I PJ.l rilut hnnghi een waiting a good while, as there were so many ahead of me, but that if the oc­ casion now seemed ripe I wished she would show me her suspenders. Those were my exact words, .and yet the papers the next day not. only gave a garbled and erroneous account of it. but misspelled my name twice. Thus it came to pass that the only time I ever tri.sl to buy anything in New Y’ork. when I had the money to do it with, I met with a repulse that I can not fully understand. In try­ ing to explain it to the authorities afterwards I spoke of my earnest de­ sire to devote my future life to the use of suspenders and other refining in­ fluences, but they said that surely I knew better than to try to get sus- ponders at the corset counter on the first floor, when everybody knew that the stts|>ender department was up sev- en floors, back of the restaurant and on the left of the woodenware depart­ ment. in charge of an elderly man. with thick-set red Donegal« and a heavy endxissed nose. Rather than admit that 1 didn’t know New York intimately from Castle Garden to 3 o'clock a. th .. 1 settled the matter and got a pair of good suspenders of a man who does a quiet business on the sidewalk at the corner of Fulton street and Broadway, I believe, un­ less he baa moved his store up to Park Row. He did not show the air of re- lnctance and extreme anguish over being separated from bis sits|»enders which we notice in the large dealer. I paid him 40 cents for the pair I got of him, and was told afterwards that I could have purchased the same goods on Twenty-third street for 39 cents. The reason 39 cents, or 29 cents, or Iff cents, or 9 cents is the price, as I un­ derstand it, is that it gives an oppor­ tunity to the saleslady to ship your goods to Fort Hamilton, when» they are done up ami retitrn.nl, while your 40 ceuts goes through a clearing house, a house of detention, quarantine and receiving vault. You then get a cent back, miss your boat home and have to stop at the hotel all night at a cost of 84.85. THE EMERALD LAND. How a California Journalist Desrants on the Charms of Oregon. It is greatly to the interest of Cali­ fornia to have a large population in Oregon and Nevada. Oregon must supply us soon with important and necessary commercial productions which we will cease to create for our­ selves. The two states will be tribu­ tary to each other, generating a mu­ tual prosperity. Oregon has a cli­ mate soft and salubrious by oontrast with that of the East, and soil that is unrivaled for standard crops. There is plenty of arable land, majestic tim­ ber. mineral resources not half devel­ oped, and above all the opportunity to buy at moderate figures. These al­ lurements are not lost upon the rest of the country, and backed by a hearty welcome to the new oomer. they will sjieedilv second what nature has" done for the founding of a great American commonwealth. Joaquin Miller's characterization of Oregon as “the Emerald Land” has been aejzud HpoQ by ti» Fn-----r press, for it implies a land where grass grows and water runs, and is as­ sociated with verdure and foliage, with sun and shade. All tastes are not the same, and it is a happy promise of the symmetrical development of these coast States that their good qualities so comple­ ment each other as to be attractive to a great diversity of tastes. In climate they run from dry to humid, and in productions they cover the great area between the two extremes. The men who traversed the long Oregon trail forty years ago were the pioneers of a great civilization. They were to the Argonauts who made early Califoruia what the adventurous settlers in the Wyoming Valley and along the blue Juniata were to the commercial Knickerbockers who. set­ tled New Y’ork. We speak of the mid­ dle states now as a group allied in in­ terest and progress working out the same destiny ami greatly interdepend­ ent. The Pacific states are to be another family group like that, with a population which will balanoe the census of the two sides of the conti­ nent. Therefore, we say to the immi­ grant: "If you don’t see what you want in California, ask for it in Ore­ gon: and if von don't see what you want in Oregon, ask for it in Califor­ uia or Nevada.” - Alta-Califomia. Horticultural Notes. Following are brief excerpta from the, address of Dr. Cardwell to the North Pacific Fruit Growt*rs’ Associa­ tion, the annual meeting of which war held in Portland recently. The sub­ ject of the address was the meeting of the National Fruit Growers’ Associa­ tion in San Jose, and the experience of 1 be Oregon delegation attending it: Gentlemen of the North Pacifi Fruit Growers' Association:—Yoni committee, appointed to make a col­ lection of our fruits, met with a ready response from business men and fruit - growers, and were, in a few houn able to place in the hands of vour de) - egation to the American tiorticnli ural Society a very creditable display of the dned and canned product . and some fair apples, which, however, were not exhibited, excepting a few selected specimens, by reason of dan age in transit; hence were ordere i sold and placed to expense account. These g- nounced a superior quality. Hem» c. to carry out the wise adage, •*Gn>» fruit you can grow better than your neigliliors," it was evident to your committee that we should grow farg»* winter pears and apples, Italian pnunw and the large pitting plums. We uot»*d the fad that there were no flue nppl»*s <»r pears in the California mar­ kets. Iu social gatherings we not<«l that applew were offered and eaten .s luxuries, and oranges neglecteiL Ver­ ily, that forbidden fruit is mu>-h sought by the unregenerate sons anil daughters of men. Hence, we premise it will always pay to raise good coin- mercial apples. We bail heard of the magnificent extent of the fruit industry of Califor­ nia, and yet always felt there might I- something of the mythical alxiut it; and had not fully realized the facts. A three or four thousand acre vineyard, all the property of one man, nicely trimmed, and as clean as a garden; and countless others of hundreds of acres, extending jierbaps twenty miles, and every way lieyond the hne of vision, and this not in one place but in man» places. And miles aDd miles of apri­ cots in oue locality, in another peacher. in another French prunes, and so on along the lino of the railway through the whole catalogue of deciduous and citrus fruits. Townships in orchard in ¡icrfect culture, ranging from 50 to 650 acres each. These thing« must be seen. To hear of them gives no cor­ rect idea. Among the surprises was a cherry tree thirty-four inches in diam­ eter, which yielded one year 2200 pounds of Royal Anns, sold at six cents per pound on the tree. A grape vine covering one fourth of an acre, measuring four and one-half feet in What It Contain«. circumference an»i yielding one year i Salem Statesman.] four und e- loads.
