WOMEN WANTED IN OREGON

A private letter written With reference to an aver
6sement Of the American Industrial Association, has
been handed TO W, from which We learn OF an inter-
esrg want in the Territory Of Oregon. Tee writer Is
the wife Of gentleman Of responsibility and standing
in Eugene City, and speaks Of that which she knows
from personal observation and experience The Tern
tory, she ssy. is in great need Of help, especially
female dome.tcs-honest industrious grs, such as we
can trust 10 our families hundreds Of good young
women could soon find good homes Throughout. our
Territory" IL consider" she continues, 1.-THE great
want Of Oregon is wel-informed, industrious young
women School teachers would do well, but the great
call lie for donestics, both in town and county. Tney
would be well treated and, if deserving would be as
respected as the employers Themselves" She con-
suited before writing with many persons IS 70 the In
ducemepts which might be held out to young women
to come to Oregon and they all agreed that glsdy as
they would welcome any number Of such immigrants
as dtmestics, as domestics it would be impossible to
retain them 70 eager would be the competition for
them for more tender and desirable family re!stion.
But Sir" che adds, I'VE are not so selfish that we
should not be willing TO give them up, did they ind
hon that would suit them better. There s now many
a good home in Oregon, lonely and deso!ate which
would tighten up at the presence Of of your burden
some Eastern girls. | say burdensome, because OF
ysur overplus Of laborers while, at the same time,
we are tasked beyond our energies TO perform our
necessary labor The truth is there is 30 large me-
ority of men here who need womans labor thst it
hard for tx few women who are here to accomplish
it. Could there be any way devised by which the
ovsrpus with which the Eastern States are burdened
could be sent here, would prove blessing to both
East and West. Common wages for female douestics
sre 80 per week, and for males or farm from $50 to
$40 month The wages, it may be observed, are
not large but the expenses Of living should be taken
into consideration, and the ultimate chsnces-csrtainty
indeed if this writer may as We presu he she can, be
relied on--of independence to those who have the
means to get there. Oregon is undoubtedly good
place to 60 TO- and to thoe whose attentions aud
tons have been turned toward that large class who
want to emigrate and of the right stuff for such
purpose, opens wide field and one which will reply

An ILLINOIS RoMAScE.-The RushrMe lul) Chi-
zen Of last week contains the following specimen Of
Illinois romance:
AN elderly gentleman had beautiful daughter,
one whom he loved much, in whom all his hopes were
conferred. Some two years or more ago young man
"a strar ger-csme TO board with him, and finally to
worn for him. His good character orwardness,
genial cispositioD smsblty and virtue, soon ingats
ted him into the good grsces of the whole family; so
that some eighteen months ago, the old gentleman
having some business to be done in BeardstOwn, n-
trusted this young to do il for him and gave hun
the use Of his team, &c. About the same time, his
daughter having busnes.-some little shopping such
as girls always hsye-at the city, and the fathers
confidence in the youth being great he allowed her
TO accompany him. At night they returned, cafe and
sound, the business and the shopping satisfactorily
done.
"Thnps went on as usual The family and the
youth mutually attached and the attachment constantly
growing and strengthening, until indeed, the parents
of the girl began to talk about match between the
young folks and to observe with pleasure the growing
intimacy and apparent fondness between them. Having
such confidence both the Id folks retired, In the
country they generally do early leaving the lovers,
as they hoped to make their own terms, and fix upon
their own arrangements.
Judge then Of the fathers surprise, when
night, couple of weeks ago, he woke up about III
o'clock at night quite SICK and having occasion to
leave his ewn, caught bis young and beautiful daugh
ter in her night robes, just in the act OF taking her
place the Sng naa %snt %
tore bis hair. He upbraded his daughter, snd poured
the vials Of bis wrath upon the ungrateful youth.
"The youth took it cooDy-c.lmy, indeed, under
the circumstances. So soon as he could get the old
gentleman to sten he told him that he need not make
such fss that his daughter had right to share his
couch, to sleep in his arms, &C., Imagine all the
poetry
"Next morning bright and early, in the language Of
