THE CURRENcY-We arc opposed
to the policy of having two curren-
cies, one for the masses and another
for the b~ondholders.
We demand that there shall be equal
taxation upon all persons witho ut any
distinction.
We demand that there shall be one
currency for all,
We hold that the currency which
was a legal tender to the soldiers in
the war, and is a legal tender to-day
for all the private debts of every citi-
zen, is good enough, and shall be a
legal tender for the holders of United
States bonds that were purchased
with the legal tenders when they were
in the most deprecated state.

IL. j. c. Averill, Hugh Fields, aud 4.

Hon. George X. Helm (thc pride of
old Linn having been invited to address
the Club. aud being present. took the
stand aud not only maintained his well
known reputation but actually surpassed
himself. For two hours aud a half he
held a very large and apprcciatiye audi.
ence IN crowded seats by bis cloquence,
stern faets, invincible logic aud %inevita-
bic conclusions. He dealt with the vital
facts aud prominent issues Of the day,
and left personal vituperation, low-fung
phrases, aud horse stealing, to smallfr r.
speakers who dare not venture into deep
water; hence an intelligent people appre-
eiated,. aud ever will appreciate such
speaking.
In the evening Messrs. Douthit and
Helm addressed a very large audience
with entire satisfaction in North Browns

Of m enthusiastic a~ssemblage of freemen.

ABUSING GEN. GRANT.

Under this head we find the follow
ing in a late Marysville Call Appeal:
Tho copperheads have already opened their
batteries of abuse upon Gen. Grant, aud the Times
Of this city says the ST. Louis Democrat rails at
him in true blood-and thunder style. rs savagely
as it assails General Sheridan OF Governor Fletch-
er. His reticence il declares to be nothing more
than 'low cunning !" his infamous deception
Of the President, il says, franks him among the
most unserupulOus adventures Of the day.
This is nonsense; but il sufiees 10 show what the
rebels now think of Grant.
The APpe0t evidently thinks the
st. Louis Democrat is a Democratic
journal. But this is a great mistake.
The St. Louis Democrat is as rabid
and vile a Radical sheet as can be
found anywhere. During the war
it vas the leading abolition paper in
Missouri and the northwest. None
was more INSCRIPTIONS, vindictivc,
proscriptive, %intolerant and villainous
than this same vile abolition organ.
We have not much doubt that the
blood Of thousands shed in Missouri
and adjacent States will be traced di-
rectly to it in the great day of ac-
counts. Hence it is the sheerest non
n to class it among the "copper"
head" papers, or to quote what it says
against Grant, and Sheridan, and
Fletcher as showing what the "rebels
now think of Grant" The truth is
the AHpe0k has jumped at its conclu-
sions because of the name of the st.
Louis Democrat. The name has mis-
led it, and made the editor conclude
that it is really a Democratic journal
The st. Louis Democrat is not the
only leading Mongrel journal that
comes down on Grant. Greeley, the
father and leader of the Radical party,
has lately repudiated Grant, and says
that neither Grants military fame nor
his civic deeds excite in his breast en-
thusiasm. We suppose the Tribune
will go for Grant if nominated: but it
will be the support of one whose heart
is not in the work-of one who is the
slave of circumstances.
We sincerely hope that Grant will
be nominated by the Radical party.
He can be beaten as easily as any one
whom they can bring forward. Once
in a while the people prefer military
leader; but they want none such now
unless he also possess all the talents
of an accomplished statesman besides.
Grant is 10 statesman and never will
be, He rarely says anything on po-
litical subjects, and every time, this
far, he has given his views to the pub
lie thereon, he has only exhibited his
ignorance and utter restitution of all
those qualities that enter into the COM
position of great statesmen. w reit-
crate we trust the Radicals will nomi-
nate him ; and then that the Democ-
racy will place before the country Mr..
Pendleton of Ohio or some other man
possessing his statesmanlike ability
and renown. We believe he would
beat Grant almost as effectually as
Pierce beat Scott when he ran for the
Presidency.

YANKEE CoNcILIATIoN.-The North
ern press and politicians are continually
bleatIng about the "conciliatory spirit"
they have ever manifested toward their
" erring brethren of the unreconstructed
States" The Montgomery Mail cites a
few illustrations of their tenderness. 1t
says: They faunt the national flag in
u faces, and say, " Damn you, love it !"
They play Yankee Doodle in our theatres,
and say, " Damn you, applaud it ]" They
are asked to assist in mending the Levce,
to save a drowning people, and say,
+" Damn you, drown" They are told by
appointees Of Office that they prefer not
to take such an uncertain responsibility,
and they say, Damn you, take it, or we
will give it to some negroF" They read
the Declaration of independence to us,
and say, " Damn you, what do your JEFF,
fersonians think of our Interpretation 2"
They ask our people to support the Con-
stitution and the Union hereunder, and
say, " Damn you, how do you like our
amendments ?"

REPUTATION.

The Radical editors and orators
sometimes charge the Democratic
party with being in favor of Repudi.
alton. We defy any of them to prove
this foul charge. There may be oc-
casionally one found who advocates
reputation of the national debt; but
the Democratic party is not response
BILE for his utterances. 1t has never
yet, by word or decd, favored repudi-
alton. All the resolutions of the par
ty declare that the debt must be paid;
and many of them declare that the
bondholder ought to be compelled TO
receive for his bonds the same kind of
money the soldier receives for his pen
sion, or the producer for his produce,
viz gFeeEabdckS.
The truth is, the actual regulators
are the Radical party. That party
passed a law declaring greenbacks a
illegal tender" for all debts ; and any
man who held a note, payable in gold
the kind of money which he loaned
was forced to take payment in
greenbacks. y Republican judge in
Pennsylvania was the first to declare
that a contract made in gold could be
paid in these legal tenders, and Re
publicans denounced any Democrat
who objected to this decision. A New
York Republican Legislature passed a
law to pay the interest of the State
debt in greenbacks, when the terms
required it should be paid in gold.
This cry of reputation comes with
a very bad grace from these radical
orators and editors, who first set the
example of reputation and they
know they lie from the crowns of their
heads to the soles of their feet, when
they charge reputation upon the De-
mocracy as a party. As we have al
ready said, they advocate the pay
ment of every dollar of the nation
al debt; and they demand that it
shall be paid as soon as possible, that
the heavy burden of taxation, which
is grinding the people down to the
dust, may be removed from their
shoulders. Stop this heavy gold-bear-
ing interest of $3.50, OOO,O 900 annually,
by paying the principal of the bonds
in greenbacks.
The Radicals say that greenbacks
are good enough for the soldiers, are
good enough for the people, and wild
Ows and orphans of soldiers; and we
say they are good enough for the fat
bond-holder who got his bonds in the
first place with greenbacks at thirty
and forty cents on the dollar.

HOME AGAIN.-0ur distinguished
fellow-citizen, Hon. J. s. Smith, who has
been travelling ia Europe and in the
Eastern States for the past year, with his
family, arrived or tho Ajax n is stop
ping at the American Exchange" in
this city. Mr.. Smith expresses himself
highly delighted with his trip and
equally delighted at finding himself
once more in Oregon, to which he is at
tached by a residence of nearly twenty
years, and by the confidence and esteem
of a large portion of the best class of his
fellow-citizens. He represents, as the
result of several months observation in
the Eastern States, the prospects of the
success of the Democracy in the approach
ing Presidential election as so fiattering as
almost to preclude the possibility of fail
ure. Mr.. Smith has not yet determined
whether to make his future residence in
this city or in Salem. If he settles in
Portland he will resume the practice of
his profession Herald.

The winter has been severe on travel
ers in Eastern Oregon. A man named
Moore was frozen to death while crossing
to Mormon Basin from Clark's Greek,
and a Mr.. Koontz, owner of a tsaw-mill on
Powder river, while crossing the divide
between that stream and Burnt river, got
into a snow drift, where he lay in a help
less condition three days and two nights ;
a party went out to search for him, and
When found his feet were so badly frozen
that amputation became necessary. He
is temporarily insane from the effects of
his exposure, and it is thought probable
that he will not recover.-Mouataaneer.

THE ALBANY CLUB.-There was a
good attendance at the meeting of the
Albany Democratic Club last Monday
evening. The Court House was e
" full-a good portion being ladies,
and the best of order and decorum
were observed. A letter was read
from Hon. John Burnett, of Benton
county, in which he stated he would
address the Club at some future day
not far distant, in accordance with an
invitation to that effect. Hon. George
Helm, being loudly called for, then
addressed the meeting till it was time
to adjourn. His speech was listened
to with marked attention. He dis
cussed several points; but the main
one was this That the Radical party,
IN all their measures of "Reconstruc-
ton" though professedly attempting
to "restore the Union,' aimed only to
secure the perpetuationof Radical pow
eE Mr.. IL. made this point so plain
that the wayfaring man, v though a
Radical bigot, could not err therein.
As this is an important subject we
shall publish, in our next issue, a
speech,-of rather a portion of a
speecb-delivered at the Cooper Insti-
tute by Ex-Governor Joel Parker, of
New jersey. He shows in a master
~ manner the methods adopted by
the Mongrel party to force negro suf-
fage on the South and retain Radical
power.
Club meets every Monday evening
in the Court House, at 81 O'Clock.
