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.

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.

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."

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.

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."

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."
