Tin. Covii A correspondent of
the La (iniudo fkntlnel gives tlio fol
lowing description of the "Tho
Cove," In I'iiIoii county :
Tu our right aro steep and rugged
mountains, which rear their heads
and gently kls tlio morning vapor;
their sides are covered with forests
nf pine, llr uud tamarack, and also
decked with snow, which melting,
descends aud waters as fair a garden
as man could wish to cultivate, hi
front of im is that fair garden, Inter
laced with streams of water, which
first I'oiiiti leaping down tho stoop
mountain sides from their everlast
ing fountain-heads, and then moving
slowly onward tu tho valley, waters
that rich and fertile garden of East
ern Oregon called the Cove situated
iu thu eastern part of Grand Hondo
Valley.
Thu soil is rich and mellow and
must of It tinder cultivation; Hue
farms extend far up tiie mountain
sides. Tiinlver Is convenient and tho
farmers aro making thu best of this
time of the year whtle grain Is up
and growing, in getting rails to make
their fences secure and alu tu fence
more laud.
Tlio farmers, as a class, aro Indus
trlous and thrifty. They aro courte
ous tu all, and seem tu be progressing
lineiy, aim tiioy aru ceriaiuiy naiipy
and contented as they should be in a
country so well favored by nature.
Yin Mi men aru mistaken when
they think good looks the principal
recommendation tu women. A wo
man admires a handsome man for a
time, but it needs something more
than 11 good-looking face tu retain
tills feeling. A woman N, ns a gen
end rule, nioru strongly drawn by
tho lutelliH'tual qualities, of thu up
iroslto sex than hy anything else.
What is ulruve, slid is abo true of the
gentler sex.

It was .suggested to Mr. Lincoln in
the latter part or 1859, by Mr. Fell
and others, that lie might become an
available Republican candidate for
tho Presidency in 1800, but it was a
long wlille before Lincoln would be
lieve that he could come prominent
ly beforo tho convention. Inn-much
as Seward. Cameron. Isnnkg. and
others, who had been prominent
an accurate statement of his points,
as a eaiuiKiaie nugiit uo placed no
fore the people of that State. It was
not until after repeated solicitations
that Lincoln responded to tho re
quest, and when he did, in Decem
ber, 18(50, lie sent to Mr. Fell the
manuscript referred to, which is a
brief statement of Ills ancestry and
ills earlv life, and u characteristic
de-crlption of his por.-onal appear

Hon. .Io-epli .1. Lewis, of Pennsyl

his own natural expressions, such as
he would uso to a friend in prlvato
conversation. Eur Instance, ho hays
his parents " were both Iwrn in Vir
ginia of undistinguished families
second families, perhaps, I should
say."
Further on, ho says that his father
moved to what Is now Sponcer coun
ty, Indiana, In Lincoln's olghth year,
whoro ho grow up. "There were
suniu schools, so called; but noijuali
llcation was over required of a
teacher beyond readln', writiu', and I
clphorin' to tho Itulo of Three. If a 1
straggler, siipK)sed to iindor-laud
Latin, liapiioiied tu bojouru in tho
neighborhood, he was looked uion
as 11 wlwird."
Ho'goes 011 to say that lie was
rai-ed to farm work, which ha con
tinued until ho was twenty-two.
Ills last year iu Illinois ho spoilt iu

and tu his election tu tho Legislature

tho following sentence : "If any
