'The Jacksonville Reporter of Not. 25th did not reach us until Monday last, but we hail it with a hearty welcome, late as the.mails brought it. In it is the introductory of iu new editor, Mr. Frauk R. Stuart, and he gives forth the earnest of sterling metal. t is Democracy that he utters not the whited semblance of it, and we rejoice at the accession of so worthy a in the broad, fruitful field which the Demo- crats of Oregon are sure to handsomely harvest next June. Wo are doubly glad to know that the Reporter will be main- tained in its sphere of usefulness, and that our party brethren in Southern Ore- gon will be so fitly and ably represented through its columns. Hero is a key note taken from Mr. Stuart's Introductory : We shall exert oursclros te the extent of our ability to rcist the effort now being made by some of the leauung firojeise lctnocrftts, ia Oregon and elsewhere, to wean the De- mocracy from its true allegiance, and trans- fer it to the support of Andrew Johnson- - an apostate .

Success to them, lull of the President's Amnesty, hnll not bo required to take tho oath, while it is ixui lcd of the old citizen of tho. State who jlmv continuously resided hero lor years. Tho lOftt to tho tStato for practically carrying out tho operations uf this Bill is barely Muted -- the Registers aro to re- ceive a compensation oi twenty-liv- e cents for one h psuio registered.

Tho Rill is iu fact a declaration of war or servitude, to ojerate only against Dem ocrats. The Abolitiouists are well aware that Orcgou is now undoubtedly Demo cratic! U sentiuicut that the next State election will result in a Democratic tri umph, if souio arbitrary, unconstitutional, and coercive measures, aro not adopted t-- : prevent pueh a conclusion. This Bill is the engine by which they hope to con tinue the power to themselves, to secure the success ol their ticket. Lot Democrats now spply themselves to a full considera tion of the political situation. There is no need of hasty or precipitate action, but there is every need for complete orgaui-tio- n, wis and calm deliberation, and, to follow these, a firm, united, resolute ac- - tiou at the critical moment. Tho Bill is in every sense an atrocious aud infamous ono. ihe oath is akiu to that which a liighwaytnau or an assashin might exact, and is worthy no better consideration. Our party brethren, wo feel perfectly con- scious, will be fully able to meet the great emergency which tho passago of tho Bill will devolve upon them, and for that good time let us all agree to patiently wait. We aro numerically strongest. Wo should nil remember tho old fabh of tho father and his sons with tho bundlo of rods.

THIS GOVLltXOIt'N nVJiKUl We havo not spaco in this issuo to pub linh tli Message of Governor Gills, sent o the Special session of the legislative Assembly, oa tho opening day, Dee. 5th, as yre rvceited a copy too lata for that purpose. At this time we cau do no more than to giro out readers a cursory re-tis- w of it. The Message start out with a eort of eehoolboy diatribe against slavery, in the first part of which the Governor tells the Legislative Assembly that his principal abject in calUajj them together is to them ; to adopt the proposed amendment to the Federal Constitution for the total abolition of slavery. From (his, to show them why they ought to do it, he quotes from De Tocquevllle, Lord Falmerston. and Secretary Seward, and pervert the language of Thoa. Jefferson, to demonstrate the Bin, the curse, aud the horror of slavery, lie fails to remark that Washington and the patriot sages of the Revolutionary period countenanced and sustained it j that John Adams and John Qnincy Adams both recognised and supported it; that the Federal Constitu- tion guarantees it, and that the Supreme Court of the United States has tiiue and again decided the right of masters to hold slaves. But the Governor evidently ed - a subject upon which to spread himself, and he has pressed slavery into that service most excruciatingly. II is composition" upon it is quite as good as any usually heard at exhibitions in Puri- tan schools. I Front slavery the Message jumps to Suffrage," and here, while the Governor is wordy, it cannot be said that he is not absolutely wretched. II is arguments are the basest of sophistries, and are even worse in sentiment than contemptible iu reasoning. Ilia purpose is apparent -- it is to pave the way for the eoaUnaatioa of the Abolition party of Oregon in power by any and all means ; and to do this, even in the face of a positive popular majority against it, he has recourse to a Registry law. But we speak of the" BUI introduced for this purpose elsewhere, and will only say here that, in recommending the mea- sure Lo docs, Gov. Gibhs virtually violates the oath he has taken aa Chief Magistrate to support and defend the Constitution of . Oregon. Some may think these are harsh and. hasty words. They are neither but Tally merited on the one hand, and delib- erately penned oa the other. . The sin " rests with Gov. Gibbs,ia committing bini- - ' self as he does we simply in fit terms and . as mildly as the circumstances will admit . characterise his act. f In our next issue shall attempt to morexlearly and com-- ; pletcly illustrate our position. SuEce it ' here to remark that the Message labors to -- manufacture reasons why the . iniquitous Bill already introduced ought to be pass - el, and that the reasonings arc as tile as - th Bill is abominable. - He suggests that the division line be- - - ' tween the counties of Jackson and Wasco be so drawn as to bring the Klamath Lake country into the former county. Next, he refers to the Draconian Code and suggests a more specific definition to the class cf offences included ia the intol- - f eraat Sxmday fewv ; He evidently talks for I,,VoncoaiW oa this tabjeet, like on who i wished to 1WM with the fanatical Puritans and to rui with the publicans and .tin v. tiers, at the same time. .

Tho brief time tho copy of the Rill has becu in our pos-scssio- n pm-luilc- s ui from reviewing its atrocious features iim fully as we dcrfiro. It provides for tho appoint ment of a Reginter to every voting pro ciuct, by the County CourU, and tlies--e Registers aro to sit to receive the names ofrotcrs for thirty days, the cloning day At . i . .1 . 1 . oi i no silting to ou inirty uays prior to the day of election. Theso provision place it iu the power of the County J Uvlge to appoiut any tool of their owu as KcgU-- j tcrs, and work the grevious wrong uf cvyry voter who may not be able to call at the Registry ufliee during the allotted thirty days. A bona fide voter, who tuay bo a resident of uny rivcu precinct, if absent during thec thirty days, or sick, or from any eauo is unable to atteud during that period at the Reg- istry ofliw, cannot vote, even though he were to return, or was enabled to call for tho registry uf his name, ou tho tweuty-uiut- h day preccdicg tho eleetiou, or ou any subsequent day. Again, voters who are, under the Con- - tution and present law regulating elec tions, entitled to vote for State and Dis- trict officers out of their own precinct, if through busiucas or other causes, absent from their place of reaidenco ou the day of election, aro disfranchised. To bo al- lowed tho right to vote a citizen mut not ouly have been a resident of his precinct the constitutional and lawful time, but he must have his name on tho registry book from sixty to thirty days before tho elec- tion j and after this registering of his name he must take tho iu famous oath pre scribed in this Bill, at the polls, or have his vote rejected. A startling feature of this Bill is that it surrenders entirely to the discretion or option of tho Registers, tho right to re cord or reject the name of tho applicant, and, in case of tho refusal of any Register to record the name of an applicant, the latter has no appeal from his decision, no recourse against the officer for tho gricv. ous outrage upon his highest right as a citiren. The Register's authority is su preme and Sual ; ho can record or reject the nsmo of a known voter at his pleas ure, will or caprice, and yet go entiiely unpunished for tho high-haudo- d tyranny which destroys tho citixcu's right of sul-frag- e. The officer is invested with the utmost power, without limit whatever, and yet is relieved from responsibility iu any shape for the faithful performance of his duty. Thcro cannot bo found a par allel for this monstrous provision on the statute books of any State in the Republic It is borrowed from absolutism, and is most destructive iu its operation. Again, it is required of every voter that he shall, before being permitted to vote, take the infamous oath prescribed. And after he docs this, it is left apparent ly, to the option or caprice of the Election Judges whether or not his vote shall be received. The Bill assumes for its chief object the security of the election against the Totes of persons lately from the "re bellious" or " disloyal" States, who par- ticipated in or sympathized with " the re bellion." . If this were really the object of its framers, why did they not confine the prescription of tho oath, or the latter por tion of it, exclusively to emigrants f They have not done this ; but, on tho contrary. compel the citizen who has resided in Ore gon for twenty years steadily to take the full oath equally with tho " rebel" lately came from a " rebellious" State. But there is a latent poison in the oath which is cunningly directed against the old Democratic voters of Oregon in order that they may be disfranchised. It is charged by the Abolitionists that there is, or has been, a "secret organization" of Democrats in this State, which is or was " treasonable,'! and it is against any and all who may belong or who did belong to that organization, one especial clauso in the oath is directed. We would gladly have that clause strictly and justly ad ministered, for if it be, every member of the treasonable and damnable Loyal League and nearly every Abolitionist in Oregon has been or is a member of it would be inhibited from voting. But the rule will not be justly applied." It wil be directed only against Democrats. Thus, if a Democratic citizen presents himself before the Register of his precinct for the purpose of having his name registered that officer is permitted to ask , him what ever questions be pleases, without gtint or limit, and if it shall appear that the citi- zen has ever belonged to any " secret or- ganization,", no matter how purely patri- otic its object, or declines to answer that question, either the Register then refuses to record his name,-or- , if he ; does record it, the Judges on the day of election wil refuse to receire his vote. Xefc a Loya Leaguer, whose secret organization oath was compound treason against both the Federal and State Constitutions, is ncith- - jer questioned on that score nor refused j his vote because of his membership i Again, the Bill provides that any rebel "" Ifrook,- - rifi Kew Y'oHr, wade a speech cbaraet-hin- g the tiiiJiK-'lo- of the names of tbe member from the rollja enpneedented, mijt and totally uncalled for.

Most Welcome. 'The JacksonvilleReporter of Not. 25th did not reach usuntil Monday last, but we hail it with ahearty welcome, late as the.mails broughtit. In it is the introductory of iu neweditor, Mr. Frauk R. Stuart, and hegives forth the earnest of sterling metal.t is Democracy that he utters not the

whited semblance of it, and we rejoice atthe accession of so worthy a inthe broad, fruitful field which the Demo-

crats of Oregon are sure to handsomelyharvest next June. Wo are doubly gladto know that the Reporter will be main-

tained in its sphere of usefulness, andthat our party brethren in Southern Ore-

gon will be so fitly and ably representedthrough its columns. Hero is a key notetaken from Mr. Stuart's Introductory :

We shall exert oursclros te the extent ofour ability to rcist the effort now being madeby some of the leauung firojeise lctnocrftts,ia Oregon and elsewhere, to wean the De-

mocracy from its true allegiance, and trans-fer it to the support of Andrew Johnson- - anapostate . Temoerat and a time-serve- r andurns mace it me tooiot mumiuaiamumn ;

bolievine it to tie subversive of the caue uttrue rcpuLlietfiiUui, and, if successful willsurely result in the dismemberment ot ourparty, ana tnus aeler uie nope or peaoe andsecurity to our dutracted country.

We are especially rejoiced at this distinct, manly, unequivocal avowal, becauseof a sentence which appeared in the Valedictory of the late editor, with referenceto "Johnson Democracy." 2Tow,woknowjust where tho Reporter stands. A righthearty welcome to" its editor, and high suecess to his brave Democratic organ.

Oh, most illustrious General, you do us

wrong you do, indeed. Hot in the whole

State was there a warmer admirer of thevery last act the last Legislative Assemblycommitted than our humble self, mostmighty General. ... We allude to the adjournment. It was the only good or decent act of the whole session, however.

ITt RDAY, DECF.MBElt O, !.THIS GOVLltXOIt'N nVJiKUlWe havo not spaco in this issuo to pub

linh tli Message of Governor Gills, sento the Special session of the legislative

Assembly, oa tho opening day, Dee. 5th,as yre rvceited a copy too lata for thatpurpose. At this time we cau do no morethan to giro out readers a cursory re-tis- w

of it.The Message start out with a eort of

eehoolboy diatribe against slavery, in thefirst part of which the Governor tells theLegislative Assembly that his principalabject in calUajj them together is to

them ; to adopt the proposedamendment to the Federal Constitutionfor the total abolition of slavery. From(his, to show them why they ought to doit, he quotes from De Tocquevllle, LordFalmerston. and Secretary Seward, andpervert the language of Thoa. Jefferson,to demonstrate the Bin, the curse, aud thehorror of slavery, lie fails to remarkthat Washington and the patriot sages ofthe Revolutionary period countenancedand sustained it j that John Adams and

John Qnincy Adams both recognised andsupported it; that the Federal Constitu-tion guarantees it, and that the SupremeCourt of the United States has tiiue andagain decided the right of masters to holdslaves. But the Governor evidently ed

- a subject upon which to spreadhimself, and he has pressed slavery intothat service most excruciatingly. II is

composition" upon it is quite as good as

any usually heard at exhibitions in Puri-

tan schools.

I Front slavery the Message jumps to

Suffrage," and here, while the Governoris wordy, it cannot be said that he is notabsolutely wretched. II is arguments arethe basest of sophistries, and are evenworse in sentiment than contemptible iureasoning. Ilia purpose is apparent --itis to pave the way for the eoaUnaatioa ofthe Abolition party of Oregon in power

by any and all means ; and to do this, evenin the face of a positive popular majorityagainst it, he has recourse to a Registrylaw. But we speak of the" BUI introducedfor this purpose elsewhere, and will only

say here that, in recommending the mea-

sure Lo docs, Gov. Gibhs virtually violatesthe oath he has taken aa Chief Magistrateto support and defend the Constitution of

. Oregon. Some may think these are harshand. hasty words. They are neither butTally merited on the one hand, and delib-

erately penned oa the other. . The sin" rests with Gov. Gibbs,ia committing bini- -' self as he does we simply in fit terms and. as mildly as the circumstances will admit. characterise his act. f In our next issue

shall attempt to morexlearly and com-- ;pletcly illustrate our position. SuEce it

' here to remark that the Message labors to-- manufacture reasons why the . iniquitousBill already introduced ought to be pass

- el, and that the reasonings arc as tile as- th Bill is abominable.- He suggests that the division line be--

- ' tween the counties of Jackson and Wasco

be so drawn as to bring the KlamathLake country into the former county.

Next, he refers to the Draconian Codeand suggests a more specific definition tothe class cf offences included ia the intol- -

f eraat Sxmday fewv ; He evidently talks forI,,VoncoaiW oa this tabjeet, like on whoi wished to 1WM with the fanatical Puritans

and to rui with the publicans and .tinv. tiers, at the same time. . An amendment-- to the criminal jurisdiction of the Jnsti. ces Courts is also recommended. But- cc uusjus liic ufiiiiwM vjuc u v ruwo a

Tho brief time tho copy of the Rill hasbecu in our pos-scssio- n pm-luilc- s ui fromreviewing its atrocious features iim fullyas we dcrfiro. It provides for tho appointment of a Reginter to every voting prociuct, by the County CourU, and tlies--e

Registers aro to sit to receive the namesofrotcrs for thirty days, the cloning day

At . i . .1 . 1 .oi i no silting to ou inirty uays prior tothe day of election. Theso provisionplace it iu the power of the County J Uvlge

to appoiut any tool of their owu as KcgU-- jtcrs, and work the grevious wrong uf

cvyry voter who may not beable to call at the Registry ufliee duringthe allotted thirty days. A bona fide

voter, who tuay bo a resident of uny rivcuprecinct, if absent during thec thirtydays, or sick, or from any eauo is unableto atteud during that period at the Reg-

istry ofliw, cannot vote, even though hewere to return, or was enabled to call fortho registry uf his name, ou tho tweuty-uiut- h

day preccdicg tho eleetiou, or ou

any subsequent day.Again, voters who are, under the Con- -

tution and present law regulating elections, entitled to vote for State and Dis-

trict officers out of their own precinct, ifthrough busiucas or other causes, absentfrom their place of reaidenco ou the dayof election, aro disfranchised. To bo al-

lowed tho right to vote a citizen mut not

ouly have been a resident of his precinctthe constitutional and lawful time, but he

must have his name on tho registry bookfrom sixty to thirty days before tho elec-

tion j and after this registering of hisname he must take tho iu famous oath prescribed in this Bill, at the polls, or havehis vote rejected.

A startling feature of this Bill is thatit surrenders entirely to the discretion oroption of tho Registers, tho right to record or reject the name of tho applicant,and, in case of tho refusal of any Registerto record the name of an applicant, thelatter has no appeal from his decision, no

recourse against the officer for tho gricv.ous outrage upon his highest right as a

citiren. The Register's authority is supreme and Sual ; ho can record or rejectthe nsmo of a known voter at his pleasure, will or caprice, and yet go entiielyunpunished for tho high-haudo- d tyrannywhich destroys tho citixcu's right of sul-frag- e.

The officer is invested with theutmost power, without limit whatever,and yet is relieved from responsibility iuany shape for the faithful performance ofhis duty. Thcro cannot bo found a parallel for this monstrous provision on thestatute books of any State in the RepublicIt is borrowed from absolutism, and is

most destructive iu its operation.Again, it is required of every voter

that he shall, before being permitted tovote, take the infamous oath prescribed.And after he docs this, it is left apparently, to the option or caprice of the ElectionJudges whether or not his vote shall bereceived. The Bill assumes for its chiefobject the security of the election againstthe Totes of persons lately from the "rebellious" or " disloyal" States, who par-

ticipated in or sympathized with " the rebellion." . If this were really the object ofits framers, why did they not confine theprescription of tho oath, or the latter portion of it, exclusively to emigrants f Theyhave not done this ; but, on tho contrary.compel the citizen who has resided in Oregon for twenty years steadily to take thefull oath equally with tho " rebel" latelycame from a " rebellious" State.

But there is a latent poison in the oathwhich is cunningly directed against theold Democratic voters of Oregon in orderthat they may be disfranchised. It ischarged by the Abolitionists that there is,or has been, a "secret organization" ofDemocrats in this State, which is or was" treasonable,'! and it is against any andall who may belong or who did belong tothat organization, one especial clauso inthe oath is directed. We would gladlyhave that clause strictly and justly administered, for if it be, every memberof the treasonable and damnable LoyalLeague and nearly every Abolitionist inOregon has been or is a member of itwould be inhibited from voting. But therule will not be justly applied." It wilbe directed only against Democrats. Thus,if a Democratic citizen presents himselfbefore the Register of his precinct for thepurpose of having his name registeredthat officer is permitted to ask , him whatever questions be pleases, without gtint orlimit, and if it shall appear that the citi-

zen has ever belonged to any " secret or-

ganization,", no matter how purely patri-

otic its object, or declines to answer thatquestion, either the Register then refusesto record his name,-or-

, if he ; does recordit, the Judges on the day of election wilrefuse to receire his vote. Xefc a LoyaLeaguer, whose secret organization oathwas compound treason against both theFederal and State Constitutions, is ncith- -

jer questioned on that score nor refusedj his vote because of his membershipi Again, the Bill provides that any rebel
