Latest News from Oregon.

The Oregon Cresen, City Herald says:
We learn from packers jus, arrived. thai
on Saturday, June 2, ;ho Indians killed
four white men--;Iavelers, as far as we
can ascer,ain-and two Chinese, in II
linois valley, o. r., some fifty miles
from here. VIM. Shelly is reported to
have been severely wounded.
PROBABLE OF NER LANE
We conGense the following account OF
the election. from an extra of the Port
land Times:
Eleven counties had been heard from,
which gave General Lane, the demo
cratic candidate for delegate TO Congress,
l,754 majority.
Washington County was Know Moth
ing by twenty-three majority.
Columbia County is uncertain.
Jackson, Coos, Ump4ua, Douglas,
Tillimock, and Lane (excep, Long Tom
precinct.) remain to be heard from, AL
lowing these counties the same ratio.
Lane will be elected by not less than
1000 majority.
The most important question, says
the Oregonisn, submitted TO the people
a, that election, was that Of the Conven-
ton to form a State government. The
returns upon this are very imperfect; but
we think enough have been received TO
indicate tina, it has been d~ecreed that
Oregon shall cease 10 be a territory.

however, TO have a mixture in the ticket,

Isaac Fowler was nominated for Sur.

With Mr.. FIias The people of this
county are well acquainted, and if they
are wiling 10 elect such an Old Fogy

Mr.. McTntire, the nominee for Treas.
u:er is a farmer, as also IS his COMPETE
tor Mr.. Knox. He is well spoken Of
by all who know him as a neighbor, but
il is said that he lacks exactly what Mr..
Knox possesses in an eminen, degree
the business qualifications requisite to
the faithful discharge of the duties Of
This important office.
The Convention, as we expected it
would be, was managed by a few men
who generally Take the entire lead. In
fact it was a complete counterpart to all
attended in this county-ruleG and gov

glorious boon of popular sovereignty: ny

they seen the Executive stretch forth
the strong arm of the government, Tor tie
protection of the settlers of Kansas
Have they even seen any torn, anything
from the head OF The nation, showing that
he would frown upon such lawless VIC
lence? On the contrary i. is clearly ap
parent the Kansas outrages are wlnked
at. The treatment of Gov. Reedef in
dica,es il, and a, the same time tends to
weaken his authority in the territory
Instead of sirengshDing him, and send
ing him back, with the aid and comior,
of Executive support and countenance,
in the discharge Of his difficult mission
Instead Of Going this the government,
ldCklnB lNc COuluBe w iShio'S ~" v
Office, tried to prevent his return TO The
territory by summoning him at the mo-
ment of his departure, TO answer charges
in its possession months before. This
trick so dishonorable and d~isrepu,able,
is pracliced in a manner TO encourage the
Missouri ruffians by satisfying them that
their lawless violence is approved ard
sanctioned by the Executive of the
nation.
And to be thoroughly satisfied tina. the
course Of TIE Executive has had the eft
feet intended that of c~ountenancing the
FRI, a'ing slavery rropagandists, we need
only look upon the attack of Stringfellow
upon Gov. Reeder. Is it for a moment
probable tina. this villain would have dar-
ed TO attack the Governor, had he no.
been well satisfied The Executive winked
at the shameless and violen' proceed
ings of this Missouri gang and would if
he dared, remove Reeder'-HaUkeye.

A, the annual meeting of The Eastern

dent made a report TO the effect that Mr..
Tuckerman, The late treaaurer, has con-
iessed that he has embezzled the funds
of the road 10 the amount of $207,0 900
His de(alcations have been going on for
several years. He offers all his property
amounting 10 but a small part OF the de.
falcaiicn, as security. The President
asks fer n committee of investigation,
and a warm debate upon this subject is
now going on. Otherwise the annual re.
port of the condition of the road is fa-
vorable. L. is reported tina, Tuckerman
had invested largely in sustaining DR..
Morion's claim TO the Ether discovery
some two years since at Washington.
A portion of the defalcaiion Of Tuck
