Last week we noticed this subject of stone-making and promised to re fer to it again. Last Monday, Mr. Leathers, patentee, came from Port land with material, and he and Mr. J. C. Jamison made a sink for our photograper, al3o a small stand-top for Dr. Boyce, and two stones meas uring 7x14 inches each, which are now hard and good for service. The material used to make this stone is first, sand, four parts, and cement one part. Then a solution composed of alum, lard and common lye is ad ded to th mixture, and the whole is mixed together and moistened with water until it has the consist ency of snow when good for making snow-balls. It is then put into the mould and tamped down and taken out and left to cure. It is cured by wetting with water occasionally for four days, and in four days more it is ready for use. It is unquestion ably a great invention, as it will take the place of stone, and brick largely in the cities, but it will not substi tute wood for building in the coun try. It is estimated that it will cost at least 50 cents per cubic foot. At this rate the stone for the walls of a building 20 feet long, 1G feet high and 8 incles thick" would cost $8i ttlone, which would bo the entire cost of a wooden building of, like dimen sions. Mr. Jamison offered the right of manufacturing stone in this county for $501), and certain parties had about cuucImleYi to buy it when a telegram came statir.g that the State h.ul been sold. And now the price for this county has been raised to J800, a sum that no one iu this coun ty will give. Perhaps some one out side may be induced to buy in the excitement now at fever heat at Port laud about the invention. The ma terial for mauafacturing this stone would have to be shipped here, there being no sand in the county, and woodeu material is so cheap that stone could not compete with it. For hearth-stones, fire-jambs, chim ney tops, etc., this stone would be valuable. Mr. (J. A. Steel of Port land and Mr. J. C. Jamison have bought the right for "Washington Territory, Mr. Steel transferring a large amount of land near Forest Grove iu consideration therefor. Almost a Duel. Last Wednesday evening Andrew Jackson Tucker, who lives in "Hea then Canyon" and a tall stranger carrying a carpet-bag got into a row nt Cornelius, the man with the carpet-bag disputing some assertion of Tucker's, and after considerable bluffing on both sides and several ineffectual attempts to "tangle," they finally concluded to settle the ques tion of Tucker's veracity, by an af fair of honor, with pistols at l.r pa ces. They went out into the street and measured the distance, and tho stranger tried to cock his pistol, but the thing was refractory and would not work, when Tucker vLo was waiting for the word, became ner vous at the delay, and went for his adversary, hitting him over the head with his pistol. The stranger start ed to run, but finding a club he as saulted Tucker, who in the mean time had procured a club also, and after some scientific punching at each other's eyes, the stranger got hit on the jaw, when he seized his carpet bag and ran off, leaving the doughty Tucker in possession of the field. Married. Hon. Raleigh Stott Prosecuting Attorney for this judicial district, was united in marriage with Miss Sua in B. Stout on ihe morning of ' the 28th, and started south ona-bricfol tour, o says the Standard. We wish Raleigh and his happy bride a prosperous and pleasant Toyage on the Iiyj3fcEal ea. Death and Burial. Last Monday morning, August 28th, Geo. Morrow died of disease of the liver, aged 38 years. On Tuesday he was buried jut the Union school bouse with appropriate reh gious services conducted by Mr. W, E. Smith, and the rites of the Ma sonic order. j.Ir. .Morrow was an enterprising and valuable citizen. being ai leading man in his neighbor hood and his loss will be deeply felt by his family, relatives and friends. He was the Independent nominee for Sheriff in this county at the last election. Stricken down in his prime, strikes the sorrow deep er into the hearts of those whom he loved. Peace to his ashes. State Teachers' Institute. The 187( session of the State Teachers' Institute met at Salem on the 23 inst. under very favorable circumstances. The body was called to gether by D. M. C. Gault, presi dent; Prof. J. S. Gregg was called to the secetary's chair; Mr. ltandall conducted the devotional exercises; State Superintendent Rowland mtule remarks and suggestions for the wel fare of the meeting.

Jacob An dcrson(not our Jacob) is tho victim, behaving been employed to wait on Nicoll who died of that disease in that city recently. We learn thro' private information that a Chinaman living in one if the small Chinese houses near the Chinese vegetable garden in the western part of town was found broken out with the dis ease last week. The city papers are mum about this case because it hap pens not to be in Kr.f Portland. Laudable Enterprise. L. Samuel, proprietor of the 11V.-7 Share, cjffers $80 in prizes for best compositions by perse its under IS and 13 vears of age; also for best articles by residents, on the resour ces of Oregon, and Washington Ter ritory. The design Is laudable, but the time for a full notice was short, the first of October being the limit, and the names of the judges should have bo3n given to engage the at tention of real talent. Look Sharp For Burglars. We learn that the stores of Bin gassar & Deilsehneider and W. .H. Iioyd vvrre? burglarized at McMinn ville on Friday night, last and that the safe belonging to both were blown open and the contents taken therefrom. We have no particulars other than the former lost $1,100 in gold coin; W. II. Boyd, $150: and Wells, Fargo & Co., $100. No clue to the burglars has been discovered. The Canyon Road. Last week workmen wero cngagod grading down the hill at the top of the Canyon. They began at the house of Mr. Jones on the top of the hill and cut down the hillside over which the road ran and graded up the road in a depression 100 yards father down. Deaths. Mr. Z. Baker of S -oins Valley, aged 18, died of typhoid fever on tho 2sth, also Mrs Kirts of Greenville on the same day. Mr Tewalt'sand Geo. Morrow's deaths are noti. red elsewhere. An infant son of Mrs. John Withycombe died on the 28th. and the mother is lyin in a critical condition from puerperal fev.-r.

Dr. Givens of Union county, well known hero, is in Hillsboro on a visit. He left here altout a year ago, just after graduating at the Salem Medical College ami has been prac ticing his profession in Union county ever since. The Doctor's good looks have im proved during his stay in Eastern Oregon. Last week Mr. Wilcox started with his mule team to California on a sort of a roving tour of tho country. On Tuesday Frank Rice and family started by wagon for California also where they intendto make their future home. Hillsboro will soon be deserted if this exodus keeps up, two families and the head of another having left within a week and another family talking of leav- ! Cornelius Items: August, 28th, 1876. Tho City Rifles came and went; but before leaving a littlo knock down transpired, in which, their Cap tain came out No. 1., all of which happened while two other boys were miltiug an old cow in tho fence corner. Miss Mollie DeLetts is quite ill of typhoid fever. The many friends of Mr. Spencer will be pleased to learn that he has abandoned his notion of moving awav, and has concluded to make this his home. Between 15,000 and 20,000 bush els of wheat are stored in the ware house at this place, but farmers will not sell for Go cents. Mr. Markee, who intended to lo cate in our town, has concluded to to go to Forest Grove, where they have better school facilities. Mr. Punch, our boot-maker has gone to Hillsboro, and is working in the grist mill there. Mr. Dow and family have just re turned from the Soda Springs where they have been rusticating, and they are greatly improved in health. Mr. Samuel Lenox has bought part of Mr. Houchin's farja for ? 1,300, so I understand. Farmers aro improving the "gold en hours" by cutting their wheat be tween showers. Susan' Jane. The Grove: Aug., 2. 1S7(J. The switch at the Grove station is nearly finished. It is altout COO feet long. Sever al parties will build warehouses there. The land donated by Mr. Smith is 1200 feet long and 85 fe t wide, and is to be used only for railroad purjxtscs. Jerome Porter threshed about 1,00:) bush- sis of grain last Saturday from 'M acres.

Mr. Fred Punch of Cornelius has lately taken charge of the freight ami ticket office at tho the station at this place. Wo understand that the Company intends locating a tele graph ofliee here soon. Tho Hillsboro Cornet band is practcing for the fair and will un doubtly make a good display for the time they have praeiticed. We understand that tho W. C. A. S. has engaged their services which will fill a deficiency long felt at its previous meetings. A gang of Cinnamon are engaged at cutting cord wood for Judge Humphreys on his land north-east of town. He proposes to cut 1,000 cords. The confidence man, "Dr. S. 13.

All the wav from the cradle to the prove men are not only shaping their own desti nies, but are also helping to shape the des tinies of their fellow man. There is no one so ignorant or degraded who has no friend over whom lie can wiel 1 an influ ence. Almost every child has his circle of friends with whom he plays, holds council, and talks of after life. These youthful companions mutually influence each other to a very great extent, and jerbaps any one of them ootid lead the into or out of mis chief as the case might lte. Thi power of influencing is very likely to go with them all their lives. Man's imitative propensi ty or his desire to do something like that which he has just seen his fellow do, af fords a vast field for influencing the young, for there is nothing in the world more nat ural for a child to do, than what he has just seen his parent doing. He will imitate his immediate associate or still more, men with whom he happens to come in contact. For instance, a lny seeing a man riding on horse-b ick will very likely pick up the first convenient stick he conies to and use it for a horse, or in in imitation of a real business of life you will see this boy with his toy playthings arranged on something as a counter with himself behind as vender. This imitative propensity is prevalent among mankind to so great an extent, that it is an avenue through which a reat deal of evil is brought to us, from time to time. The using of tobacco, the drinking of whiskey and many other cruicious habits are acquired through this agency. In fact this propensity is so great that many of the traits e possess are characteristic of the preceding generation. The desires, up- petites and passions of men afford a great deal of opportunity for influencing them. If these attributes are skillfully and rightly guarded the man may lead a true and noble life; but on the other hand, if they are left unguarded they will inevitably lead to ruin. The world is full of cunning devices that will lxrvcrt the appetites, flex the passions and build up unnatural desires. A fair il lustration of the powerful influence that may Ik? wielded over man by means of these attributes may lie . . - seen in ins struggles to aciiuire weaun. ftle desires happiness, and thinks that a vast amount of w. alth heaped together will yield him th desired 1oon; his desire in creases with his exertion and goes on in creasing until he will do anything almost for the sake or gam. He sometimes goes ao far in this direction that hn is often lead ut or the path of reetitu le; forgetting that there is no road to happiness outside th lounds of honor. The case of Belknap, Baljcock ami others, that recently occurred in Washington City is one of the many that will serve to illustrate this principle. It is not at all uncommon for a man who wishes to accomplish some low mean act to take J advantage of his neighbor's perverted appetites, desires or passions, ' or s -cuiiMgly pervert them to subserve his vile purjose. "Tho madness for money is one of the strongest and lowest of the passions; it is that insatiate Moloch of the human hart before whose remorseless altar all the liner attributes of humanity are sacrificed. It makes merchandise of all that is sacred to human aflvetions, and veii trafac in the awful solemnities of the ; eternal." Oar wily politicians well know tho power of this subtle agent, and often j use it in connection with whiskey for the p lrpose of controlling th elections. The T laimany ring outiolhd the elections in t ic city of Xew York for a number of years b this very means. Such abuses of power are not of unfre'pient occurrence, for men have learned that if they desire to intlu. nce their neighlor it is often easy to do so by taking advantage of his pervert ed appetites, desires or passions. There are thousands of men in our land to-day who are cunning and mean enough to nse such means as these for bringing about result that they desire. We are not able, unless by experience, to realize the full force of the temptation that is placed In-fore a man and causes him to lead a bad life. But this we do know, that evil influences allowed to operate on him from time to time will in evitably drag him down to an ignoble life, for such influences like the forces of nature move slowly but with a power irresistible. From first hist'ry mankind have been sul ject to temptations and inluences that have brought a great deal of misery upon the human race. Envy and hatred have slain many a fellow mortal. Avarice and the de sire of power h.ivo opened the way for some of the bloodiest wars that the world has ev er known. The love of money has caused almost all the corruption in our political circles of to-day. Thus we see it is almost iniossihle for us to be too careful in res pect to what we saj' or do, for our actions as well as our words have an influence over some one or other to no small extent. Here tofore we have been considering influences that are local in their nature and personal in reach. We now come to influences, which through certain agencies, such as the press. the post-office, and the telegraph, are world wide in their range and general in their rjv plieation; by which means the world of minds mav take cognizance of what its most insignificant member isdoing men W-omo acquainted with those they have never seen, and if necessary the jteople of the world may le incited to simultaneous action. It is very easy to see how such agencies as these and especially the press has so great an influence over the country; for many persons believe a thing is true simply be cause they see it in print, and from this very snrce the press derives one element of its greatest power. There is a class of nersons however, who are not willing to be- j Heve a thing for such a simple reason; but examine it, and test the truth of 'it for themselves. The efforts of such have Wen to keep all dishonest ami demoralizing printed matter out of circulation for it is not lonj since there was a great deal of printed matter in circulation that as shown by results to be of direct immoral tendency, for it hvl a ruiuons effect upon those among whom it was permitted to circulate. The denior- alizins effect that such publications would naturally have npon the reader may be shown to some considoratie extent by cojiv paring them with the novel and sensation itl writings of to-day whkh without a doubt narrow the intellect and dwarf the reason. So pernicious has leen the effect of such publication.- that legislators found it neoes sary to enact law prohibiting the publica tionaiHl sale of such booxs; thereby purify- ing the press to sueh an extent as to make it an instrument through winch a great deal of good might le accomplished aad a great deal of useful knowledge scattered broad cast over the land. Notwithstanding the tendency of so many i-rsons to evil, there are others who are equally, or more strong ly inclined towards the gl; ami we may now consider the influences thit operate uhu ns for our good as well as the good of the community to w hich we lx-long. All men are gifted by their Creator with an in ate perception of right and wrong. By this power they are enabled almost instant ly to determine the charaet r of any action. This same Mwer in mail that discerns be tween right and wrong, tends to lead him to form a true and noble purose and lay down foundation principles upon which he may buiid a superstructure in after life which will stand the storms ami the lx-ating of ages; and only grow brighter on account of them. Those men who give right heed to the prompti'gs of this spirit seem to Mssess within themselves a kind of vital force which not only moves themselves to action but infuses with the same spirit all those who come within the circle of their influ ences. Tho names of some of this class of men are among the brightest stars that stud the pages of the world's history. Such men as John IIuss and Jerome of Prague, and very many others who helx-d on the reformation that was then started may l olassed among those just mentioned thro' whose influence with the agency of the press, mankind have Im-cii lifted up out of darkness and placed iu the midst of great light. These men laid open facts and truths that the world, although not yet ready to receive, were unable to bury out of sight. The whole Catholic world was thrown into a furor of excitement. The promoters of this reformation had to pav their lives as a forfeit for their so called heresy. But notwithstanding the attempts that were then made to cover up these facts, they have la-tii handed down to us with still a growing sentiuient in their favor. The tl.ime that was then kindled has shone down through the dark ages, and is now giving light and freedom to the people of the whole world. It is indeed the main source of the freedom which we now enjoy. The paths to this high state of civilization and enlightenment 13' which we are now surrouuded have Wen paved by men whose ardor and unfailing zeal carried con viction with them; men w ho possessed with in themselves that vital force which was aeccessary to make things move, atid move to victory. We should not rejoice that such men have lived and have ojx-ned the wav through which we have attained this liigh state of civilisation; but we shouldalso keep the way open for future generations. and iii order that this may W done every man must do something to help on the cause and thereby h ave the world Wttcr for his having lived in it. M'e se e therefore that all the good and evil in this world, if not caused is incited by influences. Th good contributing to our happiness and well iH-ing, the evil to our misery and degrada tion. The examples and teachings of men lead to either. Hence the iinixutance of saying and doing aright that our fellow man may not Ih-lead down to a tlegraili-u anil miserable life, but that he may be led up to one true and noble.
