Independence, Oregon, December 13, 1670
Both mynelf and wife have been for some
years afflicted with disease of the Kidneys,
and had tried many remedies without ob.
taining any permanent relief. About three
mouths ato we were induced to try a pack-
apparently entirely teured both of ns, as
since taking it two weeks we nave leil no
symptoms of the disease. We can heartily
recoinrrrtud it to others similarly atOcted, as
we believe it will do all that is clairied for
it. M. L. WHITE.
Astoria, Oregon, December 28, 1S79.
I take ivei.t pleasure iu testifying to the
the pnst three years I have been suffering
from Aidney troubles, and (luring ine lime
have tried nearly every kind of kidney med
icine in the market, almost without any re
lief. Having heard (hut the Oregon Kidney
Tea possessed wnndnrful properties, I pur
chased a package and from tiie tint dose 'ob
tained relief, ami by the use of the one pack
sue feel completely cured.

Jupiter is evening atar, aay the

toward perihelion and opposition con

proach of this gruat planet to the aun

Hoods, cyclones and tornadoes have been
of almost daily occurrence, as reported
on weather records; a wave of intense
heat has been followed by a cold snap,
when tires were comfortable, frost lay
on the lowluuds of Massachusetts, snow
fell on the Catsk ills, and ice and snow

their perihelion in 1884, giving promise
of a respite before they take their turn
pulling with one accord upon the sun.
Jupiter rises now about 10 o'clock; at
the end of the month alwut 8 o'clock.
Half an hour later Saturn will appear
following close in the wake of the more
brilliant Jupiter. The two planots re
tain nearly the same position in regard
to each other throughout the month,
though Jupiter moves a little faster
towards the south, thus widening
slightly the distanco between them.
Mercury is morning star after the 5th,
when he comes into inferior conjunc
tion with the sun passing between the
earth and tho sun and reappoaring on
his weNtern side to play his short role
of morning star He reaches his great
est western elongation on the 2slt, and
his perihelion on the 29th. He sets
now a few minutes after 7, nearly with
the sun, at the end of the month ho
rises a few minutes after 4. Veuus is
evening, and hugs the aun too closely
to be seen in the early part of the
month, setting then about 20 minutes
after the sun. But towards the close
of the month, bright-eyed observers
may detect her beaming presence for
nearly a half hour past sunset, and
next month she will be glorious to be
hold. She may bo looked for about
degrees south of the point of sunset,
rising now a few minutes later than
half-past 7, at the end of the month
a few minutes after 7. Mars is even
ing star and may be seen during the
early portion of tho month, though so
far away and so near the sun that he
will be lost to view. On the 20th there
is a close conjunction between Uranus
and Venus, the planets being 45 min
utes of a degree apart 1 he phenom
enon will alford a lino opportunity to
the telescopic student for a study of the
contrast in planetary colors, the deli
cate tints of Uranus and the inimitable
soft golden hue of Venus being beauti
fully illustrated. Uranus sets now
about half-pait eight, at the end of the
month about sunset Among note
worthy events during the month the
6rst in irnporto:icS will be the contin
ued study of elemental disturtance in
torrential territories ill connection with
sun spots and the grand pull which the
mighty Jupiter is exerting upon the
great center of light and life. It will
be well to remember, that his moss
greatly exceeds that of all the other
planets combined, and that the differ
ence between his equatorial and polar
diameter is 5,000 miles or more than
half the whole diameter of the globe.

From the Tallahassee Patriet
On Sunday night, week ago, a
large, bright light was seen iu a south
easterly direction from this city, which
attracted the attention of many of our
citizens at first, but concluding that it
was a hotse ou fire, they thought but
little more of the matter until the light
reappeared Aeveral succeeding nights in
the same place, and put them to think
ingagain. Itismuch bnghtersome nights
than otTlers,' sometimes hating' the apki
pearance of the moon rising, but gener
ally much brighter and looking moro
like a largo fire shooting its flaming
tongues nigh up into the upper realms,
frequently reflected back by passing
clouds. During the past week we have
conversed with soveral parties living
in that direction, all of whom had no
ticed the light, and located it in tho
great swamp southeast of here, on the
gulf coast, and about the same spot
from whence the much talked of col
umn of black smoke has bettt seen to
issue for years, supposed to be ft volca
no, which no living man has eVer beorr
able to reach, by the fact of its being
surrounded by an impenetrable swamp.
We were told last Tuesday by a gentle
man living in Wakula County, near
this noted swamp, that the light crea
ted much excitement in his neighbor
hood, as a loud rumbling noise was fre
quently heard in the direction of it dur
ing the week. The noise was said to
bo so loud on Thursday, about midnight
as to arouso the sleeping family of Mr.
Frank Duggle, and cause them to get
up and run out of doors, thinking
another earthquake was on hand.
