It Is said on good authority that Mills ntul the frco traders aro growing less confident r carrying their bill in the house. BeprescntutiveThoinp son, of California, said to-day that ho felt confident that beforo tho bill passed, nil tho fruits placed upon tho free list or upon which tanfi' was leduced would bo reduced to the present standard, and Mills has recently made this concession to se cure the two democratic votes of California. This is an important concession to make at this crisis, and indicates, beyond doubt, that Jills is weakening. y ttt'iwi ' Trcniurer Tato'H Shortage. Louisvilll (Ky.) April 24 The report of the commissioners ap pointed to Investigate tho afi'airs of absconding Treasurer Tate's olllce, was submitted to tho Kentucky legislature to-day. It contained no sensational disclosures, tho deficit being placed in the neighborhood of 230,000. Tho Oregon Land Company yesterday inserted a now and ex tended "ad." in our columns, ofler ing one hundred pieces of property tor sale, and intimating that they have more on their list. Tho observ ing man who looks over this catalogue can seo chances of profit able Investment that must make hisMiiouth water. Hero is one effer: "Fifty neres, adjoining Salem, 145 lots laid ofT;?10,000." This anether: "Ten acres of fruit land, 4 miles from Salem; $300." And here a third: "Twenty acres, 4 miles from Salem, house, barn, dry house and large orchard; $1,000." Wo are not paid by the above enterprising company to pull their properties, and we pass nojudgnient on the comparative cheapness of these parcels of land, (according to the present scale of prices,) or on any of the other offers contained in their list. We have been dwelling In these columns on the very profit able chances of Investment ofl'ered to the speculatorandthe landncekor in this locality, or In the entire Willamette valley, if wo choose to take in so wide a rango, and we call attention to tho list published on another page, to give specialty and precision to the general statements we have made. It is known tootirreadors that the people living in tho northwestern states are discouraged at tho long and severe winters they have to struggle through, and aro looking for,nioro favorable lpeatlons.

"When n channel for tho flow of population Is opened, the Inliux becomes con tinuous and a "boom" is tho result. Tho ctlect on prices and the general stimulus imparted totheeonnnunlty that receives this lullow, cannot bo conceived by those who have not diligently studied this migratory movement. A train load of strangers arriving in town every day, illling tlie hotelsand restaurant tables, iirst e.citos wonderment, and then stirstip tho energies of tho people. Tho first development is tlie blossoming out of real estate ofllces in every available spot, and an activity in the livery stables hitching up rigs to carry out thoxe strangers to lands that aro for sale. Property holdersaro quick to per ceivo their opportunity, and pilot aro marked up. More arrival every day increase tlie competition, and speculators soeing tho market ex tending before their eyes, nwko liberal piirchabes and then become sellers in turn, reserving to tliem-i-elves a liberal margin. Very boon tho townsito. becomes too nariow for exploitation, and additions are made in all directions. Blocks of land, live, ton or twenty acres in extent, are surveyed and platted, uud In an incredibly short time, nourishing corn Holds aro laid ofi'in streets and tho trowel of the mason Is busily at work. While Improvement keeps pace with in vestment tho movement Is salutary and progress unmistakable. But speculation Is apt to run to excess; and when the country is raided In u circuit of six or seven miles to fur nish city lots, ami business locations change hands at so many hundred dollars a foot, then It is time to stop, Tlie boom Is certain to collate, mid the last man will got loft. But tnu farm and fruit lands that surround this city are unatt'ectod with tho boom afllatiiH, and aro attractive to tho hometookor be- ruuuu of tlielrliitriiii.lt' value, leaving out of the account their future IKNwlbllltioM. It luut been demon strated time und again, In tliU country and In Kurope, tliut a farm of live or ten wren, within handy reach of u city, ylelria u more prontable return Mian one of a many hundred nan. mm eligibly aituate and devoted to grain raining. Hmall fruits are Immensely profit able; poultry raising, where science and experience guide tho industry would allbrd a good living; market gardening, wliero tho soil is of tlie best oualitv. vlolds a good return; and other spec ialties could be named which tho location and natural con ditions point out as desirable. The price of good land, within 40 min utes drive of tho city, Is now set at an average of $30 an acre. Ten acres would cost ?300. A diligent man who mottles on such a parcel, and devotes live years' labor to bringing out Its resources, would derive a good living from Its yield, and would have a homestead for Ids fu ture years that would place him in comfortable circumstances. Land hunger is of n nature with money hunger ; it grows from the food It feeds upon. A well tilled garden piece contigioiw to a city is desirable, because there is a market for everything raised, and tho own er enjoys tho advangesof an urban life, with tho freedom and uncon straint of the country. With tho rich and unsurpassed Willamette valley stretching around us, oil'er ing homes for thousands of families, there is room for indefinite expan sion, and every agency that calls public attention to this opportunity may be set down as a benefactor to the race. IKsSKi: AIM'I.KttATK. Tho deatli of . lessee Applegate will bo mourned throughout Oregon and ity nil to whom tho departed pioneer was known.

Ills Illnos was brief, his death sudden. He had passed tho evening in pleasant humor with Ids sou and family, and retired at tlie accustomed hour. In a few minutes his son heard him breathing heavily. Ho was suffer ing pain in the stomach.. Death quickly followed. lie was 7h years of age a native of Kentucky, from which state he emigrated in youth to Missouri, there married, and In 184,'t came to Oregon.

He was the author of tho draft of the plan for the Provis ional (Joverninent of tho Territory submitted to Congiews, which ex torted from Senator Benton of Mis souri earnest and noble praise, for tlie statesmanship it revealed, the simple majesty of its design, and it pure and polished did Ion. That mid his subsequent writings and letters Avon for him tlie distiugulsliment of "Tho Addison of Oregon." He was of sturdy nature.lierolo soul, gener ous, magnanimous, and of lullexlble Integrity, unyielding will. For many years, his home at Yoncalla was noted as a hospitable report for all )vho Journeyed, ami among his oc casional guests were tho muit dis tinguished men of tho Territory. It was tlie plain homo of hearty wel come and good cheer, with Its alllu euco of Intellectual charm of tho well cultured host in standard liter ature and leading public allhiru. Ho hold many positions of public trust, in the Interest of his fellow cltizons and tho Tenltory, but he never courted public honors or high ofllclal station. In politics he was an Old Line Whig, and sulHoquont ly aillllated with tho republican par ty. He was a pure ami uiiftclllsh patriot, devoted to the Union.
