But wu have done more tlmn this. We have maintained cor rect morals iu trndo aud the one price sys tem; we have encounigr d home manufac tures; our trndo with the Willamette Woollen Manufacturing . Company during the last year has been ubovc $3,000; our exchange in Oregon leather, boots, Ac, nearly $1,000, besides variety of trade iu other ai tichs. Pecuniarily, the enterprise has succeeded beyond tny most sanguine expectations. It has just reached a point where it can btyin to trado with some-degree of case. With our whole stock iu use it would do three times the trade mid double the profits. . The new plan of trade, not yet eulered upon, of selling lo ull ul.ke, "with small proOts and consequently greater sales to the public, making a dividend to members nt the end of the year iu proportion to their purchases, would no doubt add great ly to the j opularity of the " Union Store." Vet, the present iiiilicniions are that it must ceuse to exist. Whether this be my fault or that of some otto else; whether It arises from aVe-Iieily, ignorant selfishness in me, or a few of the members, or from inattention on the pnrt of members gener ally, or all three taken together, every ooe may exercise the American privilege of thinking for himself. Upon one thing 1 can congratulate the friends of this entur- tcrprisc, that it discontinues business, op pressing uobody with heavy losses; that it dies iu prosperity with the regrets of hun dreds of good meu and womeu nttcuding it. -. Unlike tbe usual departure of our un successful mercantile houses, it leuves no bitter curses from injured creditors aud se curities. ...... 1 If it be a shame that our property be sacrificed for half or less than half its value by a forced sale, to the injury of men who have acted tlieir part fuithlully, let that shame rest where it belongs. The active spirit in creating this trouble is very well represented in the conduct of three of our members. One, because 1 would not pay him six dollurs and fifty cents per bar rel for flour, when the Store was selliug for six, because be could not get fifteen half dollars without giving anything for them denounced the institution, and has since done all he could against it. Another be came ofiended because I would not pay him twenty dollars for lumber when the Store had no need for it when lumber could be bought for fifteen. Had I em ployed biiu as clerk in the store, or carpen ter, he no doubt would have contiuued well satisfied; my reasons for doing neither comer in tl.e south side of my warm heart. llio errors of thoso hrothers who would as soon train a dollar by reckless specula tion er a jockey horse swap, as by n just saving in trade, I will (orget as soon as possible.

Ami's: The excitement ubout the Molulla silver mines still keeps up.- I saw some of the old heads of this (Clackamas) uud Multnomub counties wending their way thither. Among the number I noticed Messrs. A. A. Durham and Walter Car man of this county, and Messrs. Mitchell and John Stephenson of Multnomub coun ty, all of whom passed through Oregon City on Monday of last week. Judge Mitchell has some experience as u smelter of lead. , He bus tested to some extent the value of the silver ore from the Santi am, though he is not fully satisfied, from his imperfect means of ascertaining it, as to what its full value is. Ho is satisfied, however, that it will pay well. Other parties hare informed me that the Satitiam silver ore has yielded 53 per cent, and a fraction over. There ore other valuable minerals existing in tbe ore, a small per cent, of platiua and gold. The conclusion to which I have come respecting tbe San tiam mines is, that if it will yield 53 per cent, of silver, it will pay to EacriGce all the rest of the minerals for the sake of the silver. The different kiuds of metals re quire different degrees of heat to smelt them, so that by any means now at com mand of tcstiug the value of these ores, all trials are subject to great loss not only of the silver itself, at tbe other more valuable metals get more or less burut up. : Messrs. Mitchell and company are endeavoring to ascertain the relative value of the Molulla mines as compared with thoso of the San tiatn. , , Observer. of years," and venerated for his moral worth as well as for bis age and public services. In the towu of Acton, Me., on a beauti ful ridge of laud, situated about a mile from Milton Mills, N.

They are quirk to In form us that, Unless their especial friends succeed 'to power; the Union of the States will bo dissolvod, the constitution will be rendered null nod void, tho bulwark of law will be broken down, and the social fabric will be swept away by the waves of auarchy and civil, war.. All this is to happen be fore the beginning of next winter, and ye therp is no special excitement upon the subject. . The politicians, it is true, ora doing their best to arousu tho masses to a. sense of impending danger; but tbe masses, with a degree of stolidity as refreshing as it, issurprising, absolutely refuse to be aroused Tho slump orators rave in vain ubout the consequent ruin of the country. , , The people qeietly pursue their evocations, Public securities adrnnco at Loiuo and abroad. Iu the great West uw Territories are springing up in the most provokingly peaceful fay. Tho nation buys and sells, cultivates tho soil, increases its army aud strengthens its navy, sends embassies lo tho fur Lust, makes and ratifies treaties of amity and commerce with nnt'ous hitherto closed to Western trade; the metropolis welcomes, at tho same point of time, the representa tives of the Emperor of Japnu, the England of the Orient, and the great ship, the crown ing triumph of; British inventors and artisans. . We, as a nation, display the greateet interest in any matter of practical moment, nnd huvo tho utmost contempt for political abstractions. To-dny the opera tions of General Garibaldi in Italy are of more importance to our people than tho struggles cf the several factions for tho Presidency ..of, tho Uuited States.

( I L'XTnAOUlJlNAItY PlIYSIOLOUICAL PlIK- souEKOit.A physiological wonder occur red n short time since, in this city, cays the Cincinnati Press, which will doubtlcvs prove as interesting to our renders as it ii hi a dy lias to physiologists and oculists. A' young nnd exceedingly interesting girl, residing on Eighth street, whose unme we suppress from motives of delicacy, and whoso oniablc disposition, elegant manners and placid beauty of soul, had endeared her to nil who know her, was, a year or two ago, compelled to discontinue her stndicfl and leave school, In consequence of a partial loss of eyesight that threatened to become totul. Shu was entirely unable to read, and, although she could see well enough to enable her to wulk about, visit her friends and entertain thrin when they ' culled upon her, threatened loss of sight gavo her much annoy anco and n roused the sympathies of all who been me acquainted with tho facts.' A number of our most skilful physicians wcro employed by tho family, nnd she was even taken to somo of our most noted oculists; but ell their learn' ning, dexterity and management proved unavail'nr. Her eyes looked healthy, were beautifully pensive iu their expression, and seemed deep as her soul was pure, but they ' were nevertheless to her almost wholly useless. Notwithstanding this rather 1 melan choly physical defect, a young man who hod long been devoted to her, offered hor his hand in marriage. Sho demurred, and through an excess of affection refjscd to Ik stow it njion the man who had long slnco won her heart, stating that she never would consent to become a burden upon the man she loved. For a long time he persisted in bis suit, nnd ul length, through bis praises and sighs, made her believe that lifu with her, ev n if she were wholly blind, were better than a paradise where she was not. A month or two ago her resolution was rescinded, end she became his wifo, and, strango an it may seem, from that duy her eyesight began to improve, and she is now able to read the finest print by gaslight, without pain ond without any apparent optical injury. The case hns caused considerable sensation among those who ure conversant with tho circumstances. Apart froiri its significance as a well ei eKtablished ocular fact, it is a practical il lustration of what has been clearly and wittily suld, "That love is blind, but Hymen is the oeulist who alone can open bis eyes." ,i The above is not the only recorded case whore tbe eyes bavc beeo opened by matri mony. . .,; Si The St. Louis Bulletin, a Doug las organ, is so enrng'd at Mr. Buchanan that it reproaches him with the all"grd fact that his lather was a tory in the Revolu tionary War, the confiscation of whose property was orderod by the Continental Congress.
