During hi) ullicial term Mr. M'Mride ha
won an enviable reputation for practical ability
nud earnest industry in attending to the in 01
esta of hi) cnustiluenls. A young member
from a ilistuut frontier Statu, his influence with
the House nud with the Department has been
far greuter than many older and more widely
known members. He returns to this const as

nieioleicd that the same steamer waa seined
at San Francisco about a year ago for
smuggling opium. It was then shown by lesti
inoiiy thai Captain Duma was entirely inno
cent, hut the first and second mates were both
found guilty. The duties on opium me very
high and a small package will contain a Very
laigu value. The temptation tn violate the
law is iherelore very great.

Wo lenrn from the Ortgnninn I lint a cor
poration with thu ubuvo title bus been formed
in Porlhiud with a nominal capital nf i'dluMJfjO,
fur the purpose of developing thu lied of iron
nro which has tang been known tn exist in the
Chehalein Mountains. Thu ledgn extends
from the cast side ol the Willamette river, he
tow Milwaukie, in a soiith-wcsterlv direction,
acro.'S the river, through Clackamas county
intn Yamhill. It ha been traced for ai'.istaucc
of more than thirty miles, and wu have no
dnnbt contains mure latent wealth than Owyhee
and Sautiam combined. The ground secured
by the corporation alluded to, is situated at ihe
month of Sucker Creek (yclept Oswego), mid
for its convenience tn navigatii ii 1a probably
unsurpassed by any part nf the lend or vein.
The ore is auid to assay from ,0(1 to(j" per cent,
of pure iron. It ia claimed that tho vein in
creases in richness aa it extend toward the
southwest, but ni it also recede) front facilities
fur transportation, the portion nt Ihu month of
Sucker Creek will probably be more valuable
than that lurthcr in the interior, even if of less
richness.
The capital of llio new corporation is nom
inally JWIO.OOO, or which $:K!.VKI0 has 1 11
taken hy a few capitalists of l'ortluud in tlieir
own In-half, und for some weal. liy parlies in
New Yolk.
This i the only deposit of iron ore yet dis
covered upon Ihe I'ucifb cnast, and as it is of
0i..-,u.i. 1 . ....ii; -.'it-iicu, iiiuiiil near unlim
ited supplies of timber for fuel nud building
purposes, und convenient lo navigation con
necting it with all tho settled portion of Ore
gon and California, it cannot fail to he a mine
of wealth tu the country, na well as lo the in
dividuals whu own it.
The Orrfonian repeats nn absurd stury,
which we have beard before, about Gen. Mo
Carter having in early days found a black
smith in tile woods who shod his horse with
iron smelted in a common forge. It is line, we
believe, (hat small bar of iron were made in
this wiiy some years ago, but not, wu think, in
amount sufficient for extensive Dsn. Suinit bar
of this iron were exhibited at Oregon City, as
long ago as IB.'C. and at Moore' store in this
city three year ngu, and were pronounced by
experts to be id superior quality nud toughness.
We hope we can chronicle before another year,
the actual operation of extensive work at Os
wego, Tim Ojhjuon City Factouv.- It i ex
pected that the machinery for the woolen fac
tory at Ihu Falls w ill urrivu about the first ol
April, and Ihe building Is now ready for its re
ception. The propi iolors expect to get lo run
ning early in June.
The building ia of brick with a substantial
alone fnun lation. It is fifty -feet wide by one
hundred mid ninety long, and two slories high,
besides the basement and atliclt. I m it 1 1 of which
are nearly lull stories. The tower in front is
four stories high. When (he nrrangeiuciita are
completed Ihe building will iiccomiuodate ten
seta of machinery, nnd require from tuu to
three hundred hands to keep it ill operation.
All the stock is not yet taken, but expenses
thus fur are all paid, and wu understand the
finances of the company ure ill a hopeful con
dition. Mr. I.. K. Pratt, lute overseer of Ihe
Willamette Woo ell Factory, ia the business
agent of the company. Ilia well known en
ergy and business qualification, and hit llior
ougli anpiaiiitutiec with the business, are a suf
ficient guarantee that the iiisiitulioii will pros

In succeed Geiiernl Alvord ill the coiiiWiauil of
the Military District of Oregon, which includes

Colonel Maury is a giaduato nf West Point,
but abandoned military life for the civil many
years ao, came to Oregon in iS'i'i (we
think), and waa Tor many yenia engaged in
melcaiilile pursuit in Jacksonville. I'poli the
outbreak of tho war he waa nppo uleil Colonel
of Ihe first regiment raised in Oregon, nud has
acted in that capacity ever siuu '. Ilo is a su
perior man, of line attainments, nud much mil
itary expeiieuce, which intimate acquaiiitunce
with Oregon men and a flairs will enable him to
use lo the advantage of the public. We are
favored ill Ihe selection of Ihe new District

Much feeling las engendered by the notion of
the board, not only in the countios where the
Company waa raised, but in the Company it
self, the metiihirsuf which were much attached
tu llii!ufIicer,cpooially Captain liigdon. Wo
fcrhoro lo n)nke any remark upon the subject
whilo ollicia) action was pending, but it is i:nw
settled and to express our regret at the result
of the iiclior, of the board.
Captain Jigdon was very nctivo and ener
getic in recruiting tho Company nud bis ac
quaintance aid popularity with tho people en
abled him to do more than probably any oilier
man could have done. We would not have
desired theiCxaiiiiniug board tn violate their
olliciul duly1 in tho matter, to favor our best
friend, and trc huvo 110 doubt that these gentle
men acted with Ihe utmost consciencimisiiess
in their decision. Hut we do not therefore feel
the lo regret at the result. Had Captain

voted himself Willi hearty energy to tho ser
vice, and wherein he might have failed lie
would have done an unwittingly. The follow
