Ma. Kditob : Here I am again back star old trade. I koowd that Job Baker was crowded with bigness jus ow, and wanting to turn my lata ad ucation in the State school to some ac count,' I made a bargain to work fo Jobs. I brot all my clothes orer las night for I've got several new suit oa band already and find that Johi makes a fust rate boss. By a privat arrangement with me he has put np red corn-cob, with a ligbtoiog bug oi the end of it, on each corner of bit yard, and he says that is enough t keep Watkinds away, so I'm perfectly ate. BDLTX COMBS TO BALIM. This morning hearing as how there was to be a trial in town, I changec my rig a little, put on a serious look and went to Salem to sea what sort of a defense Watkinds cculd make for such poor shooting as he did the other day. I wasn't a bit surprised when he owned up and gire bail, but to tare my gifzard I don't see bow toy nan cou.a get elected to an office who would let such poor shootiug off at such a low figure, I consider that a man that can't shoot any better than that, and will insist on shooting in pub lic, oug'nt to be let run out at any price. SHULTZ MAI IS A DISCOVERY. Having the lightning bugs in mind 'and not being afeardh I had my hair curled and face polished at a barbers s a to make my disguise complete, ano stepped in to make Bill a fashionable rail, introducing myself as a warm ad tnirer of bU'n from Soap creek, telling him an allfired iie that he was the only man in Oregou that I allowed tr be a better Democrnt than the under t'guel. ' He bit at that thar bait tre. menjus, became confidential like and told me all about his fight with Sam Clarke, bow be laid in wait for him all the afternoon, jumped on bim fron behind and give him h 11, until the ornery black Republican cuss stack bis knife into bim; and then be pulled out his watch, and that red hot visage of his turned a sort of murky white as be explained that the cuttin of his watch was all that saved his wind, and . be thought for mor'a two hours that ha was. a gone coon, till he accidental ly found that it was Lis watch that was split and not him. A PBW PARTICULARS. I asked him bow bis revolver come to shoot so wild, and be said be didn't k iow why it was, unlets bis nerve were unsettled bv beting? drove into the street hy that pocket knife. He al-! wajs did have a powerful borroro' ! cold steel, even in small quaotitie. I axed bim bow be come to put up the job, and he explained that be was in cahoots with a chap, whose name 1 disremember. what keeps a Dawn- broker's shop, with big plate glas-i windows, who bad a spite agin you, j but couldn't make np bis mindtoai- tend to the business himself, being tor i much of a gentleman like, and no jj hankering afitr tba job. So Bill sail j be undertook such small j jLs for him j While we was a talking the pawn- I broker chap came in and Bill sajs u I him. " If it hadn't been for von : ) wouldn't have . into h I of a fuss,' J and he remarked afterward, melao- eholy like, " I was a d d fool to allow ! any man to influence me to do such r .sklner- " That nearnhrnk.r man didn't I aay nary word. eLOBlXO 1IM1BKS.

It accuses the Monarchist Deputies of not keeping the agreement made in Bordeaux, stipulating that partisan politics should be avoided, and charges the legitimist members from the Provinces with intriguing for the restoration of the Monarchy and intervention in favor ot the Pope. ' Paris, June 14. In the Assembly to-day Troehu continued his defense of tho ad ministration of military nffairs in Paris. He gave a minute account of the aortios durinr the f lege, and the reasons therefor ; attributed their defeat to the fact that tbe Germans used artillery only. He believed the French would have beaten the German infantry, if they could have engaged them. His main plan had been a grand sortie to ward Rouen, but after the victory of Or leans, publio opinion demanded a junction of the garrison of Paris with the Aarmy of the Loire, which was sheer madness. One of the great obstacles in the conduct of the defense was the disorderly clement of Paris, which was instigated by Bismarck to rebel. and was furnished arms by the enemy. He stiginatired tbe commencement of the bombardment by the Germans without formal notice as an unparalleled violation of the rules of civilized warfare. Versailles, June 14. The visit of the Assembly to Paris is regarded as the first approach of genuine reconciliation.

All but one of those who are missing or drowned leave wives and families behind, who were dependent on them for means to live through tbe long and profitless winters of New Foundland.

A dispatch from Ottawa says recent ad vices from New Foundland gire the par ticulars of the reception of the Treaty of Washington in one of the Provinces most interested in the question of the fisheries. Tbe people of Nova Scotia and New Bruns wick expected that New Foundland would be wholly with them in opposition to tbe Treaty, bnt on the contrary the sentiment of that Colony, and of the fishermen, ap pears to be entirely in fvor of ratification.

Idaho Territory. : From the Boise City Democrat of June lto we glean this : Many farmers down the valley, who have heretofore depended ou the rise in the river to irrigate their farms, have been disap pointed thus far this season. A few more warm days will bring tbe river up sufficient ly for that purpose. On the ranch of James Stout, about a mile above town, three hundred and fifty six gophers were trapped this season, with out any apparent diminution in their num bers. Other farmers go for gophers at the same liijk. The price of real estate is advancing a little in Boise City.-' Two years hence prop erty will be more than doubled in value, which state of things will be brought about by the railroad. Idaho will prove no ex ception to the rule, in the case of a railroad passing down some of her valleys, and bet ter times will surely follow such an event. The company from thoCamp Three Forks, who are to be stationed at Fort Boise, ar rived at their quarters bore yesterday even ing. They are under command ef Lieut Hammond, who takes command of this post. The destination! of tbe present officers at Fort Boise is not yet known. Portland. From the Portland dailies of the ICth, we cull as follows : The llulUliit states that arrangements are being made in East Portland for a real good, old fashioned fourth of July celebra tion. Thirty-five new ears are in process of con struction at the shops of the Oregon i, Cal ifornia Railroad Company, near East Port land. The river at Portland day before yester day, was within four feet nnd four inches of the high water mark of 18l'.2. The Orcyimian says a colony is being formed to establish a settlement near Shoal water Hay. Freighting np the river is for tho present suspended, on account of the high water at the Dalles. The Hcrnld states that large quantities of salmon are being shipped direct from Wcstport and Portland. SUNDAY. Purpose. Snnday morning reader, will you please look at tbe above word? And will you just repeat it, three times, with a long breath between, so its full idea may settle down deep into your understanding, before you read this Sunday morning before breakfast kitch en sermon? Well, now, you have thought itoytr and "studied on it," let me ask : Do you undertland its practical meaning? Look out of the back door and see that Male bird, fly ing away with a bit of stick or wood in its beak. As an intelligent, think ing man, standing in dominion at the bead of creation, I ask again : What are your thoughts? Why, evidently, if our own inner man is awnke enough to stand up to the windows of tbe mind and think at all, we conclude that the little songster has a purpose even in that little act ; and that ulti mate purpose is, that the may raise her young, the necessary means of which is, that she must build her De.-t. And this rule prevails through sentient nature every where, ricept, perhaps, with man. As you have entered upon the task of using up the lovely sun shine and privileges of this hallowed day, what is your purpose? Is it only to absorb, and give nothing back iu return? If so, you should have been a stone, or a sponge. Animate, or vegetable nature even, knows no such law and Gils no such destiny. Again I ask, what is you purpose for this day for life lorever for thus far can, and should it rench. The tools, or means to bring about that purpose can only be used to-day not to-morrow. Remember this : Every respon sible or accountable act jou perform is the re. ult of a purpose, or intent to do that act. If you take that which belongs to another, no one will call yon a thief, because you did not intend to a steal. If you accidentally kill your neighbor, no one will adjudge you guity of murder, because you did not purpose or intend to kill. So, if you wish to climb to a com manding eminence of worth or useful ness, you must purpose so to do; for the currents of life don't drift men up bill. Tbey are all the other way, and the great difficulty with too many is, like drift-wood upon tbe great sea of life, tbey are drifting, ever drifting, without a fixed and steady purpose, in all they do. Young man, stop and take your bearing this morning ; see where you are, and what is your pur pose for manhood and tbe future ! Is it to make 'a record of infamy and a character for hell?. Then go to some religious meeting to-day, cut up har ness and sadJles, and make yourself odious by playing the low lived border ruffian and greaser generally, or bang around some wbitky-shop, instead. But thank God there are but few such iu Oregon. To the praise of tbe young men of my acquaintance be it said. Their aim is high, their purpose noble. May it be excelsior, excelsior, till from tbe high battlements of Heav en to which they have climbed, they may sweep through the grjeat ocean of God's infinite wisdom and glory with telescopic vision, and rijoice that, to day thry purposed in their heart to walk in that upward direction.

The County Court acted on the peti tion for a road from Silvertoo to Brooks' Station, on the O. k C. R. R., at the late termnd viewers and survey ors were appointed to review and sur. vey the route, and report at next term of court. It is an important road. It will cross Big Pudding River at higb banks on both sides, ,and a narrow place for the bottom, and the travel on that route could not be affected by high water. The camp meeting for Silvertoo Cir cuit will come off at tbe Newton camp ground next week, beginning on the 22nd inst. The roads leading to that point are in fine and smooth condition, and tbe grounds will be prepared on the 20th inst. Those wishing to visit tbe meeting who will go from Salem will find a pleasant trip and agreeable scenery on tbe route. Fall wheat is very fine ia this coun try. Especially meadows, and early sown spring wheat, and oats are excel lent. Early gardens are poor, bnt there will be enough of inch vegeta bles raised for bon.e demand. There will be a fine supply of ap pies, pears aad some of tbe soft fruits. Pastures are very fine, and stock in fine condition. Large numbers of stock cattle and sheep are bought up in this county, and now passing ovr tbe Cas cades, to the almost boundless grating plains in Eastern Oregon. Samuel and Virgil Newton started last week with a drove of 150 bead of stock cat t'e from Mill Creek, boand for Crooked River. Tbe high prices paid for grain and wool, and those paid for cattle and sheep, with the prospect of a fine in coming crop, cheer up our farmers and render times lively in the country. .The cause of temperance is looking np in Oregon. Politicians arer already beginning to discuss prosperti and measures, and squaring around for good pUlks for platforms. The es capes from tbe Penitentiary, aud the strange doing's thereabouts cause tbe pople to wonder. If tbe keeper there ran sboot no better at convict than at Sam. Clarke, then bis boys ia chains may look op with pretty good hopes of escape. The dry season and tbe delightful weather are upon us, and all nature smiles. The ear'.b is coated with a carpet of green, and the view from this city towards the Coast range and tbe Cascade range is enchanting. Emi grants are coming in and tbey are gen erally of tbe right sort.-. Lands are so low in this country in proportion to tbeir real and prospective value that strangers can, witb moderate sums, be come well situated. Taking a general vi w of all our surroundings, it is not hard to discern that our countyand in fact all Oregon, are on the high road to wealth and general prosperitv. R. S. City and County items.

We feel a great deal of prido iu the fact that Salem made wagons are become established in reputa tion and eagerly sought for by buyers. The Bowie wagons are sold as fast as made and engaged in advnnee as far as the mak ers dare prnnise them. Tho encourage ment ia so great that we expect to sec ex tensive machinery added soon to increase and cheapen the manufacture. The wagon being made by J. IE Bridges & Co., with Duval's patent iron wheel, is finally completed, and commands great ad miration. Several aro engaged in addition to those sold in advance. Mr. Bridges in inforuis us that he has been recommended to put up a light spring wagon to send to the Mechanics' Fair at San Francisco, to show the nature of the invention. By so doing we believe he will create a great deal of interest in what seems to be a new dis covery in mechanics, and we believe a very valuable one.

More Goon Cheese.

Last Sunday, the Indians wbo hang around town got into a gambling quarrel, which resulted iu tbo killing of one of their number, by Molalla Henry. The murderer has not been arrested. A man, whose name we could not learn, while drunk, fell off the steps leading up the blulf at the upper end of (own, and got pretty severely cut up. He will probably keep away from there hereafter when drunk. Archbishop F. N. Blanche! paid our city a visit last Saturday, for the first time since his return from Rome. On Sunday ho administered tho Sacrament of Confir mation to a class of ten crsons at tbe Church of tbe Sacred Heart, tbo ccrcruo i.ies leing witnessed by a I.-rgr congrega tion, and were very interesting.

From tbo Portland pipers of the 17th inst. we cull the following : The llulliHa states that tho P. T. Co.'s steamer, to take the place of the Alert, was launched on Friday tLo lSih inst. A large shipment of wool has been made from Walla to San Francisco ria Portland. The Jferal,! says that Mr. D. Walton has beeu authorized to extend an invitation to the Irish Exiles, now in San Francisco, to visit Portland. Stale Trniperaace Convention. The committee on resolutions pre sented the following, which was adopted: Retolutd, 1st. That it seems to us the best polu-y for tbe friends of Tem perance to unite in getting a State law enacted giving to precincts, incorpora ted towns, nnd cities, tbe sole right by ballot to allow or refuse license lor the sale of intoxicating liquors within tbeir limits; and tbat where licenses are thns granted by ballot those per sons who may be licensed be held res sponsible for the effects of what they sell according to the Ohio law. Rrtolvcd, 2d. Tbat in harmony with the above we appoint a committee of three in each county, wbo, calling to tbeir aid sorb belp as tbey may need, shall thoroughly canvass the State for the names of citizens and voters in sep arate lists, petitioning tbe legislature to that effect. Setohid, 3d. That a committee of fire be appointed as a central State committee to counsel with leading pol iticians and statesmen of the Slate, ar ranging for temperance voters to act with either existing political party that will incorporate tbe first of these res. olutions into its platform, or in case neither party will do this to organize a srparate Temperance party that will. Rrtolvtd, 4th. Tbat the nse of alco hol either as a beverage or a medicine or for sacramental purposes Is most pernicious to tbe human family. Tbat as a medicine it bas no use. but is an abnso always, and tbat the only true and practical platform for earnest Tem perance men and women is, total absti nence from all spirituous er malt liq. nors for any or all purposes which re quire it to be taken into tbe human system; and we further deliberately re solve that to long as we admit tbe the ory of tbe doctors, that alcohol is use ful in the human system, that it sap. por-s vitally, and is therefore necessa ry for tbe preservation of human life, we can never succeed, to any great ex tent, in convincing people that it is a poisonous substance, only when it is taken withont the antbority of a reg ular physician, as tbey are n t likely to believe that a physician bas the magical power to change the physical! properties of alcobol and divest it or its poisonous qualities merely by a pre scription. We ought to recognise the fact that a house divided against itself cannot stand, and tbat doctors' theory and practice will always succeed in making as many tipplers as we do te totalers, thus neutralizing our efforts. In accordance witb the provisions ol the third resolution, the following committee) was appointed: Jacob Consor, ltaj. Magooe, C.Beal, B. W. Ryan aad J. B. McClane.
