For the Journal.
DUBLIN COUNTY, June 81.
MeSSrS. Editors:

MeSSrS. Editors:
have read in the Observer, of the 26th in
slant, an editorial, stating that David Reid. of
Wilmington, has announced himself in hand
bills, as candidate for Congress from the
9TH district, of course in opposition to Mr..
Ashe, the nominee of the Clinton Convention.
Be assured, Messrs. Editors, this announce
ment has come upon our party, in this section,
with establishment. have had considerable
intercourse with Mr.. Reid, and always look
ed upon him as being too good democrat to
pursue course which must be injurious both
to himself and our party. What has induced
him to oppose the nomination of the party, is
more than ] am able to comprehend. Mr..
Reid must know full we'll that there is no
earthly chance of his election, unless he ex-
poets to divide his party, and procure support
enough from the federalists 10 elect him. If
this is MIR. Reds expectation. must confess
that my opinion of his democracy is materially
shaken. l have always looked upon Mr..
Reid as a sound democrat, and am yet I'M
willing to believe he has changed his princi-
nles: still his course in this matter really looks
to say the least of it-bad. / am not gong
into lengthy argument about the matter. but
would respectfully put the question TO Mr.
Reid, If he should be elected by federal votes,
will he not be under obligations to that party,
and, in a great measure, have to do many a
dirty act which, feel sure, his conscience
will bitterly reprove him for: Now, for one
and have heard number of others express
themselves likewise, | cared not who the
Clinton Convention brought out, am content
to support the nominee Had Mr.. Reid been
that person, would as readily have supported
him, as I now do Mr.. Ashe. This know tc
be the feelings of the democrats OF this sec
ton, or at least a very large majority OF them
now call upon the democratic party, ont
and all, TO sustain the nominee of the ConVen
ton, and to frown down, with Indignation, al
attempts 10 weaken the strength of our party
by endeavoring to force upon the district {
man who, if elected at all, must owe that cleo
ton to our opponents. Let the friends o.
Ashe shew his enemies that they are determin,
ed 10 stand by him 10 the last-not on account
of the man, but because he is the chosen or.
gan of the democratic party of the 9TH distric,
My word for it, Mr. Reid will rue the day he
committed such suicidal course.
A DEMOCRAT.

From OREGoN-News has been received
from Oregon up to the latter part OF February
last. The news of the organization OF Ore
gon as Territory of the United States, had
been received there General Lane, the new
Governor, had not yet arrived. The Legisla-
ture adjourned on the 18th OF February, after
passing several laws and making number of
appointments. for the government of the Ter
ritory The laws of Congress will, of course,
supersede these appointments. Gold, in small
quantities, as well as extensive mines OF lead,
iron, copper, and other metals, have been dis
covered. Coal has been found IN various pia-
ces. 1t is said that striking similarity OF
formation exists between several parts OF Ore
gon and the gold region of California. 1t is
expected that considerable quantities OF gold
will vet be found there. The timber is said
to attain larger growth than any other coun-
try in the known world. Mill-sites are plen-
4y-4he climate excellent, and the soil produc-
tive. We should think that Oregon offers far
greater inducements for settlement than Cali
fornia. While lumber continues $500 per thou.
sand feet, and provisions command proper.
Tomato price, more money, we think, might
be made by saving lumber and raising pro.
duce in Oregon, and shipping them TO Sar
Francisco, than by mining in California. A
any rate, it would be far preferable for the
settlement of families,

Seldom, If ever, have we been called upon, to

is impossible for them TO procure otherwise.

portraits of two of the present French celebri-
ties: -.

languid- eyed, voluptuous West Indian-with
the languid orientalism of Creole in his mien
The luxurious appointments OF the dress circle
at the Italian, was fitting frame for him.
Opposite sat Lamartine, grave, sweet, and
graceful. He looks older than his portraits
generally make him. He is really SO years
old. His hair is grey-his head large, his
brow grandly arched, and his eyes and nose
of generous greatness, finer than l find in
the portraits. The mouth is large-the lips
somewhat fallen. and it is here, about the
mouth, that faint feeling of vanity is visible.
His manner is that of man accustomed TO
homage-which was offered him this time. by
lady and two gentlemen who were in con
slant conversation with them. The party rose

AS to slavery, there would be no doubt as TO
the issue if left to the people. Their voice is
almost unanimous against its introduction,
and yet negro woman and child were bought
a month since by a merchant of this town for
