Joaquin Miller says ho "talked with an old Oregoniau, within the past thirty years, who saw Mount St. Helens in active eruption in 1S42. Tills oltl man was at Tho Dalles, then a Hudson's Day post, at tho time, and said that two Inches of ashes fell there. And I read on good authority that it is n matter of record that an Indian, who had been traveling on the spur of tho mountain at thethne of tho eruption, was treated by an English surgeon at ono of tlte llrltlsh posts from in juries to ids feet from hot lnva, that well nigh proved fatal. Joseph Meek, our first delegate to congress from Oregon, told ine, when a boy, that he had himself seen trees that were badly burned by flowing lava, but still .standing. "Still there may be some room for doubt and speculation in all this; but there Is no room for doubt about tho lava and tho tufa and the pumice-stone which you encounter at the very outset when you attempt to ascend any of these snow peaks, either In Washington or Oregon. Ami indeed, tho very graves on tho banks of tho great river hero are often dug in ashes anil lava, Jut as on the mountain sides beyond the City of Mexico." Allmiiy I'lirasrniilis. AuiANV, Aug. 127.
