Oregon Election.

The overland mail from California, says the Stale Journal, brings still later news from the Oregon election. The San Francisco Times ot the 18th of July furnishes returns from all the counties but Curry, and they give Logan (Republican,) for Congress, fiftyone majority, Curry is a Republican county, and the vote of Benton, reported at two hundred for Stout (Democrat,) is alledged to be illegal, so that Logan’s election seems to be pretty certain. If Benton is thrown out, his majority will be near three hundred. It is considered doubtful if the Democratic State authorities, under Joe Lane’s dictation, will give him his certificate, but may be he can get his seat, with a fair election and a good majority, without General Joe Lane,s assent.
