THE LAVA OVERFLOW OF OREGON
Professor LIE Conte, at a recent meeting of
the California Academy of Sciences, stated
that the great overflow of lava in the west
Proceeded from the Cascade Mountains in
Oregon, which were of themselves one vast
mass of lava. From this point the lava
overdowed a great portion of Oregon,
Washington Territory, all of nothern Cal,
ifornia, and vast sections of Nevade, Mon,
tana and Idaho. The lava floor covered
an area of at least two hundred thousand
square miles, as far as explored, and it
would probably be found to extend over a
surface of three hundred thousand square
miles, as its limit northwest had never been
determind. The depth of the lava crust
varied from upwards of three thousand feet
in the Cascade and Blue Mountain region
TO one and two hundred feet and less at re-
mote points on the outer edge of the over
fow. When the tremendous gorge of the
Columbia river cut through The lava bed,
it had depth of three thousand five hun
lred feet. The eruption was comparative
y recent, belonging to the latter part of the
niocene period, extending perhaps into the
)osv-.ertiary

Your ready intelligence will teach you

Your ready intelligence will teach you
that this discretion is lodged with the
court for wise purposes-it could not safely
be lodged in town meeting. You know
that the winds must be tempered to the
shorn lamb, and it marks the progress of
the Great Masters cause, that with the ad-

opened, and cruel and degrading punish

venge.
Allow me to remind you Of the punish
ments inflicted in England within two CEN
turies last passed. Then, had a poor,
starving beggar stolen but one of your jew
els now flashing before me, even though ex-
pended for bread-nsy but feather from
your hat-death would have been his por.
ton, and thousands died upon the scaffold
for no greater crime than that.
Many fair girls face. a. soft and
bright, with eyes as mild and loving as any
now before me, for stealing but an article
of personal adornment, a ring. or pre-
cious stone, has blackened in the sun.
light, and her supple form stiffened in the
winds. Were such cruel punishment in
ficted in our days, we would hear an ear
neat protest from your warm hearts, but no
such spectacle will ever cross your vision,
thanks to that feature of human nature,
which even the trail of the serpent could
not obliterate. In passing sentences it is
wise to consider all the circumstances, and
there cannot justly be an inaeKible mea-
sure of punishment.
