WAR NEWS
Information from the Army of the Potomac,
saws that cannonading was going on oil day on
Saturday, in front Of the 9th corps.
The army correspondent OF the n Y. Times
states that the damage done to the D. K. Canal,
r. R., mills, factories, farms, houses, &C., by
Gen. Sheridan sis almost incalculable.
The steamer James s. Green arrived Sat-
urday night at Fortress Monroe from VIII
mington. That Sherman has crossed Cape
Fear river and is marching on Goldsborough
Is known, and nothing more,
A dispatch from Fortress Monroe says ian
arrival from the White House at late hour
last evening reports the arrival of General
Sheridan cavalry force on the north bank OF
the Pamunkey, few miles from White
House, at noon on Saturday. The bridge
across the river, which had been partially des-
troyed has been repaired by portion OF Gen.
Roberts command, which was sent to the
White House some days since in anticipation
Of the appe arance of General Sheridan at that
point, so that his force will have no difficulty
in crossing the river, which it was supposed
would be effected by twelve 0 clock on Saturday
nlght.
The whole of Kentucky, west Of Green river
to the Tennessee line, and the northern part OF
Georgia, are filled with rowing bands of gueril-
lis and deserters.
Advices from Newbern, N. c., up TO last
thursday represent the Union forces after
having occupied Kinston to have commenced
epairing. the bridge over the Neuse river,
which it was expected would be finished in
few days No fighting had occurred since the
Friday previous. The losses in the recent
battles near Kinston, in killed, wounded and
prisoners, on the part Of the Union army, is
estimated at 2, 900, whilst that Of the Confede-
rates is put down as larger: Refugees state that
Gen. Lee is in North Carolina, and had brought

The Confederate Congress has taken action
upon the measures recommended to their notice
by Mr.. Davis Some Of the changes suggested
appear to have been approved, but others
were rejected. The House Of Representatives
passed, by thirty six to thirty two votes, the
bill su:spending the privileges Of the habeas
corpus writ. It also passed bill empowering
the Secretary Of the Treasury to receive from
citizens contributions of money, jewelry, plate,
&C., &C., for the benefit OF their finances; anu
bill to revise the exemption law.

public Acting upon information received
from General Ord, General Lee, who was

ieloniously distracted from the public
treasury by persons in the employ of the
Goyefn hlent, aud Cabinet officers, Sena-
tors and Representatives, and other high
o%ficissd have shared the plumber with the
rogues who stole or swindled the treasury
out of the money. Nearly every right
aud privilege of the citizens have been
ruthlcssly torn from them, and their per.
sons and property placed subject to the
will or caprice Of the usurping rulers. In
short, there Is nc measure of wrong, Of
fraud, of villainy, Of corruption, or Of in.
fanny which has not been practiced by the
party in power, and all these outrages are
generally approved by the rank and file Of
that purity. A restoration of the Govern
ment into Democratic hands is the only
thing which can successfully put a stop to
these enormous excuses, and relieve the
country and the people FROM the oppres-
|sions under which they labor. And De-
mocracy viii yet survive 10 accomplish

SOUND REsoLUTIoNs.-The special
election is over, but we give the resolu-
tons passed by the Democrats of Wasco
and Grant counties at the late Convcn-
ton TO nominate a candidate for Repre-
sentative to fill the vacancy. Readers
will find a copied report of the proceed
ings on the fourth page of this paper.
The resolutions have the right ring, and
are ably, tersely drawn. They strike
directly at the odious laws now in opera
ton, passed by the Abolition Legislature,
and very plainly express the sentiments
of the Democracy with reference to GER
tain proposed Legislation by the Aboli=
%tionists in the approaching special session.
They are certainly model resolutions for
this particular juncture, and the election
of Col. Gates as the Representatives,
reported-well proves that the citizens Of
that section heartily approved them. We
rejoice at his election, for he will bring
to the House that integrity, ability and
experience which he so amply possesses,
and which is SO lacking among the ma.
Ijority members.

The Constitutions Amendment

A statement in the New York Herald
shows that twcnty-four States had so far
voted in favor of the constitutional
Amendment abolishing slavery, and three
States against it. Delaware, Now Jersey
and Kentucky, are the opposing States,
Among Che twentyfopr affirmative States
West Virginia and East Virginia
are reekoned. As the vote in the latter
was recorded Feb. 8, 1865-some months
before peace was declared-it must be n
new State not heard of before. Ii would
be worth while to know when and by
what authority it became u State, and,
also, how many States of Virginia there
are. We find further the States of Lou
%isiana, Arkansas and Tennessee recorded
in the list Of affirmative States, the vote
in each having been recorded before the
war terminated. If they are to be recog-
niEad as Suites ip the Union for a vote on
the Amendment, it must surely follow
that they ought to be recognized as
States in every way. II they were States
in the Union last February and prior to
the 18th of April, they must be States in
the Uuion nov, and entitled to Senators
and Representatives in Congress, the
same a. other States. 1t is certainly pn.
just to count them m upon the Amend
ment question, and to count them on
upon every other. But would their vote.
have been counted if given against the
Amendment We reckon not. Ac
cording to the vote so far, it seems tina.
three moresStates must vote in favor o
the Amendment to secure its adoption
Doubtless Oregon and California will ado
their two votes, and the new State 0
Colorado will be ADMITTED if only to max,
the lacking twenty-scyenth yote-count
ing in the two Yirginias-notwithstand
ting the fact that there is but one State o
Virginia, and she has not yet voted at al
on the question.

STRIKING HoME.-~At a Democratic
meeting lately held in Oregon City, after
the delivery of an able speech by Sept.
Huelat, Esq, Mr.. VIM. 7. Matloek, a
noted Abolitionist of that county, and who
held the Office of Register or Receiver in
the Land Office at that place during Mr..
Lineoln's reign, asked leave to say a few
words. As Democrats are always willing
to hear both sides and show due courtesy
to opposition speakers, the request was
readily complied with. Much to the as
constituent of all Mr.. Matlock commenced
IA most effective criticism upon the con-
duct and personnel of his own party in
Oregon, and showed up the shortcomings
and oyil doinss of its representative men
in a forcible manner. Among other
things he expressed mingled feelings of
yexation aud regret at the action Of the
late Abolition Convention in Claekamas
which nominated Mr.. Warner as candi-
date for Representative. lie said it was
time that the Abolition party in Oregon
should nominate men for Representatives
who had some talent. In the last Legis-
~lature, said Mr.. Matlock, there was not a
man on the Abolition side who could hold
his hand with Hon. Jas. ID. Fay, the able
and fearless Democratic member from
Jackson county, in argumentxthat when
Mr.. Fay spoke the only thing the Aboli.
ton members could do was to look wise
as they could, and hold theie tongues, for
mere lack of ability to cope with him in
discussion, Mr., Matlock told simply the
truth, Fay has moro brains and more
true logic than all the Abolitionists in
both Houses. aud We predict that in the
approaching special session he will make
it hot work for any or all of them to an
swer him, lie isa champion of Dcmoc

gon are Justly proud,

Stick A PIN THERE.-Senator John
sherman of Ohio is one of the big guns
of the Abolition party, He was their es.
pecial champion in the House before he
was chosen to the Senate, In a speech
during the recent campaign in Ohio, he
said that Lincoln had no legal power tc
suspend the writ of habeas corpus, Dem
