7 MS WEEKLY NIMUS filZfflE. Corvallis Jan. 27, 1882. 1 PBESETT FROM GES. SHERH.IX. . (Salt '-ake Tribune.) Governor Murray tells a laughable Ftory of liis experience in the Geor gia march to tlie sea, which is worth repealing : "Speaking of the famous march through Georgia," saiil the Governor, "I shall never forget the amount of money it cost u to keep an old wo man from crying herself to death. Of course we were obliged to subsist if the country as we went along and we naturally took the best in sight. One day we took possession of a chicken ranch kept by an old lady, who stood at the front sate with a broom and threatened to lick all of Sherman's forces if they did not move on. Now, chickens were cor hidered as officers' meat, and, as we ori.ro informllv hnncrrv. wp went for those old hens pretty lively.

Act ing on this hint, I proceeded to busi ness. We had captured a confeder ate train the day before, with 4,000, 000 of confederate money, and I hunted up the train at once. The money was worth about two c?nts on the dollar. Well, I stuffed aboil' half a million dollars in an old carpet sack and marched into the house. " 'Madam,' said I, opening the sack, 'I'll give you 50,000 to quit this noise.' It was still as death in a minute, and then her face expanded a oroau smite, i taui me pacKage money on the table, and I never effect pleased m, and I continued : 'General Sherman presents his com pliments and $100,000.' I never in my life saw such a pleased old wo man, and I wound up bv dairpttis . 1- - a 1 .11! 1 a 1 a I it came to contributions to distressed females I could not be outdone by no man living.

The unprecedentedly heavy stream of immigration that has been pouting into the country this year over 430, 000 arrivals in eleven months seems to alarm timid citizens with serious apprehensions as to whether this mass pf humanity, consisting of peo ple wholly unacquainted with Amer ican life, can be safely absorbed by our body politic. It is true, the number of new-comers seems very large, almost sufficient to form three new States out of territory so far un inhabited, were the immigrants all to setrle down together. But the effect produced by the sudden acces sion of a foreign element to our people depends in a great measure upon the proportion it bears to the general population and its distribu tion among the different part3 of the country. From this point of vie it appears that the heavy immigra lion of this year will not put our in stitutions under as severe a strain as they have been put before. We have now.a population of over fifty millions and the number of immi e ranis for the w hole year will be about 440,000. In 1854 the popu lation of i he United States was about 25.000.000. and the number of imtni grants in that year was 319,223, number more than two-thirds large as that of the present year while the aggregate population o the country was only one-half what it now is. V e mnjrht reason ably conclude that the strain upo our institutions from so enormous a influx of foreign elements should have been much arreater then than the one now to be apprehended, and yet we cannot remember that th years following 1854 were remark able for any peculiar development that might have been traced to th difficulty of absorbing so large a new ingredient in our body politic.

'Sarah,' said he, 'where in blazes did yon get all this darned truck?' ":A present from General Sher man,' said she. " 'Taint worth a continental cent ; they're kindling fires with it down at New Orleans.' "The old woman rose up, her face as white as your hirt front, and her eyes wasn't pleasant to meet. " 'So you are the bilk that gave me Ibis, are yon?' she called out, reach-; ing tor the o!) broom. "The entire mess rose aud started from that house. We never heard any more of her, and there isn't a man of the crowd who wo-.ild meet that old woman for all that confedei ate money, it it would bring 100 cents on the dollar at the Treasjrv Department at Washington."

Moretha one-third of them were Germans mostly belonging to the agrieultu ral classes, who proverbially mak good citizens and are easily assimi lated. Immigrants from Great Britain, mostly Irishmen, come next forming something less than one third of the aggregate, a valuable addition lo our working forces. Norway. Sweden and Denmark furnish the next largest contingent about one-eighth of the whole, and the rest is divided among other na tionalities. On the whole, we need indulge in no dark apprehensions as to the in fluence of immigration upon our po litical ami social lite unless laige masses of the less desirable elements of it should congregate in cert ail laige cities. In this respect, the statement that 143,132 of the new comers have remained in New York would seem to indicate that such r concentration has taken place. But Mr. Jackson, the Superintendent of Castle Garden, assures us that this statement is apt to create a wrong impression, "owing to the fact that many immigrants who had not fixed upon any destination were credited to New York, but remained only ong enougri to decide upon a per manent home; that some immigrants refused to give their destination and were put down to New York's ac count, as that was their address when last heard from," and that "not more than 35,000 or 40,000 will find permanent homes in this State besides the 15,000 or 20,000 who will settle down in this city." New York would therefore only have her pro portionate share and no more. The bulk of the immigration is going to the West, where it will soon become identified with new and growing communities, whose interests the new comers will soon understand and whose progress anil prosperity they will share. It is a fact worthy of note that the north-western States, which receive among their people the laigest proportionate number of foreign immigrants, take rank among the orderliesl of American communi ties. Judging from the experiences of the pasf, it may therefore be con fidently said that, leaving aside two or three large cities, the difficult' of absorbing and assimilating our foreign immigration is not one of the future dangers that should d-eturb our equanimity. N. Y. Post. Land Sold. In Whitman county originally 1 . jtmSOO lanrls. of whii there was P. rlv The following circular has been recently issued by the above named league. rm t a - -ims jjeagne lias made some additions to its declarations, an amended copy of which, as they appear on the heading of our mem bership rolls, we send herewith. The clause referring to "a free press" i so strikingly illustrated by a cartoon which appeared almost simultaneous ly in the new illustrated paper 7i Judge, that we induced the publish ers to furnish some of them separate I, without colors, and we send you f .1 I a one oi inese, willed we trust you will post up in a conspicuous place. It is evident that the monopolists have determined not only lo contro the Government, but the thought of the people as well. Senator Windom in a letter to the League says: 'The channels of thought and the channels of commerce thus owned and controlled by one man, or by a few men, what is to restrain corpo rate power, or to hx a limit to its exactions upon the people ? What is then- to hinder these men from de pressing or infialing the value of all kinds of property to suit their caprice avarice, and thereby gathering into i heir own coffers the wealth of the nation? Where U llje limit to such a power as this? What shall be said of the fpirit of a free people who will submit without a protest to be thus bound hand and foot ?" Tue following extract from a letter written by Hon. David Davis, once a judge of the Supreme Court, now a Senator of the United States, indicates the serious nature of the problem before us: "The rapid growth of corporate power and the malign influence which it exerts by combination of the Na tional and State Legislatures, is a well grounded cause of alarm. A struggle is pending in the near future between this overgrown power, with its vast, ramifications all over the LTnion, and a hard grip on much of the political machinery, on-the one hand, and the people in an unorgan ized condition on the other, for con trol of the Government. It will be watched by every patriot with in tense anxiety." There are two things which can not be done too quickly: 1st. Let the people supporl the papers which advocate their interest, and leave those se erely alone wlii. h are run in the interest of the monopo lists. 2nd. Establish a postal telegrapl which will serve the press and al other enstomers fairly and cheaply besides extending electric oommutii cation to every post office in tin land. In England both the telegrapl and telephone are operated by tin I ostal Department, and as a conse quence the people have the benefits and not the co.po rat ions. 4 lit Ki EI DIRECTOR!'.

The great difference among men of nil callings is energy of character or th want of it. Given the same amount of learning and integrity, and the same opportunities, and energy will make one man a conqueror. The want of it will see the other a failure. Dead beats are all'aien without force. They had as good a chance as any of their companions. Others went ahead and carried off the prizes, while they were lying by the wayside dispirited and despondent. It takes nerve, vim, per severance and patient continuance in well doing, to win a great prize. And the young man who goes into a profes sion without this pluck and force will not earn salt to his porridge. He will drag along through life with the help of friends' getting some credit with them for being a well meaning man, in deli cate health and unlucky. The real trouble is, he lacks energy. All the ning in the world will not qualify a man for usefullness. It re quires pusn, stamina, vigor, will, courage resolution, determination in one word energy. N. Y. Observer. Oregon Claims.
