far JUtag liqjjjstfr. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1SGS. Great . Imii-ements to (oet a) Club. It being fashionable lattcr'y for editors who have become "plethoric ally" rich in the printing business, to hire subscribers to take their papers, an J not wishing to be left behind iu the march of progression, we, in turu, offer the following magnificent premiums to those who will interest themselves in ob taining subscribers to .the Register, the "largest, ablest edited, neatept printed ad most popular" weekly newspaper, of Union proclivities, published on the coast of Linn county, Oregon, viz : Single subscribers will be presented with one copy, weekly, at the low figure of three hundred cent?, in advance, to be paid in gold or silver coin. Married subscribers, for the same amount of coin, will be presented with fifty-two numbers of the paper extending over a period of twelve calendar months! Subscribers for two copies will be pre sented with a box of sardines at any of the grocery stores where they have them for sale. A very nutritious fish, and relished by those who are fond ot them. Subscribers for five copies will be al lowed time (five minutes) in which to pay the subscript price, and will re ceive a pair of leather spectacles of our own make ; an excellent article for pre miums, owing to the great cost of their manufacture. , k Subscribers for ten copies will receive a deed to a quartz lode in the Santiaiu district or in any other portion of God's moral heritage as soon as they find it. Subscribers tor twenty-five copies will receive a splendid prcure '" of himself or his nearest relative, takeu by a new pro cess, known only to our devil and his co temporaries throughout the habitable globe..

Subscribers for one thousand copies will receive a quit-claira . deed to any farm on Soap Creek or Long Tom, fenced and mortgaged. i Persons not satisfied with. .these " pre miums" are hard to' pl.-ase, and ought to be compelled to read the Lafayette Cour ier for three consecutive months, without a drop of "recT-eye" to cheer their solemn ferns'. . Fwghtened to Death by a Vis ion -A strange and surprising incident occurred a few days since, in the country some miles from Corinth, Miss., says the Caucasian, published at that place. A. Mrl Mangrum killed a young man dur ing the war, and a few days since Mr. " Mangrum was on a deer drive, and while at one of the stands he saw an ob ject approaching him which so alarmed him that he raised his gun and fired at it. The object which resembled a man covered with a sheet, continued to ad vance upon Mr. Mangrum, when he drew his pistol -and emptied all the bar rels at the ghost. None of the shots seeming to take effect, he climbed a tree to make his " escape. By i. the time he was a"shori distance up the tree the white object was standing under him with his eyes fixed -upon him, and he declared that' it was the spirit of the young .man whom , he bad killed. Mangrum was startled at the steady gaze of the eye that he had been the cause of laying cold in death, so that he fainted and fell . from the tree. His friends carried him home, the ' ghost following and standing before him constantly, the sight ot which brought; up the recollection of his guilt with, such force to bis mind that he died ,n . i. a. . i j in great, jguuj ik;i ,nu. tuicc uayt Fires. Ifcirdly an exohange on the Pacific coast received by us that does not record disasters and losses resulting from fires. On the Sound,, in Washing ton Territory y immense damage has been done ; acres' of forest have been con sumed ; fences and habitations have suc cumbed, " knocked under," aud " went in " before the " heated breath" of the fire Ling. Such a period of fir?, cover ing and darkening the heavens with dense clouds of smoke, was never before experienced. Nearer home we have .ac counts of the losses : created which are almost innumerable. From the Unionist we learn that terrible fires were raging at the head of Butte, Abiqua, Molalla, Rock aud Silver creeks. On the 15th ult., Cedar camp was entirely destroyed, and the Gerkin boys lost everything, in cluding about fifty thousand cedar shin gles. They fought the fire until they were satisfied that nothing could be saved. The men, Sam. Cornelius, and two Riggs boys,, attempted to make their escape by the Abiqua route, as that was the only practicable way. .In traveling they got lost, as it was so dark they could not tell day from night, and thus did not arrive at Silverton until the Fri day following, being four days and a half. This fire made its appearance at the lime kiln about the same time, burn ing everything, green as well as dead timber. Jacob Bales, who lives at the head of Rock creek, had his barn and all his hay and grain burned, but J suc ceeded in saving his dwelling.' II is loss was about seven hundred dollars. Mr. Cooper says that at the time he left the fire was about seven miles long, and about five or six in width. It sounded like a stotm at sea. It came within half a mile of his place. Teams have since been there for lime, and report that the fire had passed by. None of the men who were at work at that place remained. . Requisition for Arms. Several new Governors of Southern States recently made requisitions on the Secretary of War for arms under . a law passed in 179G, but the Secretary has declined to furnish until further legislation is had on the subject. The Governors, in con sequence, have united in an appeal to Congress to meet on the day to which they had adjourned to take action in the matter. Governor Warmoutii. Gov. War mouth, of Louisiana, is a young man, be ing only 26 years of age. lie is a native of Illinois, but at the breaking out of the rebellion was a resident of Missouri, where he raised a regiment and went into the war in defense of the flag and the Union. The rebels of that State will find a rough "carpet-bag" if they attempt force. ; ' ' A correspondent of, the Oregonian, writing from Salem in relation to the State penitentiary, says : Since the begin ning of the session, many of the members have visited this institution some irom curiosity, others no doubt to fiud . fault. The universal testimony, however, is that the grounds, buildings and everything else is in tip-top order; and that the Penitentiary was never before managed with anything like the system and advan tage to the State as since Major Berry assumed control. The convicts are turn ing out large number of bricks and tho institution, is constantly approaching the condition of Eelf-sustaining. Buffering. AGRICULTURAL.. Greasing Wagons. But few people are aware that they do wagons and car riages more injury by greasing too plen tifully than in any other way. A well mado wheel will endure common wear from ten to tweuty-five years, if care be taken to use the right kind and proper amount of grease; but if this matter is not attended to, they will be used up in five or six years. Lard should never be used on a wagon for it will penetrate the hut) aud work itself out aiound the tenons of the spokes, and spoil the wheel. Tal low is the best lubricator for wood axle trees, and castor-oil for irou. ; -, Just enough grease should bo applied to the spindle of a wagon to give it a light coating; this is better than more for the surplus put put on will work out at the ends, and be forced by 1 the- shoulder- bands and nut washers into the . hub around the outside of the boxes. i - To oil an iron axle tree, first wipe the spindle clean with a cloth wet with spir its of turpentine, and then apply a few drops of castor-oil near the shoulder and end. One teaspoonful is sufficient for the whole. The Ohio Farmer thinks that nine tenths of the diseases which happen to the hoofs and aukles ojr horses are occa sioned by standiugfcn the dry plank floors of the stabled Many persons seem to think, from the way they keep their horses, that the foot of the horse was never made for moisture, and that, if possible, it would be beneficial if they had cow-hide boots to put on every time, they went out. Feeding Bees. Mr. Langstroth rec ommonds as excellent bee food "a mix ture of three pounds of honey, two of brown sugar, aud one of water." After you commence feeding, continue it with out interruption until through, as it ought to be finished, after Being com menced, as soon as possible. Make holes through the center of the fullest honey combs, which ought to be in the center "of the hive, so that the bees will have winter passages to their food without be ing obliged to go over the edges of their combs. . v Curing Green Hides. A great many butchers wool dealers, etc., are purchasers of the hides of the beef in the country towns, and we ofteq get from them inquiries as to the most proper and profitable method of curing the hides and preparing it for market. A great many butchers do not use proper care in this branch, and the 'consequence is the hides will not pass city inspection, owing entire ly to tho ignorance arid carelessness of persons preparing them for market. The proper way to salt hides is to lay them out flat, flesh side up, and form a nearly square bed, say twelve by fifteen feet, folding in the edges so as to make them as nearly solid as possible. Split the ear in the cords that run up the ear in each one so as to make them lie out flat. Sp-iukle the hide with two or three shovelfuls of coarse salt, as the size may require say for a sixty to eighty pouvid hide from ten to fifteen pounds of salt. At any rate cover the hide well, as it need not be wasted; and let them lie in this from twelve to twenty days, after which take them up, shake salt well out, A new paper called the Gazette Se crete is" published in Belgium for circula tion in Paris.

To raise watermelon, without seeds, the following plan has been successfully adopted by a planter in !addo Parish, Louisiana: After the vine is about two feet long, cover thef vine at a point inter mediate between the top and the root. After it has taken root where it is cover ed, divide the vine between the old and new root, and tho result will be that the melons will be seedless, without impairing their quality. f .Tape Worm Can often be expelled by a tea made of pumpkin seeds.

A man may grow to weigh a ton Who feas-t his mind with pungeut fun; But ho who nciuna its simple sway Oft yields tojcriine an easy prey. Better a witty fool than a foolish wit. Generally Observed Tilting-skirts, water7falls, and other people's business. Chkap Good advice, lip salve and promise. Dear A prettv wife, her "love of a bonnet," good whisky and piety. The farmer is a conqueror who wins victories upon important fields. Men refine liquor, but liquor never re turns the compliment. Why is a "tilting skirt" like a slaugh ter pen? Because loan and fat calves are contained in it. Politeness is not always a sign ot wis dom, but the; want of it is always a strong symptom of folly. Conscience, be it ever so little a worm while we live, grows suddenly to a ser pent on the death-bed. Satan can never undo a man without his aid ; but a man may easily undo him-sejf-without Satan's. We do not easily discover our faults, the clearest eyes do not see the cheeks below, nor the brow above. In Demand Long credit, exemptions from taxation, false calves and gin cock tails. Not that which men do worthily, but that which they do successfully, is what history makes haste to record. . 1 It is not work that kills men, it is worry. It is not the revolution that. de stroys the machinery, but the friction. A man of the world may have enough of the world to sink hiui, but, he cau never have enough to satisfy him. Why is wet weather more pleasant than dry ? Because it is mor,e in-door-able. " i L "May your whole family be jammed into otie coffin," is an expressive Chinese oath.

We congratulate the country on the assured success of the reconstruction Policy of Congress as evidenced by the adoption iu a majority of the Sfat6 lately in rebellion, of Constitutions securing j 'tfjual, civil and political rights to all, and ne regard it as the duty of the govern- j merit to sustain these Constitutions, and prevent tho people of such States from being reniitted to a state of anarchy or military rule. 2d. ;The guarantee by Congress of equal suffrage to all loyal men in the South, was demanded by every consideration of public safety, gratitude and justice and must be maintained : while the question of suffrage in all loyal States properly be longs to those States. - 3d. We denounce all forms of repudi ation as a national crime, and honor rc quiresHhe payment of the puBc indebt edness in the utmost good faith to our creditors at home and abroad, not only according to the letter, but spirit of the laws under which it was contracted. 4th. It is due to. the labor of the na tion that taxation should be equalized aud reduced as the national faith will permit. 5th. The national debt contracted as it has-been for the perservatioc of the Union for all time to come, should be ex tended over a fair period, and it is our duty to reduce the rate of interest there on wheuever it can be houestly done. 6th. That the best . policy to diminish our burdeu of debt is to so improve our credit.4t:hat capitalists will seek to lend money at lower rates of interest than we now pay and must continue to pay so long repudiation, partial or total, open or covert; is threatened or suspected. 7th. The Govern tne"rttof the United States shoiild be administered with' the strictest economy. The corruptions which have been so shamefully nursed and, fostered by Andrew Johnson, call loudly for reform. 8th. We profoundly deplore1 ,the un timely and tragic death of Abrah"am-Liu-coln, and regret the fuccession of Andrew Johnson to the Presidential Chair, who has acted treacherously o the people who elected him and the cause he was pledg ed to support; who has usurped higli leg islative and judicial functions has refus ed to execute the laws, has used his high office to induce other officers to violate tlie laws, has employed his Executive power to render insecure the lives," prop-v erty, peace and liberty of citizens, has abused the nardoniii;? nower.has denounc- - - - r --- - - 7 Jy . i U.t. . m.

The doctrine of Great Britain and other powers that, when a man is once a subject- ho is always so, must be resisted at every hazard by the United States as a re'ie ot" feudal times not au thorized by the law of nations and at war with our national honor and independence. Naturalized citizens are entitled to be pro tected in all ther rights of citizenship as though they were native born. No citi zen of the United States or naturalized must be liable to arrest or imprisonment by any for eign power - for acts done or words spoken in this country, and if so ar rested and imprisoned, it is the duty of the Government to interfere in his behalf. 1,0th. Of all who where faithful in the trials of the war, thbre were none more faithful for special honor than the brave soldiers and seamen frho endured hardships of camp and cruize and imper iled their lives, in the service of their country. - The bounties and pensions ap propriated by law for these brave defen ders or the Union, are obligations never to be forgotton. The-widows of the gal lant dead are wards of the people, a sa cred legacy bequeathed to the United States for protecting care. ' 11th. Foreign immigration in the past has added so much to the wealth and inccased resources of this nation, the asylum of all nations, that it should be fostered hy a liberal and just policy. 12th. The Convention declares its sympathy with all oppressed people who are struggling for their rights. The following additional resolutions were offered by Mr. Thompson,' aud adopted : . " . Resolved. That the adjournment of this Convention shall not work.' dissolu tion of the same, but it shall remain as organized, subject to be called together at any time or place that the Republican Executive Cmmittee shall designate. By Carl Shutz : Resolved, We highly commend in a spirit of magnauimity and forgiveness the men who have served in the rebellion and who are now frankly and honestly co-operating with us in restoring peace to the country and in the Southern States on the basis of i impartial justice and equal rights, and are received into the communion of loyal people, and that we are in favor of the removal of the di-jjualifications or restrictions imposed ipthe late rebels iu the same measure as he spirit of disloyalty disappears, as may be consistent with the safety of loyal peo ple.
