The good fortune of the Guico war

Prince of Wales has como in contact,

amused bewilderment to the English
correspondents. He looks about ten OF

boy is most awkward, uncoutI and ad-

months ago he was poor boy in an
obscure village, of a family occasionally
pinclled for the commonest necessaries

with clothing did not extend beyond
tho primitive dhotic, the life before him
was that of the plodding cultiyator OF a

careful genealogical inquiries, was dis
covered to be collaterally the nearest
heir to the disgraced and deposod Guico
war. He was taken from his village
with all honor, placed with elaborate
ceremonial on the throne Of Baroda !:
the noblest aud State dignitaries owned
the village boy as their master, and

The Umpqua C5aE contains the fol-
lowing interesting description CT the
Umpqua valley. which viii be read
with interest 10y many of our readers !.
The Ulnpqua valley IS next in i'm
portance to tho Willamette, and forms
an important part Of what is known as
Southern Oregon. The climate of this
valley is most delightful, and the scene
ries inspiring.
The UmPqua valley includes tha
whole of Douglas county. and extends
from the Cascade mountains on the
cast to the Pacific on the west, and con-
tains 900 acres of land 1,o00,-
900 Of them arc arabic, and 5000 are
under cultivation. The valley proper
consists of large number of small val
leys, separated from each other by belts
OF timber, high hills and mountain ran
ges. Tho soil of these valleys arc rich
and productive. Tie bottom lands of
tho North and South Umpqua rivers,
the Calipooia Creek, Coles valley,
Garden Bottom, and Camas Swat,
Yonealla and Deer Creek valleys, and
LookInglass prairie, are well adapted
to wheat, oats, barley and Indian corn.
1t is no uncommon occurrence for farm
ers to raise two or three crops OF wheat
or oats with only one ploughing and
sowing, and in the Calipooia Creek val
ley as many as five volunteer crops
have been raised with only one plough
ing. These facts show the productive
ness of the soil and the Incidence of the
farmers. Wheat yields from twenty
five to thirty bushels to the acre, oats
forty bushels, and barley forty bushels.
The climate, soil, high grounds, roll
ing prairies, foothills and mountains Of
the Umpqna valley are the home OF the
sheep. Here are herds ranging from
five hundred TO seven thousand head of
as good sheep as any in the State. The
total number III the valley is about 150,-
900, that yield an average of at least
four and halt pounds to the fleece.
No housing or wintering Of sheep is
required in this valley. An average of
an acre of land is sufficient to feed one
sheep. There are fine mountain ranges
for cattle. Fruit and vegetables are
raised in great variety and perfection.
II is the climate for peaches, plums and
grapes. Tobacco can be raised here to
a considerable extent. Corn natures
here as we'll as in the Western States.

When the clown, with his lively bar

audience, he ran to the entrance of the

CHARLESTON III COLOSSAL TIMES.
LIN colonial times Charleston was
favorite settlement OF the mother coun-
try, owing to the value of its exports
indigo, rice, ard naval stores. In 1871
forty thousand barrels OF rice were ex-
ported, and, as It vas said, sLondon
and Liverpool looked lovingly on the
brisk colony Of the Ashley and Cooper .
Tho sons Of the wealthier planters were
almost universally sent to England to be
educated, no other colony in the New
World sending SO many. Fashions were
brought over for the wives and dangh-
ters Maderia wine, punch, tea, coffee,
and chocolate were in common use and
four-horse coaches rolled up 10 the doors
OF the little churches, now almost lost
in q growth of wild forest. Outdoor
sports were much affected by the plant
crs, who kept fine horses aud dogs, and
hunted over the country in English style,
although on q larger scale than was
possible in that well-bounded well met
ed-ont island. They killed foxes, deer,
and bears, and now and then an Indian,
for the forests were still full of the red-
skinned foes.

A TALL lasgow, in
Scotland, claims TO have tho tallest
chimney in the world. The total height,
from foundation to top of coping is 468
feet, and from ground line to summit,
454 feet outside diameter at foundation
fifty feet; at ground surface thirty-two !;
and at top OF coping nearly eighteen.
The number of bricks used in tue cree
ton was J, 400, 900, equal in weight to
1000 tons. When within five feet of
completion the chimney was struck by
gale from the northeast, which caused
it to sway seven feet nine inches off the
perpendicular, and it stood several feet
less il height than before it swayed.
To bring back the colossal. shaft to its
true vertical position t'sawing back"
had to be re8orted to, four men working
at time saving, and two pouring wa
ter on tile SAYS. Tho work was done
from tho inside. Holes were first
punched through the sides to admit the
saws, which were brought alternately
IN each direction at tie same point on
the side opposite the inclination, so that
the chimney was brought back in a
slightly oseiliating manner. This was
done at twelve different heights, and the
men discovered whe:: they were gaining,
by the saws getting tightcned by tic
