GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN CoMPLI-
MENTED.-The New York Tribune thus
compliments Train: We grieve to
say that an old and eloquent friend of
ours, who has ofteen been particularly
mentioned in these columns-the Amer
icon Demosthenese, otherwise known as
Mr.. George Francis Train--is most re-
spectfully spoken of by several of the
Western journals, aud that he never was
pasquinaded before with such versatility
of rhetoric and ingenuity of abuse, ex
cept, may be, in some Woman's Conven-
tion. He is called: 1. AN added
pated windle-ba ,. He is thus ad
dressed: Good-bye, old windy; good
bye, old gas-plpe; go home and soak
your head in whisky, so as to give some
strength to your apology for brains =
all of which, to say the least, is not very
complimentary to MIR. Train phrenologic-
ally. We must, with all our force, pro-
test against this light method of men
tioning a man who, in our opinion, can
in one hour talk more and say less than
any other being that has ever existed or
is likely to exist. Honor to whom honor
Is due,

T1le Alba1,g 2egister,

The Louisville Courier greases the
reputation of a landlady in that city with
the following butter story
There is private boarding house in
the city which is kind of rendezvous
for medical students-at least it is gener-
ally considered so-as much from the
fact, perhaps, that it affords the necessa-
ries of an ordinary boarding house to
some thirty of these young fellows as that
it is devoted exclusively to the accommo
dation of this class of persons. Not long
since the landlady made purchase of
some butter. Among the lot was lump
which was rather aged. 1t was put on
one of the tables for dinner the same day.
and no one there took butter. The next
day it was put upon another table, and
likewise remained intact So it passed
around to all the tables, and at the end of
a week, when it had swung completely
around the circle unmolested, the land
lady was puzzled to know what to do with
it. 1t cost tso much to be thrown away,
and she had kept it too long to return it
now to the grocery man. She could Mt
afford to lose it, and she didn't mean to
SO she took it and padled it over into
another shape, making it more rotund,
and in no respect similar to its former
appearance. 1t appeared in its brand
new dress at dinner that day, but met
with the same cold reception. Around
it went again, day by day, from one table
to another, till it arrived at that of real
specimen of a student wild, rollicking
don't care, jolly fellow, always ready and
eager for some mischief. He watched
his opportunity, and. when the landlady
happened to step out of the dinning room
for moment, he took the big ball OF
butter, which was then just soft enough
to hold itself together, and with one
swing it went spat against the ceiling
and stuck there in kind of hemisphere
The landlady entered just moment lat
ter, and her attention was Immediately ly
attracted to the unusual situation of the
butter by the gigglng and tittering oi
the boarders. Who did that 2" she
screamed in terrible rage. There was
no answer, when the fellow who had done
the mischief, looking slyly up at the
greasy substance, which was just hanging
over his head, says, "Speak, butter
you'er old enough to talk for youself"

The Hon. Jno. E. Sanford, Insurance Commits
sioner of Massachusetts,, in his Report for 1868,
speaking of Dividends in Life Insurance Compa-
nies. says, "The sooner such guarantees cease
to be made, and such expectations created, the
Life Insurance will come to rest on its true
motive and men insure their lives for security,
and not for dividends. The hest and the most
popular companies will then be those that prom
Use only equity, and render all that they promise,
and furnish the best security, with the most up
right and judicious management"

Scientific men attribute the late severe
Summer and Autumn weather, the
storms, floods and earthquakes that have
prevailed in various places, to the infu-
ence of the sun, which they assert is in
serted by them that the body of magnet
ic light now shooting from the sun in
every direction viii, by the beginning of
next year, have extended far enough to
exercise material influence upon the
earth, and then it is said we may expect
that phenomena will be observable such
as have not yet come under the notice OF
the human race.

Kill ye wild kisses intirely; if was ye'er

Charcoal should be fed to fattening
hogs twice week they eat it with
great avidity, and it supplies carbon in
its purest state. A pan Of it might be
kept in the pen, and a trial made of its
fattening properties. Sulphur is also a
useful condiment which hogs eat greedi-
ly. Whether it is essential to their
health we know not, but we do know
that they relish it much more than we
used to relish daily spoonful of sui
phur and molasses given to US in child
hood for spring debility.

Prof. j: E. Schmidt recently presented
his new maps of the moon to meeting
of astronomical savans in Vienna, Aus
tria. They are the result of thirty years
study and observation at Hamburg, Bonn,
Olmutz and Athens This atlas is to
consist of twenty-five plates which are
six Paris feet in diameter, twice the size
of Lohrmann's and Madler's lunar maps.
Nor is their size the only point in which
they excel the earlier works. While only
5000 craters are naked on the latter
from 20, 600 to sc, 900 are to be found on
the AthenIan map, and proportionatc
number of mountains, hills, etc., have
been exactly determined Since the
disappearance of the crater, Linnaus,
which was confirmed in 1866, has proved
that changes take place on the moons
surface of dimensions great enough to be
observed on our earth, the want of a
large map has been keeniy felt, and this
want Mr.. Schmidt has now supplied

ADVERTISEMENTS.

TIME simplicity and practicability of this
Il Plow commends it favorably to the special
notice of every farmer. 1t possesses q decided
superiority over all other plows now in use. The
wheels four feet in diameter, and run on the
unplowed land. Its entire construction is in no
way complicated. The pIow is managed in every
manner with ease, and requires only two levers
to be used in making any alteration. The supe-
riority of the "Gay" Plow will be clearly shown
by the following certificate
We, the undersigned, citizens of Linn county,
Oregon, having purchased and used upon
farms the "Gay" Plow, hereby certify that the
same has given entire satisfaction. Its facility
for adjusting to suit the depth of furrow without
moving from the seat, is simple and easy. We
like the plow for its draught, because the same is
brought to bear directly upon the plow-beam in
stead of the carriage; also, because it is strong
and durable, all except the woodwork being con-
structed of wrought iron-no castings are used.
The wheels running upon the solid land is an ad-
vantage over other gang plows, in striking off
land and in plowing, not having to make the nee
essary changes in the machinery, and the seat is
always level not throwing the driver forward or
sideways as in other plows. Better work and
more of it can be accomplished by the use of this
Plow than by hand.
We take pleasure in recommending the "GAY''
Prov to our brother farmers, as one having no
superior in Oregon.
