Nothing SO strongly indicates the man
of pure and wholesome thought as habi-
ual purity of speech. By his conversa-
ton, among his own kind, you may al
ways pretty accurately form an opinion
as TO the moral worth of a man. It is
there, where no restraint is supposed to
be placed upon his words, that you dis
cover his true nature. If he is given to
looseness of discourse, or his mind wan
ders to the discussion of subjects pro-
scribed in mixed company Or respccta-
BILE society, you may justly mark him
as one with whom association is unde-
sirable.

MARRIDD.--Ex-Judge G. Ben. Oar
win, the free-lover, who left Washing
ton Territory several years ago, with
the wife of his friend, has found anoth-
er affinity. The woman he scduced
from her husband and home on the
ground of her being his spiritual affinity,
died in San Francisco under an opera
ton to produce abortion, to which ho
was a party; her mother is in the Insane
Asylum at Stcilacoom, public charge;
and he has. found another affinity, a
Mrs. Margaret Sweeney, to whom he
was recently married What pity he
did not make the acquaintance of Mra.

Registered Letters.

The Postmaster General, according
to Washington special, is considera-
bly, amused over newspaper discus
sion about the liability of postmasters
for the loss of registered letters. He
says that neither postmasters nor the
Postof6ce Department are at all respon-
sible in such cases. Exchange.
Commenting on the above, the Port.
land Herald says That's it. The
Government holds out inducements for
you to intrust your money to its keep
ing tells you it win be safe you take
its word, intrust your money to a Gov
ernmenf officer it is stolen you COM
plain the Postmaster General is s. con
siderably amused, " and tells you nobody
is responsible except the man who lost
the money. You find out some rascally
official has stolen your money, have
him arrested, tried, convicted. sent to
the Penltentiary as thief; but Presi-
dent Grant pardons him out as he did
Hodge; that's the way it works; no
body responsible. "Best Government
on earth )" but your money is gone and
the thief is set free; best Govern
ment on earth-s second Washington to
administer it, and the Postmaster Gen
eral is considerably amused" too,
while the thief is rioting ON your money;
and he il amused when the President
pardons him; in fact everybody con-
cerned in the matter is amused except
the party who has lost the money; he
can't see where the fun comes in. But,
best Government on earth-second
Washington-great man, silent but
thinks a heap fights it out on this
line. Bully!" the people like it

convicted thieves, pardons.

The Boston Reliet Committee has
discovered class of poor people whose
existence had hardly been known be-
fore. They are poor Portuguese, who
are congregated at the North lEad of
the city to the number of some 5000.
They emigrated chiefly from Fayal,
the mon being mostly sailors, while the
women earn q miserable livelihood by
sowing. Many Of them were among
the needlewomen who lost their occupa-
ton by the fire.

heart if she is g hot 1t is much prct-

Assessor of.


Ps'ovided, That when taxpayer
owns taxable property in two or more
counties in the State he should have the
benefit cf his indebtedness in proper
ton to his taxable property in such
counties
9. Whereas, therefore, some assess
ors have not shown on the roll the de-
duction of $500 exemption allowed by
law, while others have, it is desirable
that hereafter the uniform practice to
assess all property subject to taxation,
appropriate column, and then make the
authorized deduction.
TO- Where the personal property of
any householder is less than the $500
exempt by law, the exemption noted on
the roll should only equal the amount
of such personal property.
IL. In no case should the amount of
Indebtedness and exemption of tax
payer appear to exceed the amount of
his property. Thus, if the amount of
an individuals taxable property is five
hundred dollars and he swears to all in
dcbtedness of five thousand, sum on
ly equal to the amount of his property
should appear in the columns of indebt-
edness and exemption, since the excess
of his debts over his assets is fact of
no benefit to the county or State, but
tends to create confusion.
12. 1t is advised that the capital
stock and other property of all banking
and other companies, where not other
wise more convenient, should be assess
ed to each company in its corporate
name.
13. In cases where parties are bonds
men or sureties for others, such obliga-
tions do not constitute an Indebtedness
to be allowed as a set-of against taxa
ton.
IA. Assessors arc reminded that the
law requires them to collect the poll
tax as it is assessed.

DIRECTIONS TO COUNTY ASSESSORS
Rules and Regulations Relating to the
Duties of assessors, Adopted
by the State Board of
E0ualiZatiOn.

Equalization.
1. County Assessors are reminded of
the Importance of commencing their du-
ties as required by law on the first day
of March in each year and of proceed
ing without delay to complete them be-
fore the last Monday in August, which
should be done without fail, in order
chat the County Board may examine
and pass the roll to the State Board by
the second Monday in September.
2. As uniformity in the assessment
rolls of the various counties of the
State is essential, a blank roll is furnish
ed to each assessor, which should be
filed up substantially in the form shown
by the sample page accompanying it
3. Land should in all cases be de-
scribed by section, township and range,
and when consisting of legal subdivis-
ions such should be described
A. In order to avoid the numerous
omissions now made in the assessment
of real estate the maps required by the
law should be kept posted up SO as tc
show the assessor the actual present
owner of each and every tract of which
the title has passed from the United
States or from the State of Oregon.
5. In appraising lands due regard
should be had to locality, nearness tc
market and to all particulars affecting
their salable cash value, which should
in all cases be the standard of valua
ton both of real and personal property
6. 1t is desirable that the assessor
himself and not the assessed should be
the judge of values by personal inspec.
ton whenever practicable.
Z. Greater care is required on the
part of the assessor not to omit assess
ing the lands and other property Of
corporations, such as wagon road, rail
road and telegraph companies, and all
associations holding lands, whether
by grant from Congress or otherwise
S. Assessors should deduct the tax
payers Indebtedness wishin the State
only, and in all cases comply with the
law requiring the amount of indebt-
edness to be given under oath. and
when taxpayer desires to claim an
Indebtedness, the following oath should
be administered

And mine at times Is haunted
By phantoms OF the pact,
As motionless - shadows
BY the silent moonlight cast.

That Is not seen BY day,
For a. soon ~ the dawn approaches
Itvanishss away.
II sits there in the moonlight.
Itself as pale and still,

Without, before the window,
There etands gloomy pine.
whose boughs wave upward and downward
Az waves these thoughts OF mine.
And underneath Its branches
L. the grave Of . little child.
Who died upon lifo's threshold,
And never wept nor rmiled.
What arc 70 o pallid phantomsi
That haunt my troubled brain.
That vanish when day approached,
And at night return asains
What are ye o pallid phantous!
But the statues without breath,
That stand on the bridge overarching
The silent river of death.

ASSIMILATION.

One of the remarkable features of Christi
auity, is that it makes all its adherents
bear to each other likeness. There is a
family resemblance. Find Christians where
you will, and they all bear the same general
characteristics. The Christian in Asia, and
the Christian in America, are alike. They
love the same things, and they hate the same
things. In the same land they may be called
by different names; but their nature is the
same. Their hopes, their consultations, their
joys, and their sorrows, are the same. Their
work is the same, and their means of accom-
plishing it are the same. No observing man
can have failed to discover the wonderful
harmony of action and sentiment which pre-
walls amongst all good and pious Christians
They may subscribe to antagonistic creeds,
but when they meet as Christians, these diff:
ferences vanish into mist. There are no diff
ferences existing between any of Gods peo-
pie respecting experimental religion. On
this subject they are unit. They may quar-
rel over the technical expressions contained
in their creeds, but with regard to the religion
which is generated by the Spirit of God in
their hearts, there is an assimilation so great,
so strong, and so striking, that they all are
one.

WHAT ALLIED OLIVER?

"Get up, little boy! You are lying in bed
too long breakfast soon will be ready. The
canary bird hath taken his bath, and is now
singing sweet song. Get up, get up, or l
shall throw this pillow at you"
That is what sister Charlotte said to Oliver
Reed, one frosty morning in November. He
was good little fellow; but he had one fault,
he was too fond of lying in bed in the morn
ing. ,
"Don't throw the pillow at me-" cried
Oliver; "I'll promise to get up in five min
utes."
eff you would he healthy, wealthy, and
wise,' you must rise early, little boy" said
Charlotte"
When Oliver came down to the breakfast
table, his father said, "How is this, Oliver ?
You are late again"
Oliver hung his head; and Charlotte said,
81 woke him in good season, sir; but he went
off to sleep again the minute l left the room.
thoug oh he promised to be up in five minutes" ="
II went to sleep and forgot all about it"
said Oliver.
"Come here, my boy, and let me feel Of
your pulse" said his father. 81 should not
wonder if Oliver were suffering from disease
which is very common at this time"
Oliver gave his hand to his father, who,
after feeling his pulse, said: eyes, it is as |
thought. Poor Oliver has Slack's disease
Take him up to bed again. Put his break
fast by the side of the bed and when he feels
strong enough, he can eat it. He may stay at
home from school to-day"
The little boy wondered what Slack's dis
ease could be; but he went up stairs with his
sister and was put to bed. He could not
sleep, however. He heard children playing
out of doors, he heard Ponto barking, and
Tommy, the canary bird, sing sweet song.
Then Olives called his sister, and sale,
"Charlotte, what is Slack's disease? Is it
dangerous p
Il rather think not" said Charlotte. "You
dear little simpleton, don't you know what
father meant? He meant you were troubled
with laziness that's all"
Oliver saw that trick had been played on
him. He jumped out Of bed, dressed, and
ate his breakfast, and ran of to school, where
he arrived just in season.
Since that day, Oliver has been the first up
in the house. He is no longer troubled with
Slack's disease.
