Given under my hand ut Portland, the 15th day of Oct., A. D. 1S53. G. L. Cl'KUY. II y Iho Governor: B. F. HARDING. ' Secretary of Oregon. Ventral Order. No. 3. , HEAD QUARTERS, Adjutant General's Owicx, Portland, 0.,T. October IS, 1855. By proclamation of the Governor, this day mode, two Battalions of mounted voluutecra have beeu Culled for from Southern und Middle Oregon, for the purpoeo of suppressing Iudiuu hostilities in those sections of our couutry. And in view of the prob uble concert of action among the tribes upon both our northern and southern burden, it la iudispens ubly necessary that a free communication should be kept open between the Rogue river and Willam ette vullcjs. The officer) who uiay be chosen to the command of thus Battalions, as soon as they are mustered into Ibo field, will therefore employ their respective commands iu protecting the settlements iu those sections from which they have been raised, uud at the same time will keep open the lino of commuui , caliou between the Umpqua and Rogue river val " leys. Their movements for those objects must necessarily bo left very much lo their own discre tion. For the purpose of effectually ctinstisiHg those . silVegos who have perpelratcd the mrreiles outrag es iu their midst, they will treat all Indians as cn ' omies who do not show unmittakable eigne of . Jricndthip, and deal Kith them accordingly. And they will also bear in mind that, so far as ' I' practicable, a concert of action will be maintain ed with Iho United Slates forcca that may be en gaged in that section of the Territory. No chango iu Iho plan of operations for carrying on a vigorous war against the Indians at the north will bo made iu consequence of the call for Bultal ions from the south. By order of the Governor. E. M. Uarmjm, Adjutant General. For the Argtii. eiuneratee la Jacksoa, County. Israel S. Doihl, G. VV. P. of the Grand Division of the Sons of Tcmperauce of California, has just made us a hasty visit, and organized two Divis ions .of the S. of T. One at Jacksonville, num bering over fifty charter members, and ono oh Bear creek Phoenix Mills Division numbering thirty;twd male and ten female members. Mr. Delhi had urgent solicitations to organize other Divisions in the county, but his previous en gagements precluded tlio possibility of his doing so at this time. lie intends, however, makiny a tour of Oregon in a short time, iuoluding Hie Wallam ette valley, and whore we hope he will be as hear tily welcomed, and as eminently successful as he ' lias been here. California, which lias always been considered, even by Oregonians, as the hot bouso of drunken ness and licentiousness, is certainly taking the lead in Reform on the Pacific Coast, as the election just lust fully illustrates having no doubt voted favor able to Prohibition, and elected eeventy member! to tlio legislature pledged to the support of a Pro ' bibitory Liquor Law. Will Oregon, with her intelligence and morality and seniority, sit down supinely and let California cafryoff the palm of praise by passing the first Prohibitory Law on this coast ? ,We -have started the "TmnaANCt Ball" in motion here iu Jackson county, and we intend keepingjt in moiien until it rolls over and demol ishes every rum shop and doggery in the county. The friends of Tempcrande here compose tbo in '.telligence and wealth of the commiiuity, and will therefcro wield a mighty influence. The fact is, the people" of this county are beginning lo see that the heavy and onerous tax that hangs like an in cubns upon them, weighing dowa tier energies and esourocs, and for which their firms and property dud time are mortgaged, is caused mainly by the rum traffic. .. .Wilfnot the citizens of the Willamette, and oth er pertioua of Oregon, respond to those of Rogue river ia this movement, an? roll down upon the Oregon Legislature next Winter such a mighty avalanch of petitions as to utterly overwhelm them, and force them cither to acknowledge themselves ."old fogies," or coine out in favor of PROHIBITION. Edei, Jackson eo., Sep, S3, Uraakboauen. Lacrkoli vallkt, Oct. 0, 1855. Mr. Adam i Diua8ii Tie a well known fact that the grasshoppers are Increasing In this valley with a fearful rapidity, and that in Umpqua they have this season destroyed a larje amouut of small grain, besides (he injury done to young or- chardr Au evil so extensive lo Ilia farming community should bu looked after. Hence Mr. J. B. Doll and myself have beeu making some little research "us regards their generation. Where the first grass hopper sprung from we don't protend In know, but their method of propagation we belirvo lo be as follows I In May and June they first begin lo lay their eggs on Ilia young leaves of the ouk trees and bushes. This may seem ridiculous to some, but let every oue examine for himself. If you will gather si. ouk ball thai grows on the leaf, and burst the outside shell, you will find a small bull in side, in which, if you will open carefully, you can catch a grasshopper in the embryo stale. Now Iho only way lo kill theni, that I can see, Is lo burn off our hills and valleys while the grate and leaves are dry. Very respectfully, yours, W. W. BOONE. Friend Itoonu'g theory of grasshopper "generation" tuny bo (mid probably in) cor rect. Hut wc think lie must put his wits to work to devise) soma difllrutit plan to rid I ho country of them, fiom "burning olTour hills and vnlh-ys." If it wero possiblu to fire the whole country nt nil, it could only be done during sotno of tlio dry fall mouths. At this time the leaves containing llie eggs ore yot on the trees, nnd remain there till af ter the weather has become loo dump to ad mit of firing. We nro inclined to thiuk tbat gntssliop pcr, like squirrels, mice, nnd loctifts, are temporary periodical scourges, which sweep over given districts committing fearful rav ages, nnd finally disappear, nobody knows how. Whence ihcy came and whither thev i, no man knowcth. The fact that they have swept tho whole country south this year, is no certain sign that they will do so next. Some throe years since tho mice swept some portions of tho country, de stroying nil the grass and vast quantities of grain. It was feared by many that the next season would witness fearful accessions to their army. But 'in accordance with the general laws governing such scourges, in stead of multiplying they almost entirely disappeared during the following winter. If the grasshoppers Jo come down on us next summer, we know of uo way to help ourselves, but must make up our minds to "grin nnd bear it." If some lucky discov erer will hit upon a feasible plan for destroy. ing them, we shall bo glad to publish his discovery. Such a discovery would en courage us to hopo that some gcuius might yet fall upon a plan to exterminate the fleas that now Uneaten to take tho country. We recollect of a Yankee peddler who sold a "flea powder" to a country dame, who was so rejoiced at being ablo to purchase the means that would, according to the Yan kee's reooiutnendation, "prove fatal," that she forgot to inquire of the peddler for his "directions for using." The peddler, upon being called back and interrogated, lold her to "first catch the flea, turn it upon its back, and then ticklo its belly until it opened its mouth to laugh, when a little of the pow der should be dropped in, nnd tho flea would immediately expire with great ago ny." In warring with grasshoppers nnd mice, we hope wo shall be able to kill moro than one at a lime. We can not say that we have much faith in the plan proposed, of burning off the leaves in tlio full. Iu fact we cannot see that tho thing would bo possible. Caring llacon. We have been requested by several gentlemen to publish a receipt for curing bacon. Tho follow ing is the method which we have found to bo the best wo have ever seen tried : Pabk your meat upon a platform of boards, care fully covering each piece with salt well rubbed on. Fine salt is tho best, and cheapest, as It strikos into the meat soonest, and there is less Waste, than of coarse salti , Examine your bleat in two or three days from the time of first salting down, and if there are any places where the salt is all taken in overhaul the pile immediately, Carefully covering the whole with salt, rubbing it on as before. The meat should be overhauled In this Way at least twice af ter the first salting before it is hung up. Let it lie in suit as many days as the largest piece, weighs pounds. The meat should be closely watched, and kept covered with salt all tho time. Eight pounds of fine salt will preserve one hundred pounds of bacon. At tho second salting, if two ounces of saltpeter are put on to the hundred, It will take but little more salt. After your meat is salted, hang it up in a smoke house well ventilated and keep a constant smoke in it for three weeks. Core should betaken not to make a firo sufficient to heat the meat. Meat salted upon a platform, is all the time drying, during the process of salting, the blood and juico dripping oil', instead of standing on the meat as when salted in barrels. Bacon properly treated may be cured this way so as to keep sweet for years. W Wheat is looking up s'nee the last advices from California. It ia now lively at from ninety cents to one dollar. Our friends will be glad to learn tbut our subscription list is all the time rising, end, what is better, quite a number of our sub scribers are paying in advance. There fa still room, however, for more to send on your names. In these exciting times that man who lives without a nevpapet ought to be set dowa as a mere cipher in creation a real, verita ble "nobody." Latest from the South. After we bad struck oft" our proof sheet James O'Nxii.l, Esq., called lipou us and gave us the following news i On lust Wcdiiesduy night, an express reached Corvullis fruni Jucksonville, giving information Ihut Mr. Waggoner and Miss Pellet wero not killed as supposed, having left to attend a tempcruneo lec ture about four hour before the I ml iu ns reached Waggoner's bouse. Tho miners in lloguo river had turned out and killed 100 Indians, and wero piling them up ten lu a pile. A parly of It) men had gone out from Jucksonville and surprised and killed a party of 30 Indians whilst they wero at breakfast, many of whom were women and child ren. Mr. Lupton, member of tlio assembly elect from Jackson, was the only while man killed. The miners say they can do up the work without the uiel of (he soldiers. The word is "an exter mination of the Indian race, and death to officers or Indian agents who come out to make U'eaties," also, ."regulurs out of the way, and let us at the Indians." Mr. O'Xcill, informs us that the report about tho Iudiaus on Suntiuin is all a hoax. Tho companies from Linn and Benton counties were ready to start for the North when Mr. O'Xcill loft Corvullis.

OCT The following extract is from a let ter sent to us from Forest Grove, Washing ton county, and speaks encouragingly of the prospects of the University at that place : "Our School is In a more flourishing condition thau ever before, The Agricultural Fail for our couuty came off at this place on the 4th; although it was not what it might have been, yet it was not a fuiluro, and has no doubt been the means of wa king up our fanners to iho importance of such or ganizations. Next year we will have something worth looking at. Then we will invite you to puy us a visit. Our old friend Dryer was with us on the recent occasion, and gave us some good plain talk, of practical utility." Iluslaesa Increases.

Acquisition of CtJBA.The Paris cor respondent of the N.Y. Times assorts that Mr. Dodge, tho American Minister at Mad rid, has been "making some propositions, or perhaps some indications to indiscreet persons, upon the convenience of Spain's ceding Cuba to us peaceably for a large sum; and it appears that the susceptibility of the Spaniards has again taken the alarm, and the press is full of new protests repelling every proposition." OTMrs. Partington says tho only way lo prevent steamboat explosions is, to make the engineers "bile their Water on ahoro.'1 In her opinion, all the bustin' is by "cook ing the steam" on board.
