CHEHALIS RIVtt COUHTRY, W. T.
tti. Faiimkii: J hco n great deal in
your paper about the 1'nlotiso country,
and think something from the Cliclialiy
country would bo of Inloroat to your
many readers. As to tho will of tlio
Chehaliy and Its trlbutnrlca, it can't bo
Ixmten In any part of tho country. Wo
can raise from thirty to forty bushels
of wheat por aero on an avcrago. There
has been tw much as 100 bushels raised
to tho acre, but not common. Oatn
grow from GO to 70 bushels per aero on
nvorago. Potatoes do splendid here;
they grow from four to eight hundred
bushels per acre, and of tho finest kind.
Timothy, clover, raf.top and all kinds
of grass do well haVS Means and peas
do well, corn dqys 9nly tolerable, but
this Is no corn country, but wo are sec
ond to nono for all kinds of vegetables
and small grain. -As to timber, on tho
high land It Is Mostly fir and cedar,
which Is very thick on tho hills where
tho flro has not been. As to tho bottom
lands, tho river bottom is generally
covered with (' thick growth of vino
maple, with sorn'b ah and big leaf ma
pie, with a profiy good growth of bnlm
of Qilead of very fine quality, which
will bo very valuablo some day. Tho
creek bottoms aro not so thickly cover
ed with brush as tho river bottom, tho
brush Htunding up straight in most
places. Tho creek on which I lmvo
settled is very easy clearing; wo cut
tho brush down when tho leaves come
In tho spring, then wo let it lio until
J my or August, wiion wo set nro to it
and burn oil" all tho brush; then wo
throw up tho chunks in piles and burn
them; and then it is ready to sow tho
wheat and harrow It in, and thou It is
wo got tho biggest crops. Wo have
plenty ot good water in nil parts of tho
country; nearly every forty acres has
a spring branch on it. Tho Clmlinlls
river is navigable from IIh mouth to tho
.N. I. railro.td, and wo need homo en
terprising men to put a boat on tho riv
er; r think one would do a good busl
ih'sh. Ill thu fall tlio river Is full of
salmon or a lino minlity. Mr. Jliiinu
cuiiuiy ot Liuu, ttio road will hardly lo
completed lotlio lattor placo before stops will
bo taken to continuo It to hor limit. Nor
can tho proporly-lioldors and moneyed men
of Salom bo disinterested spectators whllo
cIlbrtH aro being mado to ralso tho means to
construct this road, so necessary to tho wel
fare of tho peoplo of this section of Stale.
When it Is considered that by way of Ya
qiilnaBay tho travel from Han Francisco to
Portland Is sbortonod uioro than 48 hours,
anil tbntall tho freight and travel nfono half
of Marlon, all of Linn, Lane, Ronton, Folk
and DoujjIbh, to and from Watt KrHnolco,VIH
pans over this rond when built, it ennnot be
doubted that stock in tills enterprise will
command a bleb premium. When it is
completed tbo travel into our State will be I
greatly Increased, tho towns on tlio lino of
tho road will all rocolvo tholr quota of pas
sengers, and Salem bolng tho capital, will
recelvo moro than any of thorn. What wo
horegay aro facts, not speculations, which
all can comprehond oaslly, and we hope will
operate to influence our moneyed men of
this city to aid In this work. If some prom
inent man would make a move to this efleet
wo bavo every confidence that material aid
would bo rendered. If those having author
ity would send an agent hero, ho would not
go awsy empty-handed.

AN IMMENSE INHERITANCE.
The most colossal inheritance sued for in the
courts is that of tho Mcbrger family, in Hob
land. Lieutcnant-fJoneral Mctrgcr dc Wei

ground of want of heirs. General Metrger uas

Intel claim to tlio property. The suit lasted 1M)
years, until 17'JI, ilien William III, of Orange,
declared it outlawed by time, and continued
tho original seizure- by tho State. New proof
having recently been discovered, tho Mctzger
heirs have petitioned the French, .Swiss, anil
American covernincnts to assist them in recur-
ing the rigliti of branches of tlio same family
living under their protection. Withsiinplo ami
compound interest, it is estimated that thu
estate in question equals in uluethe whole
umount of coined gold in the world. San

Yesterday, Mr. Emanuel Metrgcr, who re
(ides in this county, near Marion Station, came
to this city, and secured the services of Mr.
