Winter has reigned supreme in Jackson county during the past week. Snow lies on tlie ground to the dep ii of two or th'ee inches in the valley and a mi eh greater depth on the hill and mountains. Tim thermometer has been very low for this section, rang--ing from eif-ht-abovr ero in the early 'Saorning to forty in thtf ahade in the .tnUdle and latter part jof the day. This degrt of cold, while not comparatively great, is so unusual here as tu he regard ed excessive. Farming is at a stand-still tod business very dull. Such weather, however, coming at this lime of the year operates to retard the development of bads and assures a bountiful fruit crop for the coming ye r. The following re port of cold in other putts of the country ii taken from the Orcgonian ofJanua-y 8th. . BroKAXE Fitts, W. T., Jan. 8. The cold upell lowered the last four years' record through ihis section of the country yesterday. In Spokat.e Falls the mercu ry at the U. S. station touched 19 be low zero. At TalouM! City it was to be low; at Ft. Spokane 34 below; at Lewis ton 5 below; and at Walla Walla 4 below. In the Cceur d'Alene the weather is very severe. St. Pacl, Jan. 8. To-night's weather report shows the following below zero; Huron, Dak., 2G; St Vincent, 0; Fort Totten, 30;FortBuford, CO; Swift Cur rent, 30. At Belgrade lat niht the IbeTnome'er registered 49 below. It will be seen that as compared with the places named above, the people of Jackson county re enjoying summer weather. It ii difficult to appreciate a difference of 40 to 50 degrees in tempera tire when that difference represents an excess tt cold or heat. Valentines day next. Egss are w.rfth 25 cts. perdozen.

A well known and very well to do yonng gentleman of Jacksonville, a pretty fair kind of fellow as men go, looking fo the comfort and security of hi3 declining years, for a place "where the sunshine and shadow would serve to amuse" "him and the balmy breezes wonld feast his olfactories on the aroma of a thousand flowers, as ho should sil in his large arm-chair on Mis own broad porch and gaze, through his gold rimmed spectacles, at the illimitable stretch of fertile fields which separate 4jim then from want, or at the bovine horde which stand a guarantee to him for every luxury his full-fed form may wish, this gentleman took to himself a farm, we know not how, but to himself a farm he took among Sams Valley 'sclassic hills. Not wishing to anticipate the comforts of his golden age, he let his place to some good farmer "on the shares" and agreed to take his part entirely in corn. TheL day by day he stood and gazed along the dusty highway leading north, and in his fancy saw team after team, an unnum bered throng, moving with heavy loads yot eager pace, bringing to his bursting granary the golden com, his profits from the farm. So anxious did he get about the ways and means to be employed to get iiis com anu gst it uumu wu frequently he interviewed the honest men who lived in that same portion of the world where lay his farm, and asked them how so great a task could tie ac complished with the least expense. One man, a genius by the way, who works for Uncle Sam and gives the people round about their mftil, devised a plan which operated to a charm. Some good old man, with good intent, asked for a large sized envelope, one day, in which to put some things he wished to send away, and was refused. "When he would know the reason why he could not get that which he wanted very much, the man of such inventive mind informed him" that thejast and only envelope he had of such or equal size he must reserve to send the com by mail Irom Charley Nickell's J farm to that gentleman's post-office box inJacksonville. Whether or not the corn I-; Uiis way has been brought to town, we hive not been informed, but hews of how it will be brought has more reporters to the laughing crowd than are employed in Jhe "patent outside" office of Carlisle's. Thus rudely ended an ambitious dream. How many dreams in this way have an cndl A world ot wealth is anticipated; 4 few grains of com are realized. A life of ease is seen through the glass of hope; years of unceasing toil are measured out tous hv the hand of destiny. But Chsries is'brave, and when a man says "corn" JiVgrins upon the outside anyway. MERRITT'Sl To Fall and Winter Buyers! ,.J. IsTotkt and.
