Th Fourth, everywhere, was glori
mlsly observed last Saturday. The cele
bration at Portland called an immense
crowd of people together there. Between
that, and the match game of base ball at
Vancouver, our city was nearly depopula
ted. In company with our friends Mr. and
' Mrs. Swafford, of this precinct, the P:ditor
"wife, and babies, attended the celebration
' nd pic nicia the vicinity of 5lr-Welch's
place, in Milwaukee precinct. The order
of Good Templars in that region, Lone

gether with the good people around, had
provided a table, and seats, in the tine Oak

The day was uncomfortably warm, in
many parts of the State, from all accounts
but at the place above indicated was real

in the .State-,'' caused none to feel other
wise than happy. The children especially,

comfort is always a pleasure to those

that Mr Owen lost !

been erroneous. A note from him to us
reads as follows :
En. I'ATEKriusE :
An item, published in your paper of the

horses I lost a short time sincewere pois

killed themselves. By publishing this

Corn has heretofore been considered
uncertain in Oregon at least some parts
of the State, but we were pleased to see,
c . . , . . , .. ...
un oaiiiuiay iasi, many line looking
patches of corn growing iu this country,
and we understand that there is much
more of it that may be seen. Our fellow
townsmen Win. 1J. Partlow has planted a
farm this year, and corn was included in
the list of productions which he is cultivat
ing. Last year, ia the garden of Mr.
Dlanchaid, at Canemih, we saw as fine
corn, ripened, as we have ever seen ea?t
Of the Mississippi. We do not think that
corn could be found to do well in this
valley uniformly, but it will par well to
cultivate it in places. With the exception
of a strip of land in the lower part of Cal
ifornia, corn cannot ba produced in that
State with any degree of certainty. We are
informed Walla Walla Valley. W. T., is a
good corn region. The crop there usually
pays better than either wheat or barley.
This year the farmers of Watia Walla Val
ley are devoting a large share of their at
tention to corn. We obseived by the
Statesman, some time since, that Mr. Ire
land. Assessor for the county, Lad return
ed some 2000 acres assessed in corn, and
that the Ggurcs would be materially in
creased before he should complete his
labors.
Mr. John Myers sheriff elect of Clacka
mas county, took charge of his new duties
on Tuesday morning last. The first offi
cial act of Mr. Myers was to open a shutter
of the Court room, protrude his face to
ward the street and cry ! Now most men
might think that it was an ur usual tiling
for a sheriff to cry ; but it is not about
the last act performed by ex-sheriff Burns
was to cry the adjournment of County
Court, which was taken up by his suc
cessor on the following day "This aud
nothing mere."
- The body of young Wallis, drowned
in th Clackamas on the 2:3d. was recover
ed on Saturday evening, and respectably
buried on Sunday. Dr. Barclay summon
ed a jury, and a Coroners inquest was
held, which resulted in a verdict of acci
dental drowning. Mr. Wallis wa3 a na

A writer in the 1,'urul Xctv Yorker
says: I recall instances Where farmers
went ahead with improvements without
counting the cost, till it took the farms to
pay for them. Improvements are a very
nice thing, if one has the cash to make
them; if not. beware of the temptation.

It is notjknown to many persons that
the common elder bush of our country is
a great saievjnard again; t the devastations
of insects. Ifanyonewillnotice.it will
be found that worms or insects never touch
the elder. This fact was the initial-point
of experiments of an Englishman in It) 91,
and he communicated the results of his ex-
pcriments to a London rtiagazlne

practical results as asserted by an English
experimenter that the leaves of the elder,
scattered over cabbage, cucumbcr.srpiash
es, and other plants subject to the ravages
of insects, may be saved by placing on the
branches, and through the tree, bunches of
elder leaves.
Gain-inu. On Tuesday last the editor of
the E.N't?'RpnT;.j was seen standing on a

result was that the 171j ib weight went up

think that he had to gain but abt'ut a hun
dred more to get even with Capt. Conch,
or other ''heavy" friends in Portland, who
formerly used to btag of their superior

A very bold robbery was perpetrated
in Yamhill county, on Monday last, on the
road between Dayton and Lafayette. The
heroes of the act are unkoown. The vic

of Yamhill county. We learn the follow
ing particulars from Capt. Apperson of the
steamer Union: It seems that Mr. Eckeis
had been residing at Dayton during the

and papers together with about $900 00 in
currency, to Lafayette for his final settle-
