"Emtoti ENTEKruisE: As I have never seen any communication from this section of ClHckamas comity, I thought it imht not be amiss to drop you those ItiW Hues in regard to our community, and things gcnerallv. Ringo'a Point is a section of countrv lfear the Cascade range of mountains, bounded on the north by Clear creek, and on the South by Milk" creek, making a ridge between the" two streams for a dis tance of about fifteen miles, varying in width from rive to ten miles, comprising some of the best lands in the county. The soil is dry and rather course.of a dark red dish color, and a clav foundation, w ith few .stones and no gravel, making it without a doubt one of the linest fruit countries in the world, for all fruits with the exception of gratxs. It also produces a liner quality of fall wheat than any other section of Clackamas county. For proof I will state that M r. A. Stout informed me the other day that he raised last season from 3J acres 3d bushels per acre, and ;from acres he reajcd 2j0 bushels. Thero will be one fourth more grain raised in this section this season than at anv time previous, as there has l-een quite a strife to see who would have tho largest tract cleared. Mr. A. L. Uaty has grubbed cleared and plowed forty acres of heavy oak grubs, and has just finished seeding it to wheat, irom wmen no expects toreap forty bushels to the acre. Mr. li. Truiimsrer tout me to-uav that he has cleared 20 acres, and expects to finish seeding in a few days. Mr. Sam Carlile has cleared ana grub bed 20 acres of new land, and will finish seeding in a few days. He has done all of this work since the 1st of January. Mr. Likewise, a German who came from Wisconsin to this suction last June, bought a tract of land for which he paid four hun dred dollars. All of his neighbors said he had a bad bargain, and predicted that he com a not -j:ei in ten acres in ten years, in the last eight months lie has cleared forty acres, which is now sown to wheat and peas. He -has gon to the woods and is getting out timbers to build a line house. As ho is a good carpenter and can do the work himsclt'.we look for something nice. 3 1 is farm is now worth over a thousand dollars. Mr. tJ.

We clip the following correspondence from Damascus, Clackamas county, from the West Shore for March ; Not seeing anything in your journal from this section of the country", I will write a few words concerning it. Damas cus is situated in the northern part of Clackamas county, fifteen miles southeast of Portland, and nine miles northeast of Oregon City. The neighborhood takes its name from tho poslofiiee. it lxing tho first one on the mail route from Po: Hand to Silverton. As a place of residence Damas cus is esjiocially desira ble, being in one of the healthiest localities in the State, with as good society as can be found anywhere. Wc have, also, good school facilities; our district has 122 children of school age, W males and !2 females. School is kept open nine months in the year. We have meet ing every Sunday," and some Sundays twice. The M . E.'Clmrch, the Christian, and the free Methodists, are the principal religious denominations. Those looking for a home will do well to visit this part, before locating elsewhere, as thero are some locations to Lie had 011 reasonable terms. Tho laud is good and produces v eil. Rattle of the Absqua. There seems to lio considerable diversity of opinion as to whether there was a battle fought with the Indians on tho Abiqua in ISIS. Gen. Nesmith and ex-Goy. Curry claim that it never happened, while Messrs. Hunt, Minto and 1 Jeer, old pio neers, are positive tliat it did occur. e give an extract from the correspondence of Mr. Mitchell Whitlock, of Silverton, which is substantially the same as related by M r. Wm. Elliot, of Canemah. who par ticipated 111 the great battle: "I came to this j.art of the countrv m the year 1S43 and settled on Rutto creek.and lived there from that time to one year ago, and know whereof I speak. There was a battle tought on the Abiqua in the spring of lls, bet ween the whites and a band of Klamath Indians (t.ov.

The early part of last week a dashing young lady from East Portland took up her quarters at the Clill' House. She told the story of a cruel fath er, who had whipped her for going out riding with her lover, a barber of Portland named llowaid, and sh had run till the lover giving her money to pav her board, file young lady seemed perfectlvut home, And made sad havoc with the hearts of some of our j-oung men. East Thursday ' the i ortiand young nun, accompanied bv t hree friends,- all well Soaked with tangle footarrived in a carriage with the inten tion or currying oil" his ladv love. The young lady objected on account of his "pickled state," and would have nothing to do with him. The quartette made things nowi arounu me Hotel lor a while, but at last retired to a saloon to indulge in a little more of the Oh-be-jovful. The fair but faithless one donned "her best attire and went to see the Tennessee Jubilee troupe with an Oregon Citv leau. When they returned to the hotel, Howard met them on the steps and wanted that board money refunded, ami proceeded to catch the girl by the throat, and would have used her up, if Mr. A. G. White had not planted his fist behind said Howard's ear, causing him to throw up the sponge for a short time. But soon the united Portlanders returned to battle again, and raised the de'il for a while, but were at length per suaded to retire. They proceeded to the Jiarnum Saloon, where they raised anoth er row, and were about to be arrested, when they jumped into their carriage, which was standing at the door, and left town as fast as possible. The voting lady returned to her home at East Portland next morning. We are always glad to have Portland visitors, but hope they will be of a different character hereafter. Dbowxkd. J ust as we are going to press we receive the sad intelligence that Mr. Chas. Pope, who accompanied Ij. T. Harm on a fishing expedition up the Clackamas, was drowned yesterday afternoon. They had a boat hauled out to P.arin's place, where it was placed iu the river, and they stalled down the stream. Yesterday af ternoon, while coming down the raging stream, the boat struck a snag and sank. Hoth the men held on to the sui'g until chilled through, when thej- concluded to try and make the shore.

Decay of the Teeth Arises from various causes, but principally it may be attributed to early neglect or the in discriminate use of tooth powders and pastes, which give a momentary whiteness to the teeth while they corrode the enamel. The timely use of that delicate aromatic tooth wash, Fragrant SOZODOXT, will speedily ar rest the progress of decay, harden the gums, and impart a delightful fragrance to the breath. It removes those ravanes which peo ple sustain in their teeth from the use of sweet and acid articles. MA It Id ED.
