REV. Father Gazzol, Superior of the Coeur d.

Indians, arrived here this week on business per-
tanning to his charge. The veteran Father has
grown gray in his Rocky mountain home, where he
has been isolated for the past twenty-five thirty
years. The tribe of Coeur dAlene Indians, amongst
which he has been, are reduced to very small
band probably not exceeding 800 souls. Father G.

Too BAD-Congress, before its adjournment,
passed bill providing that no votes from the
rebel States should be received in the electoral
college for President and Vice President Ten
nessee is counted in ''Secessia," and therefore
Andy Johnson is an alien and candidate from
foreign and hostile country. The Republicans
have placed themselves in a singular attitude.
They propose to fight the South as separate
power, and at the same time run a candidate
for Vice President who resides in the belliger-
ent country. 1t is to be inferred from the prem
ises, that the Republicans could as consistently
nominated for Vice President citizen of Mexi-
co hombre from one of the South Amer
lean States But it was altogether too bad that
Congress took it upon itself to interfere with
honest Abe's nicely laid plans to secure the
electoral votes to himself from Dixie His
one-tenth, abolition vote arrangements were
entirely demolished by Congress in leaving
Dixie votes ''out in the cold" and Abraham S

chiralric Webfooter:
An ill-mannerly boor living in Linn county
recently refused to allow two respectable ladies
to pass with their carriage through his pasture,
compelling them to go several miles out of the
way, to lay down several fences and travel a
good part of the night before reaching home.
This gentleman is known in his neighborhOod

WILL THEY WITHDRAW ?-It is said that quite
a number of the Republican members of the
last Congress, in conjunction with other promi-
inent men of the party in the Eastern States
are endeavoring to get one A. Lincoln and one
A. johnson to withdraw from the Presidential
canvass They request this, of Mr.. Lincoln, es-
pecially, on the ground that if he remains in
the field, rebellion and anarchy will ensue at
the North Now, if rebellion and anarchy is to
be the price of his remaining a candidate for
the Presidency, it would certainly be the part of
duty and of patriotism for Mr.. Lincoln to with
draw. The antipathy to himself and his Ad-
ministraton which exists in the free States, has
been brought about by his wavering course and
ill-starred measures. His Admins ration, as
a whole, has been fraught with misdeeds and
failures, and has inspired among the people in
fnitely more hatred and contempt than respect
or enthusiasm. Therefore it must be evident to
every one that Mr.. Lincoln is alone responsible
for the greater part of the opposition to him and
his Administration which now encompasses him
in the North; he, by his want of honesty or lack
of ability has himself inspired and created the
opposition. Had he acted with wisdom and
prudence Mr.. Lincoln would have made friends
and supporters where he has made lasting enc
mics and opponents. But Mr.. Lincoln is
usually obstinate when in the wrong and weak
and wavering when in the right, the chances
are as five to one, at least, that he will hang
to the Baltimore nominations like grim death
to inanimate American citizen of African
descent

The Oregonian says we lack loyalty Yes,
that's it, we lack loyalty, brains and decency,
because we stand by the Constitution of the
United States because we do not choose to de-
base ourselves, and fall down and worship Abra-
ham Lincoln and his unconstitutional acts be-
cause we are opposed to despotisms and imbe-
cile rulers because we believe in maintaining
law and order and the Republic as it was found
ed, understood and administeredby the Fathers.
For these reasons, it must be apparent to every
one possessing an ordinary amount ofjudgment,
that we are, when judged by the Oregonian' S
standard, not only disloyal, but actually the
worst kind of "traitors." AS still further ev-
idence of disloyalty, we may add that we be-

by Mr.. II. P Isaacs, fine specimen of the To-

the leaves of the plant measured 81 feet in
length and ID inches in width. The luxuriance
of the growth is probably owing to the adapta-
ton of both soil and climate; the soil being
limestone and is refreshed during early summer
with copious showers and with heavy dews un-
til winter Tobacco raising, as far North as the
49th parallel, is remarkable, and we believe
is something new in the history and culture of
this plant

STILT THEY CONE "A stroll this week around
the different creeks and streams that environ
the City, has suficed to assure us that no mea-
gre proportion of the immigrants across the
plains this season have determined to make per-
manent homes in the Walla Walla valley. Since
the last issue of our paper, quite train of wa
gons have come in, bearing representatives from
the States of Illinois, Missouri, Iowa and Wis
consin, in the persons of men women and chill
dren. The oppressive results of the war, ad-
ded to the privilege of entering homesteads
here, where families feel themselves inde-
pendent and happy, have had the effect of in
ducing untold hundreds to leave the East for
our rich and virgin valleys. The immigrants,
so far as we have seen, seem to be an intelli-
gent, energetic class of persons. Nearly all
the professions and trades are pretty well rep
resented among the new comers-doctors, law
yers, farmers, painters, clerks and school teach
