Whether the object be that of Queen Catherine, to perpetuate their names, and grafify a desire to behold the un. conditional homage of au unsophistica ted populace, or to asccrtaiu the ex tent to which the people of the Pacific coast can be gulled, or to establish a mammoth corporation which will stand as a perpetual engine of destruction to the free and independent will of the people—controlling them politically, so cially. und financially, time alone will will prove; hut sufficient has already been developed to justify most any charge of corruption and outrage upon tho people, limited only by the capaci ty of that great gambler in stocks, cards, steamboats, and the resources ol the country. It is what that Company would do if they could, of which we shall speak. The action of the last Legislature in donating to Ben. llolladay & Co. ■a tract of land which the Sate does not, and, mark us, never will, have the dis position of, (having two years ago per formed that aet.) may be, and we think is, subject to censure, on account of the evil which it has entailed ; but with the motives of the members, wc have nothing to do, feeling that they were honorable, and that their action was prompted by a desire to subserve the interest-* of the State. It is not strange that members were for weeks undecided, or that their fi nal action was one which is already b ginning to appear to be directly an tugonistic to tho interests of the State ot Oregon. It is is a fact that (he prosperity of Central, Eastern and Southern Oregon has been bartered away to an unscrupu lous and iner«.inary Company, which has already commenced to to turn noon it- benefactor— to smite the hand which was extended to it in kitidne-s—aud to rob us of the commercial advantages which our position marked out for us. Wc repeat that every section ef the Slate has been in turn duped and de eciveil by the real railroad company k nown as the East-Side, and the nom inal directors thereof are, if anything, equally deceived aud wronged. It will he remembered, when joint memorial. No. 1 (Chapman's) was be lore the House, Kirk of Umatilla coun ty, in eastern Oregon, offered an amend, meet in effect to ask aid from the General Government to construct the Salt Lake branch in a direct line to Pu get Sound, via the Snoqiialimie Pass, and that amendment was bitterly at tacked by members from all portions ef the Slate—by Gazelyuf Douglas,White of Jackson, Chapman of Multnomah, and many others—and ou a final vote w as r<jeeted: Nays, 45; Yeas, 1. The reasons offered by c ich member wero the same: They objected in the strongest terms to any action on the part of the Legislature looking to the recognition of the commercial predom inance of Puget Sound, in Washington Territory, oyer the ports within the ter- r’torial limits of our own State. It was an unsafe proposition for the rival rail road companies to entertain ; and when the llolladay Company, to secure the votes of certain members, promised to throw their influence infavor of the di- eet route, they made that promise in secret, and in secret it was and still is kept. Tn titi /as me Wtrs all right, but the el ego titillabo te was uever heard from. Eastern Oregon was doubly sold. First, the Queen Catherine Company for the universal construction of rail roads, never favored the branch from Eastern Oregon direct to the Sound, be- canse if would build up a foreign port, to tho injury of our own ports; and sec ondly, we now behold them running directly for the S ound , and directly away from P ortland !— Commercial W iseacres .— A great many very ig. norant and stupid loilists claim that the republicans in the House resigned be cause the Democrats were going to im peach the Governor. Now, had the aforesaid loilists known that it required a two third vote to impeach, and that it required two-thirds of all the mem bers elected to constitute a quorum for the transaction of businass, and that the Democrats never had a two- third* majority and could not possibly have impeached the Governor, why, they might have s-ved themselves the humiliation pf having made asses of themselves by making the absurd plea.

I t is a scientific fact that, during this process of human degeneration and de« cay an immense number of powerful poisons have been introduced into the medical repertoire, while the mild veg etable system of treatment exclusively practiced when the world was young, has been in a great measure abandoned by tho medical profession. This is a singular coincidence, and it suggests the possibility ot a direct connection be. tween the physical deterioration of tho species, and „the wholesale administra. tion of deadly miucral and other drugs. It may well he doubted whether the mineral salts and oxyds, and the no less dangerous alkaloids, wlrch chemistry has added to the pharmacopoeia, have not destroyed more lives thau all the diseases they have been prescribed to cure. One thing, at least, is certain— viz : that the average term of human existence has been shortened since the days when the vegetable kingdom was the only medical dispensary known to mankind. The truth is—and sensible people arc becoming more alive to it every day— that tho world is overdoetoved. The principles of medication aro simple; but they have been so befogged by tech, idealities, so mystified by profes ional verbiage, that one half the community fancy they can neither be interpreted nor applied except by persons who have been taught to clothe the living truths vf science in dead languages. It is not to the interest of “ the Faculty” that the throiy and practice of medicine should be simplified and popularized , aad therefore the public conceive but iittK- light from tin t quart.r.

With a system strength ened and fortified by the use of this in. vigorant, no one who possesses common a prudence need fear the effects of maU aria. It is the lest safeguard against infection at present known. It produces appetite ; it promofes digestion ; it pre vents constipation : it regulates the flow of bile; it strengthens the nerves, it purifies the animal fluid.-; it clears tho brain; and, the vehicle of its medical properties being .a pure diffusible stim ulant, their influence is extended to every portion of the system. Mcra alcoholic stimulants, though administer*, eu largely iu medical practice, arc not iu themselves medicines ; but they per vade the whoie orgauizatiou more cer tainly and swiftly than anything else tnat can be given. They are quickly taken up by the absorbents, and tliero is not a fiber of the body between tho crown ot the head aud the sole of tho foot whieh is exempted from their in fluence. Hence a spiritous stimulant is the best medium for conveying to all the organs and members of a leeble or disordered system the means whereby that system is to he recruited and reg ulated. I t is for this purpose that the alcoholic elements is used in the pre- partition of Hostcttor’s Stomach Bitters, It is simply the instrument by which the medical virtues of the preparation are carried to their objective points and rendered active. i t is alm ost necessary to call the attention of dyspeptics io a medicine which is everywhere recognized as the standard specific for Indiges tion. In every town in the United States which c«mtains a drug store, or a store in which drugs aro sold, it is known as a remedy for stom acu complaints of every class, from simple flatulen cy up to the most obstinate chronio torpidity of th a t most im portant organ.
