"Tall oaks fjom little acorns prow,' and if we are to believe one- half we hear, and interpret in the usual way the signs of thetini s, something very jrood and big will spring Irom the unpre'entious road that i now being rapidly built between Corvallia and Yavuina Bay. The greatest objection that is rati- d tot he success of this enterprise is the allegation that deep-sea vessels an never use Yaquina Bay for a har bor. One of the best arguments in refutation nt this is that a railroad is befog built there. Men who build railroads necessarily invest large sums of money, and it is not the practice among such persons to run their line "from no where to no place." The adaptability of Ya ouina Bay for a harbor must have hern tasoroneb-f studied before any n vestment of m-'tiey was made in that direeiion, and as railroad mana gers sire generally conceded to b-' among or most intelligent men, it is nonsense to suppose that in this in stance i hey have "trone off half-cocked," and know not what they are do ing. No ne den Us that Yaqtuua Bay need improving, but the ene mies of ilw Oregon Pacific ,-oad main tain that it is not susceptible of im provement. It was our pleasure when in Wash itiirton to be present at a conference of some thirty S nators aud Con gressmen called together for the pur ple of looking into the claims of Yaquina Bav for an 'ppropriation for its improvement, on which occasion maps, engineers reports, all kinds of esiimates and arguments pro and con were, thoroughly considered, and it was the unanimous opinion that if Mtfncient money could de obtained from the Government a good harbor could be made at the ocean terminus of the Oregon Pacific, Railrooo. Senator G rover, speakiug in tliio con nection, aid that he had no doubt but what Yaquina Bay could be made deep enough and safe enough for ocean steamers, but the difficulty vou!d be to gi t appropriations for it before it was connected with aome such base of snpplea as the Willam ette valley. Now that the road is fairly nnder way, and large gangs of men em ployed all along :.ta line our Con gressional delegates can demand ap propriations for the improvement of Yaquina Bay with every hope of ob taining a sum sufficient to visibly change the appearance and condition of things at the seaport and make the harbor all that is necessary for the wheat fleet that- will be needed. We have never entertained the tears, held by some, regarding the hopeless condition ot Yaquina Bay, aid feel confident that with necessa ry Congressional help one of the best Hit!" harbors on the Pacific Coast will result. In 1611) four cows and a bull were. afer a long and dangerous passage ly a sailing vessel, landed in Virginia from Ireland. These were the first domestic cattle seen in America. In 1625 eighteen ewes and two rams were mirouueeo as a novelty into New York by the Dutch West India Company. The first horses Ian led in any part of North America were car ried tver to Florida by (Jabecca de Vaea in 1527; they all peridied. The wild hors-s found on the plains of Texas and the western prairies are prohably descendtnls of the fine Spanish horses abandoned hv De Seto. In 1825 toart of the trade of he Dn'ch West India Company was the carrying of horses from Flanders to New York, aud that year six mares and a horse w. re safely trans ported from France to America. The London Comr any were the first ex porters ot swine from' Britain to America, and hi tire year 1624 they carried on their vessels no less than ighty four, which were all on land ng allowed to roam at large and feed aud fatten on the mast, which was very abundant in the woods. They increased so fe-t that in 162? the co'ony was in danger of being over run with them; but the Indians acquiring a taste for fresh pork and TWO AfF&TfONATE flrVALS. from the Galveston News. There were several mn clustered around the stove in the back room of a Galveston saloon, and somehow or other the- subject of newspapers came up for discussion. One man said that editors were more jealous ot each other than any other class; thai they never had a good word for each other, etc. A long haired youth, with a sol emn look, spoke up, and heaving a sigh, said he had had soma ezperi ence with editors and he found them the reverse of jealous of each other; that a Texas editor was always wil ling to deny himself comforts for the benefit of a brother editor. "Where did that happen?" "It happened in a Western Texas town where I lived," sighed the young 'man. 'I had dashed off a little poem of 'en or fifteen stanzas about "Beau tiful Spring." There were two rival papees in the place the Bugle and the Trombone. I had heard that the editors were deadly enemies and sighed to shed each other's gore, f.n' I was afraid that if I let the Trom bone publish my poem first there would be a deadly 'encounter, "I finally resolved to have it ap pear simultaneously in both papers. When I called on the editor of the Trombone he said that the editor of Bugle had a large family, and that he would prefer it wou.ld appear in the Bugle, as personally he loved the ed. itor of the Bugle. I went then to the Bugle mart, and he said the edi tor of the Trombone, was his warm est personal friend, and that he would Tie glad if I would let him have the poem, as it would be put ting bread in his mouth and clothes on his back. "So, owing o the lotre thse two editors had for each other, I couldn't get my poem into either of their pa pers, and it ha-n't been published yet. I never saw men so an xi us to help each other out of distress," and once more the lo.ig haired poet sigh ed like a bellows. There was a pause, and the old man with a frost bitten nose drawled out. "Yer never tried them same edi tors with a cash advertisement, did ye, The poet answered in the negative, whereat the andience significantly nodded their heads and winked at each other. HEATHEN WORSHIPPERS. A traveler visiting the "Holy Mountain" thus describes the relig ious condition of the Jains, a seel ot Budhists: "In our way np the great precipice of Girnar, we came upon various devottees, one of whom I was assured exposed himself almo.st entirely nakeil to summer's heat and winter's cold, and was even to be found at night in the same exposed situation atid scanty costume of ashes. He looked as if it might all be true; and on my expressing surprise at the hardships he underwent he rep'ied, "What does it matter to a poor old man like me, who only seeks for de liverance?" If yon want to find devotees, Girnar is the place to look for them; and they are all nearly; and some of them entirely, in what is del icately termed achailakya or "state of unclothedness." Notwithstanding its bare appearance from below, there is a great deal of thick woods in its clefts, and there they are to be found demanding alms for living in sjch a jungle, or too worn and wretched nd absorbed in apparent meditation to take the slightest notice of you. Every peak, except the dread Ka'lika, has its own peculiar saint perched on its windy summit. They crawl out of little caves and rude stone huts, and front behind waterfalls; they are in all varieties of costume, so far as paint, earth, and ashes can disguise the natural Adam; fhey are in all varieties of physical health, from round-limbed, muscular, savag -locking maniacs to shrivelled-up doling atomies; and they present all sort of menta states from total igno ring of your existence, as of every other earthly object, to one indicated by a maniacal gleam in their eyes; which really would make it not sur prising if they suddenly clasped you in thetr arms, dug their 'teeth in your shoulder, and leaped with yon over a precipice; hut They nVver do so, so far as I am awH're." LOOK OUT FOR EOB LINCOLN, The Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution re ports Judge O. A. Lochrane, of that State, who has recently returned from a visit to the north and west, as saying: "You want a point? The son of old Abe Lincoln, the present Secreta ry of War, will be the President ot these United Stales. He was one of the 306 Grant men at Chicago! and could brng that wing up. He's in with the administration, and, would not be distasteful to that wing. Do I know tuatf I do, and he's a man with the same Wonderful magnetism his father had. You look out for Bob Lincoln.
