No man, therefore, could the Democracy
nominate so satisfactorily to the unterrified
as the Chief of the Whisky Ring. But this Is
the least of Woolleys claims. He has stolen
the palm from all modest amateurs in the
Democratic fine art of legislative corruption.
Others have expended their ammunition on
lower game-a few hundreds to secure turn
pike, or bridge, or railway charter, or to get a
"paln out of "quOd." Not so Woolley His

inactively, when Johnson was about to be sac

The Austrian Government ascribes its defeat
in the "Seven Days War" of 1866 chiefly to
tbe superior military organization of Prussia.
If has, therefore, adopted nearly the whole of
the Prussian system. Whether with the Prus-

spirit and discipline remains to he seen.

an authoritative settlement through Mr.. Sum

denied in the resolutions, and a most thorough

During the war the flood of loyalty brought
the State squarcly over from its original Dem
ocratic ground; but after peace was proclaimed,
the Democrats TO some extent went back to
their first love. Yet the Republican vote shows
a steady and gratifying increase aside from
the war excitement In 1866 it was 5,Ol3 ahead
of the vote in 1860, while the Democrats
gained in the same time only SIG.
Our majority on Governor two years
ago was but 827-a very small margin
in rapidly growing State. The Dem
ocratic victory last year in California, and the
peculiar views OF the people of the Pacific
Coast upon currency. public debt, and especially
the Alaska purchase, doubtless worked
strongly against the Republican party. We
presume, Judging from these first dispatches,
that the Legislature is against us-a fact to be
regretted. slcc this Legislature is to elect a
Senator in place of Mr. Williams.
The Coppclhcads will raise a scream Of de-
light over this election, and put it down as
"thc first gun in response to the Chicago
nominations. The mere fact Of the nOmna-

known To onc-ffth of the voters of Oregon

1t has been demonstrated at the new
Belfont Furnace at Ironton, Ohio, that
bitumiuous coal will answer all the
purposes for smelling ore. The late
Captain George W. Norton, for many
years connected with the nail works
of this city, was the first to conceive
the idea of its practicability and to him
is due the successful establishment OF
the Belfont Furnace. After his death,
his brother, Z. NJ. Norton, for many
years connected with the Belmont and
Behwood Nail Works of this city, was
called on to succeed him aud through
hila the plans already matured were
successfully carried out. The construc-
ton of the work was under the superin-
tendence of F. d. Norton, and through
the continued efforts of these brothers
the practicability of bituminous coal
has proven to be equal to any other in
