Tiw. n itr nri'.P . f hp Th public is respectfully 1 solicited, General Tnnuatt, of the 0. E. & N. Co., wafeiterviewed a short time ago at Union, by the editor of the La Grande Republican, from which we glean the following iteiH9 con cerning the railroad intereats of the Northwest: The Seattle & Walla Walla road will be built as soon as it is possible. After crossing the Cascades it will pass down the Yakima valley to the Columbia River at a point in the neighborhood of Umatilla. Three surveys have been made, and this one is thought to be the best. It is owned by the Oregon Improvement Co., and not by the 0. R. & N. Co., as many suppose; but will connect with the Litter, at or near Umatilla. It is expected that the O. R. & N. Co. will connect with the road that Jay Gould is now building from Og den, via jMidddle Fork or Canyon CLy, s-uv yj.i by CjI. Wolcolt last sir.iiniur, j at some point between Ba ker and Boise. This will make a through line from Ogden to Puget Sound and Portland, 'and the" short est roulo across the continent The General was satisfied that in less than two years this line will bo com plorud. While in the Grande Rondo vaiky tho Gciifmi purchased 20.000 acres of land for the Oregon Ini provementCompany." The Beno Gazetto says that Col. Moore, the contractor for theNeva da & Oregon railroad, did not leave New York on the 10th, as he first wrote he wjuUL A letter has been received from him fixing the date of his departure from New York as the 15th inst.

Bands of iriiisid are forbidden to play on most of the large bridges of the world. A con stant succession of sound waves, especially such as come from the playing of a band, will excite the wires to tibration. At nrdt? the vibrations are verf slight, but they will increase as the sound waves con tinue to come. The principal rea son why bands ate floi allowed to play when crossingcertain Abridges, the suspension bridge at Niagara, for instance, is that if followed by pro cessions of any kind they will keep step wttk the music, and this regular step would cause the wires to vi brate. At suspension bridges mili tary companies are not allowed to march across in regular step, but lrek ranks. The regulur trotting gait o: a large dog across a suspension bridge is more dangerous to the bridge than a heavily loaded wagon drawn by a team of large horses. Affairs ate still in a yery unsettled state in Ireland, on account of tho rent difticulties. The eutire atten tion of the British government seems, at xresenk, to be centered on the harvesting of Farmer Boycott's crops. It has been necessary fof him to call in the aid of the British army to protect him from punish ment at the hands of the tenants whom he had turned out of house and home. The number of the mil iary makes further interference im posiible, but he has announced hi intention of leaving Ireland, whicli indicates his fear of future retribu tion. Oh, unhappy Erin! Wo would to God that something' couhL be done to relieve the distress of your suffering people I New York, December 8. Ord is retired, being over 62 years of age and ordered to Washington. The retirement of McDowell is1 fully de cided upon. Howard may possibly be appointed Asajor General and as signed to the command of Wesf Point. Schofield, at Ms own re quest, will be granted one year's leave oj absence. Gen. Miles will probably be ordered to San Francis co to relieve McDowell. The Same Olu Story. An Oxford graduate was showing his sister ovej his rooms in college, when some one knocked at the door. Supposing: that it was one 'of his friends and not wishing to be chaffed, he hid her behind the curtains, and admitted an elderlyentleman, who apolo gized profusely for his intrusion, and excused himself by saying thafr it was many years since he had been at Oxford, and he could not leave without paying a visit to his dear old college, and the rooms he had occu--piad as a student. fAh!' cried the old gentleman,, looking around, 'the same old sofa!' yes, the same old carpet everything" the same.' Presently he stepped toward the ctrtains and remarked, fAh! and the same old curtains' Lookingaround he beheld the young lady, and turn--ing around, he said, 'Ah! you young dog! and the same old game.' 'But hastily replied the uner--graduate, 'that young lady is m s.ster.' To which tbe reply came, 'Y-e3, 1 know, and the same old story V 'ihe immigration- for 1881 i3 al ready preparing itself.
