rTNHE Professor begs to inform the students of the
l. French language that the next academic wear
will be his last in Portland. Ii will thus be the last
opportunity offered to them of learning that lam
guage from the only Frenchman now teaching in
the city.
BY the by 1t must be rather puzzling to know who
Is the genuine French teacher, when Swiss teachers
come out as Partisan teachers, because they have
spent their babybood in Paris, as If it mattered
much whether baby be born in Paris or Geneva.
Since the baby born in Paris was brought in a ten
der age into witzerland the home of his parents,
France. Where did he acquire it! In what Col
lege did he study and graduate, These are the
queries student ought to make if he wishes to avoid
taking the brogue of the country in which such
teachers have been brought up and educated. A
thorough Frenchman only can realize the difficulty
of eradcating an accent THUS acquired.
The Professor thankfully acknowledges receptions
of sundry notes from his friends expressing their

The Elections.

One year ago, the Democrats swept Chi
cago, electing Francis G. Sherman Mayor
by 900 majority and carrying seven of the
ten Wards. They have now re elected
Sherman by one hundred and eighteen ma.
jority in total vote of more than Twenty
Thousand, and have barely maintained their
ascendency in the Ward elections. In 9th
er words, in spite of heavy volunteering
meantime from that city, and with the pat.
ronage Of the city in their hands, they have
drifted so far to leeward that they are cer-
tain to be wrecked on the next trial
Springfield, the capital of Illinois, which
went Democratic last Spring by 200, has
just gone Republican; Cincinnati, which
last Spring was Democratic by 300 major
ity, has now gone the other way by l,250;
ST. Paul, which usually gives 500 Demo,
cratic majority, has just given $50, and so
on. Whoever says the recent Western
elections do not in the average show de,
cided change in favor OF the Union War
party, does so in the teeth Of notorious and
unmistakable facts.

loyal--Sufferings ofTennessee Reb-
els.
A correspondent of the PHILADELPHIA
Press, writing from Franklin Tennessee,
thus explains Gen. Grapger's method O.
treating loyal and disloyal people,:
There are but half a dozen Union fam.
lilies in franklin, OUT of a population of one
Thousand five hundred inhabitants. The
Union people are put to no Inconvenience
and are allowed to go anywhere within our
lines, while the Socessionists, male aud fe-
male, land especially the ladies', who gen
orally get all they desire from our comman-
ders of posts, are deprived of all privileges,
aud forbidden to leave the town, upon the
penalty of being arrested as spy. When
persons apply to the General for passes he
does not ask them if they will take the
oath, or if they are Wiling to acknowledge
the Federal G3vernment, but inquiries,
l Have you always been loyal subject of the
/ United States? He admits of but one an
swer, preiaced by no IFS and ands. Ii they
answer, Yes, he makes them prove their
loyalty. If they answer No, he inf1rms
! them that he considers that none but loyal
people are entitled to privileges, and grants
none; and all the talking, smiles and taking
I of oaths amounts to nothing with him, and
he gives the applicants to understand that
The misery and sufferings of the rebels
can hardly be imagined. They have nc
FIRE wood, and in two weeks more will have
nothing to eat. Not market wagon is al,
lowed to enter town. All OF the rebels are
engaged in cutting down their fruit and
ornamental trees for fire wood, and in
many cases the owners are destroying their
fences and outhouses for the same purpose.
The half dozen Union families, by order
of Gen. Granger, are being Supplied with
fire wood by the soliiers, and the nec,s
ries of life they are permitted to procure from
the Quartermasters at Government rates. :
Under no consideration are the rebels per
mitted to cross any OF the picket lines, ever
to attend funeral, unless making oath tha
