X. ClJICIlIi:. From Ellstrrtl On g n JIavville. Wasco Co., Or., F. Lrunry 14, ISSj ) Editor Guard: I havo during the past few wppIsh rocfivrd wveral lfttcrs from relations and friondti in your section of the country asking as regards the condition of things after the Win tpr. Togivp all my friend nn answer I will state the following: Until the 14th of DncmhrT thn weather was as nice as could Wo wished for Ly anyone. On the 5th the tir.it snow of the neason fdl, covering thn gronnd to the- depth of an inch, which lay on until tho lflth when it begun to snow acain, and on th 17th the general depth of snow was thirty inches. We had a little rain on Dec 20th which wns followed Ly a frost and formed a crust an inch in thick neaa on kop of the bnow, For several day following snow fell every day, more or less, and to the best of knowl' edge tho deepest snow was 34 inches on a level. On an avenge the mercury stood fifteen degrees lielow zero. Tlie coldest day was Dec 18th, when the mercury dropped to 18 below zero. A Chinook wind commenced to Mow Jan 5th and the snow melted rapidly, mid in about ten days our grassy hills could he seen once more. We havo had two or three light falls of snow since the storm, ut they were of little consequence. Stock as a rule did well, with the exception of sheep. The cattle nnd torses 011 the range- did well nnd the oks will not exceed 5 per cent. The stock that were drove from your valley lere have done well, hut of course they were fed, otherwise they would havo died, A great many of the sheep men are looking quite Mue, their loss heing yery heavy. Ilea who had their sheep at home lost hut few, hut sheep that were where feed could not he had fared hadly. The loss is about 50 per cent, and those that did live aie nearly des titute of wopl. In this locality there are. several who are cilled "Wi bfeet." Some of them have lost their "webs," and such could he seen walkiii" and riding around during the coldest weather us if it were a day in June. Those who have not lost the "weh" were afraid of sinking i'l the snow, or that it might l.e chilled hy the biting frost, and therefore re. maincd as near the lire as possible- rm .11 , . inese tenner lew are niaKing prepara tions to go hack mid make the Wil lamette Valley their home for life. Our country is undergoing a rapid change; farmers are all busy fencing and plowing. The Lest laud will he all fenced up inside of six months. There is very good land still vacant that would make good home for many families that have poor ones in your vallny. We cordially invite all enter prising young men, and old ones too, to come and join us, but I would say that thero are enough bachelors here now, and young men who intend coming here will do well to take unto themselves a wife before mi'Tatins. The prospects cf our farmers are quite bright Fall sown grain looks well, and everything bids fair for a bright fuiuro for the bunch grass. Our town, Mayviile, is yet in its infancy; it is only about right months since it was named. We have a store, saloon, blacksmith shop, and Mr. Tom MooTe will start a now blacksmith shop soon, which will be a great accommoda tion loour farmers and stockmen. There is a broad field for an enterprising merchant in Mayville, and 1 am satisfied that a good live man would do well. Our neighborhood is as quiet and friendly as cnuld be wished for. We are aliout to have a fino two story frame school house erected. Not wishing to intrude upon your valuable Rpace further, I am Very respectfully, iSl'RSCRIBER. Hie Tub, Oct.

In the course of a brief address Mr. Carnegie nade this remarkable" allufion: "If we consider the military profession we find that the physician is the opposite of the soldier;, lie lives? to kill, you live to save. You all read the other week r f a mart who likod the sport of man killing so' well that he could not rest at home in peace, Itft ran to Egypt in pursuit of his favorite sport. Inr time camo tho turn of tho irave savages and they killed him. The cable inform us that 'he died like a true British bulldog.' He did in deed. Having lived a bulldog's life it was fitting ho should die' the death of a dog, and I beg the pardon of a dog: The hero of barbarism is the man who braves danger to destroy; the hero of barbarism is the man. who braves dan ger to save." The young ' doctors and the audience cheered Mr. Carnegie's remarks. 4 . Two thousand horned toads were shipped to China last season by celestial sojourning m California!
