EprroR SrATEsMAx:-The last time / had the
sspresumptiou" genial sun warmed the hill
side aud shOne in the valley. The scene is
changed. Dread winter surrounds US, and, for
several weeks snow has covered the face OF
mother earth. Instead of warm sunlight glau-
cling through the window and playing upon the
floor, frost flowers are on the window panes,
a white flag mantle hangs on the trees, and eve
thing crackles under foot from the severity of
"Jack Frost"
Our ttri weekly mail lags behind in cense-
oueuce of the extreme cold, and the non arrival
of your welcome newspaper often pfovokes some
impiOus utterance. The riders attribute the it.
regularity to the fact that Snake river is frozen
over. .....-..t ~ .-s..,
This is the second month of winter, and thinks
ing of the next to come reminds me that we are
in the midst of leap year, which occasion trans
fers to young unmarried ladies the privilege Of
'poppiug the question" To those of your fe-
male readers who would wish to avail them
selves of this time honored usuage, would res
pectfully announce that l am a candidate for the
state of connubial bliss, aud expect to be rel
minded during the present year that "the ab,
sent are not forgotten" Spring. am sure the
word passes my lips many time during the
dsv. A winter in the mountains is very tame
and morotonous, especially where the ladies are
of a "dusky' order, and miscegenation not alN
lowed. Never, perhaps, have the appearances
been so favorable for brisk spring trade as
the ones that now present themselves. The in.
,dications are altogether good for the miners and
those who are in Dame Fortunes favor.
Everything on the Mullan route is in active
state of preparation for the coming spring rush
The proprietors of the Spokane Upper Bridge

Mail Matters.

Postmaster Koontz has received notice
from Postal Agent Brooks, that only the
letter mail will be forwarded from Portland
up the Columbia during the time the river
remains closed, aud that Only Oace a week.
No newspapers, either from Oregon or the
States will be forwarded until the boats start
again. 1t is said the small things ere not
to be despised, but if this arrangement is
not despisable, then we have no conception
of what is. All Eastern Oregon, all Idaho
Territory and large part Of Washington,
entirely cut off from all paper communica-
tion with the rest Of the world. Now, Mr..
Brooks, is it your duty as postal agent to
arrange for the transmission of mail mstter2
If it is, don't you know that few mules or
cayuses would carry all the paper as well as
letter mail to and from Portland and the
Dalles at very small cost compared with
steamboat prices? And do you know, or
care, that this Office is cut off from 200 sub
scribers, and all other papers in this upper
country are in similar condition. If this
is the best you can do, sell out to somebody
who knows the availability of mule when

TO you that man could get from Oregon
to California without either steamboat or
stage? Probably not Yet thousands have
done so. You will find plenty of men who
will take the contract Of carrying the mail
between Dales and Portland during the times
boats connet run, at a very reasonable rate.
The fact that the letter mail gets along, is
proof that the paper mail can be put throu III
also. Come, Mr.. Brooks, We want to look
at this matter, and if you want a man who
will go through snow and carry the mail
regularly, don't get broadcloth dandy but
send up this way and get a man who has
smelt frost. We have thousands of miles in
this upper country where there never has
been steamboat or stage, and where all
descriptions OF goods. from a barrel of 'old
rye to a seven foot looking glass are carried
on mules, and our mails, both letter and
paper, are trains mitted regularly and safely
Throw aside your kid glove and bandb0x
style, and pitch in. We want our paper as
well as letter mail, aud every one knows YOU
can let us have id Columbia Press.

SHASTA CREEK.-Evcry foot-loose man
talks more or less about going, next spring,
to the new mines on Shasta creek As yet
but littlo appears to be known about the
extent or richness of these mines. As near
as we can learn the diggings are situated
about ten miles south of Mormon Basin, on
the hesdwaters of Willow and Shasta creeks
tributaries of the Snake. Water for mih~
ing purposes is scarce. though a company
are to have a ditch brought in with supply
the coming spring.

On the outside of this issue will be found
the best exposition of the financial policy of
the country that we have met with 1t is
given by Henry Clay Dean, of Iowa, and
furnishes clear insight to the whole sub
jeet Of bonds, bOadholders and greenbacks.
1t is needless to say that Greeley, Beechcr
and the others invited to discuss the green,
back question, failed to respond. No argu.
ments of the bondholdors would stand for
moment against Mr.. Deans logic. There
fore Greeley & Co, wisely held themselves
aloof from the discussion. But read the
article democrats, and then let your repub.
llcan neighbors read it. 1t will do some of
them good, although we are glad to know
that large number of republicans in the
County, have recently arrived at the wise
conclusion that large portion of the ma
tlonal debt can, and of right ought to be,
paid in greenbacks.
