LETTER FROM SNAKE RIVER.

EDITOR WORLD:-Since | wrote you last Lave
spent most Of the time ON the Oregon side of the
river. aud have watched with interest and amuse-
ment gao use their own languagel the lodges and
tricks Of the negroequality and flnatical candi-
dates to secure positions for themselves, in the
late contest IN Oregon, and have also listened to
the powerful and eloquent appeals of Hayden and
Smith to undecelve the people aud mar the plans
OF the nggerists. To what purpose those appeals
have been made, you have seen by the retllrils as
far as heard from in the State, where fraud has
been the resort 10 defeat the Democracy.
PROMINENT CANDIDATES, &c.
The Opposition has always taken delight, when
"a Democrat aspired to office, in calling him po-
litieal- adventurer. The prominent men on the.
Black Ticket were Woods and Mallory They are
not political adventures / reckon not They
are standard models of craftsmanship and classic
love. hlapPearance Woods retninuS me forciblv
of an individual that saw in We ciiya W years
ago, presiding ovei the financial department of a
hurdy gurdy show He has not the dignity tai
ent, or any other quality, requisite to fill the chair
OF the chief Executive of the State. Mallory |
remember as an itinerant lecturer, several Years
ago, i'll California. His strong suit was Phrenolo-
gye Notice had been given in q mining tawn in
which resided at the time that Mallory would
explain that science Candle light arrived aud
SO did the audience, when the Professor arose and
seizng small image of Plaster OF, Paris, he ex.
Claimed Gents, (no ladies were presently this
bust that show you-this bust" but he got no
further; big miner stopped him by saying: ,.Yes
you have beeRlon a bust. Put that bust in your
pocket and letsus take a drink at your expense .
so they all adjourned the Professor inc Itied. to
take drink, and then went home SO it was new

Mallory continued. At later period, the Profess

Another bad trait in Woods is that his Weracitv
is at discount in Oregon. An ignorant or pars
doning Governor can be excused, but not living
one. These are the kind of men that are TO adj
vance the Interests of the State at home and in
" ashington-if voting when the polls should be
closed an returns from soldiers camps are ac-

speech, arguing that there was no power an the
south to represent sovereignty. We have a
right TO compel obedience TO the Government
and as Mr.. Lincoln said a few days before his
assassination, that those States Were out OF
their practical relations TO the Govern ment
They are still ont, and the task was with Con-
gress to bring them back. and TO so reconstruct
the Union as 70 secure union with power. The
Democrats fail TO see the hand writing on the
wall, and they would go down TO posterity as
the Tories Of the Revolution and the Federal
lists OF lsl2. If their counsels had prevailed
during the late contest, the nation would have
persisted.
Mr.. Delano, of Ohio, examined the condition
OF the States lately in rebellion. On its solu-
ton depended our present happiness and the
future existence of the nation. He believed the
States OF the South are still States, with the
right OF local and domestic legislation. Yet he
did not believe they Were SO united for union,
as TO demand the right of The admission of their
members. He combatted the heresy, As he
called il, that the Southern States are dead
