A dispatch from Corvallis on the 24th speaks of trouble at the Alsea reserve. There is a general muss among them, and Agent Simpson notifies Settlers to j Le on their guard. Santa Axxa. This Government j made no more official interposition to ' save Santa Anna's life than it did in I the case of Maximillinn. It merely expressed the hnpc that he would not bo treated otherwise than as a prison er of State. o You no Iturbide. Augustin Itur bide the adopted heir of Maximilian, is now at Kosedale, the residence of his grandmother, Mrs. Green, on the heights of -Georgetown, and is a ro bust boy fcur years old looking as if he might put ia a claim for his inher itance some day, if Uncle Sam does tiot absorb it in the mean time. Effects of theYY ar. Mr. A. S. IJralley of this city, has received a letter from his brother in Texas, who passed through the war and now corroborates the Jtiultiplied evidences the devastation that has followed. There can be no doubt but that the -consequences of the late terrible war were especially5 frightful in the South. Mr. Bralley says that demoralization in Texas pervades all the intermedin ate channels of society. Everything is on the down grade, and the future dq1) with hope, taxation is already at ruinous figure, and confiscation is fob lowing close in the rear. With such a picture we can scarcely credit the desire of the fact; ons there for anoth- cr wan Maryland Discrimination.

Separate Supreme Court. From present indications, it is most un likely that the question, whether or not. wo shall have a separate Supreme Court, will be a prominent one before the next Legislature. If this is so, the legislators being the deputies of the people, sent to (Jeneral Assembly to make laws and reg ulations for the protection of individual rights, and the advancement of the gener al welfare of ihe Commonwealth, it is but just that this matter should be ean- vassed by the people, and the will of the mass, in regard thereto, ascertained and made know before the meeting of the Legislature. If this is done, our Legislators can act advisedly upon the subject. For one, we think that a separate Supreme Court would be better, and give more general satisfaction, than the present sys tem in this State ; and we will give our reasons for this opinion. Our Supreme Court, as now constituted, is composed of the Judges of our Circuit Court, five in number ; being the same Judges in both courts, but with different titles Circuit Judges, and Supreme Judges. The Constitution of the State provides, that every decision made in the Supreme Court, shall be made by those Judges, or a majority of them, who did not try the cas3 in the Court below. Hence, in compliance with this provi sion, the Judge, before whom the case was tried in the Circuit, does not sit in the hearing of that case in the Supreme Court, and is supposed to have nothing whatever to do with it. This supposition holds good out side of the consultation room, at all events. But, that the respective Judges meet with the other members of the court in the consultation room, during the time that the cases from their circuits are under consideration, is a fact well known to all who attend the Supreme Court. But. whether or not, a Judge, whose decision on the circuit is being reviewed, explains the case to the other Judges in this con sultation room, is not known to out-siders. There may be no such explanations given, and such a course may be right enough. but men are apt to be suspicious, and liti gants do not like to see a Judge, who has rendered a decision against them, go into the consultation room with those who are to reverse, or affirm th.it decision. Hence, we frequently hear persons condemn our system of judicature, and pronounce in favor of a separate Supreme Court. This system then, works a great evil, in this ; it destroys that respect for the decisions of our courts, necessary to procure a cheerful obedience to the laws. Again, men are reciprocal beings, and are apt to act upon this principle : If you do a kind act to me. I will return it in kind, if possible ; and, if you do an unkind act to me. I will retaliate, if opportunity of fers. And it is a fact that but few per sons can have their opinions overruled and decided to be wrong, and, yet regard such action as a kindness and a favor. If this prineiplt! of reciprocity exists in the breasts of the members of the Court, it might influence their opinions, however unconscious of the fact they might be. The object of a Supreme Court, is to have the law administered as it is. free from any feeling or bias that might exist, when the court and the parties are acquainted ; and that justice might be done according to the letter and spirit of ihe law. For these reasons, if for no others, many per sons think that the Judges of our Circuit Courts ought not to be called upon to pass upon each others decisions. Cut the greatest objection to our pres ent system of jedicature, is found in the press of business, and want of time with the individual members o the court. Each Judge is required to hold Circuit Court Venn one to three times a vear in each county of his circuit ; and this occupies the greater portion ot his time. Hence, wlu'n the Preme Court is held, with the usual calendar ot lrom thirty to nity cases. Judges have to continue a portion, or hurry through, in order to meet ihe de mands of their respective circuits. To continue a portion of the cases, will not help the matter, for they will have no more time, or a less number of cases at the next term ; therefore, the business must bo dispatched. This prevents the court from giving the cases that leisurly and careful examination that justice and a cor rect application of the law require. It is unjust, alike to the court, and to litigants, and calls loudly for a remedy. And further, we freqently hear 1 iwycrs complain that the decisions of the Supreme Court, are not published for years after wJ1, prol)ablv 1)e found in the fact, that j the court has not time to prepare them for : publication sooner. Iut tae question of additional cost and expense, comes up. and is urged against the establishment of a separate Supreme Court That question of additional ex- pense does very well for political bun combe and demagogism, but for nothing else. A Supreme Court, composed of three judges, at a salary each, of three thousand dollars per year, would be an additional expense of nine thousand dol lars per year. By the census and assessment of 1SG5. the taxable property of this State, was as certained to be S20.125.915. in value. In the year ISO."), the value of assessable property in this county, was $1,005,591; in 16G7, il is assessed at $1,721,085, an in crease of $119,301 intwo years, and it is probable, at least, that the increase of wealth has been equally great throughout the State. Then, if this additional nine or 540.139 in the Treasury, for those two ! ye,.rs alone. Enough to pay the salaries i of the Judges of the Supreme Court for i the two ycarsl' wu1j yet a surplus of ! 522,139. in the Treasury for contingent ex- penses. ic. j At aU events, the people pay the taxes, ; necessary to fustaia the State Govern- - ! ment- !l(l tfcey have the rijrht to have , Uou t iucrensfd to Hecr'TUjdl.:h it. ST! OKEGOX Speaking of the wheat crop ihe Orcgonian says: " At the close of trie harvest there was probably a surplus of 2,000,000 bushels of wheat ia the Willamette valley. Some of this, though probably no large amoutit, was sold before the late ad vance in prices. But the bulk of the wheat is still in the valley; and ow ing to the low stage of water in the upper river, the principal part of the croP has nardly begun to move to ward the market. As the advance in prices was quite unexpected, an'.l but little wheat had been bought up by millers and shippers, the farmers will get almost the whole benefit of the rise. The advance, if f-ustained, will therefore put a large amount of money in circulation, which will ex ercise a beneficial effVct upon busi ness for a year to come. At least $1,500,000 will be distributed throughout the valley, relieving far mers of many of their embarrass ments and enabling them to engage with new vigor in the work of anoths er year. If they can dispose of their gram at fair, remunerative rates, thev will hardly let the opportunity pas to do it, as the fluctuations and un certainties of the market are often such as to defeat all calculation. The results of the present crop assum ing that the market will be sustained till the whole surplus is disposed of, will show what our people might do if they could rely on obtaining a steady market for the products of the soil. Agriculture alone would make this valley rich; and aided by rnanu factures, and with the various indus tries supported by a military and itiN tei lacing of interests, the country would soon attain a very high de gree of prosperity. If the amount of wheat which the State now has to dispose of were twenty-fold greater, we should have a better market, be-, cause buyers would know where to come to purchase. We ought to produce more of everything than we have ever yet dorr; and though it often appears that there is little en couragement for the farmer, all he "-'its is patience ar.d industry to bring him out right at last. The markets are often dull, but it is worthy of observation that every few years farm products are in good de mand. The energetic farmer who is prepared to take advantage of the markets, as .all our farmers should be every year, cannot fail to make his occupation a profitable one.'' The Dalles children had n pleasant excursion over the Celilo Railroad on the 14th. Tile Mountaineer says of it: The party left, the O. S. N. Company's depot at 1 o'clock p. m.. numbering in all, children, teachers and invited guest?, over two hun dred persons. In the course of half an hour the train stopped at the " Tumwater" for the purpose of giv ing all who wished, a chance to see these beautiful falls. After spend ing a few minutes in visiting the falls, the sound of the bell notified " all aboard" and in a few minutes more we were at Celilo. The Company here have a storehouse over a quar ter of a milc'm length, built on an in cline along the water's edge, so that they can load their boats at any stage of the water. This large building was almost empty, so that the chil dren had plenty of room to amuse themselves in any and every coneeivc able manner. Games of all kinds was immediately commenced, and everybody joined in the fun. About three o'clock the lunch was spread out and eaten with an exceeding good relish. At four o'clock we were again summoned to the cars and bv five o'clock we were safe at home, The Mountaineer says that J. W. P. Iluntingon, Esq , has been re appointed Superintendent of Indian affairs for Oregon. This no doubt will be astonishing news for a num ber of nsoirants for this office; but nevertheless we know it to be true, for we have seen the papers. Mr. Huntington enjoys the enviable rep utation at Washington, of being the most correct with his business affairs of any Superintendent. That he is an eflicient officer and well under stands his business, is known to everybody. lie is now in the Klamath region, with the annuity goods for those Indians. Marriage Broker A person of this class in England, in reply to a letter freun a young lady, said thatlio . . ' b . . ui nrst-ciass position, uiui vviui iu comes trom JoU to j,UU(J a year, who are anxious to marry: so that he can guarantee a good marriage to any lady. He adds : liI will send some cartes de visite for your inspection. Among my clients arc officers, clergy men, merchants, and gentlemen of in dependence. You may depend on strict good faith." In a pamphlet which he sends the lady, he describes his system and its success. He avers that "during the last eighteen years he has married upwards of five thousand couples happily, who, bad it not been for him, would still have been in sin gle misery. He points out that mar riage bv negotiation is the rule in most foreign countries and in all roy al families" and urjes that Unions thus brought about are productive of as much real happiness as those known as love matches, which young people make for themselves, in which the motive power is usually a straight nose, smooth waltzing, a neat foot and ankle, an exorbitant chignon, or a heavy moustache. The Status of Ocr PartV. We have before intimated that it appear ed to be time that Union men were looking to the status of the party. Says the Roseburg Ensign we now say and verily believe, that it is time the Republican press lift a firm and united voice against the folly of the sentamentalists among us who will, if they are ; . rmUted.through their in j herent Iove for the inferior races, uK i timately bring upon the party a na 1 tional defeat! THE STATE FAIR. SALfeM, Oct. 10, 1SG7. SECOND LETTEtt TO THE ENTERPRISE. If I carry out my promise and let you see the Pair as 1 saw it, I am afraid much that i shall write will be, ere this reaches you, ''old news;' tor looking at the reports of friend G. of the Orejonian, C. cf the Unionist, and C. of the Record, there is rno chance for me to make an impression from a reporter s stand point, so 1 must resort to a trick, learned at fairs when a boy, more fond of seeing a horse race than now ; which was: to get underneath the big men in order to get a closer view than they. Commencing then with the founda tion of agriculture, I desire to show you the plows. Here are extensive rows of these useful implements, of eastern manufacture, sent here by those interested in their sale. There is not a bid plow in the entire lot, but different farmers will choose dif ferent patterns, as experience upon their part guides the reason of prefer ence. The plow of Eistern make, however, which seems to me to com- bine the most good qualities is the Turf and Stubble plow, (Smith's patent) made of cast cteel, by Col lins 6c Co., Hartford, Conn. The Oregon mechanic who can get up such a plow at such a price, w ill de serve well of his fellow citizens. Of plows of home make the Web Foot .Mr. Lewis, of your city, maker) was awarded the blue ribbon. It is a good plow, and for heavy lands it is doubtful whether any imported plow is its equal. Mr. Dowen, of Roseburg, had a style of plotr which in my judgment makers would do well to exainh.e thoroughly, for it seems to me that it is likely to more than fill the place of Collins' cast steel ! plow, as suitable to all kinds of work in all kinds of io. A portion of j the plow on exhibition the maker claims ,u his own invention, and for which he lias a patent dated May 1SG7. This consists of fin additional landside end cutter combined, which is bolted on to the landside proper. 1 do not care much about the pat. cnted portion cf the plow, as the cutter can be attached in various other ways, and tho landside is not deep enough for deep plowing, being not more than sever, inches. 1 am acquainted with farmers who plow their land sometimes a foot deep, and have a landside of that depth at tached to every new plow they pur chase. The great point in Mr. Rowen's plow is the shape of the mold board, which is formed on the turninir principle, and has not the I square set toward tne land wlr. li ; most of our plows have. JJr. i Douthit's gang plow was shown in operation, and attracted the attentive regard of many farmers. Next to the plows como seed sow ers. There were two on exhibition. of Oregon invention, one by Mr. J. II. Douthit, the other by Mr. Olney Fay, both of Linn county. I faw that of the former in operation, ami think it a good thing. It received the first premium. Mr. Fa's ma chine is a combined seed sower and cultivator. Roth are provided with a comfortable seat for the operator. Next came the reapers and thresh ing machines, wagons, express w a st erns, and carriages, of which the mak ers may with justice lie proud. Mr. J. W. Lewis exb'.bitcel a :icat double seated top bugiry, upon which he took a first and second premium. First as a double bugirv, find second its a single bti'jrgy. Its chit f attrac tion wns the new patent tire, and sliding seat. Ed. Enterprise John Cox, of Starr's Point, had a very queer looking machine invented by himself, for mortising building timbers. A series tf cog-wheels arc so arranged, as by ihe working of a lever to work a hollow chisel to and fro in the bottom of a mortise, mak ing a square hole and carrying the chisel down ns fast as the boring ma chine will force tho augur into the wood. The specimen on exhibition was rude in point ef workmanship, but it so commended itself to the committeoas to secure the blue rib bon. I should not wonder if it would he the means of commanding its in ventor to the good graces of the world. Roth Mr. Rovven and Mr. Cox are working blacksmiths. An otner invention by another working blacksmith, (Mr. Woodbury vt Sa lem,) is a reaper worked by a belt and cam-wheel ; no cog-wheels, no crank. The miniature specimen shown by Mr. Forsythe, of the Salem steam saw mill, (who is understood to be interested in the invention.) seems to promise all that is claimed for it. Another inventor thinks he has n-ot an " idea"' which shall render the master-wheel of threshing machines unnecessary. The contrivance is cer tainly very ingenious and may prove very effective. Stiil another illustration of Ore gon's inventive power, was shown bv Mr. A. M. Prirgle, of Salem. ft consists of a ' coring tube" so con nected with one of the latest and most effective styles of turn table paring machines, as to core and quarter the apple with no more loss of time or labor than would be necessary to take the pared apple from the "machine without coring. 1 understand a pat ent is applied for. The interest which the articles on exhibition in the shed devoted to the class of implements and machinery drew around them, show beyond a doubt that the minds of our invent ors and machinists are on the alert for home machinery for the manufacture of machinery enough to supply aj our wants, and not be tributary to the inventive genius of New England its machinery, and its natural powers This brings me to the sKiii or tnat famous region, which .... t t " was on exhlbition-Swa ii's turbine to jndge critically of the merits of this machine, I asked the opinion ot an expert in such matters, who was examining into its construction with a great degree of interest. He pave it with evident caution to the effect that " the price at which an article could be furnished was always an im portant consideration, but wcro the price of this wheel and Level's double turbine wheel equal, lie shoulj still prefer thi.-Y' on account of some points in its construction different from the double turbine, one of which he has in operation. The question of price is of considerable importance, for I suppose t lie difference between i-'.OA -iiwl ft(Hl wiil sometimes de- cide whether an enterprise, beneficial i to the country, rdiall be begun this j year er at some time indefinite in the j future. Another Eastern invention, Lee's farm and carriage gate, was set up so that its operation might be seen. 1 could not see much advantage it promises over the old style hinge gate. Having shown you the implements from the plow to the water wheel, T desire now to show you other instru mentalities of mail's happiness. We will, if you please, look over the stock on exhibition, the exhibitors of winch I named in my first litter. Sliil looking underneath the great men. let us pass from the beef steak w hich fives us strength for the day's labor to the fine wool cf which the blankets are made under which we seek "tired nature's sweet restorer, balmy sleep. ' CATTLE. The exhibition in this class con sisted entirely of short horns and their grades, and the greater number de rive their origin from the herd of Wri'dit ec King, formerlv of King's Valley. Some of the specimens shown were large too large accord irg to my judgment. There is no denying the fact that for purposes of hand feeding, the short horn takes precedence of any other breed of cattle. Its disposition to give a well raaibied steak r.i return for grass, hay and rutabagas, will not be epiestioned. But my fancy runs toward a more compact animal than the most of short horns are, and even of that breed I prefer the most compact form, which 1 generally find amongst the smallest specimens of the breed. I think, however, that Oregon is much ia need of the Devon stock for its hill ranges, and the Calloway cattle a Scottish polled breed m'ght greatly improve the grazing qualities ot our common cattle. ihe improvement j of the milking qualities of the coin mor. cow might well repay some man of capital (or the introduction of the Ayrshire cattle. There was a mani- fe.st increase of interest shown in this ! branch of farming, which extended to I l'ne vnU'S ,f waking oxen f.r 1 J nere is a disposition sl,OW1 'O' S(,,I1C our tq shown by some of our upland farm ers to go back to the ox fur teaming purposes again. It is Certainly the most economical team m l - i . !,y or oroiicn Janus. THE SHEEP SHOW Gave a greater variety of animals. To look a, the Australian Merinoes, and at the Cotswolds, in an adjoining pen, a person might readily conclude us som1? students of natural history have, that there are two distinct species of sheep. Certainly the va rieties are greatly dissimilar. The qtustion as to which of the breads will answer in the greatest degree the purposes for which sheep lire kept and fed with the greatest profit, to lhe shepherd still finds earnest friends of the sheep on each side of it ; some for short wools, some for the. long. Your correspondent sides w ith bot h, f ivoi ii;g t he long wools on rich lands near market, where only a limited number can bo kept, and on rough and extensive ranges the short wools, ns they will bear short sheep and ll icking in numbers, in comparably the best. S far as the. premiums of the State Society have tended to a solution of the question, it tins gone almost uniformly in favor of the Merinoes and their grades. At this Fair the sweepstake prize for the best buck for wool and mutton, of any breed, was awarded to a thorough-bred Merino, the property of John Minto. The same animal won the same prize last year. Another buck of the same blood and owner ship took the second prize. l:i the other lists of fat shet'p and grades for wool and mutton, the Merino bloods carried all before them. Messrs. Davidson and Minto received all the; premiums on fat sheep but one, on thorough-bred Merinoes, and that one was the - prize on fat wethers won by a pair f yearling high grade Merinoes belonging to A.Carey of Salem. The first prize on ,'. year old graded bucks was awarded to Delos Jefferson. The animal seemed to be a cross between common stock Cotswold and French Merino. The 2 1 was awarded W. I. Aewbv ef Yamhill, upon a buck Merino "and Leicestershire. The rest of the prizes on grades were awarded to Carter Chamberlain of Marion county. They have hired bucks of Mr. Minto for the past four years nud their flock sheared an average of 81 lbs. of the highest priced wool last spring. This is good from me dium sized sheep. I suppose that a flock of Cotswolds would'yield at that rate, but then there is nearly double the weight of carcass to feed. 1 have thought that the breeders of Ct. wolds and that class of sheep are neo-- .tv.w.,6 iu.su e ana nneness of their IVUZ. 10l7ti?J thC ,heaV? the properties which give the creat o -v v J tiit; 1 r 'il'l'f tu n'giectmii: est value to the. rnmtiinn- t,...t " rri .

He also has G head of Cotswokls (imported last winter,) which, as well as 1 recollect, averaged over 12 lbs. Mr. K. is ef the opinion that a breed of sheep, in termediate between the two'race?, can be established. Certainlyif such a race can be formed, it will greatly extend I lie ability of our manufactur ers to supply the increasing demand for the finest possible tissues of woolen goods. It would seem that the manufacturers have an interest in this question which should induce them to come to a closer acquaint- ante with sheep breeders. 1 ur it is plainly to the interest of both parties to understand the wants of the mar- ket. While every other branch of industry has taken pains to have it self represented at the State Fair, the woolen factories of the State have ex hibited nothing. The Pacific Mills of California had some fine under clothing and hosiery on cxlrbition which received the admiration of who had the good fortune to lint out where they were to be seen. Hie troofls wen) made of fine wool, pnr chased in Oregon, and fiom one of the patties who was admiring them 1 re ceived the information that there was a pair ef blankets of remai kable fine ness find finish on sale at the store of Scott fc Morgan, Salem, which were made at ihe Oregon City Mills. Few people who attended the Fair saw those blankets. More Aso.v. TELEO.IIAPIIIC XEtVS. We take the following telegraphic news from dispatches to the Orenonian.
