From the Defiance Democrat
Stand back for Defiance County!

Wu1GGERx CAN'T SH1NE!!"--It is with
pleasure we announce to the democracy OF
the State, that we have met the coons and
they are ours. The democracy of Defiance
county have covered themselves all over
with glory. We have elected our whole
ticket, varying from 81 to 100 majority
Taking into consideration that the townships
which compose the county of Defiance were
very nearly balanced at the fall elections, it
is indeed glorious victory. To know that
the democracy are triumphant is glory enough
for one week, without giving the vote. We
will give the official in our next paper.
We acknowledge that our democratic
friends in Wyandotte have done first rate
but we think the Defiance county democracy
have thrown them in the shade. What say
you, Governor Orr?
Medary, we should like to have your big
rooster, as ours is rather too small to do our
victory justice.

From the Toledo Blade.
California,

The Xenia Torch Light says there is a
gentleman residing in Cincinnati who has
made two or three journeys to Oregon and
California. He has conducted several COM
panies of settlers into the latter county,
More than two thousand persons are already
there and anxiously welcome the arrival of
evere new settler from the States.
Upper California is undoubtedly the choi-
cest spot by rature ON the Continent of
North America-considered as to soil, eli
mate, position &C., and we would cheerfully
sanction the purchase of it by our govern
ment of Mexico, at reasonable price. The
following will speak for itself:
CoTToN IN CALIFoRNIA-TnE OREGON
SETTLERs.-We have been informed by a
gentleman, who left the Pacific coast in De-
cember last, that two or three Americans are
about to engage in the culture of cotton in
the lower part of Upper California, and that
they felt confident of raising superior arti-
Gle and in great abundance. Their rancho
or plantation is not far from San Diego, in
lat. 33 NJ, the climate being warm and de-
lightfully fine. The same gentleman in
forms us that many of the Oregon settlers
have arrived in the neighborhood of the Bay
Of San Francisco, in the Upper California,
and taken up their abode there. They re-
port Oregon as poor country-nothing like
the one it was represented to them to be-
and appear thankful that the opportunity has
been afforded them of leaving it and reaching
a more fruitful and genial cline. So pro-
ductive is the land in the neighborhood of
San Francisco, that one bushel Of wheat
sown frequently yields crop of seventy-fve
bushels, and this with very little trouble,
while the climate is so dry and pure that
sickness is almost unknown. To illustrate
the remarkable dryness of the climate, it is
but necessary to state that wheel vehicles,
furniture, &C., manufactured in New Eng
land of the best seasoned timber, shrink up
shortly after reaching this section of Cali
fornia and fall to pieces unless every precau-
ton is taken. American emigrants are con-
stantly arriving and settling at the Sacremen-
to and other streams emptying into the Bay
of San Francisco. AT the Verba Buena the
English is the principal language spoken,
the Alcade being an American, ,and the time is
not far distant when this part Of California
will TEEN with Anglo-Saxon civilization and
the thrifty products of Anglo-Saxon hands.

ty at any period of our political contests
The triumph of the Nativists last Spring, WIS
but cypher compared with this brilliant
achievement Then the Natvists left 10 the
Wings only an Assessor in the Second Ward,
to soothe the bitterness of defeat. We have
now allowed them, the Natives, but claim
to constable in the same Ward, nominated
and elected by the joint action of the Wings
and Nativists. This may be considered
equal TO about one-half of a trophy. Then
the Nativists had TO yield TO us five and a
half wards; now, we allow to them not one,
and TO the Wings only two wards. Then
Harper's majority was near 1000, now Have
meyers approaches TO 1000, showing a gain
on the popular vote of over 10000. Have
meyers majority over Selden is about 5000.
Indeed, Havemeyer lacks but a few hundred
votes of having majority over Selden and
Harper combined.

A BOLD FEAT--A few days since, a
young man in the employment of Messrs.
Dodge g. Graves, of this village, whilst en-
gagged in driving load ofpassengers between
here and Logansport, had his horses startled
by a strange looking animal passing their
front. 1t jumped up about ten feet and fix
ing itself in crouch, thought to amuse the
young man by showing what a beautiful set
of grinders it had. He levelled his pistol
and killed large Catamount. 1t was for
tunate, for him, that he made dead shot
for had he but wounded the animal, his des-
ruction would have been inevitable.--Mile's

Eyes Right.

"Tall oaks from little acorns grow" Once
upon time, the people of Ohio sent Tom tc
Congress-for what reason we cannot tell
Perhaps they thought it would please him
and he would do as we'll as any, where there
were none better. So it was, Tom went 10
Congress, and was forthwith sprouting up in
to great man; but the sprouts never would
have looked like an oak, had il not been for
happy thought-a minute germ which made
its appearance in the brain of our hero,
Tom. Military chieftains were on the tapis
"a whig military chieftain. Now although
whiggery did express lis horror once of mill
tary fame as a recommendation for civil Of
fee, and read homilies on the dangers of en-
couraging pretensions founded on such a
basis, yet whiggery was only afraid of it in a
democratic candidate! II did very we'll in a
whig. Some wings, it is true, thought it
somewhat inconsistent TO lay too much stress
on the military reputation of their candidate,
and contended that he had not enough of it
TO hurt him; but the majority considered
that the little he had, should be made the
most Of
"The high military qualifications of the
whig candidate of 1910, was assailed; and it
was necessary TO defe nd it. And here
started up the germ spoken Of. Tom was
Colonel; he had seen service. Many stub
ble-feld in hot summers day, had borne
witness 10 his sweat and toll in the service
of his country; and many a bottle and wa
termellon had solaced him in the shady
bower after the arduous labors Of the day
were past. 1t occurred 10 Tom-happy
thought-that the assailant had seen service
like himself A sense Of the ludicrous
sprang up into his bosom or throat-why
should it not? Tom is somewhat ridiculous,
himself; and that he should sometimes feel
the sentiment, is not surprising. Now grows
the sprout. Shut up in his room-close hid
from common eyes, Tom walks the floor
whilst he trims and nurtures and watches the
growth of this little sprout. Now it is ready
to exhibit in the Halls of Congress. Hurrah
for Tonne has made his fortune! Our
readers must excuse us if we change this
sprout into Tom himself; for this sprout is
Governor Tom, and Governor Tom is the
sprout They are one and indivisible. Who
ever heard of the one without the other?
He is Governor; and now again is not Cover
nor; and now he is Senator, and his reputation
for prowess in tho tented field, has secured
him place in the most important body, the
committee on the Militia. We shall expect
we have a right to expect now, from the
constitution of this committee, some of the
most wonderful inventions and Improvements
in the militia line, that ever were heard of.
A standing army will be nothing in compar-
son. Such transccndent deeds of bravery as
will be done in this nation-such execution
upon apples, water-mellons and brandy bot
ties, on the musterfeld, never was before
seen or heard tell of; and never will be seen
again."

The Prosperity OF OREGoN.-A letter
from Mr.. M'Carver, Speaker of the Oregon
House Of Representatives, gives most flat
tering account of the prosperity Of that
region. He says the crops are most excel
lent, and that all produce bears an excellent
price for shipment to the Sandwich Islands
and the Russian settlements. There is a
great demand for mechanics at high wages.
He states also that DIR. Mclaughlin has Just
commenced canal around the Willamette
Falls, which he expects to complete in two
years, at cost of thirty thousand dollars.
1t is to be capacious enough for boats of thir-
teen feet to pass with perfect safety.-Satur-

NATIvErsM To show how contemplate
how anti-republicap, how despotie is the spi-
rit of Nativeism, read the following resolu-
ton, adopted at one of their meetings in AL
bany.
"Resolved, That we recommend to our
young men to organize Native American
Protestant Associations, in every Town, Vii
lage. ward and city in this State"
So men are not only to be prosecuted on
account of the land of their nativity, but
even their religious sentiments, guaranteed
by the Constitution; the rights contended
for and won on hundred fields of battle,
are to be made the cause for waging cru
sade disgraceful to the American name

man raise his foot against them.-Goshen

VICE PREs1DENT-IN CoURr.-Mr. Dallas
returned to his home in this city last Friday
washington, after having finished his first
four days of duty in the Senate, and is now
attending the Courts as usual in the exercise
of his profession.
This fact is worthy of record. The con-
stitution does not debar him from exercising
his profession, though holding the second Of
fee in the Union, and it appears that he has
chosen 10 keep up his connection with the
community TO which he belongs. All were
struck with the dignity with which he pre-
sided in the Senate, and will now be equally
struck with his being the first to take step
new in the history of our country, but beau
tifully falling in with the theory of its instu-
,tions.
The public will read in it moral strength,
able to set precedents upon high standard,
rather than wait for them; Republic upon
the old Roman basis, which could unite the
discharge of the highest public trusts with
the private labors of the forum Or plough

The CRYING CooN-PARTINe SCENES In
THE LEeIsLArURE-ATHE JoUnNAL,-FALsE-
HOOD, &c.-In commenting Upon the scene in
the Senate chamber, when the Speaker, in his
last speech, burst into tears and sobs long
and loud, when he spoke of the probability.
of his never again being Senator, the Jour
nal, after calling our mention of the fact di-
vers hard names, adds:
What we said on the subject was based
on the conduct of both political parties,
having special reference TO one member of
the opposition, who voted against the resolu-
ton of thanks to the Speaker, He felt that
he had done the old mani injustice, and
he gave honorable testimony of it-honora-
BILE TO his heart at least"
The Senators who voted against the resol
luton of thanks to the Speaker were Messrs.
Baldwin and Waters! They did "the
old man"-as the Journal, in its attempt to
elicit sympathy, calls Col. Cbambers-no,
injustice; and the insinuaton that either of
them ever admitted that he had, is a base
falsehood-a coinage from the editors own
brain. They doubtless felt grieved that
they were compelled, by the reckless, par
tial and insulting manner in which Col. c.
had performed the duties of the Chair, 10
withhold from him the usual vote of thanks;
but feeling that the resolution carried q
falsehood upon its face, they could not record
their votes in the affirmative. If the Journal
will name the "one member" to whom it
alludes, we will prove it false. But this,
that pronigate sheet will never do.-Ohio

The ONO CULT1yAToR.-W adopt the remarks
of the Stark Co. Democrat: 1t 'sis beautifully
printed and ably conducted; and ought to find a
place in every farm house. Mr.. Bateham, for
his knowledge, and perseverihg industry deserves
success. He ought to be, and we hope will be,
literally supported. AS the best means of intro
ducing his paper to our agricultural friends, we
shall make frequent selections from it-believng
that such selections will go farther in demonstra-
ting its usefulness than any encomiums which we
could pass upon it. And we hope, also, by this
means, in some degree to make amends for former
remissness in not devoting greater portion of
our attention to the largest interest of our great
State-the interest of the farmer. The following
articles will show the editors ability and atten-
ton, and are worthy of careful perusal"
Rolling aoheat fields, early in spring, is
exceedingly beneficial on loose open soils,
especially where the plants have been hea-
we'd up by the frosts of winter. The present
dry time is favorable one for this purpose.
On close heavy soils it will be better TO go
over with light harrop instead of roller
The few plants that may be pulled up will
be more than made good by the increased
growth of the remainder Try it ON por-
ton of a field and see.-Ohio CultipatOr.

BANKERS TRoUBLEs.--If the bankers have
trouble now, about what they shall do under

with much more safety. They should be

of violating contracts, of repudiating the
