Last evening the ancient and honorable Masonic Or der celebrated its favorite anniversary, St. Johns evening, by the installation of officers elect, and by participating in splendid supper furbished at the Chemeketa Ho die. The exercises of m4 "Uallation were held in the parlors, uoi were attended by an audience com posed of the members of the Order and nch friends as were the fortunate re cipients of invitations, in which num ber we were happily counted. There was everything to make the occasion delightful, and though not posted as to the craft of Uaaourv, we recognised no vantage possessed by any Mason of them all when meeting where the game is decided by the knife and fork. How the Chemeketa can stand it to seat two hundred guests two evenings in succes sion, we doa't pretend to know, but as one of the guests we wouldn't mind playing the koif and fork game there every evening in tbe week.

Gee. Thomas ijc Battle. To him a battle was neither an earthquake nor a volcano, nor a chaos of brave men and frantic borae involved ia vast explos ions of gunpowder. It was ratber a calm., rational concentration of force asrainst force. It was a question of lines and positions ; ef weight of men tal and' strength of' batallions. He knew that tbe elements and forces which bring victory are not created on tbe battle field, bat most be patiently " elaborated in the quiet of the camp, by tbe perfect organisation and outfit of bis army. His remark to a captain of artillery, while inspecting a battery, is worth remembering, for it exhibits his theory of success: "Keep everything in order, for tbe fate of a battle may torn on a buckle or a linen pin." He understood tboroaghly the condition of bis army and iu equipment, ' that when tbe hoar of trial came, be knew how great a oressure it conld with stand, and bow bard a blow it could Strike.' Gen.

Tibe editor of the American Grocer states tbat be recently paid a visit to the Adams, Mass., and has obtained from . . .... tbe Chinese their method of cooking rice. The process of boiling oae pound of rice is as follows : Take a clean stew pa, with a close-fitting top, tbea take clean piece, of while aaualio, large enough to cover over the top of the pan and bang down inside nearly to, but not ia contact witn, tne bot tom. Into the sack so formed place tbe rice, pour over it two capfuls ot water, and put it on tbe top of the stew pan, so as to bold np tbe muslin bag inside, and fitting all round. Place tbe pan oa a slow fire, and the steam generated from the water will cook the rice. Each grain, it is stated, will come ont of tbe boiler as dry and distinct as if just taken from the hall. More water may be poured into tb pan if necessary, but only sufficient to aeep the steam till the nee ij cooked. -"Ibe pan muat not be heated so hot as to cause the steam to blow off the lid.

The Ilerald complains bitterly of the Presidents " pigbeadedness," and enu merates the wrongs he has committed against tbe country by tbe exercise of the quality aforesaid. Among these evil results, (and we are inclined to believe tbe most important in its esti mation), that paper includes the losses of our armies in the late war. Tbe paragraph reads as follows : " This prominent trait of his charac ter, cost America, in the late civil war, tens of thousands of valuable lives without aoy recompense whatever, each one of which was a thousand times more valuable than that of the man who caused their taking off." It is remarkable that our Democratic eotemporaries cannot yet reconcile themselves to the resnlts which fol lowed Grant's generalship .and paved tbe way for his election to tbe Presi dency. They preferred the masterly Inactivity of McC!ellan, because it remitted tbe South to remain in re bellies and gave tbe Democracy at the Verts, much solid comfort. So im pres'd were they with McClellan that i be j cbuse him for a candidate, and were terribly beaten in consequence. Os tbe contrary the Republicans rec ognised Grant's " pigbeadedness" in beating tbe rebel armies as a good in dication, and chose bim to lead them aTia)t Democracy ; with what success we beed not say, it is apart of history. Tbe ruaa wbo was obstinate and stabbom, and pigheaded enough to , t K i bmjuJ, must ever be a re- roach te Democracy, and we shall ex : pt taalignaal opposition and mis . representation to follow bim while j tbry bare power to invent. Prtsidet Grant decidedly orges the acquisition of San Domingo as desira ble and necessary, but he cannot ac quire it unless the Congress enacts that it shall be so. Congress has refused once, and may refuse again, for some of the Republican Senators are as " pigheaded" that way as Grant ia tbe other way. Now, this matter is not one of tbe greatest importance, and we are not iu favor of too much acquisi tion, not admiring tbe principle of be ing dissatisfied unless owning all tbe land adjoining os. As to Sun Domin go, and tbe President's bobby there abouts, we leave bim to worry it out with those who oppoee it, but as far m the President himselr, on tbe aver age, we feel decided respect for him, which increases exactly in proportion as envious and sle.nderous Democracy a'Sails bis acts and strives to defile bis character. Although be may errtje tasiotially, and even frequently, Still bis bead is generally level, and it only remains for bim to carry out with all b tH. obstinacy of common - of bis plans for national reform Li 1 down in tte late message to se ' e-ira tbe raipect and esteem of the j American people so thoroughly tbat ( they will re-nominate and re-elect bim aain President; which is what De mocracy dreadi, but what will surely happen. General News. WACHIIIttTON TKMKITOHY. Tbe Vancouver Register bas a good deal to say about railroal matters and land speculations. The report from Carlton is that the Northern Pacific Railroad Company have hired Carrol's barn for a lodg ment of tbe bauds to be working on the road, and have commenced to con struct a mett-bouse.

Tbe rush for claims in the lower part of Clarke and the tipper part of Cowliis remains unabated : our most prominent citizens are taking claims, hare wisely concluded if the Rsilrosd will not come to them, tbey will go to tbe Ra.'lroad. Owing to the river blocking np so suddenly, tbe order removing the 23d Infantry Band to Vancouver, is for tbe present inoperative.

What Robust Collyek Thinks or tbi Bible. I bold tbe Bible to be ot authority as a revelation of spiritual truth above all other books. 1 nnd In it many errors, many things tbat are not spiritual truth at all; mythical legend;, also, as yon say, and things that are simply infernal. Witn All these things I try to deal truthfully, to call tbem by tbeir right name frankly as 1 would II 1 louna mem in encyclopedia. Bat, besides tbis, I find In tbe Bible such religious truth as I find nowhere else; and tbis is bow I know it. Tbis truth comes borne to my own soul as no other ever does The life and light of it seizes and hold me as I am not held by tbat of any other written word. I bavtrjeen read ing tbe Bible now about forty years as acbild in tbe Sunday School, as a youth seeking knowledge, as en acolyt in tbe Metbodist Church, as rt Method ist local preacher, and nw these twelve years as what is called a free thinker. I eaa only say .this : Tbat to-day I feel the force of the Bible truth as I never did beforeL It is per fectly inexhaustible, full off nesh sur crises, and leads me captive w'ith a far more wonderinl mastersjood loan it ever did when I waseand 10 accept every word witbio Le lids of tbe Book as a thus saith ib Lord.'

Wnile Con gress is about the business of abolish ing come of these ornamental sinecure dices, wouldn't it be well enough to abolish the ten officers of rear admiral on the active list and tbt) half dozen others of tbe same grade on the retired ist. After tbat tbey might go after. gome scores of commodoreships, cap taincies and commandersbips, with good effect to tbe service and the people wqo are taxed to keep np this enormous list of bigh-grade offices in so small an aggregate of ships and men. There can surely be no other than pure ly ornamental use lor sixteen rear ad mirals (a rank unknown to tbe early days ot onr navy), twenty-five commo dores, fifty captains (we are taking bese figures from the Navy Register of 1869), eighty-nine commanders, one hundred i and seventy-one lieutenant commanders, besides forty-six lieuten ants, eighty masters and one hundred and fifty ensigns; to say nothing of fif teen surgeons ranking with captains, and fifty-feur with commanders. Sac ramento Union. Timely Explanation. Gen. Spin ner, United States Treasurer, writes a letter to the New York Evening I'ost defending tbe President from charges madeagainst himby someof the newspa pers, touching tbe McGarraban land grant. He says tbe President does not favor McGarraban s claim in any way. The President is convinced that Mc Garraban 'a claim is a forgery, aud tbat be has do legal right to the patent be asks. Spinner aUo explains that the objections of tbe President to issuing patent to the New Idna Mining Com pany for the lands claimed by McGar raban, bave no relation to tbe claim of the last named person. Tbe President is of the opinion that when McGar rahan's pretended grant failed, tbe lands became tbe property of tbe United States and tbat title still re mains in the Government. He thinks tbis property is worth many millions of dollars, and that Congress should pass a law to dispose of it for tbe beo efi of : all tbe people of the United states, inese opvnioos induced mm to direct tbe bead of the Land Office not to issue ia tbe President's name any patent to these lands either in favor of McGarraban or tbe New Idria Company before Congress shall have nad time to set npon tbe matter.

Tbe (jaeen replied with vehemence, ad vising them to mind their own busi ness. Tbe incident has materially al tered tbe feelings of the court towards Germany. Bismarck refuses to give Favre safe conduct to go to tbe Congress of tbe 1'owers. The expedition sent to Oran to ob serve the eclipse was a failure. New ork, Dee. 28 A correspond ent reports an interview at Bordeaux with Count De Chambourdy, Minister of Foreign Affairs, in regard to the chances of peace. The Minister said : At present peace seems distant. Feaee would be dishonorable on terms so in admissible. It would change trance into a tbird-rate power. Prussia made a great mistake in not concluding peace with Favre, at Terriers. Tbe world will condema her for her refusU to pro prose terms which might then bave been arranged in a manner tnat would have been honorable to Prussia, with out being bumiliatiDg to France. Not only might a guarantee againt future attacks by France upon Germany have been exacted, but a hatred and ihirst lor revenge, sure now to prevail in the future, tnifcbt bave been changed to es teem. All that is now impossible. No Ministry or constituent Asseuib'y or Government could for a moment treat for peace under the conditions now im posed by tbe Prussian Government. Tbe whole nation is armed, lhree months ago it was difficult to inspire the people with eourape, but now the Government is obliged to restrain and direct, rather than excite their patriotism. We need arms an artillery. It is true tbat these are coming in eve ry direction. We have offers of more than we want from England alone. Happily all political parties are patri otically determined to allow the pret eut Government to do their best for the national defense, and bave patience to wait. Tbey do not raise revolutionary cries, because events do not move quickly. Tbe Count then spoke of the present status of England, which he does not think has elevated herself in tbe scale ot nations, in her rereot ac tion oa continental affairs. The cor respondent asked But can England af ford war? Chambourdy replied There are other means beside drawing the sword, bv which a Great Power like England can make her influence felt. Those means she neglected to use, and she now finds herself tnsnlted by Rus sia. Delays in meeting ot tbe proposed Congress only gives Russia time to make ber preparations sure in the com ing spriog. Prompt action would bave been England's true policy, and with Austria ready to join ber moral and material support, England would clear France of the invaders in a fortnight, and sbow the rest of Europe that there ia a limit which the most powerful ar mies cannot pass. Such an alliance would be approved by the civilized world, lor it would prove tbat it was not an alliance of couqnest. Atfir9t France was to blame for seeking n quarrel and making aggressive war, al though the people were not responsi ble for tbat ; but now Prussia bas re jected an honorable and lasting peace, and tbe sentiment of tbe world bas un dergone a change. France is now struggling for existenc, and if she is crushed, England will feel tbe loss more than any other country. England can not dream of the consequences, if she shouhl allow France to be exterminat ed. Russia would then do what she pleases in the East, and Prussia in the West. England without a siDgle ally, will cease to belong to the first family of European nations, and be reduced to tbird-class power. New York, Dec. 28. A special from Versailles of tbe 2 2d shows tbat Paris vet retains some of her old brilliancy. The necessary business of tbe day is conducted gaily, as usual, within her precincts, aud cabs and omnibuses ply tbe streets. Shop windows display tempting arrays, just as ia former times. The sortie, a few days ago, was a gallant effort, bat was completely re pelled. It was bold in its conception, but feeble in its execution. There were 100,000 men engaged, besides gunboats and upwards of 20 batteries, without counting the guns in earth works. German losses were insignifi cant. K ASTERN HEWS. Richmond, Dec. 27. No more bod ies bave been recovered from tbe ruins of tbe recent great fire, and it is thought tbe number of victims is not known. Washington, Dec. 27. Tbe Depart ment of State has not prepared Minister Scbenck's instructions on tbe Alabama claims, nor will tbey be until Scbenck's return to Washington. It is not yet officially known wben tbe new Minister will leave, but, reports say about the middle of January. Atlanta, Ga., December 27. Tbe Radicals concede that Georgia bas gone Democratic by from 35,000 to 40,000 ; thns far only two Radical Senators are elected both colored men. CALIrORIU. San Francisco, Dec. 28. Tbe grand benefit at Woodward's Gardens, for different public charities, to-day, is an immense success. Ten thousand tick ets have been sold at from twenty-five cents to one dollar each, and tbe crowd in attendance is something almost un precedented. The sailing of the steamer Califor nia, for Portland, has been deterred un til Saturday. Greenbacks are ruling as follows: Buying, 90; selling, 91. Hour loe market is firm but in quiry is nut active. Tbe millers are working cautiously , not caring to carry heavy stocks. Oregon brands rale at $j5 37J; superior, $66. Eitra local mills super., $5i(jSJ; extra, $6 356 50. Wheat Four cargoes cleared for England during tbe week, aggregating 128,000 centals. Rates are: Suoerfine grades, $1 902 05; fair to good ship ping, $2 10(o2 15; choice muling, $2 20. Tbe District Attorney of Aalmeda connty is in town to-day, summoning witnesses to go before tbe Grand Jury of that county in tbe matter ol tbe mur der of Crittenden by Mrs. Fair. Tbe question of jurisdiction is still unset tled, bnt it appears quite likely the trial will take place in Alameda connty. Weather continues clear, with cold, strong north wind. : The , ship German!, 212 days from Liverpool, having put into Bio in dis tress twice, is outside, she has a ear go of pig iron, salt aad crockery, which will bave to be sold. Bottomrv bonds of $70,000 and other charges on th vessel and cargo to tbe value of about $50,000, will probably pay 50 cents on tbe dollar, leaving nothing for the ship pers of goods. We are informed tbat tbe claim of tbe Amens' Plow Co. aganist Tread well k Co. grew ont if an alleged vio lation of patent. Their business i not Interrupted on account of tbe sari, as rumored. Tbe freight train of Tnlly, Ochoa k DeLong, en-route to camp Goodwin, when about 30 miles east ot Toesoa, was attacked, daring a snow storm, oa tbo morning of tbe 8tb, by a larg party of Indians. After sharp 6gb, daring which Martin Rivera was killed, and two others wounded, tbe Indiana absquatulated with 37 bead of oxen. The wounded men were brought to Tucson. On the 10th, a band of Indianv made a raid on a heard of cattle belonging to Duncan k Co., at San Pedro Crossing, and succeeded in capturing and escap ing with the whole band. Swamp Lauds. We remarked the other day that the bill passed by tbe Legislature at its late session, relating to Swamp Lands, was " hastily considered and evidently got up in the interest of speculators and land grabbers." Notliving where tbe workings of the law were to be 'eit by practical observation, we really did not know how jastly we had hit the mark until we read tbe following editorial in tbe Jacksonville Sentinel, which shows bow the thing is done and how it operates whereswamp lands abound. Tbe Sentinel of Dec. ' 24th says : Our fellow citizens of Link River, probably recollect the swamp land ar gument used by Fay and his associates, during tbe last canvass. Link River was indignant at tbe prospect or' hav ing all ber swamp and overflowed lands, which constitute the best part of her commons, gobbled up by greedy land grabbers. She did cot want ber swamp lands monopolized by a few speculators, and hence the gave Fay tbe majority in tbat precinct, which secured bis election, in tbe county, and also gafe Uon. A. J. Burnett a very banosome and complimentary majority. Of course tbeir swamp laiid-i were safe alter Fay and Burnett were elected; tbey wouldn't let any body KuOble tbe land away from tbe honest tnnuers and stock raisers of Link River. Oh no I tbey wouldn't doit themselves eiiher; tbat was out of the question. But in the due course of legislation, a swamp land bill, a-AirA h:ul tie uj.fieorance of being very favor able to speculators, went through tbe Legislature. It was not, however, cal culated for ' rich capitalists" exclu sively. A poor man wbo had tbe oy- portunily oa his side, could gobble about as much as any one. Tnis is ihn popular feature ot tbe bill. Jack Burnett and Mike Hanley, about fif teen inioutes atier the thing became possible, threw tbeir lines around about 84,000 acres on Link River so rumor has it. And Fay and some of bis friends gobbled up Buck Lake val ley entirely, with about the same pre cipitation. This last also is public rumor only ; we bave not seen tbe documents for it. It was such a good chance, for poor men to make a specu lation, that, of course, Fay and Bur nett gobbled it up to keep the rich capitalists out of it. How are you Link River? Is it easier to be swal lowed by little hah than big ones? How do you like bills wbich allow poor men to speculate on an equal foot ing with rich capitalists ? Fay scared you with Bill Ish until you run right into his and Burnett's net, and it doesn't cost tbem a cent either ; that's the cream of the joke. We are happy to inform all ot our mends who are afllicted with a maiia for swamp laods, that Hon. J. N. T. Miller bas been appointed Deputy lor tbe selection of swamp ami overflowed lands in tbis county. If you know of any lands in tbe county which get moist occasionally, and which .you want, and Fay and Burnett baven't got and don't want, go aul see him. The Arlington Estate. In the Senate, Dec. 13th, McCreery, Senator from Kentucky, asked leave to introduce a resolution, looking to the ... . restoration of the Arlington estate to the Lee family and tbe removal of the grave yards on the premises. He oc cupied twenty minutes with a eulogy of Gen. Robert E. Lee and alluded to the recent death of both Thomas and Lee, as if that tact aDd the intimacy once existing between them, had a bearing on tbe subject of bis resolu tion. A portion of the debate wbich followed is given below: Edmunds said that, instead of being wedded to tbe institutions and des tinies of Virginia, General Lee was a ward of the nation. Tbat nation had ' ted, clothed and educated bim. Tbat he had lived at the capital, and wben tbe capital called upon bim to defend the flag under which be bad been born, protected and honored, be deliberate ly turned bis back upon, and planted his cannon in eight of tbe capital be bad sworn to protect and defend. But he (Edmunds) would not dignify tbe the propositiou by discussing it. Gen. Lee was now dead, and tbe only re gret be thought that right minded men would have, was that Gen. Lee bad not died in bis youth or in bis patriot ic manhood, or even that be bad died earlier than he did by tbe hand of the law, which penalty would bave atoned in some measure for bis crime. Morton protested against tbe consid eration of the resolution. He bad beard what be never expected to bear, a eulogy upon tbe character of General Lee in the Senate of tbe United Slates. and tbat, too, in sight of the graves of the victims ot his rebellion. Tbis man, General Lee, was, of all others in tbe rebellion, the sinner. He had sinned sgainst light and knowledge. His revolutionary ancestry, bis oath of fealty as an officer in tbe L nited states, bis finished education and high abili ties, all forbade bim tbus to sin, and tbe enormity of bis crime could not be concealed by decorating bis grave with flowers of rhetoric. In a word, it was now proposed tbat tbe Senate should gravely consider a proposition to degrade tbe memories of tbe patri otic dead at Arlington by removing their bones to a less hallowed ground, in tender coesideration of lb rights of a idow of an arch-rebel of tbe most wicked rebellion in history. Nye said tbat unseemly haste in other certain quarters to restore trai tors to power would resolt in no good. The verdict of to-day and yesterday, is and will be that General Lee was a traitor. The Senator (McCreery) bad declrred him hero So was Bene dict Arnold, but what would bave been tbougbtof a man who conld bave proposed to restore to Benedict Arnold his property in Connecticut? Flanagan, ia some general remarks, spoke of Davi.1, the other great traitor, wbo stfll lived; and in the light of re cent events it was not unreasonable to expect, at an early day, a move to make bim President. Other remarks of the same nature followed, and McCreery stated that he bad introduced tbe resolution without his colleague and at bis request de sired to withdraw it but tbe Senate re fused permission, and on direct vote bis request to iatroduce the resolution was refused, yeae, 4; aays, 54. So it appears that treason and lt heroes do not yet command a premium ia the imand a senate. United States $2 50 GENERAL NEWS. purtlah o. .

The San Francisco Bulletin of November 21st has the annexed in this connec tion: A specimen of the sugar manufac tured by by tbe Alvarado Beet Sugar Factory was exhibited in the Bulletin office St.urday, and if all tbe sugar ia equal to the small amount on exhibi tion, tbe success of tbe enterprise is established beyond peradventure. The sugar is pore white, granulated, ana will compare favorably with any arti cle of the kind manufactured elsewhere. We learn from a gentleman who is conversant with the history of the en terprise, tbat the parties who superia tended the operations of the factory came from Food du Lac, Wis., and there started into the manufacture of beet sugar. They demonstrated tbe feasibility of the beet sugar making plan, and placed tbe factory on a pay ing basis. Tbey received otters from two companies one io tbe bast, and tbe other in the West to inaugnrate the business and receive a tempting compensation therefor. Having inves ted all tbeir money in tbe Fond du Lac Factory, tbey declined tbe offi-rs. The Alvarado Beet Sugar Company purchased tbe factory and by tbat means succeeded in getting its maaa gers out here. The Alvarado Compa ny has $130,000 invested in tbe enter prise, including the building, machio erv. lands, sheep, etc. Tber bave enough beets on band to keep the fac tory busy for two months. Watst-proof Glue. A glue which is safe and not effected by moisture, mar be prepared by dissolving one ounce of saudarae and one ounce of mastic in half a pint of alcohol, and adding one ounce of white turpentine A verr thick glue is tnen to oe made, to wbich some isinglass is to be added. Tbe alcoholic solution is to be heated in a vessel to boiling, and poured grad ually, with constant stirring, into the warmed glne, until tbe wnoie is inti mately mixed together. Tbe mixture is finally to be strained through a cloth, and is then ready for use, and is to be applied hot. It dries quickly, becomes very hard, ana pieces oi wooa nnitea with it do not seperate in water.
