The ccntcnninl year of the Republic really preceded the nnnivcrairy of the Declaration of Independence, on the Fourth of July, 18T(i. That act crys tallized into form awl culminated into force the elements that wero in antag onism to the rule of Great Britain, and gave us a date from which union was strength and the national existence be gan. Before that . wo were separate colonics, but after that the united colo nies became one people. For fifteen months before Indepen dence day the roar of battln had sound ed on the hills of New England. Lex ington and Concord had roused every farmer to be a minute man, and every minute man to be a soldier. Ticonde- roga had shown the boldness of the Green Mountain boys, who spoke- in the namo of the " Great Jehovah and the Continental Congress.." Bunker Hill had shown a field lost,, but a cause gained, and the "leaguer of Boston." proved so effective that the English troops wero soon forced to abandon the stubborn Yankee capital. The "shot heard round the world "' was iked without a suspicion that it ushered in another era in Earth's history and pro nounced the doom of despotibim The Centeunial Year comes upon a great people whose destiny seems to have passed the climax just before tiie century was fulfilled. In the past we have the record of the prolonged struggle that made us fivae originally, and the smoke of conllict occasionally obscurwl the years that have interven ed, but the Star of Froedqm, shone brighter through all. East audi worst came- the suicidal strife that threaten ed the life of the nation.. Audi still the icgii of Liberty protected' us, and we but need to heal the wounds that have remained, to become a nation greater and happier than e?or before. 'Xhe beuelicent influence of this centennial year promises to accomplish what statesmanship failed to dcy and cures the evils that the arte of t3le politician have- only served tD increase. The softened feelings of the soldiers who fought on either side can best be un derstood when we remember that the- annual tribute paid on bist Decoration I D.ty was joined in by both, and lliat mutual garlands wreathed the graves j of Federal and Confederalo dead. A few days ago, whe-u the century I brought the anniversary of Bunker ill HI, a regiment from Mnryliuul and i the Washington Light Infantry from iiaiiL-UMi vv viv ueicimieu nun joynu demonstration as a portion ot trie mag nificent and patriotic pageant. Fit.

This national anniversary has a pe culiar interest and a great significance.

Navigable Hirers of Oregon. Tbe Kteamer Ohio, that has been success fully runiug on tbe Willamette for tbe part year, has caused quite a revolution in tbe character of boats built. There wilt be no less than five new steimboats ready to run this fall and bnilt after the saute pattern. Capt Scott and bis araociates have certain ly been of great benefit-to tbo people of this valley In introducing tbis kind of boat. Tne greatest advantage It has, compared with boats formerly In use, are : 1st. It will run and carry a fair load on water so shallow that othotrboats are-uot able to run light. 21. By means of stearo-capstan fixed on tbe bow to work on a line fastened to tbe shore it Is able to get up over swifter and rougher water than any other kind f boat. Tbe Ohio even now Is still'ninning to Eugene-while other boats are hardly able to reach Corvallis, and although the water is tolerably low from Salem down new, the Ohio can yet take a full load' of one hundred and fifty tons irom here, and other boats can scarcely take seventy. We speak of these facts lor tbo reason that there are parts of this State that are suffering for want of transportation facilities, that have rivers in their reach not navigated now, but which we think might be navigated by such boat B-ns the Ohio. Atleavtwo think that it would eost but little to have them examined, and the chances are they would be found navigable with little improvement. Woal- ludo now, more particularly, to the Uoipqua Riveras high up as Klkton, to tbe Snake Uiver a high up as Boise City, and to Mac kenzie Fork of the Willamette River. 'Sow, will the local Granges, that are inter ested in tbo navigation of the rivera men tioned, bave them examln-ad by parties who understand what such boats ns tfto Ohio can do ? Do not watt for tbe Goneral Gov ernment to order a tborougb elimination, or wait for Gen. Mlchler to make examinations already ordered. Capt. Scott would be a proper person to make such examination', but I!" he could not boemployed others could be found. If the rivers spoken are found navi gable there will not be much trouble in sett ing such boats as the Ohio to run. Yes, "Exterminate It" Ei. Kvumek: I sao by an item in tho fast Orcyonian tha.i the Canada Thistle i-s growing In vacant lots In tbo city of Portland to such aa extent as to draw the attention of tboso- acquainted with tho pestiferous charastcr of tho weed, and the Orcyonian recommends that "every one who may see it giowltn should tako the pains to set their lice! upon it." Xo doubt tho adviee is given with the best intynt, but I submit th.it in all nrobabll- ity very few Orcgotiiaus would know Hie I pitr.it ns, a dangerous mtibance. and pi-ob-1 , , , , , .. , , , ably none who do know it would have iiiterest in the subject, together with n right to enter upon vacant lots in the city and act upon the advice of tho Or cyonian. During the first year of the life of the AVili.ami:tti: KvitMEit, the writer, as editor of the paper, bail his attention called to tho subject by a gen tleman connected with tho press of San Francisco, who, as a friend of ono of the firm of Ilurgren & ShimUer, furniture dealers, had nothjtil the plant growing at the edge, of the sidewalk adjoining tlu'll place of business, seemingly drop ped there from Ihe packing of imported furniture boxes. The attention of the citizens of Portland whs called to the subject at the time, but I prcsome no one felt euough interest to bring the matter before the city authorities and see that action was hud in the premises. Now we hear of Us occupying vacant lots. Next, if some efficient means of extermination Is not adopted, it will be carried to the market gardens and truck farms outside the city, ami thence spread over the country. Now, is it too much to ask that some citizen of Tortland undertake to secure effective action hy the city government to have the pest destroyed, root and brunch. It is ranked as the very worot weed that furmers in the districts of the Atlantic side where it exists have to contend with. Members of the 1. of H., docs not this concern you '." J. Mixto. ABOUT HOHAIB. Mr. Editor: Enclosed please find a letter from Messrs. Kitcbimc Bros., which will be of interest to many of your readers, as It an swers question which they desire to know. There is only onej)arty out of many that is asking for shipments of mohair, and say tbey have au active market at advance prices. Messrs. U. P. Flint it Co., corner of Battery and Greenwich streets, San Francisco, Cali fornia, are shipping and selling all they cau get; also, E. Gresar it Co., San Francisco, have orders for uiohalrfrom different parties. They have Just shipped '22 bales. Other firms iu San Francisco aro shipping. We have just shipped one ton of ours direct to Hall it Turner, Jamestown, N. V. We have now near tbo Oregon IIne,on their way to Salem, 2,400 head of Angora goats, from ball up to full bloods and pure breeds but few of tbo latter. We will supply the Oregon farmers this summer with auy class of goats they wish at reasoniblo prices. Tbo Angora coit hi Oregon Is as indlsnotisiblo as I tho horses they plow with. They thrive well, increase rapid, aw a first claw meat, and yield more money per head for lloeco than any other animal, hence would piy hotter if foil as other animals. But tha greatest profit Is yet to come: Tbey aro tho best scavengers lu the world; tvJU keep fat'ou brush and bnern. 'luis bet b Keen demonstrated by many I might mention, a-n-ing whom ru J Wlsecarverot MoMiutivllie, John 1'iwii ' Salem, and M. Smllof Silvrinn, ma. t. take brush land worth $7 to f to an hit.

But let the farmer keep a- few goats to do this work., and they are always fat audi prefer such food to the liner clwo-es. Thero are many other jiolnts I might urge and defy contradiction, to provn the aboalute necessity of tbe Angora, to the farmer of Ore gon, but will only git ono their capability to stand tbe rigors of tbe v. inters uubariueiU fur this I will refer you, to Jolin li.ikurol' Mo Minuville, John J.

I am aware that to. some of yoiu readers this is a new (subject, and f presenting so many gooa tutngs in connec tion, will lead them to think there must be some coloring matter in it. But suffice it to say, that I will, when called upon, prove all Ihavosaidin favor of the Augoraaud the half hes not vet been told.

Yesterday, John Van Klelt, who was dig ging a well for Mr. Cavltt, who lives in the hills three miles north of Kola, in Polk coun ty, met his death as follows: The well was down a little over fifty feet when he called to windlass-man to pull him out, as the air was foul. He got Into the buoket and was drawn to within 15 feet ot tbe top when the foul air overcame biiu and he let go his hold and fell to tbe bottom, crushing his skull and mak ing recovery impossible even if not killed by the well gas. On trial It was found that a candle would not burn within seven feet of (be top or tbe well. Van Klelt's body was re covered by the uso of grappling hooks. He was a German, not long In Oregon, who was well known thereabouts, and also in Salem, as a laborer. We do not learn that he leaves any family. We learn these particulars from Hon. Ben Hayden, New Tin Stows. J. C.
