WILLIAMETTE ' FARMER Will to Heaver. A man on Skookum hay, a few days since, killed a while beaver as white as snow, and not a brown hair on it. Ho nold it to a Mr. Young of Olympia, for 75. Mr. Young has been offered 6200 for it, but refused, as ho intends putting it in tho hands of a taxidermist to (stuff. Doacrtcro Caught. Tho Dalles boat of last night brought down two deserters who had taken an unceremonious leave of Unclo Samuel, and went off on a littlo excursion by themselves. They were soon caught, howorer, and will now ruminato on the hardships of life in Fort Alcatraz. Th6 Monmouth Homicide Homo Facts Concerning tho Fatal Affray. Wo published from the Statesman at tho timo of its occurence, an account of tho homicide at Monmouth, which n rcliablo citizen of Bucna Vista corrects in tho following terms : T find in your account of tho recent deplorablo affair that occurred in Mon mouth, wherein MaEon Crosscrly was killed by Did: Johnson, statements cal to do Johnson grcrt injustice, and, with your permission I would lileo to state tho case truly. Johnson, after tho commis sion of tho deed, did not "run off," but got upon his horso and rodo out some livo miles to his father's rcsidenco and told him of tho occurrence. He, accom panied by his father, went immediately to Independence, whoro ho gave himself into tho hands of tho sheriff nnd de manded an immediate trial. This trial camo off lat .Saturday, and resulted in his bcin? i unil over until tho next Circuit Ooi-it in tho sum of $2,00(3. Accenting to tho ovidenco of Eli Crosscrly and soveral others, Mason Crosscrly had been for nearly a year trying to raise a row with Johnson, nnd the fatal occasion Mas tho fourth timo he had accosted him with abusive epithets, trying in overy way to provoko on encounter, Johnson trying in overy way to avoid difficulty and adjust differ ences. Wlnui Johnson drove to the post offico atMonmouth on tho fatal day Crossorly was thcro waiting for him and boasted that this was tho fourth timo ho had planned to whip him. Johnson answered his boast by tolling him not to itrlko him, but giving no heed ho dealt him a terrible blow. Johnson retreated saying, "if you striko mo again I will Bhoot you," and as Crosserlv camo again ho put his terrible warning into execu tion, liring and Kitting mm instantly. Portions who understand all theso cir cumstances claim that no man is under obligation to fight another, nnd because ono man may bo larger and stronger than another ho is not thereby licensed to net tho bully. Whilo tho fatal affair is grcatlv deplored our citizens yot wish to havo croupous impressions corrected to the end that justice miv bo done. Tempoot To33cd. Aswan mentioned a day or two ago, tht) community was startled to hum that tho California, which left hero last week bound for Sitka, had met with un accident and was compelled to put into Victoria for repairs. Tho heavy mow ol yesterday lias laid an trio nnea uown, and nothing moro could bo learned defi nitely than th-.ttho accident had really happened. Tho fears of nil thoso who havo friends on board tho ship were somewhat soothed by tha. announcement that tho ship was 8a fd and that Captain Thomo alono, of all tho souls on board, had been so unfortunate as to receivo serious injuries. Tho California, when ' she left this port last week, wns in good seaworthy condition, and its sho is by no means an old, rotten hulk of n con cern, tho accident, whatover it was, can bo ascribed without hesitation to tho storms that nro so frequent and severe beyond tho Straits of San Juau do l'uca, nnd especially fo nt this timo ot thu year. Tho Pacific coast abovo Victoria is rocky and dangerous, and tho steam ers plying to and from Alaska experi ence on overy voyago squalls nnd teiu posts, nnd aio always endangered by the presence of tho rocks and tho hidden reefs that mako tho navigation of tho high seas at all times ft life risking business. Tho past Win tor in tho vicinity cf British Columbia and along thu coait has been ono of storms and blasts and exceedingly cold. Tho littlo vessels that are couicllcd to vcuturo out hero to brava all tho num. ?rous dangers of tho seas ami tho blast: , and tho California on her last trip was tossed about in a manner that inado Captaiu Thorn, seaman that he if, con fess ho had novcr experienced tho like. Tho steamer was doubtlessly caught in swno sudden and seve:o storm, and tum bled about in tho billows until her rud der was wtenched away and so com pelled to return to port. Mr. Hughes, tho purser, left this moping for Vic toria, but he could not give tho reporter any information about tho accident whatever, ho being as much in tho dark as the rest of tho community. When the California left here she had 20 passengers and 500 tons on board. The steamer is 1C8 feet long, 25 feet wide and 15 feet deep in hold. She registers 673 tons burden and has been in the service between here and Sitka for a numlmr of years, having beon built in 1664, at Mystic, New York. She was constructed of oak and pine, and was lolid and substantial in all re spects. Her commander, Capt. Thorn, is one of the best tried and most reliable seamen on the Pacific, and ho would not expose the steamer or the passengers to Ncz Forco County, Northern Idaho.

Going noith from Lcwislon ono abruptly begins tho ascent of tho Clear water Hills to an clovation of 2,300 feet, a distance of fivo miles by tho reg ular grade, from a summit of which is nfforded a most extended view, which for grandour is probably ono of tho fin est in America, while that obtained mid way up tho grade, though of losser scope, by allowing a peep of tho nearer foreground, the adding of which rendors tho view moro pleasingly varied, forms a beautiful combination of tho picturcsquo and grand. Prom tho summit tho road extonds over a succession of plateaus and hlllnof easy grade, winding through hollows and occasional valleys, tho largest of which being that of tho Cencsee, 15 miles from Lowiston, which is a porfectly level plain of several triles square, present ing, partly by reason of contrast, n most charming nppcaranco as it nestles peace fully within tho surrounding hills, which from their billowy nppearanco would seem about to cngulph tho smiling valley in their dread embrace Theso lands, in nil directions (until roaching tho Potlnch section on tho cast), have nearly all been taken up under the van ous nets, besides largo tracts havo been floated; viz, paid for in scrip, and unfor tunately lor tho development ot tho country, aro held for speculation. From Qcnrseo to Moscow, tho metropolis of tho Paradise VulJoy, a distanco of 14 miles, tho country is of n similar confor- mation, but as wo approach nearer the timber wo find it much better watered, and tho soil heavier nnd richer, covered with u moro luxuriant growth of bunch grass, presenting, when tho sod is up turned, an nppearanco so surpassingly fino that wo can readily coin prohond why its productive; capac ity should bo so far boyoml tho nvcrago of other sections, producing thirty-live bushels tho first year upon tho sod. It is besides of n moro listing or permanent nature, owing to tho greater admixture of and hubsoil of clay. In tho vicinity of Moscow nro somo most excellent bodies of land, most of which has been fettled upon and im proved for tho lust four to six years, among which nro tho Missouri Plat, Four Milo Valley, Paradise, and Thorn Creek, sections consisting of somu twenty square miles ; also a township partially timbered and finely watered, of most ex cellent land, portions of which nro still open to 8:ttlcmcnt. Moscow Is very prettily located upon Paradiso creek, in tho Paradiso valley, nt n point easy of access from tho abovo named tiibutury section, has an abundance of good wn ter, nnd timber but fivo miles distant. Tho town sito was located about two years ago; it has now over fifty build ings and it population of two bundled, an excellent district school building and Ihptist church. Tho Christian denomi nation will eiect u substantial church edifice this year. This sect numbers over GOO members in tho section imme diately north of Snako liver, presided over by Elder a T. Wright. Tho olo vation of tho valley abovo Snako river is somo 2,000 feet, and tho distance to Wuwawai, tho shipping point, 18 miles. Moscow is situated about midway be tween Lowiston and Colfax, 28 miles from either point, with stago nnd mail connections three times each weok, being upon tbo regular mail routo from Lewis ton to Pnlouso City, svhich is an excep tionally well conducted mail and stago line, owned nnd managed by S. Cox, of Lowiston. Next to grain growing, tho most impoitaut industry of this section is tho cultivation of flax, Messrs. C. and M. C. Mooro havo this soason con tracted for 00,000 bushtla nt nno dollar per bushel, an incrcaso of 25,000 bush el' over hist Benson's crop. Tho tamo firm proposo erecting a steam grist mill nt or near Moscow tho coming soison, provided the farmers donate 10,000 bushels of wheat, to bo delivered in threo yearly installments. Wo under stand tho neceainry amount has been promised. Tim business of tho town is upon a substantial basis, as evidenced by tho improvements to . bo inado the" coming Spring, among which will will bo two fino nnd substantial hotels and sovcral new stores and dwell ings.

The new boat being built by Soienscu at tho foot of Fifteenth street, for Messrs. Knott Bros., owners of tho Stark street ferry, promises to be an im mense affair in its way. It will be 140 feet long and 50 in width. Tho pro pelling power will bo furnished by two high pressure engines 1C inches in diam eter and 4 foot stroke, Thiity teams can bo driven on her at ono timo and 300 passengers accommodated without any effort whatever. Tbo cost of tho boat will bo in the neighborhood of $18,000 and when she comes out there will be a sensation among the steamboat people. The charges for portage will bo no higher than they are now aad the effort thus made by tho Knott Bros, to meet the wants of tho traveling public is deserving of and will win success.

Wo novcr have attempted tho writing of n ghost story ; wo do not proposo to do so now. What is hero related is bomcthing to bo vouched for by somo of tho best citizens of Douglas county, suys tho lloseburg Independent. A few years ago n stago hostler named Alex Dunbar was drowned in tho South Uinpqun river, near. Oak Grove. Ho had tnkon tho stago team down to tho rivor to wash off tho mud that still clung to tho horses, and whilo thus en gaged was drowned how, no ono knows, Shortly after his death a traveler rodo up to tho station and called aloud to thoLC within. As they wcro slow in answering his summons, lie becamo quite angry and was loud in his languago, when tho landlord put in an appearance. Tho landlord wns even-tempered (as all landlords should be) and ho quietly asked the traveler why ho had allowed himself to becomo nngry. Tha traveler went on to explain that beforo ho had reached tho station IIU HAD SEEN TWO LIMITS Moving nbout tho premises, mid that ho thought it was not treating him right to allow htm to call so often whon tho jico of tho housu had not yet gone to bed. Tho landlord told tho traveler that ho was mistaken, that ovcrybody had been in bed sovcral hours, and no ono had heard his first call. This assertion on tho landlord's part tho traveler contra dicted, and repeated that ho had seen two lights flitting nbout tho houso whon ho was approaching it, Tho landlord contended that ho was mistaken, nnd that tho lights which ho had talked of, had existed only in his imagination, and to prove this to bo true, he ovu went to tho stago barn, whero ho found tho hostler asleep, and ignorant in tho mat ter. Tho traveler was not convinced that ho had not neon tho lights; but tho subjeet was dropped. A short timo after this, tho landlord, Mr. Geo. W. Stephenson, was rotuming homo from lloschurg at n Into hour. Just beforo reaching tho station, ho was astonished to sco two lights start near tho station nnd float off down to tho river. At first ho thought tho lights camo from tho stago lamps, but then ho remembered it yet lucked several hours of stngo time. Perplexed, ho hurried to tho houso. Ho found everybody in bed, nnd no ono know anything nbout thu lights. At ouco tho story of tho traveler was in Mr. Stephenson's mind. Again, another traveler reported feeing tho lights, and twico nf terward they wero again seen by Mr. Stephonson. Tho ni(,'lit beforo roort (MIX DAVIS Was drowned they shonn forth in moro than usutl brilliancy, and as poor Gain's death followed tho day nftcr, supersti tious fo.rs wcro awakened in tho minds of many, who had como to regaul tho nppearanco of tho lights as an onion of ill luck to somo poor unfortunate in other words, as n sign of thu death by drowning of some poor unfoitunate. It mattered not that thu lights hud ap peared several times without being fol lowed by tho report of n enso of drown ing; thoso who would believe in tho sign, argued that many coplo might ho drowned in tho river without tho world knowing of it, and that the sign novcr failed. ik this idea correct or not, it is ns good as the onu advanced by somo that tho (UlOST Ol' TUB DIlOW.S'ED IIOSTtEIl Makes its nppearanco in tho form of two lights at stated intervals. hy tho hostler should como back to this world in such u shapo it is difiiculf to say, without ho wants it to bo rcmcin bored of him that ho had something to do with n stago line, and his two lights aro intended to represent two stago lamps, ills spirit, then, n uneasy and should bo Hit down. It is not only causing uneasiness to tho. who reside in tho neighborhood of Oak Grove, hut it is not particular whom it appears to. Kvcn Sheriff Hogan nnd his party, tho night they loft hero to help to arrest young Paul, saw tho lights, nr.d they aro ut a losj to account for them. Wo do not dispute that tho fact of tho lights having mado their nppearanco as stated is somewhat strange. Wo aro inclined to tho belief that somo ono is either playing n practical joko upon somo ono else, or that wo aavo n verita ble caso of tho Jack-o'-lantern in Doug las county. Tho Jnck-o'-lantem hi al ways met with in damp places, or upon tho edges of swamps, or abeut manuio piles. Tho light? como in this instance directly from tho rear end of 'ho stago station und float down towuid the river, ami appear only upon damp, calm nights in thu Winter time. If tho lights aro caused by gases arising and commingling from the manure piles iu tho rear of tho stable, it is easy to see that they would be sucked into tho current mado by en rushing of tho waters, and be carried down tho river and on down stream. This is but a theory, but it is tho best explanation wo can now trive for the ap- Iiearaneo of the lights. It mutt be tn :en for what it is worth. Personal. Mr. J. L. Scroggins arrived last ove ning on tho Dalles boat from Butter creek, Wasco county, and rejortH weather moderating. The stock is very much run down, but no loss as yet has been experienced by the drovers. Mr, Bcroggiui however asierU that should ten days of severe weather oiina on nil tho stock in that section of tho coun try would perish. Yamhill all Hight. C)TcirnJ:n'e I.if.yctto Cirlcr. Davtiw, Fob. 11, 1880. With tho sovcral calamities that havo befallen our littlo burg, such ns fire, wind and Hood, Dayton is still on tho slow but steady march of improvement and prosperity. Wo still havo our narrow gauge, but liko tho hero that wished to sco tho battlo of tho 2siic, "it is n littlo way off about n half a mile." It runs within less than a quar ter of a milo of Dayton to get wood nnd carry tho magnates to and from their homes, but it docs its business Itetwcen tho Salt creek junction with tho broad gungo and points south. After tho storm, tho first cstimato cost of repair ing tho road into Dayton was 87,000; when it camo beforo tho couit that cost was reduced to $1,800. llespon siblo parties offered to put tho road into running order into Dayton for $300. But tho object was to t-oep tho road out of Dayton, and consequently tho court ordered tho man in chargo to spend ?250 in making connection with tho broad gaugo at Salt Creek. Happi ly, tho timo is near nt hand when tho lit igation is at an end, and then tho rond will bo run in thu interest of tho j.coplo and not of a monopoly. Pursuant to a notice issued by E. C. Hughes, Esq., tho creditors of tho W. V. it. 11. met hero on tho 13th. Mr. Hughes, nccompanicd by Messrs. Gas ton, lleneh ami Wilson, reached here on tho Quincy in tho afternoon, nnd proceeded to tho bar room of tho Day ton Hotel, whero tho Oregon creditors wero in waiting for them. Tho meet ing was oponcd by U. 1). Pransou, Esq., who stated that thu croditors wcro in waiting to hear any proposition that might bo offered. Mr. Hughes mddo tho announcement that ho had como pre pared to pay 00 cents on tho dollar on till claims held against tho said rond. Mr. Gaston arose and addressed thu meeting. Ho stated that ho was glad that such a proposition could bo offered them ; that a new company had been formed nnd would put tho' road in run ning order immediately, and extend it south as soon as possible. After being fully assured that tho road was going ahead, tho croditors, with ono accord, signified their willingness to accept tho tonus offered by Mr. Hughes, who paid them tho cash ns fast as their accounts wero presented.

J ho daily city papers often, call atten tion to the duality of tbo milk furnished to city customers. Tlicro is abundant reason for iloinir this, nnd they not tos frequently insist that milk must bo fur nished just as it comos lrom tho cow, Put these nrticles leso much of their forco by iniplvim.'. indeed somo of them directly asserting, that a mixture of chalk and water is served in plnco of milk, 'Ibis is absurd ; tho most skilled manipulator can mako no mixturo of nny form of chalk that will bo moro dense than ordinary milk, from which the chalk will not completely settle, upon standing for a fow hours. Wo doubt if thcro was ever a pint of milk sold in Now York city in which chalk was used as an adulteration. In Lon don, milk and other adulterations wero carried to such an extent that Parlia nicnt had tho matter investigated somo yeara ago. l)r, Hansen, who was out- cially connected with theso examina tions, and has probably examined moro samples of milk than any other person snys of chalk and starch iu milk, whilo ho admits that they mny bo very rarely used, that " it has not happened to our selves to meet theso substances in milk," Wr.nklyn, nlso of London, in tho most recent work on tho ' Analysis of Milk," siys nothing about tho occurrenco of chalk. Tho fact is, tho most serious adulteration of milk is with wntor. lie- sides tho addition of water, milk is im povcrished by tho abstraction of cream, Tlieso two, tho taking off of cream and nuttinir in water, aro thu worst that happen to city milk, and theso are bad enough, it diverts attention lrom theso real troubles, to talk ubout im probable, if not impossible " chalk nnd water."
