The Moon and the weather.

Almost everybody believes that the
changes of the moon influence the
weather. But scientific men laugh at
the delusion.
Some one has written to the Uni-
uersity Monthly to inquire if any
changes in the weather are attribute
bic to the influence of the moon. The
editor referred the communication 10
Com. Maury. His answer will disap-
point a great many weather. wise
folks. The moon changes, says Mau-
ry, every 10 days, consequently ey-
cry change in the weather must take
place within the period of SO days Ell
ther before or after moon-change,
and her worshipers give her all the
credit for it. The moon governs the
tides, but not the atmosphere. The
most faithful observers have failed TO
detect any tide in the latttr, or any
variableness under the moons inhu-
ence. So this vexed matter may be
considered as set at rest, and we can
defy the weather prophets.

Chalking the Hat.

This phrase was due to Admiral
Reeside, in the days when Congress
men went numbering over the distant
States in stage-coaches. At the an
nual adjournment of Congress, Admi-
raj Reside would pass his friends Of
the two houses over his stage-lines af-
ter the following fashion: "Mr. O., |
suppose you are going back to Lex
ington? | will pass you through on
my coaches "All right; but how
will your agents along the road know
this fact?' Just give me your hat.'
Upon the tile being passed over, this
Napoleon of the stage, taking piece
of chalk from his pocket, would dash
off in brilliant white upon the black
ground a peculiar hieroglyphic, inn
possible TO counterfeit, and hand it
back to the owner with the remark,
Just show that to my agents along
the route"

AMONG the once powerful Indian
tribes of Oregon that are fast becon-
extinct are the Umpquas, the pre-his-
toric inhabitants of the valley of that
name. These Indians are dying out
very fast: at the roll call of 1856 there
were 2l3; in the present year there
are only or I left. If the 1000 hos
tile Sioux to be fed at Government
expense this winter at Ft. Keough
will follow the illustrious example of
the Umpquas, at an increased ratio
they will confer favor ON the people
who are taxed to feed and clothe them,
in order that they may be in good
condition to take the warpath in the
spring.

GUSLDETALL.

Mr.. Simon Cole, while up river on
the 10th inst, was stricken with par.
alytic shock and brought home Satur
day morning on the train in Il chair
He is now somewhat better, but hi,
body will not do his bidding as form
erly.
We are informed that our new Lum
Der Co., has bought of Mr.. Thos. Beat
tie 100000 feet of logs, with an add
tional half million if found on the lot
Other parties are beginning to fill W
the old mill yard and before long we
shall hear the buzz of the saw only, as
it is trihe cool for skeeters.
We hear that there are to be Christ
mas trees at both churches on the eve
of the cath. This seems unavoidable
as Saturday evening would leave nc
chance for cleaning up for Sunday
but it does seem little hard on Santa
Claus and the old fellow will have t.
try the feat of being in two places a
once. I. O. u.
