Grciil Invention in Telegraphy.
Mr. Thwuas A. Kdtson, or Newark, X.
J., has )erfeoted a system of telegraphy
by whirli four messages, two. In each di
rection, can be sent over a single wire
at the niiuo time. Thi ww done by in
venting a system of compensation for
.seeonduiy ciinunts which existed anil
were insuperable if not oveicome. Not
only m, but he has made it possible to
transmit over :i,flOil words In one minute,
wliloh will simplify the operation and
greatly leduce the eoft of telegraphy by
enabling a single wire to do all the work
nw done by u doen or moro wires.
Tlie niesMiges are prepared before hand
by opeiators who manipulate machines
that mark with peiforittions long colls
of paper. These perforations resemble
the ordinary marks of telegraphy, and
after these messagesare prepared the pro
cesof transmitting them consists simply
of carrying the long coll on which the
message Is thus stamped swiftly over a

Killing, No Longer a Capital Offense.
Southmin Okkoon, July 12, 1875.
Mn. Editor: The caption of tbls article Is
tlio most logical cuocluslon that can be de
duced from the uniform rosultof the notori
ous murder cases that have been nccorded a
judicial hearing In tao Klrst Judicial District
of late. A more flagrant and bruta) niun nf
unfeeling and deliberate murder than that
perpetrated by Daniel Doty has seldom, If
ever, disgraced tho criminal calendar of

wanton and indefensiUe crimes of capital
nature, aecomolished la our midst. Yet

our lame and' decrepit syctetn of Justice.
Another ease of equal notoriety, and
equally luvkinit the most rigorous and con
dign punishment known ta-the law, watbe
ease of Mrs.Brlgga and sua, from Josephine
county. They had deliberately entered! a
school room, armed with a club and Henry

Justification, (as Is believed by the people
living In that vicinity, and which belief k
borne out by the dying dealaratlons of the
murdered man), tnurd red the teacher in the

matter wnat tuelr provocation may hava

When to Cut and Cure Hay.
Figuring on a Swarm of Loetutsv
For a month past we have seen the follow
ing big grasshopper story going the ronads
of tho press unquestioned, and now we pro
pose to give It a test of ordinary .figuring:
"T. e oople. of Oregon, Mlsonri, were
lately astonished bv an tmmenae flight of lo
custs over that region. The mvuriii was from
thirty to seventy die mitxH wide and a bulf
a mile deep and pastwd a', tbn rate nf fifteen
miles an hour for over pixtv hours."
Reducing the above by sooimon arithme
tic, the swarm of hoppers was an average ol
50 miles wide and 9V0 miles long, and would1
reach from the Missouri rite to the Atlantic
ocean, or very nearly so. The swarm was
half a mile, or 2,fl0 feet deep, in the air. This
would cover 45,000 square miles, aud as there
are 15,000,000 square miles in both the conti
nents of the Western hemisphere (North and
South America), the wonderful flock of Kan
sas grasshoppers would furnish a eloud eight
feet tbiclc' to cover with gloom and.de vote to
direct devastation the whole area or the said
Western Hemisphere. Any body with com
mon arithmetic at command1 can see that
these figures are correct; the next thing is to
discover who invented the wonderful lie,
and spare a little ridicule for the newspaper
men who have kept It in circulation.

As for Eastern Oregon, I stand by her firmer
than ever; there Is no such grazing 1" this
country. "Scahby sheep and! sta'v. t in,"
ought to be California's motto. I tuiuk 1

would pursuada those in Orniron to Im Mn.

rain a good deal in winter, they may go far
and fare worse. I am bringing up some
stock of various sorts for the good or Oregon,
but by next week's steamer I will have fol

there, oue of 1,000 tons capacity by Simpson,
at North Bend; one by Johnson it Co., capa

are barkentlnes and the two last schooners.
