In all, more than four millions and a half of able-bodied men employed in the military service, at an aggregate expense, without counting the loss of their abstraction from productive pursuits, of not less than three thousand millions of dol lars a year. And yet there is no pres ent probability of any war in Europe, and these bewildering armaments are maintained for prudential reasons alone. I ■ CABINET.

Pay in advance is always acceptable. Don’t ask the editor to insert a puff of your business without paying for it like a little man. If you have business with any of the tvpos don’t call during composition hours, for they are then earning their bread and do not like to be disturbed. Never borrow your neighbor’s pa per. If in straightened circumstances save up four bits a day until you get enough to pay the price of subscription. Don’t dictate to an editor how to run his paper. T ASHLAND, fc I Like a tired, wounded bird, she has fluttered down upon her pillow, and rest, and sleep, and peace eternal, en- wrap her as with a mantle. Yes; little “Teenie” sleeps. The weary lids sweep the soft babv cheeks with their silken lashes, veiling the beautiful eyes that shall never again be lifted in such wistful pleadings. The busy little feet are quiet now; side by side they lie at rest, and for ever glad, perchance, to be thus early freed from the weary, tramp, tramp of life’s restless march. The dusky winged angel of death bent to ktss the once rosy lips of little “Teenie,” and not all the warmth and fervor of earthly love can break the seal of silence left upon them. Higher and higher, nearer and near er, crept the chill waves of the dark river, until they lapped the sides of the little crib, and out upon the moan ing waters, like a lily afloat, drifted the spotless soul of little “Teenie.” Out into the mysterious unknown, of which we know nothing—save that, for such as she, the arms of God’s in«- finite love are ever extended and with drawn not, until the little traveler rests in safety “Where the tender shepherd guards with care the lambs of the upper fold.” Over the threshold so often crossed by those ever restless little feet, ten der hands have borne the beautiful lit tle sleeper, and under the home roof, so hallowed by her sunny presence, has crept tho shadow of death; and Oh! in all this wide world there is no shadow so dark as that thrown by a little child’s tiny casket. Here lie the little dainty robes and the forsaken toys; the empty crib— empty, alas ! like tho mother’s heart and mother’s arms, and neither shall ever again know the presence of that sunny little head. Oh! lonely, weeping mother, for you—not for the happy dead, shall our warm tears fall. Faraway from home and kindred, in the distant land of your adoption, tho shadow of deatli lias fallen upon you. For you should we sorrow most. Little “Teenie” has gone home; loved ones who crossed the river before have welcomed her on the other side. Then slumber softly on thy flower gemmed couch, O.’ little sleeper, Short as thy stay has been, it shall not have been in vain. Frail as were those beautiful little hands,.they shall clasp I through all the years to come. The shining love chain, that is slowly short ening link by link, shall draw the waiting ones thither, and in tho “sweet bye and bye” the loved treas ure shall lie restored to tho hearts so sadly bereft. *#* M arion , I owa .

The Cork Constitution on the 22d of October has the following : “On yesterday a most extraordinary feat was performed by an American gen tleman named l’aul Boyton, who, by the aid of a newly invented swim ming apparatus, has swam a distance of upwards of seventeen miles. Boy ton was a passenger from America by the national steamer Queen and it ap pears he joined the steamer at New York with the intention of lowering himself into mid-ocean a couplp of hundred miles off Sandy Hook, in a life-saving apparatus which has re cently been invented by a man named Merryman. The apparatus consists of a trowsers, with a spripg bolt, and a tunic covering the upper portion of the body. There are air-apartments in the machine, the object being to keep the wearer afloat. The position which the wearer is to assume on reaching the water is to float on his back, and the apparatus is then worked by a pair of paddles, one on each side, on the principle of the canoe. Equipped in this apparatus, Boyton intended, as we have already mentioned, to enter into mid ocean about 200 miles off the Eastnet, but when the captain of the Queen became aware of his intention, he point blank refused to allow him to carry it out, but promised to allow Boy ton to make his experiment on the Irish coast. The steamer arrived off the Irish coast on last night about nine o’clock, when, in opposition to the cap tain and all on board, Boyton equipped himself in his apparatus, and set out seven miles off the Fastnet. The seal at the time was running very high and tho wind blowing very strongly, rain coming down in torrents, so that frequently, before Bovton had per formed his task, he had to shade his face with his hands to protect it from a heavy rain that was falling. He worked away with his puddles for some time, floated and drifted along alterna tively, until he had been about six hours at sea, when seeing an owning between two great rocks, he steered for it and drifted ashore on a sand-spit. He lit signals with a view of attract ing attention, but they were not re sponded to. He, however, by the aid of their light, succeeded in gaining high ground, where he lighted three signals more, but still receiving no re sponse, he broke off on a road, and soon after arrived in Skibbereen via Baltimore. In both places he was treated with much kindness by the I coast guards.

A F rank C andidate .—A candi date for office, in Mississippi, informs his fellow-citizens that “at the earnest solicitation of my wife and daughters, I have consented to become a candi date for County Treasurer.” W OOL UKADINU ANO PICKING. Mr. S. A. Seymour, of Portland, who last year commenced the business of grading and packing wool in Oregon, has commenced operations again with even more vigor. Last year ho suc ceeded in packing a great deal of wool, but parties did not have it thoroughly graded and marked. The advantage of having it well packed is obvious enough, and so is the necessity of hav ing our wool properly graded and placed before the world as Oregon wool, and so establish a State charac ter and grade, instead of having it shipped to California and go from there as California wool, as has been the case heretofore. Mr. Seymour will grade and pack it for the responsible price of 5-8 of a cent per pound, which includes all the expense to be incurred. He gives a guarantee that the Eastern markets will recognize the grade and pay the market price therefor, and it seems to us the ad vantages to result should secure for him the packing and grading of a great portion of the pres ent year’s clip. At present our wool goes to market with all the dirty tags included. Wool is wool, and coarse wiry hair and finer fleeces are bundled together and shipped, so that the buy er, can form no correct idea of the contents of bales, whereas a proper sys tem of grading would exclude the dirt ami classify the fleeces as they de serve. That would take the conceit, to be sure, out of the man whose flock was badly bred and whose wool was in ferior, but it would secure a suitable reward for the wool producer who de served to be paid for superior excel lence. It would, furthermore, secure to Oregon a name and place as a wool producing State, and any degree of ex cellence we might be able to attain would be fully credited to us.— Fanner. 4 E xpenses of tiie W hite H ouse . —The following are the items of ex penses appropriated by the last Con gress for one year’s allowance to Grant’s house and household, and the people foot the bill : For compensation of the President, $50,000 ; private secretary, $3,500 ; assistant secretary, $2,500 ; one exe cutive clerk, $2,300 ; steward, $2,000; messênger, $1,200 ; furnace-keeper, $864—last year, $720 ; one policeman, $1,320 ; one night watchman, $900; one night usher, $1,200 ; one door keeper, $1,200 ; contingent expenses, $6,000 ; repairs to executive mansion, $10,000; fuel for same and green house, $8,000; care and repair of green houses, $5,000 ; filling the ground south of the Executive mansion, $10,- 000 ; taking up and relaying curb of Executive mansion, $1,500 ; cutting down embankment in nursery, $1,250; repairing fountain south of Executive mansion, $3,000.

He is keeping “bachelor’s hall,” his sons and daughters being all well married, and notwithstanding he is seventy odd years old he can still use his favorite weapon of exercise—the ax—and force daylight through a log in as lively« style as ever; The correspondent of the above named paper remarks that the old man’s indomitable soul and stalwart forirt refuse to bow under the heavy* burderf of years, and he strides about the foothills of the Cascades like a gigantic arid imperishable Genius of the Border. He is probably the only man of his renown and station in the world who cooks dinner for his friendly visitors. if. t <*) "114 W here re W aillix S kidadt ?-*• The AT. Y. Sun says that Col.
