Oregon enjoys some extraordinary natural
advantages. The yield OF wheat this year has
been excellent the wool-clip has been good and
commands good prices, while the ssimon yield
alone amounts to ne1rly S2,o0o,00o. THIS Inter
industry is growing rapidly. There are already
thirteen canning and curing establishments in
operation at Portland: and two more in course Of
erection. There is little danger, if proper pre-
cautions are used, Of e1hausting the supply Of
these delicate fish, for one full-grown femnle
lays 6,o0o00o eggs every year, aud, il but i small
proportion Of the family reach maturity. the
supply will exceed any demand likely to be made
in many years. Blessed With an 1ne1haustible
supply OF salmon, and the absence OF joaquin
Miller granted, what else can Oregon ask for!

The moet heartless case Of kidnapping oc~
Cured in Cincinnati. It was cruel, because the
person kidnapped was dead and could offer 10
resistance. The person who kidnapped him WAS
an undertaken. The corpse WAS that OF q Eoor
old man who died suddenly and Was taken to
the Alorgue, whera the undertaken found him.
Tho latter then took the body 10 his store,
equipped it for the grave, and awaited q
claimant. The body was subsequently, recog-
nized by son Of the old man, but the under-
taker refused to give it up until bill of $40 had
been paid on it. The son secured it eventually
BY writ Of replevin. Tais sort Of body snatch
ing is more disgusting than that Of the profess
slonal resurrectionist. The secret of the matter
was that the undertaken was city Official.

The telegraph has already furnished Eretty
full details OF the tragedy at Creston, Iowa. but
some additional facts have come by mill OF q
very remarkable nature. It will be remembered
that the murderer was J. r. Burnett, and the
murdered man, J. l.. Briste1, his ssep-son. Mrs
Brister, since the arrest OF Burnett, las made an
affidavit which invests the crime with new and
very singular character. In her affidavit, she
says that she formerly lived in Barnes7lle,
Belmont County, Ohio, where she married
Brister. In tue spring OF 1874, )1er husband in
formed her that he had sold her to James T..
share his happiness Subsequently, in Bed
ford, Iowa, Burnett cerao into her room
ono night and told her that be had
given her husband one-haH OF his property and
NOW owned her. He cohaDi.ed with her that
night; aud the next day, Brister, apparently
tired Of Lis bargain, abused her for submitting
to him, and went away. Burnett. however, con-
soIed his remarkable property by assuring her
Lo should defend her and kill Brister il he ever
came back. Meantime, Brister went to Charlton
and wrote threatening letters, which SO fright
encd his wife that aho begged to be sent back to
Ohio. Burnett, instead OF 80 doing, moved with
her to Creston. He soon tired Of his property.
Br1ster came back to Creston, and had IN inter-
view with Burnett, which resulted in 81 agreement
between them, for certain SUM loaned by Bur-
nett to Brister, TINT the latter should again take
possession of his wife. BriBter refused to sign
the papers. because they drew interest, and Bur-
nett then seized upon tho first opportunity to
kill Brister, which ho accomplished By cutting
his throat. The tragedy is one OF the most re-
markable on record. The ignorance and weak
ness Of the woman are hardly more amazing
than the fondishness OF these two b1utes, de-
Hberately taking advantage Of her Ignorance to
buy and sell the possession OF her body. While
great pity will be felt for the wretched woman,
she is the only one who deserves any commits
Grafton. Her brutal husband has met with .
fate which he deserved, aud when the moose is
around the neck Of the murderer he will meet
the fate which he deserves. It ahould be some
consolation to her, then, that s1e is happily rid
OF both

TIE MYSTERIES or LUNACY.

The very remarkable statement OF 3Ir. Plum
bridge, which we published yesterday, brings up
the whole question OF insanity. Pasaing from
this case Of alleged unjust confinement on the
ground Of insanity. which We commend to tho at
te1,tion Of 11r. Charles Eeade, We find that the
element Of the mysterious in lunacy is very
large, whether wo consider its causes or itB con-
sequences. In some cases, for example, it ia
very difficult to determine whether bless-
ing or 3 curse. but in no case can it be called
punitive Or rcfo;:' Dry. It may be, and gener-
ally is, tho result. immediate OF remote
OF mental anguish originating exclusively in the
mind, or growing cut Of physical disorder !;
.but it can hardly be regarded as punishment it
it's victim is unconscious Of it. CONSCIOUSNESS
of punst'ncnt is essential to its efficacy. Only
the sane may feel the stings OF conscience or the
upbraidings of m enlightened understanding.
And tue suffering Of the ingano is variable e1-
perienco. Some OF them do undoubtedly suffer
keenly. but many again, porha2s most, are free
from torture, while others give Us every reason
TO helieyethat they are much happier out Of their
heads than in them. That many persons are far.
less mischieTous when they lose their minds than
whilo they are in possession OF them will also
be admitted
Ono Of the moet conclusive evidences TINT tha
wicked are not visited with lunacy A. punish
nent of their misdeeds is tho fact that 10 1nanv
OF them, in passing from sanity to insanity, pass
from state Of absolute uretchedness to one of
posilive enjoyment. The rcmorse which de-
thrones the reason at the satne time eilonces the
constance. II would lsam ~ though tho arrov

| 1Ir. Beec1er is wise. if he cares for his good
him, ho will have the case transferred to tho
courts Immediately. There arc various ways
to do this. Beechcr may be indicted for
adultery, or Tiltou for libel; or Beechor may sue
Tuton in civil action for damages for dofama-
ton; or Tuton may sue Beecher for damages in
alternating his wife's affections and destroying
Ills home. Each has tho power to bring the
matter into court. Once before tie courts, Miss
Anthony and Moulton could be compelled to
appear and tell T1at they know. It would then
be known certainly whether BeecLer was
guilty or Tilton q slandcrer. The reputation
Of both parties now demands judicial
inquiry into all ne facts of the Gaze.
Unless such an inquiry ia instituted.
Beecher will still bo suspected by thousands OF
his couutrymen as lypocrite aud dobaucher;
Tilton by as many more blackmaer aud Aan-
dercr. It is not possible that both Beecher and
Tilton are criminals. It il not possible that
both are innocent. Let the innocent party trans
fer tho whole controversy from the Brooklyn III
vestigating Committee to the courts, aud then
satisfactory judicial verdict may be rendered,

The nopro,iau Drama.

Some one who has visited the Chinese
theater in San Francisco says: Battle
scenes are stock ingredient of the
Chinese drama, and are conducted on a
principle totally ut variance with all
our modern ideas of warfare, 1t is no
uncommon feat for the hero to dismiss
his army, and single-handed conquer
the enemy, merely using his soldiers as
pursuing force. The stage, which is
limited. in that the orchestra occupy
nearly the whole of it, is merely a plat
form hanked by the walls of the house,
lit up by some four or five footlights
and two attenuated gas-pipes pendant
on either side of the house, which ter
inmate in numerous gas jets far more
useful than ornamental. In the rear
screen, festooned with spears, armor,
musical instruments and diabolical
characters, serves as PARTON TO veil
the dressing-rooms and green-room
from the eye of the casual observer,
and two curtained doors are the means
of exit and entrance. 1t has never been
our misfortune to hear the overture, if
one be played, but judging by the de-
scriptive music and singing during the
progress of the play, which would make
an excellent accompaniment for wander
ing minstrel cats, nothing has been
lost

No branch Of science has been more
thoroughly mastered than optics. The
principle of vision must be essentially
the same in all eyes, but they differ re
markably, according to the habits Of the
animal. Birds Of lofty flight, as the
condor, eagles, vnltures and carrion-
seeking prowlers Of the feathered race,
have telescope visions, and thus they
are enabled to look down and discover
their unsuspecting victims. As they
approach noiselessly from above, the
axis of vision changes-shortening, 50
that they can see as distinctly within
one foot Of the ground as when at an
elevation Of one mile in the air.
This fact explains the balancing Of a
6sh-hawk on its pinions, half a mile
above q still pond, watching for fish.
When one is selected, down the savage
hunter plunges, the focal axis varying
always TO the square view Of his in
tended prey. As they ascend, the axis
is elongated By a curious muscular ar
so as TO see far OF again.
Snails have their keen eyes at tae ex-
tremity Of flexible horns, which they
can protrude or draw in at pleasure.
By winding the instrument round the

how matters stand on the opposite side.

THE DAGGER OF RAYAILLAC.

In relating q certain romantic Incl
dent of Paris life, the Figaro maintains
that all the circumstances it details in
the matter are strictly true. They re-
late to singular attempt at suicide
Everybody knows (remarks the Figaro,
from whose columns We translate these
facts) the circumstances under which
Henri ~ was assassinated by Ravaillac,
in the Rue de la Ferronierie. Ravaillac,
thrusting his arm through the window
of the royal carriage, struck the King
two blows with knife, the weapon at
the second stroke piercing to the heart
Then for moment he brandished the
knife defantly; but he was Immediately
arrested, and the weapon taken from him
by an Italian attached to the person of
the Due d'Epernon, enc Petro de Ma
laghino. When the court on the day of
the trial of Ravaillac-May "a, 1878
reclaimed this knife. Malaghino de-
clared that he had lost it in the crowd.
This was falsehood. The Italian hav-
ing for his hobby the collecting of Gu
riosities, had secreted the knife of Ra-
vaillac, and he kept it all his life, leav-
ing it as precious relic to his descend
ants. e
Through some vicissitudes now un-
known the knife passed into the hands
of the Marshall Maurice de SAKE, who
in 1850 presented it to his physician,
DR.. Senac. He dying shortly after left
it to his son, NJ. Senae de Meilhan, who
gave it to certain Marquise de Crequi
with series of complimentary verses,
beginning: fao
De ce couteau d 'un resicide,
Recevez le don. belle Armide,
This "belle Armide," that is, the
Marchioness Crequi, left the historical
knife to her cousin Baron Blanchfort.
After further changes in ownership, it
came last year into the possession of
young student, Monsieur Philippe
M. This young man, who
occupied little room in the Rue des
Acacias led a hard life, struggling
against poverty, and generally getting
worsted in the combat. On several oc-
casions, he tried to sell the knife OF
Ravaillac, but he valued it at two thou
sand francs, which was more than any
body would pay him for it. A few weeks
ago he found himself without a cent and
with nothing to eat.
He would not think for moment Of
abating the price of the knife of Ravail-
lac so, Frenehman-like, he determined
to kill himself with it. He gave him
self a violent thrust in the cheat, having
FIRST left on his table the following alb
surd note:
To the Monsieur the commissary of Police:
Let no person be charged with my
death. / 90 to rejoin Henri IV. If | had
not been SO feeble / would have killed
myself in the Rue de la Ferronnerie.

Marriage customs In Ola Britain

/
When the Anglo-Saxons settled in
Britain the patriarchial system was in
full force. The father was absolute
master in his own family he sold his
daughter in marriage, his son in slavery.
When ST. Augustine landed in the Is
! land the maiden was a simple article of
property, her price fixed at so many
head Of cattle. The primitive mode of
procuring a wife was this: When q
youth had fixed his choice ppon a
maiden, he went with a band of friends
sud carried her of, probably with her
own secret connivance. The relations
followed in hot pursuit, feud between
the families ensued, and was only ap-
peased by the lover agreeing to pay the
valne fixed upon by the father for re-
tanning possession Of the maid, he CIV
ing a wed, or security for his per.
formnnce of the contract - hence
tie werd wedding, This custom
Of stealing the bride is as an
cient as the Spartans and is
still kept up in Brittany, where it forms
one OF the ceremonies Of the marriage
festivities. The bargain made, the
amount Of the morning gift y settled
upon, the contracting parties took each
other by the hand and proclaimed them
selves man and wife; the ring was placed
on the drst finger Of the left hand and
the father, having received the purchase
money, delivered his daughter over to
her husband. The transfer of authority
was made BY q syulbolieal gifti the
father delivered the brides shoe to the
bridegroom, and the latter touched her
oves the head with it-a ceremony which
took its origin in the custom OF placing
the foot or the neck Of slave, and was
typical Of the wife's subjection 10 her
hnsband--a ceremony still preserved IN
the popular custom Of throwing the
