A letter from Clallam county, W. T., to the Courier, says: The farmers are now getting in their hay. The soil here is remarkably good. One farmer, named Smally, showed me a piece of land which had been under cultivation 'for fif teen years, and now he expects to get 100 bushels of wheat to the acre from that piece of land. I walked through wheat and grass that completely hide from view any medium-sized man. Strangers would do well to come and settle in this part of the country. There are at present very few real farmers. mong the principal go-ahead men of this place we mat reckon Captain McAlmond, Mr. Smally and Mr. Davis. At present McAlmond is busy with his reaping machine cut ting his neighbors' hay. Tlie County Commissioners of Thurston county, W.

Albany, Oregon-4vj The officers at Camp Criley, in the Arkansas Valley between March 1, 1874, and Jane 18, counted 1, 478 emigrant teams, all heading for Southern Colorado. The floral editor of the George town Miner reports that "the moun tains now ore in full bloom, from the elgant cloumbine down to the modest kinnikinnick," Why was it all Bight? Con. gressman Sloss, of Alabama, has ap peared in a new role.. Beaching home on Friday last, he learned that one George F. Long had been slan dering his daughter. Instead of remonstrating with him or calling him out, or instituting suit, Sloss set tled the case by taking his gun and filling Long so full of buckshot that he is not long for this earth. The most remarkable feature of this case is the satisfaction of both parties. Sloss is satisfied because he has shot Long, and Long, upon being inform ed that it was Slogs who had shot him, remarked, "That'e all right." This would seem to indicate either that Long wm gratified because Sloss was even with bira, or that it was soothing to his pride to be assured that he was shot by a Con gressman.
