" the best and most numerously attended

abundently testified. The exhibition Of

Oregon.


We make the following extract from a
letter, under date, Washington city, March
23l from Arson Dart, Superintendent In.
dian affairs for Oregon, TO J. A. Harris,
Editor Of the Cleveland Herald
regret, extremely, that my time is so
taken up while ia this city, that cannot 60
as much into detail on this subject as
otherwise would he inclined to do, as ! have
good reason TO believe that there are but
very few white men living that have seen
as much of Oregon az have.
1t was believed when left, that there
would, within one year, be inhabitants
enough to entitle Oregon to become State.
Steps have already been taken TO this end.
Oregon, spoken Of as whole, is an open
prairie country, without timber. Still, all
that part Of it lying west Of the Cascade
mountains is perhaps three-fourths Of ii
thicky covered with timber, growing very
tall and straight; it is mostly a species Of
fir. There IS much white cedar some
yellow pine; no white pine.
he soil Is very good for wheat aid other
grains - corn eXcepted--as.N well as for fruit
Of every kind that will grow in a Northern
climate.
The prospects fer the farmers in Oregon
are better than ia aay other portion Of coun'
try with which ! am acquainted. Ia short
labor Of every kind commands high prices
There are, nevertheless. many that are idle
in the towns, such as doctors, lawyers
clerks, spectators and gamblers. Talent
ed lawyers however are doing well.
The mercantile business IS everywhere
overdone large quantities of goods sold al
auction IN Francisco aud California, are
daily shipped TO Oregon, for less, in many
cases, than the same could be bought for II
New York. Besides this large cargoe;
are sent there by Eastern shippers, aud sold
at ruiuous losses to the owners As soor
as the merchants IN Oregon are permitted
to order the goods that are wanted in th,
country, then aud not ill then, will a heal
thy state Of things exist connected with mer
chandiSe.
The lumber business is of immense value
to Oregon Say to your friend from Maine
that persons well acquainted with saw mills
who are willing to work, will do well there
The wafer power Of Oregon is immeuse-I
is greater, | think, than that OF any STATE
IA the Union. On the large streams, how
ever, II Is very expensive using 1t, on &C
count Of the great rise and fall IN thos
streams m the rainy aud dry seasons. Tn
present number OF saw-mllls ia Oregon
about one hundred
There are no first-rate Touring mills, a
though there are one OF two that cost enoug
10 be good
Large quantities of Hour and potatoes al
sent 10 California from Oregon, as well 4
immense numbers of hogs and poultry, b.
sides butter and eggs are items in their e.
ports.
The climate Of Oregon is more mild tina
any part Of the United States in the san
latitude There was no snow or freezin
weather last winter. The grass was gree
all winter, and cattle are in better condIlic
in the spring Than IN the fall before; at
this too, without food, except grass. Hu
dreds of thousands of horses are raised
Upper Oregon, without ever tasting al
other food excepting grass.

the thoughts of others and derive benefit
from their experience and your own. This

is small business; too small for an intelligent

EVERY DAY,-A good word is one
which does some one good it may be
word of teaching, a word of warning,
or word of truth and love. Speak one
such word at least every day.
Our days are few at best. certainly
no one of them should pass without an
opening of the lips for God. Who can
tell the effects of a single sentence, ut
tered with faith and prayer. 1t may
reach into eternity. As wave moves
wave in the ocean, so one word of grace
may reach from mind to mind, and thus
be producing effects long after the tongue
which uttered it shall have returned to
dust. Never despair of being useful SO
long as you have the gift Of speech. If
you can nothing else, you may at least
repeat some blessed text of scripture !;
this may save a soul. That child, that
servant, that visitor, that stranger may
praise God in heaven for the truth heard
from you. Let your speech be season.
ed with salt" Keep the heart full and
YOU will have something to say. "Out
of the abundance of the heart the mouth
speaketh." Every day the ungodly are
utiering fatal words, kindling bad pas
sions and destroying souls. Every day,
therefore, all Christians should be saying
something for Christ. Many time,
through grace, single saying has been
blessed TO the awakening Of a soul. Pray
Tor help to devise and utter such things
every day Of your life, as may lead those
who hear you TO faith in your Re-
deemer.
