BEE-HIVE A Watch Next Week's Paper ! Look' for the Bee-Hive" ad! It will interest you, as Saturday, July 11th, We inaugurate our FIRST GRAND SEMI-ANNUAL CLEARANCE SALE I s Bey rures quickly, per niauontly au 'A- BEE-HIVE. (Mo.) Weekly Tiibune of April 4, 18-lfl, publish the following letter from resident of Oregon City, which through the courtesy of I, C. Caules of this city we are permitted to publish: We have been shown a letter from lluifh Burns (formerly of this countvl to Allen M'Lane, Esq., dated March 29t'h. tend, which came by the Sandwich isiunus; ine substance of it we give oeiow, nearly in air. U's own glowing language, tve regret to be compelled to abridge it all. Mr. Burn 'who by the way, can be relied on) represents the country as equal to any other for raising small grain and vegetables ; "should 5000 come here next fall, thev will find abundance of everything necessary for their comfort. There is a steady de mand for produce, and yet plenty to supply all demands. He thinks it is the healthiest Dart of the clobe. Durlmr his residence of two years and a half, not more than half a dozen have died outof the white population (numbering in the fall of 1842. four thousand, in cluding his company, and. now five thou sand, according to the census taken un der an act of the last Oregon Legisla ture ) The increase in wealth and com fort has kept pace with the growth of population." a "The last winter hns been warmer than the two preceding winters, but more rain ; no tain the last five weeks, and during that timii, many thousand bushels ol wheat and other grain have been put in the ground. It is astonish ing to see the large farms that are made here in a short time; men catne here last December that will by the first of Mav, have under cultivation 250 acres ana this all piouL'tieit with tne oxen that came from the States last fall- having nothing to eat hut ilii grass of the plains, which is rich, strong and ever green, llie farmers bring freeh owl to market now (ami have done so all winter) that is as good as I ever saw in Upper Missouri in summer, it is better than any I oversaw any where." in retereuce to an acco.int unfavor able to Oregon, snid to have been given by Hastings (author of a work on Cal ifornia) Mr. B states that seven familcs out of nine in Hasting' company re mained in Oregon, and have done well. "About sixty of us," he continues, 'stopped here (at the falls of the Willa inetie) and I do not know one of that number who is worth Imss than 2500 dollars." Alluding to a former letter f his own, he sava "I wish every poor man in the United Suites could see it, and follow my example." , , There are tn mills in active opera tion, and by next fall. UVe more will be added ; and aituated in all parts of the settlement. .; . -. He recommends future emigrants-to start in April bring light, strong wagons 1 arawn by mules or oxen, and plenty ol provisions ten waggons in a company no generals or captains The waggons can come as far as the Dalles, then by water the balance of the way. Dr. B. 8. Lonit has also shown us a letter dated January 18th, 1845, from our old and much esteemed friend, Peter H . Burnett, from which we make an extract 1 "Farming, is exceedingly profitable here. Yon can raise any number of cattle, horses, sheep, and hogs. Pork is as good, and as easily grown here as tn Missouri . Fork Is 110. beef So. cows sou, norses from S30 to 80; a breeding tow is worth 120. piirs S5 each. The first) ear, it is expensive living, but alter the first you can make your own provisions. ine country is improvtnc rapidly in every direction. Of all the climates in the world this is certainly the most aureeable no sud den changes, extremes The coldest weather we have yet had this winter, was a hard frost. Turnips, cabbagds carrots and beets stand out all winter and never freeze, but continue gracing an tne time. The prairie now is as green as a wheat field, and we feed nothing but our cows and pig-t. ' Tins is beyond dispute the nrst wheat country in the world, both as to the nuantitv nml nnulitv nf thn nrlirlH for the sake ol your olnlilrn es pecially you ought to come here. Bring some apple grafts; cut them oil in the winter, put them up in a tin box air tight, and then put that in a woonen box, and they will come safe. There are no good apples yet in this country."
