INDUsrRY AND ECONOMY.

The duties that develove upon public
journalist are manifold, but We take it that
his highest duty Is ID advocate the material
interests of the community Ii which be lives
The success of parties, Of the elevation of fa'
vOrites to Office, should always be held Sees
ondary to the promotion Of schemes that
have for their object the material prosperity
of the community. There is a philosophy
in this The man who is prosperous and
well to.do in the world-other things beibg
equal-will be better citizen than one who
is reduced to the straits of poverty, and finds
it difficult to make eAds meet. The pros>
porous citizen has far less temptation to the
commission of dishonest acts than has be
who is pinched by poverty, and at every step
finds grimVisaged want staring him in the
face We have here the key to the familiar
expression, "poor but honest" not by any
means admitting that poverty necessarily
implies dishonesty, but that when reduced
to want the temptation to dishonesty is inG>
uitely greater than when in the possession of
af1uence. So generally has this fact come
to be recouized that it has left its impression
upon the literature Of the age, and the quo
tation given above is in such common use
that it fails to strike the ear. In giving the
pedigree of a man born to wealth, whoever
thinks of describing him as the "Son of rich
but respectable parents ?" Such an express
ion sounds strange, and in this very strange
ness, we have the evidence that wealth and
respectability are invariably associated. We
by no means intend to argue in favor Of the
proposition, but taking things as they arc,
and desiring to make the most we can of the
world in which we live, we accept condi>
tion of affairs which we had no hand in form,
ing, and are willing to concede all the ad.
vantageS that can possibly be claimed for the
possession of wealth. 1t is here we find
motive for the exercise of economy and that
prudent thrift which steadily adhered to,
transforms the poor man of to-day into the
millionaire of Tomorrow, and brings with it
the respect and esteem of the great world
which is ever sure to worship success, it mats
ters not at what sacrifice attained. The Isl
ralites understand this, and hence we find
that in proportion to their number, they fur
nish fewer criminals, less number of gam
blers, or of offenders against the law, than
any other class of people. By the habits of
industry, they manage to place themselves
beyond the reach of want, and hence have
less inducement to the commission of crime
or offences against person or property. Bear
ing these facts in mind, parents and all those
having the care of youth, should constantly
strive to impress upon them the importance
of cultivating habits of industry and econo-
my. A son who grows up with these princi-
pels thoroughly impressed upon bis mind,
has taken a bond, as it we're, against fate
and although his name may never be euroll>
ed on the scroll of the great he is sure to
leave behind him the odOy of good name.

Farmer,s VI. Miller:

FooT OF BLUE MoUNTAINs, Aug. 10, 1866.
Ed. STATESMAN - Seeing that you solicit
communications that may be Of interest to your
subscribers, and being farmer, propose to
give you a few items which are very important
to the farmers of this valley, viz: the prices of
grain.
Wheat, the principal article Of surplus pro-
duced in this valley this season, appears to be
dull sale; only commencing at 60 cents per BUSH
ell. Now, let us see what is the actual cost of
-four per barrel to the miller. Estimating the
yield of -four per bushel of wheat at 46 lbs, it
will take At bushels Of wheat to make barrel
of -four, which will amount to $2,55 sacks
Sl,OO; total, $3,55. Now, there is IA lbs. Of
Offal, which is worth from fc. to lie. per h.,
amounting to about 55c. to the barrel of -four,
which will leave So as the sctual cost of -four
to the miller, exclusive of manufacturing.
Now, ask the miller the reason of wheat be-
ing so low, and his answer is, There are good
crops u Oregon and California, and -four is
bound to be very low here"
Now, we will make another calculation on the
wheat and manufacturing. Sacks, $l,OO ;
freight from Portland to Wallula, $l,oo, and
freight from Wallula to walla waIla $3.50, ma
king $3.50 as extra over and above the wheat
and manufacturing, or $3.50 over and above
what eur millers pay. Divide this by 4f, the
number of bushels Of wheat it takes to make
barrel Of -four, and we have nearly SO cents
only one cent less than the present prce Of
wheat. Probably the cost of manufacturing is
trihe more here than in Oregon, but there are
! other things on the other side of the balance
sheet, which will more than overbalance this
difference, such as erayags and profits by our
merchants importing the -four, &c. Now, in
stead of paying US but so cents per bushel, they
should pay us SO cents per bushsl more than
the Portland price.
As have Alreadygo beyond my intended
limits will close for the present. More anon.

THE PHILADELPHIA CoNvENTIoN.-The
Convention which assembled at Philadelphia
on Tuesday last August l4th, promises to
be memorable in the annals of the nation
In the agitation and excitement resulting
from the adjustment of questions growing
out of the war, the conservative men OF the
country have lacked unity of purpose, and
owing to this cause they have labored under
great disadvantages in opposing the trained
cohorts of radicalism. 1t will be the trst
duty of the Convention to adopt platform
and declaration of principles on which men
of all shades of opinion can unite. The only
test of membership will be firm determii
nation to sustain the Union, and with it the
rights of the States unimpaired. AS part OF
the great purpose for which this assemblage
Of the representative men Of the nation was
convened, definite plan of action will be
will be agreed upon looking to the immedI'
ate admission of loyal Senators and RepreI
sentatiyes from the States late in rebellion.
There can be no question that under the
Constitution the right of these States to be
represented in Congress is absolute and enr
tirely independent of the whims and caprice
of members representing other constituent
oios The exclusion of the Southern States
from representation in Congress is clearly
revolutionary measure, involving the worst
form Of secession and containing within it
the seeds of future destruction. To check
mate and counteract the schemes of the dis
union fanatics who control Congress, and
whose past history conclusively shows that
they are unfit to direct the destinies of free
people, it is meet and proper that the true
friends Of the Union should assemble in
National Convention and counsel as to the
measures best calculated to avert the danger
that now threatens the country. From the
first we hailed the call for the Philadelphi
Convention as an auspicious movement, and
we are still firm in the opinion that it will
result in great good to the country. From
Philadelphia went forth the call that sum-
moned the nation into existence, and from
the men who are now assembled within the
portals Of Old Independence Hall we expect
another declaration which will serve to point
the way to full and perfect restoration of

GOING BACKwARD.-At the commence
ment of the quarrel between the President
and tie radicals in Congress the Oregon
Statesman sided with the Executive and
forcibly sustained the veto of the Freedmen's
Bureau bill, as also the general policy of the
Administration. The Eugene Journal and
jacksonville Sentinel followed in the same
strain and were classed as supporting the
President. This was previous to the June
election, and through the influence of these
papers hundreds of true friends of the Pres.
ident were induced to support the radical
State ticket, honestly believing that in thus
voting they were sustaining the Administra-
tion. Now that the election is over and there
is no longer any purpose to be gained by de
ception, these papers throw of all disguise,
and are not whit behind the Oregonidn in
abusing and vilifying the President and his
policy. Newspapers like individuals are
privileged to oppose or favor any given poliI
cy, but when position has been deliberately
taken it should not be abandoned without
sufficient cause. The Presidents policy was
as well understood in the month of May last
as it is to>day, and the newspaper that sus
tanned Andrew johnson at that date will find
it difficult to assign any sufficient reason fol
opposing him now. The change in the tone
of the Statesman may possibly be accounted
for in the fact that its principal owner and
controlling genius is at the East on business
connected with the Department over which
he so creditably presides. In his. absence
the paper seems to have fallen under radica
control. The Eugene Journal is understood
TO draw its inspiration from the Surveyo
Generals office, and inasmuch as we have no
heard of any change Of base on the part o
General APplegate, we can only account 70
the changed tone of the paper in banker
ing after Senatorial honors, the dispensatiol
of which is supposed to be with the radicals
Defections are always to be regretted, bu
Notwithstanding this trio Of Oregon newsps
pers have gone back on their record we still
have an abiding faith that President John
son will continue on in the work he has s
nobly commenced, aud that his crownin
glory will be the restoration of the Unio
with the rights of the States unimpaired.

THE CoNTAGIoN AMONG THE CATTLE
The report that symptoms of an lniec lous dis
ease had appeared among the cattle OF adjacent
counties was not merely bit of sensation gos
sip, or a shrewd dodge OF the droVers and
butchers TO raise the price OF beef, as some in
credUlous people rather hastily inferred. We
have heard ofone farmer in the Farmers Market,
who lost within q few days past twelve head
OF splendid cattle, valued at $500 fro n some
strange epidemic whose nature was not ascer-
Jained. The instance is not solitary one, and
it is, therefore, advisable Tor cattle breeders to
be looking well to the CONDITION OF their stock.
Tne disease has produced an extraordinary la
lality IL Europe and Asia, and 1t IS probable
that IL would prove Just as destructive 40 Anne
RIGA. Some OF the most experienced and disdn-
guished men OF foreign countr es have endea-
Yored to discover the mysteries OF this plague
among the brute creation.
James Thacker Veterinary Surgeon, and a
man of close observation, and high abilities in
the Madras Presidency, has been engaged IN
watching the progress and effects OF the disease.
He says that the muTIain is an epidemic, conta-
Rious typhoid fever, whicn commences in a
general congestion, with a mucns discharge
from the es and nostrils, followed by inham-
nation OF the ''abomasumh or last compartment
of the stomach and intesCines. In the hrst stage
the attack Is shown by shlyering hts, bat little
appetite dulness, dropping ears weeping eyes,
and uulckening pulsaton, In the second stage
the appetite is quite gone, the nose dry and hot,
| with thick discharges OF mucus; and, in the
| third stage, the victim dies, the pulse being
| gradually Imperceptlble. The attack lasts IRON ron
| seven to fourteen days before death ensuss. Sur
| geon Thacker gives the lollO wing mode oil treat
| ment, and remarks;--
'As this is an inhammatoTy disease, the seda
/ tive and narcotic class OF medicines are mos
