Oregon Correspondence.

1.-THE following is an extract from a
letter received by DR.. Coburn, from
Mr.. F. L. Hall, recently student in
his Office !:
EUGENE CRY, OREGON, May 20, '7S.
Dear Uncle -
Your most welcome letter
was received on the 18th. | was very
glad to hear from Tionesta.
l arrived here all safe, but can't say
was entirely sound. My sea voyage
did not agree with me. I had hardly
left the Golden Gate, until l became
very sea-sick, and did not get ON deck
but once, and that was to see a school
of whales there were five of them.
We were four days on the ocean and
one day and a half on the Columbia
and Willamette Rivers. 1 enjoyed
the river scenery very much. The
rivers here are full of fish, princi-
pally salmon and trout.
stayed all night in Portland, and
starting early in the morning, reached
here at 2 p. M. April 25th. Just one
year ago | went to Tionesta at that
time l did not dream of being 1000
miles away in one year.
The first man inquired of for my
employer was Mr.. Osborne himself,
who was expecting me. He lives
about six miles from town, out in the
coast range of mountains. My con-
veyance was saddle mule. The road
was rough, and rather worse than up
to Chris. Crops.
1 am making cheese in an extensive
factory. 1t is situated on the east side
OF Spencer Butte, large mountain.
The rancho consists Of 100 acres. We
have 100 COWS and make six cheese a
day. work about six hours a day,
aud have plenty of help. Can study
rest Of the time. Money seems to be
plenty and is all gold or silver. La
Dor is very high. Cows are only worth
$40 to Sl2 each, and cheese sells for
10 to l63 cents per pound, at whole
sale. There is money in the business
here.
We are in sight of snow the year
around. There is plenty Of game here,
such as bear, deer, antelope, mountain
lions, elk, black and gray wolves, rab-
bits, grouse, woodcOck, etc., etc. Iu
the winter, or rainy season the coun-
try is said to be alive with wild geese,
ducks and other waterfowl.
l think this beats all other places l |
have ever seen. l like it extremely
we'll, so far, better than any of the
Western States l have been in. OIL
course there are some drawbacks one
is that it is quite dry fo- about six
months, and then rainy for nearly the
same length Of time this is the reason
people are said to be aoeb, footed who
live here long, so that they can swim
more readily.
Our nearest neighbors are one mile
away. We pack our cheese TO market

to have said, when in this city last Winter Spring
that she either had the original of the so-called
Sherman letter or knew where it was. Her testi-
mony in regard to this document has therefore been
expected by the Democrats to be even more sensa-
tonal than that of Anderson. She arrived in Wash
ingtOn several days ago. She is reported to have
been in consultation with prominent men connected
directly OF indirectly with the Potter investigations
but she refuses to have any interviews with the cor
respondents. In spite of this fact a report was in
circulation among the Democrats at the Capitol to-
day that her testimony would be disappointment
that she would swear that she never had the
original of the Sherman letter; and that
instead of supporting Anderson's testimony, she
would entirely vindicate Secretary Sherman. This
report which gained very general credence, has
caused good deal of excitement among the Demo-
Gratis, and there have been endless that Mrs.
jerks has been constantly in consultation with
Secretary Sherman's counsel since she has been
here aud that she has been successfully coached for
the occasion of hor examination. OF course there
is no truth in the latter part of this report 1t is
possible that Mr.. Shellabarger and Mr.. Wilson, Mr.
Shermans counsel, may have seen her, but they are
gentlemen of such high character and standing that
nobody will dare to accuse them openly of suggest
ing to Mrs. jerks to tell anything except the truth
about this matter
If Mrs. jerks does not fail to throw some light ON
the existence of the Sherman letter the Democratic
case against the Secretary of the Treasury will
probably end NJ that point. AndeTson's testimony
in regard TO this letter has been repeatedly shown to
be worthless. The pretended copy he has was never
compared with the original, If such existed, and
was itself simply copy of copy made by dicta-
ton As a piece of evidence it is of no consequence
whatever, and would not bc accepted by any justice
of the peace in the land.
Among other reports now in circulation is one
that Governor Tilden's connection with the Potter
investigation that of some of his friends will be
shown in the testimony taken either by the House
or the Senate committee. The story is that AnGer-
son has boosted within day or two that Mr.. j. Il.
SYpher, who appears as his counsel, has received
fee of $4,000 for the work he is now engaged
In. OF course 10 such fee as this nor
any fee has been paid by Anderson himself, and an
attempt will be made to trace this money to New
York. Whether there is any truth in this report
not it is impossible TO ascertain tonight but il will
undoubtedly he inquired into by the Senate COM
mlttee, or by the Republicans on the Potter COM
mttee, when the proper witnesses are on the stand
