DsAwISG IT SFEoxG.-Our Contemporary of
the Greenbrier Era, grows excited in the course
of an article on the fire eaters, and other pot-
ical fanatics in this State, and he goes on to
consider the expediency and propriety of
capitalizing them The idea "biles" clear over

respondent of the New York Journal of Com
merce it appears from the British official eDigra-
ton report that during the last forty three years
our Republic has been the destination of three
millions of cmigrants from the United Kingdom,
more than half of the entire emigration of the
period; the greater part Irish. Last year, twcn-
ty-six per cent of the:Irish emigrants came to
the United States. The remittances from the
Irish etnigrants in our Union to their relatives
and friends remaining behind, amounted for the
last ten years, according to information collected
by the Emigration Commissioners, to nearly a
nillionsterling annually This does not include
the sums-probably considerable-which were
sent by private hand, or through merchants or
bankers, from whom no returns were obtained.

OEEGoS, just now, is in peculiar position
The people Iof the Territory were authorized
by Congress toframe State constitution, which
they have done, but Congress failed to pass the
bill admitting the new State into the Union.
This was not anticipated, and Gov Curry with
all the Territorial officers had renqushed office
The Legislature, which was in session at last
dates, had passed many laws under the State
constitution, and Gov. Whitaker was in full pos
session Of the Office of State Governor, while
the entire government was carried on under the
new system. This will be another complication
to hnrass Congress at the next session, when
Senators and Representatives from the State of
Oregon will apply for seats to which they are
not yet entitled.
f. P. BLAIR. Jr., the defeated. Republican
candidate for Congress in ST. Louis, has public
ly announced his determination to contest the
seat of j. Richard Barrett, who received the
certificate of election and states in advance tho
charges of fraud and corruption upon which he
will make the contest He makes nineteen speci-
fications, filling column in the ST. Louis pa
pers The main charge is that illegal voting,
by unnaturalized citizens, minors and other un-
qualified persons. He also makes charges of
double voting, and of partially on the part of
certain election judges, in refusing good votes
for him and admitting bad votes for Barrett
He charges bribery upon Mr.. Barrett and his
PartisHns.
Tue RENEeADEs.-A Washington letter in the
N. Y. Journal of Commerce, says:
:. -
Hickman and Montgomery of Pennsylvania, and
Haskin and H. F. Clarke, will be adopted before
the close of the canvass as regular administers
ton candidates. The present policy of Mr.. Blu
chanan seems to be to humilitate Judge Doug
las and make it impossible for him to accept
the amnesty and grace which win be extended
TO all penlteOt insurgents. The removal of Mr.
Davidson and appointment of some before un-
heard ofBuchananite as Marshal Of the northern
district OF Illinois, proves the applicability Of
Mr.. Buchanan. Gen. Davidson was appointed
in June last, after warm canvass, against nu-
merouS competitors. 1t is now evident that he
was put in only to wound his patron, Judge D.,
more deeply by his election.

MIcHIGAN.-The Democratic State Conven-
tion met Mt Detroit on the Cd inst.-the Hon.
Robert McCleland presiding. The Administra-
ton was Overwhelmingly defeated. The Hon,
Charles F. Stuart received the nomination for
Governor by decided majority on the third

Ucrtiser says:
1.-THE great battle for supremacy in Michigan
came off in this city yesterday, between the
National Administration army of otlce-holders
on the one side, and the Douglas Democracy on
the other. The result has been most dis.
graceful and ignominious defeat of the Admins.

Cass. Hencetorth they must be ranked amongst
the things that were. The Administration is
no'chere in Michigan. The whole party, with
the exception of few insignificant Postmas-
tiers, was in the Convention, and was shanofally
beaten on an issue it had sent orders from
Washington to be raised. That issue was the
question of Charles +. Stuarts nomination.
