Mark Twain ox Female Suffrage. In a letter on this thetnc, Mark Twain says: A. female political canvass would bo an outrageous thing. Think of the torchliht processions that would distress our eves. Think of tlvo curious legends on tho transparencies: "liobbins forovcr! Vote for Sallic liobbins, tho only virtuous candU.ito in the field 1" And this: "Chastity, modesty, patriot ism ! Let the great people staud by Ma ria Sanders, the champion of morality and progress, aud the only candidate with a stainless reputation 1" And this : "Vote for Judy McGiunis, the incorruptible ! Nine chilrea one at the breast " In that day a man shall say to hi3 serv ant, What is tho matter with tho baby V And the servant shall reply, "It has been iick fur hours." "And where is its moth er?" ''She is out electioneering for Sal lie Bobbins." And such conversations as thct te shall transpire between ladies and its applying for situations : "Can you cook ?" "Yes." "Wash V "Yes." "Do gonernl housework ?" "Yes.? "All right; who is' vour choice for State Milliner V "Judy McGinniss." "Well, you can tramp." And women shall talk politics instead of discussing the fashions; and they shall neglect the duties of tho household to go out and take a drink with candidates ; and men shall nurse the baby while their wives travel to the polls to vote. And also in that day the man who hath beautiful whiskers -shall beat the homely man of wisdom for Gov crnor. and the man who waltzes with cs quisite grace shall be Chief of Police in preference to the man ot cuort, sagacity and determined energy. Emerson on "The Baby." Ono of the sweetest nd prettiest of Emerson's latest writings is the following ; "Who knows not ihe beautiful group of babe and mother, sacred in nature, sacred also in the religious associations oi half the globe ? Welcome to the parents is the puny little struggler, strong xn nis weakness. Ins little arms more ir rosistiblo than the soldier's; his Iip3 touched with persuasion which Chat ham anl Pericles in manhood had not The SKiall despot asks so little that all nature and icason are on his side. His ienorance is more charminir than all knowledge, and his little sins more be witching than all virtue. All day, be tween his three or four sleops, he coos like a pigeon, sputters and spurns and tsuts on laces of importance : and when he fasts, the little Pharisee fails not to sound his trumpet before him. Out of blocks, thread spools, cards and check ers, he will build hi? pyramid with the gravity of a Palladio. V ith an accous tic apparatus of whistle and rattle he explores the laws of sound. But chielly like, hb senior countrymen, the young American studies new nnd speedier modes of transportation. Mistrusting the cun nincr of his Email lejrs, ho wishes to ride on the necks and shoulders of all flesh. The small enchanter nothing can withstand no seniority of age, no grav ity of character; uncles, aunts, cousins, grandsires, grandmas all fall an easy prey ; he conforms to nobody, all con form to him, all caper and make mouths. and babble and chirrup to him. On on the strongest shoulders he rides, and pulls the hair of laureled heads.; A Literalist or a JoKER.-The Bishop of Oxford sent round to the church wardens in his diocese a circular of inquiries, among which was : "Does your officiating clergyman preach the gospel, and is his conversation and carnage consistent therewith?" The church warden near Wallinford replied ' He preaches the Gospel, but docs not ceep a carriage. Wool Fraud. The wool circular of ihe San Francisco Wool Exchange says ; A system of fraud, practiced by woo growers in the interior, has been the cause of great annoyances to our manu facturers and buyers. They have found themselves victimized so cleverly as to be enable for a long time to ascertain mean3 by which it was done. . Purchasers in the interior "suffer severely wool bought by item losjqg from 7 to 13 per cent, in weight while m transit to this city. After dili gent search for the cause of these losses it was fcund that quite a number of woo growers were in the habit of sprinkling wa ter on the fleeces before packing them for ala. The pvjj of this fraud does not end however, by the loss of weight, as the wa ter, in connection with the natural grease causes fermentation, which injures the strength of the staple, and causes it to be black yellow instead of white, so that it can only be used for dark colored and inferior grades of goods. Oregon wools received in this city have also been found in very, bad condition, the fleeces in some cases being mixed with stones, and others with sheep mannre. These adulterations have been made purposely to defraud, the adulterations in 6ome fleeces being three pounds each. Wool growers on tho Pacific coast must be. very shortsighted to thus destroy the L-l' 1 it j cpuiuuuLi oi mmr cups oy mesa practi ces mat are to plainly irauaulent, 3?A- lady, out with her little girl and poy, purchased him a rubber balloon which escaped him and flew into the air me girl, seeing the tears in his eyes saia: "iNever mind, Aeddy, when .you die and do to heaven you 11 dit it." - l9"The following curious epitaph may now do seen in Uunmore churchyard.

Oregon U the most wctera portion f tbe Uol udSutes; mm organized as a Territory on the. id of May, lf13, and ras admitted into tbe Union 'tn the 12th of February, 1S59. It is bounded on the north by Washington Territory, from which it i separated by the Columbia river aad the 46tU parallel of north latitude; east, by a line from tbe i month of the Owyhee rirer, due south to tbe par- jaikl of 42' north; sooth along- said parallel, to, Hoe Pacific ; and on the west by tbe Paci&e ocean. It lies btttresn 42 and 4o20' north latitude, and bstween lOiO' and 1213U' west longitude. The countrv i principally mountainous. Some ! narrow jftr'ps of country lying around tbe coast I between the mocnuins and the sea are very rich ' and productive, but tbe difficulty of communica : tion ha hitherto reUrdcd their settlement. I tins Willamette VaL'ey. lying distant about forty talks from the ocean, and parallel with tbeeoat .'parated from it by the coast range of mountain S1P0 miks in length, and from 40 to 0 miles in width. The land is principally prairie, , of fine ;snl, well timbered, and watered by mountain ' streams, which empty near the centre of tbe Vsd i iey into the Willamette rirer. which is oarizated by eieatuboats iu entire length daring one-ball f the year. AGRICCbTCRAb paOtCCT3. The land in the Willamette Valley are very productive. Wheat, oat, barley, vegetables, etc, yield largely. It is believed to be tbe finest wheats, growing region ia ths United taies. Land is worth from $5 to $15 per acre, depend-, ing on tbe thar.u tr of the Soil and the amount of improvement. Fruit of ercry variety are produced in larg. qiat;t;tics and iu great perfection. Owing to the cool temperature, corn and jjvapes do not do eo. wjil, thou -h they are cultivated to a Hsaited ex-, tent. Wage f-r farm laborers range from $25 to per month in this part of tbe country. S .uth of tho Willamette, toward California, are the Umpqia and Kogue river valleys. They arev more limited than the Willamette, but hare the ame general characteristics. Tbe climate is more mili, and tobaeco grows to perfection. The wildj grass is very fin.-, and the number of cattle, horses, and sheep raised is very large.
