President Garfield when er.termg upon his official duties, r.o dubt supposed himself authorized to-exercise the same prerogatives under the c institution of the United Slates as his predecessors had done Before him. Among other things; ihe appointing power to various' offices such as col lectors of customs, post masters, IT. S. marshals and many others of like nature having always been exer cised by the president. He likewise after being inaugurated proceeded to appoint certain officials to fill "the dif ferent positions in the state of New York. Among others he appointed Robertson for collector of custom' at the port cf Mew York, without first consulting the wishes of Rosoe Conk-Img-, the Senator from New Yjrk. Mi. Cbnkling being displeased with such appointment, for some time past has been orosecutinjr a contest hi the Senate to'ascertain if the president is authorized to make such appointment orwhetherConkiing shall be permitted to exercise that prerogative. At last the president has assumed an attitude of defense, and we hope that it will soon dawn upon Mr. Conkling's vision that he does not possess that authori ty. If Mr. Conkling had been living dwin'gr the time when dictators were common, he would no doubt have been a fit subject to exercise the au thority of such a position, but in this day and age of the world, the oeople of a republican form of government want out lew dictators. Ana we sincerely hope and think that presi dent Garfield possesses sufficient abil ity and force of character to soon con vince Mr. Conkling that ho will not, under any circumstances, be dictated to by one man or any faction when it is contrary to his own views and not likely to be conducive to the interests of the people. In short we hope that Garfield will during the term for which ho was- elected president, be governed in his official capacity by his own good, common sense and for the general good of the people at targe, and not be subservient to- the dictations of any faction contrary to Bis own ?enm"of duty. By commenting thus upon the con duct of ;iur. Uonkling, we do not mean to detract from his ability, for -we concede him to be gifted- with great ability and untiring perseve rance, both qualifications being very essential to one occupying his high position, and while occupying his seat in the councils of the nation, if he would devote his attention to the many questions of legislation which the nation is so much in need of hav lag them pass in the form ot laws, and not be continually engaged in promoting discord and confusion, his efforts in that direction would no doubt result in much good to the country. ' But if Mr. Conkling's endeavors in obstructing the machinery ot the gov ernment are continued in the future, as they have been in the past, there is nodoubt that the republican party had best sit down upon him effectually lofficera, and tor all time to come, for under such condition of affairs as he has been instrumental in bringing about in the present senate, the sooner his political function are at an end, the bet ter it will be for the republican party and the people generally. jne time nas arrived in our coun try's progress when the .people waut the person- w-hom.t he y elect to occupy the important position of president to perform all the duties pertaining to the office as prescribed by the eon. stitmion and laws, and uot be duped or frightened into the practice of using his official position and powers to promote the private schemes of thoi, who may take upon themselves tii" loo often repeated and unwarrant able privilege of dictating terms to tiw detriment ot the public welfare. YAQUiXA BAY, Editors Gazktxe, You say that you wish me to lit you Know now things look at the Bay. First let me sav. ir answering your request, that the Ya quin a road is now in lair or der for traveling, except some abomi nable "chuck-holes" which would be fatal to the comfort of any buggy travellers. Pray use your influence with the Supervisor to have these seen to at once. Half an hour's work on each would fill them up and render the road pleasant going. . On the Keyes' Hdl some. of the planking provided last year lies on the very edge of the worst holes, and five minutes labor would set these ailit here. I rode to Elk City auS li ft my horse there: the next day went on down the Yaqnina in the mail car rier's boat. The steam launch is now running. At Cannon's place, about six miles below Elk City we passed the new quarry. The surface stone has been r moved and used to form a landing right alongside the deep water, so that the scows can take ou their load of stone direct from the quarry. Nothing could turn out bet ter than the quarry has done. Just below the soft surface stonelies a bed many feet thick of bard blue stone that the quarrymen. call "basaltic." The engineers say they might go very far indeed to find rock belter suited to the purpos". Down at Oneatta the work is in full swing. Before you reach the turn in the river you hear the shriek ing of the circular saws as they rasp through the great logs, and the tumult of the hammering and caulk ing on. the scows fills the air. The derrick scow is completed and at woik driving niles to form a dock for the scows to load brush tor the mattress es. The first great scow is completed and will be launched to day. She is a credit both to designers and build ers, for solidity and convenience of construction. She will carry between two and three hundred tons of stone at a time, and will cost under $1400. The timbers tor the second scow are nearly all ready, and those for the two great cribs lie piled up on the wharf ready to be put in their places. There are about 2 hundred cords of brush bound in bundles ready for use piled close by, and a gang of brush- cutters, (amongst whom we saw the genial face of Kit Abbey,) were all hard at work on the hill side close at hand. The best ot brush grows in plenty theres and both Mr. Polhemus and the superintendent and foremen expressed themselves delighted with the material provided by nature tor them. The return of the tug has been ear nestly pressed, and iust as soon as she gets back the work will commence in earnest by sinking the cribs across where the narrow south channel cut through the sand last year. I lie engineers intend to prevent the water hndiiig its way through this channel this season, and they ex pect thus lo preserve at any rate the present depth of water on the bar. They say that nature has done work that would have cost thousands ot dollars: and they are most anxious to lose none of the advantage of it. Mr. Polhemus entirely confirms the depth of 20 feet at the most shal low place when the Gen'l W right lug went out the other day. In or der to prevent any question as to the accuracy, he had the casting line measured before the eyes of the va rious gentlemen present This cast was just at high water. At two hours Hood they found 12 feet at the same shallowest place, and all the rest of the courses much deeper. So far as I am able to judge, there is every reason to believe in the de termination of all tne government of whatever grad , to streicn tne $ou.uuu to its nittest ca pacity. But with all this, the money runs out, so far as I can calculate, at 4nn 1. fTM. i tr ruver -jiuu a uiuinu. a huh oy oep- teni tier all the oU,0UU will be spent. If Judge Moore and his friends can get a special session of Congress call ed, and then get a special appropria tion passed tor this work, they will oejusunea in tne aavice tney give the inhabitants of this valley to trust entirely to congress to get this wok done:, for in that case the work will not have to be stopped. But such a success as that would be, to my mind, the only decent excuse they could offer for the tone taken at the Albany meeting and repeated by Judo-e At present all is life, energy and con fidence: and what is needed to keep all moving on in the same successful groove is so small an effort that he would scarcely feel ,t. It is to the press we all look in these matters, and to a paper with the previous history of the Corvallis. Gazette, Biich a call should not be addressed in vain. Very Respec fully, VV alius Nas us. YAQUKIA BAT. We are in receipt of the following affidavit of Cant. John M. A vies of Benton county anold and experienced seaman. It is in reference to the har bor and bar at Yaanina and will be ot" great interest to - readers. COPY OF AFFIDAVIT. if 'Tie dispatches of the week presents ns with a somber and tragical picture ;. the interior lite-ot the Imperial V'iehold. The Czar, a-self-senten.- d prisoner at the castle of Gotschi m,. is described as in momentary dread o assassination, notwithstanding the i mlti plied and unheard of precautions baffle the murderous-enterprise of in mysterious foe. Surrounded by an army of sentinels, he is haunted by constant suspicions oS'treacheryeven among bis- guard. His- sleeping ehamber is-protected by massive iron an utters,, ana wnen no leaves it, it is by subterranean; passages. Mean time the Empress, warned that she has been secretly doomed to a death more dreadful than, that from which she failed to save So phis Pieoffsky, passes sleepless nights and is subject to the most fearful hysterical seizures. Life under such circumstances mustbe a constant torture. It is doubtful if a more wretched couple could be fouod m all the vast dominions of Alexan der Lll.. Moore in last week's Gazette, But if there is uot the slightest chance of such a miracle being work- ea Dy mem, i should like to know State of Oregon County of EJntoi I. John M. Avles. of Benton roan tv aforesaid, beinff dulv sworn, make oath and say as follows r- 1. I wan at Newport, on Yaqnina Bay,, in Benton county, ot Monday the Uth day of April, 1S81. I found that the Geul W light, U. 8s Govern ment tugboat which came down to Newport from the saw milt at Oneata ta some six miles up the bay. , 2. Hie C aptain and two seaman o the vessel had been; drowned on the previous Thursday in attempting to cross in over the War in a heavy saa a small boat. Being well known to Mr. J. S. Polhemus, the gov rnmeni engineer in charge of the haibo. im provement works at Yaqum he asked me to take charge of ihe ves sel and to take her out to the U. S. coast survey steamer Shubrick, which was lying to off the harbor mouth, waiting to deliyer stores intended for the harbor works. 3. I declined to take charge of the vessel unless he, Mr. Polhemus, went out as pilot, as he was so thoroughly aemiaihfSedt with the bar. This he consented to. and we left the wharf at Newport about 10 o'clock in the morning, it being then nearly high water. There was not much sea on the bar. The lead was hove all the. time that we were Hearing and cross ing the bar. The least water we had was twenty feet and that only at one cast of the lead. 4. We went out with perfect ease at full speed ahead the whole time, and it was about twenty minutes from the lime we left the wharf at New port untill we were over the bar. 5. We proceeded in company with the Shubrick to a position about south east of Cape Foul weather, and about three miles from the bar. Both vessels anchored there and the stores intended for the works were trans ferred from the Shubrick to the Gen'l Wright. 6. We remained at anchor till six o'clock and then proceeded to the mouth of the harbor to ascertain if it wercjpracticable to enter. Finding that it was. Mr. Polhemus decided that he would lake the vessel in. It was now just two hours flood with a good sea running. Ihe lead was kept going the whole time we were near or on the bar. The casts were taken as rapidly as possible and the water shoaled to twelve feet at one cast only, deepening again immediate lv. and this cast was taken in the trosgh of the sea. 7. The channel is clear and well de fined from any position'aloft orj even from the deck ot a moderately higl vessel. The approach is easy and the entrance safe for vessels of any length not exceeding fifteen feet in draught. On a smooth day a vesse drawing seventeen feet could enter al high water. 8. 1 have nad thirty-trve years ex perience at sea as an officer and in command. I commanded clipper ships on long voyages for upwards of fifteen years, and have had ten years experience in steam vessels sailing across the Atlantic, to the West In lies and Gulf of Mexico, and also the Straights of Magellan, and thence through the Smyth's channel, enter ing and anchoring in all the small harbors in those waters. I am also fa miliar with 'most of the eoatt harbo in Australia and New Zealand. 9. Speaking in general terms on the basis of this experience, I consider the harbor at Yaquina, even as it is, perfectly safe for steamers ami for sailing ships with the aid of a tug not drawing more water than above in dicated, to enter at a proper time of tide of course, making dae allowance for the weather. The ofhng is good and vessels having to. wait for the tide can either anchor or stand off and either to the north or south of Cape Foul weather. I consider that the improvement now in progress will begin almost at once to deepen the water on the bar and on completion ot the lettv or Heal Estate fr Sale. CFIY OF CORVALLIS. TWO.
