Our Second Volume.
It is customary with many journals
;io opening a new volume, to preface it
with a long array of purposes which
they intend to fulfill, along list of ob
jects which they propose ta; accomplish ;
but we.do not intend to lay before our
readers any lengthy programme, or to
, ring any" loud sounding timbrels, but
j simply to state that we propose in the
second volume of our papjr to improve
.on the past as much ns possible.' We
propose to make the liRpunLU'Xs a
lively, enterprising and th'orouiih news
paper, one that our people will like
to read, and will feel proud to support.
In doing this, we feel confident that we
.will meet with a hearty support fnm
residents, both of Polk and adjoining
..counties. We are encouraged in our
efforts by the support which we are
constantly receiving, and by the hope
that we will soon be enabled to enlarge
our paper, and ere long, when the busi
ness interests of the comibunity demand
it, to start a daily. We do this, partly
because the people demand it, and
partly because we like to , do it, and
assist in increasing the interest of our
beautiful State, and to aid in develop
ing its material advantages. The' RE
PUBLICAN will ever be found battling
for the right, socially, politically and
religiously. Devoted to! the welfare of
the Stats and country,1 like a faithful
sentinel, we propose to stand upon the
ramparts of liberty, and warn of ap
j reaching danger. j
Kind ; words of encouragement and
.commendation have been received
from different sources which hive made
onr labors pleasant, aud helped to re
vive our courage and enliven our
spirits. For this we feel truly grateful ;
for among the sweetest things of life is
to know that when you are really la
boring for the benefit of the commu
nity, that your labor? are felt and ap
preciated and those friend who have
thus encouraged us, have done much
towards making our labors pleasant,
and will long be remembered with feel
ings of kindness.
An Interesting Relic The First Loco
motive Used lii America.
The first locomotive that was ever
,tised in America, is to be seen lying
ontside of a foundry in Luzerne Co.,
PeoDsylvania. It ovght to be preserved
.somewhere as an interesting relic of the
.early days of railroading in America.
The fallowing description of its trial
trip, taken from Dr. IIollNter's History
,of the Latkawaxen V alley, will be read
-with interest :
"The first Iccomotive engine intro
duced and worked in America was run
upon the Delaware and Hudson Rail
road in the year 1828, and Honedale
(named from the late Philip Hone)
offered its friendly glen for the purpose
of conducting the experiment. This
locomotive, called the Stourbridge
Lion,'? was built in England, of the best
material and workmanship, and mont
approved pattern of that date. The
Toad passed cut of Honesdaie by a sharp
north-westerly curve, with a moderate
grade, and was carried over the Lacka
waxen by a long hemlock trcatling,
considered too frail by many to support
the great weight of the mysterious
looking engine all ready for the hazard
ros journey.
.As the crowd gathered frcm far and
near, expecting that bridge, locomotive
and all, would plunge into the stream
the moment passage was attempted, no
one dared to run the locomotive across
the chasm but Major Horatio Allen,
.who, amid exultation and praise, passed
' over the bridge and a portion of the
road in safety. The engine, however,
was abandoned, as the slender trestlini;
forming much of the body of the road,
sufficiently strong for ordinary ear,
was found too feeble for the weight and
,wear. Major Allen, in his accouut of
this fint trip of a locomotive on this
continent says As I plac?d my hand
on. the throttle, I was undecided
.whether I would move slowly or with a
fair degree of speed; but believing ihat
the road would prove safe, and prefer
ring, if we did go down, to go down
handsomely and without any evidence
of timidity. I started with considerable
velocity, passed the curve over the
creek safely, and was soon out of hear
ing of the vast assemblage. At the end
of two or three miles, I reversed the
valve and returned without accident,
having thus made the first railroad trip
by. locomotive on the; western hemis
phere.' We furnish the Republican and
Dynotest's Monthly for $4 a year. '.
PALLAS, SATURDAY,
PACI3 COMMISSION.
We give elsewhere the! correspond
ence which passed between Sir Edward
Thornton and Secretary Fish, concern
ing the settlement of difficulties existing
between England and America, arising
from acts committed during the late
civil war, and known throughout the
country as the 44 Alabama claims." We
arc gratified to learn that these claims
are in a fair way for settlement; and
although there is not a doubt but that
Englaud has the decided advantage in
Commissioners as to special learning
and diplomatic experience, yet wo feel
assured that the interests of the United
States will bo well guarded , by those
appointed to attend thereto, as each has
a personal interest to subserve as well
as to serve the couutry, as each of theiu
are aspirants for high political honors.
Tho .Am of Feb 17th, gives the fol
lowing description of the Commission
ers on both side :
" Earl l)e (Jrey and Ripon, the chief
Commissioner, is a nobleman of extend
ed possessions, vast imcome, and con
siderable ambition, but not of any su
perfluous amount ot brain, lie is uow
about 44 j'ears old. In the 'early
part of his career, as Lord tiodnch, he
sought a species of notoriety by advocat
kwx radical and humanitarian ideas
Since then he has grown older and less
radieal. In ISO I the Liberal Ministry
wan glad to strengthen itself by appoint
ing him Seectaryof State for war. In
both the offices lie proved a failure; and
the Presidency f the Council, a purely
honorary place, though second in dig
nity only r to that of Lord .Cancellor,
gave him a velvet cushion on which to
tUll. j
Prof. Bernard of Oxford will of
course figure in the Com tuition as
Mentor in the train Tehtnachus. He
is a man of mind and information, bnt
of extreme opiiions, including to the
impracticable. ;
Perhaps the Iblest among the British
Commissioners is Sir John A. Mclan
alJ, the Prime Minister of the Canadhn
Dominion. Ha wid of course advocate
the interest of Canada not alone on the
question of the fisheries, the Iree nava
gation of St. Lrwerence, and indemnity
for damages for Fenian raids, but alo
in regard to the desired new treaty for
reciprocal trade between the United
States and the North American Prov
inces. But even here, where his
people are so deeply interested. Sir John
will do well to remember that he in not
negotiating for the present merely, and
that while nothing can be g lined by
obstinately insisting upon extreme views
much may be lost by attempting to hin
der or greatly to postpone that which is
inevitable.
The two other Briftish Commission
ers are Sir Edward Thornton, the pres
ent Minister of England at Washington
and Sir Stafford Northeote. Sir Ed
ward is a genial and amiable gentleman
and there is no doubt that all his exer
tions will be devoted to making every
thing right. Sir Stafford who has
just been appointed in the dace of Sir
John Il'jse, the disliriguLshcd Canadian
financier, who declined the place has
served both as President of the Board
of Trade and Secetary of State for In
dia, under the Derby and Disraeli ad
ministrations.
On the American side, the ablest
member! of the Commission, and the
one best informed in international law,
is probably Jude Hoar of Masachu
setts, Judge Nelson reservedly bears a
great reputation, on account of his long
experience us a jurist, and his eminent
talents and practical wisdom ; but he
has not I devoted himself especially to
the class of questions which the Com
mission will have to deal with. Still he
will be the most valuable member, from
the dignity of his character and the ex
traordinary clearness and fairness of
his mind. Senator Williams of Oregon
has also gained distinction during the
six years that he has served in the
Senate, and the desire that he should
be promoted to the Cabinet so unani
mously expressed by the citizens of the
Pacific coast has not been disapproved
elsewhere. For Gen. Schenck the
Commission offers a new field of activ-,
ity. .The laurels he has hitherto won
have. been those of a politician and
legislator, and especially those ot the
ready, incisive, and formidable debater;
but we shall be trreatly disappointed if
his energy and patriotism are of much
service in the deliberations of the Com
mission. Secretary Fish, the fifth
American Commissioner, will bring to
his duty remarkable resources of de
partment, appreciation of the nobility
and wealth of the British Commission
er, a respectable though not rapid
knowledge of the history ot the United
States, and a considerable amount of
ordinary good sense.
Tho contract for constructing the locks
of the Willamette balls, at Oregon City,
has becu awarded, the Herald says, to
Morrison & Co., of Cal. These gentle
men are well and extensively known in
Cal. They will commence work on the
canal within 00 days, and.it is their in-
tentioh to employ all the men that can
be used to advantage, and the force will
j be iocrcased as tho work progresses.
I
There are some persons wljosecm to
be endowed with an electric current of
wit, which sparkles and flashes when
ever it meets an opposing one; and a
ready wit, or the faculty of making
quick and ready repartees is a valuable
gift, and the source of much pleasure,
provided it is used with a due regard
for the feeliugs of others. A man of
genuine wit and humor may attach to
himself many warm and devoted friends;
but a cynical, sarcastic person is always
an uncomfortable and disagreeable
companion.
Among the many incidents of ready
wit and humor aro the following : It
is related, that as some friends of
Campbell, the author of Hohenlinden,
was leaving his room after a late sup
per, one of the number had the mis
fortune j to fall down a long flight of
stairs. The poet, alarmed by the noite,
opeued the door and enquired, "What's
that?" ! "'Tis I, Sir, rolling rapidly'
was the; immediate reply of his fallen
friend, j Sheridan remarked, in parlia
mentary language, on entering a crowd
ed committee room, " Will some mem
ber move that I may take the chair V
Two friends meeting one remarked,
" I have just met a man who said I
looked exactly like you." "Tell me
who it was, that I may knock him
down," replied his friend. u Oh don't
trouble youix lf about that," replied
the other, " I did that myself at once."
A physician, who was attending on
Colman, was late one morning in mak
ing his usual visit. By way of apology,
he stated he had been called upon to
atteud a man who had fallen into a
welt " Did he kick the bucket, doc
tor?" replied the invalid.
A poet once asked a friend what he
thought of his last production, An
Ode to Sleep?" Tho latter replied,
" Von have done such justice to the
subject, that it is impossible to read it
without feeling ics full weight."
The colored race are not always so
slow in their repartees, even though
they do not always hit the mark aimed
at. During the late ,war, a colored
clergyman, being constrained to preach
against the extortion of the sutlers,
from whom his little flock had suffered
materially, announced for his text,
.. Now the serpent was more sutler than
any other Wast of the field dat do Lord
hub made."
A happy and graceful play upon
words was ouce made by our poet Long
fellow. A Mr. Iniworth, of Cincin
nati, . being introduced to him one
evening, someone present remarked
concerning the similarity of tho first
part of the two names. Yes," aid
the courteous poet, but in this case I
fear Pope's lines wilj apply : " Worth
makes the inao, aud want of it the
fellow.

will be attended to promptly. ' Man; of

Salem, Feb. 28, 1871.J
Editor Republican. j
Sir: During the past year, in Mart
on, Polk and Benton Counties, I have
often been called to help bury the deal.
In no instance have I found a country
graveyard surveyed, or in any manner
allotted to those who one day must use
it. ; : ..
There is a grave error somewhere. In
most of them oak grubs are left to grow
as they may have sprung up, tho tap
root often reaching to the depth of a
grave. Again, the road to the grounds
in some places winds through or among
oak grubs, depending limbs and fallen
trees. In such places it would seem
that not only the dead, but " the dead
and chaos reign there alone." At Salt
Creek I have two dear ones buried ;
our lot lies next the road or alley (if
there is to be one). Someone, and I
could not learn who, has made a recent
burial on the other side, as close as one
grave should be to another. Now, im
agine, if you can, your chagrin at such
an occurrence, for I must suppose it
was done in ignorance. At a small ex
pense, the grounds could be grubbed
out, the lots marked by posts, the roads
and alleys laid off, fence built, gate
bung, a good hand barrow to stand at
the gate, and a large lock box, with
shovels, lines, ic, always there. A
portion of tho graves in some grounds
are quite lost in the rubbnJi thrown on
them. A . large and dazzling tomb-tone
is costly and worse than vanity, but an
unpretending marble marks the place
just a well, and it is far better suited
to those that rest in the silent city
Will those who are intested (and who is
not) appoint a day to meet at the ceme
tcries in the different communities?
feel agrieved, and ask that something
be done. Jo UN vUCKLlN.
