less reliable metropolitan occupations. This
it 6ii age of such rapid progress that oui
jounguien are not content lo follow the dull
.routine of mral life. The tnall brings the

and thojounj; mind becomes discontented
-with its farrow ranso of virion, as a rons,e
juoiico of thus understanding foihoUiIur ot

lorce ot natural cbaiartur they individually

cannot rural life be made to salUiy any ra-
,iona ambition, and tho country retain Its
wins? The healthiest, most morally wholo
soiao, and ns an average the most iudepen--cluul
uud successful class ol citizens are those
who till the laud and supply mankind with

Thy subject is n3 broad andconiprehenhe
as IiuniAiiity, and tho whole problem of po

the reading matter we expect to see in city

u make social iuterujurse delightful and re
fined, and as a coustqueuoe elevating. A
literary society can ba maintained in every

.ntH-li a socioty was maintained in the hills

pleasure aud improvement to the neighbor

oidor are undoubted aud can be most readily
isiwouiplisbed if thoroughly undertaken. It
uttrikes us that the Urauge otlors a solution
to the very important subject we are dis

The Oldest Pioneer.
Of a few bolil voyagers who spied
oui this goodly land, from tliirty-llvo
t.) ilfty years ago, fcw; very few indeed,
tuv now nuinberotl ntnon tlie living to
behold the ehunge-j wrought by tlnio'.s
lelentle-! niuieli.
J Ion. Donald Matwin, Sr., the eaili-
ct pioneer now living within the
original boundaries of the Territory of
Oregon, is a native of Scotland, and
was born Anril (ith. I SOU. He received
a good practical education in the coun
try schools oi tus native litnti, mm wns
bred to tho plow (upon his father's
farm) until his 17th year, when lie n
terect tho service of the Hudson's Hay
Company, and -ailed for America,
reaching lltulbon Day in Sept. 1817.
Ho remained on tho east side of the
Rocky mountains until 18J;J, when ho
received an appointment to accompany
the exploring expedition into tho coun
try now known as the C'assiar mining
district. At the closj of the labors oi
the expedition, Mr. Man-on returned
by wuy of Twice river, to Lake Atha
basca, aim in tho lull ot JS'-'i received
instructions to nrocecd to the Columbia
Department and report for duty to Mr.
Chief Factor John McLaughlin, in
charge at Tort Vancouver, where he
til rived April (ith, IS'23.
The ensuing summer no -uperintenn-ed
the erection of J'ort Lnngley, tho
first trading po-t established wet of
the Rocky mountains, north of Fort
Vancouver, letttrnir.g in the fall to the
Columbia, where he remained until the
spring of 18U7, when two American
ves-els entered the river; the brig
Owyhee, and schooner Convoy, the
former commanded by Capt. Domintis.
ai:d the latter by Captain Tom-on.
Their object was to establish trading
with the Indian-.
Mr. Mansoii was sent at once to oc
cupv the post of Astoria for tho pur-po-e
of oppo-ing his company'-now
rivals in the tr.itllc. On arriving at
Astoria he found the Astor company's
old foit -o completely in ruin- thai for
a time he was compelled to live in it
lent. Two ve els bolongingvto the
llud-on Day Co.. arrived annually
fiotu Kngliind with -iipjilies lor the
trade, and tlii- year, 1S-J7, one of them,
the William and Ann, was wrecked on
the bar. livery per-on on board per'
i-hed. The cirgo was likewise a total
loss.
At the time Mr. M-an-on was in
charge of the Asloiia post, there was
no white persons living on Clatsop
plains nor anywhere on the lower riv
er. Neither were there any domestic
animals below Fort Vancouver. The
Clatsop and Chinook Indians were at
that day numerically in tho full pride
of their strength. The head chief of
all the Chinooks, Comcomly, whom
Washington Irving-, in his " Astoria, "
so graphically introduced to tho world,
glorified himself in being the " mon
arch of all he htirveyed." Yet his
FiAiple, as well as tho surrounding
rfbes,lived on terms-of good fellow
slilp with their few white neighbors
and occasional visitors.
According to the late Dr. John
McLaughlin, tho first great calamity
which befel the Indians of the Lower
Columbia and Willamette rivers, was
the visitation of the plague which
swept through those tribes in the fall
of 1829, with such frightful mortality
as almost to depopulate entire Tillages.
In the spring of 1821), Mr. Mniison
was appointed to accompany Mr. Chief
factor uguen to csmniisn a po-si home
distance north of Fort Langley, and
which is now known as Fort Simpson.
The following summer he succeeded
in erecting a pot in Mill Dank .Sound,
which he called Fort McLaughlin, and
of which he remained iu charge until
1820, when, after a lfiost adventurous
life of 22 yo.irs, of valuable service, ho
was gratified to receive a leavo of ab
sence for twelve months, a respite
which wai mo't richly deserved after
the long continued and onerous duties
he had ut faithfully porformed. In the
spring of ihe last mentioned year, he
left Vancouver and proceeded across
tho mountains to Hudson Day. whero
lift took passage for England, utid with
out anything remarkable having trans
pired on the voyage in due time reach
ed the desired haven. Arranging his
ofl'airs he proceeded at once to revisit
his old Caledonia home, where he soon
found himself surrounded by those en
dearing objects which brought mast
vividly to mind the fond recollections
of his early childhood and youth. Rut
time passed pleasantly, but alas I too
swiftly away; for the day now drew
near when he was literally to realize
that hentiment contained in these lines
penned by Scotland's gitted bard:
" Strong raein'ry ou my heart shall write
Those happy soeues when far awa"
Once more lie bid adieu to his native
land and turned his face toward the
wild regions of the northwest coast of
America, reaching Vancouver in ltsu.
He was immediately appointed to suc
ceed Mr. Dlack, who had been shot by
an Indian at Kamloop. In tho spring
of 1842 ho was again bclected to .suc
ceed another ollicer who had been
murdered at Fort .Stikine. and in 181-1
ho was appointed to the command of
;sew uaieaonm titstnct; where ho con
tinued as executive officer to direct its
afl'jirs until the spring of 18o7, when
he resigned his commission and left
the company to whoso service ho had
devoted the best energies of his youth
and mature manhood for a continuous
period of more than forty years.
During a visit which he made to tho
Willamette valley soon after his resig
nation wns accepted, ho purchased
from the late Dr. Newell his donation
claim, situated at Champoeg. Marion
county, to which he removed his fami
ly in 1858, and upon which he now re
sides. Mr. IfunoDi in pereoo, is Above tbe
medium height, straight ns an arrow.
His hair, under the snow of 7i winters
is as white as the fro-ty pow.s of St.
Helen and Hood.
Mr. Man-on is n member of the
Oregon Pioneer Association. The
question as to who is the earlie.-t pio
neer now living within, the limits of
tho original Territory of Oregon hav
ing heretofoie been ili-eussed through
tho medium of the pros-, that distinc
tion, 1 believe, was decided by those
who engaged in that discu-sion, in fa
vor of Hon. Solomon II. Smith, of
Clatsop plains, who, like Mr. Miuison,
camo to tbe Territory under tho nus
pices of a Fur-Trading Co., Capt. Wi
eth. Mr. Smith is a native of Lebanon,
New Hampshire, born Dec. 20th, ISO!!,
and arrived in Oregon, Oct. SlKh, IS'"
Owing to the facts nbovo stated, it is
deemed proper at the present juncture,
in vindication of the truth of history,
to give to tin public the nliovo synop

An Unfortunate Set of Men.
When the doors of the Senate wure
clo-etl on Thursday in executive busi
ness ti lively and interesting di-cussion,
which was entirely unanticipated,
sprung up.
Mr. Hamlin, who has been in tho
Senate on and olf for a full generation,
is a great stickler for traditionary cus
toms, lie complained that a custom
was growing up by which unprivileged
per-ons were constantly gaining access
to the iloor of the Senate, crowding the
sofas and chairsand the retiring rooms,
aud interfering with the comfort of
.Senators, until, he -aid, "we are got
ting as had a- that mob at the other
end of trV? Capitol." He lectured the
youthful I'ro-identpro tern., Mr. Ferry,
very severely, and said he was re-
-Vonsible in idmitting people to the
iloor who had no right there; that ho
should not be assuming prerogatives
which did not attach to him.
Mr. Ferry demurely responded that
lie had only followed the precedent
set him by former occupants of the
chair.
Other Senators followed, and -aid
they were persecuted to tho verge of
distractiou by bummers and ollice
huntcrs, male anil female; that many
of theso people pursued them even into
the Senate chamber, and if they de
sired to put their noses outside they
were surrounded and badgered so that
they did not know where to turn.
Mr. Conkling said that recently he
had taked account one day of the num
ber of cards brought to him, and had
ascertained that if ho responded it
would have given him just about flvo
minutes of the whole day's session.
Gen. Rausom, whose seat is near one
of the doors, said that he was made a
messenger of; that men and women
poked their heads in at the door and
asked him to call this or that Senator.
Mr. Conkiinz referred to the fact
that the late Senator Sumner 'made It
an imperative rule to refuse to see
visitors while he wai engaged in offi
cial duties. When n card was brought
to him, no matter whose name was on
it, his invariable reply was, "tell him
(or her) the Senate is in session."
Senator Cameron remarked that he
was much less annoyed by the visitors
and the cards than lie was by the blath
erskite speeches of Senators.
Finally, on motion of Mr. Merrlmon,
tho Committee on Rules were Instruct
ed to prepare a rule which will pro
hibit the annoyance lo Senators, occa
sioned by the sending of visiting cards
while the Senate is in session. Tho re-
coption room of the Senate is crowded
during the whole day with persons

Tukks. It serms to lie the common
belief that theie is no limit to the
natural age of apple trees. Rut this N
certainly a mistake. We all know
that the peach tree fails to be protltable
at 12 to l't years of age, mid the cherry
nod the plum average only 20 to tit)
years; the iiear, iu favorable clrcnm
Btances, to to Ot) ye.tr in rare cases a
mucli longer liuw. Ho, also, the apple
tree has it.s natural limit, and, although,
like man's life, the duration of the
period of health aud vigor varies great
ly according to constitution, nurture,
cJi mate, etc., it.s approaching termina
tion is clearly imlicited by feigns of
debility and di-e.we. On very deep
and favorable soils, and whero trees
are not damaged by tho severity of
climate, apple orchards are found hear
ing fair crops of fruit at 70 to 101) years
of uge, but these are nearly as roro us
for their owners to live so long. Very
few farms have soil of tho tx-st kind
for an orchard, and evcrywhero our
climate is either too warm, or at times
too cold, for the health of tho trees.
Injury by ,-evero cold, blackening all
tho wood, except as new growth is
formed, I am convinced Is a very com
mon cause of tho failure of orchards;
hut starvation, in consequence of ex
haustion nf tho soil, is still more com
mon, and this is a mnrcditlicuit mutter
to remedy than most people suppose,
especially when trees have attained
full bearing size.
"Everything is lovely and the goose
hangs high," is u corruption of the
s lying, "Everything is lovely and the
goose honks high." Tho honk is the
note sounded by the wild goose in its
llights, aud Is about tho only music In
which that graceful bird Indulges.
The meaningless word "hangs" should
be Immediately eliminated from this
beautiful and popster description of
