Although immigration to America lias fallen off bo materially in the last fair years, there are good reatons for believing that the lowest point has not yet been reached. Heretofore the causes mainly instrumental in bringing about the decline of immigration hare been the low state of the manufacturing in dustries, the consequent small demand for skilled labor, and the opposition that foreign powers throw in the way of emigrants. The last reason connts for comparatively little in times of peace, but when unusual emergencies arise, may be more formidable in pre venting the rash to oar shores than any other consideration. Henceforth we shall have to struggle against the dis inclination of every European Govern ment to let its able-bodied men leave their native country. Germany, we be lieve, is thus far the only country which lias manifested any objection at being deprived of her citizens, but while all are 'arming and mobilizing troops, every effort will be made to put men into the army who might otherwise come to America. Patriotic feelings are appal d to, the defense and glory of the Fatherland are held up before the eyes of the peasants, and since most men "would rather serve their country in its armies than expatriate themselves for ever, it will not be wonderful if the fig ures of emigration from the continent and England to America are this year, and so long as the war continues, not more than a half or a third of what they were in 1876. This is a rather bine outlook for Ore gon, which wants all the immigration that all the ships in Christendom can carry, but when we consider that very little of our immigration is directly from foreign countries (China, alas! ex cepted) the rapidity of our influx of settlers may feel no apparent decrease. The immigration to Oregon comes chiefly from within our own national borders. From those dissatisfied witk the North-west on account of the sever ity of the winters; from those who have experienced the gras-j-hopper plague in Kansas or Nebraska, and latterly from those in California, who have lost their cattle and crops by the prolonged drouth. The war in Europe may indi rectly affect our increasing population, but we seriously doubt it. Another bright view that Oregonians may take of this seeming obstacle to our ever llling all our rich valleys with farmers and busy towns is the fact that at the close of the war the chances are many in our favor that a perfect hegira will take place from the old world to she new, of which, of course, we will get our due proportion. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers, particularly in Germany and England, will be disband ed and thrown ont of employment, and the cessation in active demand for the supplies so liberally used and destroyed during the war will deprive thousands more of any means of subsistence. When these times come, then we may look for immigrants to flock to our shores, eager to work mt any employ ment, others anxious to pnrcbase small farms. It will be the Golden Age for Oregon, because stalwart men, accus tomed all their lives to hard labor, will And that they can accomplish little for their own support in Europe and the big cities of the Atlantic coast, and will be eager to cast their lots with us among our fertile prairies and fir forests. The temporary cessation, therefore of foreign immigration need not necessarily be considered a bad Bigs. It is one of the inevitables, and though it is doubtful whether it will actually lessen our pres ent Oregon immigration, the country at large must be reconciled to suffer; but "when the cruel war is over" we will be mere than compensated for our lack this year of increase over other years, by the vast throngs who will strike out for this rich State., ready to fell timber, sow wheat and build homes. In a word, the foreign war will not decrease the present immigration to Oregon, which is confined to Americans, but at its close will add greatly to the nnmber of those seeking homes among us. Morton Alright. Morton's letter respecting the Presi dent's course in Southern affairs has created no little excitement among lead ing 'men of both parties. His state ments are clear, apparently true, and from an unprejudiced stand. He paints the Southern picture in all its black sess, bnt at. the same time honestly commends President Hayes for his ( peace policy; in fact says that if the Democrats only act in good faith re specting their promised course in the South President Hayes' "system will not be a failure but a grand success ex torted from his enemies." This letter from the "mighty Morton" sets him aright with the people, and notwith standing the slurs and flings at the old Indiana statesman, about his love of "rebel gore," he has over his own sig nature denied the base imputations, and toas written himself down with the majority, on the side of peace and brotherly love. Wade Hampton Wen dell Phillips, Oregonian & Co, you will please reserve your seats in the back row, for the cushioned chairs are onlv for men of conciliatory dispositions. lne Ueneral Association of Congre gational Churches for Oregon ami Washington Territory, will meet at Se attle, W. T., on Thursday, June 2lst. 'i The President Independent. President Hayes has one decided ad vantage over the malcontents of his party, which they will do well to take into serious consideration. He is com pletely independent of them. He is not a candidate for a second terra. They can try to make his administration un comfortable, but they cannot drive him from the place he holds, and he does not want to hold it again. He is there fore beyond the reach of that powerful club which has been shaken over the heads of so many Presidents, and com pelled not a few of them to bow to the commands of the party wire pullers. Fully one-half of the misgovernment and political demoralization which have cursed the country in later years is di rectly traceable to the morbid ambition of every Presidont to be his own suc cessor. We are not without hope that at no very distant day the people will recognize their source and demand a constitutional amendment which, by making second terms impossible, will strike at the root of a very dangerous disease. Meanwhile the nation should congrat ulate itself upon having a President who has pledged himself to be satisfied with four years. Hayes is his own master; not the slave of political sharp ers. The most they can do is tS annoy and embarrass him, end even should they succeed in crippling his adminis tration, pnblic opinion will put the blame on them, where it belongs. So long as he does right he has nothing to fear from his enemies. The people will be his friends, and reward him accord ing to his deserts. Were he baiting his hook for a second term the probabilities are that he would never have ventured upon the conservative policy, or if he had taken a step or two in that direction would have been compelled to retreat. But standing as he does, he has "every thing to gain and nothing to lose" by carrying out that policy. Its results are certain to be beneficial not only to tLe South, but to the whole country, and lie will obtain the credit of them. Selfish Policy. If there is one thing more than an other that we have "ding-donged" into the ears of the Oregon City people, it is their "penny wise and pound foolish" policy of making all they can and never spending anything in enterprises, and their "dog-in-the-manger" way of hold ing to their property, which they will not improve, and refusing to sell it to those who will. The following, from the Walla Walla Statesman, is a home thrust, and let those whom the cap fits wear it: When men come hero with means and propose to engage in business, encour age them in all possible ways. If they desire a lot for building purposes, sell it to them at a reasonable rate. If tbey wish to establish a manufacturing en terprise, and require water power, don't ask them three times as much as the privilege is worth. If you do the chance is they will seek some other locality, and leave you with unproductive prop erty on your hands. Owing to want of foresight the woolen mills were driven to Dayton, and in the end have been the means of building up a formidable rival to Walla Walla. The originators of that enterprise desired o locate here, but finding that water could only be had at an fiiormons outlay, they accept ed the donation of a millsite from Jesse Day, and built their factory at a town that then only had .an wxistence on pa per. The surest way to build up a town is to deal liberally with strangers. In the early settlement of the Northwest coast, Oregon City had the lead and promised to be the chief town in the country. Holders of town lots taking advantage of this, held their property at extravagant figures. The result was the location of a town named Portland, and Oregon City speculators were left out in the cold. Like begets like, and if a selfish policy killed Oregon City, it mav prove injurious to other towns. "Welcome the stranger within your gates, is an old lujunction, the wisdom of which is just as apparent now as when first nttered. Let us welcome new comers, aid them in securing loca tions, and In all suitable ways make them feel that we are joined with them in the bonds of a common humanity. Alexander the Great not he of the gordian knot who boo-hooed for other worlds to conquer, but of the Eugene City Guard thinks we ate floundering in a morass of ignorance concerning the effect of the President's policy on the different parties, and labors to inform us that Hayes conciliatory course, while it enstranges the hot-head Radicals from the fold, in no wise wins Democratic Iambs from consorting with the black sheep of Bourbonisni. Our answer is in the shape of a question: Why, thent is Key in his Cabinet, and why are Democratic ex-Congressmen Leach, of North Carolina, Staples, of the judiciary committee of the Democratic Legisla ture of the "Tar State," and Saul Smith, the Democratic banker of Charlotte, frit-rally toward Hayes, and on the point of organizing an Administration party ? The shipment of horses from New York to Europe is becoming a feature of our trade hardly less marked than the shipments of dressed meats, and shows clearly that the true road to pros perity in this country is by developing the agricultural interests. Howlish wampo can now ship his caynse ponies to where they will hear the "trump of war" in place of the bluster of the Chi nook zephyrs, and where they will be ridden by whiskered Bashi-Bazouks and fierce Cossacks instead of the howling dervishes of the Umatilla reservation. Once again "it is an ill wind that blows no good." The peQple of Seattle have dug up another "relic of 1656" in the shape of a bomb-shell thrown by the Decatur in that year, in her brush with the Indians. New Parties. A party of sore heads, Noithern fire eaters and disappointed office seekers have held a meeting at Washington for the purpose of organizing a party in imical to President Hayes and his noble policy. We would recommend them to join forces with their old ene mies, the Bourbon Democracy, and by the meeting of such positive and nega tive poles electrify "the fraudulent President" into the depths of which they now are sole possessors. On the other band, the more liberal Demo crats, especially in North Carolina, are preparing to unite with those Republi cans who are favorable to "concord and fraternity" and form what is to be called an Administration party. Here we have the good elemants of each of the great parties arrayed against the bad th extremes and we believe it will not be necessary to call one from the dead to tell the majority of the people which of he two organizations to join. While we do not believe that parties of such character will become general and extended through all the States, still we incline to the opinion that organizations strongly akin to those we have mentioned will be found in cer tain particular sections, where the bitterness of rebel Democracy and the rage of disappointed Radicals will make their cause common against the people, and the people's President. Should parties of this character ever be formed in Oregon, the Enterprise will be on the side of the people, ever following "the ' golden mean" and against extremists. Can the War be Prolonged I Although there is but little doubt but that Russia will soundly thrash the haughty Turk, if only by superior num bers, yet we find by looking over a sta tistical work on the Czar's empire that whilo he has plenty of the bone, the sinews of war, in the shape of cash, are very deficient, and it would appear that if the Porte can only be able to prolong the war until Russia's credit shall have been exhausted ho w ill be able to sue for peace of a no very disgraceful kind. To give our readers an idea of Russia's status in the markets of the world, we condense a few items. The total value of grain and other raw materials exported from Russia in 1875 fell short of $2:30,000,000, showing a deficit against imports of over 50, 000,000. One third of her exports are from the Black Sea region, which is now blockaded. If in time of peace this was their condition, it will be much worse now that she has a war on her hands of which no one can tell the cost or magnitude. In 1874, of the trade carried on be tween Great Britain and Russia, only one eleventh of it was carried iu Rus sian vessels, which is a very poor show ing. Russia has only two ways of meeting war expenses; one, by the issue of irre deemable paper; the other, by a foreign loan. She cannot possibly raise more by taxation than is necessary to run her Government in time of peace. Her pa per is now in the vicinity of fifty per cent, below par, and we may well in quire if soon it will bo worth anything at all. So it can be seen that if Turkey is bankrupt, Russia's financial condition is by no means enviable, and where those pre requisites, ready funds and credit, are wanting, a prolonged war is BCarcely possible. The Burlington Hmckeye's view of the political situation is this: "Prosperity once more dawns upon the South, and the haughty son of chivalry sits upon a horse block nd basks in the inn, while he thinks what he would do with the money if he could get $15,000 fer the nigfter he never owned, but who now nearly owns him." The telegraph informs us that the Dnke of Edinburgh is on his way to the Mediterranean. He thinks it prob able that he may have to meet his brother-in law in battle, and, like Arto nins Ward, is willing to sacrifice all his wife's relations in England's cause. Immigration has already begnn to flow into Louisiana as a result of the quieting of the political troubles, and the newspapers of the State have begun to discuss the ways and means of en couraging settlers to go there. The Illinois Senate has passed a bill, almost unanimously, declaring that all the United States silver coin shall be legal tender in payment of all debts, pnblic and private, in that State after the 1st of July naxt. Ex-President Grant arrived in Eng land, on his European tour, on the 20th. He has been treated with distinguished, honor by the mayors and officers of the various cities through which he has passed. This is about as good a time as any to inquire of our people what they intend doing in the matter of erecting a new Court House ? Our columns will al ways have room for communications on this subject. Kittitas valley is about 20x30 miles in extent, the most of which is good agricultural land. It is within 30 miles of the Columbia river, nearly opposite Priest rapids, and 125 miles from Pnget Sound, and is the nearest valley to it east of the mountains. Salem Statesman ; One of the largest farms "over in Polk," the property of Gen. Nesmith, has for an item of the make-up of this year's crop, 800 acres in wheat.

COURTESY OF BANCROFT LIBRARY, UNIVERSITY CF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA. Telegraphic News. Eastern. New York, May 20. The Tribune a Washington special says: The President is pleased with Morton's letter. It was a fact to have undertaker, the support of Packard with the army would have been futile and its results disastrous. At the same time the President did not agree witn; Mort n as to the position and purposes of the Southern people. He did not share Morton's distrust of the Southern leaders, but the President declared that whatever may happen to the Sonth now the Republican party cannot be held responsible for it. The South is in the hands of Democrats and that party alone must be held responsi ble for the conduct ef public affairs. The President says he has always been a Republican, and is now, and that the Republican party was never more nec essary to the natior than it is to-day. That party, the President said, is good enough for him, and he intended to stand by it. The language of the Pres ident showed very clearly that he did not favor a new party organization as such, and he would not be iikely to give any such movement his aid. Our navy has received instructions to show Grant every attention, and facilitate his observations in hia trip abroad. The national workshops and a' mories will be closed on July 1st, as no appro priations' have been made for their con tinuance. The Department at Washington does not believe the sensational reports con cerning a ormon uprising. Foreign. New York, May 28. The Herald's correspondent with the Russian head quarters at Ploejesti, describes the de struction of the Turkish monitor on the Danube, and says: Four gunboats left Ibrail on the 25th, under the command of Lieut. Deubasoff. About two hours' steaming brought the Russian gunboats where the Turkish ironclads lay anchor ed in the stream, and without delay the signal to attack was given. Lieut. Deu basoff made an admirable disposition of his gunboats, and in the conduct of the action displayed great courage and sound judgment. Taking the lead in the advance he ran his own gunboat in between the Turkish ironclads without paying any heed to the heavy fire which the monitors opened on the approach ing gunboats. Selecting the largest of the monitors, Lient. Deubasoff ran his boat alongside and succeeded in explod ing a torpedo under her side, causing a bad lead, but not damaging her sulli ciently to disable her. This partial feature was, however, soon remedied by the gunboat Xenia, which had closely followed the Czarowitz, and approach ing the Turkish monitor succeeded in exploding under pressure a torpedo. This brilliant action did not occupy more than 20 minutes from the moment of giving the signal to attack till the withdrawal of the Russian gunboats. During the action the Turks kept up a constant fire upon the assailants, but the aim of the filibustered was so bad that not a single Russian was struck. The effect of the torpedo attack is likely to prove very demoralizing to tho Turk ish fleet in the Danube. It definitely settles the question of the value of the Turkish fleet in preventing the passage of tho Danube, and will probably in duce the Turkish ironclads to remove from the dangerous neighborhood of the Russian gunboals. Loxdox, May 20. The Times Vienna dispatch says that the representations made by this government in Constanti nople about the reopening of navigation of the Danube, at least as far as Girla, have produced their effect. The Turk ish commander, Ada Koleve, ban in formed the Danube Sto.wa Navigation Agency that their ships will be allowed to pass daily. Two Scotchmen named Duncan and Whiteaker, and two Kan Franciscans, intend putting up a salmon canuery on the Suislaw river. Krinrmbrr Tills.

Cancer has from time immemorial been a preat scourge to the human race, and i now becominir the greater. For many years i! has been held by t he medical profession, and pen crally believed by the people, that Cancvrr 1 incurable; that, once its roots take hold uia a victim, then? is no chance for n sulferer to escajx- a linperjnp and terribledeath ; a death surrounded by all that is distrust inj; and hor rible, not only to thr sufferer, but to his friends. Happily t his fell destroyer need no longer be feared. Dr. II. T. Bond, of Phi.H delphia, a well known physician, of lanre ex perience, has for four years devoted himself tothe special study and tn-atmcnt of Canc-r. and the result ot his experience is his dis covery f. r the radical cure" of Cancer, without the use of either knife, caustic or plasters, and without pain The majority of persons are greatly deceived in repard to the first svmptoms and appear ance of this most dreaded disease, considering it painful from the commencement. This i a sad mistake, carrvinp thousands to an un timely prave. - In most cases t here is little or no pain until the disease is far advanced. The only symptoms for manv months, and even for years, are occasionally astinpinc, dartinp. stabbinp, shoot imr, sniartiiip, itch inar, burninp, craw-Imp or creeplnp sensation, and some cases not anv or these. If a malady is prowinp worse instead of better, it is conclusive evidence it is of a malipnant character, and demands imme diate attention. If you have a branny scaly, warty appearance, wit h an occasional bn ak inp but of t hose tiHin 1 he face, lip or nose, or any other iortion of the skit), attended .with any of the above sym; toms, ot a sensation of a fly being on it.ofn hair t icklinp it, is c r tain evidence it is Cancer, and there should tie no delay in nsinp Dr. Bond's treatment. Life is too valuable to be tampered with. It. Bond's treatment consists of an "Anti dote" that is applied locally : this at once nr n-ststhe growth of the Cancer, and by chemi cal action neutralizes its malignity, render ing it. harmless and changing it. to a simi'l'J sore, which nature, assisted by constitutional remedies, soon heals (when the skin is un broken, ar.d t he Canc-r is a hard tumor, the Antidote does not make an oen sore, but re moves it. by absorption). In connection with the Antidote is used the Specific, taken in ternally. This tones up the general health, strengthens the patient, purifies the blood, and eliminates the poison from the system . Dr. Bond's Antidote contains neither caustic, nor imison, and can be applied to the most delicate tissues of the body without injury ami therefon is the only remedy that can bo used in internal l ancer, such as cancer of the stomach, cancer of the womb, etc. Dr. Bond's remedies, with full directions for successful treatment will be sent to any part of the world.
