Or the many Congressional Incl

from the columns of the Horld, is not
the least entertaining, and it is GER
tainly very instructing. Not to lose
sight of the nobility of character dis
played by the Chairman of the Com

credit-the important fact is not in the
rebuke that he gave his party, but in
the occasion for it.

discreditable either to their courage

that County will look carefully for men

To give good advice is human-to
net upon it is something more. The
man who receives It may be unnind-
full, but he can never afford to be un-
grateful. When independent newspa-
pers take it upon themselves to look
after the welfare of both political par
ties, they encourage such debt of
gratitude as is seldom created by dis
interested devotion to other peoples
business. And our gratitude is only
intensified when We consider from
what patriotic considerations the good
offices of our independent journalist
proceed. It is the slight compensation
that he makes for his withdrawal from
the slough of politics to the exalted
plane of independent journalism.
With this suitable acknowledgment,
We invite attention to leading article

the fact that the editor, whose name

of receiving letters. Receiving let

The Senate Judiciary Committee find much
trouble IN settling the Georgia case, and have
yet arrived mt no conclusion. Considerable differ
encc Of opinion exists. but they are unanimous,
however, in disapproval Of Gen. Terry's course in
holding military enquiry into the eligibility Of
members Of the Legislature. The President and
Cabinet repeatedly sanctioned Gen. Tcrry's pro
ceedngs and they viii probably also be sanction
ed by Congress- Dispdtch.
How natural and how necessary -
The Senate judiciary Committee are
unanimous in disappearing Gen. Ter
rvs course in ejecting the legally cleo
ted members of the Georgia Legisla-
ture and in filing their seats with bo-
gus members, but the President and
Cabinet having repeatedly sanctioned
it, the proceedings will probably be
sanctioned by Congress. It is GER
tainly most confdence-inspiring CON
dition of the times when the indefensi-
BILE endorsements of Grant & Co. are
to be taken as the standard for Con-
gressional action.

An Ger true tale is published from
Yamhill county to the effect that q
certain individual has large force en-
ployed to cut steamboat wood that
he draws his pay for cutting this wood
from the P. I. Company, and that his
hands are instructed to call themselves
Republicans. The imported individ-
uals in this instance will probably vote
the Republican ticket, just to keep up
the delusion that the cunning rascals
are practicing upon the Radicals. This
is very andacious yarn. The, rogue
that joined in the stop thief" chorus
to escape suspicion, may as well come
down from his pedestal. His strategy
has been very much improved upon

AN INVASION OF sCALLAwAGs.

The importation business has been
lively along the line during the latter
part of the present week. Tho no
madic voters have been arriving in
squads of from two to six. They are
all members of fugleman Bailey's
wood-chopper's Brigade. What Adj
miral Simpson is doing at Yaquina,
we are not informed; we presume that
he is not less active than his Corvallis
coadjutpr. Some of Lieut.. Johnson's
recruits from Jefferson arrived here
last Wednesday; whether they have
yet reported in Benton county we are
not ormed. Tho squire is doing his
par He certainly will get another
Pos fiice. On Wednesday squad of
nj passed up the road on the Benton
q hty side, and in conyersation with a
ner stated that they were going to
vrk for Ben. Simpson. faa
This shameful attempt to override
the will of Benton county ought to be
resisted to the bitter end. There
seems to be no particular desire at
concealment. Even shame. the las
symptom of exphiag virtue
seems to have deserted these fellows
Their disreputable designs stand on
in naked and revolving ugliness. II
behold this carpet-bag invasion i
enough to stir foyer in tho blood o
every honest man in Oregon. Howey
er much violence is to be deprecated
yet if the people would organize Wig
lance committee and drive these seal
lawags from the county by force, the,
would meet the approval of publi
sentiment in the State and do them
selves simple justice.

Unsupported assertion anil stoiid denial are

fact which Il asserts stoutly .--Ors9osiaH.
The DEMOCRAT did make n statement
showing the basis of the facts which
it asserted in the very article from
which You quoted. For the benefit of
those interested, we repeat: the debt
total reported by telegraph for Sept.
1st was s., ,G26, ,653, ,0s7 The same.for
October, reported In tho same way,
was 2,G34 600, ,S56-an increase of
over 81 ,000, 900 in one month. The
telegraph statement for November we
arc unable to find. According to
Boutwcil's report, received by mail
the total debt, December 1st, was 81
64S, ,32I 6S2-oycr $13, COO, 900 more
than in October. We believe there was
no total reported for January, hut that
of February is put, by the same nj.
thority (the telegraph), at s., ,G52, ,ls7, ).
211-oyer 81, 600, 600 more than thai
of December.
There arc the Ggures. nnd there i.
the authority. The Secretary deduct.
from the total each month the amoun
of currency, coin and bonds purchas
ed and in the Treasury, and thus Jig
urcs reduction. This may all b
proper enough, and, so far as the bond
purchased are concerned, undoubtedl,
Is, but why does the total uniforml,
get larger? We will cheerfully receive
whatever information the Ore1oniaI
may have on the subject.

THE luck'eas Whittemore barely es-
eaped expulsion from the House of
Representatives for selling West Point
eEdetships, by getting time for a de
fense and then resigning. But Butler,
Of Tennessee, sits undisturbed in his
seat, though guilty of the same thing,
shielded by the fact, of which he is
the witness, that the money for which
he sold the cadetship was devoted to
procuring the election of Stokes.-
Nice justification If there is any
tiaiag wrong in this infamous business
hattaches to the selling and not to the
snses that are made Of the purchase
money. The practice of selling APP
pointments and khe using of the money
70 influence elections is doubly disrep-
utahle. The real explanation of the
matter, SO far as it relates to Butler,
is, that he is Jealous worker. He is
hens to have about when jobs are to be
done and the Radical camp can't spare
hin. He can go on with his traffic.
