Sheridan aM some of his brilliant exploits performed 'during the war, said to your correspondent: "Sheridan's famous ride frow .'Winchester down. when he saved theday at Cedar Creek, has never been fally told. I made the trip with him, or! at least the lost part of it, and shall! neyeiv forget-the wild, desperate dash! i!wja WtajjL'ler the Gen- eral's IeedjiMTsJ the scenes of the road, the frightened, demoralized and wounded troops that we met flee ing for life, the battle-field as we reach ed it, and above all the change which Sheridan's appearance everywhere cre ated, inspiring the men with new cour age, transforming cowards into brave men. The wounded forgot their pain, and even those who had stood their ground took strength fnoni his coming. It was a grand sight, one that will live long in the memories of those who witnessed it" He was asked to tell the story, which he did very much in the following manner: "It was on the 19th of October, 1854. I had gone down to Winchester on a foraging ex pedition for my brigade. About day light I heard the booming of the can non in the direction of our army, and very soon became satisfied that a heavy fight was going on. In such an event feeling that fighting was of more im portance than food, I mounted my horse a powerful animal recently cap tured from a Confederate officer, and started down the valley pike road tow ard Coder creek. I had not proceeded more than four or five miles when I met a number of men riding army horses, some of them having harness on, as though taken from the teams. It has always been a matter of surprise to me how these men got so far in so short a time, f r they were then ten or fifteen miles from the scene of fight A little furthfinn T.mAr. ganmU in fantry. Questioning the men, they told of the sudden ttack of rebels, and said that our army had been either routed or captured." HOW SHERIDAN LOOKED. "Undecided whether to go or turn bark, I looked up the road toward Winchester and there saw a sight that settled the question for me at a glance. General Sheridan, on his little black horse was coming down the road at tremendous speed. He had on his head a plain black hat, without ornament, and wore a cavalry soldier's overcoat. His beard was long and black. In one hand he carried a small riding whip, which he kept shaking. He appeared very much excited and very mad. He wns accompanied by only one aide, then Captain, now General Forsythe, and for an escort a squadron of th3 Seventeenth Pennsylvania Cavalry, which was strung out to the rear for over a mile, trying to keep up with the General. I found Sheridan and we kept on toward the battle-field at full speed. As we advanced we met large batches of men rushing in confusion to the rear. They appeared to be utter ly demoralized; some without hats and shoes, and a great many without arms. The first detatchment we met was from the Eighth Corps. As we neared the field of battle, the number increased, until apixarances pointed to a com plete route of our army. But the sight vj the Generanjsjiti a wonderful effect on the men. phey worshipped him, and had perfect confidence in his ability as a General i nd courage as a soldier. As he thundered down among them he was greeted j with the wildest enthusiasm, and cbeaf after cheer was heard on every sidn. They believed that the defeat was due to his absence, and that with his coming the tide would be turned in pur favor. The men had become superstitious in their faith in Sheridan. They believed that with him they could never be beaten, but without him they were easily dis heartened. Occasionally on meeting a a body of men the General would stop and address them in a very loud firm tone, usually saying, "- it, men, what does this mean) Go back; you have whipped them out of their boots and can do it again." . All within the sound of his voice woult halt and cheer, and invariably turn back, so by the time we reached the battle-field a very respectable army was following direct ly in our rear." WILD DISMAY. "There the wildest confusion also prevailed. The only infantry in line was a portioh of the Sixth Corps, com manded by General Wright, who was just behind this division, his face ban daged up having been wounded early in the fight General Sheridan, dis mounting, spoke with Wright a moment, and then, mounting his horse again, rode round in front of the in fantry in line. As the soldiers saw him they rent the air with their shouts of welcome shouts that gave assur ance of victory and sounded the death knell, of their foes. The Sixth' Corps were "drawn up oelimd'a stone fence. Presently a column of rebel infantrv advanced at double-quick time with that loud yell peculiar to them when charging. The Sixth Corps stood firm, and held their ground until the foe was within fifty yards, when they opened fire. A steady, incessant roll of mas ketry was kept up for twentv minutes, theu gradually ceased. When the smoke cleared up a few rebels were seen flying in all directions, while in front of the Sixth Corps the sight was perfectly terrible. The ground was piled up high with the dead and wounded. That turned the fight Sheridan thus saved the day. Ho at once organized his forces and the result you know. He turned a defeat into a glorious victory. Some pretend to say that, had Sheridan been on the ground when the attack occurred, he could not have prevented the defeat. Had he been there he never would have oeen surpnseu. anc rebels never would have taken him unawares in that way." Chicago "News." JIlA.Mi LESLIE'S SlAIllY HACAZME.

It is, in every respect, a most admirable one; a religious, pure and moral tone prevades its pages, and still they abound with articles which ap(eal to all tastes and all classes, and w from tbcpeni8iLo ivhich hereadcrj cannot fail to derive both entertain ment and edification. There are so many good things that it is difficult to select the most notable features. The opening article, by Hart Lytton, enti tled "Esther Brandon's Mission Class," is a very pleasing narrative of the lady's experience in the Mission. "The Puritan Revolution," by Rev. Lyman Abbott, is replete with the stir ring incidents resulting in the organi zation of the Puritan party under Cromwell. Those admirable articles on "Tho Perhecutions," by Alfred H. Guernsey, are concluded in this num ber with a most interesting paper on "The Persecutions of the Huguenots," in France under Louis XIV. The two very interesting serials, "Be-Be the Nailmaker's Daughter" and "Little Hinges" are continued, and there are several short stories by popular writers. The subject (No. 2) of "Tho Children of the Bible," is "Isaac, the Child of Promise." An elaborate article on the late Frank Leslie, by the editor (with illustrations), is a beautiful tribute to the artistic and personal merit of the deceased. There are poems of great excellence, sketches, essays, adventur es, etc, and a musical composition, "I Have a Glorious Hope," words and music written for this magazine by Augusta Browne Garrett One hun dred and twenty eight quarto pages and 100 illustrations; the price of a tingle "py -5 crnls, or ?3 per annum, postpaid.

Among so-called gentlemen there is often the overbearing, tyranical husband, at whose voice children and servants flee; soured, probably, by difficulties in his business or profession, but surlily keep ing his trials from his wife, and snap pishly resenting all her attempts to win his confidence. Who so capable as she to soothe and aid, by her wom anly tact and discrimination, made keener by its concentration in her lit tle world home; and ha-e we not sa cred warrant that the wife is a help meet for the man, not a slave to min ister to his material only whilst he grudgingly doles out his money, never dreaming that the order of house is only arrived at by a thousand little domestic cares, so heavy in the total, yet a labor of love when lightened by kind, husbandly interest This man acts as if he were devoid of affection himself, and grossly presumes on his wife's early inculcated sense of duty. "Rural Press." BICK WHEAT ANW ITS CI LT1 VATIOX. Stayton, Jan. 26, 1880. Editor "Willamette Farmer:" Much confusion exists in the minds of many farmers as to the raising of buckwheat more than to sow a small patch for bees to work on, whieh is very good as far as it goes. The time has now coino when wo must look for some other cereal to take the place of late sown grain. Last year's exper ience in late sown grain ought to be sufficient evidence forany farmtrthaj,. a change would', be preferable. This grain I mention is not subject to rust, will outyield other wheat per bushels per acre, and can be grown on land that other wheat will not fill. At the same time I do not mean to say that it is the only land it will grow on, as it will do on all kinds of land thr better the land tho better the yield, as is seen by all other grain. You, Mr. Editor, as well as many of us, know that shift less fanning has been participated in to a considerable extent, and by so do ing our beautiful valley has in many places become a flower bed of bachelor buttons, or more commonly known in Oregon as French Pink, while on the other side the fields are ever green with that pest known to farmers as wild oats. The question now arises, how are we to get rid of these pests Hav ing considerable experience in the Eas tern States, as well as Oregon, I will recommend a theory that we may prof it by our labor, as well as clean our land from obnoxious weeds. Do not try to sow late in the Spring the land you plow in May and June. Let this be for Fall grain. I would sow Luck wheat, if the land is foul with wild II . ,, . . . uinary sowing, ine rapiU growth that buckwheat has gives it a start of all other vegetation, and in a short time the ground is shaded and the auu has no more to do towards warming up those obnoxious weeds. That Summer your land is ready for a seeder as soon as you take your crop off. Tho scatter ed buckwheat will do no injury should it come up in the Full; the first frost let it out. Buckwheat does not stool out like wheat, it only has a single stalk, does all its spreading in the form of branches; the lower ones are gener ally about six inches from the ground. Sometimes we have early rain in Ore gon, and it has a tendency toward in juring our crops; but I will say, for the benefit of those who are not acquainted with buckwheat, that you need not lose any sleep for fear that your crop is lost: it will stand any amount of rain without injury. It can be threshed in a couple of days' sunshine after a week's rain. Any threshing machine can thresh it It does not require high mo tion, and the concave should be lowered so as not crack the grain. It threshes quite easy. A reaper is the best to cut with. Where there is much to cut a hand-rake is best The man with a rake uses his discretion as to size cf bunches, they are not bound, but set up singly. Pressing the top of the bunch together, it should stand several days in this way, as it will be observed that there are many grains that were not ripe which will mature after cut ting. For the benefit of those inquir ing, as well as the many readers of this paptr I will give my method of sowing, which is quite correct for sowing buck nbeni. I Mm el glit. quarts to tho acre; sow the same as if sowi ig wheat, with the exception of sowing-a full hand. I take a small rock, about the size of a walnut, in my hand, holding it with the third and fourth finger. This pre vents you from taking too much at a time. If a man will observe this he will put only one peck to the acre, which is plenty on rich land. If the land is rather poor, put a little more seed on. Buckwheat, as fed for horses and cattle, is excellent, making a very rich feed I frequently feed it to horses that I want to fatten quick. Many differ as to time of sowing different kinds of grain. My experience is that the light of the moon in June is the best time to sow buckwheat Yours respectfully, O.B.Phelps. P. S. Should any one wi-.li seed, I can furnish it at Marion Station for SI 25 per bushel extra seed. 0 B. P. The best sporting, blasting and giant owder, fuse, caps and wadds at John Miller's.

Our citizens have been considerably divi erted this Winter by reading the va rious newspapers accounts of the "disas trous shipwrecks' at the mouth of Rogue river. As to the "ship-wrecks," the steamer Alex Duncan struck on the bar in attempting to go out and was washed ashore by the seas, and cast up high and drv on the Sontb t 'PForcwl-byafrl3hcl'fignr1Sl'iJ!"JKr couch she is again afloat and as stiff and staunch as ever. There has never been a vessel lost at the mouth of Rogue river. It is the worst placo in the world to wreck one the gravel beach and bottom precludes the idea of such a thing. Vessels have often struck on the bar and been washed ashore, whence they have been invaria bly launched with varying costs and damages. One schooner, however, was washed off the south spit in a storm, was carried out to sea, and was dashed to pieces among the rocks, about two miles North of tho bar. This is the only total loss at Rogue river, and I doubt if any other harbor on the coast can make as good a showing. We have had during the month the worst weather ever experienced in this county. One snow fall of five inches within a mile of the ocean, which lasted four days; afterward a deeper fall which went off the next day. Tho thermometer ranged from twelvn to twenty degrees above zero for several nights. About a week ago we had tha heaviest galo of wind experienced for fifteen years, doing a great deal of damage. The people of this county are look ing longingly for the location of tho breakwater. Port Orfordites exjiect to see it descend uion them ready-madu somewhat in the manuor of tho New Jerusalem.
