Thla county has an nisnble prop

about 0,000,000 acres nf laud, and h.ip
n population of between A.OOO and

their long lines in cithea dlrcotiou to
ward lofty mountain ranges in the dis
tancu, covered with immenso forests,
form a basin apparently oncircted with
tnonntains, and known ns tho Uoguc
Kivor valUy.
The geueral geological character of
tho county boars strong indications of
volcanic notion, sconaccous aud trn
penn masses occurring in many place
in tho eastern part. Still theio is of
ten found in this valley a sort of con
glomerate sillcious composition, whiuh
often contains shells aud other indica
tions oi sedimentary formation.
At the intersection of tho Coast
Ilaugc mountains by Hoguc river, snud
stono prevails, nnd(tho strata remains
uninterrupted, except at long intervals,
Tho soil along thu crcuka aud liver
bottoms nud through the valluy is very
fertile, being nu alluvial deposit of sed
iment, decomposed earth and vcgot.v
bio mold. Thoso nlloys, whou culli
nlod, produeo nil kinds ot cereals in
pel lection, also, roots, vegotnblos, In
dian corn, tobacco, and all the vane
tic of fruit known to tho climata of
Oregon. The plateau, or more olova
ted portions, havo a modcratofy rich
soil, whose chiif componeut parts are
silica and u brownish gray mixture of
dcoomiKMcd vogctablo, clay and loam.
Theso land, wlioro cultivated, hnvo
proven very jiroduotlvc, and nro no
where excelled for their capacity to
raise wheal, This entire valley seems
particularly adapted to stock-raising
its hills, prairies nud valluya affording
nu almost unlimited supply of pastur
age, whole stock ol all kinds fatten
and tlinvo wl(h but littio care, seldom
jcpulricg oxtin feed, mid in tlioso in
stances not moro than two or throo
months in' the yVar. Tjio cliniate,(slm
ilar to that of thu saino altitude in oth
r purtions o tio State, is mild', - evaii
nnd tcrapurutc, but not so humid as In
tho Willamette valley, the extremes of
oold seldom falling below zero or that
of heat rising to ono hundred degrees
above. .
The water is pun?, soft and abund
ant, being supplied by springs, brooks
and rivulits fiom ita mountains, wldlo
tho numerous cascades along Uoguu
river nud its tributaries furnish ruotivo
power in abundance for every variety
of machinery.
In regard to the health of this coun
ty, there enp. bu. but ono conclusion
formed. A locality with pure running
wator, nud thu facilities of enjoying a
ellmato in summer fanned by a gentle
sea liroexo, or ly alllluuo to iniiaio tno
bracing nir of perpetual snow, must
impart strength aud vigor to tho iuva
lid nnd insuro lo tho man of health a
halo old age. Tho faoilities for mar
keting aro confined principally to the
various mining camps in this portion of
Oregon and Northern California, where
fruit, vegetables, flour, bacon, beef, but
ter aud cheese find a roady market at
remunerative price.

Archbishop Manning on Education.
It is a ntrnugo thing that thu heads of
tho Homlih Church are far moro bigo
ted than their docks, aud thai those
members ol tho Ilomnu hierarchy who
have beou nurtured in Protestantism
mid freedom nre even moro slavish and
obstructive hnti Jlho rest of their breth
ren. With a largo auioiintof good in
them, with a great love, (or their fellow-
men, vith nn earnest sympathy witli
many of tho philanthropic movements
of tho day, Doctor Newman and Doc
tor Mannii)g,iiro (oticvurything which
is supposed lo touch the Church moro
Papal than tho Popo. Tho latter, on
tho occasion of that hiugular fcstivnl,
tho. I'Vnst df tho Sacred Heart, has
issued a Pastoral on' the s'ubjeot of edu
cation, in wliiuh hi plea'ds for the de
nominational system, not ns the best
system pot-riblo (for that would, of
coiirso, bo a thoroughly Popish schemu),
but as tho only ono practicable in thu
divided stale ol English society. Tho
Arohblshop looks back with fond long-'
lug to tho time when Chtiroh and State
wcro ol tho same, religion-; and not re
coguUiug how Impossible it ia for such'
a condition of things lo occur again, ho
desires to sec all xcholaillo instruction
in the hands of the clergy, ns tho near
est approach to his educational millcn-
ium.
Tho Pnstoral is full of those unctu
ous fallacies so peculiar to Roman
Cathollo writers. Tho lato Cardinal
Wiscmcn was a great master in that
stylo; Cardinal Cullen is hardly in.
fcrior to him ; but when ho pleases, Dr;.
Manning can surpass them both. It Is
not worth while toquoto uny of theso
clerical flowers of ihctorio, but aouio of
his assertions will show not only how
low tho celebratod logician of Oxford
has fallen from his high estate, but how
forgetfal ho is oi the history of bis o,.n
Churclu After asserting that "the
Stato lias no rights, and thoreforo no
duties higher than thoso of tho parent,"
ho oontinues: "Sacerdotalism claims
no such rights against tho natural
rights of parents.'" Sacerdotalism is a
very convenient word in a disputant'a
mouth : it may mean ovorything or
nothing. Dr. Manning employs it ns
a synonym of tho Rommi system, and
the sentence i very startling to tlioso
who remembqr tho Jlortara case, and
bow tho Romish prieBthood havo al
ways maintained their righta to bo su
perior to those of tho parent. Civil
history is lull ofbuoh struggles they
aro still of friqent occurenco in Austria ;
and yot, with this knowledge full iu
bis mind, the Archbishop presumes so
much upon tho ignorance of hi hearers
as to assert what is entirely oontrary
to historio fact, The rights of .parous
ai'o absolutely dull where thu Church
is concornod. In that respect; tijo or
thodox fare lijtle hotter tljan.tlip here
tics. In Ireland, the people jyould bo
willinc to send thek children to tho
mixed' achooli and the Queon's Col
Jogoi, oat priest, Cardinal) and Popo J
forbid them. f "" 1

of bureatia ntid of pedathA In such '
j bystem, the State has not only got rid
of Sacerdotalism, but has usurped tho
parental rights of tho people. Its
usurpation upon the office' of tho Church
is a usurpation also upon the .authority
j of every father nnd mother in thu laud."

for social purpo'es for thu proicctioii
jof poison and propel ty and ffcat its
I action must lie extended out nil. The
Stntc is an umpire bound to prpcura
imr piay lor an. in educational tnat
tore, It says that "children must not be
nllowed to grow up in ignorance, and
if parents will not eduenlu them, I
ahull." But then it is manifest that so
soon as you draw upon fund to which
nil contribute, nil have a right to
ahnro in it. The Statu can only ensure
that light in educational matters by
noting upon the principle that there is
nothing religious in tho Alphabet or
the Multiplication Table, aud therefore,
such subjects aro strictly within lay
limits. As soon ns icligious matters
nre conocrnod, the Stale says plainly
that its nnehinery is not suited for thenr,
nnd that they must 'ju left to tho par
ents and Jj'o cleigy Secular nnd re
ligious liiMiUctiou aro as distinct as 11

A boy shall not be permitted to learn
tho Rulu of Three except ho learn tho
Catechism ttlo, ts ono of thoso absur
dities now icll to ttotuish priests and
Tory country gentlemen.
We need not Dr, Manning lo tell us
thnt "thu clergy havo hitherto rogardod
thoso (educatiounl) functions as their'
own," and a pretty mess thay have
mado of thoiu in Spain aud Italy. Hut
whvu tho Statu assutus tho same
