THE work of the last three months

on the roll of the worlds most re

down to posterity coupled with the
great Hamilton and the "War Seq

whole country were upon him,
and his scheme of resumption.
By many it was thought that it
would be a miserable failure, while
its frmest adherents did not dare to
predict anything approaching the
actual result. Time, the wonder
worker, has declared it a success,
and its opponents are correspond

A Natural wonder.

In the survey of the Northern Pa
cifc railroad, under charge of Mr.. d.
Clark, the line runs through one OF
the canyons of the Nisqually river in
which nature has formed curiosity
of more than ordinary interest which
has never been brought into notice
Perhaps briefdescription oft might
be acceptable to your readers.
The Nisqually river rises in the
glaciers of Mt. Rainier and empties
into the sound near Steilacoom. Its
total length is about a hundred miles,
and the volume of water flowing
through its channel is much greater
than would be supposed by one un-
familiar with the swift mountain
streams Of this country. lmproba-
BILE as it may seem, however, several
OF the men of Mr.. Clark's party have
accomplished the feat of bestriding
the river at this point, which is forty
miles from it's mouth. The whole
river runs through the chnanel OF
but a few feet in width, but of un-
known depth, which it has cut in the
solid rock, and at one point the walls
or banks approach within three feet
two inches of each other at distance
of about ten feet above the water
at its present stage. Here the ambi-
tious surveyors (emulating the famil-
lar straddle-bug in evolution, but
surprising him in romantic sentemint)
each in turn bestrode the river, like
the Colossus of Rhodes.
The rocky walls do not overhang
the water and form an arch over it,
as may be supposed, but maintain
their proximity below the surface OF
the water; the average width of the
river bed is perhaps less than six feet
for several yards on either side OF
this point, above and below.
The canyon has many other fea-
lures of interest, and presents scenery
not unworthy of comparison with
the famous canyons OF Colorado, but
this one point is SO peculiar and curl
Gus that it is worthy of note, and
should railroad ever be built here
will undoubtedly become a familiar
and perhaps celebrated natural curl
osity. Yours. w.

NUMBER 22.
POlygamy Doomed.

The Mormon leaders are much ex-
ercised over the decision of the Su-
preme Court sustaining the act passed
by Congress in 1862, prohibiting polyg
amy. The dispatches say case was
brought before the Supreme Court of
the United States by appeal from the
Supreme Court of the Territory of
Utah. Mr.. Biddle of Philadelphia,
who appeared with two lawyers from
Utah, held that the act was aimed at
religious institution, and in consequence
was i'll violation of the first aim of the
Constitution, which declares that Con-
gress shall make no law prohibiting the
free exercise of religion. But the Su-
preme Court decides that the. plea of
religious convictions is not valid de-
fense, and that polygamous marriages
in the Mormon church are not pro-
tected by constitutional provisions.
This is death blow to polygamy, as
there is no further appeal, and persons
convicted of bigamy in Utah must suf-
fer fine or imprisonment, or both. The
Chief Justice desires to revise the de-
cision before it is published. 1t is un-
derstood to receive the endorsement of
the full bench, although Judge Field
dissented as to the admissibility of cer-
tain evidence 1t is to be hoped that
the last appeal having been taken, and
the law against polygamy sustained,
that law will now be vigorously en-
forced, and the foul blot on our ma
tional character no longer exist.

Closing of the Gold Room.
From the Chicago Tribune.l

The most significant event of resump-
ton day at New York was the closing
of the famous and infamous old "Gold
Room" where fortunes have been lost
and won during the last seventeen
years without contributing II penny to
the development Of trade or the nation S
prosperity The announcement of the
register, rs he closed his desk, that
"You've seen the end of it, was the
gladdest tidings that this country has
had since the news of Lees surrender.
The closing OF the gold room was more
properly the ending of the war than
was the event at Appomattox, for it
signifed the final recovery from the fl
nancial distress which the war brought
upon the nation. American money
and American credit are once more
upon level with the money and credit
of the most prosperous nation on earth.

A Thoroughbred Lion.

A correspondent of the Eugene
City Journal writing under date of
the 31st ult. says.
"While visiting the Coyote hills, l
called on DR.. Canaday; he and his
brother John has just returned from
a six hours hunt, and for their pains
they brought with them thorough
bred lion, such as was never seen in
this country before. 1t is huge
male beast-16 feet from the end of
its tail to the tip of its nose, and
stands 32l inches high, and its name
is inches long. 1t has tuit or
bunch of hair on the end of its tail
very much resembling that OF the
African tribe. Allow me to inform
you and your readers that it was no
child's play to capture this king of
the hills. The doctor and John had
hunted three hours for deer where
there should have been plenty, but
could find nothing but tracks run
ming in every direction; finally they
came to a Jungle and John stepped
upon large log to survey the country,
when all of sudden the hon made a
tremendous bound of about 80 feet
barely missing him, passed on to the
doctor, taking away the entire rear
part of his pants and about one half
of his coat.
assure you for five minutes the
battle was fierce and wild, and had it
not been for the timely arrival of
Charlie Moore and his three dogs,
would have been decidedly in the
lions favor. Immediately on his ar
rival the doctors favorite blood hound
caught the lion by the throat, while
the other dogs caught him by the legs,
sides, back, tai! or any other place
that was convenient. While tho
beasts were thus engaged, Charlie
Moore, as quick as thought, thrust
a bowie knife through its heart, thus
ending one of the ierciest battles
ever fought by man and lion in Ore
gon.

Grover Of Oregon.
from the st. Paul Pioneer Press.

FROM tne 81. Faui iloHccr ircss.
Senator Grover, of Oregon, has not
particularly distinguished himself dur
ing his political career; indeed, he is
never heard of except when he gets
into some disreputable scrape or other;
but his disreputable scrapes are gener-
ally frequent enough to save him from
prolonged obscurity. First he was
mixed up with Tilden and Patrick in
the shameful attempt to reverse the
choice of the people of Oregon for Pres
ident; then he was ground through a
senate investigating committee on a
charge of buying his seat; and now a
legislative committee pillories him for
plundering variety of State funds
while Governor Ii Grover likes fame,
he is getting plenty Of it.
