TOW AM) COUNT V.
The Oswego Iiiox Works. Mr. Geo. II.
BeldQi recently gave an article upon the
Oswego IronCWorks of this county, which
contains some very interesting statistics.
Mr. Belden is superintendent of the works,
and conseqsnlly knows where.;! he
speaks. He says : S. Ladd. Esq.. is
President ofthe company, and among lfs
shareholder are numbered soige of
our best buMiioss meji, also m ban
Francisco and New York City. The
capital stock is S5;MUKK. This is the fir.
Bnvdunii furnace erected on the 1'acifiY
cof st. andis situated at Oswego, on the
lft bank of the Willamette river, eight
miles fouth of Portland, and in the heart
of a large iron ore disiriet. The beds of
i ore wLieu are iwi'ij

of a mile to two miles distant from the
furnace. The lands upon which the ore is
j,,!!!! I in large epiautities, is contracted to
the company, and is contiguous to the
' furnace property. The quiiity of ore is
approximately the same throughout the
entire VlUtriot around t furnace, and is
found under the same geological coridi

the basalt, and is itself covered with de
tritus from the hisrher basaltic cliffs. an.Q

veins) are irregular in shape and depth ;
& generally flUmed at an angle ofQ-ight or
ten degrees, and seem to have been de
posited from oiiiuon in iheMrreguhir de
pressions of the lava. No iron lias been
found excent underlaid bv this lava a
poft and porous rock, easily worked by
pick al shovel. The stripping varies
from a few1 inches to ten and twelve feet ;
no drifting or'Smbering will, therefore, be

feet; though Ik' Is are known of probably
not less than thirty feet in cdo-e proximity
to those mo-t developed. The analysis by

Fn;n:.ESoMKTiMK.s Lie. Last week an
item appeared in the Oregon news col
umns of this paper from the Columbia
ZY(5s which stated that the boats of the$
Oregon Steam Navigation Company had!
transported in lGf. from Portland to L'raa
t:i.(?CD7o,00 ) tons, and to Wallula 25.000
tons, m iking two hundred thousand tons
of frieght for the year. JThe statement
bears apparent falsity on itr face, but was
inserted without proper thought. Think
o: it: lue loiuj. aav have not boats to do

to pay more handsome .dividends then they

the latter paper was Wot aware of its

about time that our citizens should inquire
the whereabouts of the gun donated by
the Secretary of War to Oregon City,
upon the recommendation of President
Lincoln, just previous to the assassination.

are well m'ormed regarding the secret of
success. They not only realize the bone

promptly without grumbling, and in addi
tion reward o pnnterwith some needed
article in their line of trade, besides all of

was a favorite expression of our frieaid
Ford, and when a man like MrO'Conuor
put Is up stakes we think of it. We'mder
stand that the What Cheer has been dis
posed of, and in fact all of Mr. O'Connor's
real estate will be sold as soon as possible.
We trust that he may cast his lines iu
pleasant places in future.
Tiie Okkgox Branch Mint. We have it
from perfect!' reliable sources that the
Oregon branch mint, which was located at
tlie Dalles, has been changed to Milwaukee,
in this county. There can be no objection
to this change, for one reason at least :
viz the convenience of public. If a miner
has to go to Portland to deal, and his dust
is sent back to the Dalles for coinage,
what loss of time is there to have the
branch mint at Milwaukie. It is nearer to
Portland, au l there is a good McAdamized
road, two lines of steamers, and a tele
graph.Qonnecting the places.
P::i:soxal. We have had the pleasure
of meeting iu Oregon City Mr. Isaac Bar

and toofc-Cvith him to' Portland the first

v'ertr-er in the h.Ti:nri:'si;. and bemjr o&l

is no wonder thatlie is meeting with de
served success in his business pursuits.
