In his Message to Congress next month he will, according to the same au thority, take such grounds against the Credit Mobilier fraud corrup tionists of the Republican party, as to direct attention to Wadibnrneas one of tier pure and incorruptible men of the party, on whose record ho tarnish is to be found. A 7 V. special says the President has taken the Republican defeat with great indifference. He expressed some surprise at. the revolution in Massachusetts, lint otherwise, as far as is known, he said nothing. To dav he refused to see any one but Secretary Rristow, with whom he was closeted half an hour. After that he was reported unwell.

Under an honest administration of good laws there is no necessity for Leagues; but when one class is allowed to con spire against and oppress another, protective organizations are t lie nat ural consequences. We believe the league of the Granges will result beneficially to the country, in bringing the farming population together in social and ar gumental converse up. on public affairs; but we have warned them from the start, and we repeat the warning, that they can accomplish nothing as a r'i.-s. in the way of cor recting evils, and obtaining a fair deal. They must ally themselves, as ii)!lrt'h"tt:--, with the Democratic party, to accomplish their aims. The country is too large, and the di versity of interest too great, to admit of a special issue, unless it lie one that interests, and is appreciated by tho masses. The blacksmith, the carpenter and the mason want a fair deal, quite as much as the farmer; and the merchant, the ship-owner, and the machinist are entitled to equal considerat ion. An occasion sometimes -will occur when a League of this class, or that, may win a tran sient victory; but no solid ad vantage is gained, no lasting benefit is se cured. Has Come.

The cockroach iz a bug at large. He iz. one ov the luxuries ov civil ization. He iz easy to domestikate, yield ing gracefully to ordinary kindness, and never deserting thoze who show him proper acts of courtesy. Wo are led to bcleve, on a cluts examination ov the outward crust ov these fashionable insekts, that they are a highly successful intermarriage between the brunette pismire and the -,Vy..- bci-o or common Amcr- ! ican grasshopper. He don't leave the p?aco he waz born at upon the slightest provoca tion, like the giddy and vagrant ilea, or the ferocious bed-butrg, and until death (or some vile powder, the in- j venshun ov man! knocks at hiz front door, he and hiz brothers and sisters may be seen with the naked eye ever and anon calmly climbing the white sugar-bowl or running foot races be tween the butterpiates. The coch roach iz born on the fust ov May and the fust ov November semi-annually, and iz reddy for use in lifteen days from date. Th'ey are born from an eg, four from each eg, and consequently they are all ov them twins. There is no such thing in the anmus as a single cockroach The maternal bug don't set upon the eg as the goose doth, but leaves them lie around loose, like a pint ov sjiilt mustard seed, and don't seem tw care a darn wether they get ripe or not. Rut I never knew a cockroach eg fail tew put in an appearance. They are as sure tew hatch out and run as Kanada thistles, or a bad cold. The; cockroach iz ov two colors, sorrel and black. Thev are always on the move, audi kan trot, I should s y. on a good truck, and a good day, cluss to three minutes. Their food seems to consist, not so much in what they eat as what they travel, and often landing them dead in my soup at t he boarding houses, I have come to the conclusion that a cockroach can't swin, but they kan lio.it. Naturalists have ah-o declared that tlie cockroach has no double teeth. This iz an important facUt . and ought tew he introduced into all the prima ry school-books of America Rut the most, interesting feature ov this remarkable bugg iz the love lines:; ov their natures. They han't bile nor sling nor scratch, nor even jaw iM'-k.

To realize the meakne.ss of those uncomplaining little fellers, let the p'.iiosophik mind just for one mo ment compare them to the pesky ilea who light noon men in hiz strength and wone a in her weakness like red hotshot; or tew the warbling mus koto, wild from Nu jersey kat-tail mars: akein, n .n ! -creep h-an : , H ; for to ti; - odl s a n in.', dagger m hiz mouth blood; or horror of hor e midnight in d-bugg, v, ho ov a cr.ick as still and as shadow, and hitches into . ov but v like a starven toe t leach.

In conclusion, tew show that I ain't folding I would bo willing, if I had them, tew swap ten fust-class fleas any time for a small-sized cockroach, and if the feller complained that I had shaved him in the trade, I would return the cockroach and sware that we waz even. - . The excelence of Oregon fir as ship-building wood has been so un mistakably proven that we are sur prised and pained to notice the at tempts that have been made, either directly or by implication, to detract from its icpntation for the purpose of advancing private interests. Not long ago the relative strength of hickory, Fastern oak and yellow fir was determinated' tested in this city, when it was shown that the fir was fully equal to the best Fastern oak, breaking under the same strain. Now comes a wood-preserving com pany which advertises, that, by put ting the fir through its process of curing, it can be made as durable as Fastern oak, thereby implying, or insinuating that it docs not, in its natural condition, possess tlie quality of durability to an equal extent with the oak, and modestly proposes to remedy the defect for the mere triile of SO per thousand feet! We are pre paring, and will shortly publish a statement which will prove, beyond all doubt, that the yellow fir is more durable and less reliable to rot than the best Fastern oak. without going through any process for the preser vation of wood; and we shall give so many silent examples of this fact that no one will presume to question its reliabilitv. -S.

Argus, i Two farmers living on adjoining ; farms in Girard Township, Frio : county, have for years been nn i friendly on account of the disagree- ment about the line fence wlncli'sep I araled tlie lands, both claiming the - ten feet which was formerly the lane, j running between the two places. ! Their children have grown up inher ! iting their iiarents' animosity, and j their eldest sons have several times ! been subpieuaed as witnesses in law i suits which have grown out "of tlijs diilicultv. The case had been a sort of suit in chancery, having run on from year to year, Loth men spend ing their money in lawyers' fees without any legal conclusion. About a year ago the two farmers awoke one Monday morning to find that each had lost a child one his youngest son. and the other his only daughter. Like the houses of Mon tague and Capulc t, in llomeo and Ju liet, the scions of the two rival houses had secretly cherished a fond ness for one another, and, without divulging their passions, they met clandestinely and carried into effect an elopement. A week passed, a't the end of which the father of tha runaway daughter was called on to go to Frie and at tend again the everlasting lawsuit. He went in early to the office of the lawyer, and taking up one of his weekly papers, read the marriage notice of his Emma. It was a terri rible blow, and he went out iuto the yard to try and walk oil' his excite ment. All that passed through the old gentleman's mind was not known, but there seemed to be a desperate struggle within, which resulted in his returning to the lawyer's oftico and postposed the business. Then he drove directly .to his farm, and had a long private interview with his wife; then he did what he had not done tor twenty years went over and called on his enemy. Ho was found sick, having been con lined to his room since the abandonment of his favorite son. Rut the two far mers met, and both for a few min utes stood face to face in profound silence. At length the father of Emraa spoke: " I have come to settle that dis pute; let the children have a lot on either side of the lane, and I will build thorn a house' " And I will furnish ic." So the recreant children were sent for and forgiven, and canie home to seek their parent' blessing. And now there are no mor.9 lawyers for the two farmers, but each has faith fully fulfilled his contract in regard to his house and furniture. The ?s lumber of Type i.i a TVewspapcr. The Pougiikeepsie E-jle, in an ar ticle on " how mistakes happen in newspapers," figures up tlie typo used in a newspaper the size of tlie Eaijlc at GOO.ooO, . e., the actual number of bits of metal arranged and rearranged every day in preparing tt newspaper of that size for the press. We suppose few people think of the printing trade as one of the most ex acting and particular of all the handicrafts, but it is. In making typo, variations that might be allow ed in the linest machinery would render the type useless. It is very rarely that type furnished by two separate foundries can be used to gether without a great deal of trou ble, though they try to make them after the same standard. We read once in a while of a wonderful piece of cabinet work, or mosaic work, con taining ten, twenty, or fifty thousand pieces, tlio maker of which has spent months or even years of labor in pro ducing it and people go to see it as a curiosity; but the most elaborate and carefully fitted piece of work of this kind does not compare with that which the printer does every day, for minuteness of detail and accuracy of fitting. The man who does tho iirst is looked upon as an artist a marvel of skill and if a hundred of his pieces are put in wrong side up or turned the wrong tv.iv. it is not observed in the general effect; but if the printer, in fitting ten times ? many pieces together in a single el ay, puts one where another should be, or turns one the wrong way, every body sees it, and is amazed at the " stupid carelessness of those prin ters."
