ORNITHOLOGY.
It will be remembered that Rev. P. S.
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

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.

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.

A citizen of the lower part of the county
learned that there was a registered letter at

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

over those nine miles.

The preservation of health and life is de

cause of weakness of tho generative organs
or their uses is a direct attack upon the
general health as well as a sure destruction

the other. Iv Yorrrn is laid the foundation
of much of the misery of after years by the
indulgence of the most desthcctivk or

weakness and ruin among mankind, for it
is a well known fact that V r- Uululgence in
solitary vice, even in the slightest degTee,
