The following letter is taken from the Houston TelegrapJi of February 2d, and was written to that journal by an old and at one time prominent Texan Mr. Theo dore. The letter is dated Portland, Or., January 3d, 1871, and is as follows : Little did you or "JL think, when we last met on the Colorado, that I should turn up here or become your corres pondent ; but here I am, and believing that your readers would like now and then to hear from this jumping-off place, I propose to find rtom in the Telegraph, if you will let me, and so here goes for the first letter. , ! Oregon as a State is not very small, that is to say, eliei has square . miles enough to make quite a State, but instead of being what some might call a big lit tle State, 1 would call her a very small big States containing, ' if my ; memory serves me right, about 90,000 inhabi tants, scattered about something like the Texan man's hogs were, one here; in- a drove and three over there by them selves, a very large, per centagc, how ever, being confined to the - Willamette Valley, which valley1 constitutes Oregon in fact, and is about twenty miles wide by about two hundred long. That is Oregon, and to say that this Willamette Valley is one of the most highly favored districts ot country in the United States is not saying any too much ; for indeed it is a favored spot -one ou which nature has most lavishly bestowed her choicest blessings, viz : one of the most beautiful rivers iu the world,; navigable from ' its mouth almost to its source, with numer ous tributaries flowing in from either side, only surpassed in beauty by itself, with a climate mild beyond the conception of any one who has not experienced ' it, healthful and invigorating, with a soil unsurpassed in fertility on the continent. Wheat, oats and barley, with all the veg etables, are grown j with cxtmordinary perfection. The farmer for the period of thirty years has never failed to receive a boun'if ul return for his labor, and frost sever kills, llain is always abundant, yet never excessive. Apples aud pears grow larger than anywhere else. Peach es and plums meet together in the sun shine, like twin cherries on the same stem, and cherries of the most delicious kind arc so plentiful that the birds will hardly cat them, i Raspberries ripened this season both in June and November, also blackberries, salmon berries, cinna monberries and strawberries. Mr. Editor, dare: I tell you how they j grow in the Willamette Valley? If my ; veraciry is brought in question, will you stand by me ? I tear you falter. Well, I am goiug to tell anyhow j they grow as i large as billiard ball.-?, that is to say, small I billiard balls. j j A3 A TIMBERED COUNTRY Oregon. is not surpassed, no, nor equaled by any. The fir, cedar and pine forests are really magnificent to behold, and in-, exhaustible. Lumber is one ofthe pain- cipal articles of export, and a consider able business of that kind is between this country aud the oldest towns in the State, and a pretty little city it is, too. Next in order op the valley comes the State Capital, said tobe -the prettiest town in Oregon, with5 city proportions, wide streets, fine hotels,' ana good houses generally, as also a fine wool en mill in full blast. Next we bare the city of Albany, and still on, Eugene City j both lively towns, and directly on the line of the Oregon and California Rail road. ' There are quite a number of other towns of lesser importance. . : .K-f'n'ti To the lover of pleasure, to those Wot have the means to travel, and who lovo fine scenery - and , natural . curiosities, I would say come to this coast, for surelj there is no place on the American conti nent that can surpass Oregon for beautiful scenery. Talk of the .Rhine, of the Alps, of France of Italy, with her,biue ekies arid vine-clad hills a greater than - all these can be found in Oregon a -There ia no country in world that can lay claim to such scenery as w to be found ou the Columbia and all of the rivers-talked of, or written, sf, dwindle; into utter . insig nificance, compared to the mighty- river of the W"est, with Its falls, .its ' cascades, j and mighty rushing waters, walled in on either side by almost perpendicular banks, I tliot Qo.trt t'fi rpfirrh almrtst to ' tKn u ,Vd above, and then j lost to view in 7 the dense forests of fir, that are never want ing i and yet more beautiful to the eye and more sublime are the ever present snow capped mountains that greet the trav eler on every side, towering far above storm, and cloud-clad a they , always are in , the eternal -. garments of spotlers white, contrasting beautifully with the evergreen forests by which they are surrounded. "' No pen or -ink sketch can give the faintest idea of the Colum bia river seen tjry. -There are many other points on which I blight say something that would- interest . the readers' of the i Telegraph, but having written- more al ready than should be crowded into on letter, I leave the subject fortho present, but may have occasion to say something of Oregon on some future occasion.

From , letter describing Jenny Lind'a recent appearance in Exeter hall London, we quote the following : It was not entirely the fog whieh made our eyes see dimly the sweet-faced ' wo man sitting by the side of her '.husband ; thinner, older, sadder, but still with the same winning, pathetic - atmosphere about every pose, and every expression which conquered all hearts twenty years ago, disarm all criticism and will contin- . ue to do so as long as Jenny Lind's soul remains in Jenny Lind's body. If there be such things as perfect grace of clum siness, perfect beauty of homeliness, she has them; and they are more lasting than the grace of gracefullnctss, or the beauty of good looks. As it is with her iacc, her .movements, her attitudes, so it is with her voice. Sacred above . all - it j has lost, it has kept a certain something j of individuality that one would know it i tor Jcnnv Lind's voice. : In SDite of the carried ou i husky chest tones, in spite ofthe strained California, j and hardly reached C, there ia a peculiar South America. Europe and Asia, and I soul full quality which has rarely been this will always be quite a source of in- on any stage, except when Jenny Lind come. i j has sung. Critics would say and, per- J. 0.

OREGON ENTERPRISE. j On this point she has no'hing to be ashamed of, taking into consideration all the surroundings. Of railroads she can boast of but one, aud that one was com menced but one year ago and is now in ruuuing order for a distance of one hun dred miles, with rolling Ftock and quip ments that will compare favorably with any road in the East. This is called the Oregon and California Railroad, running from this point southerly toward Sacra mento, California, from which - point the same road is now some hundred miles thia side, coming to connect with our end of the road near the State line. MANUFACTORIES. Ol woolen goods there are three one at Oregon City, ono at Salem, the pres ent seat of Government, and one at the falls on the Columbia river, all io suc cessful operation and turning out work that will compare favorably with the best New England fabrics. IRON FOUNDRIES. There are quite a number at this place, and nlso at most of the important towns on the Willamette river. Tho State abounds with abundance of coal and iron, aud is consequently able within herself to manufacture everything in, tho hard ware line down, from a locomotive to a cooking stove. ' ' f ; ' ' ' ' " " "'i1 LUMBER AND FLOURING MILLS. In this line, Oregon is up with the times, having as good saw and grist mills as cau be iound in any State, and owing to the great amount of wheat, produced and her very superior water power, per haps she has better lacuities lor making flour than can be found in the ; land "of wooden nutmegs, where, it ia said, they have a patent for making carpet baggers.
