Following is democratic view of
the presidential situation at the pres
ent time, as set forth in New York, by
the daily Sun:
The San has remarkable editorial
under the heading "No Mincing Mat
ters," whereof the following are ex-
tracts: The democrats have sustained
an unexpected and Notifying defeat
in Indiana and Ohio. 1t is disastrous
apd may prove fatal. 1t is silly to
make light of it and idle to try to whit
tie it away by cunning calculations
and adroit figuring. The democrats
are beaten, badly beaten; whether
beaten to death or not is the only
question. 1t has Eseemed to us that
the whole democratic campaign was a
series of plumbers. The party had one
man (only one) whose i'm men Sc
strength had been demonstrated on
the national field-Samuel J. Tilden.
1t Is the one great, pra-eminent name
in the democratic party. He was a
reformer indeed, as his record in the
office of governor had proven; he was
a statesman, as all his public papers

improper practice rested upon them.
so patriotic, so lofty, so convincing
was his great letter to the convention
which made the nomination that the
most adroit, the ablest OF his enemies,
after reading it avowed his disposition
to support him. This illustrous man
the democratic party thought it could
dispense with as a candidate. There

EDITOR INDEPENDENT: On last Thursday
the 18th ult, Hon. Thos H. Brents, accom-
panied by n. II. Bloomfield, ESQ.,, addressed
the citizens of La Center on the political is
sues of the day. A large crowd of the real
"bone and sinew,' of Clarke county, and
some few from Cowlilz county had assembled
to hear the distinguished gentlemen. After
dinner at the La Center House, those as
sembled met in the spacious hall over Miller
& Gathers store. Capt. Buchanan was
chosen chairman and introduced Mr.. Brents
amid much applause OF hands and other like
demonstrations of welcome on the part of
the audience. Mr. Brents addressed the au-
dience for about an hour and ten minutes in
a well timed, clear and forclble Speech in
which be gave them an account of his stew
ardship, and of the circumstances which
would operate for or against our early adj
mission as a State into the union, and many
other matters of interest and Importance to
the people. He was frequently interrupted
by loud and hearty applause.
Mr. Bloomfield was next introduced and
was greeted BY loud applause. Several 9TH
ers were called for, and made short and
pithy speeches which were well received, af-
ter which the meeting Adjourned amid much
enthusiasm and good feeling

[. S. senator Wade Hampton Of
South Carolina, having been worsted
in an argument with John Sherman
Secretary of the Treasury, replies
again by challenging sherman to fight
a duel. That was the approved south
ern argument twenty years ago, but
it is very stale now, and will not win,
even if Hampton stays forever with
the cause which Lee and Jackson
fought for. Publication of the Hamp-
ton-Sherman correspondence followed
by the challenge sent to sherman by
Hampton has produced a great sensa-
ton throughout the country. North

Hampton, fearing heavy loss of votes

sequence ofthe affair

New England wall for % cents. The
democratic party, in making this nom-
ination, resembled him; only if report
be true, they did not get the % cents.
Now we are for looking the actual facts
squarely in the face. Who cannot do
that without flinching in defeat and
disaster as well as in victory, has no
manhood in his make. We are beaten;
we are overthrown; but we are not de-
stroyed. The disaster we have eXpe-
rienced may yet be retrieved.

PEKIN, w. T.. Oct. Is. 1850

EDITOR INDEPENDENTS: Sir: Hoping that a
few items of interest from this section of the
country would prove acceptable to your val
liable space, am willing to confer upon my
self the duty of a correspondent, providing
the editor will pardon me for my hardness
during the past few months.
The trustees have again employed Mr..
Glendye as teacher of the public school dur
ing the winter, which are good indications of
his proving himself a successful teacher.
The attendance has not been very large since
the beginning, owing to the deficiency in
numbers of the larger pupils who have been
engaged in getting in wild hay, aud doing
general fall work. The wild hay crop has
proven to be much better than was at first
anticipated, yielding from 2 to II tons to
the acre. The average cut will probably ex-
coed that of previous years by tons.
Farmers will have abundance of hay and
probably some to sell which is OF very
good quality, being comparatively free from
weeds. The amount OF timothy hay as an
export from the valley this year will be very
limited, which is attributable to the long con-
tinued and extreme high water The recent
high water did a great deal of damage in the
way of destroying crops, and removing fenc-
ing The financial prospect of the valley
was never better than that of last spring;
everything promising wellfor bountiful har-
vest. From prospect of 10000 to $4,000
bushels of grain, but 229 bushels have been
threshed; while other articles OF export have
suffered equally in proportion. A number
Of the farmers are making active improve
ment of the good weather which is prevail
ing during this month in clearing out land to
to be put in in the spring, which is good
proof Of their not being discouraged over
their losses of last Juue and July.

The republicans of Oregon had II
grand and successful political demon
stration in Portland on Tuesday night.
More than 5000 men bearing torches
were in the procession, which was
over mile long. 1t was an immense
success, and shows very clearly which
way success politically is drifting in
Oregon. The west seems to be work
ing as earnestly as the east to save
the country from the rule of the men
who fought four years with Lee and
Jackson to destroy it.

A heavy storm prevailedin the coun-
try east of the Rocky mountains on
Sunday, and in Nebraska sufficient
snow fell to block railroad trains in
many places. The winter is setting
in unusually early in that section.
Full reports show that the storm was
general over the whole country east of
the Rockies. Even in New York
trains were blockaded by snow and
ice. On the great lakes there We're
great losses of shipping and life. On
the prairies thousands of cattle and

The Dalles Inland Empire, which in
common with many other papers we
had announced as suspended, still
comes to our table, and note from
the editor, Mr.. Merry, informs us of
the cause of the rumor of suspension,
which originates in spite work from
parties who could not run or rule the
course of the paper. We are pleased
to make the announcement that the
Empire still lives, as it isa misfortune
to the public to lose the services of a
live newspaper, no matter what its
politics.

Gently purchased by Henry Willard, in
connection with 1900 acres of choice
agricultural land lately purchased by
the same party north of the Snake
river in the eastern portion of this Ter

pany, and possibly one of the several
coal mines situated near Seattle, will
form the basis of new company to be
organized in New York on the first of
January next, the name of which has
not yet been determined upon. 1t is
further ascertained that the recent
purchase of the :. & w. W. r. r., has
no connection with the o. X. q \. Co,
other than in the fact that Henry Viii

The Republicans of New York had a
demonstration that exceeded ANYTHING
ever known in the United States in
point of members and character Of the
participants. The Times says there
were $4,000 men in line. Among the
men who took part in the procession,
and who honored themselves no less
than the cause they espoused by their
presence, Were members Of very many
of the foremost firms of bankers. brok-
ers, produce merchants, dry goods and
carpet merchants and others, whose
names are aMong the best known in
various commercial callings.

Mound Digging in Highland County

Hlllsboro, o., March %-A partial examination
has been made Of the mound near Marshal, but
without finding more than is usually found in
mounds, such as skeletons, flint arrow heads,
stone axes, etc. No subterranean passage was
found leading 10 the recently discovered cave, or
any indications Of there ever having been such
connection. There Is regular chain Of these
mounds, extending from within about three and
half miles of Hillsboro eRslWsrdly several miles
to Fort Hill, where remains Of Notifications and
other works Of the Mound Builders are found.
The cave mentioned is still as great mystery as

the floor of the cave also charcoal and calcined
bones, the latter evidently burned while they
contained animal matter from the white appear.

instruments Of warfare have been found among
the bones, such as arrow points, spear points and

articles were found. Several human skeletons
were found, but there seems to be nothing pecu
lar in their size or form, except that one of
them is small, either the bones of child or very

UNCHRIsTIAN ROW.

PiGtsburg, Pa, March 29.-The Oak Alley Pres
byleran Church was the scene Of another dis
graceful row between the WOodside and Anti
Woodslde factions, the presence Of the Mayor and
police being found necessary for the preservation
Of peace. Both factions had called d meeting for
this morning to elect trustees, the Woodsides an
nounced that they would hold theirs in the
church. The opposition, to avoid trouble called
theirs in the house of the janitOr. When the lat
ter arrived there they found the Woods:ders in
possession. The anti-Woodsiders asserted their
rights, and insisted on their election. The scene
that ensued battles description. Tables and
ChaiH we're dragged about by both forces, at the
same time protesting with all the viEor and vehe
mence they could command. Fiually with the
aid Of the police order was restored, the anti
WoOdsiders withdrawing to the office Of their
lawyers where the voting was carried on without
further molestation. The woodsders also opened
polls at the church. Both sides are now claiming
the election Of their candidates as legal. More
trouble Is apprehended.
