Th New York Timet, after publish log a call for a meeting at tha Academy of Music, to express sympathy with th freedom and unity of Italy com mented editorially upon tbe matter in a forcible article, which we republish Tbe Roman Catbotie organ at Portland chooses to advertise the Statbsmab at a foe to ibe Catholic Church. Such it not tbe care, for we would contend at firmly to maintain that church in itt rights at if It were our own. At for lit temporal authority we cannot tee that it can properly be maintained againtt tbe will and tbe .interests of Italy, or that it it essential to the, teaching of tbe goipel of peace on earth and good will to man wbote Di ine expounder distinctly refused tern poral power at a temptation and I enure, but on tbe contrary bad " not where to k'jr hit head." We retpect all that it good in tbe teaching and practice of tbe church, and we recotj niie much that it admirable, but when t'ie partisans of a faith become a rul ing political power, swaying tbe desti nies of a nation and awing tbe voices and sentiments of public men, tbere is cause for apprehension, and we would bear it at quirk were it Methodism at if it were Catholicism. Tbe Timtt eyt : We printed a call, yesterday, for a pontic meeting to ei press sympatby with the freedom and anity of Italy which should arouse every friend of free ioetitutions throughout the land jWe have already commented on the , tJsMrraceful tact that there hare been many grand meetings held in our Urge j citiet to exprett sympathy for the Pope, bat not one at yet to otter tbe Voice of approval of tbe American peO' pie over one of tbe greatest events of the age in tbe bistory or liberty and progress. Tbe Cause of this hesitation and apparent coldorts have been pa tent. They are of a like character with those which have obstructed tbu meeting. Tbe truth is, tbere it an established Church and a ruling class in New Yurk and other large towus but tbe'Charcb it not Protestant, and the rnhng class it not American. We understand from good authority and tbe fact is enough to make Ameri cans blusb for tbe machood of tbei publio men that tbere bat been tb utmost difficulty in inducing any pub l c man or statesman, from Mr. Colfax or even Mr. Sumner, downward to nt ter a word of sympathy for so tlirriog an eveot as the liberation of Rjrne and tbe unity of Iiaiiy, alter more thao thousand years ot teperation aod op presiioo, under one constitutional and free government. Even our own emi nent lawyers, whose tongues in more geoeraus years thrilled our people's hearts with their eloquence over much lest important events, tarn tbe cold boulder on this meeting, and have ' engagements in tbe Supreme Court." Hd a meeting been called by Mr. Tweed or Mayor Hall to express sym pathy wub some petty outbreak io Ireland, and.lhe occupation of Dublin by aa Irish Catholic force, if only for a lfw hours, no ball in the city could have been found large enough to coo tain tbe crowd, and every statesman and orator in the land would have been only too glad to lift up hit voice for Irish liberty. No " engagements" in tbe Courts or tbe Senate would have prevented their prompt attendance. Or tbonld Governor Hoffjiaa or Judge Bernard call aF rench meeting, to eele brate the evacuation of France by the German forces, at related io tome spe cial dispatch of tbe World's, there would be no difficulty in securing the most eloquent speakers and tbe most dit'inguisbed niea for tba eec-41011. Tbe reasons of tbe difficulties which have prevented tbe influential Commit tee from obtaining more of oar national orators for tbis occation are sufficient ly pUin. They need oo elaborate ex planation. Tbe established Church aod in, ru lax clats bare no sympathy with a libera ed RO'os or a united Italy. Tbey call the occupation of itt capital tb' by a nation " public robbery," aod the overthrow of one of the most stupid. reactionary and oppressive govern menti of Europe aa atlacn oo pu out right and Christian morality. Ualik .heir liberal . brethren io Italy and France, our religious rulers consider the temporal government of tbe Pope as indtspeosahl to bit priestly and spiritual InQaence. They long to tee tbe ancient oppression or priests re vived oa tbe banks of the Tiber, and wonld be glad 4ace more to have tbe necks of kinrt put beneath tbe feet i f tbe haughty Pun lift Tbey know noth ing of tbe long history c.f noble pro tests in the Catholic Cbaich agaiost the temporal power of tbe Popes Tbey are la no kind of sympathy with liberal Uaibolic hnrope. A consult tional Italy it a ter. or to tbem, for their priests have instructed tbem tbat liberty meant irreligion. A united Italian nation it a matter of indiffer ence to their minds, unlest tbe union be u utter pricett-raft. Tbe great ruling class in tbe United Statei have, accordingly, let oar pol til l tut understand tbat a whisper ol sympathy for Italian liberty will be tbe in n o- tbeir residential aspiration , or t cur political amnnoo. surn a warning it enough.

Bouse. ftUtto A New York corretpondent writet: I well remember one night the sta tion bouse on Mercer street, then under be charge of a very popular captain ot the police. Bit lodging apartment wet always well Blled, and with tbe oddest set of poor devils that came together in the whole city. They did oot teem criminal, . and at tbe worthy captain bad a kind heart, and n remarkably warm sympathy for any of the world's unfortunates, be treated bts lodgers with more con sideration than many do. Aod io consequence of tbit kindnett, the reg ular trampt were disposed to be quite frequent partakers of bit bospitaliry. He was i'lltv with them, aod tbey fervedjbim many a good turn by aiding Biol in bit police business, tie louoa out many of their histories, and noma were strange indeed io tbis matter of tact age.' Tbere were but few in tbis particular night none bat tb rega-'art.- It was a cold, drear nigbt; a nigbt when the New York streets are dismal econgb to tbe homeless; when tbe comfortable appearance of well lighted booset made tbe vagrants real ixe what they bad not. Even these men bare freliag, and tbit watoneoftbe nigbtt that Brought outthtMr "blues." ' A cheery fire lighted up the lodging room, and shone on tbe fares of tbe groups around the big stove. One man was cooking a steak which be tiid be had bought at Washington market for a tbilliu', and had laid him self out for a hearty meal with a Ot-r-man loaf of bread and a paper ot picklet at accompaniments. Some were playing cards, aod soma were smoking tbe democratic weed, used alike by patrician aod plebUn. S me were very dejected and sat gloomy la corners, as if ashamed of what tbey were. Curly Dick was there, a vet eran. Be had served term after term oa tha island, bat always came back to hit old trade. Be wat a little old nss with gray curly bair, very dirty, and emitting at many edort as tbe tamed German city, bot surprising to say, be bad on on a ne- coat, which ha was very proud ot looking down on it frequently with tbe delight of a boy io new boots with red tops. ... "Dick," taid tbe cptaio, "yon don't mind tbe gentleman beiog here? 1 am showing bim tbe tights to-uigbt, and he has taken quite a fancy to you, and wants to know bow it is you are on the tramp at your time of life. Get up and show off your pacer; tell bim something; ab. at yourself." Corlv Dick felt rather moody, but he coold hardly resist tbe captain's re quest. He stood op add shook hands with me, and said be wat glad to know a trii-od of the captains. " You see, my friend, I think a good deal of tbe captain, ' he said. "The captain aod me have kiown each other a long while. Why, blest you, I remember when he first caraetoNew York; He's pretty smart, aod I often tell bim so. Yes, I do," be continued, in answer to a deprecatory wave of tbe band from tbe captain. " My life has been a hard one, yes, a very hard one. I've been on tbe tramp a good while, bot I don't know at I have much to say about it. Who wat it said he had no 'story' to tell? Well, I'm very much like that man. I was born in England. In Lon don did you say 7 Yes, 1 nrst taw liiibt in tbat hig city. My father and mother were Hampers, ant well known to tbe parish authorities. My mother was a ballad singer at fairs, and ray father was a performer on ladders un til be broke bit arm one day, aod broke bit business at the same time. There was very little coming in, and it was a bard way to live. Idoo'tknow where my father died, for he left moth er one day, aod never appeared again. Tbat was wben I wat six years old. Mother died a year or so afterward in B ltoo workbeute, aod I became a stray' boy in London, tlerplng in the arches of tbe bridges, and picking up a living a best I rould." Tneo, Curly Dick continued, " at I grew up I followed gangs of showmen all overEagland, petturming as my father had done at fairs, and also in tbe streets of great cities. I never knew any regular trade ; I don't know f 1 bad known one it would have rasdo any difference to me. 1 never ceuid tit down tteady at anything. I must have change t can. t serve a master. Where tome men would have prospered, I fuled. Tbe blood of tbe tramp wat n me ; it't my nature. So from year to year, I led but this life. Five years ago I came tt tbis country, 1 tried to work for awhile; I did work bard: I tried to be an independent man, but it was no use. Now you see me home less aod alone, sleepiog where I chance to be,, in station bouses aud other pknper places, and I will prob ably end my days so. In snmmer I do farm work, or pick np jobs in the city; in the winter It is harder. I just man age to live and that's all." Dick t story done, be seemed to feel relieved, and drawing a short pipe from one ot the packet of the new coat, wat soon smoking; himself into oblivion of all bit trouble. Joke oa a Hnuon Blrer Batlroarl Condortor. Ooe day last week, a well known amateur ventriloquist wat a patsenger on board a Hudson river railroad car, which Wis in charge f conductor Falet. At tbe train proceeded, tbe ventri oi'iist begin tbe imitation of a roont t i i a tort of chuek-et-et-taw" style. A couple of repetitions brought tbe conductor into the ear in a borry, fiilloed by tbe brakeman, wbo in- s'ttd ibnt tbe " roo-ler" be taken into the baeirxge car, where he belonged. Of course, none of tbe passengers bad a " rooster" with which to accommo date tb x -alons officers. Tbe condnr tot aod OrakJman then waxed wroth and vowed tbey would find tbat rooster any way. Tbey walked np the aisle, carefully giant-log at tbe teet of each passenger for tbe basket or parrel io abicb the " rooster ' was roosting. In tbe middle of the car tbey found a woman with a big bsket in ber pos session. " Ub 1 bere It tbe game (rooster)," saM the conductor. 'Jes so," sav the brakeman. "let's pot him out." Tbe ventriloquist tat qui etly opposite, and threw bis voice ap parently into tbe basket. " It a here, tore,' taid the-conductor, wrtb a tig. ciGcaot glance at tbe brakeman, and addressing the lady, he inquired bland ly if sbe bad any objections to the re moval of tbe basket and contents of tbe buggage ear. The old lady didn't understand tbe joke at all, and think ing it against the railroad rales to carry a basket in the . passenger car, permittee tne coeouctor to take it away. He bad bardly started for tbe door wben tbe " rooster's" voice was beard in tbs rear of tbe car. , Tbit was too much for conductor P., wbo sud denly comprehended the joke, aod quickly retnrniog tbe lady's basket. pointed lor tbe nearest door, aa if oa bb important and pressing mission. The passengers set np alone) laagb-as be disappeared, and the employes ot tbe road bave takes np tbe rooster'? story at occasional intervals, to tbe ex pressed contempt and. disgust of tbe vigilant ear conductor. , - 1 Tbe Davenport (Iowa) GazeUt says : "Some disease among the swine in this vicinity is making sad havoc.

The play last evening drew a good heuae, and the performance of tbe Beatty's was well received. The play of " Timing a Tartar" wat successfully rendered, and the following songs, tableaux and pantomime were all good. Basket Sociable. The ladies have con tended to hare their sociable for the benefit of Mr. C. A. Reed on Friday night of this week. Tbey request a general participa tion, and tbat all who feel Inclined to assist bring provisions suitable for the occasion. We prophesy that this will prove a most successful affair and one of tbe most agree able of the season. Powdeb Biveb Miks A gentleman from Pochahontas, Powder River Valley, W. L. TVatkinds, informs us that good placer mines are discovered near tbat place, and rich quarts lodes are being worked tbere which promise good pay. A quarts mill is being built by Dr. Simontnn and others, and it is expected tbat the leads will prove very valuable. Eastern Oregon will some day be found very rich in gold and silver. Matrimonial Vestures. Wa heard of a wedding yesterday, tbe groom, a gentle man who bad only been in this eity ten days, at the commencement of which time he was an utter stranger to all tbe town save one gentleman friend. lie soon made tbe acquaintance of sisters of his friend's wife, and lo, and behold 1 he has now a wife of bis own chosen from the number. We bear of another case of sudden attack of that malady which seised a German res ident of this vicinity after about forty years success in remaining an old bachelor. It seems he was (mitten at Portland, and there laid his heart and personal effects at tbe disposal of a nice Dutch girl, telling ber of bis half section of valuable land, horses, cattle, and even bow much wheat was left in tbe bin. . Tho fair damsel list ened. Kith attention, and accompanied by a Udy friend came np to Salem to see for ber self.

Stateshar: 1 am informed that a committee of ladies and gentlemen will un dertake to canvass our city during the present week for the purpose of obtaining subscriptions to establish aod maintain a public library, Tbe pruamble to tbe sub scription list says the subscription are to be made upon the following conditions : 1. " The library shall be perpetually free from the control of any religious denomina tion, political party or sect. 2. " The subscriptions sball not be paya ble unless two thousand dollars shall be subscribed. 3. " Tbe said subscriptions shall be pay able upon the preceding condition immedi ately after tbe incorporation and organiza tion of tbe Library Association. 4. " Tbe subscription may be hereafter applied either as stock in tbe Association, as fees for life membership, or as a dona tion, as such subscriber may elect. 5. " Tbe subscribers shall have the power to determine ia a meeting before the incor poration of the Association as to whether it shell be a joiut stock company or other wise. These stipulations appear to cover any objections tbat may be made against the present step. I presume no one who has seriously thought of tbe subject will doubt for a moment that we need such an institu tion in Salem. We bare a population of nearly five thousand; oar property is worth almost three millions of dollars; we are in a prosperous condition financially ; important improvements have been wade within tbe city limits during tbe last two years and still greater improvements are projected for the approaching season. Our eity is the Capital of the State and has an ambition to take a high rank as an educa tional center. We rather flutter ourselves that we-are a reading people an intellec tual community.. Yet we bave no publie library. Tbe State library contains only law books and public documents. There is no place in tbe city where a stranger or even our own young men who have no homes (and tbere are many such among us) can go and spend an evening in profitable rea lin". They must hsne around their boarding bouses or go to the saloons ; they too often do the latter. Visitors from other States express surprise when they en quire for the library where Eastern news p ipers are kept on file and are informed tbat we bave no sucb place. Tbey are used to a different state of things. Tbey want to hear from home through tha news papers and often wish to spend a few hours reading books, especially such as give in formation concerning our own part of tbe wjrld. If they find no place in tbe Capi t il ef the Mate where such privileges ran be enjoyed hey tarry with us as short a time as possible and go away nnder the im- pression that we are a dull and Ignorant people. Thus we are injured in two ways, we lose tbe money they would spend during a single visit and our reputation abroad is tar nished. Many of us tax ourselves each year to take newspapers from abroad which we care to read only onee in a while or per haps merely to glance over. By contribu ting to a eommon fund we eonld bave ac cess to a much larger list of newspapers at no greater cost perhaps at a much less cost. Who of ns can afford to take the English magazines, the London Timtt or eren the leading Eastern newspapers Very few. I am sure. Many of us would like to do to ; we would all he greatly ben efitted by reading tbem occasionally or even merely glancing ever some of tbem once in a while. A public library wonld put it in the power of all to profit by tbe reading of such periodicals. I might say 4" great deal more about the netessity for a publie library, especially as a temperance and moral measdre. But I do not think there is much doubt at to the necessity. There seems to.be more doubt as to our ability to start a good library aad still more as to our ability to keep it up after it is started. The whole matter has been care fully Weighed, and men of judgment say it can be done. It remains to he seen whether tbe liberality and intelligence of the people of Salem have been misjudged I feel quite sure it bas not been. 1 f this communica tion meets your approval 1 will probably bave something to say hereafter about the kind ef library we need, its cost, etc. -Vu.

We learn from tbe jfotmlam Democrat published in Lb Grande, that tbe farm ers of Summerrille Precinct have bad a meeting to protest againtt their lands being claimed by new comen in disre gard of former filings by old tettlert. It seems that these settlers are notable to pay op promptly for tbete landt and require a little time, but tbey are wil ling to pay for them at the earliest pos sible moment. Tbere are persons who are willing to take advantage of tbis present inability on tbeir part, by boy ing tbeir land from nnder them. The sense of tbe meeting was exprrited by resolutions in which the tettlert re solve to ttand by each other at a eague, mutually pledged to assist each other in defending the landt to which bey have imparted value by their le oor.'in any way deemed most prudent and effective. This looks very ranch tt if Democratic legislation wat not popular in that Section. Some land grabber, we have understood, long tgo filed hit claimt to all tbe wet landt in Union county, claiming a great por tion of Graod Rood Valley at such. Tbit seems io perfect accord with Democratic legislation; but doesn't satisfy tbe farmer who bat settled apoo and improved landt, Intending to pay the State in good time a fair price for tbem. Whatever toe complaint of these men may be, It undoubtedly is caoseJ by some hardship impost d by the reckless legislation of last fall. In the Swan p Land matter tbe rigbta of tettlert should bare been fully pro vided for, aod in any case abundant time should be given by tbe . Stale to complete tbe purchase of lands occu pied in good faith by bona fide settlers. If tbis thing tbonld result io a rising of tettlert to expel intruderi wbo wish to deprive tbem of tbeir laode, tbe re sult will be deplorable. There it no excuse for batty legislation ; no pun ishment it tevere enough for corrupt legislation. The influence of land grabbers and speculators will be so dreaded in time tbat it may be neces sary to treat legislator! as tbey do jurors shut them up and deny tbem intercourse with the outside world uotil tber work is done. Tbe idea is oot a bad one, and would insure quick work and short sessions. California Politics. Politics in the neighboring State are remarkrbly mixed. Gov. Haight it disposed to be renominated, because be tbinks it necessary to oppose the greedy corporations by tome firm exec utive conduct tucb at be baa been in dulging in. The corporatians bave managed to control, to a certain ex- tent, the press 00 both sides, members of tbem having purchased newspaper stock very liberally of late. There is not much chance for tbe nomination of Governor Haight Ly the regular De mocracy, though it is possible tbat be may be the candidate of an indepen dent anti-railroad mooopoty party, should the corporation influence secore nomination in toth the regular party conventions. On tbe Republican side we bear the name of Newton Booth, of San Fran cisco, urged as the most favorable candidate. Mr. Booth is a merchant of most excellent character and of tbe most sincere convictions. He is nrged at an honett and capable matt, by such pspert as the Sacramento Union aod tbe S. F. Bulletin, and unlest tbe rail road influence preponderates, we shall lock for hie nomination aa the Repub lican CcnJidte, with a good prospect of bis election by the people. State News. Portland. We barn from the Bulletin that Messrs. Savier A Bumside intend to build a band some block on Front street tbe present sea son. Tbe various military companies were to parade yesterday in bonor of tbe anniver sary of tbe birthday of Washington. Governor 0 rover was at Portland stop ping at the Cosmopolitan. Boats were makinr the round trip to Monticello and back the same day. A slight fall of snow had disturbed the monotony of the climate at the'emporium. The lots in East Portland constituting tbe Hol'aJay addition have been withdrawn from sale. From the Oregnnian: The bark Rose- dle cleared yesterday for Liverpool. Her cargo consists of 11,333 sacks of wheat, tquil to 1,300, 741 pounds of the value of $28,018 19. Sbe will probably go down tbe river to-day and sail immediately for ber destination. Judge Stout's condition yesterday was reported as no better. His physicians have resorted -to the tapping process, but with- out any hopeful results, and there is little. if leBBwabls expectation that he can recover. We mentioned yesterday morning a ease of sudden death at Oregon City a yonng man who dropped dead upon the sidewalk. We learned yesterday that his name was Ed. Meldrum, formerly a printer in tbe employ of Mr. Ireland, in the Eattrpritt office. There is something peculiar in the ease: Though there is no doubt in the minds of medical men that he is really dead, the body remained, np to noon yes terday, flexible at in life, with some degree of warmth. Tbe family, andrr the circum stances, very properly refused to have tho body Interred. From the Herald : Harris and ton, the father accused of stealing 8 belt from tba driving wheel of the Portland saw mill, and the son for passing counterfeit money, were yesterday, committed to the county jail to await the action of the grand jury. Isaac Brigman, arraigned in tbe Circuit Court on tbe charge of rape, forfeited hit bondt of $1,000, by not appearing for trial. Messrs. Breck and Marquatn, the sanities. were compelled to pay the forfeit. Charles Brandt, aecussed of grand lar ceny, by purchasing of J. F. Powers, oa First street, a lot of goods, selling them, ana leaving me county witnout paying, yesterday pleaded guilty to petty larceny. Taweemi Ceamy. From the Wat S'dt: Mr. T. B. Stand- ley, of Staadley't mills. Mi while framing a building and got a bad leg by the fall. John Caves was tried by three sneeassive juries on the charge of stealing a sack of flour from Hendricks mill, and each jury railed to agree. TlUassaawk. We learn that Mr. Redding. Mr. Bab eock and other settlers, of Nestucca valley. have found indications of gold diggings on" WEDNESDAY; MARCH 1, 1871. and Tillamook. They were out exploring and were not provided with tools for min ing, but panned out the dirt U a frying pan. Our informant it not a practical miner, but from Ms description of tbe pros- j pect we judge the diggings to be what are called quicksilver mining, or fiat gold, which is io such fine particles that what is called a eoler hardly weighs anything, but as tbey obtained from 200 to 400 "colors" to tbe pan wherever it was tried, tbe prob ability is that the diggings will pav for prospecting further. Mr. E. did not feel at liberty to enter further into particulars until tie ducoverershad made tbeir arrange ments perfect for locating their claims en the lead, but promised to let as bear from bim again in due time. Last week we met Mr. Redding, of Nes tucca, on his nay to Portland, to purchase supplies for bis rtneh. lis informs us that cattle on the coast have kept fat all winter, lie has about 80 head on Nestucca river and tbere are in all about 260 bead owned by four men who live there. Tbey bave not fed a mouthful to any of their stock. There is abundance of range and tbe set tiers are laying more cattle in order to reap the benefit of it. Btock cross the river aod pasture within the lines of tbe Indian reservation, en grass which otherwise wonld go to waste entirely. Tbe valley of the Nestucca adds nothing to tbe advantage of tbe Indians as a reservation, but if thrown open to settlement would support a good colony, both in raising stock and by farm ing. We hope to see a change made in the northern boundary of tbe reservation, to that tbis desirable piece of land may be utilised in some way. City and County Items. Lost and Focxn. The lady wbo ex changed a black shawl at the last sociable can change back by calling at this office. The acorn ear-drop is found and in our possession. Salem Mills. The high water has pre vented work at the flouring mills fr sev eral days, bnt tbe river U going down and work will soon re-cemmence. The Weather, ttc. Yesterday was clear and delightful, but preceded by frost tbat was quite sharp. The last efforts of tho storm were noticeable in tbe form of snow tbat robed the Waldo Hills and iuy in patches on tbe bills over in Polk. That Sociable. Tbe ladies are taking great interest in securing tbe success of the sociable for Friday night for tbe benefit of Mr. Heed, and it will undoubtedly be the best thine of season. They request liberal contributions of provisions. Lectcre OX Shodot. Tho Portlaud Dailies give an interesting account of a lec ture recently delivered there, before tbe Young Men's Christian Association, by Kev. D. K. Xesbit, of Corvallis. With Shoddy for bis theme, the lecturer succeed ed in pleasing his audience, treating the I subject with skill and happily illustrating with anecdote. At Chicago. M'e learn that Mr. Cross is at Chicago packing and curing meat to fill a Government contract at San Francis co. Considerable was killed and packed bere to apply on the same, but as pork took a risn bere last full Mr. Cross thought he would try the experiment at Chicago. He talked of suiting the meat dawn in bulk there, in cars, and let it cure oo the way to work its passage. Wasbixctox's Birtudat. Testerday the flairs at the Engine bouses and at the State Capital were flying to the breeze in honor of the anniversary ; the weather wat clear and pleasant, for the first time in malty days, a sign that Nature honors the day. The only public proceeding in its honor was the Fireman's ball, held last evening. Tbe Sister's school was adjourned as a tribute to tbe memory of tho Falher of his Country, an example all of the schools in America might well afford to follow. The time can never come that it should fail to command the respect of every citizen of our land, and it should be established at a National holiday. Daxcixo School. We call attention to the advertisement of Mr. Parrish and wife, whose first term of dancing school has passed most successfully. They still eon- i tinue to teach on Thursday and Satur day of each week, and those wbo wish to join ran do so at any time as they give the full number of lessons to make up a term which can commence at any time. We at tended one of tbe club dances of Thursday evening, not long since, which are conducted by Mr. and Mrs. P., and found a large and pleasant company enjoying themselves very much. The company is select and under the direction of Mr. Parrish. The club has improved wonderfully in tbe graceful art. WahkeVs Record or Attaismest. A small book bearing this title, designed for tbe mutual use of teachers, pupils and pa rents, has just been published by S. J. Mc Corinick, of Portland. Prof. R. K. War ren, Principal of the Central Public school, a teacher of long and eminently ' successful experience, is the author. It is designed to be a daily record of the attend ance, progress of studies and deportment of the pupil, with a monthly report of the same to tbe parent. The pupil himself bas a copy and keeps a duplicate of the teach er's record. The record is easily kept and understood, compset and convenient, a whole term being pnt upon a single psge.

The resolution referred to having passed tbe House, the Seoate acted on it Feb. 5th : Mr. Williams I ak for tbe present consideration of tbat joint resolution for tbe reason tbat it bas been consid ered by tbe Committee on Public Lands of tbe 8enateacd a bill reported back to tba Senate exactly like it. It relates to a local matter, and I presume tbere will be no objection to it. By noaoimons consent, tbe joint res olution (H. R. No 487) relative fo school lands in tbe State of Oregon was read twice and considered as in Committee of the Whole. It gives tbe assent of Cootrress to tbe application of tbe five hundred thousand acres of land granted to the State of Oregon by tbe Act of Congress approved Septem ber 4, 1841, to tbe aopport of common schools, at provided in tection two, ar ticle eight, of tbe i;onstitatioo oi tne State. Bat nothing herein contained it to influence the construction or ef fect of the Act admiwiag the Stale into the Union at to tbat application. Mr. Cot belt I was fearful tbat tots joint resolution did not cover the case, as we desired to secure those laaas io tbe tcboolt; bat on consultation with soma Senators, and with nv eolleairue wbo bat bad it in particular charge, 1 am assured that ba thinks it will eover tbe case sufficiently. I am therefore willinsi tbat it should pass. The joint resolution was reported to tbe Senate without ameedmeat, ordered to a third reading, read tbe third time, and patted.

Editob Statesmas I Jaid something in your issue of yesterday relative to the ne eessity lor a public library in galea. Be fore adding anything more, at I wisii to be truthful in my statements, permit me to eorreet'an overstatement of our population which appears in tbe article to which I bave referred. It is there estimated at 5, 000 ; it should bave been 4,000. One of tbe most frequent qnostions asked of the friends of tbe Library movement is this, "liave yon counted the cost? Can we start a respectable library and keep it up after it has been started T" We very reasonably hope to have two hundred mem bers by tbe close of the first year. To ac commodate each of these with a book to read and still have a respectable assortment left Opon our shelvae we ought to have at least one thousand volumes of course the more books we have and the better the se lection tbe more sure and rapid will be the progress of the library to popular favor. We shall want works of aa approved char acter by the best authors ; they must be of tbe kinds that are most commonly sought after by a miscellaneous class of readers ; besides histories and standard works in oth er branches, of literature, we should have a large per centaxe of works of fiction by the standard authors Scott, Dickens, Ir ving, Cooper, etc. Such books of the bind ing we sball want, can be obtainsd at a very ressnnable price. Probably $1,000 will get the fall thousand volumes, perhips more. We mutt have our rooms fitted np with car pets, newspaper racks and sheWet for books. Tbis will require (200, vhieh, if necessary, can be taken from tbe $2,000 to be subscribed; but It should be in addition to tbat sum. Tbe subscription prr does not say whether books will be receited in payment of subscriptions, but as tbe money will be expended for books, it is to be pre. sumed that, nnder suitable regulations, tbe committee on library, after tha organiza tion of tbe sssociaticn, will bave power to receive books that may be wanted, in part payment of subscriptions.' Many would prefer to give money; but some may have jost the books we need, which they may be willing to put in for less than we can bay them elsewhere. Tbis is a matter which will have to be left to the Directors after or ganization. We bsve now fignred on a capital of at least 2,000. Let us jut it at the lajgher figure $2,200. That much, we will sup pose. mut be raised, either in cash or in books of tbe kind wanted, at wholesale cash rittes. Some of ibe members of the Committee have met with very encourajiiig sorce, as I am informed, and tbere is little doubt tbat after tbe matter is better under stood, the sum required can be obtained. Now then , as to the current expenses of the library after it is started. Let us put them down as follows: For Librarian, per atisom t?00 " newspapers and aasratines. 200 " new books during tbe year-......... 200 " room rent - ISO " fuel and lights 150 Totil for the flrstyear , $1000 I have put the salary of tbe librarian at a low figure, but it is as much as tbe State of Oregon paid for many years, and as much as the Portland Library paid for three years after it was first started. A competent librarian can be got for tbat sum until we are able to pay more, ne should be required to be present and keep the rooms open from 7 or 8 o'clock, a.m., until 10 o'clock p.m., with the usual recesses. I bave estimated for room rent so as to be oa tbe safe side; but it is probable that good rooms eaa be obtained free of rent. A good offer of this kind bas already baea made. As to sources of revenue, we have above counted upon having by the close of the year, 200 members. In Portland and in San Francisco, tbe qaarterly dues are fixed at three dollars. Here, it is probable tbat a lower sum would make the library more popular, and result in more good to our people. It is intended cbiefiy tor the bene fit of those wbo are in such circumstances ss not to be able to spare much money. If by putting the dues down to $2 25 or $1 iO p-r quarter, we can get aa much money aa we can by requiring $3 per quarter. We had better say tbe least amount, as wa will tbcrehy benenfit (he greatest number. A the lowest rate mentioned, 200 members will pay $1,200 a year. This will pay our expenses and leave $200 to eover losses or for investment in books. Tbere is another source of revenue which is very popular and productive in tbe older States. I mean public lectures, where a small entrance fee is charged, for the bene fit of the library. A course of lectures wonld give us the advantage of receiving in a few hours, tbe benefits of many hour's la bor on the part of tbe lecturer, and while our receipur from that source would be small for a few years, they will undoubt edly increase with the taste for that meant of education. It has been suggested tbat the City Coun cil might very properly assist tbe movement by subscribing something for the library, and also contributing annually to its sup port. This is done by many cities in other States. In some instances, magnificent li braries are built up by direct taxation up on the people, tbe libraries being made free. Tbe records of our city show tbat over 000 were received last year for licenses. Ten per eeut. of tbis sum would pay our librarian and leave as much more to be applied to tbe purchase of books. It is customary to contribute from the publie fond tor tbe cel ebration of the Fourth of July. Tor this purpose two or three hundred dollars were given last year, why not give to a library 7 But we should not depend upon such help. Tbe gods help those who help them selves," says tha old adage. Let at rely upon our own meant, and then if the eity or any good friend who desires to invest his money wisely before trying the life beyond the river, sball see fit to give us anything. it will be so much gained. If I bad not already taken np so much space, I would say something about tbe way I think tbe library association should be organised and about tha adjancts to it; such as a Young Men s Christian Aassoeution, literary club, etc., etc I may do tbat hereafter.

If over four million! of tbe ten rail lions ot first mortgage bondt have been told tbere will only remain six millions of bonds, which are offered for sale for four millions of dollars, to con struct nearly three hundred miles of railroad over a rough country much of tbe way. Tbis will not amount to qnite fifteen thousand dollars a mile aod will not more than half cover tbe cost, aod the proceeds of sa'ei of tbe lands cannot be depended on to help out tbe coostrnctlon.

The ladlan Territory Mrttaee from Crant- Washington, Jan. 30th. Tbe Presi dent lent to Congrett, to-day, the fol lowing message : To tbe Senate and Monte of Repre sentatives, I transmit herewith an of ficial copy of tbe proceedings of tbe Council of Indian tribes held at Omul gee, in December last, which resulted n the adoption of a declaration of right, and a Constitution for tbeir government, together with a copy of tbe report of tbe Commissioners of In dian Affairs, and the views of the Sec retary of tbe Interior thereon. It would seem bigbly desirable tbat tbe civilised Indiana of tbe country sbonld b encouraged ia establishing for themselves a form of Territorial government compatible with tbe Con stitution of the United States, and with the previous custom toward communi ties lying ontside of tbe State limits. I concur in tbe views expressed by tbe Secretary of the Interior, tbat it would not be advisable .to receive the new Territory with the Constitution as it is now named. So long as a Territorial form of troveroment it preserved, Cob- grast should hold tbe power of approv ing or disapprovtBg ot a:i Legislative action of the Territory, aod tbe Exec a -live should, with the advice and con tent of the Senate," bave th power to appoint tbe Governor and jtdicial officers, aod, possibly, some others of the Territory. Tbit It tbe first indication of the Aborigioet detiriog to adopt oor form of Government, and it it bigbly deiira ble tbat tbey become teif-sottaining, self relying, CbrUtianixcd and civil ised. If successful in tbis, tbeir first attempt at Territorial government, wa may hope for a gradual concentration of other Indians in the new Territory. I therefore recommend at close an ad herence to their withet at it contittent with safety. It might be well to limit the appointment of all Territorial offi cers appointed by the Executive, to na tive eiMnt of the Territory, If any exception be made to tbis rale, I wonld recommend that it sbonld be limited to tbe Judiciary. It is eooSdeatly hoped that tbe policy now being pnr- soed toward tbe Indian will fit bim for self-government and make bim desire to sefle among people of bis owa race, where he cn enjoy ths full privilege of civil and enlightened government.
