The bill for the relief Newton McCoy, of Oregon, has been re ported upon favorably bytheluuse committee on claims.

Cutcheon has reported fav orably from the military committee Representative Hermann's bill to provide arms, ammunit'on. and equipage to the state of Oregon for the militia thereof. The provi sions of this bill have already been given in these columns, in its re port the committee says: "We lind the organization of the militia in said suite to number at present, three regiments, with one unat tached battel y of light infantry aud one troop of calavry, and these are in urgent need of arms and equip ment's by reason of the inadequate supply due the state througti its regular annual quota, it having but one representative in this house, while its population, it is estimated, has more than doubled since the last apportionment. This state contains within its limits live Indian reservations, aggregating within them about 4000 Indians, in various portions of the state, and that in the whole state as large in area as New York aud Pennsyl vania combined there is but one United .-tates military post, and it with on?y one company of infantry; and that along its .'WO miles of un guarded, sea coast, as well as fron tier, there are many exposed lo calities, which may at any time experience the necessity of home defense."

Large dele gations of democrats left here on the train to-day for Pendleton to attend the democratic state con vention, which meets there to-nior-row. Col. John P. Irish, of Cali fornia, the talented editor of the Alta, who came to stump the state for the democrats, arrived here to day and left with the delegation. A SHOCKING DISCOVERY. To-day coroner A. P. DsLin was notified by a Chinaman that he had discovered a dead infant lying in a gulch at the head of Alder street. DeLin drove out to the place and instead of finding one corpse there were two boys, twins, and still-born. As there were no indications of a violent death upon the little person, no inquest will be held. The remains had HPen wrapped in a sheet and thrown in to the gulch from a height of about thirty or forty feet. In tiie fall they roiled out of the sheet and when found they were lying exposed on the ground perfectly nude. There is some mystery attached to the arl'air, which will djoubtless be in vestigated bv the authorities. WE.1TI1EK KEI'OitT. Summary of Meteorology for March LS8S.

Chicago Tribune. One iiundred and two years ago this month one year previous to the adoption of the Constitution ot the United States occurred the birth of Margaret Death in Fair field county, O. She grew to maidenhood and married William Dutton, a young man of her native county. In 1831 her husband died and soon alter she, with her chil dren, removed to Effingham county, 111., and purchased the farm on which she now resides. She was one of the first settlers of the county, and for many years wove all the material for her own and her children's clothing and made straw hats for the entire neighborhood. Mrs. Dutton was an only child, but is the mother cf seven children, grandmother of thirty-seven, great grandmother of twenty-eight and great-great grand mother of one. She had been a member of the Methodist Church for more than three-quarters of a century, and has been a republi can from the incipiency of that organization. She is a small woman, never having weighed more than sixty or seventy pounds, but she is quite active, and can well remember events that transpired durirg her early childhood. She smoked until she was 100 years old, and then, feeling the habit was de trimental to her health, she fore swore the use of the weed, and for two years has kept her vow in violate, sne has planted a number of orchards, always saying she would not live to eat the fruit, but that her children might ; yet she has lived to gather fruit from all, and still survives. She seems well pleased with life, and bids fair yet to live many years. A Helic of Xapolroii. Trince Napoleon has made an other addition to the numerous relics of the First Emperor in pur chasing a locket given by him to a Venetian beauty of high rank in 1809. It contains a portrait ot himself made with his own hair. Such fanciful works were common enough early in the century. With the portrait is a hastiliy scrawled billet-doux establishing its authenticity. Card of TUanks. To those who so kindly gave their aid and sympathy during the fatal illness of our daughter, we de sire to express our gratitude, and we hereby tender to them our Bin cere thanks. Jons asd Mary Hoffman. AX IMPORTANT JHATTEK. Albany, April 2. To tub Editor of the Herald: Portland enterprise in her late endeavor to attract a share of th? western bound immigration to her advantage and upbuilding is worthy of emulation. Ana now that the metropolis of the Willam ette valley and the state of Oregon has taken the initiative, the coun try tributary to her should join in upholding her hands.. It cannot be considered that Portland is act ing solely from selfish motives. The coming tide of immigrants are not all seeking homes in cities and towns, iu fact the majority are in search of homesteads in the coun try where they can eljoy our mild climate and reap the benefits of the fertility of our soil. The Willam ette valley is the garden spot of the West, but the East and those trav eling this way know too little of the fact for us to lay supinely by and wait to catch the overflow. There is a double current now flowing both north and south throughout the full length of the valley, but we catch none of its benefits. And to ascertain how little is known of our country one needs but to visit tiie Oregon & California depot in the morning when the trains arrive, and hear the passen gers just aroused from their slumbers, exclaim in utter surprise at being in the midst of such a 'beautiful country," one they had never heard of or even dreamed of in their rapid transit. Is it wise, or even expedient, to permit this state of affairs to long continue. Albany sits in the very lap of this beautiful valley witn her arms folded and doing nothing, bhe is thru ing, but by the mere advan tage oi her position. She can doubly increase the rapidity of her growtli and without danger of over doing. The city has no board of trade and no organized body to deal with tois issue, calem has a board of trade aud so has Eugene City. We can support one as well as they, and why not? Portland will probably invite the vallev towns to supplement her efforts, and with a board of trade Aloany can make a creditable contribution. But should the invitation not come, would it be presumption to invite Portland to distribute descriptive matter that we might and ought to publish here, along with the pam phlets and other publications which she will send everywhere. Portland will not reject our suit. Tins branch of enterprise will bear discussion, to say the least. Citizen-. Appieton's C'.vclopa'dia of Aiitci-fcan liiaraplij-.
