we have every confidence, venerable and
dearly. beloved brethren, that, the, Council
which is this day brought to a close, will
exert q most beneficial influence in the
cause Of our holy religion. p at..y'JI7 y.
We have taken advantage Of the oppor-
tunity OF the assembling of so large num-
Der Of Bishops from every part Of our vast
country, to enact such DEGREES as Will tend
to promote uniformity Of discipline and
practice among us, and to do away with
such imperfect observance of the rites and
approved ceremonies of the Church, as may
have been made necessary by the circum-
tances Of Fast times, but which no length of
prescription can ever c0nse0rate, and TINS
10 give the services Of our religion that
beauty and dignity which belong 70 them,
and for which we should all be so jealous.
For the furtherance of these Important
objects. we have caused to be drawn up q
clear and compendious series of statements
upon the most essential points Of faith and
morals, with which we have embodied the
de0fees Of the seven rrovincial Councils Of
Baltimore, and of the First Plenary COun-
ell, together with the DEGREES enacted by us
in the present Council, which, when they
have been examined and approved of by
the Holy See, will form compendium of
ecclesiastical law for the guidance of our
clergy in'the exercise Of their holy minis
try. ,g'ana7 eiafe'oN irle q gia
The result Of our Iabors when thus re-
turned to us, viii be promulgated more
fully In our Provincial Councils and Di0-
cesin Synods and we will then take ad-
vantage OF the opportunity to bring more
fully under the notice Of the clergy, and
the people committed to our pastoral
charge. the details Of what we have done,
and the exact nature Of the means by which

porting his family. Nor do the govern
mental burdens which the law heaps upon
the toiling mechanic, stop even here, for
if ut the end of the year IL is found that
he has anything left, out of his twelve
months earnings, our benign tax man re-
lieves him of five dollars out of every hun
dred that remains. In the mean time our
loi dly millionaire has Jared sumptuously,
at his ease, added not cent to tho coun-
try's wealth and keeps safe and sound in
an iron chest his boarded thousands un-
touched by taxation, ready to buy at one
fifth of its value, the very homestead
which pinching poverty is perhaps driv-
ing that same laboring mechanic to place
in the market in order to buy bread with
which to feed his hungry babes.
We maintain that this whole system of
indirect taxation should be swept from
our statutes, aud every taxpayer be bur

erty and his consequent ability to pay
Such is our present system Of taxation,
and nobody denies its justice. If then it

appeal to the public--are we not right
when we say that the Company is crush
ing, grinding, soulless monopoly?
Some one may ask--what good do we
expect to accomplish by our opposition to
the Peoples Transportation Company p
We frankly admit that We are not sure
that we shall accomplish any good. The
Company is heartless, soulless monopo-
| ly; and they have matters, connected
with the navigation of the Willamette,
so arranged that it will be pretty hard to
compel them to mend their manners.-
We understand they claim to own the
land on both sides Of the Falls. IF this
be true they have decided advantage
over an opposition line of steamers, Yet
it is difficulty that can, and we believe
one day viii be overcome, a fair county
road runs round the Falls, and that thoy
cannot control, A Company with sufi-
ciept capital should be formed, not only
to build good boats above and below the
Falls, but to erect warehouses, and to do
Everything else that would be found nec-
essary to ensure successful opposition
If We can do nothing moro We can Ger.
tainly, by publishing facts, prepare the
people of the upper Willamette 10 sus-
tain an opposition line whenever one shall
be started. The next timo an opposition
line starts up, let every man, woman and
child patFonize 1t. OF course the p. T.
Company viii put down the prices still
lower than the opposition. They may
possibly offer to take passengers for moth
ing aud give meals besides. This they
could easily afford to do with the money
they have already wrung from tie public.
But let no one, who really desires 10 pro-
mote his own good and that of the CON-
munity in which he lives, patronize them
Ia any manner whatever It should be a
part of his religion to give the Peoples
Transportation Company's boats a wide
berth in such contingency; because, as
soon as they can break down the opposi-
tion line, they viii again adopt tho old
prices-pcrhaps even higher scals-to
make up for lost time. He who would,
under such circumstances, throw solitary
dime into the already plethoric purse of
the P. 7. Company, virtually cuts his own
throat.
The farmers and tradesmen Of Linn
county alone could build boats, aud ship
their own produce and merchandise, and
save money by the operation. They would
save more than money enough to pay for
the boats the first season. II they had
boats of their own they could realize al
least fifteen cents more per bushel fof
wheat than they now do, and all other
produce in proportion. We trust the
time is not far distant when q successful
and permanent line of opposition steam
ers will be running on the waters of the
Willamette. We again pledge ourself 10
do all we can to produce so desirable
result,

business Matters ExpIaIned.

We have received note from Il. L..
Brown, Esq, of Brownsville, Linn coun-
ty. Though ofa private business nature,
we extract the following from it for rea-
sons which will be apparent as We pro-
cesd
FRIEND ABBOTT II send to you by the bearer,
Mr. Lewis 81 paid to me by DR.. L. Hiekin, which
be says he owes for advertising. J.W. Bunch has
just spoken to me in regard 10 his subscription 70
the Democrat He says that he was in the Office
and paid the money to man With q seaF bis
face. He paid il the Saturday before Circuit
Court, and be gave him one paper; also the club
for this ofice lie wants you TO send the paper on
and he viii see you about it."
The "man with scar on his face" is
unquestiOnably John Traverse, who, until
a few weeks past, was member Of the
firm. The money paid to HIM, above al
l4ded to, was not entered by him upon the
books, consequently we did not know that
Mr, Bunch had paid his subscription IN
til SO informed by this letter from our
agent Nor are these the only cases of
this character. Every week since Tray-
eFse left Albany cases like these have been
developed, We allude to them now thus
publicly because we desire to do justice in
the matter to our patrons There may be
others who have paid the "man with a
scar on his face" whom he has not prop
erly credited; and if they should be
dunned they will now know what is the
trouble, and will not censure US for so do
ing.
While we have our hand in we may as
well say that this 'fman with scar on his
face" came to us under the wing and
quasi recommendation of Beriah Brown :;
and Of course we supposed he was all
right; he also possesses . fair and gentle
manly bearing; but he proved himself to
be an unmitigated scoundrel. On ascer-
tanning his true character we told him
there must be dissolution; and he final
ly made, and We accepted a proposition for
him to withdraw from the concern. We
raised the money and paid him of-he
assigning to Abbott 4 Brown all his title
and interest in all debts due the establish
ment. Scarcely had he left, however, ere
we discovered that, ip several instances,
he had received money from various iadi-
yiduals, for which no account had been
rendered-thus defrauding US out of what
was our just due, and placing US in false
attitude to some of our patrons. We
overhauled the gentleman in Portland
and made him disgorge some of the money
he had thus Wrongfully abstracted. He
is undoubtedly great villain and scoun-
drel. we can prove that he confessed
that he is q deserter from the federal
army. We did not approve of the manner
in which, in several instances, the war
Twas conducted; but we nevertheless pub

We call attention to that part of Mr..
Spaulding's lectures, in to-day's Demo
Ofat, relative to the seizing of the Lap
wal Mission by the Government. IF his
statement is entitled to credence he has
been most foully wronged by the federal
Government. Under the circumstances,
rs set forth by him, his title to the land
should have been regarded as among the
best on the habitable globe. He 6rst re-
ceivsd title to it from the Neg Perees
Indians sn 1884, who then owned it; and
next by an act of Congress of 1s4S, con-
firming his title to GAO acres of land
Yet, Notwithstanding al this, the Gov
eminent has seized aud occupied his land,
and have denied him the privilege of
building anywhere on the old mission
claim of GAO acres, or indesd, anywhere
on the Reservation" We are happy to
say that this act of gross injustice to an
old pioneer and missionary, was not per-
petrated by Democratic administration,
but under that of the "martyred and
sainted Lincoln" Mr.. S. was Lincoln
man, and we believe he would not mis-
represent this affair, Lincoln, claimed
by his followers to be an "honest" and
very godlT man-whose pictures in the
shops represent him with spectacles on
nose piOusly aud devoutly reading his
Bible-the dear, blessed little Tadd at his
knees, and his afectionate wife at his
back-this sanity man permitted his un-
derlings, in the face of the most urgent
and pointed remonstrances, to drive off an
old pioneer and missionary from land he
had occupied for more than thirty years,
and whose title to it, under any admins
tration less corrupt, would have been re-
spected and deemed absolutely indisputa-
bls- It was such damaging facts as the
above which caused the Oregonian to re-
fuse to publish Spaulding's Lectures.

licly took the ground that if a man vOlun-
tarily joined the federal army, and ro-
ceived the bounty, &C., he was in duty
and honor bound to stay the stipulated
time, and that if he deserted he ought to
pay the penalty. We can also prove that
he took out some of our private letters,
opened them, read them and burned them.
lie also received several letters directed
to the firm, but never mentioned the tact
to US, and destroyed them-thus causing
confusion in our business matters in sew
eral INSTANCES We can provo, too, that
he attempted to open, with false keys, q
private drawer of ours, in our absence
ust as any burglar and villain would
We can provo, also, that he proposed to
certain Republican gentlemen of Albany
that, If they would let him use the old
"Journal office" materials, he would fur
fish all the means necessary to carry it
on with, and publish genuine "Union"
paper. lie solemnly assoverated that he
was true "Union" man, and that if he
could only have an opportunity he would
slight Abbott" and thus prove it; that
he was no Democrat, and never had been,
and the only reason why he had been
connected with the State Rights Demo
ocrat was because he wanted TO make u
living. We have also a letter in our pos
session, written by gentleman of San
Francisco to Mr., Cherry of this place, in
quiring if he Cherry knew man in
Albany by the name of John Traverse, Il
printer; and whether he was living with
woman. This man further writes that
his wife had left him whittier she had
fed he knew not, but he had good reason
to infer she was in Albany, living with

We presume it is unnecessary for us to
add that this "man with u scar on his
face" was also smooth-tongued hypocrite
and liar. lie who could defraud us aud
pocket money not his own-who boasted
to few friends that he is descr;er from
the federal army-who attempted to get
into a private desk of ours by force and
false keys-who took out, opened, read
and destroyed some Of our private letters
who could forswear his principles sim,

he on whom strong suspicious rest that

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec 51.--The East
ern lines are both down beyond Salt
Lake; no Eastern news.
The steamer America left this morning
for San Juan del Sur. Among the pass
engers is Mark Twain, the bumorist.
Private dispatches from Acapulco state
that Gen. Castangney had arrived ut San
Bias from Guadala ara, to march overland
to the City Of Mexico with the troops re-
Gently driven out Of Sonora and Sinoloa
by the Liberals. lie found, however
that the contemplated movement was i'm
possible, from the fact that Losada, the
Mexican Imperialist Commander at Tepec
who had been unwavcring in his devotion
to the Empire since his defeat last sum-
mer by Corona, aud the failure Of the
French to furnish relief or money to pay
his men, had at last gone over with his
whole force to the Liberals, and uniting
his troops with those sent out by Corona
from Mazatian, was waiting in the noun
talns to attack the French column in over
,aelming numbers. The forces of Mar.
tilez, ITO strong just returned from the
campaign in Sonora, also joined this force,
and il was the intention that the march
overland would necessarily be abandoned
by Castangney, who would be compelled
to advance his forces from the Pacific
Coast instead offrom Vera Cruz.

MARKETS, &c.-We clip the following
from McCraken, Merrill & Co.'s Market
Report of December 8:
Trade during the first week of Decem-
Der has been more than usually quiet,
partly owing to the rain, but attributable
to the few arrivals seaward, Not that
there is any scarcity Of merchandise il
the market far from it-but for the want
of ships to carry our large surplus crops
now pressing to the seaboard. 1t is for
the lack Of this needed tonnage that all
interests at present suffer and languish /;
nor do VIC look for any material revival in
business until after the Holiday season.
We remark the arrival Of the new steam
ship Oregonian, 60 days from New York
the shortest passage on record; Capt.
Braiard in his memoranda says the run
ming time was but 64 days, having anch-
orcd four days. The entire passage was
very pleasant, with fine weather most OF
the time. This steamer comes consigned
to J. w Ladd. She was built with an
eye to the Oregon trade; but as the oppo-
sition North is 80 very brisk, and freight
and passage low, it is not improbable that
she will be sold Her cost docs not fall
much short Of 100000
The brig Alert Yokohama, brought over
845 cases Of Japan Silk Worms, for re-
shipment to France These will go for
ward by the outgoing steamer Montana,

Arrangements have been made with the
different lines Of Oregon steamers to carry
the T. s. Mails This will be great ac-
commodation during the winter season.
Heretofore 7 or more days have been con-
sumed in carrying the same to and from
Portland; now 10 hours will, onthe aver
age, be all that is REQUIRED. Letters to be
