From the orsseaian.1
The Traitorous Pres IN 0rego1.
We publiahed few dsys since the order
u Gen. Wight rslh6ing the 1Ss of IL mS11t
and expresses of Oregon for tho circulation Of
the Portland Adversiser. the Albany Lsqsir~
and Eugene Regisser. Thrss papers wsrs
all disloyal and labored for the destruction of
the Government. The Adrrtisev very prop
erly sx.pwded itself several days before the
receipt Of the order.
W. do not understand tho reason Why the
Corvallis Usios was mot included In the order
Of Gen. Wright. Possibly the paper had not
been placed in his hands. The Usios claims
to be the leading paper Of tho sscssh party in
the State. 1t il quite equal, II not in advance
in treason Of ito late cotsmporariss. We have
now before ~ the Uxios Of the 9Th instant.
Manifsstly the editor 10 in correspondents
with traitors. The paper referred to contains
extracts from q letter. from Richmond, ~.
ceiued in SostAe,x Oregos" dated May 96th;
which 10 introduced to his readers by editorial
remarks. Who "yece;ued this Letter u Sossk.
ers Oregon" we arc not told. The editor
ksows that public opinion would name an in.
in tho records Of the United States Senate.
The letter thus given By the Union Closes -
follows: ee;. e.
II ,oin say to my Oresos .f;iesd.. 4e see
discosyaged. We here. are IL good spirits.
asd do sos dos6: tie fsal ssccess Of ske Sosa1.
en- C01/sdvacv."
The same letter tells his Oregon friends:
"IHe Confederate States uiH serer consent
to any peace only xpos tie basis Of sepera-
tios."
The Ux;os has much to say about abolition
and the designs Of the Government to free
slaves - the object Of carrying on the war
but this letter which the editor publishes with
appreciation, insists that the Confederacy will
carry ON the war until the Government will
agree to . separation Of the States. and that
there is no doubt Of the final success Of the
measure. t
The Usiox closes ito extracts with these
words, remarkable - connected with the let.
ter: "1Ae rest Of tie letter i private"
Unquestionably It contained matters and
things which the Uaioa chose not 70 publiah.
Doubtless II stated what was expected Of its
"Oregon friends" We know Whist Joe Lane
designed to do when be came to Oregon. We
know what Gwin, Latham, Mcconnell. Sho-
walter and others wanted to do in California.
"I1e rest efMe letter ;s pirate" It had
better be kept 20. It might, II publishsd.
cause the elevation Of some individuals.
Can We doubt the feelings and wishes Of .
man who could publish this communication
from rebel of8ceri Can we doubt that hs
has confederatsS who ara acting with him and
sympathising with him Can we fail to b.
lieve that there 10 master spirit In Southern
Oregon who 10 the head Of the rebels IN this
State. and that they are organised and ready
to show what "Oregou friends" can do for
the rabellion7 4
