Ex-Senator Underwood, of Ken tucky, died on the 23d ult. The Walla "Walla Fair will be held on the 17th of September. A stack of hay at the Walla Walla garrison contains 250 tons. The City of Salem is to have new and more powerful machinery. A little child of P. O. Roorke, of Baiem, was drowned last week. Tii e Camp Carson miners, Union county, are showing good earth. Another case of smallpox has made its appearence in East Port land. Some Chineso have been sent from . new xoik to ixmdon to start a laundry. Exemption from jury dutv is grant ed to members of the Seattle fire company. Tom !Merry is writing up the Pa- cine uoasi coai iraue ior tue duu Francisco Chronicle. Wheat is now freighted from Wal lula to Astoria for $7 per ton, or about 20 cents a bushel. Messrs Reynolds, Tull and Pel land have received the contract to paint the Salem school houses. An immense water tank, capable of holding 100,000 gallons is being built by the Seattle Water company. John Scott of Walla Walla county, witb chis hired help, cut, threshed and storea 2,000 bushels of wheat in one day. A dwelling house belonging to Mrs. S. D. Smith, three miles below Walla Walla, was burned down the other day. Railroad trains in Mexico carry three soldiers to every passengers. The passenger is taken along to pro tect the soldiers. Artesian wells will be tried on the bench lands in the Walla Walla coun try. If success is securred much land now almost worthless, will be made valuable. Gen. Nesmith of Polk county has 100 head of cattle, 4 horses, 500 sheep, 300 hogs, and one of the most beautiful and best improved farms on the Rickreal. The commissioners of Walla Walla county have agreed to levy a tax of 16 mi lis on the dollar. Thi3 levy is made necessary by the improvement of the court house and the Wallula road. Clinton Macy, living some six miles east of Harrisburg, has har vested one hundred and thirty-six bushels of wheat from three acres of ground. That is pretty good for this year. The Republicans of New York have nominated E. D. Morgan, for Gov ernor, and Sherman S. Rodgers for JLieut. Governor. They make a good team, and will poll the full strength of the Republican party. The Avalanche says grim visages of approaching winter have already be gun to waylay the people of Silver City. On the 8th of August it snow ed at a lively rate. The question arises whether it was the last snow of the past or the first of next winter. o The Walla Walla Watchman says there is a strange disease among horses hero which, although not fata); renders them unfit for service. The flanks swell up and the animal seems cto suffer from a high fever, becomes weak in the loins and stag gers in its walk. , The 'Washington Standard, of Olympia is told of a farmer in Thurs ton county who has held his wool crop for the last threo years, under the belief that staple was much O O higher in the Ea-t than here, and that the local traders, were not offer ing him a fair price. He don't be lieve the newspapers give correct market reports, but are in collusion with the dealers. In the meantime he bnys his supplies on credit and pays interest on the debt thus made, securiug the same by mortgage on his homestead. A correspondent writing to the Pendleton paper" from Lena, under date of August 15th. cives the fol lowing particulars of a severe acci dent : Miss Alice Ayers (living n Little Butter creek,) had her col lar bone broken last Sunday while on her way to a neighbor living close by. She had just passed a band of In dians and was approaching a pack animal that was coming leisurely along the road. When within a few yards of the packed beast the pony she was riding seemingly noticed the animal for the first time.wheeled with n bound running down the hill, throwing Miss A. backward upon the hard ground far below the road. She immediately weut home, where the fractured part was dressed. She is now getting along as well as could be expected. Miss A. sustain ed no other injuries from the fall than above mentioned." Apropos of the current silver dis cussion, here are some interesting facts pretaining to the early coinage of 1804. about 811,000 was the pro duce of virgin gold from Cabarras county, N. C, and, from that time to 1827 all the gold in this country . was obtained from that state, amounting to 110,000. The gold mines in Rowan county were, at one time, "the richest in the Atlantic States;" and yielded about S200.000 annually. A bar of silver fro-u one f the mines in Davidson county, N. C. in the New York, exhibition, in 1853-4, is said to havo been the first smelted from the ores in the United States. "The copious yield of cold" by the mines of the southern states induced Congress, in 1838, to estab lish threo mints, one at Charlotte, N. C. one- at Dahlonega, Ga., and oue at New Orleans, the first two to fce for coin only. The dies for the Mrst; coinage of money in this coun try were made by a Massachusetts .mechanic, in 1952, and the money was coined by John Hull, on whose estate" the Mint Hawse" stood, and Robert Sanderson of Boston.

Thousands-of baso deceivers aro hung every night on the back of chairs. Goethe:: "Unlimited activity of whatever kind must at last end in bankruptcy." "He's a polished gentleman," said she,-gazing fondly at the bald head whioh showeth her handiwork. The emtiness of all things, from politics to pastimes, is never so strik king to- us a3 when we fail in them. Why is the opening of the fall campaign like a fashionable woman? Bacause there's a great bustle about it. A nurse in a Chicago hospital is to be ousted for "talking religion" to patients and thereby "annoying them." Bishop Haven naively confesses to the restorative effect of a glass of beer, which he quaffed down South. Gilbert! A church entertainment in Cali fornia rum punch was smuggled in as in cold tea. The desire for tea be came great. After the rains look out for really good green corn, the best way to eat which is like playing on a ilute. N. Y. Herald.

It will be "reel" fun to see them run with striped hose. A newsboy says of the the new star spangled handkerchiefs : " If any man aims a blow at tho American flag, spot him on the snoot.." Poultry for Farmers. It has generalfy been believed by farmers, and the belief is still preva lent, that it is ridiculous to try to make poultry pay such enormous profits as are claimed for them. They laugh at the idea of 200 per cent, profit, yet even more than that can be obtained by poultry breeding. It would, no doubt, be preposterous to say so unless proof endorsed the statement ; but facts substantiate it, and some of the largest and best breeders of this country show, year after year, that these present results can be obtained. What would some of our farmers say if they were told that poultry pay as much as 500 per cent.? The French have reached to a greater knowledge of successful poultry raising than any other na tion, and they claim this immense profit, and there is not the slightest doubt but their large profit is no ex aggerated statement, but a reality. In this country it is known that poultry can be made to pay at least 200 per cent., and we dare say that even larger results may be obtained. Now, farmers, what do you say to this ? Is there not some inducement to pay greater attention to this hith erto comparatively neglected branch of rural industry ? We are confident you can realize more profit from poultry raising, provided you attend to them properly, than from any thing else on your farm. Be wise, and begin this winter by getting rid of your mongrels, and commence with some really good birds. Amer ican Fanciers' Gazette. A Sudden Repentance. Yesterday forenoon a farmer en tered a restaurant onGriswold street, hat on the back of his head and a joyful look in his eyes, and flinging his hat on the floor he exclaimed: "Whoop! Sold my wool, and now I want a Thanksgiving dinner!" He was invited to sit down to a ta ble, handed a bill of fare, and asked to name his dishes. "I want chicken, turkey, oysters, fish, quail, snipe, pie, cake, soup, wine bring on the best you've got in the shanty!" he said as he pushed the bill away. The waiter started out, and the farmer hauled ont his wallet and counted his money. His face grew serious after a moment, as he began to realize that luxuries cost money, and in another minute he pounded on the table and called out; "I want to see that waiter!" The waiter entered and tho farmer continued: "lou hold on a little, lou mav scratch out that other orderjand bring me in some meat and'taters una bred I've sold my wool, as I said before; but I just happened to think that the corn crop may bust on me, and where'd quail on toast bo then!" Adventure of a Conductor. Conductor B i3 always polite to ladies. All conductors are nolite to lauies, particularly so when they are it- yonng ana handsome.
