'- . If there is svtldo in the affairs of men,
tbere it lao 1a the career of cities;
fend la th hiitoriet of both there are
golden opportunitiea that onlj need to be
improved to lead on to fortune. Port-
-; land haa grown alowly and aurely rich.
Her merchant came there poor, scarce
... on of them baring business capital, and
the greatest and proudest of her captal
iiti to-dayKwerw blessed with more ener
gy than wealth when they tied their for
tones to the town, bat planting them
selves where tbey could catch the stream
of trade, they sat down and le it pour
their lape fall of treasure, and the conse
quence Is that they lire in complacent
- to-day nponthe wealth which has
flowd in npon them.
Heretofore there has been bat one tide
in the affairs of that eity, wich has
grown richer than the Sjate, became it
has iacceufs.il leTiei i Ui upon both
the imports and exports of Oregon and
kept the State in vassalage to the town.
If wo werw to say Ut her citizens hare
displayed . roeaarkablo enterprise, we
would level a prodigious sarcasm at her
honest burghers, whoso highest aim and
most tmecesafal endeavors hare been to
restrain the ooesmeroe of onr State with
in such boads,thatthe city will remain in
- 'fall control. ' Every effort to maintain
,. direct trade with th East, which is pos
sible and proper, Portland has thwart
ed j any attempt to encourage cheap
. fares ad freights the has discouraged j
and when railroad eoamtinication -with
California was talked of, they denounced
it as a ridiclos and suicidal idea.
' It really seemed as if the. men who
ranked as prominent and influential cap
italists there, were afraid the State would
''develop faster than tbey could control it,
and dreaded, above all things, the com
mencement of any enterprise which was
tjeyond their reach and control. Perhaps
tbey were net to blame with being satis
fied with a heavy -commission on every
thing the country had for sale, or could
fford to bey. Tbey had a sure thing,
. nd were modest enough not to want more,
tot theirs has always been the lion's share.
Bat the people naturally long for some
haoge er growth that shall faror them,
they will : lavor all enterprises which
can develop Oregon, and they hail the
'coming of capital in any form, which can
wield thousand picks and level our
ways for coming railroads.'
..' The- "business managers" of Portland
have corraled an enterprise, and have got
' it on their hands. They strangled the
' .JJaat aide road for a while, determined it
abould enrich them, or Oregon should
" wait for Its accomplishment. They may
vow be squeezing the "West Side" enter
prise, determined to force out a golden
gg or kill it, and if that is their plan they
liad better stand wide and let the road
pass into other and legitimate hands, that
- stand ready to build railroads upon the
guaranty that one new can afford. It ia
certain that the investment of an amount
within the easy reach of Portland capital,
ean insure the speedy construction of the
West" Side road. Let them furnish the
money then, or .give up the project to
- those both able and willing.' The tide is
f flowing which leads on to fortune, and if
Portland will ride npon It, to be greater,
&& disarm opposition and rivalry, let her
rich taen develop the liberal enterprise
' necessary to insure permanent greatness.
" It Is not impossible to divert a great
nart of the trade of this country to some
other channel. Great influences will be
brought to hear in favor of Paget Sound
am a grand commercial point. A railroad
if U he built to Astoria. Portland don't
belies it, and considers the project a
pretty Joke, which will die out if let alone,
hut the road will be built ; the road to
-the Sound wilt be built ; tbe roads to the
Unrnboldt and to Sacramento- will be
biilt? the Northern Pacific road is al
ready building, and the question with
Portland to-day, if not how ,to speculate
j)on great enterprises, and on the State
t large, bat to nse her gains, which are
enormous, to aid and direct this develop
Bent, and make every enterprise redound
to htf own future greatness. Else they
may, -before long, fee siaging thai not
tHircksaic song, ''Boot Bog, or Die."
Change of Yenne.
The Chinese question hat become a
uhject ef discussion eisewhere than on
this coast, a act we hall with considera
Aa satisfaction, as the matter has a bear
ing more extended than oar own shores,
and must become a subject ef momentous
Interest through the whole nation, as
'.'everywhere the question of cheap labor
will be agitated od discussed opon the
atdvent of the Mongolians.
The matter ia being discussed in Con
gress, with a view to prevent the coolie
-trade, . and any system of immigration
fcased on contracts that claim the time of
the jmsalgranta for several years as the
price of passage, and leaves them liable to
to be hired oat tor thai, period to the high

If we are to have Chinese labor, !t
should be an independent form, the Immi

arrival, ty which their time and services
can be disposed of without their own
consent. " -
China resembles a hive ready to swarm,
pai tie superabundant population, which
crowds its immense territory, and if com
pelled to utilise even the mountain aides,
to supply the wants of teeming millions,
is looklsg abroad for other fields of labor,
ready to Improve every possible opportu
nity. It seems probable that within the
sect quarter of a century, the Chinese
avi'J stad their, way into every labor mar

this be fullyargued at the East as well
as here, and let the wants and necessi
ties of our people be fairly estimated, and
then if we can safely use and profit by
Asiatic labor, and the common welfare be
advanced by its introduction, so political
demagogaeism can exclude or forbid It.
If, on the contrary, it shall appear to ,be
demoralizing and injurious to the people,
their oninion will and mast be respected.
i now Strangers view Oregon.
"We met yesterday Vttb two intelligent
gentlemen from Iowa, who are making a
health trip through Oregon and Califor
nia, traveling at a leisurely pacerthroogh
both State Taking their own convey
ance at Los Angeles, several weeks ago,
they have journeyed through the length
of California and Oregon thns far, enter
ing at the south and working their way
gradually to the Columbia river, and the
rjcher counties of our State, which have
facilities for shipment of their products.
We were interested to learn what their
. opinion was of Oregon, more especially
as they were practical Western men, and
not mere Eastern tourists.
There is no question, of course,. as to
the productions of our soil, and tbe salu
brity of our climate, and the natural
scenery is unsurpassed in the world. Ooe
of these strangers had been troubled with
bronchial and throat complaints, while
the other was subject to neuralgia, ytt
neither had felt a symptom of those dis
eases since crossing the Sierra Nevada
mountains, two months ago, though trav
eling through our late rains. We are
rather mortified to have to record that
these gentlemen have been more impress
ed with the idea' that Oregoniana are an
indolent race and wanting energy, than
with the character of tbe country through
which, they were traveling. They re
marked that the rich fields were few and
far between, that'good farms are scarce,
and the greater part of tbe land seems to
be entirely uncultivated.
It would be folly to deny that Oregon
needs labor to develop 'and explain, its re
sources, and that we must have a differ
ent order or farming, and much greater
life and energy should be manifested in
every department. There-are good farm
ers and energetic men in our State, but
they form tbe exception, not the rule. It
may be that the lack of facilities for
transportation has mueh to do with the
inertness that pervades our agricultural
districts, while the high price of labor
prevents a greater development. We need
an efficient emigration to infuse new life.
Our lands should be divided into smaller
farms, and the introduction of cheap la
bor, that farmers could afford to employ,
would make every capable white man an
employer, and offer him the means to
1 thrive himself, and win for our State a
better reputation for vital energy and pro
ductive ability. . . '
' Filibuster Said on Guaymas.
Tbe latest filibuster, item concerns a
filibuster expedition fitted out two
months since from San Francisco, tbe
vessel being the steamer Forward, an old
British gun-boat, which cleared from
San Francisco two months since, under
the Salvador flag. One hundred and
fifty men nnder command of Col. Viscay
no were landed from' her at Guaynias and
took the authorities entirely by surprise.
, They took the Custom House and several
vessels, and commenced loading 5,000
mnikett of the Mexican Government,
levied on merchants for supplies and val
uable merchandise, and took $100,000
due the Custom House. 0 a the arrival
of Government troops from tbe interior

sels loaded with stolen goods, and took
some prisoners.- They were acting under

It ia probable that within a few years
; several new States will be admitted. Col
orado, Montana and Wyoming are filling
up with a permanent population, which
will be greatly increased with the con
struction of railroads to assist their de
velopment. New Mexico, also. Is acquir
ing a large white population, having
nearly as many at the present time "
Oregon, and many Indians besides. It is
thought this Territory will soon be ad
mitted as a State', bearing the honored
name' of Lincoln a same that should
justly be perpetuated and honored every
way. Tbe building of the Southern Pa
cific railway will add greatly to the pop
ulation and importance of New : Mexico,
and entitle it to early admission as a

Dbar Sib: The River and Harbor Ap
.propriation Bill . haa just passed the
.House. It appropriates jhirty-one thous
ands ($31,000) dollars tor the improve
ment of tbe Willamette river below Port
land. That amount will complete the
works according to the estimate of the
engineer. :
- ' Nearly every item of the estimate was
cut down by the Committee, bat I suc
ceeded, by strong representations in hav
ing the whole amount estimated for in
this case, retained. . V
The bill will no doubt pass the Senate,
and this work, so important to the State,
will be completed. As the entire Bill
was cat down more than half,.! consider

' Consolidation. The Central Pacific
Railway, which had its western terminus
at Sacramento, has consolidated with the
Western Pacific, which extends from Sac
ramento to Oakland, opposite San Fran-n
ciseo, and is to be extended to thai city.
This gives the Central Pacific a connec
ted lice from Ogden to tbe great western
metropolis. The consolidation was a
form merely, as the' Western Pacific be
longed to the same inviduajs who owned
the Central, ba it dispenses with sepai
ate accounts and doable organization, as
the whole is bow nnder the same and or
gsnization of the Central Pacific Railroad
Company. , - . '

Tbe Sao Francisco Subsidy Refused.
San Francisco was lately greatly ex
ercised over the proposition to vote a
subsidy of one million dollars "to the
Southern" Pacific Railroad Company, and
the question was submitted to a popular ,
voto a short While since, the first an
nouncement being that the proposition
was defeated by a few voles. A recount
was demanded and on the scond connt
a mjority of 64 was found," by some
menus, tor the subsidy, with many
charges of frauds on both sides. .j The
vote was very light, scarcely reaching
half the usual number, and considerable
excitement existed over the complicated
question. It would undoubtedly have
found its way into the Courts and so
have been a source of interminiable
trouble; but the Railroad Company very
sensibly declines to . touch the subsidy
under such dubious ' circumstances,
which leaves tbe matter entirely unde-
cided. , : , ' - ' - -r --.

Rickbiil, Oregon, June 28, 1870.
Esrroa Statesman : - - ' ,
Now that' the election is over, we feel
greatly . rejoiced not over, our defeat,
but that we have the oft reiterated prom
ise of the Democracy, to console us, that
the fees of all the county officials shall
be immediately reduced, and. that taxes
will be cut down at least one half. . We
confidently expect that the national debt
wil be ''equitably adjusted'' by the next
Legislature. If such should not prove to
be the case, a great many of the "chivs"
will hardly march to tbe polls at the rate
of $T50 per head, and cast their ballot
for me'country and me God" in 1872.-1
One thing is 'clear to every individual
who reads the papers, that is, that Dem
ocracy is now ori its last legs in this State,
and that in 1872 we will roll up at least
1000 majority. It was only by dint of
un parallelled bribery and corruption that
the faithful were made to maintain a
steady front in this campaign, and unless
the Democracy introduce resolutions in
their platforms in 1872, in favor of seces
sion, slavery and repudiation, the faithful
will not support them, as a great many
were highly disgus'.ed with tbe milk-and-water
style of the late platform. ' -
The annual meeting of the Christian
Brotherhood has just closed, and it re
sulted in a vast amount of good. ' Some
39 were baptised, and united otherwise ;
good order was maintained throughout,
with one or two exceptions, the excep
tions' amounting to only momentary dis
turbance. The committee wish it gener
ally understood that there will be a "bas
ket" meeting on their grounds in August
next, the exact time to be stated here
after. : . ... ' ; " - -
Tbe rain b have done incalculable good
to late sown grain, and everything bids
fair now for abundant yield of oats and
wheat in this county. 7
A youug man, we think hailing from
Marion county, was most terribly fright
ened during the meeting, at this place.
The pangs -of hunger seem to have been
gnawing at his vitals just as he espied a
splendid cherry orchard, said orchard
was enclosed by an Osage orange fence,
there being only ene place through which
a mau could enter, and in the gap tbe
proprietor of the orchard1 had placed a
wire', attached to the trigger of a blun
derbuss, said blunderbuss; being loaded
with about one-half pound of powder
and eight or ten news papers. The young
man rushed boldly against the wire when
bis sense of bearing was greeted with a
report, which some took for cannon firing
in Salem. His horse was frightened and
ran off, and his master, at last accounts,
was talcing leg bail after him. . Dixit.

following graphic passage is from the dew
scription of a scene witnessed by a Mr.
Cambell and his party, in the ' north: of
Norway, from a cliff one , thousand feet
above the level of tbe sea : ; "The , ocean
stretched away in silent vastness , at our
feet ; the sound of its waves scarcely
reached our airy lookout ; away in the
north, the huge old Son bang low along
the horizon, like the slow beat of thepen
dilum in the tall clock of our grandfath
er's parlor corner.. We all stood silent,
looking at our watches. When both
bands came together at twelve, midnight,
the (ufl round orb hung . triumphantly
above the waves a bridge of gold run
ning due north spanned the water be
tween us and him. There he shone in si
lent mjesty, which knew'no setting We
involuntarily took off our hats j no word
was said. Combine, if yon can, the most
brilliant sunrise and sunset yon ever" saw,
and its beauties will pale , before the gor
geous coloring which now Jit up the
ocean heaven and mountain, i In half ah
hour the Bun had swung up perceptibly
on his beat, the colors changed to those
of morning," fresh, breeze rippled over
the flood, one songester after, another
piped up in the grove behind as we had
slid into another day."

with all the best and speediest methods of
raising chickens, from raising them off a
roost by burning lucifer matches under
their noses, down to lifting them off -a
fence on a frosty night by insinuating
the end of ' warm board under their
heels. By the time I was twenty years
old,) T really Suppose I bad raited more
poultry than any one individual in all

chickens came to kuow my talent by. and

paw the earth for worms, and old roost

The California Trade.
Business via Cape Horn to California is
very quiet. It is thought the present
summer will prove tbe dullest ever expe
rienced since the California trade com
menced. There are too many lines of
sailing vessels for the present trade. Tbe
ateaiuer of the 22d took 300 tons to Cali
fornia at average rates, but freights rule
low. Overland freights are more active
9 rates are reduced, but tbey are still
above steamer rates, and the latter do a
good business.
K uteri Ularkcta.
There is little disposition for specula
tion at the East, business is generally re
stricted to immediate trade requirements.

Btrack by lightning, and another tank be
longing to the Citizen's " Refinery was

ironi tbe Uepublic ot Colombia is im

Government to propose an alliance with
Republics of Spanish America, the ob

and aid Cuba. -The resolution passed

- Domestic Li&b In.Japan. M.Humbert,
the Swiss Minister at Yeddo, has just
published some amusing: details of tbe
domestic life of the Japanese. : In Japan
marriage is the universal habit. . Almost
the only exceptions are to be found in the
case of certain monastic orders, and
among the ladies iu attendance upon the
Empress. Men marry at about twenty
and women at about fifteen years of age,
but, except in the Budhist sects, the act
is marked by no religious ceremony.
Among the presents displayed is always
to be seen a double lipped vase. At a
(riven momcint one of the bridesmaids ad
vances, fills it with 'Baki," and presents
it alternately to the bridegroom aud bride
until tbe goblet is emptied. Under this
symbol the idea is conveyed that together
tbe husband and wife must drink the cup
of coBjugal life to the dregs whether
filled with embrosea or gall. Ihe moth
ers have greater authority over their
children than their fathers, and tbe rights
of women are so far recognised in the
country that a woman has wielded tbe
scepter of the Mikados. But to return
to tbe home life. The law of the coun
try insists that each shall be exposed to
the air without clothes and with its head
shaved, and in spite of both rain and
sun. During infancy the child's ordinary
playmates are a fat, short legged dog and
a falter tailless cat. Instruction is never
forced upon either parents or children.;
it is supposed to recommend itself natur
ally by its own intrinsic merits, aad every
man and woman throughout the Empire
is able to read, write and cipher. Tbe
thirteenth day after birth every citizen
received bis name ; on attaining his ma
jority he takes bis second, a third at mar
riage, a fourth on being' invested with a
public function, which be changes on at
taining each higher gride, and to on to
the name given him after death. The
last is engraved on bis tomb and be is
known by it by all succeeding genera
tions. . 1 ,
Bbbcbeb and Taylor. In a late num
ber of the Chrittian Union Henry Ward
Beecher gives a delightful picture of the
friendship between his father and-Nathan
Taylor : - : :
The globe and tbe universe, 1 to their
thinking, bung upon distinctions Goer
than the spider's finest film. ' We see
them now, in the old Litchfield sitting
room, come home from some meeting, sit
ting down around tbe fire, and, after a
little family, chat, begin to edge toward
the discussion that had broken' off at
their last meeting. "They lay down their
positions cautiously,' like two knights
riding around each other, In survey, be
fore the real struggle begun. Soon they
went at it. They grew earnest. They
stopped each other. ' Now one seems
pushing the other with an irresistible an
alogy ; but in a little time 'some lucky
turn gave back tbe advantage, and all tbe
lost ground was regained ajfain and
some steps beside. Some explosion of
wit would set them both into a roar of
laughter, and refresh them for the next
wrestle. Tbe hours flew on. It ws
eleven o'clock, in a town where folks
went to bed at bine ; it was midnight ; it
was one o'clock ; and back and fourth
the argaments flew, sometimes while
tbey walked up and down with their arms
over each others' shoulders,' sometimes
Beecher sitting on Taylor's knee, some
times Bitting face to face, arma going in
gestures, the forefinger pointing out the
line of the argumelt. At length ' a tall
and pale form at tbe head of the stairs
calls out, 'Father ! father ! Do you know
what time It is V 'Well, Taylor, atfck a
pia there," and well go on to-morrow."
A traveler who had' "crossed the At
lantic tells a story of a storm, when the
rain ponred down ia such torrents the
ocean rose ten inches. "There's no mis
take,,', said he j "besides . the captain
kept mark oa the aide of the vessel." '
' John Bigelow excuses himself for go
ing to Europe by saying that in the North
River village, where he Iked the people
had no amusements save going to church
on Sundays and an occasional funeral a

The Ohio Democracy.
The Ohio Democracy have had state
convention, and passed a series of reso
lutions in which they eet forth all the
evil things that tbe party in power have
been guilty of since Abraham Lincoln
was elected President ' If it is consider
ab'y mixed as to what they do believe in,
it is quite clear from . their platform tbey
are opposed to pretty much everything
that has been going on in the country
for the last ten years. They denounce
tbe tariff, tbe internal reveuue system,
tbe income tax, the act passed to enforce
tbe Fifteenth Amendment, the national
banking system, and all tbe acts of the
present administration, generally and
singly. Like the fellow who was "in
favor of tbe Maine law but opposed to its
execution," tbe OhioJDemocrats believe
in the principles of the Declaration of Ic-
depedence, though they have never taken
any measure to carry them out, as any
body is aware of, but bave opposed
every measure of progress which tbe Re
publicans bave inaugurated. They at
tested their love of liberty by opposing
emancipation ; they favored universal
suffrage by attempting to withdraw tbe
consent of their State to tbe Fifteenth
Amendment ; they would pay the nation
al debt without a tariff and without tax
ation ; they would have plenty of money
but no banks, iu short, tbey are ready
to do any and all impossible things, if
tbe people will only take their Unsupport
ed word for it. Janetville (Wit.) Ga

Brooms. If a broom is occasionaly dipp
ed into boiling sods, the straws will in a
measure lose thir brittleuess and become
tough, and do less injury to a carpet. It
will also last much longer. Brooms wear
out carpets full as fast as the usual
tramping over tnein. before commenc
ing to sweep a carpet, dip the broom into
a pail ot water and strike it against some
object to shake off the drops. Repeat
this frequently while sweeping, and you
will raise little dust, and be surprised at
tbe quantity of dirt which will settle in
the bottom of tbe pail. It is well to strew
moistened sawdust, Indian meal, or tea
leaves on a ' carpet before sweeping.
Fine, moist salt is equally as good or
better, and gives the carpet a nice clean
look.
The work on the Lincoln monument
at Springfield, 111., is proKreesinz with
extreme rapidity, end will be completed,
so tar as tbe funds now in tbe Treasury

Lincoln statue and tbe United States coat
of arms. About $55,000 more will be
necesary for th group of war statuary
designed to be placed on tbe corners.
