The Oregon Election.

The result of' the Congressional election in Oregon appears to he in some do-slit vet. The Democratic papers state that Stout, the Democrat, is elected, but the New York 1 lines ot yesterday says its correspondent on the Pacific Coast gives a different statement ol the matter. It is probably not known vet which way the election has gone, but it is certain that how ever it may go, the race has been too close to give the Democracy anv ' satisfaction. The Republicans, i l ' they have not succeeded-- have come very close to it, stf close that they can in ike sure of success next time, and that cannot l-ut he particularly unpleasant to Gen. Lane, who has so loirc* owned the territory. That worthy appears to fie passing through Mr. Bright's experience in this Slate. After ruling his party, and through it the State, for fifteen yearsMr. Bright has fallen too low to ever rise aga.n. '1 his is not only admitted, but glo- | ried in by more Democrats than those who openly despise him. Gen. Lane appears tohave reached pretty near the same stage of politica l we.ikness in his ow n State. When these corrupt and unscrupulous regencies pro broken up, the Democracy will fall apart into .‘‘ties of opinion, instead of lines ot mere organization, and its days-, will aave been, numbered.
