of The 4ih instt says:
About five hundred Oregon emigrants
have passed through our town ihis week,
ON their way 10 the place of general rendez-
vous. Among the number, we notice one
gentleman who has five negroes, which he
intends taking with him. We understand
that they were unwilling that he should
sell them or leave them in this slate, stating
to their master shat they wished TO go with
him to his new home--tflat if Oregon
should turn oul 10 be slaveholling country
they still wanted to be his rvants-and if
il should prove 10 be otherwise, they sill
wished to live in bis family and serve him
still. Under these circumstances, he could
not hesitate tn take his old and faithful
servants alcog with him, which he intends
doing.

JupaE EARLE. Is. NO MoaE

II becomes our melancholy duty to re-
cord the sudden and unexpected doath Of
The Hon. B.:J. Earle, who departed this
life on Friday morning last. Il will be
recollec,ea by most Of our readers that The
Judge received shock of paralysis las,
Spring, which SO disabled his physical
powers, ;bat he resigned his seal upon the
Bench,on The meeting The last Legisla-
lure; aud no man ever left the high and
responsible Office which he held, whose
public loss was more sincerely deplored
by allsclasses of sorietJ. To barely say
that. .hewas an upright Judge," wouldbe
injuslice-he was more-a ripe and pro.
found scholar, possessing clear and dis,
criminaiing mind, and an able and pro-.
found Jurist, 20. surpassed 10 all the re-
quisitcs Tor the station to which he has been
called. However, il irisunnecessary for us
to write au eulogy upon the character and
qualifications oflhe deceased, even if we
were capable:o Of doing The subjec, Justice
and more particularly, a slight tribute of
respect 10 his memory will be found under
tho obituary headin another column.
Judge Earle had spent theslast seven
months Of his life in Florida and the Island
of Cuba; whittier he had repaired under
the vain hope ofregaining, al least in
some degree, his former health. He re-
turned to this place on the Monday pre-
vious 10 his death, and his friends were
.pained 10 perceive that be had obtained
no benefit from his journey. About Two
hours before his last and fatal attack, we
calledupon him at his room, aud couyer-
.sed with him nearly an hour. He re-
marhed that he was bot rs well as usual,
but believed he should feel better upon
going down stairs, which he did soon after
We left. His mental faculties appeared
as brilliant as they were in his palmiest
days. He was deeply interested in the
annexalion of Texas to this Government,
and expressed himself warmly upon the
subject. He said he considered il 'sthe
most important question which had been
asitaled since the declaration Of war in
1872" He asked what arrangements had
been made for calling an Annexation
meeting al this place on Sale-day next;
and upon being informed that call of the
Kind would appear in The next paper, he
wished to know if any names were attach.
ed to the notice; and upon our answering
in the negative, and that we had no lime
10 obtain signatures, kas The paper was
nearly ready for The press be authorized
us TO place his name to the article, but we
though, it unnecessary. We mention
these facts, as IT was, probably the last pub
lie affair that occupied his mind, and to
show that severe affliction and absence
from his native land, had no, jimmed, the
spiendor of his intellect, or allayed the
doeP interest he always felt for the wei
fare ofhis beloved country.

other effect upon our market than to render it
