THAT sLANDER AGAIN.

Woods slander against Mr.. Grover,
that the Inter gentleman had at one
time made overtures for the employ
lment Of Chinese operatives in the
Wooien Mills ut Salem, has already
been successfully refuted. The only
evidence that was ever given in favor
OF the charge was the affidavit Of one
Jacobs, that he had heard Mr.. Doland,
the Democratic Treasurer Of Multno-
nah county, say that Mr.. Grover had
some years ago spoken or written to
him (Doland). making proposition to
hire some Cinnamon. This affidavit
was supplemented by afiidayits from
L. L. Pratt and w. G. johnson, that
they had heard Mr.. Doland say that
the Salem Company I'D written to
him about employing Chinese, though
these latter affidavits do not mention
Mr.. Growers name ut all. This the
Oregonian called proof OF the
Mr.. Doland wrote letter, which we
published, denying that Mr.. Grover
had ever made such proposition, and
stating that he always thought that
gentleman to he opposed to the en-
ployment Of Cinnamon.
We could very we'll rest the case
here, but in order to overwhelm these
base slnnderers, who have been ped
ding this calumny, we print to-day
the affidavits of four as honorable
men as there arc in all Oregon, men
TOO, ,cho speak from knowledge and moi
from hearsay. to the effect that neither
the Willamette Woolen Mannfactur-
ing Company nor Mr.. Grover have ev-
er offered to employ Cinnamon, and
that Mr.. Grover has on all occasions
opposed their employment in the
Company's mills. To these aiiidavits
we append another letter from Mr..
Doland. moro explicit even than his
FIRST one.
We commend this testimony to the
attention of oil, rs triumphant vindi-
cation OF Mr.. Grover from the foul rs
persion cast upon him:

The Phenomena of Earthquakes.

In earthquakes, says the Peoples Maga-
zine, we see the conservative agency of fire
called in to counteract the des' 'ructive
agency of water Wind and rain, heat and
cold, are continually at work rending in
pieces and grinding down the solid rock
the disintegrated portions of the rock form
the soil Of the lowlands and this in its
turn Is eaten away by running streams,
swept down by heavy rains, to be carried
by the rivers and deposited in the sea. 1t
is thus that the shadows and great river
deltas are formed; and The materials so
brought down are gradually, by the action
of the waves, distributed over the bed of
the ocean. This action, if suffered to con
tinue without interruption, would in time
level the highest mountain ranges and in
the place Of varied surfice of land and
water there would be uniform shallow
sea covering the whole earth. Here the
working of fire steps in 90 Coqnteriut 1he
destructive agency of water. IL acts sud
denly and with terrific force, and therefore
il is more noted and more feared than the
work which is done so silently and slowly,
vet so irresistihly, by the gentle flow OF
the rivers. OF one thing VIC are sure, that
they are caused by the internal heat of the
earth. They usually occur in volcanic re-
gions; they are frequently accompanied by
volcanic eruptions during their continu-
rance flames are said to burst from the
earth, springs sof boiling water rise from
the soil, ,hnd new volcanoes have been raised
as their result We know that at a com
para lively small depth below the surface OF
the globe there is temperature very far
exceeding anything which we experience
at the surface. Whether we accept the hy-
/ pothesis of vast central fire, or consider
/ that.this heat is generated by chemical ac-
ton or by electric currents, we know that
there are stored up beneath our feet vast
reservoirs of heat. What gases are stored
under pressure in the cavities of the earth
we know not But we know that the in
creased expansive force of an elastic fluid
under comparatively small increase Of
t, mperature would be sufficient to rend
asunder the solid rock and produce the eff
fects we see. Perhaps tissure so opened
may admit water to the heated nucleus

The Elephant as a Walker.

WE have found two curious points over
looked or ignored by wrilers-one Is the
rapid and nOiseless movements of this AMI
NAL in the thickest cover; the other his
capabilities of passing over ground for
him apparently untcasible. The elastic,
noiseless otfall of the elephant has been
frequently referred to by writers on Indian
subjects, and has been rightly asserted to
be the most agreeable feature in journey
ing on elephant back. This peeuilrity
may be easily explained by, an eXamina-
toa of the structure of the animals foot :
but the silent, stealthy way in which he
will pass through the densest thicl1et, liter
ally shipping away" when his acute sense
of smell or hearing warns him OF danger,
has been overlooked, and appears to us
somewhat difficult Of explanation. 49,.
