NORTH aMEaIcas REVIEW.

The North American Repiew for
September opens with n profoundly
philosophical article on tsThe Church,
the State, and the School % by Prof.
William T. Harris. NJ. j. Savage
treats OF "Natural Ethics", showing
that the principles OF morality are
rooted in mans nature, and are the
product OF evolution; consequently,
that they are not affected by the VI
cissitudes OF dogmaor religious creeds.
The Hon. John A. Kasson gives q
history OF the "Monroe Declaration"
and proves that the credit OF
formulating that cardinal doctrine OF
American statesmaRship is due to
John Quincy Adams. Tho Rev.
Edward Everett Hale writes Of the
Taxation OF Church Property. lie
would have all churcaes taxed in
form, but would exempt IA practice
those which by their charitable work
help to tighten the public hurdens.
The other articles in this number of
the Rcriec are "Jewish Ostracism In
America, by Nina Morals: - The
Decay OF New England Thnught",
by. the Rev. Julius H.. Ward;
"Ghost SEEING, by Prof. +. II.
Hedge; and "FaciiIious Ills tory,

Il is whispered abont that tho high
position once occupied by Judge Cliff
ford is craved bya Judge in Oregon.
This srumor comes as matter OF cool
astonishment more than anything else.
Without reference 10 any particular
case, we know that the greatest care
should be exercised in choosing man
worthy 70 Gil this place. Our people
could not survive the mistake in plac
ing an unworthy man on the bench of
the supreme court Of the United States.
II wants man ripe in scholastic at
tainments; a unAn Of erudition and one
who is incorruptible. lie should be
renowned for good citizenship; fine so
ciaI qualities and sincere friendships.
lie should be pure in private life for
on this principle rests all public yir-
tue. The confidence OF the people in
she support Of the judge, without
the bench is a mockery. This conf
dence VI tho people is never wanting
where the Court is pure. Tho highest
Court ia the nation should be. above
reproaeb. To have Court sound in
good morals depends on tho selections
made TO create IL. This whispering
carries with il the name OF Judge
Deady 10 OH the vacancy. We ARE
not disposed 20 question the ambition
that suggested tais advancement in the
incumbent Of orr Count, but we do
question the policy of making this ap-
pointment until the charges recently
made against His Honor are cleared
mp. We cannot see wherein Judge
Deadly has any claim on this Office.
He could reflect no creslit on the posi-
tion were he 10 GIL il. On the contary
his connection with il at present would
entail scandel upon the ofIics that
We are not prepared 10 defend. This
applicant carnot afford 70 make appli-
cation for this position with the pres
ent '.brteze in the wind concerning
him. For this reason we do not fear
this calamity. After ell we cannot
resist the pleasure of speaking well of
our state if we have to sacrifice our
respect for its officers or Judges when
there is cause for it. We regarl the
oiiico one Of honor; one that Is above
the characteS Of almost every man, nj
no Judge.shouId hold the position un-
less be is trusted implicitly and has
the respect OF tho people Of his own

days ago that the death Of the Ptesi-

that was "What should be done with

it begins to look as if the people ia

IT is very propable that our neigh
bonr of the Register is on the wrong
tack when he accuses Willard Of med
ling with a little mail route of the size
of the one between Albany and Lsba-
non. We have never had much expo
rience in manipulating large railroad
combination like that presided over by
Willard. bnt it looks to rs ike If he at
tends to that business IS is reported,
his time is most too valuable to spend
in changing mail route which only
amounts to some 800 or $500 per
annnm.

Under The above caption the Sln
Francisco ,Jour7,at Of. Commerce OF
August 25lh has splendid article
on subject which Il now Of great
Importance TO our readers. II gives
very clear the situation of affairs In
California, and as Oregon's condition
Is almost similar we viii republlsli
the entire article. Hero It Is
A gentleman tolerably well posted
In cereal statistics, yentured 10 Us
tho other day the prediction that be-
fore tho year closed the market for
shipping wheat would have reached
-, and that 1882 would he year
OF the highest prices in the wheat
market ever seen. The advance In
Liyerpsol, during tho past two
weeks, gives a good deal OF proba-
biliiy to this forecast OF the market.
With wheat now at S1.G5-an adj
vance from si.33 no long time since
Its advance 10 s. would not be a
very wonderful matter. At the pres
ent rate of advance, Il would reach
- very soon. But for the flrmness
OF tho freight market, it would have
gone at least I2jc higher, and would
have now been S2.s7l instead OF the
present figures. All this Il a good
prospect for wheat buyers, and for
farmers, who have not as yet, been
forced TO SELL. How many OF these
there are, we know not, but out OF
2G, 200, 600 centaIs surplus Of old and
new crop I'm the state July 1st, not
more than two aud quarter millions
have, as yet, come forward. This
leaves n large margin IN the hands
OF the farmers. The advance since
the beginning OF August. has added
to the value OF wheat in the state
not less than ten millions OF dollars.
A further advance Will add still more
1t is 10 be borne in mind, that this
additional price has 10 be paid us by
EngIand, France, Belgium, and tho
countries where we ship our ilour
When It Is born in mind that this
increase is more than equal To the
entire value OF our wool, and greater
than those of wine, or indeed, its
whole value, some idea may be
formed of its magnitude and imror-
lance.
But, it is reasonably certain that
the average price of our wheat crop
will be $1.80 per cental--an advance
of 35 cents per GENITAL over the pre-
yailing price on August Ist. This is
equal to probably fourteen million
dollars moro into the pockets OF the
farmer and the people of the state
an amout larger than the value of
our whole wheat crop not many years
since. It Is the Same as dropping
four twenty dollar gold pieces into
the pockets of each of ITO, 900 heads
of families in the entire state--mure
money than the poor people of some
countries ever saw in the course Of
their whole lives. With crop of27,-
0O0, 900 centals, and a surplus of 10, :
100000, we had on July 1st 10000, :
900 centals to sell, SO that tho Whole
value OF this, during tho present har-
vest year, cannot be less than seven-
ty-tWo millions Of dollars.
The reason for anticipating high
prices all through 1882, are that dry
season will probably prevail next year
mot only in California, but in all
countries. The. reason for this assump-
tion, Is that dry season, more or
less marked more marked in Cali
fornia than elsewhere seems to come
once IN every three or four years.
