BRANCH MINT QUESTION.

A late issue of the Portland Oregonidn con-
tains long letter from Judge Mcbride in RET.
erence to the location of the Branch Mint at
Dalles City, during his term in Congress as the
Representative from Oregon. The letter was
drawn from our Chief Justice by an unpro-
voked and Indirect impeachment of his action
on the part of his successor in Congress, the
Rev. J. III. d. Henderson Of Oregon. After
fully proving misrepresentation and needless
falsehood upon Henderson, Judge Mcbride ex-
plains how the Branch Mint came to be located
at Dalles City, as follows:
Wallace had bill for mint in Idaho.
Washington Territory was producing as much
gold as Oregon, and if the gold-producing re-
gion was to be accommodated, they had as
much right to be heard as Oregon. The truth
was that leading Congressman were opposed to
any mint at all, but were inclined to give it to
Idaho if any was to be established. The Ore
gon delegation consulted with the Represents
tives from Washington and Idaho--Cole and
Wallace-and they agreed that if we would
consent to put the location at the Dalles they
would support it. Gov. Wallace especially,
whose cooperation was indispensable TO sue
cess, wanted it still further east, but finally
consented to the Dalles location, and withdrew
or at least ceased to push-his own bill for
Idaho. The Oregon delegation felt then, and
think yet that securing it in the State was a
triumph for Oregon, aud if those who succeed
ed the members of the 38th Congress had been
as anxious to serve the people of the State as
they were to pander to local interest and feel
ing, the Mint Bill, instead of being dead let
ter on the statute book, would be now reality
and blessing.
against the protest of the delegate from idaho,
it wouh have resulted in the defeat of the bill
entirely. went for it at the Dalles to secure
the Mint; to 60 for it at Portland was probable
if not certain defeat. Having nopersonal end
to serve in either location, looked to one OBJ
ject-the establishment of the Mint.

An IMPORTANT DECIsIoN.-The st. Louis
Republican of Oct. 9th gives the following:
An ex-Confederate soldier named Foster
Whiteside, was, last summer, sentenced to
eighteen years Imprisonment by the Circuit
Court in East Tennessee, his offence being that
of acting under orders He burned house
during the war. An appeal was taken to the

Outside of the Republican party, the cleo

pleasure. and the Boards have been crowded

the Negro Suffrage Amendment is lost by 40,-
600 votes The poor dupes of Radical knavery
will begin to discover that their loyal friends
