THE HOME PAPER.-People, generally, do
not reflect upon the great benefits and ad-
vantages bestowed upon them by their local
press. All that is worth knowing of occur
rences at home, together with an epitome of
what is transpiring abroad, is carefully col
lated in their local papers and daily brought
to their doors, where they can be read
pleasantly, and made the property Of the
entire family. The difference between the
children of man who takes a newspaper,
in point Of intelligence, and those Of one
who does not, is striking. 1t cultivates
among the young taste for reading, and
develops their intellects, which is pleasing
to witness. 1t is kind of kaleidoscope,
which discovers to them the world in minia-
ture. 1t is almost crime for the father of
family of children to deny them the ad.
vantages of newspaper.

On Monday they have another on

vorite, the Vancouver, together with
the large and commodious barge Co.

large dancing platform, and will have
band of music in attendance all day.
There will be no charge for anything
everything free after arriving in
the city. During the day there will
be military prize drill, base ball
match and other interesting features.
Should any one wish to be alone
away from the noise and dust of the
city, walk half mile and close thy
self in the continuous woods where
rolls the Oregon, and hears no sound
save it's own dashing." The boats
and barge will cover a space of 1OS
feet wide by nearly 200 feet long, and
can accommodate 1000 or more peo-
pie very comfortably. Every atten-
ton will be given to the comfort and
safety of the excursionists.
