BELCaCK A.NU DLMOCKACY. Tbe Eloquent Plymouth Paul or oa Forced thlneie Letter. Ut In his sermon Sunday night, Nov. .21, Henry "Ward Beecher reviewed the Apolitical campaign, and closed witli a rTiiliie denunciation of the Democrat iCjiartr managers for their attempt, through the forced Chinese letter, to blacken Gen. Garfield's oetl name. Mr- Beecher said in conclusion: T propose as far as my testimony is enoernd, as far osvsI-cari bring the vi4,nl'of.Godrto -bearon this commu nity - and the population at large, to stamp the conduct that has tieen taking place under the oflicial sanction of the Democratic party with such odium that a man would sooner sleep with a rotten dead man than with that party. A good and great man is a glory to a State. He may have faults which it may be fuir to mention, thougli perhaps un necessary, nevertheless when he is rais ed to eminence, when a tiivn is to be elected to the Presidpncy of these United States, his moral as well as his political efficiency, are matters of inter est lo I'verx mother that is bringing up cliihlien. We can't send an uncertain man to that liigli po-ition, for what the President is, will determine largely what his cabinet will be, what the public sentiment of the party will become. We cannot afford to ut for four years a man in the Presidential cliaii who is not such a man as the nation will be proud of. Inasmuch as a good name is a tower of strength to a man and the glory of the nation over' which he presides, by just so much is the iniquity of taking anny a man's good name unjustly, foully. That there has been a most deliberate conspiracy carried out in all its part with fore M'ht, with malign and infamous intent to deitroy the good name of Gen. Gar field, I have no mere doubt than I have that 1 stand here, that the devil soes to and fro seeking whom he mav devour, up nnd down among men. I have watched the progress of it. I have seen thn vpnomus lluusts that have bppn made at him, a man, I believe as pure as any other man that walks the earth, as conscientious as -eii3ative to eeiything that is pure and irtuous, a Christian man, a Christian teacher, a n good father nnd husband and neigh bor, a good man whose whole long Ufa has been the earning of a reputation and of a character that should rank him among the good men of the earth. I an) not speaking of tho miserable scribblers that have sought to join his name in the transaction of money ma!- tets. There is not a man in the whole State of Ohio liing to day that would not be proud to put his estate in the hands of James A. Garfield io take care of thob whom he loved. Trtist is un bounded in him, yet they tried to make him a miserable thief nnd liar, and to discrown him they f-eetn to think that a noble citizen, standing high in the esti mation of the whole, world islawful pi ey, and that they are to he credited with skill, with power and greatness that know how to disrobe him and to tarnish his glory, which is the glory of tho na tion. But ill this last attempt, with this, deliberate concoction of a low and venomous life, brought forth by forgery and expedited by per jury, and that too by the ministration of the organized members of the great Democritic party I think, in the whole history of political transactions, there has never been anything whose infamy was so deep,.whose disgrace was so black, and on which hisiory will set such a blazing seal, as upon that whole transaction. I can understand how zeal ous mm may have been led into it, but one thing is certain, that the man who is covetous of his good namo will seoto it that he keeps out of comjiam ' that may damage him. A man must not be in a committfe wherr the rogues so preponderous that they may do infamous things that may come back on the whole committee. A man is known by the company he keeps, nnd no man can trust himself under such circumstances to thelight of public judgmpnt though he has been great no matter how hon est or truthful in his personal relation thai has been caught defiling the pure name of a great man. NThe inRtincts of a gentleman should keep a man from any such haste in such a matter as that, and if there comes to him one single moment's doubt that should brped hesitation and cau tion, and if doubt at lost ripens into relative certainty, not the speediest" horse that ever sped across thee desert should be quicker than he should'be to rush to the people and say "I am mis taken." 'But if he hahgs back, sullen ly, and defends himvclf, and carries it through, and at the very last, has. no indignation at the affront put on him, and put upon tho name of a good citi zen; how shall we characterize such conduct as that? It is more than cruel.' It is more than atrocious. It has in it an element of unspeakable, unutterable mp.innpsa nnd when" men talce dh thenvselve? sucrf iv uise uivihatf when men defile tho reputation of the noblest for any reputation vhatover; when they stand to it after the revela tion is made, their casa is hopuless. I say these things with grief. I would not say them if the indignation of the Lord did not stir nie to the very bottom, and if I did not desire to have it known for generations to come, that the men who undertook by lies, by for gery and by persistence in thein to blight fair fame that on that man should rest the indignation of the Lord and of the nation, so that the voice of the people should be the voice of God come to judge such a man. It will .come; it has copie. and as when the thunder breaks in the summer among the mountains, its crash is caught up this muuntain and thrown to that and to that, and goes echoins down upon the horizon; so down through the cour.su of time the men that have conspired in this infamous thing will have the thun der of indignation still reverberating to the latest day. i met co Yd. siv rit i:usco i:tek- PUI3E. v Few people have any idea of the rapidity with which Chicago is becom. ing a great manufacturing center. The statistics gathered by the Secietary of tne Board of Trade for the forhtcotning census report show 3,752 manufactor ies in the cityt giving employment to 1 lSJjproperatives, and iejreseiitiug a t-apital of over 80,000,000. The lalue of the output annually is 5249,000,000; value of material ued 178,000,0000; w.agei paid 37,000,000. Scientific American. That Chicago enjoys i -numerable natural advantages in location, surroun dings, railroad centerings, etc., etc., must bo admitted; but the secret and source of its rapid growth and great prosperity is found in the stirring en terprise and well directed business en ergies of its people, who alive to their best interests individually, permit no opportunity to pass calculated to ex pand and increase the general prosper ity of the city and State. That fewer natural advantages sur round San Francisco is also a fact, but the heaviest obstacle to its greater prosperity has been and is, the absence of energetic, sterling business men, who dare not enture beyond the circum hcribnd limits of trnasparent individual gains and profits. That San Francisco aud the State of California might have been far in advance of present condi tions, admits of no question in the minds cf thinking, practical men who comprehend the facts and possibilities of the case. Had the same degree- of energy bean displayed in developing tho resources of this State, e&tablisliing manufactories, etc, that there has been in securing immense tracts of land and monopolizing hundreds of thousands of acres which should be divided- into farms for Ihe many, thpre would exist a mateiiallv improved condition of things.

Tin's coin-' pany is something entirely different from the enterprises of Ben HoHaday' or Leland Stanford. It has not ' the bluster of the one, not the oppressive bulldoseJspirikofttuotothertlbntfr.veni3 1Fi!iJTrWtBWrllfS business ventures for the purpose of legitimate carrying trade. It asks no" subsidies, and on one occasion actually refunded a subsidy paid to one of its branches while negotiations for its sale to the present owners were pending. Moreover, it has no little inner ring for the repair of steamers and ma chinery, controlled by its officers nnd manipulated nUthe cost nnd detriment of the shareholders. It'does not seek to avoid old and well established cen ters of business, to build up new towns on lands owned by its officers or their pinaforo relations. And last but not least, it does not dabble in pqlitics, nor seek to put up any of its" servants as the only fit men for Congress or Senator.. Its only aim seems to be to make money, nnd so long as it opens up now fields for grain culture and-re-duccs the cost of transporting our crude staples to the markets of tho old world, we are satisfied to see it makd all it can in a legitimate and reasonable manner. On our return from the Eastern Slopo of the Blue mountain, 'wo wrote Mr. H. Yillard our opinions of the probable currying trade of the road if extended to Powder river valley, as well as the class of immigration best suited by early education for such a country. In reply to us, under date of November 10th, Mr. Yillard says: "We increased our capital stock be cause wo wanted to do more bwjnesa. and to do this required more money. Of one thing I can absolutely assure you that the road to Baker City will be brtilt as fast as money will do It." In another part of the same letter he says, ,-I trust that the luineral wealth of Baker county will verify your pre dictions, for what you say is a roi ela tion to nie." The truth is that a trade arising from mines never onco entered the head of Mr. Villard cr any of his as sociates, agriculture being the basis of all fhair ventures iii this region. But the argentiferous galena of Baker county is destined to become an im portant article of return freight for this company. It costs about $48 per ton to carry it thence to Swansea, in Wales, and pay for the reduction of ore. In Nevada it coats 14 to 18 per cord for wood to hoist the ore .from the ground and pump the shafts dry, while about Sparta, in Baker county, wood will not cost over 84 per cord for tho next twenty years. Ilenco with anything like an equal richness of "base metal," the Baker mines will be the better paying property. We have seen enough to justify the belief that what the O. R. & N. Co. has done, is only a title of what they will do. Two years hence jou will see men buying throujh tickets to the Grand Rondff valley, at the steamship office in Liverpool, Havre and Bremen. Mr. Yillard is a' great advocate of irnmigra tion, and so is Mr. Oakes, his right bower at Portland. It means plenty of desirab'e farm labor and mechanics, too, in thn futuro of Oregon. And the dawn of that welcome day is not very far oU In nud Empire. o Everyone who has sailed down tho winding and tortuous channel of Pugefc sound could not have hut marked, when opposite Now Tacomo, the spur or projection which shot up from the top of Mount Rainier; ta the old in habitants and persons familiar with the topography of the mountain it was known as the "pack-saddle," and was, in truth, one of tho chief attractions about the peak. Duiing tho past two weeks thn mountain has been hid from view by the heavy masses of clouds which encircled it. The other day, howovpr, it (merged from them and, Rtood out in all its grandeur, -but to the surrrisft of ono and all. the "pack saddle" had disappeared, and now tho question is: "What has become of itl" Old residents of the vicinity appear to think that, it has fallen into the crater.
