Central Com mittees. , . Tb Vuary Bill. Many Inquiries having been made re garding the late of the osnry bills intro duced into the hut Legislature, tlie Farm er furnishes the information required In Its Issue of February 13lh. Two bills" were introduced to reduce the rates of Interest : House Bill No. 48. by K. H. Tyson, aud House Bill No. 87, by Mr.- Bradley.' The first was withdrawn or postponed indefi nitely in favor ot the latter. After the Second reading of If. B. 87, it was referred to a select committee ot five, consisting of Messrs. Bradley, Kamsby, Rinehart, Car ter and Fountain. A majority ol this com mittee made a report on the 5th ot Octo ber, favoring 7 per cent, on special con tract, while the minority! consisting of Kamsby and Rinehart; reported lu favor of 8 per cent, as the legal rate, with 12 per cent, allowable on special contract. The House by a vote of 16 to 37 refused to adopt the minority report and then by a Vote of 40 to 13 refused to amend the ma jority report, only seven being absent. Toward tlie close of the session the bill came up for passage, and received 30 votes out of a total present of 43, thus lulling to pass because tlie State Constitution requires thai a majority of the whole Legislature imiSl be obtained to pass a bill. One more vote would have secured its passage in the House. Those voting against the passage f the bill were : Messrs.Br-nnet, Beckley, Cole, Chandler, Curtis, Campbell, Dorris, Everts Gates, Gilbert, Hewitt, Lee. Pur din, Rinehart, Reeves, Stearns, Thomp son aud Wright 13. Absent Messrs. Acton, Broback, ChSiitJwpfh, Caldwell, Fretlanrtt Green, Huglies,HamiIton, John son, Matiiibn, Stratton and YVebded 12. It is-'beiieted that it some of those who were absent had been, in their seats on the occa sion, the bill iou'.d have passed the House, Of the members of Linn county, one of them, C. H. Hewitt, voted against tlie bill ; Mr. Hamilton was absent, and the remain ing members voted in tavor of the bill. This usury matter was then and is now one of great moment to the voters of Ore gon, a great majority of whom are op posed ta the present high rate ot interest, as. so long as it remains unchanged upon bur statute books, just so long will it re tard the inaugurating and building u, of manufacturing and other industries iu our State. Just as long as capitalists can ob tain twelve per cent, tor their money, they will never Invest in enterprises so greatly demanded in developing the resources and wealth of the State, because legitimate enterprises seldom pay so large a per cent Jt h well enough to know who is for us and who is against us as we meander along. On the 24 th of February M. DeLessers accomDanied bv a number ol his corps of engineers, arrived In New York, where a grand banquet was tendered him. Already, according to the telegram announcing thtt above tact, be lias made sufficient surveys of his proposed canal route to satisfy him tfclf" of the practicability ot his plan, and he Is confident that within the period of eight years, and at an expense not esceediug $160,000,000, he can open commurri cation between the two oceans for the commerce of the world. There can be no doubt of fift great executive ability iu the line in which he has won a world-wide fame; and as there is just as little doubt ot tlie probity of his character, Ids matured" fievv's on tlie 1,: a. r ft,.

In considering the question asked at the head of this article, the S. F. CMonitle says ; ' i. ;.-';''." The consideration of the curious C.ihrtre of temperature of which the people of this coast have for two months past been the v wjiiiii uKeu me query w net tier me climate is not changing whether the Japan gulf stream (the Kuro Shlwo) lias , not broken loose from H .old coiirsc-and de termined no longer to give life and warmth to a land which refuses to recognize the virtues of a Mongol race. It Is a grave question, which demands investiga tion. If this sea current has been trifled with by some sportlVe submarine volcano and induced to , alter its time-honored eon.-se, then good-by to all future pians on our "glorious climate." iVe shajl be un able to show straw berries in February, even under glass. We shall be foreclosed Irom bragging about an exceptionally warm day as the usual alleged winter weather. Iu brief, we shall be complete ly chnnfallen. There, is little difference in latitude between this city and St. Paul, Minnesota, or Portland, Maine. At the latter places the mercury is given to the custom of dropping down to thirty or forty degrees below zero. So. if the cur rent lias been deflected, this is what is in store for us. The prospect is not cheerful and we await the arrival of special news from some scientific mariner with much impatience. ii I'utversal Slnaau. A gloomy Cincinnati philosopher, who has been sharpy observing tlie stars while tlie most of his tellow citizens have beeu killing hogs and packing pork, publishes a startling prediction. He announces what Is already well known, that In the latter part of the yearlSSl there will occur a con junction of tlw four principal planeUs "an event that has never been recorded in the history of tlie world,"' aud lie therefore proceeds to prophesy in a diabolical strain that would cost him his life in some coun tries. He thinks that If the electrical ermi libi iuni of the earth's axis Is disturbed by this planetary conjunct;ou, the earth will either "be shattered into infinite space and fall in meteoric fragment," or that all animal or vegetable life will bo de stroyed by terrible upheavals and other calamities too appalling to enumerate. The San Francisco Chronicle comments upon the above prediction as follows: "What he thinks people ought to do ubout it he neg'ecta to state. If there is any way to postpone that planetary conjunction, the matter should certainly be attended to. Similar predictions have occasionally been thrown out on the same subject, in the past year or two, but in terms more vague, by astronomers who liitxe some regard for peoples feeling', and are backward abou1 scaring everybody to death. There should be Immediately organized a Society for the prevention of Planetary Conjunctions, to which should be connected a subordinate Society tor the Preservation of thfe Elec trical Equilibrium of the Earth's Axis. If the Cincinnati man's view3 are e6rree no" time s'iouIJ be lost in organizing." Thc progress of Christianity In Abyssin ia is in the highest degree encourasnig. Not less than 100.000 persons have renounc ed the Moslem creed and accepted the let ter faith. It is to be feared, however, that the means of conversion will not com mand the approval ot American Christians. By order of King John, all subjects who refuse to believe and lie saved have hoiling tallow poured into iheir ears, and are other wise ingeniously influenced to acquire a change of heart. It is ouly occasionally that a really .perverse slnnb Is found. Whatever view may be taken of such methods, the practical results are immense. A formidable insurrection lias broken out at tle chief city of Abyssinia, and the King has fled to collect an army. He Is too mild a mannered sovereign to please his tumnltoite subjects. They remfcmbc'r the rollicking days ot Old King Theodore; who" thought, nothing of slaughtering ft fi-w huiidred men before breakfast, and hence, probably, the disturbance. This seems to be a trotb'ssomS period for monarch's. The Eastern papers are (ulf of item's showing the reckless freedom with which the Western miner handles coin as well as deri tigers. The latest fable Is of a Lead- ville miner who attended si ball iu Chica go, got drunk, became very warm while waltzing, took off his coat and laid it in a window. A police officer took posessioit of tlie coat and found in a pocket $127,000 in bills! As Miss Edgewortli always said when drawing a rfcmar'kably loi.g bow: Till Is a fact." The gold value of merchandise imported into the United States tor the eleven months ending November 30, 1879, amounted to ? 433,003,032; the merchandise exports of the country for the same period amounted to 1684,300,032. The excess of exports over Imports amounts to 23(?,310.000. Thts showing Is highly favorable to Amer ican Ihduitrie?, but, compared with the pre ceding year, a considerable falling off Is apparent. It is probable, however, that when the figures ot December, 1879, are Included! the difference will not be ma- teilal.' - : . :- Many farmer's areexceedingly dissatisfied ith their profession, and repine at their duties.
