Of all the a muaatnaMa which can possibly be imagined for a hard-worklyir man. after his dally (oil. or in its Interval, there ia nothing like read ing an entertaining book supposing him to have a taate for it, and supposing him to have a book to read. It calla for no bodily exertion, of which he has had enough, or too much. It relieves hi home of its dullness and sameness, which, in nine cases out of ten is what drives him out to the alehouse, to his own ruin and his family's. It transports him into a livclior and saver and more diversin. ed and interesting sceae : and while he en joys himself there, he may form the evils of the present moment fully as much as if he were ever so drunk; with tho creat advan- tage of finding himself the next day with bis money in his pocket, or at least laid out in real necessaries and comlorts lor nimseit ana his family, and without a headache. Nay, it accompanies him to his next day's work, and if tho book he has been reading be any thing above tho very idlest and lightest, gives him something to think of besides the mere mechanical drudgery of his every .dayoccu pation something ho can enjoy while ab sent, and look forward with pleasure to return to.

My wheat will- only fetch me nix hundred dollars in merchandise at tlds iirioo, continued he, and as my family is largo will not be sufficient to clothe them and pay my laboring hands for the next year, at tbu present high rates our merchants sell their goods. Can you advise mo continued he how I shall inako my ends meet ? I went to bed Mr. Bdltor, thinking of the s story and his thousand bushols of wheat until I fell asleep and commenced dreaming about it. In tho morning I told him my dream and thought I had frequently found lossons of wisdom in dreams and hoped he might profit by the one I was about to re late. I thought said I, that you had declin ed selling your wheat to tho merchants, but exchanged it with the millers at Oregon City tor Hour at pounds per tanners 1 had not heard your dream, ami is worth at least fifty thousand dollars this year to the larmcrs of ilia Willamette Valley, if you can only persuade them to believe in your dream;'' and with a dcairo that this hand mine littlo sum may be saved to tho farmers I havo been induced to furnish you with a copy of my dream, for publication in tho -Spectator. M. For the Oregon Spectator. Eslacntara, if, ft. 7 in education wo may truly see and enjoy happiness prospectively, Whether inr our selves, in our children, or our neighbor's children the interest should Iks alike with us. Kspecially in this country' whero the young man of talents and persevering industry, ntands an equal chance for tho highest gift oi tho people whethor ho bo rich or poor laiciit in our beloved land elevates man a hove his fellows, and persevering application alone can assist any one in this elevation. ii so should wo not all tako a deep interest in tho universal diffusion of knowledge here, among ourselves at this tho important pen 1 of our national infancy. Now is tho time, cro othor questions of a political nature shall call away tho feelings which may and ought at this timo to bo enlisted in this all imjnrtant teork. Hear with mo my friends, if I sliould continuo awhilo longer to urgo Momo more of the particular points of my subject. The character of most of our neighbor, hoods at this time, and the situation of tho country is such as to forbid us to work out fully and freely tho plans about to be laid open to view. This 1 know, but shall wo always lay dormant? O no, let iWact as far as lies in our power, net note, art with vig or and a perseverance not to be shaken and re long wo will see the fruits of our labors returning to us a thousand fold ! Let neigh borhoods meet and tho aged and most ttable men bo appointed as a committco, to sco that tho school-house shall bo placed in a healthy uud central situation. Let them ho looked up to for advice in all n flairs relating to tho school, and thus inako tho first great step to wards a good and permanent establishment of school afiHirrt. Lcfthis committor bo us Mated in the investigation of tho charactor ami qualifications of ti.oso who apply for tho situation of Teacher, by thoto in othor pro. I'eisions in tho nfiphhorhcod. If you havo a Physician, a Milliliter, or a Lawyers onn if your community call him in to assist in this work ; ho that' by combining age and ex. fwrif.net with teaming, you muv enlist the whdjo of your valuable men in tiio. work. After your school is orgunized ietlliia com. iiiittoo visit it frequently nnd hco that the la bors of tho Teacher nro such as they should he encourago him if he is in the right path, and be tho peace tnakers between parents, scholars and touchers.
