DEMOCRATIC DEPARTURES,

Whether intending itas sarcasm OF
merely a bit OF pleasantly, the New
York G10Ehic hits the exact truth of
the political situation so far as the
Democratic party is concerned, when
it says that instead of any more ode
partnres" it needs few more returns.
That is precisely what the Democracy

but the people are thoroughly cured
Of all such mooushine, and demand to

Democratic principles, under whose

healthy growth, such substantial pros

OREGON RADICALISM. - On
the 18th ipstant, of too much Hip
ping, the Radical party ct Oregon.
Its "early indiscretions' and " youth.
fulperturbations'' were too much for
its debilitated and diseased cunstitu.
ton, and it consequently passed in its
checks, on last Monday, with scarce a
farewell gasp or struggle. The sad.
dest feature Of its last earthly mo-
ments was the fact that its carcass had
already become SO loathsome from its
fostering sores that its few friends
were forced to flee from its presence
ere life became extinct, and its funeral
was almost wholly unattended for like
reasons. Of the few who were seen
in its funeral train We observed as
chief mourner poor Hiram Smith,
whose Opthalmic Salve, SO literally
applied, had proven only a deadly poi
son instead Of a specific for its con
suming disease. At Hiram's side
walked q fussy, smiling old woman,
whoccoDtinually applied TO his nostrils
her Hharts-horn1 bottle and wiped his
grief c6lored nose with her cotton
bandana, She was evidently more
Indignant than sorrowful at the man
lier in which the fostering carcass had
been Duniway with, Awhne- washed
Senator, a cbain-gapg Of Custom
House officials and federal postmas-
tiers, and bowling band Of hired ruff
fans and repeaterS brought up the
rear and feigned griet which they
were too insincere TO feel. After de-
posting the remains in a shallow
grave and leet1ng at an old white
haired preacher who remained over
the grave to mourn bis departed hopes
and blasted political prospects, the
Custom House and hired gang re.

In the death of this eminent fraud

the Sacramento races, silver plate
valued at $4,000 was offered to any
horse beating the best time on record
in California; and, as Goldsmith Maid
had trotted in 2:174 over the Agricul-
tural Park course, it was necessary
for Occident to beat that time if he
won the plate. On September 17th
the race course was crowded with
people, and Occident started. He
made the first quarter in .36a, and
