EDITORIAL NOTES.
The Democrats of Tennessee have
selected delegates to the National con
vention; nine are for Bayard, two for
. Tilden and one for Seymour.
Twenty-seven years ago there were
born into the family of Win. Marshall,
Whitewater, Wisconsin, triplets two
boys and a girl. They were all mar
ried a few evenings ago in one cere
mony by one clergyman.
Wm. H. "Vanderbilt, who has been
prudently laying by something for a
rainy day, last week salte-1 down five
and a half millions more in registered
Government bonds. Ho is now the
owner of upward of thirty -one millions
of registered governments, and his in
come from the national treasury is a
little over one hundred thousand dol
lars'a month.
Much grumbling has leen done
about the meagre salaries of the judic
iary in this State. There appears to
be a very largo number of candidates
for judicial positions, however, and as,
of eourse they are all "pure patriots
aud able jurists," their willingness to
accept is a strong reason why the sal
aries are sufficient. Whenever men
are so keen for office at a stipulated
salary it is pure waste of money to
rait.0 the compensation.
The Pomeroy wing of the Union
Greenback Labor Party held its Na
tional convention in St. Louis, "March
11th, and finished its labors by nomi
nating Judge Stephen D. Dillaye of
New Jersey for President of the
United States, and Congressman B.
J. Chambers of Texas for Vice-President.
Judgo Dillaye is one of the
most forcible political writers of the
day and has for many years been a
regular contributor to the "Irish World"
published in New York. The other
wing of the Greenback party will hold
its National convention, at Chicago on
tho 9 th of June.
This Congress has been an unusually
quiet one so ta.rr but it has succeeded,
nevertheless, in saddling the Democrat
ic party with some healthy white ele
phants. Tho Curtin-Yocum contested
seat case has never been brought to a
vote for fear of offending the Greefi
backers. Tho Washburn-Donnelly case
is so palpablu a steal th it. the party
daro not perpetrate it before flection.
And the Fit&Juhn Portj
aenctes'oi uiosewiio uavc champiouei
his cause. The Democratic party
btands sponsor in each of these cases,
and while it has derived no benefit
from any of them, they will al! go to
swell the indictments against it which
will be presented to tho people this
year.
Seymour says that the quarrels over
presidential candidates in tho Demo
cratic party are all over old men, while
the Republican candidates are of the
younger class. Ho himself spent
much of his political life fighting the
battles of old men, and the first thin::
he would know they were dead, and
all his labor lost. He says further
that the old stock of Democrats are of
very little account, and intimates that
they may all die off before they can be
used. Tho movement for him is not
sincere, but his name is used to break
the power of Tilden. That done and
Seymour would not be thought of by
any oi e nave a few who honestly ad
mire the man, but who are not in the
secret as to tho use of his name. It is
cruel thus to harrass an old man. who
lives in dread of a malady worse than
death itself, and were not tho Demo
cratic leaders hard hearted and cruel
Mr. Seymour would be allowed to en
joy his superannuation in peace.
Where is Portland? The "Stan
dard" says Portland, as published by the
signal service is in longitude 127 deg.,
27 uiin. and 30 seconds. Well, this is
astonishing! Just think of the metrop
olis of,.the great Northwest, 75 miles
out in the Pacific ocean! We knew it
rained copiously in Portland.tand were
awaro that the political editorial of
the ('Standard" had an aqueous flavor,
but never knew the cause until en
lightened by the matchless accuracy
of the "signal service." Observations
taken in Jacksonville with a "helio
trono" fresh from the botanical gardens
at Washington, corroborated with at.
tronomical experiments made with an
"asteroid" of the finest quality, place
Jacksonville in longitude 122 deg., 57
,min., and 59 seconds and we never
know before, that the Queen City of
Oregon, according to the "service" was
swimming like our floating island of
Squaw Lake, in tho blue Pacific. It
may "bo possible that tho "service" or
the "Standard" is mistaken, at all
events the accuracy of the item is open
to investigation.
To be perfectly just is an attribute
of the divine nature; to be so to the
.utmost of our abilities i$ jthe glory of
man. Addison.

ROr CLLTIKK.
Last week we published an article
on hop culture from the "Willamette
Farmer" that is well worth considera
tion. It. is stated that the average
yield is 1,500 pounds per acre this at
the lowest j.rice of 10 cents per Kund
would make a gross yield of 8150 per
acre. Assuming that expenses of cul
tivation, harvesting and marketing is
100 there is left a clear profit of 650
per acre. This result is obtained by the
highest estimate of "cost and the very
lowest price for hops, but the truth is
that the whole cost of cultivating, har
vesting and drying does not exceed
S75, and this year, instead of 10 cents
the product is cash at 35 cents per
pound. Prices are fluctuating but
this season, which is a most favorable
one. the clear rirout to an acre is
S450. Going back, however, to the
lowest statement we ask farmers what
crop will net them 50 per acre besides
distiibutingSlOO in cash among their
own people as the wages of labor?
Will wheat do it? Can it be realized
on wool? No one will contend .that it
can, and still thousands of acres of the
richest lands we have are continually
cropped without profit. The great dif
ficulty is, that we are all too impatient,
want to get rich the first year, and
when it is known that hops will not
bear more than 800 pounds the second
year nor a full crop the third, it is a
damper on the enterprise. Ve still
maintain that it is a better, and more
profitable industry than wool growing,
while not interfering with it at all,
and those having suitable land
would do well to turn their attention
to it; as any commodity commanding
cash at an average price of 18 cents
per pouud will bear transportation to
market.
TIIU IU'.JIOCKATIC TICKET.
The Stato convention of the Demo
cratic party met at Albany on the 7th
inst. and was called to order by Capt.
Miller, Chairman of the State Central
Committee. General Joseph Lane was
'lected chairman and after the appoint
ment of comuntteea on credentials and
platform, the convention adjourned till
seven o'clock P. M. On reassembling
the committees appointed made their
reports, but there being a wide differ
ence of opinion in regard to what the
platform should consist of no nomi
nations were made that eveuing, a,
though the session was continued till
after 11 o'clock. The next day the
toltowin
m-ide:
Prim, and John'Barnettj Presidential
Electors, J. K. Weatherford, James
Fulton ami T. G. Owen. The district
nominations aro as follows: First
District Judge, H. K. Hanna; Dis
trict Attorney, Thos. B. Kent. Sec
ond Judge, J. J. Walton; Attorney,
James Hamilton. Third Judge, R.
M. Ramsey; Attorney, E. C. Bradshaw.
Fourth -Judge, C. B. Bellinger; At
torney, J. M. .Gearin. Eifth Judge,
L. L. McArthur; Attorney, D. W.
Bailey.
mi it vuom.tc.
An article on the outside to day on
fruit growing will be found interesting
to all concerned. If instead of
continually cropping with wheat almost
at a loss, some of our farmers would
set out a moderate orchard of prunes
and plums, for which there is an un
limited market, they would soon find
themselves in receipt of a handsome
and certain income, measured only by
the number of trees. Machine dried
plums pitted, are steadily quoted at
20c per pound, atid it is almost impos
sible to glut the European maiket.
with this commodity, or indeed, to suji
ply our own Western demand. When
our people learn patinnco and apply
their industry with a view to perma
nent future results, they will have
struck the key note to prosperity and
when they learn to produce some ai
ticlo that will sell in an outside tnai-
.ket, thecry of-hard tinies"wiir be heard
no more.
SECTIONAL JF.lLOIsirS.
From the tone of our middle Wil
lamette exchanges it appears that an
effort is being made to bring the en
trance of the Columbia itito disrepute,
and to create the impression that it is
exceedingly dangerous. If it be true,
tho Portland press should make a
united effort for government aid and
keep the channel clear, else Yaquina
bay -will be the only entrepot of mari
time commerce to a whole State. The
attempt to obtain assistance for the
latter point is developing the most nar
row, sectional animosity but it will
be found that it will take a vast
amount of newspaper talk to open Ya
quina and closo the mouth of the Col
umbia. The President has signed the "Star"
service deficiency bill m. that the mails
will be carried as usual.

It is said that there are now good
grounds for the belief that "the lost
steamer "Brother Jonathan" has been
found. Last week the wreckers were
accompanied by Jas. Jackson, who saw
the ill-fated steamer go down, and un
der his guidance they began the search
in a different locality from the one
they had 'previously supposed to be near
th scene of the wreck. The result
was, they discovered in only eighteen
fathoms of water, what they have ev
ery reason to believe is the lost steam
er. It has been thought that she lay
thirty fathoms deep, which is a depth
to which few divers care to go. Pieces
of wood, and other evidences of a
wreck, were brought up by the sounding-iron
a heavy tteel-pointed bar.
The swell was too heavy at tho time to
admit of a descent by the diver, but
he will go down as soon as possible.
If the present indications prove to be
correct, it will be a good thing for Mr.
Jackson, as we understand that he
will be entitled to one-seventh of the
treasure, which is said to- be above a
million of dollars. Crescent City "Cou
rier." Uncle Sammy Tilden has become
annoyed by the frequent mention of
Senator Bayard's name in connection
with the Democratic nomination for
the Presidency, and, in order to put a
quietus on the matter, has hunted up
and had published a rebel sjeech made
by the latter in 1861. In retaliation,
Mr. Bayard is now searching Mr. Til
den's record, and promises to make
things lively for the sage of Graimnercy
Paik, It is but just, to Mr. Bayard to
say, and it is greatl to his credit as
an honest man, that he unequivocally
endorses his utterances in 1861 and
does not back down from anything he
then said.
