It ia our painful duty to chronicle the
death of our wull known and repeOcJ
fellow citizen James P. 11 ge. 1 1 his
pa-iof-ul evcut occurred at the residence
of his sou, the Hon. H. A. Hogue, in
Portland, on the first instant Mr. Hogue
had been absent during a part of tho
winter, on a visit to his aged mother and
other relatives in Illinois and Iowa. On
tho day preceding his death, be landed
from tho steamer in a very feeble state, a
chronic affection cf the kidneys having
been greatly aggravated by sea sickness.
A few hours after landing, the symptoms
assumed an alarming character, and baf
fled all the efforts of medical skill.
Advised by a telegram, his wife aud
daughter, hastened to his bedside, but too
late to find him conscious of their pres
ence. .(.;.----.'
; Mr. llogue was born in Blount county,
Tennessee, in 1807, and at the ago of
twenty-one removed to Indiana, where he
married and continued to reside till 1S35
The next eighteen years cf his life were
spent to Illinois, where he t was eugnged
in many enterprises, a'partof the time as
a merchant and dealer in real estate. . In
the fall of 1853, he arrived with his fam
ily in Oregon, and settled in Linn county,
where he has been known as one of our
most extensive aud successful farmers,
a public spirited and influential eitizen.
He was a man of marked characteristics ;
among them, indomitable purpose ; Tove
of country ; strong and s:cadust friend
iliipj kindness to the needy, and great
liberality in sustaining and promoting
objects of public utility. No man ever
regretted having James P. lloguo as a
frieud. - . : -
In the church of his choice he was an
active aad exemplary member for forty
seven years, having made a public pro
fession at the age of seventeen.
His remains were attended tothetomb
by aii unusually largo concourse of citi
zens, the Ilsv. Dr, Geary, for many years
the pastor'of the deceased, conducting
the funeral solemnities. -
He has left a noble .example of integ
rity and enterprise, and his memory will
long be cherished by many.

Jeff. Pavis ' aanourfcement, in his
recent speech in Selma. that the rebel
lion was not dead,; and that State Sover
eignty was still a live issue in the minds,
of leading men at the South, receives the
earnest protest of the Richmond Enquir
er, a straight out Democratic sheet' of
rebel proclivities. It argues that, "if
we go into the Presidential campaign in
this temper, we are just as certain to' be
beaten as if we were to run Mr. ' Davis
himself as our candidate," an assertion
which is just as true as gospel.
SExstBLE Suggestion. A corres
pondent of an eastern paper, after having
visited the wasted districts of France,
makes a suggestion to tho French Assem
bly that is worthy of consideration iu
this country as well as in France. ' . He
asks that a register be LVpt in the hall
of the legislature, and that every man
who speaks of further war shall be com
pelled to write his name in the book, -so
that when the conflict comes, ho, with
those who have agreed with bim, eball
be the nrst to march upon , the enemy.
What if such a rule obtained? What if
the fiery orator could be made the execu
tioner of his own brilliant , campaigns,
how guarded the'public speech would be?

Eariae Cut, April 25th, 1371,
The schooner : Afasguret-Crcckard;
Cupt. Godfrey commanding, was-' ,
WHECKED -
oh the 18th iost., Boon after crossing tho
Bar. She was loaded with lumber for
the Society Islands. As she was being
towed out to sea, she struck so violently
on the Bar aa to start every timber, in
her ; but at the time it was thought no
serious-damage was incurred. The tug
towed her . out to sea, , and -returned.
When she had gone about fifteen miles
out, the Steward came on deck and told
the Captaiu that water was coining into
the cabin and he believed the hold . was
full of water. Tlie Captain went below
and found water rushing violently . into
the cabin. He rushed upon deck, brought
the vessel to, and otdered the" deck load
to be thrown overboard but before this
could bo accomplished she careened and
went over On her beams end. The crew
had barely time to secure ropes with
which to lash themselves to - the vessel.
As she went over they climbed upon the
side and lashed themselves fast. This
was late iu tbe evening. ; They remained
there over night. The next morniug
the Captain of one of the tugs descried
her from the. Lookout, and two of the
tugs went to her relief. ; By this time
the tide had brought her within five
miles of tho beach. : The tug took the
crew' on board, and worked all day. in
frying to right the Vessel, ' but tho sea
was so rough they could not succeed.
Captain and erew lost everything but the
clothiug they had on ; but our kind
citizens supplied their immediate wants,
and they were furnished by the Captains
of some of the vessels p'jmg between
here and Sau Francisco with free passes
to the city. W. D. N.

A full expose of the Connecticut fraud,
whereby 100 votes more vjcre returned
for English that were rhonesdy thrown

Courant. It makes out a clear case ol

Tammany tacties. These thieves corrupt
elections and render the ballot a farce;
and when Congress enacts a law' to re

A Wciliilug- Seiisatiou.
L utsKe CoarUr-Joamftli April 4th.)
The last ecnsatiou in Nehou county is
over a matrimonial ucnsuap wuicu occur
red not long since. The caso is that of
a sprightly young lady, aged thirtyssix, ,
who laboring under tne mistaken idea
that a hatband incarcerated in the State
prison- at Frankfort amounted to a divorce
a vinculo matromoniiv without any inter
vention ot a aeeree lroui a court bavin-;
jurisdiction? to graut divorces, gave her
self in w?uIoek to a gay old widower of
seventy-three sun mers. The conse
quence was that only a few days of mat
rimonial bliss were allowed tliciu they
We'e as happy as two verjr large sun
flowers w boo the stern inexorable law
stepped in and declared them twain, not
withstanding the man of God had pro
noiiuced them bone of one bone and flesh
of one flush. - They twaiood accordingly
and execntivo clemency has already been
brought into requisition to relievo the
lady frduf auy prosecution for bigamy.
The couple are now quietly ' resting . on
their oars, waiting for tho next term of
the Chancery Coutt to coiuc. when a di
vorce will be obtained from the'old love,'
uho is still in prison, and another wed
ding gone through-with ns to the ''new."
The bridegroom has already given sub
stantial evidence of ; his afi'ection for the
lady. Ou the day of their first wodding
he deeded hertwo hundred aeros of laud
and made her a: present-of three thous
and dollars in' money. The day follow
ing he was so well pleased with his choice
that ho ioQreased the land gift to live
hundred acres and- the money to five
thousand dollars. Should the little lady,
to further test the eii'oction of her lover,
make a demand of a few -more thousand,
on the day of their s-econd wedding, it
would add another interesting feature to
the case. s'V'
Damon asd Pvtuias. The Vallejo
Chronicle of March 28, rulates the foi
lowinj; : "The strong tie of affection that
bound David and Jonathan to each other
is described as !iain' surpassed the love
of woiaan,-ou!y one parallel ease, that of
Damon mid Pythias, having been recorded
in history. Still, in the common walks of
life, instances of remarkable attachment
of iriends for each other . -are constantly
noted. .John Mnninr a younjr man re
siding here, has a friend named Collins,
who receuthy drew a prize of Sfl,000 in
the Grass . Valley ; Lottery. Collins . at
or.ee sought out his frieuil Martin, divi
ded equally with him, and the two pro
pe to go into busines at. ValK-j-i. Such
rare, unselfish, friendship indicates a
warmth of affection that ennobles a man,
and warms the cockles of the heart of
every one conversant with tho circum
stances." :

The cotton crop now arriving at the
cotton ports of the South, promises to be
the largest since the famous one of 1 859
60. ' The Savannah ilZeptiblicani basing
its estimate on tbe number of bales al
ready received, says that the crop will
reach 3,750,000 to 4,000,000 bales. 'By
reason of its increased railroad conncc-
tioof, Savannah is fast taking position its
one of the principal eotton ports ; of the
South. ".ThifcHarsre crot establishes' tho
fact that the laud, being divided among
a targe number ia more carefully culti
rated. k
Tho Coiton receipts at Now Orleans
up to the 3d of March foots up over one
million bales ; and yet there is thousands
of bales in this portion f the country
awaiting shipment. The price of cotton
now is reduced to what it was before the
war, with nearly as large a product. This
alone is a complete refutation of the ar
gninent that the'freeduian could not or
would not raise cotton. . And ' now . we
havei'even with free, labor, the one crop
error repeated. To guard against a
repetition of these great declines, every
farmer thould vaiso hia . own bogs and
euough corn to feed them ; increase the
producing capacity of his land by thor..
ough tillage with -the best machinery.
Cotton will vet be successfully cultivated
by improved agricultural implements,
and the time is not r-far " distant when
large, crops of cotton will be raised with
one fourth the manual labor that is now
required. It is not so much the lars;e
crops, as the high costs at which they are
produced that makes the cotton ... product
this year so little remunerative, lo com
mand and control the markets ot tbe
world, we must practice the most rigid
economy and stop every unnecessary
experse.

The "inducements to new comers to
locate in the Umpqua valley ure very
fairly portrayed iu the following article
taken from the Roseburg Plainde'aler :
We have resided in various portions of tbe
Suite, and we racan do disparagement to'any oth
er section when we say that the 'Uinpqua valley is
tbe moft desirable part of Oregon for a residence,
and offers inducements for the investment of cap
ital equal to any other. It has a large area of
farming land oi unsurpassed fertility, and low in
price, not in one body, but situated the bot
toms bordering tho numerous rivers and creeks,
which are separated by hills of various hcishtd.
all of which produce Hue crops of grass to their j
summits. Urniu is acerbate crop, ana bos never 1
failed here to any extent, while tbe hiils furnish
tho best ranges tor sheep and cattla in tbe woild.
Wood and water are plentiful, and tbe climate is
delightful. "There are no high winds, the rains
are not excessive i'j winter nor the heat in the
summer. no-,r seldom falls, never to auy great
depth, and tfco spring opeus Sooner hero than any

those acqaainte.l v.-iih the country, but have becj

CAt-iroBSiA CaoE' TusPEcrs. The Marysvillo
Appeal of Saturday has the following In re
lation to crops iu "ulifornia : We wish we could
send forth cheering intelligence from this section
that the crop pro?p; cts wore never better, and that
the changes cf an abundant httrvest were reduced
to a certainty. But unfortunately we cannot. It
has beon the misfortnncof onr fanners that nearly
(.very rain this winter has been imuiediately fol
lowed by a drying north wind, that soon evapora
ted the uioUture, and to a greater or lc9g extent
ncntraLzed the good eCects uf the rain. For sev
eral days past a sti on;:, hot parehing wind has
been blowing from the north, and the iijury it
has entailed upon the crops mnt bo very grout.
Farmers eoming to town are despondent, and all
agree upon the necessity of early and copious
ruins. The bud effects of the north wiud are not
however general, but appear to eueet the crops in
streaks and localities; as while some fields look
badly, other. clotly. adjacent have a thrifty and
harJv appeii ranee. The crops wi!i not lj a fuil-
nre by any lu.'ar-s, but tie drawbacks wo hav
mentitned will reduce the aggregate yield far ba-
Ijjw what was recently anticipated. -

A Roy's Letter. .
liobby is spending his summer vaca
tion in the country, and writes as follows
to bis scliooltnate at home :
Djsab Jim.ut : Ask your mother to
briny you up here, right vlh It's gay.
There's fishing here, and plenty of
worm's to catch 'cm with. -You- stick
the hook. in 'em and they wiggle bully.
Fishing's funnier when you don't catch
the book in the sent of your pantaloons,
?o'te yon can't fit down ui.d can't C-.li all
tlvc way home. I did that the other day,
and Mr. JenkynS, couiin Laura's beau,
ask't me if I was a sob or a heel. Sup
pose he thought it, was l'uuny, but
I didn't see it. iJ.meby, I ee liim cat
a little piece out ot cnusin . Jiura's hair
where her hook caught, and Wi.-s it like
a great gabey, aud put it in his pocket.
So I told 'em at tea, and evei body else
laft. They have cows here and 1 ,o to
see them milked.'':; They don't pump it
out with their tails, like you , and I
thought they did, but they squeeze it out
of a bag that comes ou purpose, I sup
pose. 1 milked the other niaht. It was
very bard to squeeze, and it would cut go
iuto tlie pail, faomc ot it went into my
eyes, and the re3t of it up', my sleove.
1 dou t like milking. I Uon t like turkey-
cocks neither. ; They ruffla themselves
up biz and run at you. They are a very -
pberocious bird, and disagree bl3 to 1. vc
with.' (.htckens are nicer. i 0 cat cm.
They put them under a bari! at night, and
Will and 1 kill tbeiu in the morning.
We have bullv fuu wrinoinsr their necks.
You'd better tome here right o!f, and
bring a shot gun, for there ' are bears
here, and we saw a fox, aud some candy,
becos we can't get any hbre, aud a pop
gun and some bows arid arrows, and
things. - Perhaps we could slioot a decr.
1 think Mr. Jeufcytis id a bluiuel i'o-A;
He niada believe tind a deer? tract the
oi her day, aud when 1 looked at it, it
was nothing . but the . marks of cousin
Laura's boot. I do not see what makes
men so happy about girls. We woo't be
will wc ? 1 d be ashamed. - I'm going
to ride old &iu to-morro-. He's a horse.
You tide him bareback and it's very
har.d to stick on, he feels so 6iuiru;y.
