located as railroad lands
within five miles of Salvia a Rsrik
east direction. ,
Ixdicatiox. At Portland, pending
the settlement of the question whether
the railroad subsidy will be success
fully subscribed, real estate transac
tions are at a standstill. Bargain
are made, conditioned tbat the money
is raised, and real estate dealers there
inform us tbat prices of property will
be materially advanced wbea the thing
is consummated, and it brentr.es a set
tled fact tbat the west side railroad
j depot is to be located within the city
limits.
PORTLAND.
From the JlulUiin : The town of

Tbe Social party at tbe Legislative
Hall, on Tuesday evening, was an
recherche affair. The elite and fashion
able of the city were out io full force,
and everybody seemed to enjoy them
selves as well as conld be wished. We
also noticed some lady visitors wbo
participated in tbe amusements of tbe
evening.
BxAt'TirCL Sxow. Tbe first snow of
the season fell, on Tuesday night last,
ti tbe depth of about half an inrb.
In served as a gentle reminder that we
were not living in South America or

it often rains and sometimes snows,
regardless of tbe proper seasons for
such luxuries, if such they may be
called.
The Beatty Troupe will not perform
at the Opera Honse on Friday or Sat
urday evenings,as they have concluded
to make a flying trip to Albany, on
account of tbe Odd Fellows' ball and
by request of numerous citizens of
that place. We "would say to tbe
people of Albany tbat if tbey wish
to enjoy a good treat they mast not
fail to visit this troupe, .as it is not one
person assuming tbe names of his
family for seven generations back, but
a complete troupe in every sense of
the word. Mr. Beatty aod wife are un

The Corrsct Wat to do It. A
rather rOmautio scene was transacted
in one of our first-class saloons a few
nights since, worthy of a much larger
audience. One of onr young and
newly married men, while out for an
evening walk dropped la to get warm.
Tbe heat effected him somewhat, ayl
so much so that be concluded to uke
a band in a game of draw poker. His
belter half becoming anxious about
bim tallied forth to find ber lost dove.
At last, she found him at tbe above
named placej she twined ber arms
around bis beck, caressed bim in va

, Horbi Stolen. The livery stable of
Booth k Plainoodoo was relieved of one
their most valuable horses on Satur

A; person, we caonot call bim a man,
went to their stable and bired the

Upon inquiry Mr. Booth ascertained
he had stolen a borfo in E.iil Portand

Bnt Mr. Booth feats that no such good

Swamp Lands.
I We have said considerable of late
upon the swamp land question, and
! have published communications fully
! covering the subject aod setting forth
all the facts in the case. It is difficult,
in view of these facts, to consider the
law pu-.ed by the late Legislature any
thing else than a swindle. It was in
tended as such and fills the bill per
fectly. Its perpetrators staud before
the world convicted of having attempt
ed to take advantage of their own
villiany and reap the harvest tbey bad
attempted to sow. After all that has
been said there is no one bold enongb
to champion their cause or defend
them from the direct charge of fraud.
Thite speculating legislators have been
put in the pillory and exhibited to pub
lic gaze as dishonest Representatives',
and all tbeir attempt at speculation at
tbe expense of the State can easily be.
thwarted if the Board of State Land
j Commissioners will pursue a prudent
j conree Hud take no conclusire action
; as to he disposition of these lands
until after the people have bad an op
j portunity to elect another Legislature,
and that Legislature shall have an
opportunity to act npon the matter.
Such a course would at least relieve
tbe Government aod otber State offi
cers, wbo compose the Board of State
! Land Commissioners, of all responsi
j bility. It is tbeir duty to have the
j amount of swamp lands ascertained
j and secured to the State by proper ac-
tion on tbeir own part, and by due ac-
tion on tbe part cf the General Land
OiSce. It will require tbe time inter
vening before tbe next meeting of tbe
Legislature to get all this done, and
tbeu with their report made fully and
before it, the Legislature of 182 can
act consistently (if it desires to) aad
understanding in relation to the
proper disposition of the swamplands,
which can maoy of tbem be easily
made fit for cultivation and should
therefore be reserved as nearly as pot
sible for actual settlers. We nope tbs
the State officers will so act io this
matter as to deserve the respect and
approbation of tbe people.
Tbe Else and Fall or Sipoleon Hi.
The history of France in tbe aev
th decade of the century is as re
markable as ber history during tbe dec
ade that she was ruled by Napoleon I.
(1604-1814). At tbe beginning of
1861 France was the'first nation in Eu
rope, and Napoleon III. was the first
man io France. Tbe success tbat had
waited on th French armies in the
Russian war, and in tbe Italian war
bad atoned tor tbe disasters of 181 2-' 15.
Tbe hegemony of Europe bad passed to
France after the defeat of Russia ; and
though te Emperor's Italian policy
bad by no means pleased his subject's,
it had done much to raise bim in the
estimation of the world at large ; and
France had the benefit of his action,
and to tbe nse lo which be had pnt her
means. Had be died at tbat time, be
would have had a high place in histo
ry as a great and successful sovereign,
wbo, like A gustns, bad obtained power
by baa means, but bad need it so well
as to make men overlook its origin.
Whether he bad' meant to create the
Italian kingdom might be a point for
dispute ; but it would have been clear
tbat tbe kingdom never conld have ex
isted but for bis actioo. Nor was it a
light thing that be had freed Europe
from tbat odious Russian supremacy,
which bad wetgbed upon its mind for
forty years, and tbe continnanee of
which would have been incompatible
with the independence of any European
nation.
Unfortunately for bis fame he did
not die, but lived to add to tbe illus
trations afforded by tbe history of his
family, tbat "naught may endure bat
mulubility; '' aod the changes that
came over his fortune was bis own
work, and can be placed to the account
of no other man. He did nothing but
blunder and fail for almost tea ye.irs ;
o tbat bis fall, astonishing as it was,
w no'liiog hut the -ffVct of his errors.
I!.:s first,, great mistake was bis as
sumption of an attitude of hostility to
the United Slates, on the occurence of
the secession rebellion. Thongs) the
French Emperor's interference in the
affairs of Mexico, was sot caused by
the secession war, it waa occasioned
by that event. When the Emperor bad
to withdraw bis army from Mexico,
ratber than to have it driven out
f tbat -country, by an American
army, and disgracefully to abandoa tbe
Archduke Maximilian to his fate, tbe
French people were not moved to anger
against the American people, bnt they
saw tbat their Emperor bad brought
disgrace npon their country, and he
tank in their estimation. He blundered
again in ltfC3 when he proposed that a
European Coogress should be assets
b?ed, without having first ascertained
tbutt tbe proposition would be accept
able lo a 1 the great powers; and tbe
rebuff he then received' from England
degraded him io the consideration of
foreign el's.
But what SnjnTed bim most, was the
manner in whitn he was managed and
outwitted by Count Von Bismarck in
the interest of PrnSna.

The play at Reed's Opera House last

Ebratuh. In our notice of Mr.
Parrish and wife's dancing school yes

"Sir, jour journal of yesterday con

"Impossible, sir. But tell me to
what yoa allude."
" You said that Mr. M. has been

True."
" Condemned"
Very trne."

" Most trne."
" Now. sir. I am the gentleman my

"I assure yon it is a fact ; aod I
hope yon will contradict what you have
alleged."
" Ry no means, sir."
" What do yoa mean ? Ton are de
ranged." " I may be so, sir, but I will not de
it."
" I will complain to a magistrate."
" As yon please; But I never retract.
Tbe most tbat I can do for yoa is to
announce tbat tbe rope broke, aod tbat
yon are now in perfect health. I have
my principles, sir. I never deceive."
A Short Answer. The inhabitants
of Brownsville have a sew minister, a
mild-mannered, reserved man, wboee
wife is young, pretty, and fashionable.
Ia tbe cbnrcb are several old fogies, to
whom Mrs. Minister's pretty toilettes
and lively manners are very obnoxious,
and, convening in solemn session, tbey
disenssed tbe enormity of ber offens.s
and determined to send one of their
number to represent their feeling to
their pastor.
Deacon Fudge, prolix and conceited,
was delegated to bell the cat." The
minister received bim with his ordinary
grave courtesy and listened , with po
lite atteotloo while tbe deacon enu
merated tbe offenses of bis gsyyooog
partner, winding up with the emphatic
declaration, " We , don't approve of
ber, air; we don't approve." Three
words closed the conference, and the
answer ia its sententious comprehen
siveness was worthy of Grant..
" She suits me," mildly answered
tbe minister.
