peror of Brazil is very sensible man.
He travels in strict iaeognito while in
England, and insists upon paying his
way wherever he goes. To his credit
it is related that when he could not
procure admission to a military re-
view at Bushey Park without a ticket
he drove back to town rather than de-
clare himself. Nature evidently made
no mistake when Don Pedro was born
to the purple. What contrast is
here furnished betw cen this noble and

A Washington special says the
Secretary of the Treasury will to-
morrow issue detailed statement of
the defalcations of Collectors of In
ternal Revenue since the establish
ment of the Bureau, which will show
that the actual amount of defalca-
tions to the close of the last fiscal
year was s2,7GS, ,397 of this amount
over one-third is credited to Louis
lana Collectors-L. B. Collins, Gen.
Steedn an and Eugene Esmale alone
being defaulters fol $500, 900. In
view of the fact that over 81 500 900,
have been collected from this source,
the percentage of loss is remarked
by Treasury officials as remarkably
small. The amount on unadjusted
accounts is only $460, 600.

visit Oregon in October. Why can't
our State Agricultural Society invite
him to deliver an address at the State
Fair? We are sure that the address
would be able and interesting and
would draw a ponderous crowd
Brick can discount Horace Greeley as
an agriculturalist, because he has
"raised HI" among the Radicals lots

THE WORKING OF THE TARIFF.

The San Francisco E.cominer Of
last week contains graphic and
striking political illustration of the
workings of the tariff, accompanied by
the following remarks: We give, on
the outside of to-day's issue, a cut rep.
resenting how Radical legislation has
made the rich richer and the poor
pooaer, by means of high protective
duties. The present arrangement is
the most skillfully devised that was
ever acted. Legal ingenuity has
been exhausted in aid OF the manu-
facturers because the immense
amounts derived from high duties
have given the funds to employ every
agency that could assist in the pass
age of such enaotments. The picture
represents the two classes as created
by tariff laws. And they represent
classes that are rapidly increasing
One tending downward to the lowest
level of wretchedness and want, living
from hand to mouth, and the hand fre-
quently almost too chilled and feeble
from want of proper clothing and
nourishment to rise the food to their
chattering teeth. On the other hand
we have the bloated millionaire, roll.
ing in wealth. He feels no want tha,
money can relieve, for the Govern
ment declares that thousands shall
pay him tribute. The shiverine
seamstress, the ard-working laborer
and the skillful shipwright are taxed
that his class may revel in luxury
while they are condemned to idleness
and by want of work are on the very
verge of starvation. Argument is moi
necessary. The picture of wealth and
poverty is the representation of what
protection is accomplishing. 1t seeks
to hand the poorer classes of our peo
pie, shorn of independence, over tc
the tender mercies of grasping mon
| opolists.

TExAs,-There is a prospect OF
lively times in Texas, says the Mss
ouri Republican. The Radical Gov
ernor, Davis, and the Radical Legisla-
ture are at loggerheads. The Legis-
lature wants to meet in extra session,
in September, for some purpose, and
the Governor wants TO prevent the
meeting, if he can-particularly as it
is intimated that the House will at
tempt to impeach him from Office. It
was at first said that the Governor
would issue proclamation forbidding
the special session; bnt the latest
givings out are that he will lock the
doors of the Capitol building, and call
upon the Federal troops in Austin to
keep ont the intruders. The extra
session is called for September.

THE DECLINE m WHEAT.

During the past week wheat has
declined in this market to 90 cents
per bushel. As the price has slight
" advanced in Liverpool and San
Francisco during the same time. this
decline in our local price is inexph-
cable to our farmers and we learn
that they are refusing to sell. As
wheat is quoted at sl.12A in Salem.
at s1.05 at Marion and 81 at Scio,
the farmers in this vicinity are puz-
zled to know why our buyers cannot
give 81 per bushel, with the best
shipping facilities of any warehouses
in the valley.
With strong probability of war
between Russia and Prussia-two Of
the greatest grain growing countries
of Europe; with visable advance in
the Liverpool and San Francisco
markets; with q partial failure of the
California crops; with the population
of home-consumers upon the Pacific
coast vastly augmented from last
year, we certainly see no reason why
the price of our present cereal crop
should be lower than that of last
year. Hence we give it as our hum
BILE opinion that our farmers will yet
realize the coveted and justly earned
one dollar per bushel for every
bushel of grain which they may yet
have to dispose of. We may be mis-
taken, and would not urge upon on,
wheat growers this opinion to theil
detriment; and they will of course
exercise their own judgment and moi
be particularly influenced by any.
thing We may say upon the subject
yet we believe that he who sells fol
less than one dollar per bushel will
regret it hereafter.
