OREGON'S PRINCE.

We find the following piece Of stun
ming intelligence drifting about among
the Brevties" Of our Eastern ex-
changes:
Henry Willard is to expend $l,000,-
600 in this erection of residence on
Madison avenue, near Fiftieth street,
New York.
IF this be true-and VIC have no
reason to doubt it--at first glance it
would appear that the financial grass
is not SO very short with Mr.. Willard,
after all, but on second thought mil
lion dollars is but drop in tho bucket,
to man who has an unfinished rail
road on bis hands, hungry stockholders
about his ears and hostile Congress
at his heels. 1t is n neat pile to bluff
with, to be sure--but who better than
Mr.. Willard, at such time, is justi-
fled in straining every effort to keep
up appearances, and carry himself with
the royal splendor expected from the
President of transcontinentnl railroads
Tho men who are paying 80 ton to
bring wheat from beyond the Cascades
to Portland may squirm little at this,
and feel that the hyas tyee Of the ben
evolent monopoly is having too much
joy Oh their money, but to US it is O
matter of congratulation; and We will
point to the palace with pride, as some
thing springing from the soil OF Oregon
built by the Drawn of our yeomen, and
publish to the world that this is the
way the New Northwest, in its graft
tude for overtaxing its farmers, mo
nopoliziDg every means of transporta
ton and damning those who havo ths
audacity to ask for lower freight rates
has Of rswarding its beloved bcnefac
tors! 1t IL pleasure enough tor us t
know that our farmers are able to keeT

York City, holding his head among tn.
clouds with the Vanderbilts ant
Goulds, and still keep alive themselves
without turning the matter over to dis
cover any new points to swill our joy

The Admission of Territories as
States.

TIL ere seems to be q great disposition
on the part of many Democratic mem
bers and Senators to oppose the ad-
miss: Dn Of any Territory at present,
and ! think / utter the general i'm
preston when | state that unless an
equal number Of Territories whose
voting population are supposed to be
Democratic are admitted, as those
whose population are supposed to be
Republican, there will be no admis-
sions, no bills passed as enabling acts
this session. For instance, let Wash.
ington admitted, then let Montana,
let Dakota be admitted, then Utah or
Arizona, aud it is claimed by those
who are advocating the admission OF
the after Territory that the popula.
ton has so increased this fall, with a
probability of further and much lar
ger increase in the spring, from tn,
immense impetus given to the mining
interest in Arizona that its population
will in less than twelve months out
