a proud man is fool in fermenta-
tion, swelling and boiling like a por-
ridge-pot. He sets his feathers like an
owl, to swell and seem bigger than he
is. He is troubled with an in6amma-
ton of self-conceit, that renders him
the man of pasteboard and a true buck
ram knight. He has given himself
sympathetic love powder, that works
upon him to dotage, and transforms
himself into his own mistress, making
most passionate court TO his own dear
perfections, and worshiping his own
image. All his upper stories are
crammed with masses of spongy sub
stances, occupying much spaee-as
feathers and cotton will stuff cushions
better than things of more compact and
solid proportion.

shOefng Horses I'm Turkey.

Travellers in Turkey describe two
different ways of shoeing horses in Tur-
Key and Russia, which may seem very
awkward compared with the simple
method of the American smiths. In
Turkey and Servia, the horse is held by
one man, another holds the leg on his
arms, while a third operates on the
foot. In Russia the horse is placed on
square cage made of rough planks of
wood, and is strapped round the belly
with wide leather straps attached to
eross-bars of the framework; his head
is also tied safely; the foot is fixed to a
stake in the ground and held by an as
sistsnt, while the smith places the shoe
on.

TARTAR LOVE SONG.
81 WALLACE E. AATHER


Three DAYS across the desert,
Three nights with the stars oerhsad,
From the tents Of my father ANA kindred
To the tents Of my love We hed
Silent We rode the frst dag,
Fearing and looking back
For my father and his spssrmen,
Who would follow upon our track.
Hoping, rode we the second,
And spoke to each other in cheer,
SIS We looked toward the fsT-off mountains
That the tents of my love were near.
Nor fear nor hope the third day
Our ewes or hearts could move;
For our eyes we're turned to each others.
And our hearts only beat to love.
Three DAYS scross the desert,
Three nights with the stars o'eThead,
Fearing, hoping and loving.
To the tents q my love We hed.

mittee consisted Of four democrats

Our readers will be able to judge
for themselves the intent Of the

to the Germans who are finding fault
with FIR. Reeve that they object to
the offensive language in his speech
and not to the amendment as pro-
posed, and for this they may justify

A Word About Assessments.

To the Editor of the Republican.
SR:-It appears that the assessor
Of North township either does not
know how to do his official business,
or he wishes to favor some persons
by assessing their property lower
than others. It Is just as hard on me
to pay an unjust assessment through
ignorance rs through partiality. I
call attention to the following: A.
Abshirs, my neighbor, had his per-
sonal property assessed at $50. Any
person knows he had twice rs much,
or more than twice as much. Ny
personal property was assessed at
S275, and know do not have near
a. much - he has. William Hel-
lands personal property was assess
cd at $2O5, and do not think he over
had that much property. Charles
Moen, at LaPaz, had his store, ETC.,
assessed at $3.50, or Whereabouts. He
would have got of lightly II he had
been put at $500.

native heath . wiser man II not . bet

and specifically disgustsd with legis-
lativs glory. More men than Mr..
Reeve might well be ashamed Of hav-
ing belonged to this legislature. It
was fraud from the beginning, and
has continued to Be . humbug. Not
. law has been passed that is Of the
least benefit to the people of the
State. The appropriation bill had to
be passed, and even that was delayed
until special session had to be
called in order TO get it through. No

tinue 90 until the day Of his death.

nTHE TENNESSEE IuBILEEs. y

We find in circular furnished to US
a biographical sketch of the famous
Tennessee Jubilee Singers" who have
been delighting large audiences in this
State with their quaint melodies during
the past few weeks. 1t appears that all
of the members of the troupe were slaves
until freed by the exigencies Of war and
the conditions of the Emancipation
Proclamation" Ever since that period
they have made their way in the world,
procuring a livelihood for themselves
and acquiring an education that fits
them to move in the best circles of So
eiety.
The Fisk University, an institution
located st Nashville, Tennessee, for ed
ucating persons of their race, was built
by money raised by them in their con-
certs. 1t is handsome, six.story brick
edifice, elegantly finished and furnished
throughout, and is capable of accommo-
dating 25O students. 1t is said to edu-
cate pupils for all the duties of life, from
preparing meal to solving the myster-
les of higher mathematics, the classics,
and theology. Five gentlemen and
eight ladies compose the faculty. These
teachers are white persons, and are in
every way capable of promoting the
culture of the pupils.
We often hear of self-made men, ant
the men, and women as well, who com
pose this troupe deserve, if the sketch
before US is true one, much credit fol
the endeavors each and every one has
made for self-advancement. Talent
culture, perseverance, self-respect, anC
honorable endeavor have neither ract
or sex, and are recognized and com
mended by persons Of principle, whethe
those who possess and acquire them ar

LETTER FROM DOUGLAS COUNTY.

To THE EDITOR OF THE NEW NORTHWEST:
Cleveland Lodge, No. $50, I. o. G.. T.,
at this place intends having public in
stallation of their officers, on the even
ing of May 5th, 1877. The exercises to
consist of music, instrumental and vo-
cal, declamations, essays, dialogues,
speeches, etc. During the day the ex-
ercises will be similar, with the addition
of general picnic dinner will be en-
joyed. A speaker will be engaged to
deliver a Temperance Address. The
requisite committees have been ap-
pointed, and it is their desire to have a
general good time and a grand Temper
ance Rally.
The committee on programme for the
day have appointed me to deliver a dec
lamation, and while thinking what 1
should select, bethought myself of
this idea: The people of this eommu-
nifty seem to be dead, as it were, to the
live issues of the day on the Woman
Suffrage question, and would it not be
advisable to select a piece on the SUBJ
ject of "Women in the Temperance
Movement" or something to arouse
them from their lethargy, and awaken
them to true realization of their du-
ties, as mothers, wives, and sisters?
have been taking your excellent
paper THE NEW NORTHWEST, regret
to say but a short time, and am we'll
pleased with it-have been trying to
procure some new subscribers, but as
yet have been unsuccessful, owing, ]
think, to the ignorance of the subject
on the part of the people; they need
some of your lectures to awaken them
to the Importance of the subject. These,
I hope, they will De privileged to heal
at no distant day.
1t seems that, personally, you are al
most a stranger in Southern Oregon,
and I assure you there are very many
in this locality who would be more than
pleased to make your acquaintance and
listen to your elucidation of the doc
trines of equal rights. Everything is
especially lovely here at this season oi
the year. The mild winter and early
spring have given promise of an abund'
ance that the fast-coming harvest
months will surely fulfill, and the
hearts of the husbandmen are CORE,
spondingly rejoiced. c.
