LETTER FROM GEN. LAxE-Thc Washington Goa.
stitution is permitted, by the gentleman to whom
it was addressed to make the following extract Of
letter from Gen. Joseph Lane, dated Winchester.
Oregon, the 18th ult, which explains the cause Of
the closeness Of the vote in the recent election and
the principles upon which the contest was fought
by the gallant Senator and his late worthy colleague.
Mr.. Smith"
1--WE have just now received the official vote cast
at late election for Congress. Stout the romi-
of the Democratic party, Is elcctc-a hard fight

es daily. My late colleague, Mr.. Smith, made the
round with me. Our triumph Is the more glorious.
Is the battle was fought strictly upon Democratic
principles. We took high national ground; stood
upon the Constitution and the rights Of the States
under it and their equality in the Territories; de-
Tended the policy Of our present administration, a.
also the decision Of the Supreme Court in the bred
Scott case. Our triumph was glorious, because Il
was victory over the united Republican party,
aided and assisted by the traitor Bush, Of the States
man. This man. who owes 20 much to the Dcmoc.
racy, turned the whole power Of his corrupt sheet
against the nominee Of the party. As an evidence
of his treason and efficiency rs traitor, Marion
county, in which his paper il published hcretofore
Democratic by from 400 to 5OO at the late election
cast 766 majority for Logan, the nominee Of the Re-
publican party; and an evidence Of his cowardice.
after laboring constantly for Logan, and persuadns
Democrats to vote for him. and although his coedit-
or and all in their employ voted for Logan, Bush
turned round and voted for Stout thai he might still
claim to be Democrat and be the better able here
after to destroy the party or to do i harm! Thank
God, and the true, pure and unterriaed Democracy.
we have triumphed over all opposition; the honor
Of Oregon has been maintained and the administers
ton Of President James Buchanan fully endorsed
and what is Of vast importance should the election
of President in 1860 90 into the House, the Union
10 far As Oregon il concerned will be safe. There
fore all hail to the true and pure Democracy o.

'Therc is then reduction Of our hank note cir.

an aggregate circulation Of g. 753 500, being rr
ductiOn Of little twenty-five per cent or ono
fourth Of the banknote circulation Of the State. A
reduction Of ten per cent in the currency Of CON-
munty is seriously felt in commercial affairs Il il
therefore not at all surprising that whose currcn-

be made keenly sensitive Of the monetary stringcncy

this the worst We afraid from all nc can learn,
that further reduction in currency may Lc deem.

interest against the daily recurring runs made up.
on them by the brokers Of Richmond and Baltimore
This reduction Is not due in any degree tn q sr:n-
gency in the monetary affairs Of the country hut /;
solely attributable to the operation Of the new Law,
which requires all the hanks to redeem their notes
in the cities Of Richmond and Baltimore If such,
be really the effect Of the law il ought to be repeal
ed at once. On the other hand the anti-bank men
assert that the reduction Of circulation BY hanks has
been made for the purpose OF creating monetary
difficulties throughout the State and thereby infu
encing the approaching Legislature to repeal ths
new law. We think this charge is without much
foundation. At any rate the whole question Is one
whose importance should demand close and tho
rough examination at the earliest hour OF the mex
session Of our State Legislature"

Is the day designated in our own State,
as well as in twenty-four other States in the
Union, to be observed as an occasion of
Thanksgiving to Divine Providence for the
favors vouchsafed to US. The custom of hav-
ing an annual Thanksgiving Day is SO long
established, and well llundcrstood in this coun-
trv, that We need not make any observations
on its nature, or recount the reasons for it's
observance. But it is proper that it should
be generally observed, by suspension Of
business and labor, and the attendance on
customary religious exercises, for there is no
one in community who has not cause to join
in the general rendering of thanks to his
Creator and Preserver.
Remember, too, while enjoying the custo-
mary Turkey and Pumpkin Pies" those
less fortunate than yourself, who perhaps, at
the same time are suffering from hunger and
cold--and if you know O. such, let one act
of your thanksgiving be to cause them to be
thankful, too, to Him who has put it in the
hearts of those whom He has blessed, to give
to others in turn.
Printers must be thankful, as well as the
rest of mankind-and in order to give them a
chance to properly observe the day, no paper
will be issued from this office tomorrow.

Gg- DR.. Smith of Rochester, has just per-
fected new arrangement for light which is
reported to be far superior to the celebrated
Drummond light, and perfectly marvellous in
it's brilliancy and power. 1t is produced by
the combustion through peculiarly arranged
burner, of carburetted hydrogen gas combin-
ed with a certain amount of oxygen gas. The
light has been placed on one of the locomc.
tives of the New York Central Railroad, and
an experiment trip made few nights since
The track was perfectly visible from the ma
chine for distance of from twelve to fourteen
hundred feet, so that the slightest obstruction
could readily have been discerned by the en-
gineer. 1t was lound that man with optics
of ordinary power, could, solely by the light
reflected from the lamp, readily read news
paper printed in ordinary type distance ola
quarter of mile from the locomotive ! This
seems incredible, but it is actually So The
distance was carefully measured off by a
practical engineer who was in the party.

Frost can never reach the foots.&&We have
reference to Jno. G. Lennon, Henry Mclean,
d. w. Pettjohn and Robert Fraser, OF the
Pioneer. assurances on the vegetables against
the cold, can be had for low rates. Now let
every farmer who has not good root house
get out the timber this winter SO as to be pre-
pared to put one up next year.-ld.
Big PoRK-rwo years ago there was not
dozen hogs killed west of the Big Woods.
Last winter we did little better, but the
pork was very lean, and not much OF 1t. Ihls
winter the Mcleod Co. farmers have toiera-
bic supply, and what is better, 1t Is big. we
hear Of a number of hogs that have been Kill
led which went over three hundred pounds.
This will do for the third year. Next year
let us have some four hundred porkers in the
field. We intend to be in the list, and are
happy to say We didn't fall very far behind
this year.--It.
THE YIELD OF WHEAT IN MCLEOD COUNTY
FOR lS5S.-We understand from Chandler
and Clyde, who run the threshing machine,
that the average yield of wheat in this coun-
ty, for this year, is about 20 bushels to the
acre. The best crop is that raised by John
Mckeen, who had one hundred and sixty
bushels of wheat from eight bushels of SOW
ing. We must try to raise, next year, the
figures at least one fourth. 1t can be done
with good management and farmer-ike work
manship, provided it don't rain every day
from April to July.-B.
