J ' .OREGON SENTINEL. JACIUU.VVII.LE Saturday, August- 20, 1881. JfF.1V OVEKLAND KOITK. A party of engineers f ullj equipped for business, has started out from Rose burc, under Jlajor Stahlbonr, an ex perienced engineer, for the purpose of laying out a route from Roseburg to California on a new lint-. Instead of striking for the Central Pacific IL It. at Redding, in California, as has al ways been-contemplated heretofore, it is the purpose of-Villard evidently to cut loose from that company altogeth er and construct a line much farther west and go diroctly to Cloverdale, the present northern terminus of the road known as the North Pacific Coast R. RJ This road, until quito recently, was controlled by Peter Donahue, the San Francisco capitalist and steam boat man. This road was recently sold for &LflOLQflP, and itJs.gen15cfc.U3 believed that the great-Oregon syndi cate, under the direction of Henry Vil lard, has purchased it with a view to being independent of the C. P. R. R. The-movement here reported in relation'-to-sending out a surveying party to run a line through to Cloverdale leaves little doubt in our mind that the theory that the Oregon company havo the Donahue road is the correct one. Jacksonville will be left off the line by this now survey, but if it isofl sufficient importance as a business center there will bo aj branch road running from the main line- to- that city. There isa surveying party now at work in Josephine-county laying a line through that county. They find less difficulties to overcome in-the matter of grades than on the old line southeast through Jackson county, and the line-will bo very much-straight-cr and hence shorter by the new route. It is said that the railroad- authorities expect to have the road1- running: through from Portland to San Fran cisco within two years time. Port land Telegram. THE rULSIIKT CONDITIO. The condition of President Garfield took another sudden chango for the worse last Monday night since which time he has been lying in a very crit ical condition, and the physicians, in charge acknowledge that there is very little hope of. his- recovery. Nearly seven weeks have elapsed, eiuco the shooting, and while it is gratifying to know that the President still lives, yet the fact remains that he is growing weaker each hour, with no .indication of improved condition. The main cause of the set-back, to use the words of Dr. Bliss, is that "his stomach has gon back on him." It rejects all that it taken into it, and, worse still, en tirely empty as it must be, the vomit ing continues at short intervals,, causl ing rapid prostration and a pulse beat that sometimes reaches 130. The symptoms that have been most dreaded have all been delvclopcd, whilo those most eagerly expected by the doctors havo not appeared. The very latest from the President, received by telegraph yesterday even ing, states that1 his condition is some what improved and there is again a hope for his ultimate recovery. The bulletin at the time mentioned stated that his pulse was 105, temperature, 98, respiration 19, Henry Tlllnrd. An exchange gives the following personal description of the man who is at present more talked of than any other man in the State: "Mr. Villard is aged about fifty years, is five feet eleven inches in hoight, and weighs about 210 pounds. He is of fine, well proportioned form, very mild in dress, and walks with tho air of a man whom prosperity has not spoiled. He is indeed-a genial gentleman bright, quick in speech and action, and possessed of jv wonderful amount of lr.agnrtiirc. His-frank, hearty manner and clear, full voice are attractions in his favor difficult to surpass, but tho most re markable point about him is his fac. It is strong without being harsh, de termined without being stubborn. He hss light grayish blue eyes, which look right at you in a manner to speedily dispel all formality and nervousness, while his forehead is high and well formed, shaded by jet blade hair of nmple quantity. A close-cropped- iron grey mustache shadows a mouth of more than ordinary expression the whole miking up a gentleman of fine personal appearance. Last Monday the attorneys for Mr. Joseph Simon, contestant for the Port land Mayoralty, served notice on Mayor Thompson of their indention to ask tho Circuit Court at its first sitting for a writ of review. One of Mr. Simon's legal ad risers expresses the opinion that his client would carry tin case into the Supreme Court as soon as Judge Stott's patipnee was exhausted, and keep up tho contest until the last resort had bten exhausted. ARTIFICIAL STO.tF. CEMLST AHD IKEI-GATIOV. Many years ago Mr. Buckwelb pro posed the following plan for the man ufacture of artificial stone. Taking fragments of alone sufficiently large to go freely into his mold, he filled up tho interstices with stones of various sizes, and then pour in a mixture of chalk and Thames mud or Mercy mud burnt together. This cement being poured into the mold the whole was rammed together by falling hammers, andasthe mold was perforated the water was forced out and the resulting stone so hard, when removed from the mold, that it rang when struck. In 18-14 Mr. llansome conceived the idea of making mill-stones out of the fragments. He experimented for ten yoars and finally with tho aid of steam made good mill-stones out of fragments of rocks and a cement out of a solution of' flints and soda or potash. He first reduced the ordinary soda ash of com merce to the condition of caustic soda udUl-'Sftto-a.'Gd. eJteatn. Then he added a quantity of quick lime and thorough ly mixed together. The soda by this process deprivod of the' carbonic acid which it contains by the quick lime forming with it a carbonate of lime. By this means the solution becomes very costic and it will dissolve flints, and to make it smooth he added to the lime soda and flints a quantity of caus tic baryta, obtained by burning the commercied carbonate of baryta with wood charcoal. The general propor tion of the materials used in making artificial stone are about the following: Ten pints of sand, one pint of pow dered flint, ono pint of clay and one pint of the alkaline solution of flints. These ingredients are first well mixed in a pug-mill, and kneaded until they are thoroughly incorporated, and the whole mass becomes of a perfectly uni form consistency. When worked up with clean raw materials, the composed possesses a putty-like consistency, which can he molded into any re quired form and is capable of receiv ing very sharp and delicate impres sions. By changing the kind of sand they have succeeded in making good window and door sills, grind-stones and excellent mill-stones, which are now being used in England, France and in some of the cities of tho United States. In 1876 . H. Hamilton inyented a machine and a cement of sand and Portland cement for the purpose of carrying water for use in houses and for irrigation, and he makps 2-inch continous pipes in California for eight cents per foot. A large vineyard on the railroad between Sacramento and Benicia was examined by the writer of this article last year. It was a perfect success. The only drawback to the making of great quantities of this pipe in Southern Oregon and Northern Cali fornia is the transportation is the Portland (England) cemont from San Francisco or Portland, Oregon. There are somo gontlemen from Oak land, Cal., now here, who propose to lay good and substantial pipe in this and Lake counties for 15 cents per foot. And if somo enterprising gen tleman would make the Portland out 01 me uregon limestone and miners mud of Jackson county, great quanti ties of this pipe could be laid all over this county on a cheap scale. We have in Jackson county nearly every kind of rock, sand and mud, that is found in Portland, England. So, why not make the cement in Oregon? There is an artificial bed of lime in the "desert" between Stewart's creek and Rogue river, which was used by B. F. Davis in 1855 in building a chimney in this town before any lime stone was discovered in this county. The Scientific American sats: "Portr land cement is now made, says Wag ner, by making bricks of an intimate mixture of limestone and clay, drying tbem in the air and burning them in a tall shaft furnace from 45 to 100 feet, 12 feet in diameter, with a strong grate 4 feet from the bottom." The manu facture of Portland cement is now car ried on in all parts of the world where limestone and clay are to be found. Ten yards muslin for 1.00 at tho New York Store. Office of Schultz & Von B.uiaEX, ) 129 California street, cor. Front, San Francisco. ) John L. Burks, Agent To the Trade: Pn-ctical experience has demonstrated to us that the trade re quires a choice old Bourbon for immedi ate use. For it is well known that straight whisky that is absolutely pure requires age, great care and attention, and our old Davenport whisky possesses all the above qualities- The "rain used in the distilla tion of our J. II. Davenport whisky is carefully selected from tho finest, richest and very best crown in the slate ot Ken tucky. "The water iS drawn from one of the finest limestone springs in the state, the peculiar properties of which have gained lorKcntucKy whiskies such world wide celebrity. This process makes our J. II. Davenport a purcr hand made, sour mash whisky, and we claim that for deli cacy of flavor, purity and medicinal qual ities, it stands unexcelled. Yours truly, ScnuLrz & Vox Barges. From and after this date J. P. McDanicl & Co. Jarksonvilllc, will keep the justly celebrated Davenport, pure straight whis ky exclusively. ix latiiomiM.
