Tho winter season with lis dull days and longovonlngs Is upon us and we cordially invite our friends and correspondents to again resumo their valuable contributions to the Willamktti: Faiimer. Last year wo were favored with many such communica ttoDs from all quarters, and wo felt pleased at calling out so genoral an interest among tho friends of nfrriculturo. The subject Is far from exhausted, for we have the varied ex perience of anothor yoar to gather wisdom from, and it will prove plea? ant as well as profitable to many, to make this experience known and draw tho lessons that can be de rived therofroui. Tho field is wide ond in creasing. Tho cultivation of cereals alone furnishes an Inoxhaustablo subject for in vestigation, and tho cultivation of grasses Is ono (it almost equal Importance, which has never boon Investigated and thoroughly ex perimented upon. The testimony of gardens and orchards is to bo gathered and compared, and here wo havo a wide flold for discussion. Tho per son who adds to our stock of information on those branches of farm production will con fer a favor on all his fellows. There are new products to talk of, and no doubt there are many things adapted to Oregon soil and climato, not yetpermanontly eslablised, that would add to tho range and variety of produc tion and give more opportunity for tho es tablishment of mixed hubbandry. Many a man or woman, young as well as old, hesitates to write because thoy fell In experienced in lltorary work. They have faith in their ideas, but thoy havent faith In thoir capacity to oxpress I horn grammatically. They dont write a clerk's hand and misspell occasionally. Now tho fact is that all we want is your Idea in your own language. Never mind the bad spelling or the dofective grammar., or tho poor penmanship. Give us tliu (acts just as you would tain them toanoighbor and you will be wondorfully surprised to seo how well tho facts will look In print. It is our business to spoil and uso Kood trranunar, and wo sometimes take slight llberllos in correcting errors In cor respondence. You will be perhaps surpris ed to know that many of our best corres pondents aro a llttlo reckless about gaammar and spelling, and wo will frankly confess that many an editor stumblos over Umbo same ovils. Ills work is ofton rovlsed by tho printer boy, whoso business it is to spell well; last of all tho priutud slips are revised and corrected by tho proof reader, and occa sional accidents to tho science of orthography happen oven then. Wo see to It, thou, that matter Is revised whon necossary, and our frionds can depend on bolug well used if thoy will put their Ideas down in Ink and send them to us. Furthermore, the Fa nit Kit Is a family papor, aud wo shall bo delighted to hear from tho wifd aud mother, as welt as tho father. Wo would lllco each weok to have a well filled woman's department; also a children's and youth's column; aud there aro certainly plouty of young gentlemen and young ladles In evtsry neighborhood that would like to holp us to Ideas. To all we ay: Send us what you have to say aud we will uso you Wfll. The Hold of a family paper lucludos soolal life In all its aspects. To make this com. pletewu must ropresont tho social circle, from tho b.ibo lu tho cradle to the grandsiro in his easy chair. All the comforts and dis comforts of Hfu; all that aro calculated to cul tivate and Improvo and ulovate tho soolal re lations, aro pertlneut to our columns aud will be welcome. Our aim is to do good to tho community, advance good morals, give correct Intelligence, and especially to ad vaui'o In all lespecta tho iutoroate of the huvbandmau. From Coqiullo.

Howls that for a " land holder ? Nov. 2d. We have fair weather again, and our citizens appear on the streets without umbrellas, and with their boots blacked. A very pleasant change. There Is a great " outpouring of the spirit of the Lord " hero, among the " Christian denomination. Numbers are joining overy night, and baptizing is the order of tho day. Tho unsanctlfled outsiders intlmato that this nowly-gottou religion is but "akin deep," and thai the Christmas dances will dispel It all ; but it is to be hoped that it will bo oth erwise.

The Credit of tho Nation. nun. a. it. ifiiiMJU noiLi dk xjwuiavu.u, "J'., in 1801, "I coined tho credit of the nation." Tho people to whom ho talked understood it too; they know well our greenbacks were enabling us to outllvo them ; and whon I hear men crying "Kag baby," "Greasy greenbacks," or with contemptuous assur ance refer me to the "Continental currency," I am led to wonder if thoy ever, in thoir meditations, ask themsalvesJHow would it have been with this grand country, had the Revolutionary patriots insisted on using notning tor money uut goiu ana silver, ana determined that they would not uso any oth er thing, or inovo one step fuithor until they could have this coin, this " intrinsic value," the "only true money"? Ask yourself, whon next you are about to swear at even Continental bills, or "rags," Suppose the brave, true mon of those dark days had done as indicated, and as you would have done. where would this Centennial come in I Poor as their "rags " were, they served them bet tor man goia, wnicn siunic away and cow ardly hid out of uso and sight. Continental bills and "rags" or the bank of North America gave us the right to celebrate Inde nendence Day. So, too. greenbacks stayed by us and serv ed us as loyal dollars, (whon this same gold desorted us,) and gave us tho ability to save our country, "one and indlvislblo," against tho sympathy of all the great aiistocracles, and a powerful iutornal foo. And wo can say moro: had the entire amount of coin, in cluding that In private hands as well as In banks, beeu poured into the treasury of the country, it would not havo supplied tho need thrco mouths, and wo had no foreign credit, trade was all paralyzed, business con fidence in utter ruin. What was it that re vivod, in this hour, the drooping hearts of the people? what was It that brought out the resources of the whole North to the Gov ernment's aid, and saved it ? "I coined the nation's credit"; greenbacks, oto.; nothing else furnished that power. A. M. Dawley, in ltttron's Helper. Morton on Counting the Electoral Votes. Reporter Can you tell me how the ques tion of a disputed electoral vole can be set tled? Senator Morton In I860 tho twontv-second Joint rule was adopted. It worked as fol lows: wnen tne senate and House assem bled in joint mooting to count the electoral vote, if any objection, no matter how trivial, was made with retard to the vote In anv State, the two bodies separated and a vote wunoui uouaio wastaaou. it eituer 01 tuem supported the objeotion the vote of that State was cost out. Recognizing the suicidal pol icy of this rule, I battled against lt until it was finally repealed. I then introduced a bill providing that, lu the event of an objeo tion being raised to the vote from any State, that objection could only be sustained by a confirmatory vote from both houses. For throe years I struggled to pet this bill through, aud it did pass the Senate twice. On the first occasion it was quashod by Democrats lu tho Ilouse, but on tho second, last winter, Senator Thurman, who bad boen its strongest advocate, from over cau tion moved that tho voto bo reconsidered, and the bill went to the wall. 1 was wearied with striving, and said, "Do as you will." Just before the close of the session the Dem ocrats became alarmed at tho situation and were anxious to havo prompt action taken in the matter, for they found out their mis take, but lt was too late. And cow wo are thrown back upon the rule, or misrule, which prevailed prior to the tweutv-seooud joint rule, thus leaving the power entirely in iue nanus 01 tuo vice-rresiuent. rne pre sent Vice-I'rosldout is not a Democrat, and that party fears the sting of its own action. Thla custom of leaving tho decision to the Vloa-Fraaldent arose from a casus omissus lu the Constitution, aud the effect was made evidout by the w of Wisconsin in 1S57. Before your day, eh? Well, the matter stood thus: Owing to a bovoio snowstorm the Presidential electors in Wisconsin failed to moot ou tho appilntod day, but cast their votes on a later date. When the eloctoral voto was being counted by Congress, an ob jection was raised against Wisconsin on tho ixruuim or non-coutormance to tuo taw. Vico-1'rokldent Mason, of Vorplnit, refused to entertain the objection, and tho voto of Wisconsin was counted, as ho alone had the right to throw It out. So you sou we aro In pjooUely tho samo position to. day, and must depend upon the judgment and impartiality of Ottoman. 1 grant you it is too great a powor to lt) vested in one parson, and there lure It Is that I tried to remedy It. 8, J Call. Anioricau Hones in Scotland. At a recent meeting of the Glasgow Tram way and Omnibus Company, as reported In Mm Ohixgow Herald ol Aug. 10;h, tuo chair man, Mr. T. 1). Flndlay, made the following Mtntemeut, which is highly complimentary to our Amorlcan liotsos: "Regarding the horsing of the cars, ho thought the Glaogow Tramway Company might 11 itter tluuiiselvos that they had got a stock of lioi.soa in their cars that would bear Uvoiiiblo conipniUnu with hordes bolouglug to any otlur conipmy lu thu Kingdom, Tim romprtuy now got "oil their horses from Allies lea? and this sy.stom, which had only Iim'H experimented upon at the timu tho hut meeting was held, hail turned out very favor ably United. Many ot the horses that bud come over woro of a elms quite superior to whut was required, and thoy had therefore been enabled to ndl si number of horses at n or,y fair pioflt.

Hu thnmrht that thla 1 art of the Tramway I Comnanv'a busings was In a fair wav to give hivtinfaotion to thu shareholders," We have long beeu of the opinion that our Auieilcjii horses are tho Uut in thawoild lor llfcht harness, or roadster work, aud iv- ery indication goes to show that this fact Is being realized by foreign countries, and moroespec'ally by tho people of Groat Brit ain. And we are cognizant of several ex tensive drafts now being made from our own trotting stotk for English stables. National Livestock Journal. The St, Lotus Fair. The St. Louis Daily Republican closes an elaborato editorial article on the St. Lt uis Fair, which opened October 2d, and closed October 7th, as follows: "An entirely new feature lias been added in tho shape of a "department of natural history," which embraces a zoological gar den arranged 01 scientific nrinclnles. nnd ri valing in styto of architecture, landscape scenery and rare collections of animals, any Institution of the klud In Atnorlc. The As sociation, which has already expended in buildings and premiums 51,000,000, offers this year a premium list of 850,000 certainly a noble reward for merit in the Industry and nuu,u no m mu iounuaiion or national prosperity and national culture. The competition in the various depart ments ia Hkelv to bo more lively than ever before, and the fact that Important contributions aro expected from leading manufacturers in England, France and Bel gium, will of course make the competition iuuiu imeiuouugas wen hs moro instructive. The St. Louis Fair Is now conceded to be the foremost in the world, No other annual exposition In thig country or In foreign lands approaches it in size, perfection of detail, the amount of premiums offered, or the number of visitors. We are glad to know that the management fully appreciates the position gained, and is determined to main tain ltby persistent labor under the guidance of the lessons experienced, and by that mu nificent yet Judicious liberality which" has accomplished so much in the past and which is iue surest guarantee lor tne future" Combined Header and Tresher. Many of our readers will remember the report, glveu by us last year, of the work ings of a combined header and thresher in tho harvest fields at this place. Tho Inven tion was that of Mr. W. B. Rico, of this place, where the machine had boen con structed by a company. Owing to tho de fects In the construction of some parts of the machinery, tho combination was a failure as lt thon stood. There woro many, how ever, who believed the principle and patent could be made a success. Consequently a a new company was organized with part of the old members, and two of the machines were built the past year lu tho town of Stoekton. The trial test of the first of tho new machines has been made on theSonora road, near that place. A letter, shown us from a practical machinist, and himself an inventor In improved agricultural imple ments, states that the combined header and thresher Is proving a success. Some several huudred acres df wheat havo already been harvested, the machine cuttiug a lG-foot swath, with tho aid of tnree men and 10 mules, hoaded, threshed and sacked tho grain at the rate of 40 acres por day, the ma chine, It is claimed, doing Its work well. Our practical farmers can very readily esti mate the saving there is iu such woik us is htiro reported to us, and which we believe to be from reliable authority. The news of the workings of this machine, if true in ev ery particular, will maik a great event In this valley. Our farmers can then afford to laugh at tho cheap labor system of Russia and India, with which thoy havo to, to a great extent, compete. Forty-six acres a day of wheat cut, threshed and sacked, with the aid or but three men and 10 mules, Is a Item in time and expense to our farmers of no small consideration. Mr. A. liewel and W. B. Rice, of this placs, are still own ers In one half the patent. Stanislaus (Cal.) Ncivs. Thomas D.

Tne Pool of Siloam. Charles Dudley Warner writes to the Atlantic as follows: On our way to the Pool ofSlloam we pass ed the village of Slloim, which Is Inhabited by about a thousand Moslems a nest of stono huts and cavos clinging to the side hill, and oxaclly the grey color of its stones, Thecccupatlon of tho Inhabitants appears to bo begging, and hunting for old copper coins, mites, and other pieces of Jewish money. These relics they pressed upon us with the utmost urgency. It was easier to satisfy the beggars than tho traders, who sallied out upon us like hungry wolves from their caves. There is a great choice of disagreeable places in tho Est, but I cannot now think of any that I should not prefer as a residenco, to Siloam. Tho Pool of Siloam, magnified in my in fant mind os 'Slloam's shady rill,' is an un attractive sink-hole of dirty water, sur rounded by modern masonry. Tho valley hero is very stony. Just below wo came to Solomon's Garden, an arid spoi, with patch es of stone walls, struggling to boa vegeta ble garden , and somewhat green with lettuce and Jerusalem artichokes. I have no doubt It was quite another thing when Solomon and some of his wives used to walk here in the cool of the day, and even whon Shallum, the son of Col-hozsh, sot np "the wall of tho Pool ofSlloam by the king's garden." Moncuro D.Conway, from London to the Cincinnati Commercial: "A Unitarian minis- tor, Rev. Harbert Afnslle, has died, and with him it Is to be apprnhouded that the last chance of discovering Palno's bones has dis appeared. Mr. Georgo Jacob Holyoake affirms that Mr, AltiMIe once said that he Mr. AinslieJ possessed the skeleton of Paine which Cobbett brought back with him from America. The writer hereof twice address ed Mr. Alnslle on the Bubjoct, but was answered never a word. The felling over here that the ingratitude of Republics is be ing again illustrated by the way in which Palne's services are disregarded among the Centennial celebrations of America is not confined to 'infidels,' and I am certain that a sum which would surprise many could be raised In England to iutor the bones of Paine and raise a monument oyor them." Some of tho hotels have bills-of-fare with a fly-leaf covered with cards of various bus iness honses. An Oregou man recently took a seat behind ono of them, when a waiter appeared with " What will you have sir?" To the utter confusion of the'watter he leis urely remarked "You may feteh mo a new sot of teeth, In gutta-peroh'a ; an improved sowing machine, with a patent lock stitch: a box of Brandreth's pills and a pair of num ber seven French calf-skin hoots." In a moment tbn waiter roplld, "We do not lur- nisb those articles." "Then what have vou got It on tho bUl-of-f re for?" retorted the customer. Eastern Exchange.
