SlWanSie.N

Our columns are so crowded this week,
that reply to our Wapsenonoc friend must
necessarily be brief. lie wields vigorous
pen, but he has been misinformcd in some
matters, and we proceed to correct him.
We do not doubt that our correspondent
understood somebody to guess that the rail-
road stock would pay thirty to sixty per
cent, but it must have been somo irrespon-
sible person. The Lasalle and Chicago
railroad stock commanded five per cent.
premium before the road was finished.
That was paying road. Ours will be a
paying road, also, but even il the stock
should not command premium, if it should
only sell at par, the people of this county
ought not to regret the small amount Of
money necessary to pay interest on tho
bonds, when they have every reason to be-
lieve that in three years after the railroads
are commenced, real estate throughout the
county will be enhanced fifty to one hun
dred per cent. in value. This consideration
and those Of kindred nature, and lot the
per cent. alone upon invested capital, make
it the interest Of every nan having real
estate, or who is engaged in business, to
render material aid in the construction of
railroads influencing the general prosperity
Of the county.
The reason railroad tax was levied last
July, was, that it was supposed some of tn :
bonds would be issued last Fall, and it was
thought better to have money in the treasury
to pay the interest on the bonds which
would accrue on the LIST of January. The
bonds would probably not sell SO well if no
provision were made for the payment of
interest, and thus Muscatine county might
lose eight or ten thousand dollars, without
bencfting anybody except some individuals
who would thereby save one years interest
on two mills on the dollar. This is all. Cor
the tax paid this year, will that much lessen
the amount of tax to be paid next year.
1t is true that some gentlemen of this city
did talk of buying up large amounts of the
county bonds at par. They did not do so
but they subscribed equal amounts in
private subscriptions. In this way sew
enty thousand dollars have been sub.
srribed In this city. Amt tina, pretty
we'll. Mr.. "Wapsie /? -
Nobody was ever sent from here 10
Washington TO interfere with or try to
preven. grants for other railroads.
There are other things in this COM
municaiion we would like to notice if
we had the space, but must defer the
subject for the present.

OREGON ITEMS.

We arc indebted to our friend, w. N. BYsRs. for
Oregon papers to the 10Th December, from which we
CLEAN the following items:
Hon. John Davis, the newly-appointed Governor,
had arrived, and was we'll received.
Gov. Stevens, Of the exploring expedition which
started from St Paul, had arrived at olympia in adj
vance of the company. lie was to organize the Ter.
riterial government Of Washington at once.
In "a hours on the 9Th NV, seven inches Of rain
fell IN level at Portland.
Game-sueh as bears. deer, panthers, geese, ducks,
swans, &c.--vas abundant.
The Indians were peaceable.
Rich mines reported to hsve been discovered on

The country is much like thst described on my why

The soil Of the Willamet, Valley, is gcr erslly
good, producing excellent crops of wheat, oats, rye,
barley, and almost all kinds Of vegetables-yet it
will not compare With the rch loose soil Of the Iowa
and Illinois prarics.
Until within tho last few days, there has not bren
much rain in the Willamette Valley this fall, just
enough to start the grass and prepare the ground for
the sowing of fall grains. Farmers are improving
their time, by sowing large fields of wheat. WNB.

be aware that as general rue in al markets, the

the price OF bushe Of wheat and when the Quota

in favor of the wheat. Now who has bought n .ur Of
