; ;' ; How it Works.
Democratic principles have - iMdkrous
wperatioa at times, for eitfcer the brethren
of the faith get the cart before tbe horse or
tnej don't understand life faith and smash
it all to pieces. For iastaoce; the city ol
Portland ordered property owners, near
the Oregon Ire Wcrs, to grade the street.
a6d a RefcnnRca'n proprietor had a lot of
Irishmen hired, to do the work for him.
whihe just opposite to him was an Irish
Democrat, who employed Chinese to do the
gtaoiug on Ms side, for he was a closer cal
xmlator than his Republican neighbor and
discovered that his countrymen charged
mora than Chinamen, and as he was a stone
ntnson an I earned good wages, he could
not, of cotfrse, afford to do the work with
his own hands.
It so happened that both parties com
menced work the same morning. The Re
publican's Irishmen had no sooner put in
appearance with pick and shovel in hand,
and commenced making the dirt fly, than
the Irishman's Chinamen also took position
and commenced excavating tbeir part of
the proposed grading. : ' Of coarse these
Celtic- gentleman were indignant beyond
measure at finding themselves so near a
working party of Chinese, and they imme
diately eent for the contractor who had
employed tbem, and demanded to know
why they were hired to work alongside of
Chinamen. Tbe contractor bad great dim
cutty la satisfying tbem, by assurances that
the Chinamen were not in bis employ, and
they reluctantly consented to go on with
their work.
The last we beard from tbe Bcene of la
bor, the grading was going on, but the
Irishmen, very naturally, thought it de
grading to them, having been taught by
the beat received Democratic authorities to
believe that labor is only honorable wbea
performed by white men. This is a fair
sample of the results of Democratic teach
ings, which are disastrous to the best inter
ests of the laboring classes, for we bear
that the contractor, to whom the job was
kt, and who had employed tbe Irishmen,
was so exasperated by the troublesome
conduct of his workmen, and contrasting
cfceir course with the quiet performance of
the CelestUls across the road, who kept at
work regardless of threats and cursings,
that he expressed his determination to let
white men hunt other work and employ
Chinamen on all his contracts hereafter.
Meeting, late' v, an old acquaintance, one
of the most prominent men in the State,
vho has been worthier for ten years past
With tbe Democratic party, and fired off
many a Wg-sun upeech ra its behalf, we
were surprised to hear him say be was no
longer a Democrat 5 for, he says he tsan't
ride the Chinese hobby and the "working
man's" humbug. Any theory that con.
demns cfceap labor is faulty and even dis
astrons, for it retards our best interests and
dilajs the prosperity and progress of Ore-
gin. Our sympathies, be it understood,
we with the white race ; but we believe
that race to be superior to any other, and
time, experience and history has proved
that the introduction of machinery, the
cheapening of labor and the introduction
of foreign laborers of a lower grade, has
stimulated and increased the exercise and
reward for skilled labor, and unless an
American is too low and slow and ignorant
to be able to rise above the level of Asiat
ic character and ability, be can use the la
bor thus cheapened and brought to bis door
as a step to climb into a more prosperous
condition and acquit e greater wealth. To
day only one of the woolen factories in
this valley are manufacturing cloth, and
that is the Oregon City mill, which we vis
ited last week and found in most prosper
ous circumstances. One of its officers, a
life-long Democrat, told us that the em
ployment of Chinese labor enabled them
to compete with all the world and the mill
owners were ; becoming thereby enriched,
lie pronounced Chinese labor In all re
spects a success. The other mills, now
idle, can only compete with it, and with im
ported woolen goods, by the same means,
and the question to be answered is this :
Shay our mills lie idle, our public works
remain unconstructed, our mines unworked,
our railroad never be built, or shall we
i the means offered, employ uninese la-
use
b4r
ir and .grow to be a great and prosperous
tatet Shall tbe farmer have cheap labor
,0 raise and save his crop when he wants
it! These questions deserve serious coa-
''.deration.
Eesources of Coos Comity.
I The counties along tbe sea coast have el-
I etnents of prosperity and extent of resour
V cea : that differ materially from the rest of
lOregon, and are neither fully known to or
Appreciated by the people of tbe interior
counties. A, recent conversation with a
gentleman of Coos county, puts ns in
Dossession of many important facts a ell
worth knowing and. understanding. That
county, consists, in the main, of a rough
mountain region, stretching down to tbe
very shores of the ocean, with a magnifi
cent harbor,; Coos Bay, that offers a wide
and successful field for men. of enterprise
as the whole region is thickly . wooded,
magnificent forests of firs, spruce and ce
dar , of , mammoth . growth, covering the
shores and the surroanding mountains.
On Coca- Bay them are three great lum
ber mills. Empire City fa situated seven
miles from the ocean bar, has four stores,
. manv hotels, and a population that will
poll over two hundred votes, many of the
bands employed nos uemg voters. xu
saw; mill of Mr. H. H. Luce , Is situated
bere, which can cut 15,000 feet of lumber
."a. - When running.' ; About seven
milee np the Bay is Marshfield, a place of
abeut equal business ana popiuauon wiw
Empire city, where Mr. John Pashbaker has
a iteaa tur imilV capable of jawing 30
000 feet of lumber per day. i Marshfield is

and vessels are coming and going continu
ally to and from these null, loading with
excellent lumber for the San Francisco
market-' " '
The coal -vela we have referred to ex
tends ' along the ridge, bordering the Bay,
nd generally'- convenient ' of access for
fourteen miles, and at present Is being
worked by Iwo companies.' "It Is supposed
that the raciffo Mail Sream.Sbip Company
has an interest in one of these, which some
Uuw ' since change.!' bands.? the" purchase
prW tefng . $125,000.' The coal la-good
quality sod. finds' ready sale in Saa Fran
thc ' Ves83s are"; constantly loading at
Ujjjiand departing -ft that market.
Some idea of the commerce of Coos Bay
may be gathered from the fact that, during
the month of October, twenty-five vessels
crossed the bar. Our informant I says
that when vessels were detained for awhile
by the storm, be saw eighteen vessels at
one time awaiting to take their departure.
We scarce ever bear of any accident met
with by vessels trading at Coos, and we
learn that Mr. Pushbaker and Mr.
Simpson, mill owners referred to above,
each have a strong, sea-going tug on the
bar, in readiness to tow vessels in or out,
as occasion demands. A small tug navi
gates the waters of the inner Bay, and runs
up the Isthmus Sloogb, only separated by
one and a half miles of lard from Coquille
river, which puts into the ocean thirty
miles below the Bay. There is a mill built
on the Coqu'ile, which is navigable for
small vessels that carry some lumber to
San Francisco, but there is a much larger
area of farming land on the Coquille than
on Coos river, and most of the supplies for
tbe use of the Coos Bay country are raised
on the Coquille, and find their way to mar
ket via the Isthmus Slough and one and a
half miles of land carriage. The popula-
lation of Coos county is abont 2.000 and is
steadily increasing. The business of the
Bay is permanent, becanse tbe resources
we have described are inexhaustible. The
forests are immense, covering the whole
Coast Range, and the shores of the ocean
are covered with a dense growth and the
trees are of the greatest size. The coal de
posit promises to mock the demands of cen
turies and the labors of thousands of work
men, and the resources of the coast region
can only be bounded or restricted by the
growth of the commerce of the Pacific.
A road is projected and will soon be
opened from Roseburg to Marshfield 62
miles aided by a grant of public lands.
It is said this can be made passable all the
year, and it must add greatly to tbe pros
perity of Southern Oregon by opening a
market for their products and cheapening
the cost of transportation of goods, which
is now done only at great expense.
and tbe success of the enterprise depends
entirely upon the disposition of our grain
raisers and snippers to loaa me vessels tn
may be sent hither. Capt. : Thomas is able
and ready to advance 50 cbWper bushel on
all wheat shipped by this lino and consign
ed to his bouse. As U is evident that we
depend on a foreign market ior a Bale of
our breadstuff, it stands to reason that by
shipping direct from the Columbia river,
we can save largely in shipping charges
and realize much more in the net receipts.
The Virginia Senate.
While the inhabitants of tbe Pacific slope
are going into hysterics over the status of
the freedmen on the other side of the conti
nentsome fearing that the " proud Cauca
sian " will suffer in the contest, and others,
perhaps, entertaining the same anxiety for
tbeir olored brethren those more directly
interested in the subject are quietly attend
lug to their own affairs, and letting each In
dividual find his own level.
Among the many instanees of this state
of affairs that may be found in the columns
of the Eastern Press, the subjoined eketch
of colored members of the Virginia Senate,
from the Richmond Journal, is not tbe least
interesting :
J. W. D. BLAXP.
Mr. Bland, of Prince Edward, who grad
uated in tbe Convention School, is by com
mon consent tbe spokesmen of the brethren.
He displays far more than average ability
speaks grammatically, and debates well; is
never disconcerted or at a loss for a proper
phrase. lie is bold enough to dispute points
and argue motions with the best of them.
So, too, be can draw a resolution with sin
gular perspicuity and point, and bis " Mr.
President" is as emphatic as any nttered on
the floor. In person Mr. Bland is comely,
skin dark, but not decidedly black ; face
well rounded, and when he speaks he shows
a fine row of teeth. He dresses well, und
looks altogether like one who was inwardly
content with, if not proud of, his lot. There
is no use of saying on which side J. W. D.
Bland votes.
J. W. LY0N3.
Dr. Lyons for he is a graduate, or,at least,
a practitioner of medicine is from York
county. He is a newcomer into the politi
cal field ; but as be hasn't spoken on any
subject yet, we have no means of judging
of bis oratorical powers, as compared with
those of his colleague, Mr. Bland. But of
his personal appearance we can Bay, can
didly, that eis most elegantly gotten up of
any of his biethren. Ilia dress is faultless.
In form be is an Apollo , in complexion, an
olive, very blight : eyes large and lustrous,
hair short, soft and silky. lie must be very
young certainly not over 22 or 23. A Re
publican. GEORGE TEAM01I,
of Norfolk county, was a member of the
Convention, where be was particularly noted
for his onslaughts upon tbe Conservative
newspapers of this city, the reporters of
whom used to maliciously fabricate plagues
for him. Thus, ' not unfrequently, Mr. Tea
moh would rite to a "personal explana
tion." with the obnoxious paper in bis hand,
which in the end would be demolished. Mr.
Teamoh is a shrewd politician, and a close
but not able debater. There is nothing
striking in his appearnce.
r JOHN KOBI.NSON
of Amelia, is a bright mulatto, nearly white,
face beardless, bead large, dress plain. lie
. seldom speaks, but usually conveys his sen
timent through his ballot
W. P. MOSELY,
of Goochland, is a large,, benevolent-looking
colored man ; welt developed head and
brow ; firm, large month, set around with
iron-gray whiskers. He is well educated,
' but makes no display of his intelligence.
Death of George Peabody.
Few men have ever been more successful,
in a business career, than was Mr. Peabody.
Ee built up a collossal fortune by untiring
, assiduity and a strict adherence to the most
honest and honorable cause. Having at
tained immense wealth, and as distinguished
renown in business as is ever accorded to
human effort, he turned the thoughts and
efforts of bis life to the God-like ta k of
preparing benefactions for his fellow men.
He has died in an honored old age, but his
works live after bun, and so carefully and ju
diciously was his benevolence exercised,
that when tbe monuments to the memory
of earth's past heroes shall have crumbled
into dust, the millions whom his wealth
shall be perpetuated to bless and enlighten,
shall ; rise up and call him blessed. His
wealth was well, bestowed to the lasting
benefit of two continents. '.Upon the soil
of his birth, New England, there are many
lasting mementoes of his affectionate re
membrance, but his greatest gift was to
, that region of . our country . which had
sinned and' suffered from civil war, and
whose wounds he sought to bind by furn-
. ishing the means of higher enlightenment.
His name deserves and : will receive the
honored mention of all ages. .
Shall we have Direct Trade. -
I Mr. A. S. Mercer, founder of the Pioneer

Ben. Holladay, Gen. A. L. Lovejoy, Gpo.
Wi-idler, editors and reporters of the city
press, and a half-dozen invited persons,
stepped aboard of tbe construction locomo
tive "James B. Stephens," at East Portland,
to take the first ride on the Oregon Central
Railroad. After a few moments delay the
constructing engineer, John F. Kidder,
turned on the steam and away we went.
The progress was necessarily slow, so as to
'feel the strength of the trestle-work and
bridges. Aftr passing over them It was a
ge leral remark how firm and solid every
thing was about the track. We steamed
away to the machine shops 2J miles away,
for tbe purpose of bringing back four plat
form cars to be used in carrying material
along the line from the landing. At the
the machine shops the party got off and
looked around while a section of track was
placed in connection with the main line.
Things are going on very lively at ihe
shops. Two cais of modern style and
finish, are nearly completed, to be placed
on the track, and capable of seating sixty
two passengers, each. Four more platform
cars will be soon finished, to l e nsed for
the same purpose as those now running.
We noticed a large force at work along the
road. L. A. Doherty, foreman of the track
layers, informs us that within 70 feet they
had four miles of rails already down. A
water tank, ten feet in diameter and seven
feet deep, is nearly done at the shops, with
a capacity for 4,000 or 5.000 gallons of
water, to supply the locomotive. Mr. Kid
der run the engine out and back, but, here
after, James Anderson will be the day, and
C. W. Tracy the night, engineer. Every
thing about the road seems constructed
with a view to stability and strength, as
well as to wear and tear. The event of
yesterday may well arouse tbe lethargy of
the community and wake up the entire
country through which this road passes.

Soothing Syrups.
We are in receipt of tbe California Medi
cal Gazette, for November, a quarto, which,
while devoted to medical science, contains
a great deal of matter of general interest
We extract the following which will no
(doubt interest as welas surprise many of
bur readers :
Some weeks since 1 was called to an
infant of six months old, who was in a
dying condition, apparently from the ef
fects of narcotic poison. It had taken no
medicine except this Soothing Syrup, of
wbicn it nad taken, witnin ten hours, two
doses of about one teaspoonful each. I
had the Syrup from which these doses were
given, analyzed by a skillful chemist.
There were 10 drachms of Soothing Syrup
in the vial and it yielded of morphine aud
other opium alkaloids, 1 14-100 grains,
very nearly one grain to the ounce .of Syrup.
This result astonished me. The printed di
rections for administering the medicine are
as follows : "For a child under one month
old, 6 to 10 drops, three months old, half
a teaspoonful three or four times a day
until tree from pain. In dysentery repeat
the above dose every two hours, until the
character cf the discharge is changed for
tbe better." There we have a dose of mor
phine - eqnal to 10 drops of laudanum, giv
en to a child of three months old every two
hours, and double the quantity to a child
oi six months old.
I have always discountenanced the use
of this preparation .as I did not know its
composition, and supposed it contained
some anodyne, bu I had no idea of its
deadly strength. It is a familiar fact that
childien are very susceptible to tbe influ
ence of opium, and four drops of lauda
num has been known to kill an infant of
nine months. -I think It important that this
analysis should be published, that the pro
fession, and through it. tbe public, may be
warned of the fearful effects of administer
ing this dangerous and popnlar nostrum.
The quantity used in tbe community . is
enormous, doubtless it has killed hundreds
of children, and would kill thousands, were
it not by beginning in very small doses
and gradually increasing, a tolerance of
tbe immediate poisonous effects is induced,
although the miserable little victims of
domestic drugging aie reduced to puny
and cachetic creatures, that are carried off
by the first disease fbat takes hold of tbem.
The specimen of Soothing Syrup ana
lyzed, was made by Curtis & Perkins, of
New York, who are tbe only manufacturers.
I have ascertained that there are abonf-one
hundred thousand two-ounce bottles of it
sold annually in this city, making two hun
dred thousand ounces of Mrs. Wlnslow's
Soothing Syrup, containing abodt one
hundred , ' and eighty thousand grains
of morphine, which are given annually to
the babies of this State. No wonder that
that one-third of them die before they reach
the aje of two years! - u.

A reporter of the N. A". Sim, visit
ing Father Hyacinthe, ha? asked him
in what respect his views differ from
those of the Catholic Church.
Father Hyacinthe My views are
embodied iu a letter I wrote to the
Superior of my Convent, which was
published at the time. The Catholic
Church is divided into two parties
the Ultramontane, or standstill party,
and the party of progress both in re
ligious and political thought. To the
latter wing Monsieur Montelambert
s now attached, though he was for
merly on the opposite side. Its ideas
were also held by the Abbe Lacor
daire, previous to his decease. I had
been in the habit of leaving every
Sunday the Carmelite Convent in
which I was a monk, to preach in the
Church of Notre Dame de Paris. In
my sermons I leaned toward liberty
of conscience in all religious matters,
and dttacked the spirit which, in the
past days' gave birth to the inquisi
tion. I consider I'rostestants to be
Christians. They had been baptised
as encli, and their doctrines were
Christian. The Superior of my Con
vent objected to this freedom, and per
petually took nietotask. This an
noyed me. I felt myself perpetually
reized by the throat and tagged.
The anger of my Superior was still
further roused by my attendance at
the Peace Congress in I5aris, where I
delivered an address. The harm of
advocatitig peace I could not see, but
as universal peace was in contradis
tinction to the past practice of Christ
endom, probably that was the reason
of my reprehension. Wearied at
last by perpetual and unreasonable
restraint, I threw aside my robas and
quitted the convent. My Superior
wrote me to return within ten days
or consider myself virtually excom
municated, although the Pope s ana
themas might not yet have been pro
mulgated. I replied by taking im
mediate passage for America.
During the month of May I receiv
ed an order to wait upon the Pope and
explain my position. I did so. The
Pope was polite and cordial, and ex
pressed himself satisfied with my ex
planation. Notwithstanding this,
the Superior and his ultramontane
coadjutors continued their attacks.
Reporter Yon will resume preach
inr on your return, will you not 1
Father llyacintbe-That will depend
much on the spirit displayed by the
Ecumenical Council, if they show
themselves m keeping with the tenden
cies of the age, I will do so. If they
wrap themselves iu the narrow robes
of the past, I shall be unwilling to
preach their doctrines.
Reporter You doubt the Pope's
infallibility, do you not?
Father Hyacinthe I do ; but as
you are doubtless aware, the infabili
ty of the Pope is not a dogma of the
Catholic Church, it is simply an opin
ion. I am a Catholic, and I hold all
the dogmas of the Church.
Reporter What is your opinion
regarding the honor awarded to the
Virgin
Father Hyacinthe I honor the
Virgin, as do all Catholics, as the
mother of God ; but I disapprove of
the excessive attention given to her
by many, which exceeds that accor
ded to Christ, who id God himself. I
also object to the great reverence
often shown to the Pope, which bor
ders on worship.
Reporter You do not at all then
countenance tbe widely sprCad doc
trine that Christ was simply a man,
and begotten like other men ?
Father llyacinthe No. I believe
his birth was miraculous, as stated by
the Evangelists.
Reporter You accept, also, the
late dogma of the Church regarding
the exception of the Virgin from the
curse of original sin ?
Father llyacinthe Yes ; that dog
ma incalculates that the Virgin was
begotten as arc all children, and like
them, born in sin, but, as being the
intended mother of Christ she was
exeirpted from original fin by the es
pecial grace of God.
Reporter Have you ever expres
sed yourself upon the marriage of the
Catholic clergy, now allowed by
Italian laws ?
Answer No ; it is a subject I
have not touched.
Reporter You would prefer not
giving an opinion up ou it ?
Answer(with a smile) Yes.
Reporter You are acquainted
with Father Hecker, I believe ?
Father Hyacinthe I knew him
in Euiope. He amused me once.
He said I should not, with my ideas,
have entered so strict an order as the
Carmelite. It was like putting new
wine into old bottles. (At this Fath
er Hyacinthe laighed, considering it
an excellent joke.)
A clergyman, in tho county of Dur
ham had taught an old man in his
parish to read, and had found him
an apt pupil. After the lessons were
finished, he had not been able to call
at the cottage for some time, and when
he did call he only found the wife at
home. .'How's John V 'He's canny,
sir,' said the wife. How does ho get
on with his reading? 'Nicely, eir.'
Ah, I suppose he'll read his Bible

An elderly gentlemen, accustomed
to 'indulge,' entered the room of a
certain tavern, where eat a grave
Friend by the fire. Lifting a pair of
green spectacles upon b,is forehead,
rubbing his inflamed eyes, and call
ing for hot brandy and water, he com
plained to the Friend that 'his eyes
were getting weaker, and that even
spectacles did'nt seem to do them any
good.' 'Ill tell thee, friend,' said
the Quaker, 'what I think. If thee
were to wear thy spectacles over thy
mouth for a few months, thy eyes
would get well again.'
A Spanish Driest, once exhorting
the soldiers to fight like lions, in the
ardor of his enthusiasm; "Reflect.my
children, that whosoever falls to-day.
supa to-night in Paradise.'' ' Loud ap
plause followed the sentiment. The
fight began; the ranks wavered, and
the priest took to his heels, when a sol
dier, stopping "him, reproachfully re
ferred to the promised supper in Par
adise. "True, my son," said the .priest,
"but I never take supper."
The great 200 mile race near San Fran
cisco, came off on Sunday. Oct. 31st. at tbe
Buy View Park. The riders for the cham
pionship were Wm. Walsh and Neil Mow
ray, each had twenty horses, and the stakes
$1,000, besides a gold medal were for the
one who could make the whole distance in
the quickest time, including stoppages.
The contest commenced at 9 in the morning
and very closely contested all the way
through. When Walsh had accomplished
111) miles. Mowray was two a half lengths
behind, and at 170 miles the riders were
together. Wiftlsh had a fall on tbe 130th
mile, and also on tbe 197th, when bis horse
rolled over bim. four of his horses became
unmanageable and thus tbe stock was re
duced to sixteeu, so that be could tako his
defeat by only one minute aud fifteen sec
onds with a very good grace. Mowray
made the distance in 8 hours 58 minuted
and 4.) seconds. The only refreshment
taken by either party- was dn occasional
sip of cold tea and a raw egg. The stock
bad only been in training, a short time,
they were of mixed breed, and altogether
the race is a very remarkable event among
sporting men and hoie fanciers.
A vnunir lady created a sensation on
