.SmAXOKn Dikd. A man named Jno.
R. JJorton, aged about 30 years, died at
the Cliff Ilous in this city on the 21st
inst. Ife had been suffering from con
sumption for a long tune, and came
here from St. Vincent's Hospital,- at
Vancouver, where he had been receiv
ing medical treatment for some 70 days.
He was very much exhausted when he
arrived, and was taken in charge by
Mrs. Col. White and others, from whom
lie received every care' and attention
that he could have had at his own
homo. No one supposed that his end
was so near till Monday, wheo his
land bevoiuf the river." A small Dirty
was collected by Col. White to accom-
nanv the hearse to theeemetrv and see
that the body was decently buried. We
know nothing of Ids historv further
than this : but should ho have a mother,
o
Bister, or friend, to whoso eve this brief
notice may corne, it may bo a source
of much comfort to know" that, though
among strangers, he did not lack for
(Wympathv and tenderest care dur
ing the last moments of his earthly
existence.
Tire G(tou Woiik. As a communica
tion from one of our prominent citizens,
we publish the following:
"We think from the spirit manifested
Tuesday night, that our young friends
Rre jrofnir to make a success of the
Young Men's Christian Association,
and we hope so, because we like to see
these voung Christians with all their
beautiful lives lefore them, all their
noble, generous impulses for good, set
to work in harmony and Christian
union; and so we understand this As
sociation has no dogma or creed, but
love and good will for all the race; it
will form a skirmish line, an out-post,
lor the ditlVrent churches of our city.
Four churches aro carl. res actively
represented by two members in a boarll
of managers. ' If it gives our town a
cozy, warm nice place for our young
folks to spend an hour, it will save
many a poor boy from the haunts of
sin. Mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters,
lend us a helping hand.

Pro rosKp Road. The people of Eagle
Creek settlement met at Foster's school
house one day last week to discuss the
practicability of building a macadamiz
ed or plant road from "that neighbor
hood to Portland. We have not harned
that any definite conclusion or plan was
arrived at, and would suggest that they
agitate the matter of a n. ore direct and
letter road from that place to this city,
which project would Iks aided by mu-
ii i twetit u iit i-il iiit iotist frnm nnrfiti7nna
Quid probably by an appropriation from
ctbe county. This road would have a
decided ad vantage over that proposed,
as it would not onlv give them as good
market facilities, but ready access to
the county scat, and help "tr develop
our CTMiiity, thereby enhancing the
property oA" every landholder therein.
AcciOKNT.-rMr. James X. Dolan, of
Portland, formerly of this place, met
with a serious accident th3 other day.
He was runniiisr the hand-ear on his
section near East Portland, and just as
ho was turnin ? a curve at Mr. Stevens'
jdace, he collided with a locomotive
engine under full headwas', which
knocked the hand-car into "pi" and
o knocked Mr. Dolan senseless, cutting
an uirly gash in Ids face, nearly sever
ing one. side of the upper lip from the
jaw. It was very fortunate under the
circumstances that he escaped with his
life.

CONGRESSIONAL.
SENATE.
m Washington, Feb. 21. Mitchell
introduced a bill to locate and es
tablish an assay office at Portland, in
the State of Oregon; referred to
finance committee. Mitchell said
mat since he had hvlA .
body there had been a constant and
reasonable demand upon him by the
people of his section for the estab-
i sument or an assay office, in which
the goid dust annually produced
might be put into bars. There wero
four or five million dollars of gold
dust annually produced there, most
of it by CLiuamen, and they fre
quently exported it to China. There
were many mines in his section
now being profitably worked, aud at
least 1,000 Chinamen employed He
believed at least a million of dollars
worth of gold dust was exported an
nually by the Chinese, which vhi
be kept in the country if we had an
assay office in Portland. He read a
letter from Dr. Linderman, director
of the mint bureau, in favor of es
tablishing an assay office in Portland.
McMillan presented the resolu
tions of the legislature of Minnesota
asking such legislation as will pro
vide for a treaty with the: Indians

mittee on Indian affairs.
The Senate then resumed the con
sideration of the bill for the sale of
timber lands in the States of Cali
fornia and Oregon, and in the Terri
tories of the United States, thepend
mg question being on the amend
ment of Sargent that any person de
siring, to avail himself of the pro
vision of the act in addition to other
requirements mentioned in the bill
shall declare that he has net made
any agreement with any person, or
persons, by which the title which he
might acquire from the United
rstaies, or any rigut in saui lanil, or
the timber thereon, should iuuro in
whole, or in part, to the benefit of
any person except himself; agreed to
Clayton moved to amend so as to
provide that the public land affected
bv this act shall be offered at public
sale as soon as practicable from time
to time according to the provisions
of existing laws, and shall not be
subject to private entry until so
offered for sale.
Kelly opposed the amendment.
Sargent said if the amendment
should be adopted the land would be
bought up by speculators. The
amendment was rejecteJ, yeas 8,
nays ob.
Ingolls said he had no doubt that
this bill would throw all valuable
timbered lauds into the hands of the
railroad companies and mining com
panies of the Pacific coast. He
moved to amend the bill so it should
apply to all public lands in the Uni
ted States alike, and that tho num
ber of acres to bo taken under it
should not exceed 100; rejected.
The bill was then read a third time
and passed.

Oregon has within its limits a dis
trict, of rich soil to the amount of
2,752.000 acres. One-fourth of this
area, devoted to the raising of wheat
at twenty-five bushels to the acre.
would result in a yield of 17,200,000
bushels per annum. Less than ono
tenth of this will satisfy homo con

from unhealthy or fatiguing occupa

proven by its recuperative effects in all
