Repentance.
A man -who as an overseer before tlie
-war had driven the darkeys with a whoop
came to the city yesterday. After taking
two or three drinks, and feeling that pe
culiar muscular growth so well known
to men who stand around in "spiritual
seance," the overseer went out on the
street with the swagger of a man noted
for voting whole neighborhoods. An
old blind man came walking along. The
overseer looked haughtily to one side
and stopped. The old man ran against
him.
"You old villain," exclaimed the over
seer, hooking a hand in the old man's
collar, "haven't you got moro sense than
to run over a white man?"
"Marster, for de Lord, I hopes you
'skuse me,"
"Ah, yes, you old rattlesnake; vou
thought that I would be afraid to tackle
you, ehV"
"Marster, 'fore the lord, you mus'
'skuse me fur de ole man hain't seed a
wink since long afore freedom."
"Are you blind, old man?"
"Yes, sah.; blinder den ole Jacob at de
time ob his death."
"Give me your hand, ole man. Here,
take this tobacco."
"Much obleeged, thankee, sah."
"Here, take this pipe. Here's a red
handkerchief. Any man that would
choke a blind man ought to be stripped.
Here's fifty cents and some more tobacco.
Here's a lot of flax thread. Take it all,
old man. Here's moro tobacco. Is
there Anybody in town that '.you want
whipped?"
"No, sah; not a one."
"If there is, I'll beat him till he feels
iiKe a pig wicn rne mumps; you ve seen
pigs with the thumps, haven't vou?"
"Yes, sah."
"Well, I'll whale him till he has the
thumps. Do you know of anybody that
can whup me?"
"Whv, marster?"
"Because, any man that would choke a
blind darkey ought to be whipped.
Hold on, don't go there's, .some more
tobacco. Put this pint bottle in your
pocket. . I thought at first that I'd make
my will in your favor, but to save law
yer's fees, I'll give up everything now.
Kow, old man, just step buck a few
yards and butt me into the middle of the
street."
"Marster, I doan wanterhurt ye. I'se
got a powerful hard head."
"Do JisiUiis I say, old man. Step
back atftf let drive . ' '
yaQ old man stepped back, bowed his
"neck, and with a bound struck the over
seer so hard that he staggered out into
the street and fell. "That's all right,
sir," he said to himself, getting up and
walking away. "He served you right.
The next time you collar a blind nigger
I'll use my influence to have you killed."
Treatment op Bkekding Swine.
"Were I" raising my pigs for pork instead
of for breeders, I would feed them some
what differently from what I now do,
and I am satisfied they would weigh as
much at six months as they now do at
nine months. But my stock are for
breeders, and I am quite sure that a
course of "pushing," , with the most
adaptable and richest food,
would injure- them for that purpose.
To grow pigs successfully and profitably,
requires that they should have a good
appetite, good digestion and strong
assimilating powers, which cannot be
found in any breed without vigorous
health. If a pig is kept for a consider
able time in a cold, wet, dirty pen, on
bad food and short allowance, until the
character and quality of the secretions
are changed, and the general growth of
the pig is checked, that pig will not
make a good breeder. By subsequent
good care and feed, this pig may grow to
be a fine-looking hog, and as a breeder,
may not show the check :t has received,
but the abuse will be pretty sure to crop
out m its offspring, causing late maturity,
deficiency iu size or fattening qualities.
I am opposed to allowing piers to breed
under eight months, and I much prefer
that they, should be 10 or 12 months old.
To in-and-inbroeding ami too early
breeding may be attributed many of the
ailments, barrenness and want of thrift
to be found in numbers of our swine
herds.
The phenomenon of the perforation of
rocks by sjuhI carried on the wind has
been observed in the valley of the Khone
in France. Avvery violent wind often
prevails iu tftik neighborhood of Uzes,
and drives larjte quantities of sand
against a band of quartzose pebbles con
tained in a tertiary soil. The pebbles
contain cavities which might be believed
to have been made by human hands, but
which are really produced by the often
renewed friction of the sandy particles
against their surface.

of JolmfH. Garrison fc Co.
Enterprising business men ore not slow to take ad
vantage of the rapid increase in wealth and popula

demand bv careful and adequate supply. The truth
of this assertion will not bo doubted after an inspec
tion of the establishment of
JOHX B. GAIUUSOX A CO.,
No. 107 Third streot, between Morrison and Yamhill
streets, Portland, Oregon. This enterprising firm,
with a view to thoroughness and permanence, has
leased the building 25x80 feet at the above location
for a term of years, and has spared neither expense
nor labor in fitting it up for the purpose of their ex
tensive business. At the left of the entrance is the
ladies' emporium,
Under the direct care of Mrs. M. A. Winnie. Here
wefindan elegant variety of guipure, tortion, Spanish
Chantilly, Russian, Valenciennes, English, thread,
Dutchess and point laces, and other varieties,
With their delicate tracery and elaborate de
sign; imitation laces in large variety; a
line of fine embroideries, one of the specialties
of the establishment, edgings and insertions
to match, in various widths; embroidery silks, white
and in all the new colors and tints; trimming satins
in the latest shades; ruchings of various grades;
coral, jet, steel and ivory ornaments, and an endless
variety of articles found only in a first class house.
Among the specialties we note what has never been
brought to thi&city before a dainty article of linen
and silk mulls, handkerchiefs of thefluest linen, plain
and euibroidcred.aud ladies' fiaunel uuderwear.white
and in colors, embroidered in silk. The show case
in the center contains an elegant variety of the most
rare laces artistically arranged over satin of various
colors. A few feet from this is displayed an elegant
white suit of Lonsdale cambric and tortion lace,
made in the house.
On the right of the entrance is a full display of the
210 VAL ST. JOHX, THE XKW WILSOX
And other sewing machines. This portion of the
establishment is under the charge of John 13. Garri
son, and belonging to it is a large array ot thread,
needles, thimbles, machine oil and sewing machine
fixtures, and needles for all machines in use in this
section of the country. Mr. Garrison is prepared to
repair sewing machines of all kinds, on the most
reasonable terms, having employed Mr. Desmond,

warrant all work. Passing on to the

lighted for the business of the seamstress. This
room is under the management of MLss Jennie
Hrowu, lately of Edinburgh. A patent plaiting ina
chine, with a capacity of 1000 yards per day, is one
of the appliances of this room. This firm proposes
to demonstrate the fact that ladies underwear,
plain or elaborately trimmed, cau be made at home
at prices as reasonable as those paid for thesame ar
ticles imported so largely from the east, and at the
snme time furnish steady employment and reason
able wages to a large clasi of working women and
girls. The principles upon which this establish
ment is founded are carefully considered and based
upon the necessity for .such "' institution, and the
elaborate care displayed in fitting it up, shows that
it has come to stay. The members of the firm give
courteous attention to the wants of their patrons,
and will promptly and carefully till orders from the
country. An inspection of the goods ollered is cor
