The Flood In Oregon.

The steamer Pacific arrived at the Bay,
on Thursday, from the north, whh dates
from Portland, Oregon, to December 18th
There has been terrible food in the Will
lamette Valley, more destructive, probably,
than the late food 10 this State. The river
commenced rising on the let of December
and reached its highest point on the 9th.
1t then gradually subsided until the 10th,
when it suddenly rose three feet. The prin-
cipal Touring mills 10 Oregon were des-
troyed, together with vast amount of
grain, which has caused an advance in the
price of -four. Two new wharves at Port
land we're carried away, and the lower por-
tiOn of the town was under water. The
water had been four feet deep in MaiO
street, Oregon City, and all the houses 10
Linn City, except two, we're swept away.
Houses were seen going over the falls du
ring two or three nights, with lights still
burning in them. All the houses at Cham
poeg we're washed away aud some of the
inhabitants took refuge in the tops OF The
trees. Eugene City aud Corvallis are re-
ported to have disappeared; but as the lat.
ter is located on high ground the report is
questioned. Every town on the Willamette
has suffered terribly, and the loss of life
must be very great. The steamer Onward
rescued forty persons on the 9th of Decem
Der. Many families were rescued from the
roofs of houses aud barns that bad hoated
off. A small side wheel steamer, under
steam, went over the falls on the 5tb. The
Willamette was highec than ever known
since the settlement of the country by
Americans, though 1t is said similar food
was once witnessed by Canadian traDpers.
The rain had been continuous and warm,

PRoGREss OF BoLITIONIsM.-"Slowly but
surely is the march of the war towards
abolitionisU." SO says the Marysville Ex-
press, and we think the assertion is not far
from correct. Under the impression that
slavery was the cause of the rebellion, and
that an edict of emancipation would speed
lily suppress the revolt, thousands. and per-
baps hundreds of thousand, who never be-
fore harbored thought of interfering with
the institution where it exists, would gladly
hail an act declaring every slave in the re-
volted States free. There is enly one way
to stop the progress of abelitionism, aud
that is for the rebels TO lay down their arms
and return TO their allegiance to the Gov
ernment The sooner they DO this the better
for the interests of the slave owners. 10
the eight months since hOstiiities COM
menced, Missouri. Kentucky, Western Vir-
ginia, Maryland and Delaware have prac-
tically been added TO the list Offree States;
and In view of what has been effected we
are forced to the conclusion that continu-
ance Of the war three or four years longer
will pretty effeCtually wipe out the "pecu-
har institution"

The WILLAMETTE.-By late accounts from
Oregon, It appears that the willamette river
was higher on the 9th inst. than ever before
Anown since that country was settled by
the whites. Oregon City is situated just
below the Willamette Falls, and Main street,
10 which the water is said to have been four
feet deep, is about on level with the water
above the Falls. The water falls between
thirty and forty feet perpendcularly, and
II Il was four feet deep in Main street, the
rise in the Willamette could NOT have been
less than forty feet above low water mark
Oregon City was laid out by DR.. MOLaugh-
lin In l84l, aud, since that time the water
has never before been within four feet of
Main street. The Indians used to cell the
whites that the Willamette wOuld sometimes
rise so high that the falls would entirely
disappear, aud it must have been nearly as
high during the late freshet as dndian tra-
ditions represent.

New ORLEANs.-An eastern dispatch Of
the 18th lust, says information has been
received at Cairo that New Orleans had
been attacked by the Federal forces under
the command Of Gen. Phelps, from Ship Is
land, and that the rebels had sent reinforce
ments from Columbus, KY, To the relief Of
the city. The intelligence, If there is any
truth in II, must have reached Cairo through
Southern sources. There is nothing improb-
able in the report that New Orleans has
been attacked. About month ago, we
had intelligence that the vessels composing
the expedition that captured Port Royal
passed Savannah on their way south; we
have heard nothing Of them since, and moth
ing was known as to their destination. AS
The vessels have had ample time to pass
around the Florida peninsula, IL is not i'm
probable the troops on board have effected
sjunclion with the Federal forces at Ship
Island and Mississippi City and attacked
New Orleans from Lake Poutchartrain.

The SUNDAY LAw.-The Secretary of the
Sunday Committee, at San Francisco, has
issued ciDcuar calling upon the clergy
and friends of the Sunday law to obtain
signatures throughout the State for pc
tition to the next Legislature, praying that
the present law may be so amended as to
more fully accomplish the object intended.
1t is understood that the opponents of the
law will make tremendous effort to have
II repealed.
The Nevada Democrat., 1861-12-21

BRITISH SPEcULATIOEs.-The British Col
onist, paper published at Vancouver Is
land, discoursing On the contingency of a
war between England and America, says;
Fsouimalt would become the rendezvous Of a
large feet, and from there would sail expeditions
to command the Columbia and capture San
Francisco. The want Of defense would render
the latter an easy victory. With San Francisco
the Columbia and Puget Sound in our posses
sion, no offensive operations can disturb us;
The concentration Of large fleet here would
have the effect of making money plenty
The British might hnd the capture OF
San Francisco rather more difficult than
they anticipate. In case of a war the Brit
ish navy will have full employment in pro-
tecting English commerce 10 the Atlantic.
and the home government would hardly
undertake to fit out an expedition of sufh-
cient strength to endanger San Francisco.

Tur CAPTURE OF BEAUFORT.-Beaufort,
South Carolina, was taken possession of by
the Federals about the 18th Of November.
A day or two previous, three gunbOats
went up the river to prospect the place. and
reported the town entirely deserted by the
whites. A Port Royal correspondent gives
this account of the condition Of the 'o"n'
and what they found there:
Some score of the best houses were yislteum eSi,.
among others, those of Col II. Rhett, VI: Eli
Oft and Col. Bramwell-and every ouiiolhg
showed evidences OF the panic which mao sei1eu
the inhabitants, and the saturnalla OF the he-
e,roes after their departure. A few aged slaves
sfEorded ms some information. When 1t was
known that the rebels were in flight from their
batteries on Hilton Head and Bay Point, the
whites in Beaufort Immediately commenceu
leaving. Piano fortes stood out on the sue o.s
walks, guitars and other instruments lay III ull-
ferent stages of dilapidation upon tne pave

picture of ruin and desolation, we oroereu

and here we found property belonging 10 O11cle ,r

entire Fresnel lighting apparatus formerly used

would scarcely be possible to over-estimate the

BEAR RIVER CHANGING ITS CHANNEL
We understand that Bear river, during the late
storm became so completely filed up with grav-
ell, that it was forced out of the old channel, at
a point mile or two above JOhnsOn's Crossing
and formed an entire new bed for distance Of
some six or seven miles, coming into its old
channel again near Kempton's Crossing. The
river now passes Johnson's fully half mile to
the South OF the old bridge, which, were it now
standing would span bed Of gravel some
twelve or fifteen feet deep. The new channel
has been cut directly through range of fine
ranches, and the destruction Of property in
consequence must be very heavy. We under
staad that immense tracts Of the finest agricul-
tural lands, along the river, have been COM
Pletely destroyed by the immense amount OF
gravel deposited upon them by the overflow

INCREASE OF PoPULATIoE.-For the first
three quarters of the current year the arrivals
at this port by sea were %, ia, while the total
departures numbered only 1894 showing net
gain of l4,720. The remaining three months
Of the year cannot fail to show again Of at least
1000 per month, making an addition, by sea
alone, to our permanent population, during the
year 1861, Of upwards of2O, 900 souls. The net
gains in population seaward of preceding years
we're respectively as follows: during the year
1860, 1915; 1859, 3,4O2; 1858, l2,745 and
1857, 1857. The immigration overland has
also been unusually large during the past sea-
son, and has been variously estimated at from
$1,000 to 10000. A very large proportion Of
the arrivals both by sea and land have been
families, coming among us, not for short stay,
to pluck the goose and then abandon it; but

We understand arrangements have been

still reside. 1t is in accordance with the request
of Mrs. Tracy, and also Of the Free Masons and
Odd Fellows of San Francisco, of which bodies
Judge Tracy was a member, as well as his own
wishes, expressed previous to his decease, that
the removal is to be made.
