Knight, of Salem, has spent much time in the study of this subject. He has now at the Grove a fine and large collection of specimens to illustrate his lectures there, the prceeeds of which aid in purchasing Mr. Knight's cabinet , for the University. The following is a summary of his remarks on December 1st. It ifi eipected that the first lecture will be general and introductory. Excepting this one the lectures were originally prepared for my children and a few neighbors; (and I wish the front seats, to-morrow night, to be occupied by the children; rs trey will be interested.) So far as the general spirit of the whole question is concerned it is my de sire to follow and lead you in accordance with, a text from Bryant: "To him who, "in the love of Nature, Holds communion "with her visible Forms, she speaks a various Language." He who would enjoy the pleasures of Paris or Japan must learn the languages there, in order to commune with the people. So we learn the language of Nature, which treats of rocks, rivers, hills, and stars, that we niay love nature, for without communion there is no love ; that wo may comprehend beauty in its variousness; and for the joy and help that nature gives, I exceedingly dislike the term "Natural History" as ap plied to my studies. It denotes what is written in books a mere string of stories and anecdotes about this and that in Na ture; telling what nature has done rather than what she is. Some great pai t of such books is written to glorify authors and for the mystification of the students and subject. The real history of a people is not that of their bloody deeds and pomp ous heroes. True history is a full under standing of their daily life and details. Nor is Natural science my province; for knowl edge is more accurate iii it than I, a seeker, make it here, call my pursuit, if it must h ivj a name, ' Rebellion studies in nature." Thus I am free to say just what I please and leave unsaid what I am Ignor-mt of. It may be asked "What is the practical advantage of them to p o; Inhere?" Is there nothing valuable but that which re lates to money? Life is made up of some-thing more. Real growth is into manhood. How many busi ness men in Forest Grove Grove use Alge bra; or in Portland what number employ all their College studies? Tho light of na ture is all before us; aiding the polititian; giving to a physician knowledge of kindred subjects to his own; a field whence clergy men niay draw illustrations of harmony and mercy. Each one's education is incomplete without a knowledge of nature. Practically such study tends (1st) to form habits of very c .reful observation. Differences btf een species and genera require close attention. 2d. It deals ia comparison vFor of them time life is made up and truths are deduced. A man in the habit of comparing facts will generally place tilings where they belong. He must be orderly and careful in his life as well as kind to tho lower animals. He will have broad and liberal views of crea tion, of God, and of Duty; just as the thoughts of linguists. Travelers and gener al observers are increased, the study of nature opens a new world of ideas, point ing out the real difference between well known creatures. And 3d. It is a cure for selfishness; by bringing ns into sympathy with surroundings. Looking to God, and upon his works, seeing how generously are scattered the bounties of creation. Darwin has indeed aided by his great searchings. This study comes down to tho practical ideas of the farmer. There are but few men now but who know of the grasshop per seourfre lnw to abate it; yet in tho fu ture tiaie it may be that facts in nature will guide our legislators in these things; and men be elected who know the need of game laws and their intention. Tliis recreation is innocent and it rest3 and recuperates th; student. Every cne needs it for its wealth of illustration and the satisfaction it afford . This insight is the step be tween the drudgery and the poetry of life. There itre facts lurking beneath its names. O'rus and enrms. Latin names for crane and crow were doubtless suggested by the cry of those birds; just as the word water is an ex act imitation of the Found of a running brook. Reverently we say it that tho Lord is our great object lesson, showisg ns how to instruct by representing to the taste, ear, and sight; leading away from ths al straction of book knowledge and controver sies of words, to the power of facts; and to conclude from the dominion of God of his nfinite love and wisdom. There are two cautions to those alont to investigate: Avoid a dogmatic spirit; a theory you base upon a few facts may be overturned by more complete investigation. Darwin was free from dogmatic conviction; he that could say, "I said so in such a place but now I see I was egregiously mis taken." Guard against mere curiosity and disgust for common things in Nature, Jyr sus Naturae are suited to State Fairs. Study the subjects near your school house, aton, your home, in your door-yard. Examine denizens of your own forest. There is a great, grand field for sudy and pleasure. This plsasing entertainment was enliv ened with music by Mr. Harris and Miss Bowlby. Many of tho students form a class for the daily discussion cf Ornithology, as illustrated by the lectures. Ae Em E. nrMcMnrray Oysters, 23 cts. a can at the Post Office. Farm ingt on Items: Dec. C, 1873. The river has overflowed its banks and crossing is impossible. We have to travel about 12 miles to get to Hillsboro now, whereas before high water we could get there in six. The roads are yery bad. Some dogs in this section have been kill ing a lot of sheep. The fanners turned out with their guns the other day and the result was 4 dogs before breakfast. Mr. J . Bennet drove his wagon on the ferry boat at Portland recently when the horses backed off upsetting the wagon and throwing his wife and daughter out. For tunately they were not hurt seriously. Vplcax. Wb understand that the Grange Market in Portland in which a good many people in this county are interested has sold out and is closing up its business. Dted. Sarah Henrietta, aged fourteen months, youngest daughter of B. Scholfield, died Tuesday of congestion of x e brain. Corifelim Items: The concert last Wednesday evening was a pleasant entertainment and proved remT nerative to the S. S. If I had time I would be glad to give you a synopsis of each play, s uffice it to say it gave general satisfaction to all that were present. At a ''spelling school" given at the Acad emy one evening not long since, Miss Porter the Centerville.martn carried off the Web ster's dictionary offered as a prize, but Miss F. Cornelius came off champion when spell ing for the championship. All the members of the Farmers' Club took pctlve part last Saturday in their meet ! irig discussing the question, "Does wheat turn into smut." While a part elaborately defended the affirmative, tho negative was with equal animation upheld. Strange to say no one present had his previous views changed, while some were sure if would do so, others were positive that it would not. It was moved to discuss the same question at the next meeting, when one gentleman arose and declare 1 tho qu stion too absurd for further discussion and said, 'every per son with common sense ought to know it does not" and then arose a gentleman of the opposite opinion and thought any person that declared it did not was too far behind the times to be convinced of anything; one fellow however, that had lived in a country where they had no chess, was astraddle of the fence. School closed its fall term last Friday, but will commence again to day with W. H. Parker principal again, and Miss Emma Smith as assistant. Seventy scholars were enrolled last quarter with an average at tendance of about r0, Two belligerently disposed fellows of our town had an altercation last Thursday even ing, and I understand one person had his optics ornamented, while the other knows how an empty tumbler feels when it hits him on the stomach. (How when the tumbler is full and has a rye straw in it Ed.) Some hoodlums lsst Wednesday night pa raded the streets and sang vulgar songs and otherwise conducted themselves obnoxious. , Should a repetition of the offense be cjiii mitted they will have to suffer the extreme penalty of the law. The Golden Rule was resuscitated last I'ri day evening, and the propositions of 11 la dies and 10 gentlemen were read. I learn that several more of the most prominent citizens of the town anticipate making appli cation at tho next regular meeting. Quite a number of Good Templars flew off the handle a short time since and with drew. The Lodge is rather thin at present but is firm nevertheress. The Odd Follows here are in a flourishing condition; They number 40 members, are well fixed financially and own a cemetery lot about half a mile north of town, which they have have had platted and each lot numlered, and each meraWr has his own number. They will have it cleared off this winter and fenced next spring. The continued rains have made our roads in a most horrible condition. The chances are that some of the beaver-dam farmers will loose their carrots and potatoes. But few jw-rsnn here were prepared f.r the rain No wood up, gardens not gathered, bay cot hauled, etc. Several immigrant families past through on tl e cars last week and wanted to stop in our town this winter and send to school, but there were no vacant houses. Our minister Rev. Mr. Elliott has gone to La Grande on business to remaiu about 3 months and Rev. Wm. E. Smith is filling Lis place in the meantime. Onr Sunday School, and prayer meetings are Well attended ami much life and "spirit' are manifested in them.

Dill-y Items; Our School tender. Miss Eliza Brown of Forest Grove, is drilling her scholars for an exhibition which is set for Friday evening Dec. 10, at the Dillcy school house, htch is tho last day of the three months school. We hope the weather will be fine so all the peoplo can come out and see their children perform their several parts iu the exhibi tion. Elder Bullock 1ms been confined to the house v :th rheumatism for a month. Wil liam" Johnson is sick. Joe Stewart's hand which he hurt in a threshing machine in the full has taken with the erysipelas which has run np to his head and his face is so badly swollen that he can scarcely see. The rain full in the two months past ex ceeds anything iu the remembrance of ell the old settlers in the neighlorhood. Om ri Parsrms says he ha1 seen the river a few inches higher at the mill. Ross Welch keep a iding t his barn, lie has a 12 foot shed on both sides of it now and the whole is indeed with a high fence to keep his chickens at home. lie proposes to go into the dairy business soon. II O Hyde is having an empty house fit ted up for parties expected bre soon. II Hall is visiting his friends In this conn- G. W. Scoggin i Co., are contemplating building a large machine and blackfmith shop frlx-jG and 16 feet high, in this place. It will be a two story fliop. They propose manufacturing agricultural implements, buggies, wagons, plows, harrows, horse rakes, etc, etc. K. Y. Z. Large Spcps. Mr. tl. Wooley who lives near Hillsboro has placed on our table five fine potatoes ef the pinkeye variety. The largest one weighs two pounds and seven ounces, and the least one weighed over a pound. The whole five weighed seven pounds and ten ounces. Thesf potatoes were raised on common fern up-land that has been grown to potatoes ever since '49. This proves that if proper cultivation' is used that potatoes can be successfully grown on lhe same land for a number of years without change of crop. A large proportion of these potatoes weigh a pound each, and the amount of manure used Mr. W. tells us was not large. Ass tcxT.-Wednesday of last week the case of the State of Oregon vs Leroy Holcomb for assault and battery was brought before Jus tice Cave; action dismissed. Subscribe for your local payer.' Butte Precinct Items;. A citizen of the lower part of the county learned that there was a registered letter at a certain postofficc, some nine miles from his place of residence. It was raining ter ribly at the time, but nothirg t!r.t!nied, the old man saddled the old mare and struck out for tho valuable package at the P. O. He arrived on time, receipted for said pack age with a nervous and cold hand, and up on opening the wrapper, judge of his sur prise when he found that he had received an appointment from the Hon. Judge Arch bold for Road Supervisor of his district. The 6tate of his mind on the boirie-stretch is better imagined than described; he could not tell whether the roads were good or bad over those nine miles. Rev. John Yickser of the Baptist church has been holding a protracted meeting at the Butte School house. A. A. Durham is putting new machinery in his saw mill on Fanno creek, also a new wheel for his grist mill, and will do first class work. Three average-sized turnips from a patch raised this year by Miles Davis In this precinct weighed all together 53J pounds. The first one was 3 feet and 3 inches in cir cumference and 1 foot in diameter and weighed 23 lbs., tho 2d 10',, the third 13 lbs. They were raised on up-land and the seed was sown about the 1st of July. You gave notice last week of the death of Francis M., son of Miles Davis, at Lafayette on the 21th of Nov. His body was brought down to Beaverton on the cars last Thurs day and was buried in tho neighborhood graveyard. He was an industrious and virtuous young man and his death is not only a hard visitation to his aged parents but is mourned by many friends.

An Experiment.--Mr. John Fuller of Ce dar Creek, so Mr. Morgan informs its, has sown some onion seed this fall on beaver dam land as an experiment. The water is now about seven feet deep over the onion patch. We shall lock with interest to the termination of this exieriment.

YOUNG MEDICAL AND SURGICAL INSTITUTE still offers to the afflicted absolute cure iu all cases of SEMINAL WEAKNESS. The preservation of health and life is de pendent upon the proper condition of the procreative functions and any weakness or cause of weakness of tho generative organs or their uses is a direct attack upon the general health as well as a sure destruction if not properly cured of tho crgaus that are the pride of one sex and tho blessing of the other. Iv Yorrrn is laid the foundation of much of the misery of after years by the indulgence of the most desthcctivk or habits making life a curse and spreading weakness and ruin among mankind, for it is a well known fact that V r- Uululgence in solitary vice, even in the slightest degTee, plant setd.1 of weakness in the system that grow to a liarvtst of disease, sorroie and shame in after years.

Among the most subtle and virulent of loisons in the human blood is that arising from Yeneral Taint often breaking out, af ter years of apparent cure, iu hideous sores nion various pai s of the Ixtdy. Its great danger lies in the fact that it is given to the innocent partner or to tho unborn child without shov.ing in the person originally contracting it. THE USE (tF MERCURY only ait in this terrible deception by dry ing it upon the surface and driving it back into the blood. All Venekeal Posion is a ILOOD POSION AND CAN COMMUNICATED IN the blood and the only certainty of pieven tion of transmission is in the positive Jcures of the reform tnalment practiced at the Dr. J.
