PRINCE ALEXIS—HIS RECEPTTION THE DATE OF THE CRUCIFIXION. AT NEW YORK. The New York Price Current says the people of the Atlantic States have a much more imperfect idea of the wealth and re sources of Oregon than they have of Cal ifornia, albeit the two States lie side by side. We gather from the census some information of the products of Oregon, which may prove interesting to business men, and which show that the “web foot” State is not by any means the least important of our agricultural common wealths. Here are statistics of produc- produc tion, etc., of this State in 1869 : Wheat............ bush. 1,750,000 $1,500,000 5,200 5,200 Rye........................... 270,000 Oats.......................... 500,000 200,000 Corn.......................... 200,000 200,000 Barley .................... 200,000 300,000 Potatoes......... ......... 500,000 75,(KM) 637,500 Hay................... tons The returns show further that there were in the State in 1869, 48,800 horses, 1,560 mules and asses, 79,312 milch cows, 101,960 sheep, 112,700 swine, and 140,500 young cattle. Total value of domestic animals, $7,946,255. Cheese was produc ed the same year to the amount of 105,- 279 pounds, and butter 1,(MM),159 pounds. Production has already been prodigiously stimulated since 1869 by the building of railroads and accessions to the popula tion. The continued operation of these and other causes will multiply the pro ducts of agriculture in Oregon ten-fold by the time the next decennial census is taken.— Democratic Era.
