Wo think Hint thi long talked nf enterprise ia tliu initial point of nil iulilio improvements in the Willamette valley, Nut that nil public improvements huuld ctiniinnnd (ir outer nt at Oregon City, but that thiscfiiml should he enn'truuted first, and that It should be con structed nt the curliest possible perio I. The reason is obvious. This is a menxnru that will benefit the whole valley at a single stroke. It will open Ihe river from one end to the other, and accommodate both sides of the river equally. As far as Ihe Willamette valley is concern! d, it cannot lie suid that the ciintil will be, can possibly be, local in its benefits, be cause it removes at one lroke the only barrier to the free navigation nf the river which trav erses the valley from one end lo the other. Until sides uf the river have equal and unob structed access to it its use, and consequently to tbe use of the cuntil. The farmers nf Lane nud Ilenlon aro equally interested witli the farmers of Yamhill and upper Clackamas in low freight charges ; and they too equally with the shippers at Corvallis and Ilurrisburg or liiitteville and Dayton, will bo benefitted hr tlie early completion nf tliu canal.. If the farmers and shippers nf the valley take hold of Ihe mutter in earnest they can build and own tlie canal, and then they can say at what rates their produce shall go out of the river, and what Uriir miiy be iinposod on their merchan dise as it conies iu. Will Ihe investment pay Nothing will likely pay better. Tlie people nf this valley now pay enormously liigb for the trampnrta. lion uf their produce and merchandise. 1 hey pay for the portage at Oregon cily alone, the exorbitant price of $1,25 per ton ; ami ou 30, 000 Ions, nhich will doubtless pass uround the Fulls (his year, the people pay over $:)0.000 I lie sum nlone will pay ten per cent, per year on $;00,0()0. Then (here Is $2 per ton charged on every thing between Oregon City and Portland, which makes fiil) 000 more. These (wn charges we are told can both be saved hv constructing: the catiul, or I i oilier words, llto (oil fur pussiug through the ciiuul. would take tliu place of these two items so that if the canal company churged go ids and produce as the railroad and steamboat now do, it wuuld.reueivu not less than $U7,0I)0 pur annum tolls and that would muke thirty two per cent, nil a cost of $:)00,000 and the aver age estimate of cust urn nearer $'200,0f)0 than the hrst tunned sum. Then if the farmers would subscribe tho capital and build the canal with their surplus means, the whole cost uf it would lie returned tu them iu cash hy its earn tugs in three years ; and this is three limes the amount (hey can maku hr loaning their money at into per cent, per month. Hut they need not charge present prices from Cancimili to Portland. Thu charge may be reduced one third and still gel as much interest on their money as Ihe law allows in Oregon. Now It must he apparent to overy one, that if the cnnal will pay the estimated income on the present carrying trade, that the income of Ihe canal would he constantly increasing with the development of thu counts)'. New sources nf income will nn.-e year after year which we cannot now foresee. It ia evident to overy one that the Slate is rapidly filling up with farmers from (lie border Slates uf thu South and West; while the increase of bonn and muscle, as well as brains, "lo Ihe manor born," is now begin ning In muke lis impress on thu growth ol ocr unlile young Stnlo. This enterprise can no lunger hua doubtful one. It must gu ahead. It is eminently practicable and legitimate not forced uud speculative. It ia demanded nut ns a speculation fur tlie few, nor yet as a "good thing" lo spend money on; but as a necessity lo Ihe people uf the Willamette valley. Can the money be raised Iu build it ? Any me that ill take the trouble lo examine iulo the resources of this valley cannot be long iu doubt ou this point. A valley nhich contains over three million acres uf rich agricultural land, tu say nothing of ils "slimes which are iron, nud out of whose hills come forth gold, silver and copper," which conluius into fourth as much of fur heller farming hind tliu it there is Iu nil the New England Stales, nhich .con tain thriving towns uud cities, and a popula tion of tint less than 70.000 persons, all pros pering uud industrious if such a valley i an nul raise tliu menu lo construct a little short canal, costing nliout S'.'OII.OIH), to let ils im mense and lupidly Increasing produce out Iu Ihe great world of cunme.cu without let ur hindrance, wo are greatly mistaken. It can be dune the money can he ruieid in die vol ley (u build this canal, and Ibis is the very place it ought Iu be ruised. The canal ought tn be owned and conlrullcd by the fanners. Not a single share uf its slin k should lie per mitted to go lo California or elsewhere. The wuik oau be easily uccumpliidied here. It is not money I hut is needed half so much as Ihe will and determination lo taku hold nud help it ihroiigh. The farmers uf t e valley can raise the menus out uf the ground this ensuing season, by Just pulling in a fi-w more acres ul wheat ami oats. There is no doubt but Hint they can turn in their wool, wheat, oats or bti- eou iu payment uf their slock in the canal, and if every farmer n ill luke Ibis view of the mat tfr. he mar find himself next fall the owner uf from uno hundred to one thousand dollars canal slock- the cnnal finished, and his slock at a premium ; and he will not have missed Ihe lime or labor thai was devoted Iu raising tbe prodoce which paid fur his stuck. TI.e canal can easily lie paid fur out uf Ihe neit crop, Iu addition to raising as much as would be raised, without taking ihe canal iulo the account.

The Portland correspondent of the Sacra mento Union, writing under date of Jan. .')d, contain tliu following in reference to our Hep. resontativo in Congress who has lately been appointed Chief Justice of Idaho Territory : Wo received yesterday word by telegraph, as yuu probably have been advised, tlmt John H. M'Hrnlu of Oregon had been appointed Chief Justice for Mali) Territory. M'ltride is now winding up hi first term in Congress, where he seems to have made his murk as un indefatigable worker. Not blessed Willi a great chare of what the world calls high talent, lint accomplishing quilu as much fur thejitate at large as any uf bis predeceesurc have dune. In his political views he if decidedly radical, hut was placed iu Congress by the aid uf the Dotiglu Democratic wing of the Union party, under a suspicion nn the part of qnite a large number of his former associates that his nomi nation was parcel nf a plan by which they se cured tu tho succession a man of their own choice for Uni'ed Stales Senator to fill the un expired term of E. D. Baker. Whatever tliey may have, expected of him iu his oflicial career, ho has been a faithful supporter and friend of tlie Administration, and teems tn have had moro influence in the bestowal of Government putrunage than any one else. His father was sent In the Sandwich Islands, which was a good appointment, atid now John himself it made a Chief Justice. Idaho has secured in his per son a very able political worker, who will do nil any man can to restore harmony tn thu Union ranks, and tlie bench will be filled by a lawyer that may not rank among the first, but com mands respect for industry nnd ability. On the Mint question M'Hrice lost some friends by nut securing the location at Portland, and might have been again returned tu Congress but for perhaps unfounded suspicious n to some matters connected with his career. Your cor respondent not bring particularly partial will do liini tlie justice to say that ho deserved to have been renominated in preference lo being succeeded by a gentleman nlin is undoubtedly a clever mini, but had nut earned that consid eration previous tu the campaign he effectively made to wiu it. , SALEM. This is the pret iesl place I have yet seen in the Slate, and if I rl Id ever settle down iu a respectable citizen, here would I make my home. The streets are wide, mill as dry as could be expected lifter three weeks coulinnal ruin. The worst mudho'e is n pavement com pared to the best spot to be found iu llie-lieeti nf Portland. The ninin street is lined with block of brick buildings, occupied ns stores und public ofliocs, and a beautiful little theiiter. in whit Ii a company uf amateurs give tlieiitri cul entertainments once or twice a week, which are said to be very neil got up. As Ihe people hut summer elected tu have the Capital per manently located here, tbev will proceed next summer lo erect the proper building for the .State nlhucrs ami also a State prison. The so ciety here is excellent, the people being pn sesied of morn lhan ordinal)' intelligence nnd refinement. Although apparently n very quiet city, there is a large amount of hnsiiicrs done, it being Ihe shipping port of a very large sec tion of country, winch is thickly settled by farmers, iiiiinufiiotnrers uf staves ami other ar-1 tides, nnd stock rnbicr. Some of the finest horses I have seen on tho coast are rtti ed in this vicinity, fill y equal in every respect lo the best emigrant stock, and having the advantage uf never having b"en " nlkalied." Only mm Ihiug is lacking lo make Salem a desirable place for Ihe traveler tu sojourn a month or mure, and that is a decent hotel. There aro two t lint are dignified by that title, lint they do not deserve it, being old two story wooden buildings, entirely unsuitable tn the purpose fur nhich Ibey are used. I speak uf the build ings only, as they are both as well kept as is possible, the food is good nnd abundant, and the landlords kind nnd obliging, hut tho rooms are not such ns a visitor to the beautiful city of Snlem has a right to expect.
