adyersortes .-Bear always IN mind the
fact that we polled but few over Mil.
lior and quarter votes for Fremont, and
must now poll about two millions for Lin
coin. The six hundred thousand addi-
tional votes for our ticket must mainly be
cast by men who in SO supported Fill
more or Buchanan. Let US meet, then,
every amiable overture more than hall
way let US show that VIC regard all who
stand with us in the present contest as
brethren, selecting candidates in some
cases, expressly to justify that confidence
in our maguanimity which it is our duty
to inspire. We are still exposed to an
adverse majority in the next Senate,
which we must do our utmost to dimin-
ish if not overcome. We must hold our
own in Illinois, Iowa, New York and
Vermont, aud gain in Pennsylvania, H.
diana, and if possible also in California
and Oregon aud even then we must
wait Tor 1868 to give us clear majority
in the Senate, through further accession
from New Jersey, Indiana, and MINES
ota. Let every Republican realize, there
fore, that the arduour labor of replacing
the Federal Government on the good old
track will require persistent efforts, strug
giles, sacrifices, and that each must do
his utmost to secure that benefcent con.
summation.

Oregon Election..First Gun for Lincoln

Oregon Election..First Gun for Lincoln.
The result of the June election in Ore
gon proves the onward progress of Re.
publican principles. The State has been
handsomely carried by the Republicans
and Auti-LecouFton Democrats-Legis-
lature, Congressman and ALL This in
sures the election of two Republican Sen
ators in place of 10. Lane and Delusion
Smith, and the ousting of Lansing Stout
in the House, to make room for Logan,
who was swindled out of his seat in the
contest two yeas ago. This signal tri-
umph is no doubt mainly due to the able
and courageous efforts of Col. E. d. Ba-
ker, formerly Of Illinois, to whom VIC
trust one of the places in the Senate may
be awarded.
Oregon is one of the States which has
been confidently claimed by the Sham
Democracy 1t is the home of 10. Lane,
one of the Democratic nominees for the
Vice Presidency, and in nearly all politi-
cal calculations made since this canvass
began, has been set down as lost to the
Republicans. But the instincts OF the
people defy the plottings of the poll
ticians Oregon proves her readiness to
take her place in the Republican ranks
and by her indignant protest against the
designs of the Slavery Propaganda, adds
new strength to the movement of the
public conscience which will place ABB
RAHAM LINCOLN in the Presidential
chair. Three cheers for her redemption,
and the overthrow of that corrupt dy-
nasty by which she has been ruled =

vast assembly for about one hour, to
which address his hearers listened with
unusual attention. At the close of his
remarks the Sabbath schools gave US one

made the beautiful woodlands re-echo

WHATS TIE MATTER For the last
two weeks the Democrat has announced
that a democratic Kuss Convention
would be held at the Court House at 2
o clock =. NJ. on last Saturday. Wishing
to inform ourselves of the doing of our
opponents, we watched and waited from
2 till clock Z. NJ. to find the Convcn-
ton, but our Efforts were futile. The
Democrats Of "Od Cedar don't like to
make an exhibition of themselves by day
light. We shall look anxiously for the
proce dinys Of the great and harmonious
Mass Meeting of the sovereisns. We
predict that the first mass meeting of the
Democracy will be at the polls in Novem-
Der next, when they will nearly all vote
for Lincoln.

some remarks and toast, to which call
he happily responded; after which, the
Rev Mr.. Whittlsey, of Dursnt, was call
ed for. aud he made few appropriate
remarks. Mr. Bacon offered volunteer
toast, as near as l remember was: "The
Bible our guide; the Sabbath School the
hope Of the Church, and Abraham our
next President" The toast was cheer
ed until the woodlands and prairies rang
with pealiug shouts of JOY. At this point
of the exercises some one wanted to know
if the Little Dug had no friend to give
him a toast, but all was STINT as the
grave after which the multitude dis
pcrsed to their homes saying that the
day had been happily spent.

Senate. The Senate proposed kind of
graduation bill in its stead, and Mr..
Hamlin voted against the Senate substi.
tute because he preferred the House bill,
which was much more liberal. lie has
time and again voted for such law. The
Senate adopted the substitute and sent it
to the House for its concurrence, and the
House refused to adopt the Senate bill
Committees Of conference were appointed
asd compromise was effected between
the friends of the two bills. Mr. Ham.
In voted for this bill, as being the best
that could be done at that session. The
democratic President vetoed the bill
aud on its return to the Senate a motion
was made to pass it over the Presidents
veto. On that motion Senator Uamlin
again voted for the bill, as did every Re.
publican Senator present. We also find
that Senator Fitzpatrick, the man who
was unanimously nominated for Vice
President by the Douglas convention at
Baltimore, voted against the bill, as did
most Of the Democratic Senators present
We wish some of cur Douglas friends
would tell us how s. A. Douglas voted on

that under the circumstances it is very
