Clackamas County.-The following is an extract from the account ot a Tele gram reporter's ramble through the West ern part of our county: "In spito of vauo rumors which have been for some time in active circulation in regard to the probable failure of crops, it is evident that the grain yield this year will be a fail average. Among the farmers whom we met on our trip," there exists no fear that the fruits of the harvest will not lte abundant to satisfv all pressing demands. The fruit yield is' bountiful : apple, iear and plum trees are actually lonMetl down with luscious fruit, which are so tempting as to make one's very mouth water in an ticipation of their 'demolition, At this Season of the year all hands aro busv.and the evidences of industry existing in grain fields evince that laziness is not by any means a characteristic of the granger. The past year has added much to the poj nlaliou and general improvement of Clackamas county : new houses and out buildings have sprung up in surprising numbers, immense clearing has been done, and the general appearance of tin; Country indicates increased prosperity and improvement. We heard the remark made by some one that Clackamas county, for variety, and excellence of production, i ahead f any other county in the State. We are of the opinion that the remark is true: the healthy fruit and grain on all sides attest the fact." Clean Cigars. Geo. Fuchs is manu facturing a No. 1 Havana cigar which he will sell at wholesale or retail. An account was given recently of a visit to the Chinese cigar manufactories in San Francisco, where the workmen were found to 13 alHieted with leprosy and other lilthy dis eases, and it is high time-people were find ing out where the cigars come from. Mr. Fuchs invites anyone interested to call and see his workmen engaged in the manufac ture of cigars, and see for themselves. , Hkcovkred. F. D.

Among the improvements this summer is a new railway depot, which is about com pleted and ready for occupation. It is sit uated directly across the track from the hotel and will be one of the most commo dious depots on the line. New machin ery is being placed in the saw mill, Mr. Kirkpatriek, of Portland, is doing the work: the machinery itself is from the Willamette Iron works, of Portland. A new house forty by eighty feet has been erected on the Dr. Keil place for an apple packing and cider pressing institution. The new llouring mill will .soon commenco running and it is the intention to make a superior brand of llotir for the Portland and Salem markets. Other improvements are in contemplation that will keep tiie members of this industrious colony busy as bees all winter. P.ocnd Oveii.-A. J.

Wheat is quoted at 77 78 cents per bushel at Salem. Wm. Braden has lyen appointed Street Commissioner at Portland. S, Cnmmius has been appointed postmaster at Tualatin, Washington county. The Insane Asylum is receiving nu merous accessions from various parts of the. State. - Mr. Bnsh has sold the Pioneer Oil Mills at Salem to Mr. Joseph Gray for 815,000. The grading on tho railroad from Dayton to Dallas is completed and the track ready for the rails. A man by the name of Cantrel is hording 1,000 head of Angora goats in the mountains west of Junction. J. W. Souther, druggist at Corvallis, has made an assignment for tho benelit of his creditors iu Portland. The Statesman fears that when the railroad is completed to Dallas a good deal of trade will be lost to Salem. Mr. Samuel Coulter and son, former ly of Olympia, have purchased the lease of the St. Charles Hotel at Portland. Gov. Chadick has appointed J. II. Knnzie, of Eastern Oregon, Assistant Adjutant General, to rank as Colonel of Militia. j The Statesman says that Gov. Chad wick has sent a special inesseuger to Gen. Brown with orders to withdraw from the field. Gov. Chad wick has a part of Egan's scalp. This ghastly souvenir was receiv ed by mail from Umatilla. It will do as a trophy for future generations. Geo. P. Dorriss, formerly of the Land Register and Lafayette Courier, has bought an interest in tho Salem St tesmmi. and the paper will hereafter be run by Odell & Dorriss. The large steam sawmill belonging to Boney & Co., located in Washington county, north of Glencoe, was entirely destroyed by tiro on tho night of July 2t)th. " A. II. Kobie, the well known stock man, died at Boise City a few days ago. His death was the vosult of over exer tion and excitement consequent upon the Indian war. The oil mills and exteusivo grounds at Salem, water franchise, etc., was bough by Mr. A. hash, for $10,900, subject to irortgago and unpaid inter est making the cost about $13,000. In Yamhill it is found that fhe men who are in need of employment, but will not work, eveu if the best oppor tunity is offered, are tho ones who are crying " Down with Chinese cheap labor." Jacob Meyer, of Jackson county, while hunting in the mountains recent ly, got loss and was out several days. A party was organized to hunt him up. Finally ho came in very badly used up. His dog meantime had starved to death. La Grande Gazette: Tho people of this valley have sold several thousand dollars' worth of cavalry horses to the government officers at LaGrande wfth in the last three weeks. We sold onr fine saddle horse to them for 150. In fact all sold at a good ligure. Portland and the Da'les wugon road is complete from the Dalles to one mile below the Lower Cascades, and wagon s and stock are traveling on it. Said road has cost an average of 01,000 per mile. Twenty-two miles more will complete the whole road from'Portland to the Dalles. Daring tho Indian excitement work on the Blue Mountain and Columbia Biver Bailroa 1 was necessalrly suspen ded. A few days ago, however, Baker t Cochran, the contractors, believing danger passed, started a number of teams and men oyer the Mountains to resume work. The Coos Bay 2Terr.t of last week has the following warning for the ladies: Mrs. Bogat t.Jwho came to this county on a visit accompanied by her daughter, returned to her homo in Illinois a short time since and found that her husband got a divorce, married and emigrated during her absence. The Mountain Sentinel says: J'Not a freight team Ins passed for over a month. The terrible fate of Smith, M3-ers. McLaughlin and McCoy, has had a blighting efieet on the freighting business on this ronte. Herein is one of onr heavy losses by the Indian war which canuot bo estimated in dollars and cents. The Lafayette Courier says that a cranberry marsh has been discovered iu Tillamook county. A road will be cut to it, when preparations will be made to ship the berries to market. This will b3 a big thing, as the patch covers many acres of ground and will yield thousands of gallons. S. Lewis, of Sweet Home Valley, Linn county, some time ago disepvered a deposit Jof buhr stone on Bald Peter mountain, a prominent landmark near tho valley, and having taken some of the stone out sent it to San Francisco for inspection. It was tested by Wag ner, the muistono manufacturer of that place, and he writes that it is fully equal to the French stones which he imports for use in his manufactory. Mr. Wagner is considerably interested in the discovery and immediately sent up word for 3,000 ponnds to be taken out so that he could manufacture a pair of stones from it and thus give it a bet ter test. This is now nearly ready for shipment. The importance of this dis covery will be realized when it is known that all buhr stones are now Imported from other countries. Numerous sub stitutes are fonnd in the United States, but all afe inferior to the French. We would suggest to the members of the Legislature that any legislation they wish to introduce, should be elaborated at home before the sitting. Tho rush and whirl of excitement is so great at the ca)ital that there is no time left for careful study, and formulation. Yon are button-holed and boned, dog ged and interrupted at every turn; and it is quite evident, under such circum stances, that you should prepare your bills and suggestions before going to the grand Paudemonium of the Capitol. We need a good deal of careful statesman like legislation, and it cannot be origi nated and perfected, except at home. The Chicago Tribune insists that a3 General Lee and Stonewall Jackson are dead, and as Jeff Davis is under certain disabilities, the best man for President of the United States would probably be General Joseph L Johnson. Credit ami Curreuey. For several days, says the San Fran cisco Chronicle, Ihe four per cent United States bonds have been floated at the rate of 1,500,000 aud over per day. These bonds are cf small denom inations, and tho presumption is that they are gcheiny taken by Americans as a safer investment than the savings banks offer. On the first of June, 1S77, tho total deposits in the savings banks of the country were 803,000,000. Since than frequent and atrocious failures of these institutions have shak en public confidence in iheru, and that is one of -the motives for investing in these UnitedStatcs tour percent bonds. The sales on the 25th instant reached the gratifying figure of 1,757,300. At this rate it will require less than sixty days to float 3100,000,000 of the new securities, which are becoming more pop'.ilar every day. These new bonds are taking the place of old 5 and 0 per cents to the amount of 8700,000.000. They run for thirty years, to ouiy i, jloi, unci iue interested 1"'ira i2'viic ?tm. and principal are payable in gold eoinTy rayrSil!M'v?l"Jiton The amount of SU2.000.000 had been h Hides-D: w?M2c ib A- t 1 1 -1 MOT -i ir - i noaiea on ino rsi oi juno tnis year. The exact amount sold since, we have not the means of stating. There is reason to believe, from the rapid and ready sales, that tho entire public debt funded could be refunded in this class of securities within three yeara, if au thority to do so could bo obtained. But unfortunately there aro of the live per cent securities 503,410,000 out standing and not redeemable till after May 1, 1SS1; and of the six per cents 205,000,000, not redeemable till after Juno SO, 1881. Tho four and a half per cents embrace 250,000,000, and are redeemable after Septemper 00, 1891. As the total funded debt is 31, 7GS.000.000 it is therefore only possible, till May 1881, to float 515,000,000 of these four per cent bonds. Theaunual interest on the entire debt as now funded is about 1)2,000,000, exclusive of railway subsidy bonds. At four per cent itnvould be onlv a little over 70,. 000,060, a savings of 22,000,000 a year, with the advantage of having it all in the hands of our own people. It is tho anxious hope of a good many outside of the ranks of that class known as the "Greenbackers," that Congress may at no distant time authorize a new bond of small denominations bear ing interest at 3.G5 per cent, ii.ferclinge ablo for currency at -the will of the holder. The argument in such suport of such legislation, aside from the sav ing in interest, is that it woii'J increase the volume of currency without danger of producing a depreciation; and that the present volume of currency 070, 000,000. greenbacks and National Bank notes included is not large enough to meet tho requirements of business. The population of tho United States may be asserted in round numbers at 45,000,000. A total circulation of bank notes and greenbacks of 070,000,000, gives less than 15 to each inhabitant. Tho total circulation of Eugland is' 8772,031,000; total population. yi.17, 000; total population, 31.817,000; or 21.28 per head. In France it is 35.02, in Germany 20.00 per head. The average of circulation per head in the three great nations of the Old Vorld is 28 50, aud but 15 in the United States. And yet, as is plausibly argued, the people of the United States, from their more general active business habits, should seem to require a greater amount of currency per cap ita than those of France, or Germany, or Euglaud. The diCieulty with us, is to secure the requisite s.mouut of cir culating medium without impairment or depreciation of its quality. An inter-convertible bond of small denomin ations, like the one above referred to, it is believed by many sound heads in and out of Congress, would meet the case about as well as auything yet pre sented. Secretary Sherman's vindication from the outrageous accusations made against him in the Potter resolution i3 as comple'e as was that of General Xoyes: and the only decent thing for the committeo now to do is frankly to report that tho cases are not proved. The outrage upon these two gentlemen is almost without parallel in legislative history, aud no ordinary treatment of this part of the investigation in the re port that will probably be made to Congress during the next session will satisfy fair minded people, Mr. Sher man's vindication in the report ought to be as complete as it is m the testi mony, Nothing short of that can the committee afford to give him. N. Y. Tribune. The most remarkable fiscal achieve ment ot this era is the one 311st an nouued at Washington, that our na tional securities have been returned in such numbers within a few years that very few now remain abroad! This is the result of tho favorable balance of trade and of the operation of the fund ing leans. Our foreign debt now con sists of State, local and corporate se curities.
