Exciting Times in Oregon


Our old friend Robert w. Dunbar, Esq, is
having hard time of it in Oregon, with the
Indians. He is Collector at the port of Port
Oxford and thus writes to the Oregon Times.
After giving good deal of news of murders,
&C., by the Indians, he says:
Our town is weak-we build Fort to-mor-
row, preparatory to meet the enemy, whose
approach is step by step.
The garrison here is lily prepared to render
aid, being scarcely more than able to protect
the public property-the command numbers
about twenty-five men. We are certain that
the Indian Agent, Ben Wright is killed, and
satisfied now that all the coast bands will be
drawn into the genral war which is upon us !;
the unchecked successes of the hostile Indi-
ans has put them in possession of arms and
munitions enough to arm all the unarmed In
dams on this coast, and make them equal man
for man with the whites.
Unless the regular army come to our relief,
/ fear that the settlers on this coast will be
cleaned out in a short time. We shall make
the best defence we can with the means at our
command, although nearly all the arms and
munitions in this quarter seems to be in the
hands of the enemy how it is, know not,
unless it be by conquest-there is, fear,
gross blame somewhere. The settlers North
as far as Coquille, are all in town for protection;
it is painful sight to contemplate, to see them
compelled to abandon everything to the mer-
CHESS savage-drag their women and children
through rains, and all the inclemencies Of a
disagreeable winter at so great a sacrifice, and
to know there is no relief Whatever may
have been the origin or cause, of this war,
here are innocent parties, good and peaceable
citizens, struggling against the vicissitudcs of
this country, exposed to the scalping knife of
savage warfare, or compelled to abandon the
results of many hard months toll.
How Ion will the government withhold her
protection to these defenceless people F.? We
have not the men to meet the combined Indi-
an forces of the South, now reinforced by the
coast bands and our position is such that at
best we cannot expect to hold out for great
length of time.
We have no further news from Rogue River
up to 26th- Great anxiety is felt, but we dare
not leave our post. In haste, yours.
r. w. DUNBAR.

TESTIMONY OF LEWIS CAss IN FAVOR OF
WILLARD F1LLMoRE.-In March, 1851, Lewis
Cass, than whom there is not more devoted
PARTISAN among the prominent men of the
country, delivered speech on the floor of the
Senate, in the course of which he paid the fol-
lowing compliment to Willard Fillmore's in
tegrity, and to his efficiency in, 'lpac:tyng the
country" We quote from the Congressional
Globe:
"The Administration has played itself high
in the great work of pactying the country, and
they have received the need of appreciation
from political friends and political foes. 1
partake Of the same sentiment | do them JUS
tice. But l am Democrat and, God will
ing, mean to die one. This is Wing Adj
ministration, but there is no reason why
should not do them justice; and do it with
pleasure, in this great matter of the salvation
Of this country, if may say So l have done
so; shall continue to do so, whatever sneers
their papers may contain, for | do it not for
their sake, but for the sake Of the cou1try.''
Speech of Mr. Cass in the Senate Of the
United States, March TO- 1851.
This was not only a manly tribute from a
strong partisan, but will serve now as with
ering rebuke to those 'lesser lights" of Dem
ocracy, who essay to defame one ofthe noblest
statesmen of America-Millard Fillmore.

suuerintendeut Of Public Ingtruction,

Last week, we published the resignation Of
Rev. Mr.. Smith, who had been nominated as
candidate on the Peoples Ticket for Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction. We are graft
fed to announce that the Central Committee
last Friday nominated Prof CHAs. BARNES, Of
New Albany, as candidate for this Office. Prof
B. is practical teacher of wide reputation, a
scholar, and as fully competent for the high
duties of Superintendent as any man in the
State. We promise that if elected, not only
will he make better Superintendent than the
Rev. Mister Larrabe, but he will never be
charged with specializing off the School
Funds.

The Democratic National Convention.


The Convention will open at Cincinnati next
Monday, june I'd. A great many delegates
have already arrived at Cincinnati, fearing
they would have difficulty in procuring quar-
tiers, and probably in some cases to do prelim-
mary work. 1t is anticipated that "the I'M
terrified" will have noisy time Of it, and per-
haps serious warfare. But all outsiders may
rely upon one fact, that whoever is nominated,
though he be for infamy like Douglass,
for doughfaceism and weakness like Pierce, or
unknoVn beyond the county of his residence
he will receive the united support of the Old
Line party. No Democratic leader big or lit
tie, will risk his hopes of Office by opposing
the nominee.
This being the first National nominating
Convention ever held West, immense numbers
of all parties will be drawn there through Gu
riosity. There will also be thousands of office
holders present-and thousands more who
are anxiously looking into the future to find
out how best to become office-holders. Gin
cinnati will be crowded.
We regret not being able to attend so as to
keep our readers advised of all the doings
there. But we have made arrangements for
full telegraph dispatches, giving an abstract of
every days proceedings. This will cost US
heavily, but we are determined our readers
shall keep up with the age.

We will here remark, that the Telegraph
seems to be entirely used by the Abolitionists
to misrepresent facts in favor of that party.
and we cannot publish the matter furnished
by it without giving place to a distortion of
facts set forth in despicable partizan language
made so by those scOundrels who report by
Telegraph to prejudice the cause of Democra-
cy. This is universal complaint; but in no
instance is it more glaringly manifested than
in their attempts to color and falsify the late
proceedings at Lawrence.-[ State Sentinel.
1t is little strange that the immaculate
Sentinel, with a preacher at its head, cannot
publish the very dispatches which find place
in the most bitter Southern papers, whose ed
itors have probably quite as much cause to
hate Abolitionists as the reverend conductor
of the Sentinel Now, It is notorious fact,
that all of the first dispatches received from
Kansas relative to difficulties there, favored
the Border Rufians, and when the actual
facts had reached us, the telegraph reports
were found false from beginning to end. One
of our own correspondents has complained
frequently not only that the telegraph lines
were in the hands of the Rufffahs, who only
permitted what they pleased to go over it, but
that no letters were safe from their nquisitorial
search, if placed in any Kansas or Missouri
Office along the borders, Letters have been
sent by private hand to st. Louis, and thence
forwarded to this Office by mail, to escape cap
ture. Under this condition of things, the
modest remark of the Sentinel is rather
laughable.

Col. Lane not Here F!

We announced yesterday that Col. Lane
would address our citizens last evening. He
had made the appointment to be here, but, as
we learn by gentleman just from the Capt.
tol, Col. Lane there heard of the burning of
Lawrence, and started Immediately for that
place. He was thus compelled to break his
engagements to speak at Terre Haute, Vim
cennes and this place. But as Lawrence is
not entirely destroyed, he may yet return
We hope to hear him in one or more speeches
here this campaign. There was great disap-
pointment yesterday at his failure to address
our people.
