LETTER FROM HAM'A VALLEY. îimw.1 Skf Offîf 1:11 Pu per for Jackson à Josephine fountirs. Coos county has some sections of govern ment land as yet almost untouched, to which the attention of settlers is called, and which will, we think, M'hen pioperlv ex amined, prove to be the verv best portion of Coos county, having access to the bay. A letter from Goose Lake to the Advo cate, says stock of all kinds look well and have wintered with little or no feed. The snow has not fallen at any one time more than eleven inches, and only remained about a week. At the present tiino there Is no snow in tho valley. General Butler's proposed trip to Europe is pronounced gammon by the Louisville Courier-Journal, since “his plan is to run for Vice-President on a ticket with Grant.” That would be a combination ! The same newspaper is convinced that the “President will never quit the White House except upon a stretcher.” The St. Louis Republican wisely says : Let the Southern people leave the Adminis tration and the Radical party to tho angrv North, with nothing to divert or distract it in the reckoning ; let them remain silent and passive while tho reckoning goes on, and the next Presidential el oct ion will be to the Radical party simply a day of judgment. Vasques, the bandit, expiated his crimes on the gallows in the jail yard at San Jose, Cal., on Friday before last. Ho died with groat show of physical courage, neither rare nor especially creditable. If. as claimed, he shed no human blood, he did if possible, worse—he prompted murder in others. We have neither inclination or spaco to publish tho sickening details of his execution, nor do we believe it would intorest our readers. A provision for enabling tho Indians in I certain cases to enter public lands under the ' homestead laws of the United States, secure i possession of and title to them, became a law as an amendment to tho Deficiency bill. The Indian must have been born in the United States, must be the head of a family : or have arrived at the age of twenty-one i years, and must have abandoned his tribal ' relations before he can enjov these privi leges. By possession of land ho shall not forfeit his share of all annuities, tribal funds, Ac. ______ A ntioch , March 19, 1875. To the EnrroR of the T imes : K.

Upon our table W’e find a neat 43- page pamphlet, containing facts re garding the climate, soil, mineral and agricultural resources, means of com munication, commerce and industry, laws, etc., of our State. It is intended for the use of immigrants, says the Gazette, and just such a document as should get scattered broadcast over the Atlantic States and Europe. It bears the imprint of Rand, Avery & Co., Boston, 1875, but" is, undoubtedly, issued under the auspices of the Ore gon Immigrant Aid Society. It con tains maps of Oregon and routes from Atlantic sea ports to this State. From a hasty perusal, we think it is entirely reliable. We do not know to whom we are indebted for the pamphlet, what the price, nor where they may be obtained. Twice m Muck. Somebody has figured out the in teresting fact that the total amount of State, county, city and town taxes col lected in the United States in 1870 was $280,591,000, which was about $7 dollars a head for the entire popula tion. The total amount of these taxes collected in 1860 was $94,186,000, which was about $3 a head for the en tire population. It cost, therefore, more-than twice as much to take care of a man in his State, county, and municipal relations in 1870 as it did ten years before. This does not in clude Federal taxation. Newspaper Change. Thoa. B. Merry has sold the Coos Bay News to Messrs. J. M. Siglin, II. II. Gale and Jos. Bennett, and it will hereafter be issued from Empire City as a Democratic paper. While we regret Tom’s retirement from Oregon journalism, in which he was ever in the front rank, we wish the new en terprise all success. Mr. Siglin will be the editor, and wHl make it a lively Democratic paper. Electoral College. At Marshfield, Coos Bay, there are two schooners on the stocks, and the keel of a third one is about being laid. Albany is growing faster than any town in the State. It is predicted that the census soon to be taken will give a population of 3,000. Eastern Oregon comprises a territory of 58,000 square miles, nearly two-thirds of the entire area of the State, and has nearly 15,- 000 inhabitants. Ankeny’s new theatre, just finished in Portland, is said to be a palace of beauty and art, and none but first-class talent will be permitted to appear in it. The Interior department will, as soon as possible, send a competent geologist to ex amine the Black Hills and ascertain accu rately their mineral wealth. A man at La Grande recently killed 91 snow birds at three shots, killing 60 of them at a single discharge cf his carbine. The Sentinel is responsible for this. The aggregate sum of the twelve general appropriation bills passed during the last session of Congress is about $175,000,000, apart from other bills containing appropria tions. A dispatch from New York says there has never been the least ground in truth for the report that Beecher proposes to address the jury in the present trial, other than as a witness. The late evidence in the Tilton-Beecher trial is regarded in the East as having in jured Tilton’s case materially, particularly that of the colored servants and Bessie Turner. A long and somewhat romantic account of the Black Hills country is given by Gen eral Sheridan ; the question of abundance of gold there is yet to be determined by ex ploration. The Postmaster General has instructed postmasters that on all mailable matter of the fhird class postage must be prepaid at. the rate of one cent for each ounce or frac tion thereof. A settlement of the Louisiana difficulty has been postponed until next December, by the postponement of the case of Pinch- back, the Senatorial applicant from that State, until that time. Geo. Coggan, of La Grande, Union county, has purchased the fast “Rifleman” mare “Nell Flaherty,” a celebrated California racer, and intends putting her on the Oregon turf. Mr. Coggan also owns “Osceola,” the fast “Norfolk” stallion. From present appearances the “leading statesmen” of the Administration party re gard the sustaining of the Kellogg fraud in Louisiana as the test issue upon which to make the next Presidential campaign. We i don’t want anything better.
