It becomes our sad duty this week to pay the last tribute of respect to the character and memory of one of the brightest ornaments it has been the misfortune of this community to lose. James Knox Polk Lewis, or as ho was more frequently called by his familiars “ Jimmy Polk" or smiply “ Jimmy,” was born in Old Dallas, about a mile from the present town, on the 12th of January, 1850, and was the young est son of our esteemed fellow townsfolk J. H. and Ellen Lewis. Having grown up in this community ho was known to every one in it, and beloved by all who knew him. His affabiL ity and urbanity wefe almost proverbial, wbiH his moral character Was unbhmished. He was &n honored member of the order o f Good Templars, and sometime la>t Summer be em braced the Christian faith and joined the M. E. Church South. He was, indeed, a most ex . . emP,ary young man and trie Christian. On ■ the 6th o f last January he was attacked with T he L tceu I i .— Last Friday evening the Ly ceum Association met to diacuss the merits of the female suffrage question ; but as the attend ance of members was rather slim the discussion was very short—to the disappointment of nu merous ladies and gentlemen who Were present as visitors—and the Lyceum adjourned, with out a decision, to meet again on the first Friday in September, when the debate on the same interesting Subject will be renewed. In con nection with our remarks of last week relative to this society, we would suggest, as an im provement on their usual system, that when they reassemble In the Fall they ofganize at a mimic legislature. This will give each mem ber dn opportunity of espousing the side of each question that agrees with his convictions, thus giving more earnestness to the debates and encouraging study and research. Besides, if properly con iucted, it will afford the mem bers a means of fatnilarixing themselves with parliamentary ru'es and usages—a very impor tant acquirement to ambitious, aspiring young men. E asily G ulled .— Nearly every paper in Oregon has published as fact a wonderful Mun- chauscnish story originally gotten off by the Uellvillo (111) Advocate, entitled “ Fifteen Years With the Indians.” The hero o f the fabrication is named James Gull, who, shortly after marrying a girl named Mary Andrew (merry-Andrew) started for California fifteen ym rsago. This Gull was reported killed by indiuns, and after mourning his death three years, his wife (merry-Andrew) married a fel low nurned Simsou Dunfor (done fo r). Gull returned to his old home, after discovering un treasures and relics of past civilization on the plains of Colorado during his fifteen years ex perience among the Indians, amj finds Mrs. Gull-Dunfor the mother of eight children, one of whom is bis ; thus furnishing another Enoch Arden case for the benefit o f future poet laure ates. The “ sell” is ingeniously gotten up, and reflects more credit on the humor of its author than the sharpness of the editors who have been gulled by its palpable impossibilities.

A short season is anticipa ted from the scarcity of the snow. At Amelia City, the miners are at work, but the supply of water is expected to fail in June.

One day last week, at Salem, Mr. McAllister moulded one thousand bricks by the use of a new machine, in twenty-seven minutes, with six hands working it.

The material looks like it is of the very first quality, and the workman ship looks as good as if it had come lrom the hands of a skilful man ; but as it is the result of woman's labor, we cun see no reason why more of it cannot be produced ip. the same way, says tho Farmer.
