Grand ROnde Indians.

There is small tribe of Indians that be-
long to the Umatilla reservation, who have
since the treaty and the establishment Of
the agency been in the habit of frequently
visiting the Grand Ronde valley for the
purposes of fishing and digging camas.-
Although belonging to the reservation, they
have never been removed to it, preferring
to roam at will and subsist themselves
rather than fall into the hands of the gov
ernment and come under its jurisdiction.
Being somewhat refractory, they have been
permitted hitherto to follow their own in
clinations, and taking advantage of these
nominal privileges, they have assumed as
right prerogatives to which they are not
entitled. The Grand Ronde valley being
their accustomed hunting ground" they
assume absolute proprietorship over it, de-
nying the right of the government agents
to remove them, repudiating the terms of
the treaty, and forbidding the settlement of
the valley by white men. In pursuance of
this determination, they have given formal
warning to the whites not to trespass upon
their lands, assuring them that if they did
they should make war upon them. Upon
learning of this state of affairs, the agent at
the Umatilla dispatched a messenger to
overtake Lieut.. Col. Maury's command,
then proceeding to the plains to protect the
emigration, requesting that detachment
of soldiers be left at the Grand Ronde for
the protection of the settlers. The Colonel
was unable to do this. The agent there
upon applied at the post, aud we learn that
a company will probably soon be stationed
in the Grand Ronde valley.
We are glad to witness these prompt re-
sponses from the military in sending out
forces to the different points where they
may be of advantage to settlers and ma
terial aid in the general progress of the
country. The forces belonging to this post
are now nearly all distributed in various
parts of the country in active service One
company is at the Lapwai reservation, four
out for the protection of the incoming en-
igraion, and part of company is at the
Umatilla Let another be stationed at the
Grand Ronde, and they will be nearly if
not quite all actively employed for the pro-
lection Of the people and the benefit of the
country

Drafting Measures Pushed For
ward.

The Columbus correspondent Of the
Cincinnati Gazette states that under
thesuperintendence of Colonel Welker,
lately appointed Assistant Adjutant
General, drafting measures are being
pushed forward to completion with
great rapility. Commissioners, Sur
geons and Provost Marshals are ap-
pointed as fast as recommendations of
Military Committees. are received.
When appointed, they will enter imme-
diately upon the discharge of their du-
ties, and give notice to the people.
Forty,eight Commissioners have alrea-
dy been selected.
The same correspondent, writing
apparently from headquarters, says
that, after two days thorough examina-
ton, it is ascertained that there is not
a single exception from draft on the
statute books of Ohio, as far as the
State is concerned. The Governor
himself is liable to be drafted.

Politics

We are sorry there is occasion to turn aside
for an hour from the great business before
the country, and we hate the idea and name
ofa nominating Convention. But the fact
remains that even in the midst of war-per.
haps even with more jealousy and particular
itv than at a time more peaceable and pro
ptiouS-the people must give attention TO
their civil machinery. Primary meetings,
preparatory to a State Convention, are to be
held in this city this evening The citizens
included in the call are those who wish to
put aside old party organizations for the time
aud unite all parties and interests in the es
Sential work of saving the country. They
should turn out in strength, and intuse the
popular element into the movement that ig q.
nominy OF the caucus may not rest upon it.
We find the above in the Cincinnati Com
mercia1 of yesterday. 1t as cool a piece Of
hypocrisy and impudence combined as one
would find in a long time. The editor says
he hates the idea o a nominating Convention
and yet urges his friends OF the so o.caled
Union party to "turn out in their strength"
to the primary meetings OF the most rigid ul
ira and selfish party that has ever existed in
Ohio. What precious scamps the editors ef

HFThe New York Times asked the 1it
bune the other day how it regarded the speech
Of Wendell Phillips, in which he said that
"the sooner this Republic was overthrown,
and the corner stone Of new one laid, the
better" TO :his the Tribune replied in
its issue Of the 18th inst, as follows:
III Mr.. Phillips has proposed to supercede
our present Republic by new one, it has
been solely widt a view to getting rid Of that
0,onstrous and scanda1ous anamoly, boasted
model Republic, wherin one man is absolute
owner and master Of other innocent mems
wives aud Children etc., etc, etc.
We know, reiolns the Times, all the rest.
In other words, if Mr.. Phillips is preaching
rebellion against the present Government Of
the United States Gas jeff. Davis is doing
it is because he regards it as IA monstrous
and scandaous anamoly." The motive Of
Mr.. Phillips acc ,rding to the Tribune, EUR.
ges his oiIense of all guilt, and makes him
"loyal to God and Man." whatever may be
the hard letter OF the law. DO we under
stand the Tribune? 1t is the principles we
are after--not Wendell Phillips. The man
mGy perish, or, what is more likely, 60 to
preaching Unionism again. But the deadly
evil of sanctioning treason by resting it on
laudible motives goes at the root OF all gov,
ernment and society, and we feel compelled,
in the cause Of both, to hold up the heresy
to execration. II the 95ibnneS principle is
defensible, then is robbery and murder blame
less, provided we remove ungenerous men
from the world, and from their goods give
aims to the poor.

In 1856 John w. Forney, now the leader
of the Republican party in Pennsy lvania was
Chairman OF the Democratic State Central
Committee, and issued an adress to the peo
pie, in which the following eloquent passage
occurred.
"The adversaries of the Democratic party
have dissolved the American Union in ad :
vance, so far as by their own action they can
conSummate that direful result They can
no longer assemble in National Convention;
they congregate as the representatives of a
fragment Of one half OF our happy country,
and they arrogate to themselves the mastery
of the other half by attempting to consoli.
date fierce and anatical sectional majority
in every department. of the government
They declare that the country is or the eve
OF unprecedented commissions, and they pro.
claim their purpose to arrest these convul
slons by ignoring and insulting fifteen sover-
eign States of the Union. They talk OF
peace, and in their owp conventions proclaim
policy which must end in civil war They
appeal to Heaven to sanctiy movement
which, if success iul, would destroy the
airest fabric OF freedom on the globe. They
invite our countrymen to support their cause
in the midst of the most irreverent blasphe.
mics of the Constitution. They prate OF
exclusive Anne ricanism, while they accept as
leaders men who proiane the sages of the
past with inconceivable calumnies But they
deserve credit for their boldness. Thev do
not attempt to conceal the aIiul end which
should they succeed, must crown their ei.
forts. Trne to the history of all sectional
parties, they unite men, not by love Of
country, but by hatred of national princi
pies. Their bond of action is sympathy
of antagonisms-not harmony Of patriotic
sentimen ts;and to consummate their purposes
they would sacrifice every great material in
terest Of society. They have already sue,
ceeded In dividing the Christian Church, and
now they would lay their hands upon the
bulwarks OF our liberties; they would wrest
the Constitution from the glorious purpose
to which it was dedicated by its founders,
and they would erect at " ashington soc
tional despotism whose presiding divinties
would be hostility to the equality of the
States and the equality OF the citizens, and
wage relentless war upon the domestic insti-
tuition OF the South ~p

a'I The President has given no intima-
tion, publicly or privately, that there
isor has been any pressure brought to
= bear on him by those whom the Inde-
pendent is pleased to style "the slave~
driving semi-traitors of Kentucky"
4 but he has stated that there was a
pressure on him by the Abolitionists,
and that it was increasing. The lnde-
pendent had an object to accomplish
in giving publicity to this infan Gus ru-
NOR. Is believes Lincoln to be very
weak man, and that he would be in
fiuenced, by rumor of this kind, to
show the world that he was under no
such influence as that represented, by
repudiating the councils of the conser-
vative Union men and adopting those
of the Aboltionists. That was the
idea and hope of the Independent.

Ohio regiments, returned from the ar
my few weeks since, bringing with
him several contrabands, to do his
harvesting on the cheap plan. When
he got them to his residence he lodged
and fed them in his barn, with his cat
tie and horses. The darkeys did not
like that style of living; they said
"Old Massa, down Souf, didn't make
us eat and sleep with de hosses, and
ives not gwine to do it heah, shu!"-
They subsequently, disappeared be-

The Friend Qunkcrs.

We learn that our old friends, the
Quakers, say that they will neither
submit to draft nor supply substi-
tute. One of them remarked that
"war was work of the devil, and the
devil might fight it out
We would warn our ancient Friends,
for we were taught in our youth to say
"thee and thou and to believe that
wars were wrong, that such doctrines
are now TREAsoNADLE, and the conse-
quence prison. We long since, in
pretty early life, repudiated such hea-
thenish doctrines, as that all wars are
wrong, and never expect to 60 back to
the error.
We believe all wars are wrong, which
can be avoided by any possible means,
other than dishonor; and We believe
also that all means should first be ex>
hausted to preserve the peace, before
the first gun is fired. Then we stand
justified for the shedding of blood and
exhausting the wealth of the people,
and not till then.
Now, so far as this war is concerned,
no sect or people stood up more stren-
uously FORTS commencement than these
same Quakcrs. They advocated doc
trines which excited the South to re-
bellion-they opposed compromise,
and cried war as Justify as anybody
could In fact the only opposition to
plunging into the war came from the
fighting Democrats. Now wemust not
be told by these Friend warriors, nor
any body else, that these very Demo-
Gratis who opposed the war being bro t
on, must now fight out without their
help. Walk up, therefore, Mr.. Qua,
ker, shoulder your musket, and if you
are peace man, help us eight for
peace" That is the way to TALK
and the only way. A WARRIOR who
refuses to FIGHT is the most arrant
humbug of all Gods creation, and is
of no manner of use in this world (the
one we now have on handy nor in the
next, (the one which is fast approach
ing)
The man who, at this stage of our
existence, would preach opposition to
war on PRINCIPLE, is either demented,
or else he never read history, nor stu
died human nature. We have got far
beyond the peace point, unless the
whole country would rise up and de-
mand it, thing about as improbable,
as that MAMA will be sent from Hea>
ven to feed our armed hosts Crisis.
