CITY VISI COUNTRY. TlIimsPAY, April IB. A Pleasant Evening. Last evening a largo party of friends of .Mr. and Mrs. J.L. Parrlsh filled their beau tiful house with pleasure and gaiety and en Joyed a delightful lime together. Intimate friends of the famlly,planned the affair and made provision for all the wants' that the hour could develope, giving their frlend's'ln formation to wards' evening thai they might as well light up and be ready to receive .company. The planning wan done.by Mrs. .John Holman and Miss Zylpha (Raymond, who left&ouwislop ygr.rwreWiahCPart of ithose who .responded to their callt Mr. Par ish has just introduced the UnionOas.Ma. cHnetih'oue7no:Jioth's'torierf''4d every room soonblared with illumination .and 8eutra 'bright' welcome to tho coming iTUBftta " "' The company assembled at Judge Chad; wick's house, and soon after eight o'clock -JOok"Uj)jthefUh;'oT march,' $r th Parrhh residence, which is located on the north bank of main MllL.Creek, tn the midst of a prove, pf .our most .beautiful, and. graceful Oregon white oaks, u The residence Is bne of uo ujuqb cuuveuioub buu iHBimui iu uur city, though situated Just beyond the limlte, and the 'grounds are 'tastefully laid out.

' There was one very amusing' incident to vary the xi st of the occasion, lor without a morqeni'i) warning all tho gas llgbta Hashed And were gone, leaving the laughing quests In utterdarkness. The niachinehad suddenly rundown, as tho family wera not use to Its up oration's and bo vera not on1 theirguard. One of our city matrons thought sbe'know whoro her llogo lord was, nearby In the darkness, nnd in trying to reach him laid familiar hands on the property of another lady, nnd the fact bolng pretty well proved made limes very lively whoi. tho gas was onco more iu running ordei. The company separated with hearty congratulations to the host and hid lady, on-having celebrated the fifth anulvor .auiy of their marriage., Eesach, or the Jewish Passover. Next Tuesday, (commencing on Monday .evening; April 20th, 1S73, corresponding with tbo&obrew month, Nissa'i,-5bo5, Anno Mundi is tho anniversary of the Jewish Passover, calebratod by tho Israelites in com memoration of tho provldoutlal cscapo of tho Hebrews iu Egypt, whnn God, smiting the .first-born of the Egyptians', pasbod.over tho houses of tho Israelite?, which wore marked with tho blood of the paschal lamb, uhonco, most likely, originates the order of the Bad Mark or Red Cross. It is a festival of ofcbt days' duration, the ,tirst and lost two being denominated as full and the Intervening four as half holidays. It is remarkahlo for its peculiar ceremonies kept up at the banquet tables during tho first two nigbts.the recitation of the original pootn of tho emigration from Ezypt, as handed down from time immemorial, the eating of tlie unleavened bread and or the paschal latnb, the regular drinking of toasts and the practice of kind and charitable ants towards .the poor nnd unfortunate.)- The law Institut ing and perpetuating the Passover we find Jn the Sacred writings; vide Exodus, ch. 12, verses 1 51. , Will Probably Get Bail.

We may there fore look for a lively opposition on tho ocean route to California' and such a reduction of fares and freights may be hoped for as will favor Immigration to our State. A .large number of people in the Eastern State are looking to our Stats for their future-homes and It is very Important to have rates of pas sage placed nt tho lowest posslblo figure.

Dfrvi tC Schuyler Gkktlkmkm : About a year ago I got a five gallon can of your carbolic sheep dip. I had a hand of about 600 sheep wbleh I had dipped in cor rosive sublimato when I sheared iu June and thought thoy were cured. When the ruins began, they ofaowod the scab tho same as tho year before. I then poured ou corro sive sublimato und clieckod it, but lost a good deal of'wool, I should think ono fifth About a year ago.E usod your rarbollo hee(p dip by turning a little on all tho sheep and qulto freely on those that showed tho scab. 1 1 endeavored to thoroughly saturate all dls- eaeeu places witu tue dip. iy doing mis iwo or throe times during the winter, I entirely checked the dlseaso and saved the wool, so that my band averaged about fivo pounds per bead, or one pound more thau they did tho year bolero. I used but ouncau last year on six hundred shoep. Illkbltno well anil It Is so handy to use that I have' sont for another can, and havo been over my sheep once, eumo as last year. It does not lujuro tho wool, but sooms to be of soapy and sofienlug nature, cloaning the skin and invigorating the woal ou the dicoaued spots. If you keep the quality and strength up to that of liibtyeir, I think all that try J t will bo pleisad with Itandllinl it na cheap as any inedlcinu u?nd for that pur pose and mpro safe andxintiveuient.
