Whether the object be that of Queen
Catherine, to perpetuate their names,
and grafify a desire to behold the un.
conditional homage of au unsophistica­
ted populace, or to asccrtaiu the ex
tent to which the people of the Pacific
coast can be gulled, or to establish a
mammoth corporation which will stand
as a perpetual engine of destruction to
the free and independent will of the
people—controlling them politically, so­
cially. und financially, time alone will
will prove; hut sufficient has already
been developed to justify most any
charge of corruption and outrage upon
tho people, limited only by the capaci­
ty of that great gambler in stocks,
cards, steamboats, and the resources ol
the country. It is what that Company
would do if they could, of which we
shall speak.

is, subject to censure, on account of the
evil which it has entailed ; but with
the motives of the members, wc have
nothing to do, feeling that they were
honorable, and that their action was
prompted by a desire to subserve the
interest-* of the State.
It is not strange that members were
for weeks undecided, or that their fi
nal action was one which is already
b ginning to appear to be directly an
tugonistic to tho interests of the State
ot Oregon.
It is is a fact that (he prosperity of
Central, Eastern and Southern Oregon
has been bartered away to an unscrupu­
lous and iner«.inary Company, which
has already commenced to to turn noon

was extended to it in kitidne-s—aud to
rob us of the commercial advantages
which our position marked out for us.
Wc repeat that every section ef the

inal directors thereof are, if anything,
equally deceived aud wronged.

ty, in eastern Oregon, offered an amend,

General Government to construct the
Salt Lake branch in a direct line to Pu­
get Sound, via the Snoqiialimie Pass,
and that amendment was bitterly at­
tacked by members from all portions ef
the Slate—by Gazelyuf Douglas,White
of Jackson, Chapman of Multnomah,
and many others—and ou a final vote
w as r<jeeted: Nays, 45; Yeas, 1.
The reasons offered by c ich member
wero the same: They objected in the
strongest terms to any action on the
part of the Legislature looking to the
recognition of the commercial predom­
inance of Puget Sound, in Washington
Territory, oyer the ports within the ter-
r’torial limits of our own State. It was
an unsafe proposition for the rival rail
road companies to entertain ; and when
the llolladay Company, to secure the
votes of certain members, promised to
throw their influence infavor of the di-
eet route, they made that promise in
secret, and in secret it was and still is
kept. Tn titi /as me Wtrs all right, but

it required two-thirds of all the mem­

for the transaction of businass, and
that the Democrats never had a two-

they might have s-ved themselves the

I t is a scientific fact that, during this
process of human degeneration and de«
cay an immense number of powerful
poisons have been introduced into the
medical repertoire, while the mild veg­
etable system of treatment exclusively
practiced when the world was young,
has been in a great measure abandoned
by tho medical profession. This is a
singular coincidence, and it suggests
the possibility ot a direct connection be.
tween the physical deterioration of tho
species, and „the wholesale administra.
tion of deadly miucral and other drugs.
It may well he doubted whether the
mineral salts and oxyds, and the no less
dangerous alkaloids, wlrch chemistry
has added to the pharmacopoeia, have
not destroyed more lives thau all the
diseases they have been prescribed to
cure. One thing, at least, is certain—
viz : that the average term of human
existence has been shortened since the
days when the vegetable kingdom was
the only medical dispensary known to
mankind.
The truth is—and sensible people arc
becoming more alive to it every day—
that tho world is overdoetoved. The
principles of medication aro simple;
but they have been so befogged by tech,
idealities, so mystified by profes ional
verbiage, that one half the community
fancy they can neither be interpreted
nor applied except by persons who have
been taught to clothe the living truths
vf science in dead languages. It is not
to the interest of “ the Faculty” that
the throiy and practice of medicine
should be simplified and popularized ,
aad therefore the public conceive but

tingencies. With a system strength­
ened and fortified by the use of this in.
vigorant, no one who possesses common
a prudence need fear the effects of maU
aria. It is the lest safeguard against
infection at present known. It produces
appetite ; it promofes digestion ; it pre­
vents constipation : it regulates the flow
of bile; it strengthens the nerves, it
purifies the animal fluid.-; it clears tho
brain; and, the vehicle of its medical
properties being .a pure diffusible stim­
ulant, their influence is extended to
every portion of the system. Mcra
alcoholic stimulants, though administer*,
eu largely iu medical practice, arc not
iu themselves medicines ; but they per­
vade the whoie orgauizatiou more cer­
tainly and swiftly than anything else
tnat can be given. They are quickly
taken up by the absorbents, and tliero
is not a fiber of the body between tho
crown ot the head aud the sole of tho
foot whieh is exempted from their in­
fluence. Hence a spiritous stimulant
is the best medium for conveying to all
the organs and members of a leeble or
disordered system the means whereby
that system is to he recruited and reg­
ulated. I t is for this purpose that the
alcoholic elements is used in the pre-
partition of Hostcttor’s Stomach Bitters,
It is simply the instrument by which
the medical virtues of the preparation
are carried to their objective points and
rendered active.
i t is alm ost necessary to call the attention of
dyspeptics io a medicine which is everywhere
recognized as the standard specific for Indiges­
tion. In every town in the United States which
c«mtains a drug store, or a store in which drugs
aro sold, it is known as a remedy for stom acu
complaints of every class, from simple flatulen­
cy up to the most obstinate chronio torpidity
of th a t most im portant organ. Its anti-bilioua
properties are also universally understood a n d

the old “ Ague cures” have been generally
