OREGON GCLCH.--So far as we are able 10 learn
the miners in this locality have every reason to
be satisfied. Quite number of men are at work
high up on the Gulch where water can only be
obtained at this season of the year. Water is now
plenty in most of the ravines on the upper por-
tion. near the divide. To give our readers some
idea of the diggings in this locality we have been
Informed by those who are now employed in them,
that there is no point on the north west divide
where water can now be obtained but good wages
are being made. Work has already been com
menced on the ranch of A. J. Feltcr, esq, who in
due time viii, we presume. be prepared to furnish
our citizens again with every variety of vegeta-

never denied that the city of Worcester paid
the expenses of Dr. Cutters company and Stow
ellis party: 1 erred, presume, in associating the
name of Stowell with that of Col. Dickey.
The Captain says that his and Stowell's COM
panies constituted the force "before whom the
Missourians retreated." The Captain errs. The
Missourians, mder Richardson, who blockaded
the Northern route, did not retreat before this
force. Captain Cutter and his men were South
at the time. The Missourans retreated of their
own accord. referred in my letter to a special
brigade of border ruffians do not say that other
parties of Missourians did notretreat before Capt

Gen. Lane, or of the victories he achieved.

not raise one dollar for arming Stowells men,

The MERRIMAc.--7he Smoke Of Salute.
A letter from young officer on board the
United States ship Merrmac, written at Lis.
bon, describes, in terms more emphatic than
polite the effect of the salutes which were
given to the King of Portugal on the occasion
of his visit to the ship. He says "There
are here five English line Of. battle ships one
French ditto, one Dutch frigate, and our
selves, besides the Portuguese. So when the
royal party started, we all--Englsh, French,
Dutch, Portuguese and Americans manned
the yards and fired twenty. one guns. AS we
were all in lump, l could imagine it a naval
engagement, and wondered how the devil any
body ever painted one. 1t was like the Israeli
ties crossing the Red Sea. | couldn't see the
man next to me. Aboard of our ship were
the captains of the English line of battle
ships, the whole corps diplomatic, and more
uniforms. swords, Sc, than you can imagine.
The king stayed nearly three hours. and ap-
peared to be much pleased. In the ward
room he chatted with the ladies, but did not
sit down anywhere"

Iowa U. S. SENAToRs.--It will be seen
by the report of the proceedings in the Sem
ate yesterday, that the Senate committee on
the Judiciary have reported against the right
OF Mr.. Harlan of Iowa, to a seat in the Sem
ate. The committee stood, against MIR. Har
Ian, Messrs. Butler, Toucey, and Geyer; for
him, Messrs. Toombs and Pugh absent, Mr..
Bayard
The case of Mr.. Harlan is decidedly novel,
and we give a summary of the facts, which
may have escaped the memory of many of our
readers. The election for U. S. senators in the
Iowa Legislature. took place in January last.
By a provision of the Constitution, that and
other Offices are filled by joint convention of
the two branches. The two branches went
into joint convention on the 4th, for the pur-
pose of electing Justices of the supreme Court
and United States Senator, and voted to elect
Supreme Judges first, and the anti Nebraska
candidates for Chief and Associate Justices
were chosen. Pending the election Of second
Associate Justice, the Convention adjourned
to the ne1t day, Saturday. 1t was found on
Saturday morning that the anti Nebraska
candidate for Associate Justice would be elect
ed on the first ballot, some four or five who
had objected to him having withdrawn their
objections. Thereupon the Senate (Which
was controlled by the Democrats) met at 8
o'clock and adjourned itself to Monday, the
design being to prevent the meeting of the
regular joint convention. At 10 o'clock how
ever, pursuant to adjournment, the anti Ne
braska senators came within the bar of the
House, and joint convention was declared,
not without wranglng on the part of the
Democrats of the House, who at length with
drew with three exceptions. The anti Ne
braska candidate for Associate Justice was
then elected, and Hon. James Harlan was
chosen United Senator by a majority not only
OF the convention then in session, but of the
joint convention, all told--he receiving fifty
two votes, fifty being a majority of both
Houses. His election was certified by the
proper officers, and a commission was issued,
On Monday, resolution was passed in the
State Senate declaring the proceedings of the
joint convention null and void, and refusing
to allow them to be recorded in the journal Of
the Senate. A similar resolution was voted
down in the House, and the record duly made.
The question in this case, it is obvious, is
whether factious minority, after having voted
to go into joint convention for certain pur-
pose, and that convention has been adjourned
to stated time, can by adjourning the Senate,
defeat the purpose Of the majority. This
question is for the Senate to decide, and for.
tunately its decision will not affect the repre-
sentative from Iowa. The Legislature of that
State is now in session, and this time with a
clear Republican majority i'll both branches.
1t will Immediately return Mr., Harlan if his
seat is declared vacant by the Senate Boston
Journal.

ALUMINuM.--The new metal, aluminium,
is beginning to come into quite general use in
France. The eagles surrounding the colors
of the army, hitherto made OF copper gilt by
galyanism, are now made in aluminum--thus
tightening the weight Of the flag two and
three.q quarters pounds. Aluminium Is more
sonorous than bronze, and is, consequently.
brought into use for musical instruments. -
Spoons, forks, drinking cups, &C., have also
been forned Of It. The weight of the new
metal is about one fourth that of silver. Fine
silver being worth 225 francs the kilograme,
and aluminium 300 francs, piece Of the lat.
ter equal in size to akilogramo Of silver, will
only be worth rs francs, instead of 225 francs.
Thus an article which in silver would cost so
francs, would be only 16 francs in alumni.

weight. - Boston Atias.

CONGRESSIONAL SNUFF TAKING. = The

Vermont, formerly member OF Congress,
whom he accidentally met at the Capitoi, SAYS
the old gentleman pulled out snuff box
from which he said Henry Clay had taken
snuff many thousands of times. (Mr Clay
was great snuff taker.) The correspondent
then goes on to say that the practice of snuff
taking has become universal il Congress-
During the time that Henry Clay was
Speaker, box that would perhaps hold half
apeck, was secured upon the Clerks desk,
and it was made one OF the duties of the Clerk
of the House of Representatives to have that
box filled with the best Maccaboy every morn
ing. The custom obtains at the present day.
The snuff is paid for from the contingent fund :,
and is as much one of the perquisites of the
members as their forty-tive dollars worth of
stationery and their fifty dollars worth of
newspapers per annum. The cost of the snuff
last session amounted to several thousand dol.
