For President of tbe United States, JAMES A GARFIELD, or okio. For Vice President, CHESTER A. ARTHUR, OF NEW YORK. For Presidential Electors, GEO. R CURRY, C. B. WATSON, E. L. APPLEOATE. RECOLLECTIONS OF THE PAST-WITH SOME FEATURES jQF THE PRESENT. There is one feature of our American-civilization or progress which as a people we lake great pleasure in mentioning : it is, tire rapid develop ment of the country in all that per tains to material prosperity. In '.his advancement, it is well to remember, we owe the proud position we occu py to the industry and steadfast en ergy and example of the fathers of the republic. This was exemplified in their individual character and col lectively in the construction of laws, customs, and morals. As an illus tration of the above and for the ben efit of those who konw only of the present it may be stated that thirty or forty years ago the ablebodied population of the country were work ing men that is, all but infancy and old age, were occupied in some busi Bess effort s. Steadily as the day eame from sunrise to sunset, except Sunday, was the labor performed with the exception of one hour noon ing. There was little or no poverty there were none rich, as we meas ure wealth to day. ' If sickness pre vailed in the abode of even the hum blest, where such charity and careful tenderness in tl e efforts bestowed by- kind neighbors to restore health. In the laws for government while they were the most liberal they were made to sit upon the shoulders of all with exact justice, while this was imperatively demanded, few dared to resist measures recognized as just and npon which depended the very stability and growth of all interests. There were marked features as there were men of mark in this etrlier civilization, and among these features o strongly prominent, were as they labored the six long days, they care fully abstained from all labors on the Sabbath. There was nothing in the strong chaiacterislics of the people of that day, and there were many, so strongly marked as their determ ination to havs a quiet and orderly Sabbath, and they had it, not only in the larger cities, but in country towns also, and what too which was not only remarkable but creditable to those who had left other lands and joined with the early settlers in the work of the day, was, that the cus toms prevailing were readily acquies ed in and adopted by the strangers. If there was any wrong or hardship in this method we never heard of it, for all, or the great majority favored it, and thus it was the law. We have singled this out from among the many noble features of the work ef the men of that day to enquire if the movements we have among s is designed to make us better men and women better citizens and if n will lead ns to the proud position Charles Sumner mentioned when he etated in one of his most remarkable speeches, the day would come when the proudest boast of man would be that he could say he was an Ameri can citizen. If the writer under stands the meaning of this utterance of a great mind, it is, that we should arrive ai a far higher development than men of our day can conjecture, if this is so, may we not enquire if the Betting aside the most marked features of the civilization he had been trained under and to revere and the opposite of the same is to be in- augerated, will this lead us to that goal, Mr. Sumner in his experience as a student, a scholar and a states man had conjectured us capable, and which every true American desires. While the writer is opposed to Sabbatarian laws, is in favor of the broadest liberty, and to this end, enlightened and liberal public senti ment well directed must and wili have the best effect. For this pur pose what can we do better tnan to recall the best actions of the best men ot the past for our guidance now. This at least merits respect that we hold in reverence the exam ple and work of men who have laid well the foundations for a great peo ple. Is it not then, if we desire to build up, to do so by recognizing the foundations prepared for us and not by abandoning or adopting. methods which were so repugnant to t-he fathers. GENERAL BUTLErVS SUGGESTION. General B. F. Butler repeated at Los Angeles the suggestion that it is at the Court of St, James rather than in Peking that the mosteffective steps can be taken to restrict Chinese im migration. The suggestion is based on the fact that the Chinese seeking this country all embark at the En glish port of Hongkong. There is also some evidence that the lazar- houres not only of that city, but per haps also of Canton, are emptying heir miserable inmates on San Fran cisco. There is no other hypothesis upon which the extraordinary num her of lepers which from time to time have been discovered here can be explained. But matters have somewhat chang ed of late in Hongkong. The Eng lish authorities have at length got some inkling of the peculiar nature of the social customs of the Chinese. Until lately they had no knowledge of the fact that boys and girls were soid under their very noses, and that a system of slavery prevailed in an English dependency, which differed only in degree from that African bondage which the civilization of the nineteeth century has pretty nearly destroyed. On a recent occasion Sir John Smale, the Chief Justice of the island, gave it as his opinion that there were not less than 20,000 per sons held as slaves in the colony Both he and Governor Hennessey have since been using all their power to extirpate the brutal traffic which England has been the foremost na tion in breaking up. If servitude among the Chinese is to be suppressed in Hongkong, it is not likely that the business cT ship ping slaves to other lands would b regarded with more tolerance. Then is not. much doubt that the adminis tration at that place, if it is not able to deal with the evil, will get all the support of which it may stand in need from such a ministry as that over which W. E. Gladstone presides. The English only control the matter because the embarcation takes place at one of their ports. But that can not be regarded by any means as a permanent factor in the busincs, The Chinese capitalists who are en gaged in this new form of the slave trade have means enough to ship di rectly from Canton. As a matter of fact, since the Hongkong authorities have been looking into Chinese sla very the former have been hiring or buying steamers of their own which they can dispatch from any port they please. They recently had one of their steamers running between Can ton and the Sandwich Islands. It i.i apparent from these facts that the ultimate settlement of the ques tions involved rests with Peking. At the same time, some good might be effected by carrying out the sugges tion of General Butler. A represen tation on the part of our Minister, Mr. Lowell, to Mr. Gladstone, would at least have the effect of strength ening tbe hands of Governor Hen nessey and Sir John Smale. They will not allow Hongkong to be con verted into a second Zanzibar. Know ingly, that dependency of the British crown will not be allowed to become a slave mart. Meanwhile there is something for our Government to do with regard to its own officials. The rapacity and venality of our Consuls at the port in question have been ef ficient allies of the men-sellers of Canton. The examination which these offi cials are required to make in the case of every person embarking for this country, with a view to the suppres sion of cooliesm, of late years has degenerated into a mere form, in which fees seems to be the objective point. There is not any reason to believe that the law of Congress bearing on the subject would, under the most efficient administration, be an adequate remedy. Consul Mose by, who has made the revelations in regard to the practices of former consuls, is presumptively discharging with vigor his duties. But there is no percptible decrease in Chinese em gration to this country. The most earnest functionary would be certain to be baffled at many points by the perjury in which Chinese are such adepts. But if there is any way in which his position could be rendered more effective than it is, it ought to be thought out and formulated. That, however, is a part of the general proposition which must be worked out in the first instance by tbe De partment of Stale. At this time in the National treas ury at Washington city there are five hundred tons of silver dollars. And yet the average citizen has to travel seven or eight blocks to find some body who will ehange a ten-dollar gold piece. An observing man has discovered a similarity between a young lady's seminary and a sugar-house, as both refine wbat is already sweet. FROM A QREENBACKER. Editor Gazette : It is really surprising to see how the Greenback party was sold out in this county, by a few antiquated demagogues. A great many men connected with this move are in good faith, and would like to see some reformation in our political affairs. But they can not gain the confidence of the people so long as they are led by unscrupu lous politicians. Men who have been discarded from other political parties on account of their intrigue and treachery cannot be trusted here. It is a little strange how these old gray wolverines get into the fold ot this new party and scatter and de vour the sheep, some of t hem were young Iambs who had never left the told or ventured out into the cold charities of.a political campaign be fore. One of the dodges of these self constituted leaders was to have a lot of tickets printed with names from both the old parties on them so as to deceive the people. By doing this, they might be able to elect cer tain men that pleased this class ot leaders, whether it suited the voters or not. This spotted kind of ticket was sent out on the eve of election to the varions precincts in order to deceive and humbug the honest yeo manry of the county. Every good man though he may lie elected to office by such means looks upon it as mean and dishonorable. I live near the burnt woods and au preyy hard up for money, and I don't like to be sold out in this way If tbe Greenback party is going to be bilked and hum Imaged in this style, I will have nothing to do with it. It must lie built on a more solid foundation than this or the whole thing will go down. The most of the gentlemen who ran upon the Greenback ticket did not so much as get a respectable vote How do they like to be treated in that way ? If the party is on the square, why is it managed so as to deceive its honest followers? This is about the true stale of t he case. Wayland. Near the Mountains, June 20, 1880 THE LEGISLATURE.

On the82d of March, a San Fran cico gentleman, who has been in South America during the past year, having occasion to go from Valparaiso to Tacna, Peru, on legitimate private business, was arrested upon suspicion of being a Chilean spy. Being anx ious to penetrate into Bolivia, and unable to obtain a passport, he ran the Chilean blockade from Iquique, and arriving m lacna with Utile bag gage, carrying in his pockets some business and tainilv correspondence and family photographs. One ot these home letters contained the painted head ot a paper doll, sent to liiui by his two-year old boy, and a funny letter scrawled in unmeaning hieroglyphics by the same baby hands. These mementoes were view ed with great suspicion by the offi cials, and deemed quite sufficient to justify his being shot. He was in carcerated in a dungeon, guarded by iwo sentinels, and kept tor the nrst three days without food. In the course ot a few days every Chilean in the province was arrested, and as the families ot the prisoners were allowed to visit them, the American managed to smuggle a letter to a prominent merchant of the place, a Mr. Camereiy, of the firm Camerery & Kouch, to whom he had brought letters of introduction. Tins gentle man finally succeeded, at the expira tion ot three weeks, in obtaining his release. His confiscated possessions were returned to him, with the ex ceptiou of the mementoes described, which will probably occupy impor tant places in Peruvian annals, to the surprise of the little fellow who sent them. The prisoner was discharged by the authorities with considerable re luctance, a fact perhaps in part due to his manner of reception of their courtesies. Even the three days' starving did not tame him, for when they sounded him, at the end of that lime, to see whether he was ready to come to terms, and yield the key to ihe mysterious cipher, he told them he would acknwledge he was hungry, and informed them that if they would roast their Prelect or General Mon tero, he would gladly eat them, and the act might make him a civilized Peruvian.

PRCQRESS CFJHE bCSPEL. Ed. Gazette: It has often ap pea red. to me thai the pulpit was nun progressive. With themes of such infinite interest to man, ail so inex haustible in their richness, as to make it utterly impossible that the pulpit should ever disclose more than a tithe of the useful knowledge in the great store house of nature and reve lation, so that I often wonder that the same matter is so often repeated from the pulpit. But a brighter spot appears in the pulpits canopy. D C. Sherman writing from Turn Turn, June 14th to the Gazette, says : "There will be preaching at Summit school house next Sunday at 11 a. m. The question is, will tbe Yaquina railroad be built r- Here is a new question for the pul pit old to the peopf drawn out. on every rostrum, but new the pulpit. So progress marks the conduct of the pulpit as well as of other professions. Idem. P. S. I have no doubt there will be a large audience at the school house, with deep devotion, and that the question will be ably discussed. Ague Cure Is a purely vegetable bitter and powerful1 tonic, and is warranted a speedy and cer tain cure for Fever and Ague, Chills and Fever, Intermittent or Chill Fever, Re mittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, and all malarial dis orders. In miasmatic districts, the rapid pulse, coated tongue, thirst, lassitude, loss of appetite, pain in the hack and loins, and cold ness of the spine and extremities, are only premonitions of severer symptoms which terminate in the ague paroxysm, succeeded by high fever and profuse perspiration. It is a startling fact, that quinine, arsenic, and other poisonous minerals form the basis of most of the " Fever and Ague Prepara tions," "Specifics," "Syraps," and "Ton ics," in the marker., xiie preparations maue from these mineral poisons, although they are palatable, and may break the chill, do not cure, but leave the malarial and their own drug poison in the system, producing quinism, dizziness, ringing in the ears, head ache, vertigo, and other disorders more for midable thaiMbe disease they were intended to cure. AVer's Ahce Cure thoroughly eradicates these noxious poisons from the system, and always cures the severest cases. It contains no quinine, mineral, or any thing that could injure the most delicate patient; and its crowning excellence, above its cer tainty to cure, is that it leaves the system as free from disease as before the attack. For Liver Complaints, Aver's Ague Cuke, by direct action on the liver and bil iary apparatus, drives out the poisons which produce these complaints, and stimulates the system to a vigorous, liealtny condition. We warrant it when taken according to directions. Prepared by Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Practical and Analytical Chemists, Lowell, Mass. SOLD BT AM. DUUQOISTS EVERYWHERE. ATTENTICNFARMERS.

We intend to get the people who will do business withus, to build warehouses at our depot grounds, which are large enough for that pur pose, and we expect to accommodate them, so that they can do business in competition with other transportation companies.
