better and far more remunerative than
four hundred acres only half cultivated

The Oregonidn says: We have been
shown a letter from a gentleman living
in Leroy, Mclean county, ILL.,, which
contains the following: II heard letter
read from a Mr.. Murphy who went from
this place last fall to Yamhill county,
Oregon. He says, Oregon is the most
God-forsaken country on the face of the
earth; so dry that people are driving
their stock to Colorado. There are no
potatoes, so dry people cannot raise
them, and they are worth 50 bushel.
Everything is dried up, and all the old
farmers are trying to sell out and re-
move to Kansas, Iowa, Illinois, Ne
braska, and other places.'n The writer
Of the letter says, 81 have no confidence,
however in what Murphy says" Now,
we are not acquainted with the Murphy
referred to, but we will venture to say
that he is vastly more "God-forsakenn
than the country which he so falsely
denounces. And, besides, every citizen
of the State knows that his statements
above referred to are false in every re-
spect, not one of them having a shadow
of truth from beginning to end. There
is no State in the Union with as few
drawbacks in an agricultural point of
view, and it is only because occasionally
some such a grumbler and falsifier as
the Murphy referred to, by some means
happens to come amongst us, that any
other impression ever gets abroad con-
eerning Oregon. To those who have
ever been in Oregon a denial Of Mr..
Murphy's statements is not necessary,
and it is only for the information oi
those who have not a personal knowl-
edge of our climate, resources, etc, thai
we deem it necessary TO thus defend the
country from his untrut hful and Sian.
derous statements.
