County Central Com. llll A Road Controversy. The Grove people are excited about a petition for a road to the station. A petition and remonstran ces have been numerously signed and filed.

SzbilplJSupt., has been visiting the schools in" eouDty during the past week. We hope the Professor will give us a report of the condition of each school be has -visited soon for publication. It is estimated that there were 20,000 people attended the celebra fion in Portland on the Fourth. Gaston: July 9th, 187G. Since the last report from this place several items of some local in terest have transpired. Last week the ladies connected with the Sunday school here got up a festival to aid in purchasing an or gan for the Sunday school. The ware-house was transformed into al most a fairy palace with flowers wreaths and evergreens, and altho' the night was rainy a goodly number attended. The "neck-ties" were all sold and the boys and girls, old mat rous and gnts, paired off in the od dest manner, to the infinite amuse ment of all. Everybody enjoyed themselves. The supper was superb, and the proceeds something over $30. Gaston's big ditch on Wappato Lake is now so far completed as to take the raging Tualatin in a straight line across the bottoms on its new route, and thus relieving the Lake of the back water at its outlet. The Lake is now fast emptying itself, in fact the bottom is literally knocked out of it. The ditch is one mile and and a half in length, forty feet wide, ten feet deep in some places, and being cut through heavy ash timber nearly all of the way, the expense has been large, and the out lay of cost has been quite a help to the circulating medium of the neigh borhood. The ditch is considered a success. The Fourth of Jul was celebrated here with much spirit and pleasure to all. The committee of arrange- nienta left no ftono unturned, and succeeded iu pleasing everybody, which can't alwavs be said. The barbecue, presided over by Almoran Hill, was the grand feature of the public diuner, which was most sumpt uous and enjoyable. There were people enough to fill both sides of a table nearly 400 feet in length, if alj had eaten at once, and what was bet ter there was a splendid dinner for all with lemonade bv the barrel and not a cent to pay for anything. Wappato can beat the world when she tries, and she spread it on this tune. John W. Sappington was marshal of the day and performed his part admirably. Sanford Wilcox cox covered himself with glory, res surecting a fiery old Revolutionary Fourth of July ong and with the help of some ladies sa ig it in admi rable style to the dashing old tune of 'Rosin the l:ow." They also sang "America," and some other pieces with great spirit. The Declaration was read in an excellent manner by Mr. Marston, and the oration was delivered by Mr. Gaston. His address ivas no applauded and well received as to secure for it an unan imous request for its publication in the Independent. Rev. Walker act ed as chaplain, and a goodly num ber of other Grove people wero on hand. Altogether it is pronounced the most eujoyable celebration in these parts. Iu the evening the young folks "tripped the light fantastic toe," commencing at two o'clock in the p. m. and fighting it through on that line to 5 a. m. of July 5th. How is that for high? Never bet against Wapjiato. Tillamook. We have received a letter from Tillamook, which, as the writer is mistaken in the man, we need not publish. It seems that several boys from the Grove went over to Tilla mook lately and one of them victim ized our correspondent by passing himself off for "Toots," our funny Grove correspondent, and our Till i naook friend wrote the young man up. Spree at a Party. At a dancing party at the house of Mr. Garwood near Cornelius a fort night since some of the boys got gloriously drunk. Two young men undertook to run the affair, Lot wGre uncermoniously knocked down and dragged out. One of them lay dead drunk at the door outside nearly all night. Com. On Historical Sketch. Editor Independent: In accordance with a resolution passed at meeting held on the Hillsboro Park, July 4th, 1876, I hereby appoint a committee to prepare a History of Washington Cennty, Oregon for publication. Said committee to consist of Hon. T. H. Cornelius, Hon. T D. Humphreys, Kev. J. 8. Griffin, Dr. Win. Geiger and Ira E. Pnrdin jr. H. B. MORGAN, Chairm an. Jumped The Track. Last Thursday morning as the train came down a box car jumped off of the track and ran on the ties for a quarter of a mile doing no oth er damage than cutting up the ties considerably. 'Ten Nights in a Bar-Rom" at Col umbia Academy Music Fit for the Gods The Ubiquitous Hood lumA Large Crowd. ConNELius,; July 5th, 1876. Editor Independent: Saturday night, July 2nd, the great temperance drama "Ten Nights in a Bar-room," was performed at Columbia Academy before an audi ence of from 200 to 240 persons. Your correspondent arrived in good season and after a "two-bit ante" was admitted. Mr. Fanning in a few words sta ted the programme and tben intro duced Miss E. C. Smith of Corne lius, who sang her favorite, and laugh-provoking song, entitled "The Church Organ," in good style. Af ter which the lit tie Misses Scholfield, three in number, sang the popular temperance song, "Come Home, Father," and though they seemed embarrassed by the large audience, did well. The Forest Grove string-band led by Prof. Harris the most pop ular feature of the entertainment--then rendered several soul-stirring pieces Miss Watt presiding at the organ which was listen'd to with an interest which showed that their ex cellent music was more than appre ciated. The play was then put upon the stage, and to describe every act would be folly, as well as an impo sition on your space. The play I ow ever, was not without its defects, though several of the characters were well sustained, and taking into con sideration the fact that perfection cannot be expected from amateurs, the drama wsis fairly acted. The order maintained during the entertainment cannot be extolled. Several portnblo gin-mills were in attendance who much annoyed the audience and actors by loud and ob scene talking, and silly comments during the enactment of the most solemn scenes. And in a mild cen sure of the management, 1 will say, that no effort was made to check this untimely display of hoodlum ism. The proceeds derived from the entertainment must have amounted to 40, which amount was ajplied on expenses. The music, I will again add, was most excellent and was alono worth the price of admission, and wa giv en gratis. The entertainment closed at mid night, GlUMES The Grove: Dr. W. H. Savior who has been at tending Bellevue Medical College at New York during the past voir re turned last week and is enjoying himself with his fiends here. Ira I'm din jr., returned from hfs visit East and to the Centennial Ex position two weks ago. Arvid Ilinman and Miss Flora Smith both of this place were mar lied at the Cong, ch., in this place by IJev. Elliott on Sunday cvrning July 2d. The house was crowded. The handsome young couple passed quietly up one aisle in front of tl e pulpit where the knot was tied in a handsome manner and then passed down and out through another aisle. A. S. Watt's resideuce was hand somely decorated with tlags on the 4th. Captain Lambson furnished several ot the tlags which were cap tured by his own hand in several en gagements in the Rebellion. The Grove sent out two excur sions, one to Patton's valley and an other to Gales' Creek. All had a jolly good time. Arvid Hinman and his 3'oung bride hd the;r infair part- at Hon. A. Hinman's residence Monday eve ning. From 75 to 100 people were present and the affair was the best ever had here. A fronting party on Gale's Creek caught 300 trout last week. It vim Jerome Porter's mother who ar rived from AViscousiu instead of Jerome himself as it appeared in my Utter in last week's Independent. Two Germans died at Block's place re cently, being the parents of the Catholic priest at thit place. A lawsuit is being tried here to-day. The suit is brought by Thatcher to restrain n Frenchman from using the water in a branch running through their respective farms. Tonjjue and Hundley, your two At torneys, are here attending to the cane. W. D, Hoxter is going to ship a car load of 75,000 shingles to St. Joe next weak. V, D. Hoxter has movil iuto his new house. The hoase is the finest in town and is situated among some handsome oak trees being a rery beautiful site for a resi dence. The arrangement of the house wni planned by Mrs. Hoxter and of course is a model for order and omniodiousness. Hoxter is a very successful merchant and is doing a large business. The party that went to Tillamook recent ly returned disgusted. They did not stay but one day. Dr. York, a liberal lecturer, will lecture at the district school honse in this place on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings next instant. A. Hinman's trade is increasing. Toots. GLENC0E ON THE WAR-PATH. To the Point Spicy, Sarcastic and Caustic. Glencoe, July 5, 187G. Editor Independent: I want to say to "Observer," be he he, she or it, that his two letters to the Independent headed "Glenco cn a bust" and "Mountain Dale and Glencoe" are a tissue of falsehoods from first to last. Calico. Glencoe: July, 5. 187G. Editor Independent: Among the many truths published in j'our paper from Glencoe corres pondents, several falsehoods crept in, whether by mistake, deceit, guile or an "emotional" desire to lie I know not. For instance, when it said that Chorister Dole was defeated in the S. S. election it should have read Chorister Parker. "A Specta tor" says that Mr. Dole and his fam ily leit before the close of the servi ces, hinting that they left because they were dissatisfied with the elec tion. The truth is that Mr. F. J. Hoover was returning home from a neighbor's by the school house where the S. S. was in session, with his team aud peisuadetl his wife and the Dole family to ride home as it wa quite warm. If Mr. Dole had been mad about the election he would not have returned, whereas he has attended the services regular lj As to "Spectator's" statement that Mrs. F. J. Hoover tried to hire the teacher not to whip her child ren, that is a flat falsehood. The statement that Mrs. Hoover called the teacher names is another, and the assertion that Mr. Dole took the floor in presence of one of the Di rectors and abused and called the teacher names is another, and that Mr. Dole broke the lock of tho li brary desk is another. Punctual. Remarks By the Editor. We hope now that that the above correspondents having had their say time about as to the school difficul ties in Glencoe will drop the contro versy. Egypt. July 8, 17G, I suppose a report of pii-nie is in ord?r so I shall fiive you a few items. A few of the first families of the fjrove and "Eypt" combined to hav a private picnic not large but select, and met ii;t;,lea!-Ie to itpivoint ineut near the icsideiiec of John 15. I'rick ttto, Esq., at the fiM)t of Gales lVak, on the morning of the Fourth. When all had as sembled we proceeded to the f'.tnitd that had been prepared nv H Wiutiful nioun tain stream that came dashing mid s lash ing from the everlasting hills (everlasting V ills is good for the Fomlh). We were pre ceded by two tla's, sjmlols of our national greatness "see the IJird of Pit e.lont hoar; M-e'im soar." Well, nn J wni tayiii;;, we had a spleiided lunch. Wit and mirth ruled the hour, ami a'd went inert y as a nianiae bell (orglnal). Iu tne evening were paired to the house near by and had a delightful time tripping the li'ht fa vt as tic toe (ditto). The lovely and accomplished M sses 1. II. and It. were the belles of tho evening and divi ded the attentions of tho one -li;ble young gentleman so completely that for hours wo feared for his reason. L.ttest accounts give strong hope of his recovery. With this t-j-reptton there was nothing to mar the pleas ures of the day und closing at an early hour we were all at home and sleeping the sleep of the just by midnight which was letter than most pleasure seekers can s."y of their Fourth. We were all so well pleaded with the place, that when tho next Centennial comes round (It will bo tropical weather about that that time En.) we are all going tip there to stay a week, and take our moth ers along. We have christened it Sylvan Vale. If it had not been so very warm we would have prclnged our pleasure by going to the tops of Gales Peak. Even been there Mr. DJitor? Magnif)cieut view. Sauk. Sheep Killed. Last Thursday night the errs killed four sheep on the track oppos ite Z. Wood's farm near this plnce. P. G. Buford of Forest Grove was elected one of the Vice-Pres-dents of the Liberal society organ ized at Portland last week and II. C. Lieser was elected Secretary. Geo.

There were not more than a dozen druuk men in Hillsboro during cen tennial week. Miss Annie Wiley returned from Portland last week to stay at home for a while. Wilbur Wiley is working in Portland in a box factory. T. W. Pittenger has arrived at bis home in Ohio all safe. His fare from "Frisco" ovarlanJ cosi him only $00.

Commencement. THE C0MMENCEMFNT EXERCISES OP THE GANMA SIGMA SOCI ETY OF PACIFIC UNIVER SITY CONCLUDED. ESSAY RISIXU ASD FALLING. BY H. TAMBA, OF JAPAV. Change is a universal law of nature, Whatever once rises will fall at some time or other. Although many things have died away before they had reached maturity, yet nothing has ever remained permanently in the same position. All animals and all plants are subject to this law. The earth which seems to us most permanent is found to be al ways changing both in its form and in its situation in the universe. Of course man is not excepted. The Cromwell of It530 was not the Cromwell of 1C 10. The same man still held on; but how many thoughts and ideas have changed in him! What a number of things he has lost and gained during that period! He has been clja'K-ig all the while. So it is with every thing. This great change whieh every substance is in cessantly undergoing may be divided into two classes, viv: liiinj and Fallimj. Man is a good example to illustrate both of these. Soon after his birth, he first leaves his in fancy, then his childhood, then his youth, then enters upon his career, pushes forward and rises; great circumstances, act upon him, and he acts Uon great circumstances, and after ull these things shall have been finished, he falls and dies. This is the rule of human life. Our Forest Grove, though it is somewhat separated from the rest of the world has made u very remarkable pro gress. When a or stranger came here six years ago, there was nothing but a few cottages scattered here and there, und sur rounded by dirty-looking rail fences, and no side-walk except a few logs and planks lying along these fences. The popula tion was thin thin as an old man's hair. The business was small. Strangers were few. In a word, everything was scarce aud limited at that time, ltaiu was an exception of course. But what a mighty change! Now, bushes have been cut, stubborn soils plow'd, forests cleared. Wnndcrinaf pigs can no longer monoolize the streets. Splendid houses with handsome fences and broad walks are Wing built in several places, their number increasing as the population increas es. As to the advancement of the individ ual citizens, much more might be said. The little girls who formerly used to jump orou.tjd in the college jard, now as young ladies, walk gently lik bnails. The little boys who used to go to school bare-footed, now decorate themselves with high-heeled boots, Btove-pipe'hata, and long cuiled whiskers. The rapidity of their prpgrcss is truly surprising. But, my young friends, you must not flatter yourselves with your physical growth, nor be deceived by a false security of your lives. Your growth is but a harbinger of death. You cannot find any where a fountain of perpetual youth. The death of our fore-fathers, and the decline of our parents must be stiflu-ient to warn an idle youth of his falling into the same des tinv soon afte w.inl, and to awaken his dor. maut mind into attiviiy. Only let this be remembered that every thing must die sooner printer; as a sensible oet eaug; "So fades a summer cloud away; So sinks the gale win n the storms are o'er, So gently shuts the eye of day, SJtd:es a wave along the shore." When I was crossing the Pacific Ocean, nud whu my native shore had sunk beneath the hoi i.on, tending ot) the deck I looked around with anxious eagerness, but I saw no land from which I was receding and no laud to which 1 was approaching. Before, behind and on every side of me there was only a vast expanse of waters. The daijy illumination, the glitter of the stars, the morning ond evening painting of the sky, the tossing of the white-crested waves, and the gliding of the clouds before the winds, were all I could see; consequently our is sel seemed as though lying still day after day on the centre of an immense disk of water. But when I looked down from the fore part of the ship I was surprised to Jio tice the rapidity with which she was moving forward more than 200 miles a day. A thought then occurred to me that human life is very much like a voyage. Often times we are uncoiuious of our rapid march to the grave, and neglect to perform our du ties piomptly, 3 et by a little reflection we can sec how swiftly we are navigating on the stream of time to reach the shore of lasting rest. He alone remainsas the ex ception to this general rule, who is the same yesterday, to-day, and forever. Now, there is little dimculty in seeing that those who have arrived at theageof discretion must lay down all their childishness, and be ready to fight through the battle of life, Youth is the period in which we must pre pare ourselves for our future life. As du ring the summer, bees store honey, squir rels acorns, ants grains, farmers crops, co we ull must do our work while wc are young. Pardon me, for I do njt mean that aged persons should do nothing, but that they must already bo prepared to perform the duties belonging to them. Nothing is no indefensible as to let a single wakiug hour pass unemployed. Our word a.7 is de rived by some from tho Latin "ago," Jo; hence whra we pcak of the age of a person, we imply his action. But by the improp er usage we have almost forgotten this original meaning of the term, and now ap ply it to mere lapse of years. When we are asked Low old an idle man is, we reply he is so many yeara of ajt. Strictly speak ing, this is a wrong answer. We ought to answer that he Las lived or breathed for so many y uars. This close connection of life and action which are expressed by one and the same word, aj. indicates that doing is an essential part of living, Life is more than breath and the quick round of blood. To eat, drink, sleep and be exposed to light and darkness is not life, Every day is a a reservoir which is to be filled with our thoughts and deeds as elevated and as amiable as we can attain. An Italian phi losopher Rajs that time is bis estate an es tate that will produce nothing without cut tivation, but will always repay abundantly the labor of industry and satisfy the mos extensive desires; if no part of if be suffered to lie waste by negligence, to ovenm with noxious plants, or laid out fqr show rather than for use. A single glance is sufficient to perceive that life truly consists only in such exercises. "It is better,' says an old proverb, to wear out than to rust out." To wear out implies actions, and to rust out, the stagnation of death. But there is a constant tendency of human beings to in cline to the latter. It is harder for a needle to go through a camel's eye than for a young man to ramble through a street Having iald enough on the subject, and if I be allowed to digress somewhat from it, I shall now say a few words in regard to my personal matters. I Iia.ve bad always in view from my very childhood that I must do something more than to live easily in this world. If the latter were my only ob ject, then I would not have come to this country to suffer, but staid at home where among my kindred and among my friends I had sufficient means to lead a happy, com fortable life. Yet, nevertheless, by a strange impulse, I had a strong desire to go abroud where I could obtain large cumulation of knowledge and wisdom. And, thank Gjd, I sought and found it. I knocked and it was opened unto me. But to enter into the gate of knowledge was a hard task. My sufferings for some years both in studies and in other things wero very great. In addition to the difficulty of mustering a foreign language, I was obliged to study mostly iu the night, and did so by using the candle light which was very offensive to the eyes. In short, to keep on studying was extremely difficult; to r turn Lome was im jKissible, The only resource left was to en dure or to die, and finally J concluded to endure till I died. Fortunately such a gloomy prospect his now passed away and I succeeded in gratifying a part anil only a part of my earnest longing. But how could I do this alone? How could a boy penniless, friendless, poor stranger accom plish his object without aii) help of oth ers? For all I have done i am vastly in debted to you, professor and citizens. I um very thani'ul for it. I cannot forget, neither would I if I could, such kind treatment from you during the last six years. Although I have opposed and do still oppose the question of "Wom an's rights," and thus have lost the good will of a large part of the female citizens a loss by no means trifling to a young man, yet, I believe that most of you are stitl on good terms with me. From these beloved friend of mine it is sad to say, the time has now come to part. In the future I may meet with some of you semewhero &n the earth, but most of you I shall never see again on this side uf the grave. With a sinoerc. heart I hope that sll of you will suc ceed in your struggle iu this earthly lift, Too Youxo to Die.
