D., of Detroit, gives u resume of the laws on the above subject in the American Agriculturist for June, fiom which we extract the follewing: ll is a general doctrine of law in this country that the land in the highway belongs to the owtiers, of land lying along each side. Willi a few exceptions the Ameri can farm extends to the middle of the road, and the public only has a right to pass and repass there m j'li orderly manner, and the right to keep the way in repair. - Every other use of the highway that does' not interfere with the public right, belongs to the farmer owning the adjacent land. He owns the soil, grass, trees, stones and gravel, and everything upon the surface or under it, and may use them all in any way that does uot affect the public right of passage, and the law will protect his ownership in them just as much as though they were inside his own fence. No other person has any more right to pasture his stock there than in inclosed lands; nor can he hitch his horse to a tree there without being liable for the trespass, especially if his horse should gnaw the tree or do other damage; he can, in fact, only pass orderly along. As to road fences, the laws do not, with the possible exception of those of New York, above noted, impose any obligation; and the farmer may, if he chooses, remove such fences, without impairing his right of action against the owners of any domestic animals that enter and do damage by that means. If a person lets his cattle go in the highway, he is liable for the trespasses they commit by simply being there unlawfully; for the grass they consume, for the injury they occasion to the sod, or by barking the trees, and for any other damage they may do. 1 f, while there, they hook or kick, or bite any person lawfully using the way, he would be liable for the liiiury. A man who turned his horse into a public place where children were playmcr, one of whom began switching the horse, which turned and kicked and killed the child, was convict ed of manslaughter. Notwithstanding the fact that the farmer owns the land of the road, he cannot use it himself for any purpose which at all inter feres with the public right there. lie can not put his woodpiles, wagons or pigpens there; and if he does and the traveler runs into them in the night and is injured, he would not only be liable for the private damages sustained (Linsley vs. Bushncll, lo Conn., 225), but he may be indicted for obstruct inga public way. We believe the above may be read with profit by some of our Clatsop county" residents. Under the great stream of the St. Lawrence, near Montreal, it is intended to carry a tunnel connect ing a line of railway on the north with one on the south side of the river. The length of this tunnel will be fully 15,000 feet. The deepest point of the tunnel gradi ent will be one hundred and sev enty feet below the level of the river banks. The. tunnel is, says the Builder, to be completed within three years. The contractor, Mr" Roillard, of Montreal, has under taken to execute the work for 3,005,000. They've got the telegraph through to Jerusalem now, and if the miracle business were in prog ress there at present we should have a special giving full particu lars the next day. JSostpn Post. Albanians. The Albanians have always been a fierce and warlike race, and their Turkish conqueror were never j !ihlr fr luin.r f liom intn nnmnlnto I """O WW...J..-W.W subjection. About half the pop ulation of their country are Mo hammedans, the rest being divided between the Greek and Latin churches. The conversion of those j who profess the religion of the Arabian prophet has been very imperfect, and ehielry induced by political motives. Out of the same family some will go to the moque and othcis to the church : and, with the Turks, infidel and Alban ian are terms nearly .synonymous. The native Albanian is of middle stature; his face is oval, with high cheek bones; his neck is long and his chest full and broad. 1 lis air is erect and majetic to a degree that never fails U strike the trav eler, lie goes constantly armed, and their are few Albanians wiio have not, in the prime of their life, belonged o some of ihe numerous bands of robbets who infest the mountains of their native country, of Thessaly and of Macedonia. This occupation carries with it no disgrace among the inhabitants, and it is common with the Alban ian to mention circumstances which occurred "when he was a robber." When the business becomes dull the Albanian robber generallytakes to a military life, and it matters little to him under what Hag he enlists. In the Crimean war many Albanian chiefs fought in the Rus sian army against the allied forces of England FYancc and Turkey. Unlike the Turk, the Albanian is gay, lively and active, fond of amusement, delighting in all kinds of entertainments. As a race, the men display .a greater degree of contempt for women than is usual even among the most barbarous nations. The' regard them as in ferior animals, and treat them" accordingly. 33ut in the country districts of Albania the women are not confined or veiled, as is cus tomary in strictly Mohammedan countries. How the Schooner Got Its Name The year 1713 was a great era in American naval annals. That year Capt. Andrew Robinson built the first schooner ever seen. This was at Gloucester. As she glided into the water a by.-.taiider cried: "Look how she schoons!" Catch ing at the word, Capt." Robinson replied, "A schooner let her be!" The new rig came at once into wide acceptance. The coroner's jury continues to maintain its fearful and wonderful ascendancy over all other juries known to the law or the prophets. In a recent drowning case in Penn sylvania, the jury solemnly brought in the following verdict: " Elmira Showers came to her death b be ing there alone in a creek called Cocalico creek, herself voluntarily and feloniously drewned: and so the jurors aforesaid upon their oaths aforesaid, say that the said Elmira Showers, in manner and form aforesaid, then and there, herself voluntarily and feloniously as a felon of herself, killed and murdered, against the peace and dignity of the Commonwealth of 1 Pennsylvania."

At last accounts there were U,000 applicants for 1,400 new clerkships created by congress, and new ones coming in at the rate al 500 a day. If ymi want to make a man your enemy tell him that he don't know anything about ahorse. The less he really knows the stronger will be his enmity. It takes three men and a sail boat and 100 feet of rope and a ten acre lot lull of cus-words to capture a .00 pound sea turtle and tow him ashore. Doctors now t?ay that boiied cow's milk is not good for the babies it is better raw. The doctors are right: a raw cow gives better milk than a boiled one. A company of settlers in jiam ing their new town called it Dic tionary, as they said, "That's the only place where peace, prosperity and happiness are always found." There is a red-headed young Indian squaw and papoose in Uarson,.Xo. The novelty causes much comment and inquiry as to where the Mormon bishop has gone. A hat flirtation, is the latest idiocy among the girlrf. There's no way that a man can wear a hat that doesn't mean something, and the only way you're safe is to go bareheaded. The amount of heat radiated i from the sun is so ureal that if the earth were a mass of coal and could be supplied by contract to the solar furnace men, the supply would last them just thirty-six hours. C. L. Blakeslee, who runs a mill near Union, lately saw a salmon try to jump the dam and striking the water it was thrown on the bank. He put up a plank on the bank, to prevent their rolling back, and captures about fifteen a night, i which sell at fifty cents each.
