The State Of Oregon.

The bill which passed the House of
Representatives on Monday last provides
that the people of the Territory of Ore
gon be authorized to form a constitution
and state government, and be admitted
into the Union on an equal footing with
the original States in all respects whatev-
er, by the name of the State of Oregon.
The usual courts are to be established,
and until another census and apportion-
ment the new State is to be entitled to
one representative in the Congress of the
United States. Sections Is and 36 il
every township of the public lands in
said State are to be granted for the use
of schools; two entire sections are given
for the use and support of q University
and ten entire sections are to be appro.
priated for completing the public build
ings of said State or for the erection oi
others. Five per cent. of the net pro.
ceeds of the sales of the public lands
lying within the State are to be paid to
the State for the purpose of making pub
lie roads and canals in the same, as the
Legislature thereof shall direct, upon
condition that there be no interference
with the primary disposal of the soil
within the same, and that no tax is to be
laid upon the lands of the United States,
and no higher tax upon the nonresident
proprietors than upon residents.-NQtiOn-

The Advautaees of Flannel.

" Health forthe Million" says, FLANNEL

the day time, both in summer and winter.
1t does not absorb moisture like linen,
which becomes wet, and increases the lia-
bility to cold. It should be removed on
going to bed, for the sake of cleanliness,
the skin being usually covered with g
greasy secretion, derived from the solids
of the perspiration. This isnot absorbed
by flannel; but by wearing calico night
shirt it is entirely removed. For the
sake of warmth, loose flannel jacket
may be worn over it. I wish particu-
larly to recommend this plan for general
adoption. have found it very servicea-

nat;ent Columbus, who waited all his
mortality for justice, viii wait part of
his immortality also. We viii call upon
those rich benefciaries who found asy-
huns, hospitals, Lowell Institutions, and
Astor Libraries upon wealthy bachelors,
and wealthy maidens, to make the State
their heirs, as they were wont to do in
Rome. The rich shall give of their rich
es; the merchants of their commerce /;

needle woman win give, and the children
win have Cent Society. If, really, the
thing could come to negotiation, and q
price were named, do not think that
any price, founded upon any estimate
that figures could fairly represent, would
be unmanageable. Every man in this
land would give weeks work to dig
away this accursed mountain of slavery,
and force it forever out of the world
Gentlemen, think in bad times we must
rely upon these simple truths. Men are
beginning to suspect that. in spite Of all
chance and change, Divine Providence
does rule in the world, and bring victory
to the right, and this by every new crea-
ton. To this shameful statute opPosi-
ton will never end-so long as the grass
grows, so long as there is summer and
winter, so long IS there are men-so
long viii sentiment condemn it. You
cannot educate men, or raise them to any
mental power, without their discovery OF
wrong. We do not suffer by defeat. There
is longevity in our cause. 1t can well

men who in the very place and time en-
tered their protest. for themselves and
their country. are justified, and the law
is condemned.
The mission of liberty was one WORTHY
of this great country; but slavery had.
through the stronger personality of the
southern people, managed to rob the peo-
pie Of their liberty, through their re-
spect for law and statute. The people
have the most abject regard for the shad-
Ows of forms, but are swindled out OF
their liberty. The duty of the people
was now to make liberty the great duty
to which all lesser duties tend; and no
citizen could go astray who. on every
question, leans to the side of general lib
eTty.
The duty of society in view of slavery,
he said. was to negotiate for the freedom
of the slaves by purchase. Itwould now
cost some two thousand millions of dol
lars; but tax for this object would be
enthusiastically paid. He would not &C.
knowledge the justice eff owning slaves.
but would recognize the peculiar position
of the STAKEHOLDER, and adopt this. be-
cause it is the only practicable and inno-
cent course.
We may in bad times, said Mr.. Emer-
son. in conclusion. always rely upon a
Divine Providence which shall rule a!
last. The opposition to these shameful
statutes would never cease while they
continued to exist. Freedom has longev.
ity and can afford TO wait for ages; but il
must ultimately triumph. The stars Of
Heaven and the courses of mind would
finally be the emaneipator of the slave.

Expanding the Chest.

Those in wealthy circumstances, OF
who pursue sedentsry employment with
in doors. generally use their lungs but
very little, breathe but very little into the
chest, and thus. independently of posi-
tons, contract a wretchedly narrow, small
chest, and lay the foundation for the loss
Of health and beauty. All this can be
perfectly obviated by a little attention 20
the manner of breathing. Rscollect, the
lungs are like a bladder in their construc-
ton, and can be stretched open to double
their ordinary size, with perfect immuni-
ty from consumption. The agent, and
the only agent required. is the eemmon
ar we breathe, supposing. however, that
no obstacle exists. externally to the chest,

Emigration to Texas.

The Galveston News, of the 10Th, says.
" Never have We before heard of such
vast crowds of persons coming to oul
State. Allthe great thoroughfares through
the country are reported to be literally
thronged with immigrant wagons. A
gentleman Just from Mississippi, over.
land, says that at Rodney the steam fer.
ry was employed night and day in taking
emigrants across the Mississippi. He
says that fully one thousand persons
crossed during the short time he was de-
layed there, and that the stream of per-
sons arriving and destined for Texas was
uninterrupted. Another gentleman who
crossed the Trinity at Robbins ferry, q
few days ago, says he was there five days
waiting for his turn to cross. These em-
igrants are said to be mostly planters of
wealth and intelligence. Another gen.
tleman from the Trinity confirms these
reports as regards the extraordinary
amount of immigration this year. and ex-
presses the opinion that this years immi-
grafton will equal all that has preceded
during the last five years."

Egousnn.


Life with most men would be Invested
of its greatest charm, if they could be
convinced that they are like other men.
We continually hear from men who have
no specific, or individual points. who on
ly belong to the genus, large claims oi
popularity, as ifindeed nobody was pre-
cisely like them. Because they have
thoughts or emotions which are new te
themselves, they suppose they are SO t
all others, and set themselves down a
very peculiar, when perhaps they were
the very last to think of them. Within
the last week we heard a poor ignorant

Pork eaters may believe as much of
this as they please. 1t is said that the
Jews, Turks, Arabians, and all those who
observe the preeept of avoiding blood
and swine's flesh, are infinitely more free
from disease than Christians; more es-
peeially do they escape those opprobua of
the medical art, gout, serofula, eonsump-
ton, and madness. The Turks eat great
quantities of honey and pastry. and much
sugar; they also eat largely, and are indo-
lent; and yetdo not suffer from dyspepsia
as Christians do. The swine fed natives
of ehristendom suffer greater deyasta-
ton from painful tubercular disease of
the Neutrality-suspicious. from any
other cause. Those persons who abstain
from swine's flesh and blood, are infinite
ly more healthy and free from humors,
giandular diseases, dyspepsia, and con-
sumption; while in those districts, among
those classes of men where the pig makes
the chief article of diet, -tubercle in all
its forms of eruption, sore legs. bad eyes,
abscesses must prevail 1t is stated as a
remarkable coincidence, that Prince Ed
wards Island has climate similar to
Great Britain. There the inhabitants are
not consumptiye, yet neither is the pig
cultivated.

Gsterus.

A correspondent of an exchange gives
the experience of Mr.. Harry Tuttle, of
Leroy, n. Y, with q wood cistern. He
says:
He built large tub-six feet high
and six feet in diameter, of inch and a
quarter pine plank of floor stuf-the
slaves FIVE OF six inches wide and pointed,
made it set work. as coopers call it,
with wooden hoops. He then dug a
round hole in the ground under his wood
shed, little larger than the tub, made a
good mortar bed of clay, not loam, and
spread a good coat of mortar all over the
bottom of the hole. The tub was then
pressed down on this mortar, and the
mortar stamped or pounded in around
the inside Of the tub, and the whole COW
cred with boards. It has never had q
penny's worth Of repair, has never need
ed any-has never leaked-the frost does
not iniure it-and only the top of the
slaves show sny signs of decay. It has

How can Slavery be Abolished I?

This is the question of the age with
the American people, and it is one easier
asked than answered. We hope to live
to see the day when slavery will not blot
the fair escutcheon of this country. We
should be willing to be taxed our proper
ton of the amount, were it asked of US, to
buy the slaves of this republic and give
them their freedom. Perhaps emancipa-
ton may never be produced in any other
way. Most eloquently has Ralph W. EN-
erson, the Sage of Concord, set forth this
idea, in recent address. He has devo-
ted the years of a generation in rehec-
ton on the great subject, and be express
es himself against the inhuman laws
made to prop slavery. and in favor of a
great movement in behalf of freedom,
in language that deserves to be pondered
by every patriot. He says:
It is really great task-a great feat
for this country to accomplish, to buy
that property of the planter, as the Brit
ish bought the West India slaves. ]
say, buy never coneeding the right oi
the planter to own, but acknowledging
the calamity of his position. and willing
to bear countryman's share in relieving
him, and because it is the only practical
course, and is innocent. Well, here is
the right publicor social function. which
one man cannot do, and which all men
must do. We shall one day bring the
States shoulder to shoulder, and the citi-
zens man to man, to exterminste slavery.

Curious Prediction.

Mrs. Swisshelm, writing some predic-
tons in reference to the eastern war,
makes the following remarks:
"Six years ago, we heard the Rev. DR..
Wilson, then Of Allegheny City, and Pro-
fessor of Theology in the Presbyterian
Church, say that in less than ten years
a war would break out in Europe between
Russia and the Western Powers war
which would be one of the most terrible
ever recorded in the annals of history,
and which, by its wholesale slaughters,
would carry the name of Christendom
with thrill of wonder to the most remote
and barbarous nations, awaken curiosi-
ty about civilization that would prepare
the way for the introduction of the Bible
and Christianity into those benighted
lands. whose people would be taught by
the rumors of this war to fear and re-
spect the arts of civilization. This de-
clarstien was made again and again in
public, from the pulpit, and was the re-
suit of a lifetime study of the prophecies
of the Bible. The war then unthought
OF is now begun, and the aged preacher
always said the Western Powers would
be victorious-that the teeth of the great
Bear would be forever broken, and with
them the power of the Pope. We have
heard this same man predict the Mexican
war years before it begun, and tell what
its end would be. He also predicted the
great fire of 40 in Pittsburg, and we are
inclined to think that his gift of second
sight was more reliable than that of the
maker of this old statute, and that the
Russians will not be masters of Constan-
tinople. From the first word about pro-
posed hostilities between Russia and Tur-
key, We have been in the habit of telling
our friends to buy their -four, for it would
be from S15 to $50 barrel before it
would be SIS again, and SO We think it
will be; for weaFe of opinion our preacher
saw far into the prophecies already writ
ten. He said this war would take place
be very terrible and general
and that it was the last war before the
universal peace of the Millennium"
