CoLoNIzATloN-TuE OREGON.


The emigration to Oregon which took
place in the spring Of the present year
is one of the marked features Of our times.
No enterprise of the kind OF equal mogni-
Judo or difficulty, or likely TO be attended
with equally important results, has been
undertaken on this continent during the
last or tho present century.
In fact, whether these people design II
or not, they have gone TO found new En-
piro, or rather Republic, on the shores Of
tho Pacific. Tho omigrants made then
rendezvous at Fort independence, on the
western frontier of Missouri, in April, pro,
yidod for march of fifteen hundred miles
through country unlnhabltod, except by
rowing tribes Of sovages, or the scarcely
loss wild trNppers OF those regions. In
addition to the supplies for three months
march through the wilderness, they had tc
take with them all the stores and equip,
mcnls necessary for n young colony
Broad and rapid streams lay in their route
and large tract OF desert country, before
they could reach the mountains which d.
vido tho tributaries of the Columbia from
those Of the Mississippi. Neither the sa.
wages nor the bands of trappers could rem.
der so large body any assistance in the
way of supplies, and both would be apt &c
look upon them with distrust, if not hos
Utility.
From the time of the Phnnicians, the
earliest colonizors, there has never been q
colony despatched overland for such al
immense distance. Tho whole exhibition
seems more like romance than an under
taking in sober reality. One unacquaint
cd with the Western character, cannot per.
Coiyo any adequate motive for this toilsomC
and hazardous undertaking, Lands arc

nROSPECTUS OF THE CONGRESS
SIGNAL GLOBE & APPENDIX.

kkOSGBC / US OF THE COINOhEo-
SIGNAL GLOBE & APPENDIX.
These works have such wide crcula-
ton, and have been SO universally APP
proved and sought after by the public, that
we deem it necessary only in this pros
pectus 10 say that they will be continued
at the next session of Congress, and TO
state, succinctly, their contents, the form
in which they will be printed, and the
prices OF them.
The Congressional Globe is made up
Of the daily proceedings of the two Houses
of Congress. The speeches of the mem
bers are condensed to bring them into a
readable length. All the resolutions, Of
tered, or motions made, are given in the
movers own words; and the yeas and
nays on all the important questions. 1t is
printed with small type--brever and
noDpariel-on double royal sheet, in
quarto form, each number containing Is
royal quarto pages.
The Appendix is made up of the Presi-
dents annual message, the reports of the
principal officers of the government that
accompany it, and all the long speeches
of members Of Congress, written out or
revised by themselves, It is printed in
the same form as the Congressional
Globe, and usually makes about the same
number of pages.
Now there is no source but the Con-
gressional Globe and Appendix from
which person can obtain a full history
Of the proceedings of Congress. 1t is
now recognized, by resolution, as the au-
thenlic report of proceedings, the earlier
volumes having been purchased for the
use Of members, and for the Compression.
al library. Gales 81 Seaton's Register of
Debates, which contained history, was
suspended in the year 1887, and has not
since been resumed. 1t cost about five
times as much for a session as the Con-
gressional Globe and Appendix, and did
not contain on equal amount of matter,
great portion of the current proceedings
being omitted.
Complete indexes to both the Congress
sional Globe and the Appendix are print
ed at the close of each session, and sent
to all subscribers. for them.
The reports of the Congressional Globe
and Appendix are not in the least degree
affected by the party bias of the editors.
They are given precisely as written out
by the reporters and the members them.
selves, and are subject to the revision
and correction of the speakers.
The approach Of a Congress which will
discuss for the American people all the
most important questions ever entertained
by the national conAcils, and new and ex-
Iraordinary measures never before fully
upon, has induced the publishers
Of the Globe TO make greater and better
than heretofore for reporting
and publishing the speeches and proceed
ngs of the next session.
All persons who may desire either or
both of these works, should subscribe for
hem by the 10th of December else they
nay fail to get them. People are still
for The Congressional Globe
or the last session of Congress, and we
nave not been able TO furnish a complete
copy of it since early in the session.
We will send the Globe for the APP
preaching session to any person who will
'eturn to us all the numbers of it for the |
asst session. We usually print double as

RECElpT FOR CURING HAMS.

We have been handed the following re-
eeipt for curing hams by one of the mos
eminent practitioners in this city, the sa.

therefore publish it, although it may moi
be a new ingredient in the receipt to others
In Cincinnati, where large quantities Of
hams are annually cured, pepper, aIlspice
cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, and other little
ingredients are usually added but to the
receipt:
Cover tho bottom Of the cask with coarse
SALT lay on the hams with the smooth or
skin side down, sprinkle over with fine
salt then another layer of hams, and so
continue until the cask is full. This ought
to be of the larger kind, A cask holding
Ga gallons is small enough, and it would
bo better if it held 100 gallons, Make
brine in the following proportionsi 6 gal
Ions water, 8 lbs salt, 4 lbs. brown sugar,
8 on. sntpetro, l On. sagrolus. Scald
and scum, and when cold pour the brine
into the casIS until the hams are complete
Iy covered. The hams should remain in
this pickle at least three months, and lit.
tic longer would do them no harm.

who want the Congressional Globe, or the
Appendix, must subscribe and send tho
money for them by the 10Th Of December,
else they will not probably get them,
Persons subscribing for the Congress
sional Globe, or the Appendix, should be
careful to name the State, as well as the
post office to which they wish the paper
sent, as there are many post offices Of tho
same name in different States-Paris, for
example. We received money from Par
is, in one OF the States, many years ago,
and we have not been able, up to this day,
to find out from what State it was sent;
and the person who sent it has lost his
money. The rules of the General Post
Office requires the post masters TO endorse
the name of the State on every letter, but
many of them neglect to do it.
Every man in the country who desires
to be informed of the public history or the
public men of the country, should read the
! debates of Congress. Our foreign affairs
and the domestic concerns of every Sec
ton of the country pass under review in
Congress. The discussions embrace men
and things, present and past history; and
the best faculties and highest attainments
are directed to their calculation. 1t is
impossible to be fitted for the political
arena without an intimate knowledge Of
the annual Congressional debates.
