FROM OREGON


 The Bloomington Iowa. Herald says = We have been permitted to make the follow ing extracts from letter written by Wm. T. Perry, formerly of this county, to Messrs Collier and Sherey. It is dated Oregon City, March 30, 1843:
 ''l arrived at the settlement in Oregon on the 18th September, where have remained ever since, at work at my trade, Carpenter as was, of course, compelled to, after spend- Ing all had to get here; but 1 have done well, being How worth more than when left Iowa. We have not been sick a day since we left the States. Hannah Abel was married in two weeks after we arrived here ske has done we'll. Quick business that great country that for unmarried gals. Now to the country which is not as l expected to find It. It is rough aud broken, and gener- ally heavy timbered, principally with fir, yellow pine, cedar, hemlock, spruce, oak, ash, and maple. It is we'll watered, and about one-tenth prairie of excellent quality The tmbered land is also excellent for farm ing. In the streams there is an abundance of fish, among which are the finest salmon in the world.
 ''fhere is enough to live on in this coun- try. The inhabitants are generally good far mers, raise large quantities of grain, and have from 40 to 100 head of cattle, 20 to 50 head ol hogs, and horses without number Clotf- ing IS cheaper here than in Iowa. There Is nothing to be found in your stores but what we have an abundance of, and at cheaper rate, as they are brought here free of dutv.- Nothing will bear exportation from Iowa except good rifles. They are worth abou $50 in this country Good COWS will sell at from $50 to $50 per head.
 Several of our company are dissatisfied with the country, and contemplate going tc California this spring. For my part, am we'll satisfied, and expect to end my days ir Oregon. This place, Oregon city,l is situ. ated at the head of navigation, and at the foo of Wallamut Falls, one of the greatast water powers in the world It contains twelve dwelling-houses, three stores, one black smiths shop, one cooper shop two saw mill: and one grist mill are in operation, and an other of three run of stones is to be erected this summer-I get S3 day for my work and tools furnished. Common labor is worth $l 75 per day, without board. No ardent spirits ill the country.

PROSPECTUS
Congressional DEadisOnian.

yE1HE approaching session of Congress will doubt
 1 less, b. the most important one, in many re- spccts in the annals of American Politics. The occurrences will be intensely interesting to every citizen, and we shall make extensive arrangements to spread before readers the earliest most elabo rate and most correct accounts of every thing that tfauspircs at the capitol. The proc eedinys of Con grcss will be minutey attended to, and speeches de- iiyered in both Houses given at length.
 Tine approaching Congress will diiter in many re- spaets from any other ever convened. The Execl- tive will be firm and just and yet courteous and con cliaory o all the parties that compose the Congress- so that in the political conflicts which may be anti cipated, tie PEOPi E'S interests may not be alto gsther neglected. One party will have the aseen- dencv in thc Senatc--thc other in the House, while the President will strive, BEHALF OF THE couN- TRY, to harmonize their legislative action.
 Congress will find that, under the present Execu- tye the revenues ben5 in responsible hands, no de- i falcatons have occurred and that the agents en- trusted with the public funds, have mcritsd the con- 1 idence of both parties. II will md tariff some- | wha. imperfect, and differing from the one recom- mended by MT. Tyler passed ih the noase py tna l casting votes of twenty-onc democrats-thIty:fre l Clay whigs voting against 1t; while in the Senate four or five democrats voted for it, and twice that 1 number of whigs against it. It will find that the currency of the country Is in sounder condition than it has been for twenty years and that too ri opt Bunk, or anything of kindred nature; while the five millions of Treasury notes authorized to be issued, bearing six per cent, taken by the go- yernment creditors ,rioa any interest ct aH twill find demagoguss aad political managers busy cheat iny the people usual, preaching distribution as- sumption of State dsb.s, bank, &c. But they can never make much progress while MT. Tyler IS Pres. iden All these exciting subjects will be agitated for the benefit of Presidential aspirants., At such time, 1t is necessary that the ciuzons in every section of the Union should know what IS done by their representatives, and be acquainted with the and dsga oe dsS1'ss s;'1 ana dnSs move e Ionr as well as intensely excting and hence the in- ducsment to subscribe for the Madisonian, by Ae year

Bankrupt Law was repealed, and the com munity at large were deprived of its common benefits which was urged as arguments for the adoption of such law. The public lands after having been given away were taken back again. The Independent Trea- sury was broken down and nothing created i'll Its place; the finances are left in deplo- rable condition, the Government in debt over twenty millions of dollars, and the tariff so constructed as to reduce the revenue and in- Jure commerce. its purpose, through it's ex- istenee, seems to have been to defeat public expectations, to destroy the public interest, 10 do anything which would baflle the ad- ministration, and make it the bye-word and the subject of derision to the people. After aH its miserable and picked Schemes, # Inns succeeded alone in mahing use1f truly con- tempfi6lc, and the only eradication the peo- pie ever experienced from it, is that it has at last ceased to exist.

Murder ct Yale College.-The Baltimore Republican Argus, of 24th ult., says:
 "A few evenings ago, some of the students at Tale College, at New Haven, Connecticut, were behaving themselves in an improper manner, by paying their "respects to the Freshmen,' which is contrary to the rules of the Institution. One of the tutors, fine promising young man named Thomas Breed Dwight, son of James Dwight, recently a resident of Richmond, Va, in the perform ance of his duty, interfered and arrested Lewis Fassitt, and while in the act of draw ing him to the light, the latter stabbed him in the groin in three places, very nearly sever ing the femoral artery. Mr. Dwight linger- ed until the 20th inst, when he expired The murderer then escaped to Philadelphia, and was arrested by officer Whistner on Sa- turday evening, who took him before Record CT Vaux, and after hearing, the prisoner was committed to await requisition from the Governor of Connecticut Subsequently. he was brought before Judge King on Ha- beas Corpus, and we understand, was admit ted to 5000 bail. Mir. Dwight graduated in the year lS40, at Yale College-was in the Fist year of his age-and while his hopes were brightest, he fell victim to the assas- sins dagger. This is another warning to those carrying deadly weapons'

HorrM yMurder-The lIagerstown (Md.) ] Herald of ofFreedom, of Thursday, has the fol- lowing account of a horrid murder commit- ted near Frederick, on Saturday last. The murderer, it will be seen, has been arrested:
 We were last evening informed by gen- tleman direct from Frederick, that drover, name not remembered, was murdered on Sa- turday last, in open day, on the road leading from that place to Hanover, Pa. When found he was lying in the road perfectly dead, his head and body pierced in number of places with large buckshot, and his pockets rihed; he was taken to the nearest tavern, where 1t was ascertained that he had large sum of money in his possession.
 During the day foot-pad, an ill-looking fellow, stopped at the tavern, who was im- mediately suspected of having had hand in the murder, and upon being arrested and searched, and 5000 of the unfortunate dro- ver's money found in his bundle, confessed that he perpetratcd the deed He stated that he was goaded to it by the relentless bangs of hunger, that he supposed his victim to have but few dollars, and that he shot him for this small sum to rescue himself from the horrors of starvation. 4 poor excuse for murder in this land of plenty

Attempted Suicide.-Andrew Howard, the unfortunate young man who is confined in the aiI in this town, for the murder of Miss Phoebe Hanson, few weeks ago at Roches- ter, has made several attempts to commit su- icide since his confinement. On Tuesday last, however, he came very near being suc- cessful in hanging himself, as when found, life was nearly extinct. He is now more se- curely confined, and will probably have no opportunity again to make attempts upon his own life His trial will come on at the Ja- nuary term of the common pleas court in this town.

This prejudice being once removed. there IS no doubt that large and profitable trade will be carried on. The statement in the Journal of Commerce is as follows:
