A SraAw.--Wo learn from tho Ore
goaida that Mt tho Republican pri-
mary meetings, hold in Portland last
Saturday, only GSS votes were cast,
against / ZOO two years ago. This is
"a remarkable decrease, and shows
that the Republican vote of that city
has lossoned as fast as the most in
yeteroto hater Of that party could
reasonably wish Thoro is no doubt
but that with a reasonable effort and
harmonious action in the Democratic
ranks of Mulmomah, that county
may bo redeemed from Radical pow
er and Ring corruption in our ap-
preaching election.

A GOOD AUGURY.

The spring elections, thus far, have
resulted almost uniformly in Demo.
cratic gains.
New Hampshire was fist to speak,
and gave a cheering verdict in favor
of Democracy, redeeming the Old
Granite State from Radical misrule.
Connecticut voted on the 9Th Of
April, and Ingersoll, Democrat, is
reelected Governor by an increased
majority. The Democrats have a
majority in both branches of the
Legislature, which secures Demo-
cratic United States Senator in the
place of a Republican.
In Michigan the town elections are
about equally divided between Dem
ocrats and Republicans.
The Democrats have carried Gin
cinnati by a majority of four thou
sand, which is large Democratic
gain.
In Toledo, Ohio the Democratic
ticket is successful.
Davenport elects Liberal Mayor
and the majority of the other officers.
Keokuk elects Judge Jaeger, over
his Republican competitor, which is q
complete revolution. Last year
Keokuk went strongly Republican.
At the election in Austin, Nevada,
last Monday, two tickets were in the
ield-Domocrats and Citizens. The
Democrats elected the Mayor, A. II.
Post, and four Aldermen-Wagner
n the First Ward, Dunemore and
the Second, and Kylor in
he Third.
The general result of the spring
elections is extremely favorable to
he Democrats. The Republicans
eem hopelessly demoralized and un-
BILE to concentrate their strength,
nd most remarkable of all, we hayn't
card anything from our Radical
apers this spring about the "Of
ear" in politicsl In fact it is get
ing to be the "oir year" every year
ow for our Republican friends. -
he fag end of that domoralized
arty will be off in Oregon "for

AN INGENIOUS DEFENCE. In the police
court at Chicago, few weeks since, wife
thus ingeniously explained away serious
charges Of harsh treatment of her poor
husband: Zone day when she was run
ming across the room with fork in her
hand, he jumped in the way and struck
his wrist against the fork, wrenching it
from her grip by the prongs, which he ran
into his wrist Then he endeavored to
strike her but she held up pan of hot
dish water between them, and he spilled
it all over his head Then he got still
more angry at this accident, and started
to jump at her, but his head came against
her hand, and he fell down. She took
hold of his hair to raise him up, and the
hair was moistened by the het water, so
that it came off. Then she saw it was no
use to reason with him any longer, and
she left the house."
