rsios COUXTY
Union coynty is bounded north
ly the Valla Yalla valley in
AVashington Territory, on the4Gth
parallel of north latitude east , by
Snake river, which separates it
from Idaho Territory ; south, by
Baker county ; and "west, by the
lilue mountains and Umatilla
county and contains within its
limits a large tract of agricultural
and grazing land, known as the
Grand lionde Valley. This valley
com prises' the most important agri
cultural portion of the county, the
following description of which is
taken from a prize essay written by
"YV. Lair Hill, Esq., for the Oregon
State Agricultural Society:
" The Grand Rondo, lying a few
leagues north of the Powder river
valley, is a bcautifuircular valley,
some twenty or thirty miles in di
ameter, watered by a stream bear
ing the same name. Suninded
by high hills or spurs of the Blue
mountain sats amphitheatrical form
relieving its smooth, grassy surface,
intersected by a bold stream,
fringed on either side by small
trees, renders it sufficiently charm
ing, to say nothing of the fertility
of its soil, which is unsurpassed."
This county is being fast settled
up, but still has large tracts of
government land unoccupied, and
veVJ, adapted to grazing and agri
cultural purposes. The AVallowe
valley, on a small tributary of the
Grand Rondo river,is not surpassed
for beauty or fertility, and for im
portance is inferior to the Grand
Konde vnljcy only in its size. The
northern portion ot the 1 owder
river valley is within the limits of
this county, and has already been
described. The Grand Hondo val
ley is surrounded by high eleva
tions or spurs of the Blue moun
tains, alternating between aluxuri
ant grow tip of bunch grass and
forests of gigantic fir, larch and
' pine. The timber from the hills
and mountains furnishes good op
portunities for obtaining lumber of
all kinds for fences and building
purposes, while the extensive table
and hill lands, covered with grass,
furnishes pasturage inalmost inex
haustible supplies. u
The sou ot this valley if an al
luvia, deposit of decomposed earth
and vegetable mould, and contains
less of silica, phosphate of limc,and
magnesia, and more of alumina, ox
ide of iron, and organic matter,than
that of Powder river valley. This
soil is very fcrtile,producing wheat,
"barley, oats, and ail the other va
rieties of small grain, in abundance,
also the different kinds of fruit,and
vegetables, of the most luxuriant
Sjrowth. It is stated, by good, re
liable farmers residing in this coun
ty, that from forty to sixty bushtfs
of wheat per acre, with an'ordinary
system of cultivation, is no uncom
mon yield. Oats and barley do
correspondingly well, yielding from
fifty t one hundred bushels of the
finest grain to the acre.
The -water in this county iCfcx
cellent, and in abundance" for all
kinds of milling, mechanical, and
domestic purposes being supplied
from the ioot-hills and mountains
by springs and small brooks, while
5the Grand Rondo river and its
tributaries, m tneir various mean
derings and cascades, furnish mill
sites and stock water in abundance
the entire length of the county.
There is also a number ot not or
warm springs in the central portion
of this valley, supposed to be vahv
able for their medicinal qualities,
but the water has never received a
scientific analysis, and its proper
ties are yet unknown.
The climato of this county is
similar in many respects to other
portions of eastern Oregon. Dry
winters, short and cold ; long
springs and falls, beautiful and
mill,with frequent showers of rain.
In tact, the bracin
mountain air,
tempering tlio rays of the summer's
sun Irom a cloudless sky, give.s a
healthful fnxury to the climate of
this valley unsurpassed irDan)
other portion of - the world. In
winter, for two or three weeks, old
memories are often awakened, and
the monotony of life enlivened by '
mirth and laughter, mingled with
the ring of skates, or the chime of
merry sleigh-bell?. Snow seldom
lavs on the ground more than two
mi O m
or three weeks during the winter
in this valley,and the farmer gen
erally commences plowing,sowing,
and gardening the fore part of
March. Stock of) all kinds is fre
quently left to run at large the en
tire winter, and does well without
grain or hay. But the most profit
able, as well as the most humane
way of treating stock, in this, as
well as all other portions of Ore
gon, is to furnish a good supply of
hay from the luxuriant growth of
grass in the valleys, and provide
sheds, to shelter them from the
stormshat occur during the win
ter in this, as well as in other parts
of the world.
Indian corn, tobacco, onions,
tomatoes, and peaches, can be
raised successfully in favorable lo
cations in this valley, if properly
cared for. Apples, pears, and plums
are being cultivated, and flourish
remarkably well The soil of this
valley shows a peculiar adaptation
to the growth of the different va-
rieties of tame crrass. and especially
to red top and timothy. But the
luxuriant growth of the wild or na
tive grasses in this valley, known
as blue joint, fowl meadow, limber
will, etc., supersede the necessity
of cultivating other varieties for
hay. The mineral resources of this
county arc also important, and are
surpassed onlyby the fertility of
its soil. The Eagle creek gold
mines show the auriferous charac
ter of the mountains, gulches, and
canons of this county, while the
croppings of coal, iron, lead, and
copper, met with in various locali
ties are proof that its mineral
wealth has scarcely commenced to
bo developed. O
The immigrant can obtain sup
plies of all kinds in this valley,wjth
which to begin life in a new coun
try. A good wagon road from the
Columbia river to the mining camps
in eastern Oregon and Idaho passes
through this valley; also, there is
a daily line of stages, carrying the
U. S. mail, from the Dalles to Salt
Lake City. The society in this
valley is not surpassed by any
other locality as reccntlyjsettled as
this, the inhabitants manifesting in
a marked degree a spirit of honest
industry, moral integrity, and rural
economy ; and the stranger, travel
ing in this vicinity, will find, after
a rati gum
g dft
s journe', in
this
valley, a hearty welcome at the
homo of the new settler, where, at
thcclosej)of the da, entire happi
ness seems to prevail, "and drowsy
tinklings lull the distant folds."
A good common school system
has been established in this county,
and the inluibitantshaveshown a
commendable spirit in taking mea
sures to secure their proportion ofj
the general school iund ot the State,
and by adding to it by private sub
scription and general taxation,been
able to furnish as good a system of
common schools as is enjoyed in
some of the older States. The va
rious religious denomination arc
well represented in this vicinity,
religious services being held on the
Sabbath in most of the towns and
thickly settled neighborhoods, and
the rites of barbarous ravages are
fast giving way to the worship of
the Most High God.
La Grande, the county seat, is a
flourishing town, situated about
eighty-live-miles from navigation
on the Columbia river, ana is on
the stage road leading from the
navigable waters of that river to
tire extensive mining districts of
eastern Oregon, Montana, Idaho,
and to the Salt Lake valley. This
town has eight stores, two hotels,
three blacksmiths, one wagon shop,
one flouring mill, two churches,one
academy, and apost-ofhee.
O LTnion, situated about fifteen
miles southeast of La Grande, on
the Opposite, side of the valley, is a
town of considerable importance,
has a post oflice,ilour'm2; milLhotebl
public school, blacksmith shop, and
four stores. Forest Cove is an
other new town in this valley, with
a flouring mill, public schoohblack-
smith shop, post oflice, and store.
bummerville has a post oflice, store,
hotel, flouring Qnill and public
school. Orodell has a post oflice,
store, flouring mill, and public
school. There is also a hotel, with
bathing and summer house, at the
Vann Springs, on the stage road
from La Grande to Union. o
This county has a population of
nearly 3,000, with an assessable
property of 400,000, and about
9,000 acres of land under improvc-
u.tu,,nm covers an area ot about
--bso,ooo acres of land. There is
also a number of good saw mills
situated at convenient points in
this county, and the new settler can
obtain all kinU of lumbcivfor build
mg purposes, at reasonable rates.

Shepherd Dogs.
e
Correspondence of American Stock Journal.
About one year ago! purchas
ed a remarkably fine shepherd
dog of your firm. Tanking it
would be of some benefit to your
readers to be made acquainted
with the peculiar traits of these
remarkable dogs, I send you a
few short notes, on the perform
ances of mine. He will bring
the cows, oxen, or horses, from
the most distant fields, by simply
telling him what you want.
Soon after we got him we sent
him to watch the sheep that were
in a field, one-half of which was
in oats. We visited him several
times during the day, and found
the faithful dog, who was walk
ing with sentinel like punctuali
ty, up and down the boundary
line of the two crops, close to
which some few of his trust were
browsing. Upon the slightest
attempt of any sheep to infringe1
on the oats,he immediately drove
them back ; but the extent of his
beat being very long, he was oft
en sorely put to it, and had to
hurry backwards and forwards
in rather a laughable manner.
Collecting his energies he finish
ed by driving the whole nock to
the extremity of the pasture.
Then, satisfied with the altered
position of affairs, he returned to
the boundary line, and lay down
with the assurance that theyniust
now feed up to him.
Is ot long since he accompanied
a friend to Chicago, where he
purchased a lot of sheep,upwards
of 250. At night, on.bringhrg
them home, they were turned in
to a field. The fences not being
very good, they broke in with
several other droves, and conse
quently soon all became mixed
together. The next morning.
without making a single mistake
the dog picked out the whole of
his master's sheep from amongst
the others, almost unaided, and
although he had been so short a
time acquainted with them, after
which he drove them to their des
tination single-handed.
I was greatiy gratified at such
an admirable display of canine
sagacity. It has seldom, or ever
been equalled, never surpassed,
for brilliant intelligence and ca
nine observation.
My wife says he is of incalcu
lable value in caring for the
youngest children when they are
running about the farm, as she
always considers them sate under
the care of Jack. He will carry
luncheons to the men in the most
distant part of the farm, and not
offer to touch a mouthful.
There are certain peculiarities
of character belonging to the
shepherd dog well worthy of note
He is a remarkably small eater,
and is the least greedy of the tu
tire race; in fact, it is quite as
tonishing how many hours licwill
remain true to his post without
iiululcrimr ins appetite; he appa
rently suffers but little from hun
ger or thirst. He is of a pensive
melancholy disposition, ftnd rare
ly condescends to join a romp,or
enjoy the playful dalliance which
belongs to other animals. At
the same time, his affections are
true and unalterable to his master
and his faithfulness, under the
most trying circumstances, is
staunch even to death; and if we
should seek in the canine family
for talents and qualities especial
ly human, our convictions un
hesitatingly point toward the
Shepherd I)og.
The young man who had been
traveling about latch', jumping
on the tram to kiss his sisteiynul
then apologising when he found
his mistake, "has come to grief,"
and will reform his practices,
lie tried the thing on, at New
Haven the other day, when the
damsel raised her veil and said:
'"Gollv, massali ; what dat you
'bout dar 2"
A q nam t writer says: "i nave
seen women so delicate that they
were afraid to ride for fear of the
horse running away; afraid to
walk for fear the dew might fall;
afraid to sail for fear the boat
mbdft: unset: but I never saw
one afraid to be married, whicl
is more riskful than all the ofh
ers put together."
On the 17th of last month, two
hundred and fifty immigrants
from Austria arrived in Ivich
mond, Ara., to settle on land pur
chased for them in Henrico conn
tv. Thcv all nave something to
begin with.
GThe X ashville negresses have
formed a co-operative society to
do family sewing. They do the
work and meet once a "week to
divide the proceeds pro rata.
A "Western town is without a
newspaper, because " the ladies'1
sewing society answers just as
W'
ell."
