Among a lot of old letters recently secured from Mrs. Harriet K. McArthur, a daughter of the late James W. N'esmith, a pioneer of 1S:;, and I 'nlted States Senator from March i. 1&C1. to March 4. 1MJ7, I found the following, which I am sure will be Interesting reading to many persons in Oregon City: "Oregon City, Dec. 1, 1853. "Dear Sir: "In reply to your letter of the noth October, and also to an extract con tained In it. received by you from Washington City, asking Information relative your treatment of the early Immigrants to Oregon, etc., etc., I fan with much pleasure state that on the arrival of the first party for the set tlement of the Wallamet valley In the fall 1 181!!, that your treatment then, and at all times subsequent, has been that of undeviatlng kindness and Christian-like humanity. The Immi grants were met at the Cascade Falls, In the mountains, with boats and pro visions, by your orders, with Instruc tions, as I understood it, to furnish all, whether with or without money, with provisions, and, If practicable, with passa and you also continued to' furnish provisions to many of them until they were able to raise a crop. Seed wheat, oats and potatoes, and In many Instances, stock of various kinds, was furnished, with the under standing that they should be returned when new ones were raised. I was myself, the recipient of some, If not all, of these favors; and I have not a doubt but that the friendship mani fested by you contributing largely towards creating the friendly feeling of the natives with the American cit izens who were then strangers to them.' And I will recollect your promptness in furnishing me with sev eral kegs of powder, and lead, to de fend our infant settlements with when ve supposed the Indians were med itating an attack upon the Tualatin Plains settlement, in the spring of ISM, and your assistance In dispers ing the Indians, who, we thought, were menacing us.

OR ni SAWYER AND HIS "SHUN." Publicity Secretary Writei Wittily of Sidewalk Expectoration. OREGON CITY, Or., April 7.-(Editor Enterprise.) The writer has ob served that Oregon city Is no more exempt than other places from the nuisance of expectorating In public places, on bridges and on sldcwulks, although there is a state law against the practice. I presume you have n city ordinance also prohibiting such action. Anyway, ihe law is apparent ly "more honored In the breach than the observance." There are the ever present reason-, of common decency, cleanliness and the good health of the community why everyone should not commit such an act, and none what ever why one should. It Is probably due more to thoughtlessness than per verseness or malicious Intent. If It becomes necessary to expectorate, the gutter Is the proper place to which to go. You may judge how this has af fected me by the following: After due deliberation, Full meditation, Some perturb:'! Ion And real coeslernntlon, I make application To your publication To print this communication. ,So much expectoration Gives one inclination To proiiomiie ,,.(ip damnation, Which should merit approbation. There's some consolation To declare condemnation Of so vile ,in occupation. If not gratification. All polite education Counsels fun t.i.rogallon Of such abomination. That administration Would earn canonization That would cause a full cessn (Hon Of ho much "sprteratlon." With much deprecation , Of such degi i llation, The decent population Gives Its denunciation. Since we've proper legislation There should he no toleration Of such flagrant violation And such laweSH desecration On the sidewalks of the nation, Please forgive this dissertation (With so much reiteration) But give consideration for our general preservation. With a lit tlit trepidation (Though with full justification) I extend my .supplication. Here make K termination Of this wordy peroration. ' HAS. E. SAWYER.
