editor has nothing else to do, than to, right

Mr.. Catlin for trying to do our duty. He
says 1--WE quibbled about the worth of this

thing, and had it been as easy for Mr.. Was

false statement he did, that lie would never
have been published to the world demon

Senator Williams.

The question has been asked by citizens
Who is Senator Williams? We propose to
give them little light upon the subject
George H. Williams came to Oregon under
the Territory, as District Judge, from Iowa
by appointment of the President, over ten
years ago. He presided with much ability,
and to great extent become popular, mixing
as he did, in politics, and delivering addresses
on fourth of July occasions. After his res
ignation as judge he was elected by the Mari.
on county democracy as a member Of the con-
vention to frame a constitution for the new
State of Oregon. During the sittings of this
convention it was notorious, he had no opin-
ion of his own calculated to lessen his chanc.
es for a seat in United States Senate. At or
about this time he wrote his celebrated free
soil letter through the columns of the Oregon
Statesman, newspaper which consigned
him to political obscurity, until the breaking

Continue to Lie.

AS men are reared, so they are apt tc
continue to live. If any particular char.
acteristic is specially cultivated, it is
most likely to be the prominent one
through life. A confirmation of this we
see in late number of the Oregonian
published at Portland Oregon, Edited
by one with whom we happen to be well
acquainted. Men of sense and honesty
always take the pains, and go to the
trouble to ascertain the truthfulness of
any charge against the character of per-
sons before engaging in publicly declar-
ing the same. We have some regard for
honor, for honesty and fair dealing, but
the Oregon ian man, true to his instincts
repeats the now exploded falshood con-
corning the i'll conduct of the late Idaho
Legislature. The Oregonian man knew
very well of the reliability Of the source
whence his information sprung, He
knew the author in Oregon, and was
well aware that everything he uttered
must in justice to community, be taken
with great allowance. Will he now, af.
ter advices from Washington have been
received, and the fraud and falsehood
have been exposed, continue to lie about
men who only desired to defend them
selves against an uDjustifable assault
II he pretends to act as a juror in the
case, fair and honest, let him hear two
sides before concluding upon his verdict.
Now we know that not hair of Howlett's
head was to be hurt, and yet his lying,
fraudulent exhibitions, satisfied all that
deception and fraud was being practiced.
Disgraceful, says the Oregonian; now
please say where the disgrace was, and to
whom it attached. 1t must have attach
ed to Hewlett, for he brought around a
band of soldiers to defend him, while he
before a caucus of unarmed cit
liens, who had no design whatever upon
his person, and he wilfully lies when he
says they did. OH most moral, chaste,
and erudite Oregonian, how about the
testimony from your own radical Enter
prise, concerning your own kind of
Legislature, which lately convened in
the State of Nevada. He says they
were corrupt, dishonest, drunken aud
base, and says their like will never meet
again, for they will all be, either hung,
or in the penitentiary, before another
session shall arrive. Pull out your own
beams before looking at our notes. You
have more than you can attend to at
nome. The funeral dirge will be un-
,hanted over the purifying carcasses of
your radical file,leaders, so numerous
will they be, and none so poor as to do
hem reverence.

Mexico.

So many various and conflicting rumors
have been circulated during the past few
months regarding the state ofthe' sick man"
as to render it wholly impossible for parties
at a distance to form correct diagnosis of
his true condition. The latest reports how
ever, which are supposed to be the most re.
liable, because a sufficient time has not eaps-
ed to bring us contradictory statements, have
it, that the Liberals are sweeping the country
like tornado, and Maximillian is snugly
quartered in the "last ditch" the precise To-
cality of which, the patriotic descendants of
Montezuma have failed to discover This
would certainly be very pleasing intelligence
to every honest advocate of the principles Of
a Republican government, if it was not for
the unpleasant recollections which cluster
around the pages Of the past history of the
Republic Of Mexico" They are replete
with tyranny, bloodshed and internecine
strife, and the existence of the Mexican re-
public has been nothing less than IA stigma
and disgrace to the democracy Of the world
assuming the name and character ola repub-
lie, Mexico has been ruled by its ephemera
train of soi-diSdnt Presidents in style which
should secure for them prominent places at
the right hand ola Nero or Caligua. But as
Mexico has been aptly, and we think very
appropriately, called "nation of bandits"
the action of its rulers may, perhaps, be class
ed in the category Of military necessities, )"
that they are an .intractable, revolutionary,
law-despisng people, their past record exhib-
its undeniabie proof. Mendacous and unre.
liable, devoid of spark of principle or true
patriotism, taking deeper interest in Bull
fights and cock pits than in the observance
Of law and order, the individual who at
tempts to sway the sceptre over Mexico,occu-
pies an eminently nnenviable position. Wheth
er a Hapsburg or to the'manor born, bis mis-
sion is not iovely, nor is his bed, one of roses
by any means. True to his instincts, in war
or peace, the Mexican is the same, cruel,

to the cry of mercy-and his heart steeed
against the petitions and prayers of the help
less and unfortunate. The cold blooded per-
fdous order of Gen. Marian Escobedo, direc-
ting that all the prisoners captured at the
San Jacinto Rancho, not born in Mexico, be |
put to death, IN obedience to which, one hun
dFed and twenty-three French prisoners were
barbarously murdered, finds no parallel in the
annals of warfare, except, perhaps, in the in
stance Of the fendish, infamous Mcneil at
Palmyra, No., in 1862. On the whole, al
though We are in favor of maintaining the
MonrOe doctrine to the letter, and have no
with Macmillan whatsoever, he
has offered the Mexicans better govern
ment than they ever had, and much better
one than they deserve.
