An ANCIENT MYTH, A MODERN FACT
Cyrus W. Field, through whose untiring
eIertions the first telegraphic communi-
cations were established between America
and Europe. is in San Francisco confer
ring with prominent business men and
capitalists on the advisability OF con-
structing an ocean line between San
Francisco and Japan, with branches to
Australia and China. In an interview
with representative of the Chronicle,
Mr.. Field is reported to have said:
81 am not prepared to speak OF our
plans so definitely as yet. No concerted
action can be taken until the soundings
are completed. The legislation that we
need, the cost of the cable. and the
formation of our company are subjects
for after consideration. l am now IN
California for the purpose of talking over
the matter thoroughly with the business
men of San Francisco, who are inter-
ested in so important an undertaking.
l may say. however, that l am welded
to the project and there is not the slight
est doubt that. sooner or later, the cable
will be laid and successfully operated. v
The laying OF telegraphic cable be-
tween the Western coast Of America and
the above named countries is, as Mr.
Field says, simply a question of time
The ever increasing needs of the COM
merciai spirit of the age will shortly de
mand its construction as necessity, and
the enterprise will be at once com
menced The nature of undertakings Of
this character are so much better under
stood than they were at first, that risk
and cost can now very accurately be est
mated. This greater certainty, coupled
with the necessities OF daily extending
commerce, will soon render Shakespear'
mythical girdle around the world VERT
able fact.

PARIS, June 3.-In the Assembly to-
day the debate on the electoral
bill was continued. Ledru Rollin
made the principal speech. He
denied that the Assembly had the
right to alter the franchise. He
said the present system of elections
should not be changed. He denounced
the Plebiscitum as parody on universal
suffrage. This elected loud protests
from the Bonapartist benches and cheers
from the Left. The confusion was SO
great that the speaker could not be
heard for some minutes. The excite
ment subsidized, and M. Rolln resumed
his speech, abiding to the failure of the
majority to restore the monarchy or even
to form government. He declared
that the Assembly being powerless to
constitute monarchy, should maintain
a republic, which had not been scarcely
tried, and concluded by urging the
speedy dissolution OF the Chamber.
Theirs to-day received deputatiou
from Paris, and in reply to their address
said he believed in the maintenance Of
peace, which was also in accordance with
the wishes Of Europe.

Tucson, May 20.-The following is
from the last Citizen: The Orc Blanco
mining district is the principal excite
ment at present. Several new discov-
cries this week have drawn many people
that way. The lodges were large and
we'll defined in granite formation, with
abundance of 5000 quartz. The largest
vein yet known to exist was located by
c. o. Brown, and called the Ward. 1t
is superior in size and richness to any
gold mine on the Pacific coast The
arastras now at work ON the original Orc
Blanco will soon clean up and large
number of ounces will be taken out.
Some large and beautiful specimens Of
silver ore, nearly pure silver, from the
Scranton district, will be brought in this
week. Work is steadily progressing on
these mines, and the size and richness OF
the leads warrant great developments.
They are of the truest and best descrip-
ton. The great want is water. A well
is being sunk, and if it is success there
will be large amount of work done

To the Editor Of the American
Your readers may like to read few
lines from this part OF the Country in re-
lation to the prospects of the farmers the
condition of society, &c. The hay in this
County is all cut and farmers, are now
cutting their grain The crop is fair and
there is greater number Of acres under
cultivation than ever before. The reason
is-the railroad has reached this part O f
the state and there is chance TO market
their grain; and yet nearly every man YOU
meet, cries down the builders Of the road
to the lowest degree, and try to prove
that railroads are injurious to The pros
perity Of the Country, and at the same
time they cry up saloons and whiskey
dens as Indispensable to the happiness of
the people. Any man in the east who de-
sires to live where it is popular to be a
whiskey topper let him come to Oregon,
But let him come with plenty of money
as this is no place for poor man. Wag-
es for common laborers are from fifty
cents to one and half dollars per day,
according to the season of the year.
Land is high, and yet the land holders
make publications in the east that this is
the place for poor man to get him a
home" When the fact is there are but
few farms on which man can settle and
make it pay for itself. Society is corrupt.
The Sabbath is holiday with most of
the people. No one is considered a man
till he carries his dirk or revolver by his
side. / have seen more shooting and
stabbing, drinking and gambling in one
day in Oregon than ever saw in Maine
in twenty years. Yet there are some very
kind people here. and many zealoss Christ
ians. The people are as hospitable as
any in the world. The weather is clear
and bot. Mud nearly dried. so it is quite
good travelling. The crop of bed bugs is
not very good this year, but neas are
abundant. Rmigrants from the east
are returning every day. B.
