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."

S. Lewis, of Sweet Home Valley,
Linn county, some time ago disepvered
a deposit Jof buhr stone on Bald Peter

ner, the muistono manufacturer of that

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

covery will be realized when it is known
that all buhr stones are now Imported
from other countries. Numerous sub

like legislation, and it cannot be origi
nated and perfected, except at home.

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.
