Uorace Greeley SWindleG-EIe Gets a
verdict 5OT Damages.
In the circuit court at White
Plains. Westchester county, New
York, a suit was decided on Tuesday
evening, in which Horace Greeley
figured Us plaintiff against one Moses
Dudley Bean. who, as was charged,
had contriyed to defraud the fOrme~
out Of $4,000. It appears that dur
ing the year 1866 the defendant por-
trayed a glowing picture of African
colonization to Mr. Greeley. the
scene whereof was laid in North
Carolina, and, te effect this much
desired end, Bean informed the
philosopher" that a company with.
a capital stock $50O,000 had been
formed for the purpose Of acquiring
such rich and fertile lands as were
requisite for the success of the
philanthropic undertaking. The
plaintiff, on these representations
advanced the sum above named, on
the assurance that it was a profitable
investment, but subsequently ascer-
tanned that the acres indicated werC
a part and parcel Of the Dismal

EXTRAORDTNARY THEORY.
Can Lie be IudenniteIy suspended'

A distinguished Swedish chemist
DR.. Grusselbaeh. professor Of the
University of Upsal, has come to the
conclusion that those Egyptian
manies which arc found in the an
rient tombs on the Nile in a complete
state-tbat is to say. without having
been deprived OF their brains and
sntrsils. like most mummies-are not
onbalmed at all, but "are really the
lodies of individuals whose life has
been momentarily suspended. with
the intention Of restoring them at
some future time. only the secret OF
prescr9ua oa was lost. Professor Grus
selbach adduces many proofs in sup
port OF his idea-anong others, his
experiments during the last ten
vears,which, he SAYS, have always
proved successful. He took .
snake and treated it in such a man-
her as to benumb 1t as though II
had been carved in marble, and II
was so brittle that, had he allowed II
To fall, it would have broken into
fragments. Ia this state he kept II
for several wears, and then restored
IL TO life by sprinkling it with
stimnlating fluid, the composition
of which is secret. For fifteen years
ahe snake has been undergoing al
cxistance composed of successive
deaths and resurrections apparently
without sustaining harm The Pro
fessor is reported to have sent a pc
tition to his Government, requested
that q criminal, who has been con
demned to death may be given t
him to be treated in the same man
ner as the snake, promising to re
store him to life again in two years
II is understood that the man under
roing this experiment is to be par
doned. OF course, if man can b.
kept in q state Of suspended anima
tion for two years, he may be KEEP
for two thousand years, and, if tn

farmers are willing to wade through

would nearly, if not quite, obviate
this unpleasant necessity.

Portland, Astoria and West Side Rail-
road.

The following dispatch was received
at this Office yesterday from Senator
Williams
WASHINGTON, March 20, 1870.
The House Committee have agreed
to the Portland, Astoria and McMinn-
vile railroad bill, which will pass as
soon as it can be reached.
GEO. H. WILLIAMS.
This is welcome intelligence. Senator
Williams has taken great personal in
terest in urging this bill upon the
House Committee, and as they have
agreed to report it there can now be no
doubt but it will pass. We shall now
have an opportunity to see another
manifestation of Democratic opposition
to land grants. That ridiculous bill of
Smiths, which was clearly thrown in
with hope of defeating all grants for
the west side and then giving opportu>
nifty to lay the. blame on Republicans,
has not been heard of since ID was first
proposed. But this bill, which conveys
grant Of great value, will go through
and, thanks to the ideas Of Republicans
in Congress, the railroad system Of this
State will be fostered and built up.
The people Of Oregon will not be slow
10 see who are their friends and sup
porters in these important matters.

THE OLD BARN.

Riekety, old and crazy,
Shingleless, lacking some doors;
Bad in the upper story,
Wanting some boards in the floor,
Beams strung thick with co5webs,
Ridgepole yellow and gray,
Hanging in helpless innocence
Over the mows of hay
How the winds Turned around it
Winds of a sto- my day
Scattering the fragrant hay seed,
Whiskiug the straws away;
Streaming in at the erannics,
Spreading the clover smell
Changing the dark old granary
Into fiowery deli.
Oh, how loved the shadow,
That clung to the silent roof,
Day dreams woye with the quiet,
Many glitteling woof;
7 climbed to the highest raffer,
Watched the swallows at play,
Admired the knots in the boarding,
And rolled in the pillows of hay.
Palace of king couldn't match it!
The Vatican loses its charm,
When placed in my memory's balance,
Beside the old gray barn!
SpIendor, wealth, may not charm us,
Association IL all
We love the home of our childhood
Better than marble -foored hall.
/ sat for hours in the summer
On the threshold gray,
And saw the cows in pasture
Take their lazy paced way;
The lambs, white as the DAISIES,
Frolicked from hill TO tarn--
Or fell asleep in the shadow
Made by the tclever" old barn.
I've roamed DER the Southern country,
Stood in mosques Of the East,
Galloped in the Western prairies,
Gathered in contentinent at last;
And I'd rather scent the clover,
Piled in the barns roomy mows,
Than sit in the breath Of the highlands
Poured from Appenine brows!.
