LETTER FUCM IfEIV YORK.
fraO'f OCCASIONAL CORRESPOKDENT.J
1 O
New Yobk, August Sd, S07.
I would due recreaut to my duty
to you, if I failed to wrke once at
least, since I promised to do so often,
before returning to Orcgou. I sev
eral times attempted to write a letter
for your paper, while in Europe, but
something intervened every time to
delay it? Befjre disposing of the
I'airi question entire it would have
been interesting to yourteaders per
haps to know who was there and
what they went for. The crowd can
oi.ly be likened to
That swarrPof locusts, which God sent
To vex a land rebellious long,
and to hear them ask for everything
imaginable, one would know they
went each witli a private " axe,"
which, if ground to the desired edge
by the grindstone turners, would
eventually be used to lop off many of
the most fruitful branches of the tree
of public good. Ia one sense,
the exposition was a grand success
it brought the people of all
nations and creeds, together under
one roof, where they for a time at
least could operate with harmony.
Daniel Webster once remarked,
o when speaking of the effect of travel
in shortening imaginary distances,
"What a miserable little ball this
K:irth of ours js, now that we have
got to kngw all about it." Your cor
respondent did not see enough of the
European world to realize the blase
sentiment thus expressed by the great
Constitutional Expounder ; neverthe
less he realized that his distance from
the readers of the Enterprise was
tar less than it seemed in imagina
tion a few weeks before, and not so
reat but that a letter could span it,
for I received two copies of the En
terprise: while in Paris, of moder
ately late dates, and a they were
then all the Oregon papers any of us
had, you may rest assured they were
appreciated.
New York is. the same old two-and-sixpence.
All that the mind would shrink from of ex
cesses ;
All that the body perpetrates of bad;
Alhat we read, hear, dream of mau's dis
tresses; All that the devil would, ir run stark mad
is done here on the tnost extensive
scale.
Ad. Stirr is here, at 03 Libery
street, also Captain Keeler, who has
a fuir business future before him.
Hank Green is talking of leaving for
1 ome soon. When he gets back to
Oregon you just ask him about Sans
tiam. Those rich specimens Kenyon
brought here were no temptation to
tho capitalist-ebut they served to block
up Broadway most effectually one
day, in front of a large show-window
where Green had deposited them tor
exhibition. lie was notified to take
them away. Barnum is here he
has a determined spirit, and will
come out all O. K. in season. There
are a great many Oregonians in New
York, but' somehow the " Pacific coast
delegation" appears sparse in num
bers. Its meetings are not held with
so mugh regularity as formerly, and
the "association" now seems to have
one particular feature that is : that
there ro never but two members to
direct its destinies and care for all
its responsibilities one acts as Pres
ident, and the other as Secretary,
and these constitute a quorum for
business. Another notable peculi
arf' is: that one member, while in
session, cannot withdraw without the
m sanction of his associate member.
The rules are verv strincent in this
e respect, and a little hard feeling has,
I have understood, been the conse
iuence. when one member would
como it rather strong," and take
fliH-nntno-e of the forbearance and
virtue of tho other. Although start
ed upon the " Secret Society'' prin
ciple, the details of the aciion of the
Delegation Association are always
made known at the Resort, where
they are enjoyed, laughed, and drank
over, with a ensto that wouia aston
ish any but the initiated
G J BUMMEK.

the Herald are " at it ajiain" on the
conservative and the radical strings
of their Democracy. The Press says:
g " If those who basely deserted the
Democracy, are satisfied of their er
ror, let them come into our ranks and
rote, but beyond that they must earn
by devotion to a cause which they
well nigh ruined."
That's Democracy, but the Herald
answereth, nay !
' Tinman who would return to the
Democratic party on such an iuvita
tion as thai would be too much of a
sneak ever to le trusted.'''
Then the Press says to.that
" All this may be true if politic''
shall be classed among mercantile
pursuits if Democrats are to be
nought ; not made if the Marshal
ship is the legitimate price of ona
Senatorship of another and the be
nignant smiles and patronage of a
Democratic editor another. When
the Herald boasts of tiie changes it
has made in the affairs of Multnomah
county, he should recoiled that merch
andise always changes hand at a
slight advance on the old price."

the advertisement of Mr. Charles A.
Burchardt that this is again the oyster
season.
Gone Soulh. By a private letter
from Portland we learn that Prof.
Rutjes, late of this city, has left for
Charleston, S. C, to remain.
Chronicle We are in receipt of
the Capital Chronicle, No. 1. It is
rather a bull y sheet. Some im
provements will appear in the suc
ceeding chapters, no douht.
Real Estate. On last Saturday
Mr. A. B. Richardson disposed of a
large amount of real property, at
auction, in Portland. Prices vary
ing from 83,000 to $G7 50 per lot,
according to location.
Sample Wheat. Knapp Burrell &
Co., have a sample of choice Georgia
wheat, of the crop of 18G7, which,
the Oregonian says, in this country
would not be ground for anything
except, it might be, for feed.
School Lands Remember that
on the 10th the school lands of this
county will be disposed of. If you
forget it don't complain, as some
folks have, that the sale was not ad
vertised. Gay Poster. How it pleases a
printer to see a fine poster. The
"Job" for the 7th Annual Fair of the
State Agi icultural Society meets the
eye of all. It was done at the 27n
ionist office.
Annual Parade. On liic,i Monday
many of the Firemen of Portland
had a jolly tim e at their annual pa
rade, windius up with a grand ball.
The Vancouver companies were pres
ent with their machines.
Oregon Corn. We
never raise
much of a crop of corns on
the toes
in this land, but the Journal has seen
.specimen of the garden variety
which measured twelve inches in
cngth, and contained G12 keruels.
Likes It. The Editor of the Dem
ocrat likes Albany for its good qual
ities in general, and that phasa or
feature of the city which causes it to
give all humbugs and wide berth in
particular. Did you give Lee cc
Ryland a dollar.
Outrage. A threshing machine,
horse power, and three sets of bars
ness, together with a load of sheaf
grain ( were destroyed by a fire, late
ly, m Lane county, set by some
scoundrel w hose name is unknown to
the owner. Mr. Miller and the Eu
gene City papers.
Indian Fight. A victory was
won by tne soldiers under Lieut.
Force, in a contest with Snake In
dians on Burnt river, few days ago.
The Indians were corralled, when re
treat was impossible, and every one
was killed or captured.
Injured Badly. Mr. E. G.Taylor,
a Portland drayman, was badly hurt
on Saturday last, being caught be
tween the front part of his dray
frame and a post on the wharf. The
horse exerted his utmost strength,
swinging two or three times to the
right and left, as a stalled hoise will
do, while Mr. Taylor was held as in
a vice.
Heroines. Miss Fannie S. Case
and Miss Mary Robinson, both of
Salem lately made the ascent of
Mount Hood. This achievement is
something for them to boast of, as
they are undoubtedly tho first white
females who ever stood on the sum
mit of Mount Hood.
Produce Shipments. The Lafay
ette Courier says: " Mr. Marion
Ilendrex, dealer in produce and gen
eral merchandise at Wheatland, in
this county (Yamhill,) has shipped
from his warehouse during the past
season, lo,5C0 bushels wheat, 3, ISO
bushels oats, 1,225 boxes apples,
15,320, lbs. dried apples and 8,Go0
lbs. wool.
The Lajayetle Courier. On Sat
urday we received a call from Mr.
J. W. Johnson, who has succeeded
Mr. Upton in the Lafayette Courier.
We believe Mr. Johnson to be well
calculated for the position. He is
careful, and a man of good practical
sense to forget his political tenden
cies. Appeal Taken. In the case of the
State of Oregon by A. Rosenheim
ys. II. L. Hoyt, an appeal was taken
to the Supreme Court, by the plain
tiff. The appeal is taken from the
decision of Judge Shattuck over
ruling the plaintiffs demurrer to de
fendants answer, in the contest for
the Portland Marshalship. .
Going Heme. Paymaster Glenn,
who has been in service in this de
partment two years, has been reliev
ed, and ordered to Washington. He
has been an efficient officer, as was
evidenced by his unremitting labors
last summer to bring to justice par
ties who had robbed him of a large
sum of Government funds.
Truant Laws. The Albany Jour
nal says: " We are told that in this
county, there are in one neighbor
hood niue adjoining families, the
heads of whom cannot read nor
write." Such people can have no
just conception of the injuries to re
sult from carelessness with regard to
their growing children. It is de
plorable, and calls for legislative en
actment. In some parts of the East
such people are compelled by law to
send their children ty school. The
ucccjt-ity is Ooviyus.
"50 Tons of Pig Iron.v Ap
pears on the outward manifest of the
Montana Thursday evening.
Good j"eios. A city gentleman
informs the Oregonian that news had
been received from the Ruckle quartz
mill, to the effect that a clean-up has
just been made, resulting in over
$9,000 from one hundred and twelve
tons of rock. The Ruckle ledge is
not played out yet. This is the only
Oregon mill we know of that has
' proved a success.
Death of Jlarshal Keeler. Mr.
Charles Keeler, the fearless, energetic,
and efficient Marshal of Dalles City,
was killed on Wednesday night by a
drunken soldier whom he was at
tempting to arrest. His death is not
alone a bereavement to his wife and
child, but is absolutely a loss to the
Dalles people. Riot cculd not stalk
wild before him.
Honor Among Theives. The
Press says the citizens of Birch Creek
are about to punish theiving Indians.
They suspect that the Umatila In
dians are in league with the Snakes
the Umatillas dojng the stealing
and tho Snakes the hiding. The
Umatilla chief, has gone to Birch
Creek to watch his men and see if
they are engaged in the thefts. He
will aid the whites in ferretinp- out
the guilty ones.
Gov. Woods. The Grass Vallev
Union, a noted Democratic paper,
says of Gov. W oods: " We unhesi
tatingly prorounce him tho ablel
stumper we have yet heard c,,i his
side of the question. He is a fluent
speaker, use forcible and correct
English to express his ideas, and
i4.?. ives all his points with the ease of
a professional political speaker. He
is undoubtedly tho best card the
Radicals have.
A Recommendation. Speaking of
the Santiam mines the San Francisco
Mining Press says: "It seems after
all it takes a Californian to develop
mines, and we doubt not but that
our neighbor, Oregon, would be a
good place for some of our competent
miners to visit. It is known to
abound in minerals, especially the
Cascade range, yet it has never had
parties sufficiently versed in mir.er
alogy, to examine and test its extent
and value. Oregonians are, as a
general thing, liberal to Cabfornians,
and in this case would be aot to be
doubly so." j
In the Crater. -Col. I). C. Smith,
of Col. Williamson's party lately on j
a tour of Mount Hood, descended
the crater which is estimated to be
120 feet deep. He found no distinct
sub crater from which heat or smoke
was perceived, but did discover va
por, or some other light substance,
issuing from seams, aud which seem
ed to possess the qualities of sulphur
and arsenic. Caverns in different di
rections were discovered under the
snow, but were not explored. Col
onel Williamson took all observation
necessary to settle tho hight of Mount
Hood, which the Colonel is yet un
able to determine until other obser
vations are consulted, but he informs
us that the hight of our pet is about
21,000 feet.
Oregon Machinery. Mr. D. Mon-
nastes, the Pioneer foundryman of
Portland, one day last week, cast at
his foundry, several pieces" of ma
chinery for the flout ing mill of Mr.
Kinney, of McMinnville, using on'y
Oswego pig iron. The Oregonian
sys the universal verdict is that the
castings are excellent, combining
both smoothness and strength. Mr.
Monnastes and several other experi
enccd workers in iron say without
hesitation that it is the. best they
ever saw. As compared with Scotch
pig, it is finer and more even in grain
and vastly more difficult to break,
and is of course proportionately su
perior for machinery. The machine
ry cast by Mr. M., it is expected,
will be in place in the mill and run
ning on Saturday, just one week from
the time when the first pig of Ore
gon iron was run off fromthe furnace
at Oswep-o.
We Agree Exactly. It seems
there is one item upon which there is
no great difference between us and
Mr. Abbott, of the Democrat. Were
he to always tell the truth as he does
ia the following lines, we should like
him better : Speaking of the Amer
ican Exchange, at Portland, he says:
This hotel was formerly known as
the Lincoln House, and is situated on
the corner of Washington and Front
streets. It is now conducted by Mr.
Qniniby, a pleasant and courteous
gentleman who thoroughly under
stands his business and spares no
pains to render his guests contented
and comfortable. He keeps his
tables constantly furnished with all
the substantial and delicacies which
the Portland market affords, and his
charges are very reasonable. Per
sons visiting the metropolis would do
well to " hang up" at the American
Exchange.
The M. E Church.Vfe learn
from the M. F. Conference report
that the total membership of the
church within the Conference juris1
diction, is this year 2,SS0; last year,
2,7GD. Total number of proba
tioners, 1,15S; an increase of 552
over last year. Local preachers, 68,
an increase of one. Total number
of church buildings, 43, an increase
of 4. Total valuation of church
property, $148,555. The Sunday
schools number 72, a loss of one.
Number of officers and teachers of
Sunday schools, 534. Number of
scholars, 3,299, an increase of 145.
Volumes in Sunday school libraries
13,982, a falling e ll of 753. The re
port of the Committee on Education
represents the various colleges and
schools under the supervision of the
Conference, to be in a highly pros
perous condition. The total of cen
tenary colh ctions was $o73 70 cur-
ami
$18, 017 ? coin.

Street Education. The Corvallis
Gazette has no objections to the boys
playing ball in front of that office,
but says: "There is one feature of
this sport to which we desire to call
the attention of parents. These boys
are aged from G to 10 in years, but
in profanity and obscenity rival the
shameless profligate of riper age.
While seated in our sanctum, our
blood has been chilled by the con
tinuity of horrid oaths from almost
infant lips. Can it be possible that
any parent, in this enlightened age,
in a nominally Christian land, en
courages their offspring in such lan
guage? Do parents know the amount
of street education their children are
receiving? If not, we think it is a
duty they owe themselves, the child
aud tiie community, that they should.
There is not a father in this commu
nity, we believe, that desires to raise
his child thus; but that very many
youths are thus growing up. all over
"the land, is patent to all. Where is
the remedy Parents hi Corvallis,

beyond your coiitni, and choose as
their associate and companions the
vicious an'a depraved."
UxniN'G. The New York Herald
Zi$s: ' The Northern Democracy, in
view of the approaching campaign,

fuse wilh the Republicans on Grant,
so as to wipe out all existing p'lrty
lines, together with the odious - Cop
perhead record of the War, in order
that fairly and squarely we may have
a new division of parties for 1872
upon the new order of things which
will have ripened by that time under
negro suffrage and the reconstruction
and restoration of the ten outside
Rebel States."
