AN IDEA FOR TRAVELERs...-

Fhis argument suggests aaother one,
viz, that when you travel, instead Of
wearing your worst clothing, you
should wear the best to be found in
your wardrobe; because, should the
boat or car become q wreck, Your
corpse will be treated with considcra-
tion. The World judges us all very

publican party Is nowin power at Wash
ington. The administration, in it's exc
cutlve and Legislative branches, is who'll
ly theirs. 1t belonges to them as abso-
lutely as ever an administration has be-
longed to any party during the nation
a | existence. The accident of the re-
bellion has not changed this fact. Nor
can any fusion of parties in the State
elections change it. The political char
acter OF the administration is stamped
upon it forever, and the Democratic
party neither ought to be, nor will be,
responsible for it in any manner what
ever.
Again:
"We fail to see how men who exer-
else right and perform q duty under

Of the Tribune that there can be ''only
two parties, namely: the party of I'M

minority, denounced the Union and "a

again expressed Il willingness to ruin
everything, rather than to abandon their
peculiar doctrines. We arc not surpris-
ed, therefore, that they feel that no man
can oppose an administration without
being dlsloyal to the government, be.
cause they, in their lust for place and

Editor New Oregon Ptain Dealer.
My friend Capt. J. F. Mitchell Of
your place informed me that there is
muca talk in that vicinity in relation to
my secession prociyiti s. T wish through
your very exccllant paper to expose
the error, by stating my position. Po-
liticaly, first. l endorse the principle Of
squatter sovereignty. and non-interven-
ton by congress with the institution Of
slavery IN the Territories; secondly, /
claim: that the place to have fought the
first great battle for equal rights was
In congress, but as the people of the
'Sou:h neglected to do 50, my next po-
sltion was to enter into compromise
defining and guaranteeing equal rights
to all OF the States, according to the
constitution, and decisions of the Chief
Justice Of the United States count. I
thought and still think that compro1a-
Use on this plan would be preferable to
civil war. s.. ri. .s
This plan of adjustment would not
have prevented the government, but
would have facilitated it IN bringing all
traitors to justice--but under present
circumstances we are Furnishing the
masses, and not the leaders who alone
are guilty. Idonot believe in war
Of extermination, or emancipation; either
would be attended with its disadyan-
ages to the nation. If the war is car
ried on to abolish slavery inairectly
we will fail, for that would deprive thir-
teen States of their constitutional rights
but if it is to sustain the laws and the
Government as they were administered
the first forty years of our existence
we viii be successful; provided the ac-
ton ofthe administration inspires the
belief that the latter is their design.
When / am called upon to aid in ear
rying out the laws of the government
according to their true meaning and in
tent, will always be found ready and
willing; but never as has been asked of
me, will Ijoin any unlawful assembly,
mobs or societies to deprive an indi.
Visual or individuals of their just rights.
Within the past six months L have ar
gued with men who said ''let the union
slide,' also with extremists who refu-
sed the olive branch; AID the iliterate
who refused light, just ugly enough not
to understand or misconstrue my mean
ing. This and pair of envious abo-
litionists one on each side Of me who
have famed the flame and sent out these
slanderous reports to injure me in my
present occupation caused line to expl ain
to the people of your county the errors
and probable cause Of those unmitiga
ted falsehoods.

FRON SECESSIi

FROM SECESSLi
We are panied to learn that
tbs seceSSionlsts Of Tenn, have
destroyed the press and material
Of the Knoxville Vhig-Parson
Brownlow's paper. 1t is passing
strange that men never learn that
a bad cause is made worse, and a
good one injured by that intoler-
ant spirit, that violates the free
dom of the press. Every infraction
of the natural rights of man, I'M
der whatever pretencc made re-
suits disastoursly to the cause in
vokins such aid. The vigilance
OF a people NATURALLY jealous of
their rights has ever made it so in
our government; hence every at
tempt to control public opinion
or the freedom of speech or the
press by mob law and violence
will rouse the true friends of the
union, of law, and Of constitution
al liberty throughout the length
and breadth Of the land, to posi-
tive and decided action. Let such
graceless scamps suffer the ex-
IRENE penalty of violated law and
offended justice.
Since putting the above in
type, we learn that the "Servile
lnsurrectionists'--th adorers of
odd John Brown have DESTROYED
the Office of the Democratic Stou-
@or", and the Bangor Democrat.
SUch men, no matter where they
reside, are opposed to free gov
eroment, free speech, and a free
press, and are at heart as violent.
secessionists as any in the South.
A secessionist is an opposer of
the Constitution; Of the suprema-
cy of law over violence and dis
order, of the integrity of the In
ion, as formed by the patriot
fathers. If this government is to
pass permanently from the hands
OF conservative men, to us it is
immaterlal whether it goes into
the hands of "secessionists.' or
".Servile Insurrectionists.' Both
classes have been for a long
time industriously striving to de-
stroy the government, that each
in its locality might have domin-
ION. violence and disorder will
necessarily tend to despotism, and.
the consequent destruction of all
free government.

there is & solemn duty resting upon the
press to kconly Scrutinize the manage.
mcNt Of our State affairs. 1t is not
improbable that before this war is over,
the backs Of the people will be bent
nearly to the breaking point with taxa
ton, aud those who wantonly squan-
der the public money should be stcrnly
rcbukcd and consigned to the shades of
private life. 4 high official who will
say that Uncle Sam is to pay the bill,
and therefore, we had better make as
big a haul as we can,' is totally un-
worthy of the post ne occupies, we care
not how many public sucklings may
arise to defend !Aim
Itseems to bSa burden Of the song
Of the defenders of our officials that the
people must shut their eyes, put their
hands in their pockets. and never in
quire where the money goes: and if
any one dares to hint that it is misap-
piled, he is denounced as a traitor py
every urchin that has put or expects to
put his ladle in the soup. There is
vast difference between State and Ma
tional administrations. The former we
can change in the fall, the latter we
cannot change for nearly four years.
No single official of the former consti
tutes the Government, nor do all Of
them together, and if we can fill their
places with stronger men, we shall
profit both the State and the cause Of
loyalty.-But sweeping assault upon
the President or Cabinet might do inf
mite harm. 1t is no slight matter to
shake the confidence of the people in
the chief authorities, whether civil Or
military. of the nation. Such a course
Iii sht involve US in utter ruin. And
vet We can conceive of case whea ii
would be no treason, but sacred duty,
for the people to protest against the
conduct of the chief executive of the ma
ton, and hurl him, not by violence, but
by impeachment, from his hi Oh position.
Much less is it treason to arraign cor
rupt or incompetent State officials at
the bar of public opinion, and punish
malfeasance at the ballot box. Be it
understood, we are preferring no chang
es at this time: but only protesting
against this constant charge of treason
that is hurled at the devoted heads of
all who challenge the probi:y Of off
ci:.l haracter-Gentlemen, you will
degrade that word treason, until the
unutterable crime to which alone it
should be applied, viii sink into venal
ofense. ..,..
We confess we are apt to suspect
that those who make wrathful -four
ish Of these fearful words, know of
something that viii not bear probing.
The above is all the reply we
need make to the cry of our CO.
temporary in is blatant cha,g S
against supposed traitors in How

nothing in the way of county
printing that won't bear probing
