"I had a dry scaly humor for vears,
and suffered terribly ; and, as mv broth
er and sister were similarly afllicted, I
presume the maladj is hereditary. Last
winter, Dr. Tyron, (of Fernandina,
Fla.,) recommended me to take Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, and continue it for a year.
For five months I took it daily. I have
not had a hleinish upon my body for the
last three months." T. E. "Wiley, 14G
Chambers st.,CNew York City.
" Last fall rmd winter I was troubled
with a dull, heavy pain in my side. I
did not notice it much at first, but it
gradually grew worse until it became
almost unbearable. During tlfo latter
part of this time, disorders of thestom
ach xfud liver increased my troubles. I
began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and,
after faithfully continuing the use ot
this medicine for some months, the paiq
disappeared and I was completely
curedv" Mrs. Augusta A. Furbush

Extracts Prom S. 0. Damon's Diary
The other day says C. H. S. in the
Snuday Call. I came in possesaion
of some interesting copie3 of The
Friend and Tho Polynesian, a noted
Hawaiian newspaper, of 1819. They
were sent here from a Honolulu jank
shop, because they contained portions
of the log book of an ex-consul and
seaman's chaplain, recording his im
pressions of California " and Oregon
in that eventful year. This is the
somewhat noted diary of Samuel 0.
Damon, and as it preserves many
notes of the early history and adven
tures of the Pacifio coast in a form
inaccessible to the general reader,
I make a brief synopsis of its con cen
tents: Damon's vessel was the steamship
Massachusetts, which left Honolulu
April 17, 1849. Captain Wood, the
commander, was a Harvard graduate,
a classmate of Prescott, the historian
of the conquest of Mexico. The Co
lumbia river bar was crossed M8y
8th. General Adair was colleotor of
the port. -So many Oregonians had
gone to the California mines that
there was danger of Indian troubles,
so that two companies of United
States troops, twhich were on board
of the Massacliusetts, were doubly
welcome. Mr. Damon visited the
"settlement on the Clatsop plains,"
where some thirty families of pio
neers had just built the first ship of
"the district, the Clatsop Clipper,
schooner of seventy tons, for the ban
Francisco trade.
The population of the entire terri
tory of Oregon was but 9,083, and
there wore only ten counties. East
ern Oregon and upper Oregon, now
Washington, contained only Indians
and a few trading posts. At the time
that Mr. Damon visited Fort Van
couver, the famous headquarters of
the stores and offices of tho Hudson
Bay company, Mr. Douglass, long
the Pacific coast head of the com
pany, was removing to Vancouver's
island.
May loth Mr. Damon, judge Bry
ant, tho territorial judge, and Cap
tain Crosby of the bark Joulon hired
four Indians, who rowed them from
Vancouver to Portland. Captain
Crosby, in 1845, built the first house,
a log store and dwelling, in Portland;
in 1815 there were about thirty build-
ugij lUcro oui tha tmnn Rnntninpd
about one hundred inhabitants. May
22d Mr. Damon started on horsebaok
for Oregon City, and a few miles
from Portland a "pair of dark-brown
wolves" crossed his pathway through
the forest. Dr. McLaughlin's settle
ment of 1829, which in 1810 contained
only one log hut, had more than a
hundred log cabins in 1819.
During a journey to Salem Mr.
Damon saw an old Indian woman,
the wifo of a French Canadian on the
prairie, who proved to be the woman
described in Irving's "Astoria," when
she accompanied Hunt's party over
the BockieB in 1811. "Old Dorion,
the trapper," her husband, was Hunt's
interpreter and guide; his father was
with Lewis and Clarke in their great
journey of 1805. On this French
prairie many old servants and hunt
ers of the Hudson Bay company had
settled down on land claims.
Mr. Damon found the curious lan
guage of the voyageurs and Indians,
the "jargon," as it was called, one of
the most striking features of Oregon
life in 1819. It was "used at that
time by many of the whites, especi
ally by the old settlers. One word
he found in cpnstant use, the word
"cultus," taken to signify worthless
ness or inefficiency. Americans were
"Bostons," chain was "chinkamin,"
handkerchief was "hankachim,"
molasses was "lo-ma-las," to be angry
was to be "sal-Inks."
