From the Cultivator ot yesterday we clip
the following preamble and resolutions
passed bv Harrisbnrg Grange, No. 11. P.
ot H.. at its l3t meeting. It will be seen
that this Grange proposes to back the in
dependent line of steamboats plying on the
Willamette, owned by Messrs. U. B. Scott
A Co. For a full understanding of the
matter, read : '
Whereas, Reasonable rates for transpor
tation of wheat and other products to Port-
laud or Astoria is the only means by which
the fariwrs of Oregon, and especially tlie
upper part of the Willamette Valley can
expect fair prices for tlieir surplus. .
Whereas. Certain lines of transporta
tion have from time to time been organized
for the carrying trade ot the Willamette
river, and have afterwards either sold out
to, or consolidated with, former com pa ides
running boats on tbeWllL-invtte. thereby
giving them a monopoly of the freights on
.ald river. . .

have organized aa Independent line, con
xlstiiifc of the Steamers City of Salem."

there was a great deal of sport made of hi.p
by the horsemen of the country. Thl
horse afterwards went to Illinois and was
the sire of over 400 successful stallions and
demonstrated to the stock men of the West
tlie value of this stock. Mr. F. has made
several visits to France since, and familiar
with breeding and handling of this stock In
Ohio. "Flenry" and "Pride of Perche
are probably as promising young horses as
any he lias ever selected. Mr. Myer now
has at his ranch 3 imported stallions and 7
mares that are full b'ood of high grade, one
three-fourths mare being the lowest grade
he has. The following is an extract from
the Live Stock Journal, which speaks for
ttseir :
Mr. E. A. Buck, who ha recently beennv
one of tlie proprietors and editor-in-chief
of the Spirit nf the Time, has spent mostot
his time for a year past In Europe. He
has always been an admirer nf trotting and
running horses, and is an enthusiastic lover
of the sports of the tnrf. While In Europe
he critically examined the various breeds
of horses in tlie several countries visited
by him. and he was so favorably impressed
with the drat, horses of France that he
purchased ", twelve ' Percheron stallions,
which reached New York in fine condition
about tour weeks ago. Mr. Buck is enthu
siastic In his praises of this breed and ssys
that the finest general purpose, and the
best and most stylish carriage horses he
has ever seen are the produce of tlie second
cross from tlie Norman or Percheron stock
in France, and be thinks they cannot fail
to produce the same results iu this coun
try.' We are especially gratified at this
expression of opinion from one so well
qualified to be a critical as well as an Im
partial judge upon such- matters, fur It
accords with our own often expressed con
victions upon this subject, although our
views have been frequently cnnibarted in
these columns by gentlemen whose opinions
are entitled to great weight. - r
As a question ot breeding, the effect of
the cross upon our American norses is an
interesting one. and it to. in a fair way to
be thoroughly tested. So tar If has certain
ly given very general satisfactioiu for no
where are they more popular than where
they liaAe been most extensively tried.,
In proof of this expectation, there Is
"Lulu," designated by sportingmen as the
'Queen of the TurC having made the
three best mile beats en record. Her grand
sire was au Imported French horse. There
was a one-half brother of "Lulu" by tlie
same horse, who was of great promise a
few years ago, but met with some accident
and did not come before tlie public.
Herewith is a letter from Mr. P. Wat
kins, of Wasco county. In which he gives
the reception of 4 head of one-half blood
Colt he bought in this and Douglas county
last Fall, and making Inquiry about some
others he then saw : r - ' r "

W. C. MYEE Dear Sir 1 Knowing, or
at least believing, that you would be glad
to know how I succeeded With my horses I
shall endeavor, as an opportunity offers,
to write you a few lines. . f -
I suppose you learned that I bought Mr.
Raymond's "Beecher." He to a fine fellow
au iron-grey, stands sixteen bands, or
upwards, high, and draw fifteen hundred
pounds. I had no trouble bringing them
up, except that "Scott became a little
sore footed owing to his not being used to
traveling. - -
How shall I tell what people think ot
them? , Along the road it was. "Oh, what
nice horses I" Hallo! Goiug to the
Fair?" Where's Myers!" On being told
iron Kiev oeiougea to me, iney would say.
"Why, that's Myer's old mare, ain't It?"
In Portland it was said that they were the
finest horses that had ever; walked the
streets. Up here everybody says that they
are the best horses they ever saw I mean
everybody who is not some way concerned
in other stallions. I left them in Dalles
one day, as I came np, that people might
