"Death Utct n thining mark."
Charles Fielding Cooke, a lovely boy of two

a visit to hia grandfuther, in company with his
mother, that "fearful diren.'o tho croup mado him

at tho residence of Irs griimlpui-i ills, mar Oregon
City, O. T., on the 3d hist.
This promising boy was tho hope of hia parents,
C. W. and R. E. Couko, of Slnuisluus county.
The child' father Hon. C. W. Couko, of the As
sembly, eume to Hun Franciaeo to meet hia wife
and child. Wo rctnon.ber well tho nnticipatcd
happiness of that meeting. Wu could sympathize
with our friend in hia hop.', for we are a parent.
We remember nlus too well the ngouized spirit of
that friend, when llio fond wife told him they
were ciiii.di.ks. It wua our privilege to utter a

Having spoken a word to clergymen- ami
church iiii-iiibor, our next iK-ul will bo to
jiolitiointis tliemsi'lvos. Ge'iiiluiniin,youaic
pursuing u most suiciiLil course with refcr
otieo to your own intcrcata. Tito clergy, be
they what they may, have nn influence and
nlways will have, which is worth counting.
You say they tiro men of small minds,
' 'weak brethren." Hero is n banter. We
-will chooso fifteen clergymen from the
clerical profession in Oregon, nnd challenge
jou to produce from nil the civilians of this
Territory tho samo number, who shall bo
their equal in talent, learning, nnd elo
quence. AVo doubt much if you can do it.
xnd taking the profession as a whole, they
nre largo men-giants along side tho pigmy
editors and lilliptttian politicians who are
accustomed to hold them in such low repute.
The clergy have nothing tounr com your
misguided and injudicious Assaults.
IDut this ai ticlo was 'commenced for the
purposo of culling your attention to a view
of ministerial character which seems never
jto Jiave entered your minds. The real
ecret.of ruinisterud power lies not in their
intellects or e'loiponee. Sampson's strength
acorns to have been not in Lis arms or in his
body, but in hi) hair. So ministerial
strength lies just whero the mere worldling
would not look for it ; in his cause and in
tie help of hia God. Are our ministers
weak ! '-'God hath chosen tho weak things
of thirfworltl to confound tho mighty and
the foolish to confound the wise." If is
Cod's work. "It is mighty and will prevail."
"The gates of hell cannot prevail against it."
And wo would advise you not to venture a
tilt with your puny arm against the Al
mighty.' ' . ' '
AVe would suggest to every man who ha
any aspirations after political preferment of
an enduring character not to follow cltrgy
fcattag leaders. In doing so there is a bare
possibility of your succeeding a y eur or two,
but your fin.tl and perpetual political death,
will come oq you very soon. Tho clergy
have expertencedjjust such assaults iu di
verse times nnd places before, but they are
now more .strongly entrenched in their
tuoral control of the world than ever In-low.
And . though corrupt editors, and ofiice-
seekera, may aspero their character yet llio
religious good scuta of the mas of tho com
nullity will ere long bo aroused for the do
f.no of tho right, nnd your puny power
will bo crushed.
Tho day of Rum power nro rapidly
iiiing nway, and tho potency of tho b"ttl
ut) election day w ill quickly coiuo to an end.
If you court corruption, you will find it

Wo learn that tho Emperor of Dntzil hn
nol Absolutely nml unconditionally rf fused
to treat for the opening of tho Amazon river,
to the commerce of tho United States. Ho
profeases grent feitrof our people, nnd iv in
terror list if wo como to seo him, wo may
"annex" him right off. This really eems
silly, yet it is true. (lis Brazilian majeity
evidently has a high opinion of American
enterprise ; but ho may rest well assured
that wo will not havo "extended tho area oi
freedom" half-way down tho South Ameri
can continent during his life-time, let hint
live to ever so good nn old age. It will
tako at least that timo to digest Cuba nnd
Mexico ; nnd after wo havo disposed of
them, wo shall hnvo Central America, New
Grenada, Eiittii'lor, Venezuela, und all the
islands ndjacent thereto, to attend to if
tho earthquakes will givo us ncliaucoto
"settle" before we reach the Amazon.
Tho Emperor, however, intends to pro
pare himself for a vigorous defense, if we
bhottlJ nnticipnto our timo. Well satisflud
that ultimately ho must let other nations go
up tho Amazon to trado with tho countries
which furnish it with water, ho is preparing
military stations nt the river's month , where
our vessels aro to bo permitted lo land and
recoivo necessary supplies. When theso
tire completed and so arranged as to be ca
pable (if def:l)so against nssattlt, nnd suffi
cient to prevent communication between the
dreaded Yankees aud tho interior from that
quarter, Ilis .Majesty promises to yield his
prejudices against our passing his door on
our way to lVtu, and tho other Republics
on tho head waters of tho great river.
Whether this promiso is honest on his part,
or n mere temporising expedient, remains to
be seen. JV. Y. Times,

'I'ha Wilmington (Delaware) Statesman
publishes the following. It will be ro mcn
bcrcd that the Prohibitory Liquor bill pass
ed both branchos of tho Delawaro Legisla
ture :
' The most convincing argument iu favor
of Prohibition that wo hnvo over heard, is
said to have been made to a member in the
State Senatoof Delawaro, during tho pend
ing of the Prohibitory bill beforo that body.
A man of notoriously intemperate habits,
sail to tho lion. Member (who it was
thought held tho life or death of that bill at
his will,) "Suppose, Mr. , a vessel was
out in tho bay in a sinking condition, with n
huge number of persons on board, without
boats or nuy other means of escape, nnd you
had tho only boat and theoHy means of es
cape, and without your assistance they must
perish, and you could save them without
endangeriug your own life, would you do it?'
"Certainly, I would. I should bo inhu
man to do otherwise 1 "
"Well," said he, "I, and thero nro hun
dreds of others like me, that havo become
suuh creatures of habit, that wo havo not tho
heart to try to save ourselves you can by
your voto in the Senato help. us. Will you
doit!"
This appeal was said to be more convinc
ing than a dozen such lectures would have
been from Tetnperanco men aud the hon
orable gentleman's mind was moro firmly
fixed in favor of the bill than it had ever
been before.
Tho gentleman did vpto for tho bill, and
t has become a law. In a few mouths that
poor inebriate, with hundreds of others,
their wives uud children, will have the
shield of law in their protection.
" May God protect the right."
Singular Death.
Mr. Wm. A"Whittakcr, of Cincinnati,
whilst at breakfast on 13th inst., eating a
niece of bread, swallowed a small hard sub-
ti-).Uh Irvlrrml nenr the stomach.
0IIW3, T.l. ' O .
Soon after it created so much pain that he
took an emetic, and on tho next day
threw tho substance up. " It proved to bo a
pieco of shingle nail, about half an iuch
loner, which had been broken, nnd was sharp
and ragged at both ends. ' It appeared to
havo been part of a nail used in securing the
hoops of a flour barrel, which liad got into
tho flour, and thence into the bread. . Alter
the nail came up Mr. W. was easy for two
or three days, when inflammation set in,
causing his death on Thursday last.
