THE ENTERPRISE.
OREGON fl'fV. OHEr.nN, )!Y. 175.
'I' lie f'unrrrt.
On Momlay tfvpiu'ntf, as x;r advertise
ine?4ti Mr. l'rank tJilder, theee.ehrated
American pMnist, assisted by Madame
I'abcox, Miss (Jalton and Mr. Wliiflin,
gave u grand concert in Pote's Hall.
It was musical feast, such as our peo
ple seldom, if ever before, have had the
privilege of enjoy in:;. Mr. iilder is a
perfect host in himself, and makes the
piano fairly alive with rich mid en
chanting strains. He is a perfect mas
ter of his instrument, and plays with
wonderful e;sc?, rapidity of execution,
taste and expression. Any attempt to
tieserilw his playing is out of the cptcs
tion - It niiHt be heard to be fnllv ap
preciated. All tho pieces that he play
e I were exceedingly ditlicult of execu
tion and yen they were executed with
the '"reatest apparent simplicity, ease
and ""race. Madame Jtebcox has a
rle:-Jint aivl easy appearance on the
stage. Her voice is very sweet and bird
like but not rich and powerful, and is
under the most perfect control. She
Bin trs with the most perfect ease and
44 trills like a bird." It is hard to say in
which she e.cells, whether in ballad or
operatic singing, for she is perfectly at
home in both, and carries the audience
along with her as by n spell. Mr. Wbif
lin has a very sweet and pleasing tenor
voice. JJ'o very mucii at home on
the stage ai:l throws his whole soul
into whatever he sings. His forte, we
think, consists in comic singing, for he
portrays the comic in every tone of his
voice, feature and gesture! JIo did ad
mirably in the comic solo I'm not my
welf at all," and also with Miss fJalton
in the duetr, "Over the Hawthorne
hedge." J loth these pieces brought
forth rounds of applause, and for the
coinic-loving. were certainly exceeding
ly pleasing and attractive. Miss Galton
lias a contralto voice, which, though in-f.-rior
to man y that we have heard, is
n uler a very good degree of cultiva
tion, and in the duetts "with Mr. Whif
lin ami with Madame Uabcox, she did
well. One thing wo admired in all
these singers, and that was, the distinct
articulation with which they sang. In
all the ballads that they sang, every
word could Ixi distinctly heard. This
wo consider as one essential feature of
good ballad singinir, for no audience
ean over gather the sentiment and
beauty of any composition unless they
cm follow vch ease the words of the
piece. We were very sorry that they
were greeted with so smallanaudienee,
Uut wo were jchid that on Tuesday ev
e.iinir, w-ien they sang again at the
special request of those who were pres
ent on the first evening, they were
greeted -ith quite a large, appreciative
and enthusiastic audience. Nnace will
not permit us to mention in detail the
pieces sung, but suliico it to say that
the programme was an excellent one,
and that all the pieces were well ren
dered, but especially the vocal duetts,
The merry Minstrels," and " Tiie
Sailor Sighs'" t lie former by Madame
ISabeox and Miss (Jalton, and the latter
l3- Miss 'ialrou and Mr. WhiHin. Tiuy
wi-re charming pieces, and werecharnl
iugly uxccufeil. We wish the troupe
mi.'ccs. wherever they go, and hope
that tliey will again favor our citizens
with another musical feast.

The Picnic. The picnic given by
the Jrxiigrs of his vicinity, near War
ner's, last Saturday, wan a very pleasant
affair, and all- who attended sjeak very
highly of it. Several speeches were
made, which, we learn, were good, and
a general enjoyable time was had by
all present. Our town folks wero nearly
all out, and enjoyed themselves very
much. A miniwr of persons were up
from Portland, and the steamer Gover

Ttuose, Pa., May 23. The de
struction and devastation at Osceola
is very much greater than has been
reported. Nine-tenths of the town
is burned, leaving scarcely enough
ashes to mark where the town stood.
Chicago. May 22. Telegraphic
and mail advices from those portions
of Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri and
Minnesota which were devastated by
grasshoppers last season, and which
have been visited to a greater extent
by tho same insects this spring, in
dicate that but little damage has
been done, except in parts of Mis
souri, and that the insects are dimin
ishing in number, and but little ap
prehension is felt of any serious
trouble from them.
St. Pai-t., May 21. The Pioneer
Pres publishes dispatches localities
in all parts of the State relative to
grasshoppers. The report is that
there are no grasshoppers in any
part of Minnesota except a very small
area in small numbers confined to
counties near Great Rend, Minnesota
river.

Advices received from a largo num-

A Contrast. In 18G8 Judge Tier-
repont gave $20,000 to be expended
by Mr. A. T. Stewart in promoting
the election of Gen. Grant.
Iu 18G9, after the election, Don
Hamilton Fish gave 31,000 to Gen.
Grant himself in shape of a subscrip
tion toward paying an extravagant
price forahonse which Grant wanted
to sell. Mr. Fish was thereupon ap
pointed Secretary of State; while,
remarks the New York Sun, Judge
Pierrepont, who in talents and learn
ing was his superior, got nothing for
his $20,000 except an insulting sneer
from some of Grant's staff, who said
his subscription was a sham, and
that some other man really paid the
money in his name. Any way, Pier
repont could not be appointed Att'y
General until 1875, and then only in
consequence of a Cabinet disruption.
This shows what a serious disad
vantage there is in giving money to
a party for public purposes as com
pared with giving directly to the
President for his own profit; but
such a contrast is peculiar to Grant
ism, and was never known before in
this country.

What lVe Desire. ,
A short time after our appoint
ment to write up the agricultural re
sources of this county, we solicited
the co-operation of some one in every
precinct, believing that persons re
siding in different parts of the coun
ty aro better qualified to give the de
sired information than we can. To
this request we have had bnt one re
ply, and in order to give our friends
an idea of what we wish, we append
this reply, and trust that during the
week, we shall be in receipt of a
similar description from every pre
cinct in this county. The following
contains all the information desired
by us, but we would liko to have an
approximate value of lands, improv
ed or unimproved:
TUAUATMf PKECINCT
is located in the forks of the Tuala
tin and Willamette rivers, and is
about equally divided in two classes
of soil, known as the bottom or low
land, and hill land. The soil of the
low land is generally composed of a
dark loam with a grayish subsoil
and is very fertile, producing good
wheat, oats, grass and all kinds of
vegetables.
The hill land soil has a redisb
loam with a red clay subsoil and is
very fertile for wheat, oats, rye, clo
ver and vegetables. Fruit grows
prolific; the apple, plum, prune,
and cherry yield bountifully in any
locality; the peach and grape thrive
best in localities chosen for that va
riety of fruit; although any farm
can produce the peach and grape.
Berries of the different varieties
grow in abundance, especially the
blackberry, strawberry, raspberry,
currant and gooseberry.
The land is owned by farmers in
tracts from eighty to six hundred
and .forty acres. Small portions are
in culti ration, and would make good
returns to i-he agriculturalist.
There was ?,00 bushels of choice
wheat raised in ilie precinct in 1S71
and 5,000 oats. It has good facili
ties, for marketing; as the "Willam
ette bounds it on the East and South
wih good roads leading to Oswego,
Oregon City, and Portland. The
nearest point to Oswego is three
miles and about the same to Oregon
City. It has good schools and an
enterprising population.
Laud can be bought at a reasona
ble price, with or without improve
ments, to suit the purchaser. It is
well adapted for sheep grazing, and
the farmers are turning their atten
tion to wool and mutton, which will
eventually prove a lucrative business.
The land is interspersed with fir,
oak, ash, cedar, maple and pine,
with good water and healthy loca
tions. Writ of Special Election.
To the Sheriff's of ihn several counties

Whereas, At a general election
held on the first day of June, A. D.,

severe tax upon the strongest constitu
tions. The hurry and bu-rtfe and anxi
eties of business keep the iiervbtis sys
tem in a state of unnatural tension dor-'
ing business hours, and in the end fm
pair the elasticity and vigor of vital or
ganization. The penalty of all undue
excitement is subsequent exhaustion.
The best remedy for it, whatever the
cause, is llostetter's Stomach Bitters,
tho tonic and alterative properties of
which rapidly diffuse themselves thro
tho entire system, revive and reinforce
every dormant faculty, and restore a
natural condition of body and mind.
Some moral reformers insist upon the
disuse of all stimulants. This, to sav
the least of it, is irrational. All com
Ietent physicians admit that a pure,
medicated stimulant is one of the most
useful remedies known. As a tonic and
invigorant for the aged and languid,
Hostetter's Bitters has no equal. It is
the sheet-anchor of the feeble and de
bilitated. In all climates and in every
species of disorder which breaks down
the bodily streugth, it is an absolute
.specitic. It is also an invaluablo reme
dy f'tr sea-sickness. The nausea and
retching caused by the rolling and
niching of a vessel at sea paralyzes tho
bodily ami mental energies, and those
who sutler from it would do well to
resort to the Bitters as a means of a
sure and permanent relief. No steamer
should sail without a supply of the arti
cle. Among the botanic ingredients
of which it is composed are some of the
most powerful blood depurents which
tho vegetable kingdom affords. Con
sequently, it not only tones and invig
orates, but also purifies the system
through the natural sluices which na
ture has provided.

Tle Question Settlert. Those eminent
men. Dr. Jas. Clark, Physician to Queen
Victoria, and Dr. Hughes Bennett, say that
consumption can be cured. Dr. Wistar
knew this when he discovered his now
widely-known Balsam of Wild Ciierrv,
and experience has proved the correctness
of his opinion.
It is seldom that wo notice anything
in the medical line, nor would we now.
unless we could be convinced that we
are not doing our duty as a journalist
in recommending to tho public the cel
ebrated botanical preparation of l)r.
Henry. Whoever induces the victim
of scrofula or any other disease of the
blood, to use Dr. Henry's Kxtntct of
Sarsparilla, has ltegun a good work.
There is no question as to the result of
this medicine if persevered in. It is a
sure cure for scrofula, rheumatism,
Salt Rheum, and indeed all complaints
arising from vitiated or impure blood.
It is just v.'hat a good physician would
prescribe for ihese complaints, and we
confidently recommend it as being the
lest article now in iije. Br. Henry's
Cough Balsam is the ;:?ost affective
remedy for affection of the throat or
lungs that we have ever know.i. It
contains no deleterious drugs, and Cjr
bo taken with impunity and certainty
of relief. For the cure"of coughs colds,
sore throat, etc., it stands without a ri
val. Dr. Henry s Liniment as an alle
viator of pain, is unrivaled by any
preparation lteforo the public; the
most skeptical will be convinced by a
single trial. It will prove itself a friend
in need which no family should be
without.
Tle "lloiwnia" for all.
Invalids, by nervous debility, desirous of
again feeling the vi-or of health and vim
oi system, should take a few bottles of Dr.
Henley's Celebrated I. X. I Bitters.
Before one bottle Is taken they will feci
the dawn of restoration, of returning
health. No case of dyspepsia, indigestion,
loss of appetite, rheumatism, kidnev or
liver disease, has ever resisted its restora
tive power. Every part of the human
system requires and should receive suste
nance and support from t he stomach, reg
ularly by the liver. If the stomach can
not supply the aliment required, the whole
system languishes. Fortify vour organs
of life with those bitters, and In a few days
you will feel your whole svstem invigorat
ed; for every disease arising from disor
dered liver, stomach or bowels, it is inval
uable; it will revive your shattered sys
tem. Dyspeptics and persons of billions
habit should keep it within reach, if they
value health and ease. 23mar3m
It is asserted as a fact that every canva-xscr
who has turned his attention to the introduction
of the New Family Sewing Machine in his local
it', or who has been forturatc enough to secure
an agency, has outstripped the best efforts in
making money of the old and tried agynts of the
high-priced machines, 'which latter they now
replace. The demand is enormous, and sale so
rapid and money made so readily with so little
effort that farmers, tradesmen, speculator, ire.,
are flocking into the business as fast as they can
secure territory and get their goods on the
ground to supply anxious customers. It is mar
velous to see how these machines sell when ex
hibited, it Wing a recognized fact thnt people
will buy the best at the lowest price. It certain
ly is the machine of the times and does the same
work as other machines at 80 or -!)0, and we re
ally ltelicve it would sell just as readily at double
and then not cost halt the usual price of so good
an article, for it is astonishing to see the vast
amount of labor it performs at so low a cost.
The in venters arc daily inundated with testimo
nials ot the worth of their new machines which
so suddenly and successfully bounded into popu
lar favor. " It proves to be just jvhat is wanted
every' day, by every one, everywhere, who has a
family. It has attained an enviable reputation
in many thousands of homes and factories, for its
solid strenfrth, power, rapidity, simplicity, cer
tainty, and ease of operation, with extreme" beau
ty , fineness, nnd reliability of its sewing; while
the wonderful low price (twenty dollars for a
large and complete sewing machine with a strong
table and treadle) places all iilea of competition
entirely out of the question. It stands alone on
its merits and price. "We advise you to invest in
one at once for your wife, daughter, mother, sis
ter or lady friend and make a hoaie happy, ot
put them in your factory, or what is better, if
you are lucky enough, secure an a:?eney, if there
is none in your town, and make money yourself.
The many new attachments for doing extra tine,
skilful and difficult work, are a surprise iu their
simplicity of construction and far below even
"granjre prices," and will be delivered safe at
your door, no matter how remote you reside, if
you write for them. Address, J. THOMSON,
