Glorious Democratic Victory in
Oregon Territory-Overwhelm
ing Defeat Of tho Know-Noth-
ings.
The tide of misfortune and defeat
still continues to run strongly against
tho bigoted and proscriptive Know
Nothing organization. The last mails
from the Pacific side bring US the &C.
count. of a brilliant Democratic victory
in the Territory of Oregon. That ster-
ling Democrat, old JoE LANE, has been
reelected delegate to Congress by two
thousand majority over GAINES, Know
Nothing. For weeks they have been
stumpipe the Territory together, and
have had a most exciting canvas. The
result in Oregon, as in Virginia, shows
hat KNOWN othingism cannot begin to
.stand discussion and a rigid examination
of its .tenets. The Times here has fire.
quently alluded to "Sam's footprints
in Oregon, and intimated that that dis
tinguished individual was destined to
carry everything before him at the cleo
ton. Wonder what it will say to this
news? Hurrah for Oregon say we
let her come into the Union as she de-
sires, a sovereign State. Her voice will
swell the general reclamation with
which we will elect a Democratic Presi-
dent next year. The August elections
are near at hand, and we expect to hear
that they have gone, too, after Virgin
10 and Oregon fashion.-Ctn. Eng.
