On account of his inability to speak the language of the common soldier, Don Carlos could not obtain a command of any kind in the Ilussian army, He is with ic, however, enjoy ing the rn-ivilege of having a royal escort of Cossacks, and of going wherever he pleases. England and France are disagree ably surprised at a new tariff which has suddenly been issued at Madrid, whereby imports front those countries are subjected to duties from fifteen to fifty per cent higher than those levied upon similar goods from Germany, Belgium, and elsewhere.

There was at Dieppe, in France, at last accounts an old three-masted vessel called the Petrtts, built 300 years ago. The stern is elevated and the bows are rounder than those of the present day. She is staunch and still in service. She was built in Nor way, and has always been employed In the Baltic and North Sea trade. The superintendent of the royal foundry at Woolwich, England, has made a report on the experiments with the big guns of the Italian iron clads Duilio and Dandolo, stating that the heaviest English ordnance would fail to pierce their armor, while the 100-ton Italian pieces could success fully damage any vessel in existence. An artesian well, sunk in Nevada on Eel River island, at the depth of 120 feet struck a current of gas which when ignited sent up a flame jet 36 feet high. A strong wind failed to put it out, and an eight hours' rain did not extinguish it. In the night a news paper could be read by its light 100 feet away.

The Walla WaUa Statesman says that -ve visited the railroad depot one day last -week and found the glut of grain even greater than at a corresponding period the week before. On some of the platforms it is stacked eighteen and twenty sacks deep, and the open prairie for blocks around is covered with grain. It is now quite evident that the means for moving the crop fall short of the demand, and that a very considerable amount of grain must remain over to an other season. Monday last the Oregon Steam Navigation com pany placed a third boat on the river, and these three are equal to moving fifteen hundred tons a week. It is a great misfortune that the means of transportation should be short, but it is now too late in the season to remedy the evil, and so our producers must oinn rmrl liov if. Q. . V-. .LU. Delicacy ix Women. If there is one trait in a woman's charac ter to be loved and admired above another, it is true, modest, unas suming delicacy. The true deli cacy of a woman consists in ad ministering to the wants of the distressed, giving counsel and good advice in a friendly manner, and in not seeming to know that she has done anything but her duty, and it in a very unobtru sive way. True delicacy will I never give offense, yet tell us of our worst faults at all tinies. Ave have known ladies with such a natural delicacy that our admira tion of that most estimable trait of character though they were very plain and not riQssessed of nature's beauty caused them to seem to us the mo-t beautiful of women. Delicacy made them so pure in thought, word and act, that our admiration did not allow us to see the fault of nature's adornement after we had known them a day. A delicacy that is natural is ever moddest, retiring and full of compassion a.nd human sympathy, it is possessed of a heart that is ever open to others' woe and sorrows. 2?Mt is too late in the day to argre heard it, and he repeated: "In one ot intelligent bu.-incss men the piopriety i my visits of inspection it was said that e--uy oi auveru-mc tneniseive.-. 1 1 was asked to dehne the proper oi t i--loo well organized now Uint : mensioIls of a Ilatch way Taii that I :t2 'That depends upc the size the haul time- suece.-taily which I of the htjn and the numoer ol eggs sue Oregon, the queen s.ate of the noith west holds in her right hand long life and whole'programme was made known In unusual health, and in her left great the lodge last evening.

The com pany paid (s2o,UGU for their min ing ground, and it will cost in the neighborhood of 10,000 to purchase and place in position pipes and other operatives for mining purposes.

A happy consignation is devo tedly to be wished, as it will not only advance the interests of the company, but the pros perity of the whole country.
