Wa songht our room to enjoy the comforts of a good fire, and improve oaf time in writing when tap, lap, tap sounded a rap on our door. We hastened to smoothe away the frown of annoyance and admit Mrs. A, -a fashionable gossip, attended by one of her numer ous progeny. We invite her to the parlor. "2fo, no,"' she pleads; "let me come right into yonr sanctum; it seems more homelike .there. I don't mean to waste j our time, "but I could not resist the temptation of coming for a qniet chat." We offer an apology1 and at last ac quiesce with a bad grace and doubtful glance at Master Jamie's mischievious fingers'. "Oh, MrsV jhave you heardthe news? Our minister's wife has gone on a visit to Boston, and left Bro. G all alone to care for the children. I told Sister E when he married that young giddy thing bow it would be. And don't yon think that Miss H appeared at church last Sunday in an other new bonnet the very latest style. Of course, she belongs to our set and has a perfect right to wear it, but' I do think a common clerk's daughter ought not to put on so many airs. And they do say she is, going to marry that young scamp of a P " Crash, smash, and a scream from Master Jamjs. He had climbed up on a chair, and lo, my choicest ivy ,and twining myrtle arj crushed in atoms. "There, don't cry. It's mother's blessed boy. Them's naughty vines to hurt Jamie." She continued her gossip: '-I don't see how you can find time for your painting. Your last scene was really beautiful ; but I would not be guilty of repealing the citicisms of some I have heard bpeak of it" "Jamie has grown quiet in looking at my picture album.and-trying.t6 feed candy to the picture babies.' . " Are yon going to the pic nic ?" we venture to suggest, hoping to change the subject. "Yes, and that reminds me Sister E was saying she expected to see you there in your old silk, as nsiral. She thought Mr. V was such a nice man, and wondered if he were not ashamed to see you so shabby. But, really, I must be going, as 1 promised to call on 'Sister. D . What a "delightf nl visit I have had 1" And she takes herself off, to repeat l.er idle talk elsewhere. This idle gossip and waste of time we protest against. What right have i the idlers to impose upon others? You, Mr. Sentinel, meeting a fash ionable gossip, chat a few moments, and then, " business before pleasure," you pass on your way.. Meet the professional man or busy 'tradesman, and he will give you a pleasant greet ing and then, remarking "business, my frieqd," away he goes,, If a lady weie to pass a fashionable gossip in this way, then woe be unto her I If we must listen to this class, let it not be in hours that witl interfere with daily employment or time de voted toetf.'improveruent-. We pro test, nriinst tattle. The ladv who in 'dulg'e in' "gossip not only wAstesner own lime,lbutiilso wastes the lime of oih'eru. O, women, can you nott find some nobler, better work to do?' If you that indulge in this idle goWp will devote the same time in adorning your homes, teaching your children, or reading, thus employing- your .idle time, you would receive a lasting bene fit in tho future, besides manyhours ' t ' i j.

Moreover, by so doing jou will aid in the wortof progress, and be, an honor to the"communitjPiifI(?hici7oi live, and your society will be soughtiv fie pure and good. VzDriViKOjr.

Stkwabt,- Dear Sir: I am in receipt 51 your letter of the I3th of .January, about a breakwater at Port Orford. 'It Is true that in 1868 Messrs. Dugan & Wall wrote me if I would get an 'appropriation to build a breakwater at Crescent City they wcfaid"payme' a good lee for my serv ices, provided I" obtained it within two years, from that time. 'I accepted the proposition. Afterward I examined the reports of the engineers, and they re ported it would cost five or six millions of dollars, aud they recommended that no appropriation of. the kind at present be made for Crescent City. This pro ject being hopeless, under such circum stances, I, in person, applied to the chief of the Engineer Corps to have a preliminary survey made of Port Orford. Several of the Oregon members did the same thing. The result was an appro priation was obtained and the survey was ordered, and through the papers I learn jt was made, and that it was very favorable. The California papers said the same thing about Crescent City. I have not yet seen the report about Port Orford. It it requires as large an expenditure as Crescent City, it is utterly impossible to get so large an appropriation at present ; but I will do all I can for the measure regardless of the expense. It 13 a great national enterprise. It would, make a saie har bor for all vessels plying up and down the Pacific coast north of San Francis co. If pressed, the next Congress might make it. Yours very respectfully, ' B. F. DOWEIX. i i ' WAsniNt-TOK, D. C, '-' Jfeb.Jl6,afl73, f Gait. Wm. Ticiiexor, Dear Sir; I am7 in receipt of your letter about a breakwater and railroad down Rogue River to Port Orford. I will do all in ray power to accomplish both objects. I inclose a cof y of my letter to Frank A. Stewart, which I wrote yesterday, and which will explain my position on tbe breakwater at Crescent City and at Port Orford. If practicable, without too much cost to the Government, I would favor breakwaters at both places. If too costly to build at both places, then in that event I would much prefer one at Port Orford regardless of ex pehse, even if it cost five or six mil lions of dollars. We want a good and safe harbor in that vicinity to sate life and property on all the vessels that ply between San Francisco and the mOuth of the Columbia river. It is a great national improvement, in which not only the United States are deeply interested, but Vancouver's! Island ,and British Columbia are deeplyjnterested. It would save life and property 'nearly very winter for all time to come. There is no. doubt that it is practica ble to build a railroad down Rogue River to Port Orford, and 'that the grade would be gradual and easy ; but at present it is impossible to get Con gressional aid for any road. Nothing of the kind will be done this Congress, except to investigate the frauds that have 'been committed by railroads. When this ends, next Congress may do something on tljo subject. A narrow gunge railroad conld be constructed down .Rogue Hiver very cheap. It constructed it wbnld makeiPort Orford ror Empire Gity a live town. Perhaps it would be of great advantage to both It ironld iurnisb Coos Bay coal to the interior for fuel for one-half the pnee of getting) wood. Press your enter prise in and out of Congress, and I will assist yoa alLI can. I belong to the old; Clay.school of politicians .who al "wava favored internal improvements by the Ceneral and Slate Government's. z ours very respecituuy. IS. t IJUW-KLL. A Sad Sigot.

To fatten poultry, feed three times in ftwenty'.fonr hours 'all they will eat, and remove all they leave, and they will eat more than when cloyed and disgusted by the continual presenoe of food. To keep layers in good condi tion, feed twice or thrice daily a reg ular ration, but not as much as they will eat. Some say feed as long as they will run. for what ybu throw to them and eat greedily, but that is not fright, lor they will get too fat unless tney are laying lreely. lhey will show eagerness about as long as they can swallow, and will scramble for what you. give them until in their rivalry they stuff" and cram themselves I week after week, and become a mass of iat, and yet they will still act at feeding time as if they were half starved. Feed your regular laying stock moderately, aqd be governed by their state of flesh rather than by their state of greed. Take a few fowls lrom the perch at night occa sionally to test their weight, and a little practice will enable you to quickly decide on the condition of the flock. Increase the ration as the yield of eggs increases, and so long as the laying keeps pace with the diet ycu may give rich and stimulating food in any quantity. Eeed the select breeding Jstock more sparingly than the rest of the layers, so as to give only a moderate jield of eggs or hatching purposes, for if you promote great prolifickness in the parents the result will be weakness in the prog eny. Uhickens during their period ot rapid growth should be fed Jf often, with a' variely, and all theyrTll eat. While they are growing there is no danger of over-feeding, it they are fed frequently and allowed perfect freedom. American Agriculturist. Powerful .Argument, A. few days ago a tall, rough-looking mountaineer entered the Kansas Pa cific Railroad ticket office at Denver, and, through mistake, pnrchased a ticket for New York via the K-msas Pacific line, when he desired to go over tbe Union Pacific He did not discover this fact until alter the ticket had been paid for, and on ask ing the agent to change it, the agent rcfuicd to do so. ,rYou won't change this ticket then, won't you ?" " N,o, sir, you have your ticket and I have the money for it, and if you want a lieket o er the other roufe, you will have to pay for it," Very quietly the stranger twisted his ticket into a small roll; very se renely he drew from under Ins right coat-tail a six-shooter a'bout the size of a mountain howitzer; coolly and de liberately he stuck the twisted ticket, into the muzzle of that six shooter, and thrusting the ,ugly looking thing through tbe little square window ot the ticket office, and almost in the agent's face, and speaking in a tone that leu no doubt ot his determination, said: " Stranger, thar's my ticket : take it yourself and change at, or by G d I'll blow it clean through you." the ticket was changed immedi ately, and without any more words from the agent, and thq mountaineer walked away saying: f'l jest thought I could induce him to change his mind a little." A Young Lady Sued for Breach of Promise. A novel case is on trial before a jury in Montreal, the plaintiff being a dentist named Mathieir, who brings suit against' a young lady named Laflamme,tfor refusing to comply with the terms ot a marriage engagement into which she had previously entered. This is said to be not the first time at which she has violated the tenorotthe golden rule, and it is reported that, to prove her malice aforethought, and the deliberation with which she ruthlessly snapped the tootl.pnller's heart-string, i li'i a: 1-3-1 i5.iit-..:il j.. ner uut uiscaruei. uauicb twu uuvanvu in solemn procession "and givecWdencfe 3gainst her -vthb a view ot establishing the fact that Fhe jilts with methodical regularity.

An Englishman writes from Somer-' " seUhire, stating that a grand exodus of -bone and sinew is to Occur in the spring. Tue, English agent who is, charged with the duty of organizing new colonies of farmers is reported to bo- overrun with applicants. One thousand emigrants are already jre . pared for departure ; the agent says he A has ,been "literally astonished" atthe number of farmers, farmer's sons and wealthy people who intend to, go whhr him, and he is already sore ot capital t to the amount of $250,000, which will. probably be multiplied by low at. tite opening of the spring emigration. Tneso are remarkable occurrences, and when taken in connection with th reduction of fifty per cent, in the Cu nard Company's rates of faro for emi grants, and also with the recent futile attempts of tho .Kaiser's Government tostay the tide of emigration, they point to an unparalleled increase of the foreign element in the United States during the coming twelvemonth. It is understood that a Jarge proportion of the new colonists will settle in the Northwestern States, where there is abundant room for millions Of people, with cheap, and fertile lands, and a growing demand for the products of skilled and unskilled labor. jV. Y Commercial Advertiser The New York Herad of February I7thsays:, "The Modoc Peace Com missioners have arrived in the neigh borhood of Captain Jack's stronghold and organized for business. They have encountered, however, a serious obstacle in the protest of the Governor of Oregon, who holds that no peace should be made with the Modocs until those of the number who murdered eighteen citizens of this State some time since, are given up to be dealt with by the civil, powers ; and, further, that as Lost River is a paitoi the State ot Oregon, it cannot be reserved by tho General Government for the use of the Modocs. Wo are informed by our special correspondent with tho Com missioners that tho Governor's protest was 'laid on the table ;' but it cannot be allowed to remain there. Tho rights ot the people ot Oregon must not' bo trodden upon, even to please the be nevolent friends,of thoJModoc savages." The New York Herald is tho only ona of our Eastern exchanges that has grasped the Modoc question with any thing like a clear comprehension of the facts. Ortgonian. Salt vor the Tiiboat. An ex change says : "In these days when dis eases of the throat prevail, and partic ularly a dry hacking cough, which is not only distressing to ourselves, but to those with whom we are brought in contact, the following remedy will be fonnd benehcial: .Last tall we were, induced to try what virtue there was in common salt. We commenced by using it three times a day, morning, nooii and night; we dissolved a large table-spoonful ot common salt in a half tumbler; of cold water, and with thisi gargled our throat most effectually, just, betore the meal time. The result has, been during the winter we were not only free from the usual coughs and' colds, to which, as far as our memory ex: tends, we have always been subject, but the dry hacking cough has entirely disappeared. We attribute it entirely to the salt gargle, and most cordially' recommend it to our readers who are" subject to diseases'ol tho throat." i Photographs printed with printer's ink, on an ordinary printing press, Bfe one ot the latest results of human skill and ingenuity, although the principle npon which it is based was discovered In France some twenty years ago.
