Titer is coiiaideraule being said of late on tins propriety of so unending our Con-sutu-ion BoaaUipenuii, lie State to give pts cuuiaryaid in support of internal improve anenta arguments have been adduced pro and con just a though it was a question worthy f oonaideration. In some States it p-jasibly would be in order to consider thia question in a tenons way, but to spend time discussing anch ques tions in the great State of Oregon is ri diculous in the extreme. In some coun tries and with aoiue people eomtitutiimal mtxictiuns might have some binding force, but with th Suite authorities in thia State they are but as a rope of sand. The frame of the State constitution were green enough to suppose that a pro hibitory clause would be held good by the State authorities until changed ; but they little supposed our Sta.e would ever he honored with a Governor whotie spinal eolunm would retain its perpendicularity in the discharge of duty even though "the heavens should falL" Notwithstanding the fact that the old fogies that framed aur eomutu ion, limited by that inatrn uiont the S.a e indebtedness to fifty thousand dollars, we have had an adminis tration for the last sis years that "knows a thing or two," and hare had the grit nd fosttxi: to conaact an indebt edness cf nearly one million dollars. Con stitutional scruples are nothing to snch giants. The "gods" in iheir anger might tons monni aina around and pile "Pelion on Osaa," but it was reserved for the po litical giants of this State administration, to over-ride constitutional law, and, by Herculean efforts, involve our State beyond the fixed limit, in some eight hundred thousand dollars. And now, since the thing has been done and the way opened, w heroin is the necessity for a ehange in tiie constitution? The only good that could possibly arise from calling a convention, to change -.he Comisitiritm, would be to give an lpjiortuni y to increase the present debt. 'iim, we think hardly necessary, in view of the wonderful capacity in that line already developed, by the present proficient officials. It ia true tliat some iieraons still hold to the absolute idea, that a State cannot incur indebtednes be ond constitutional limitauous, but it is time to dispell all such un enable notions; lor the old adage says, "What man has .done man may do;,' and we all know that our State is indebted nearly a million dollars, while our Constitution fixes the limit at fifty thousand. Ill view of all these facts there can be no necessity for a change in the Constitu tion, for the purpose of pe-- .itting ir reaaed indebtedness, since we already ive every needed facility in that direc tion. To call a convention for the pur pose of placing restrictions in the way of iurther increase would be entirely futile, while we have such peculiar ability in our State e flick!. Ordinarily it might lie of --on; avail, but jhese are extraorduiary '.ih'cifck, with them restrictions are of no fivaiL It is desirable to increase he -tate iiidebtedness the way has already Jieen opened.

A it seems to be fashionable to go in Lvj- on suits now-a-daytt, the attention of thosti who would profit by precedent is i-illed to the following : "Perhaps one of -he heaviest suits for the recovery of prop-:-rty is about to be instituted in the courts o!

MEMHH tlTttTUim. Every indication now points to improved times in Oregon. Crop prospects were never better and the promise of good prices is very nattering. From Hon. G. "W. Colby, the champion Granger of North ern California, we learn that the tide of emigration, from the Southern part is ainiply immense, all headed towards Ore gon. But it is not alone from California that immigrants are coming; they are coming by the hundreds from the Eastern States. Oregon is uo longer known as a county in California, but as a State possessing vast natural resources aud offering better inducements to settlers than any other,of the Sta es or Territories, of the United States. Syiiinii!img with California in her unfavorable prospect for crops for the coming hazest, yet her misfortune has had the effect to turn the tide of emigration toivards Oregon where the crops nevor fc;l. Heretofore California has been ennbl . to hold out inducements to settle in t! ; 'i S:aie; but now things have changed, .ot only the Eastern emi gration, but also great numbers of Cali forniana are leaving their sun-parched homes for the land of "occasional mists. " Oregon has the Latural resources for a rich and populous State, and all that is now required is development ; to accom plish this it will take capital and muscle. One of the first things that should com mand attention, in such a way as to in sure success, is railroad communication with the rest of the world. Thousands of emigrants are kept from coming to our State by reason of the hardships and ex pense of getting here. It is not for this purpose alone that railroads are needed but for the general impulse they will give business generally as well Our Sta e can never become permanently pros perous while sparcely settled. Our commerce at present is to small to command any considerable attention ; hence we are food for monopolies. With increased population comes increased bus iness and this invites conipetition,all com bined produces a market at remunerative prices. Now is Oregon's opportiuiity to move in such enterprises as will tend to develops her resources. The tide of im migration is pouring in upon us the sea son has been favorable, and every indica tion paiuts to better times. Then, while in the flood tide of prosperity, let enter prise and skill direct all things in the proper channels of continued growth and prosperity. Railroads cannot be built in a day, it takes time and means ; the means are not easilv obtained ; combined efforts alone can secure the necessary aid; therefore, m order to accomplisu any thing in that direction, under our present condition, it is necessary to concentrate. Select some one of the many needed routes and concentrate all efforts to ac complish the end then, wkh increased towers, we may be able to take another, and so on till all that are needed have be come accomplished facta. It is quite amusing to look "ver our Democratic exchanges and note how in one paragraph they will laud President Hayes action and in the next denounce him as a fraud. They seem to be entire ly unable to make war upon his actions, but at the same time continually say mean tilings about the President tand Cabinet, charging them with corrupt motives, bar gains and sales. They put on the sem blance 4 if feeling badly over what they claim as inevitable the disruption of the Republican Party and give a sickly laugh at the suggestion of a possible dis union of the Democratic Party. The whole tenor of their utterance in dicate a general breaking down of the Democratic Party. At present the party has no common bond4jf union; no center figure around which to rally; hence the sickly laugh and forced effort to keep up a bold front. The New York Sun places all its ho in boldly asserting that Hayes ia not the lawful President of the lnitsd States and that he should not be so re rea guized. The Sun is determin ed to never be satisfied with anything that is done till Charles A. Dana gets the office of Collec tor of Customs for the port of New York. This was his ambition, and when Presi dent Grant failed to see it in that light this, his hitherto friend, became hia blackmailing enemy, and will be an "Ishmaelitb" the balance of his days. The average Democrat vainly endeavors to extract comfort from the imaginary disruption about to take place in the Radical eamp. They fail to comprehend the fact that the succew of the Republican party is as sured, either in a division of the South or by a united North. If the South keeps faith, and does the honest fair thing in the management of their Jocal affairs, will have a strong Republican party in the S4uth, but if not, if bull drjoing. murders and intimidations runs riot there, we will have a united North, as determiiMfd and invincible as in 1801.

Aptt- ( lU)SIMi iilVEST The people of Oregm are just now feel ing quite hopefal.in view of the prospect ive harvest coming on, and that not with out good reasons. At the same time many are of the opinion that the crops in our sister State on the South will be an en tire failure. In order that our readers may have a correct understanding of Cal ifornia's hopes we give the following re view of the harvest prospects in that State as presented by the Sacramento Record-Union : "There is but little to be said of the southern portion of the State, or of the great San Joaquin valley south of San Joaquin county, although the harvest there is better than was anticipated, but of all that portion of the State lying north of the thirty -seventh degree of north lati tude, and including three-fifths of the grain growing lands of the State, a happy picture may bedrawtt,and an encouraging account given. The first thing to lie kept in mind ia that the cash value of a crop is dependent on price as well as production. The financial return is the ultimate object sought, and aa regards this consideration the results of tliis year's crop will be very gratifying. The cost of planting, harvest ing, threshing, sacking and hauling to the point of shipment, the yield of an acre of wheat i by careful computation found to be 89 05. The average yield per acre in this State is twelve centals. This at SI 50 per cental gives f 18 per acre .or a net profit of S 33. Now when the price is 82 50 percental as is the case now the fig ures show a startling change. Leaving the cost as before at $9 65: the product at twelve per cental, the gross result kSJper atire,or a profit of 820 35,or more than the net profit of two crops. A half crop this year at ruling prices is frilly equal to a crop on last year's market. But in the section alluded to there is much more than half a crop being harvested. In fact the aggre gate will not fall short of a full crop on the basis of the harvest of 1876. In Sonoma, Napa, Lake, Marin, Solana, Yolo, Sutter, Saeramento,Butte, Tehama, Shasta, Yuba, Amador, and El Dorado counties, the ad ditional acreage wUl compensate the partial failures of some soils, while in some of the counties named, as Napa, Colusa, Butte, and Sutter, the harvest will yield an excess over last year. In all the northern section, of the State, then, the aggregate cash return of the wheat ex port will exceed that of last year. tf some of these localities we present some gratify ing details. If the figures should ticcaaion s urprise in the minds of our Eastern friends, let it be remembered that they are pre sented as exceptional.aud that an unusual market has had much to do in producing them. They are given, however, tip4jn knowledge of the facts, and are not pre sented to excite wonder. Chieo township, Butte county ,the verygardenofCalifornia, will export $50,000 tonsof wheat,whichat two and a half cents, the present market rate, will yield a revenue of 82,500,000. Colusa county will export 00,1)1 Ml tons which at the rate aa before, gives S3.000.000. In this county we cite two instance of successful grain farming on two distinct classes of soil. One of the tenants of Dr. Glenn, farming a portion of his large ranch, has 15,000 acres under the sickle. It will yield fifteen cental to the acre, which at current rates gives a gross re turn of $500,000. The gentleman inquea tion claims that this will be the largest cash showing ever made by any one far mer in the State. The land is "plain land" in Colusa county. In the same county there is a tnle farm having this year WO acres in wheat not yet rijie, but showing an average of four full grain in each mesh, and carefully estimated to pro duce thirty-six centals to the acre, having a gross market value of HtO per acre, a net of about $80 4r tu times the ordi nary average profit of grain growing. To gether, Butte and Colusa will inijHirt (',UO0,O00 in gold on the sale of their crops. Sutter county is not far behind any other this seasou. There is an in stauce in that county 4if a fanner wht pureha-ed la.it year a farm jf 400 acres at 40 r acre. The grain grown on the place this year will fully reimburse the en tire purchase price. These are but a few of the many instances that have come to our knowledge, and we submit that they may lie taken as a most gratifying indica tion of prosperity in every interest in the northern portion of the State. Of course it is all right, for the Mercury endomss it The 835,901 7 "take" in two years by the State Department, which, at the same rate for eight years of Dem ocratic power in this State, will amount to the snug little sum of $143,607 11, of the people's luouey. pRrvii.gHD personThe Penitentiary clerk, who draws his salary in advance of the time fixed by law.

AtLK xrolLI.U A !- lu the year 183S and '39, the Mormons fled from Western Missouri, and many of them came to Springfield, 111., and to the set tlements around. Three of the famdies of these Mormon's settled for a season on my premises, near Springfield. Two of the men were Mornum Elders, inspired and freshly ordained by the Prophet, Joe Smith. These men airto d to make all the converts they could t. the new faith. The Mormon lead ers gent-mlly laid claim to the jtower of working miracles like those of the ApostUw of Christ. One their chief Elders, from Springfield, preactiad one Sunday in our district school hou.it, and thun and there openly avowed the power in their priest IiihkIh of healing the skk, casting out devils, speaking with unknown tmgut8, raising the dead, etc. He stated that when person amongst the tleiitilos Wiainr skk, away went runnera for a doctor who would ad minister medicine, and the rooms of the sick would hang around with bottles aud vials not so with the Latter Itety Saints. When any of them became sick, they sent for their Elilors who anointed with oil the sick onw, and prayed over them, laying hands upon them and thus raining them to health. After nKKrting, I stated to those Elders that many of their followers in our settlement were from Camula, that from the excessive June rains lately fallen there, aud the prevalence of very hot weather, there would be amongst them soon, severe cases of bilious fevers, and that if their El ders, by oiling and praying over those cases, and laying hands upon them, lifting no medi cines, could raise them up suddenly to health, I would sell my lands and personal property, and place me and mine nnder the direction and safe keeptug of the Church of the Latter Day Saints and go with them to Nauvoo. To this they asseuted, lulling Mormon and Gentile witnesses to the agree ment. About three weeks from that time a young man, a son of one of the Elders on my farm, took a violent attack of bilious fe ver. I went to him and found tiiat his case was genuine, no possoming there. I there fore accepted hi cue ax a test. Away went a rnuner for three Elders from Hjiring field, who came out, and with the two on hand, prepared to anoint the sick man with oil, pray over him, lay hands on him, and raise him to instant health and strength. My wife and onr sister-in-law went to see the miracle, and a little dog went along. While preparations were being made for re storing the lick man, our little tlog found the holy oil and guljwd it all down. On discovering this, one of the Ehlera broke forth, saying, "This damned infernal dog has eateu all our holy oil." Then there was a scene, but the pup escaped; some coon oil was obtained and the jierfurriiaiice went on. When told to arise, the poor sick fel low did not rise worth a cent; lit was deliri ous, and his body scorched with fever. Soon s half dozen more of them took sick, and no aid nor laying on hantl could cunro them. Gen tile doctors were called in, and their rooms too were hung round with bottles and vials. Ia November when they all went t4i Nauvoo five of them were shaking with ague. The Elders placed all the hlama upon that day, and our lack of faith. IA til NvlS03f, imm 1st, 18T7.

Mr. Henry Moore, of Port Townsend, has furnished the (frrtjouian with the fol lowing version of the killing of Captain Howard, at that place: "On the afternoon of the day of the homicide Captain Walker and another man, whose name Mr. Moore could not remornher, In ft the wharf and passed Sutton's saloon. It stands a few paces from the path leading from the wharf. Sutton happened to lie standing in the door of the saloon when the nieu passed. Just as they came opposite the dor, How ard's companion entered the saloon and said to him, "Captain, conic in and take a drink." Howard replied in an angry tone, "I'll bJ if I'll drink in any s u of s b h of a bawdy house." Sutton SHtk up quickly and said, "What is that you said?" To which Howard replied, "I'll not drink with sucb a u of a b h as you." Sutton said, "I will in it take that from any man; this matter has gone jinrt far enough, aud we hail as well settle things right here as anywhere else." As Sutton said this hi left the door ami went behind the bar in a threatening mauuer. Howard entered tlte saloon at the same instant, drawing bis pistol meantime from under hia coat. Sut ton also drew his pistol a few seconds later. Somehow Howard did not cock his pistol, although he hail it drawn on his antagonist. Sutton tired, the hall taking effect in the side. Still Howard failed to discharge his weapon, for some reason. The second shot from Sutton's pistol tisik effect in Howard's right arm, causing him to drop the piiitol. j He sank down slowly to the floor, and Sut ton, advancing to his aide, said, "I expect I have kilted him." The firing attracted a numlier of persoin, who came rushing into; the salisin just a Howard full. Some said that he was killed, aud some exprewtexl the opinion that he was only wounded. .Sutton wao undecided as to what course to pursue whether to leave or stay. He was advised pro and con by his friends. Home thought he had better remain and stand trial, and others that it would be prudent for him to leave, but he said finally, "well boys, I am going to leave hure." He thou took a double-barreled stint-gun and a Henry rifle and loft the saloon, saying that any :r on who attempted to prevent him from going he would kill. Sutton then weut to the wharf, got into his boat and sailed away. There was bad blood btrtwoen Howard aud Sutton, growing out of some difficulty which these men hail some months ago. Howard's wife is a half-breed, and he had actmsed fcutton of being tx intimate with her. This led to a very bad tttutc of feeling between the two men. Once before thiry had an altercation and Howard run Sutton into his saloon. Sutton watt known to lie a desperate fellow when crow tied, and would not hesitate to take life. Howard, it is said, had the reputation of being a bully, uud bud lieateu several mon in a very bretal manner on slight provocation. I'noiMiBt.-( and EsiTP.iu-KiMB.
