WHAT SHOULD THEY DO.

We learn from the Portland paper:
that Capt Wright, of San Francisco
proposes to have in readiness within
three weeks q first class steamer
which is intended as an opposition
vessel to run between Portland and
that port. The Steamer Annie .Ste,..
art, now being oyerbauled, will be in
running condition in about five weeks
and Will ply on the upper and lower
Willamette, and connect with the op,
position steamship. Other boats are
also expected shortly to be placed up-
on the Willamette and its tributaries
to connect with the opposition steam
ers between Portland and San Fran
cisco. If these expectations should
be realized the people of the William
cite Valley may look hopefully into
the near future for solution of the
present difficulties under which they
are laboring because of the exho horbi-
tant freight and fares charged by the
present railroad monopoly of our State.
In this hopeful view of the case
what will be the duty of the shippers
throughout our Valley? The answer
to- US seems plain indeed. They
should let no opportunity pass to en-.
courage, aid and stimulate this oppo-
sltion. They should foster it by every
means within their power and by
every particle of patronage at their
command. They should furnish it all
TIER freights, at living rates, and con-
tinne to do SO. even though the rail.
road managers may for time propose
to transport their freights over their
fonte free; because experience and
observation teaches as that all sucb
snbterfnges, if successful. are only
source of damage to the public in the
end. AS soon as the opposition is by
fhs base rating means crushed out
and compelled to draw off. the mo.
noply becomes more arrogant. soul.
less and exacting than ever and the
people are more hopeiessly a. its mer-
cy than even before an attea,pt was
made to relieve them.
The farmers and shippers through.
out our Valley should form protective
societies and pledge themselves and
their means TO the encouragement and
patronage of q wholesome opposition
to Holidays monopoly, and thus
make iia feel the weight of their
great wrongs and their just indigna-
lion at his disastrous, tyrannical and
oppressive freight and tariff rates.
Let them fail TO do these things
and who can pity them if their op-
preston continues and their uronys
50 unredressed.

Andrew Rountres was killed in
Goose Lake Valley. on the I'd day of
October, by M. L. Smith, who ac-
knowledged to several witnesses that
he killed him by striking him with a
hoe, and justified himself in the act
on the ground that Rountree had as
saulted him with pistol while he
was in the field digging potatoes
with the hoe. The difficulty grew
out of q reported improper intimacy
between Smith and Rountree's wife.
The deceased went to the field and
accused Smith of it, which he denied,
and fight ensued with the result as
stated. Smith was acquitted on the
ground of iustifable homicide.

BEATEN,

The result of Tuesdays contest ma
be summed up in the suggestive wor
which heads this article. Horac
Greeley has now succeeded in attain
ing the height of his ambition III
has raised the biggest beat on record
one which will perhaps have nj
equal in the agriculturo-political worl,
for centuries to come.
And now, to undertake to advanc,
reasons for this great catastrophe, o
to attempt to cast censure on any clas
ofpersons outside of the Radical part,
because of it, would be the vaines
folly. We might give reasons for j,
all which to us appear potent enough
but they would not alter the materia
fact nor change the Ito our mind) de
plorable result. It is sufficient fol
present purposes to know that the
devil is in the people and not even
Horace Greeley and the united hosts
of the Democratic-Liberal party could
succeed in exercising it.
We suppose now somebody will be
ldiotic enough TO assert that if Gree.
ley hadn't been nominated, and if Bal.
timore had taken up Bedrocker, and
y the Democrats had stuck by their
records, and II Gratz Brown hadn't
got drunk in New England. and il
the fight had been made on dead
issues" and If Grants last bull-pup
had been of the feminine gender. and
If the Chappaquack farm had been
moved out West, and If the obscene
Woodruff had been imprisoned soon-
er, and ;T Adam had booted the med.
ding serpent out of Eden a few mo-
ments before fig leaves became fash
ionable-why, then the result might
have been different But such IFS
are all stuff and nonsense. Grant was
bound to be reelected, and his oppo-
nents, whether they came against him
IN the form of Straightouts or Liber-
ais, were sure to. meet Overwhelming
defeat. He had the public moneys, he
had the election machinery, he had
the plnndering officials and he had the
large mass of prejudiced and ignorant
voters with him; and any talk about
Principle or Bedrockery winning
against these fearful odds is simply
bosh.
We are beaten by an upprincipled
Administration and gulled. sniped
and prejudice-blinded people; and
thus our Republic is gradually flow
ing into centralized dcsrotlsm and our
people into voluntary sertdom.
But we are only disguised, not dis
couraged. While there is SO large a !
class of the American people in favor
OF Freedom and Justice, as is shown by !
the Liberal Democratic vote of Tues
day, there is no reason to be hopeless
Or even despondent. The germ that
IS sown in this Reform movement
must eventually spring into a flourish
nS plant which viii yet effect the res
;ue and salvation of our COUNTRY
Let no patriot despair.

THE CURRENCY.

The Report of the Comptroller of the Cur
rency is an elaborate document. The topic
of most interest referred to is that of a pro-
posed increase of the national bank notes.
The Comptroller recommends the repeal of
the act Of Congress which calls for the redis-
bank currency, by Withdrawing that amount
from the Middle and Eastern States and Civ
ing it to the South and West, and in lieu
thereof to issue five millions year addition
al circulation for the next five years, to meet
the wants of those States which have not
had their full proportion. 1t is commonly
received but somewhat erroneous opinion
that the amount of currency in the hands of
each individual member Of the community
has been on the average largely increased by
the National Bank system; but this report
only gives it now as, for the whole United
States, So, is per capita, against $3.50 before
National Banks existed but the circulation
of United States Treasury notes should be
added before any conclusion is reached from
these figures. The State of Rhode Island
has the largest per capita circulation SCI SO ;
Missippi the least one cent-except Florida
and California, which have none. New York
has but Sl4 ,05. The National banks have
paid in the last eight years some $40, 1000, 900
taxes to the United States; their State and
national taxes for four specified years togeth-
er amount to 81, 100000. The bank divi-
dends are not so large on the average as is
generally supposed; they do not exceed in
the aggregate those of the old State banks !;
for the whole Union they but slightly exceed
five per cent on invested capital.
The great question OF the proper reserve to
be held by the National Banks is discussed in
this report, and the conclusion reached that
it is only the smaller and weaker banks that
want TO go below the present limit. Their
necessities arise from putting out their funds
at interest on deposit with Eastern banks--a
condition which has more than once given
rise to the most serious financial commissions,
as in l8J1-and remedy proposed by the
Controller is the issue of a new security by
Government which will afford these banks
the needfu investment at interest. Not the
least interesting feature of this report is the
| announcement that the Chicago banks, so far
from being crippled as was anticipated after
me hre by losses on discounted paper and the
withdrawal Of their balances, in point of fact
steadily increased in business aud profit, az
ter resuming without embarrassment as soon
as their safes were cool. There is a similar
prospect in Boston, where the aggregate loss
ess since the fire on bills receivable are esti-
mated at less than three millions of dollars,
which the bank surpluses will cover without
touching capital or reserve
The question of usury is discussed. 1t APP.
