FASHIONABLE QWST.
It was a clear, cold inorning. 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

appeared at church last Sunday in an

style. Of course, she belongs to our

airs. And they do say she is, going to

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,

, ' " ; Feb.r15 173. -
Fsank. A. 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,

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

it would be of great advantage to both

Feeding Frtls;
Don't keep food always by your;
paahry, because, if they are laying
fowls, they are made too fat, and it
fattening, ones, not fat enough. 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."

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

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

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."
