DR.. Wechsler's Subject To-mor-
row.

The lecture of DR.. Wechsler, the
Hebrew Rabbi, tomorrow afternoon
at the Synagogue on what has Pre-
served Isreal Among the Nations Of
the Earth" should be most interest
ing one, as the preservation of the
Hebrew people through twenty cen.
turtles is the most remarkable pheno.
menon of history. 1t has no parallel
in history.
During the five or six thousand years
Of the earth's credible history, hun-
dreds OF nations have been born, flour.
ished and died, and great races have
been lost In other races. There is not
a man living to-day, who can claim
that in his veins runs the blood of AS.
syrian, Persian, Greek. Roman, Egyp.
tan or Phoenecian. Time has merg-
ed and blended, mixed and remixed
nations and races till the present in
habitants of the civilized globe are
but a conglomerate, without ancestry
and without pedigree, and one single .
man may easily be imagined to repre-.
sent in his composition the remnants
OF ages and generations untold.
In all this general wreck and blend
ing in which identity has vanished,
the Jewish people stand, solitary and
alone, intact from the wear and tear
OF the ages, a colossal monument,
unchanged by time, untouched by de-
cay, untarnished by the rust Of cen.
turtles, as distinct and peculiar PEG.

burning sands OF the Arabian Pen.
the promised land. That
itself would be phenomenal but add
to it, that through eighteen centuries,
this people have been nation with
out country, race without habi-
tat,a religion without high priest and
Il rough the dark centuries aliens in
every land, branded, disclaimed and
prosecuted and yet have preserved
heir identity and the phenomenon is so
prodisious that natural causes fail to
explain it. 1t is a miracle if there
ever was one, and the most natural
and most logical explanation is to at.
ribute it to Divine Interposition. Ma.
ure's laws are uniform, those laws
lave uniformly annihilated every dis.
inctlon OF race, therefore, the preser.
'ation of race is against nature and
S miraculous.

NAMED to this day unmixed, natural
:auses would have .paled before an ex.
,lanation and yet that would have been
10 more singular than the preserva.
ion of the Hebrew race is.
The lecturer who undertakes to ex.
'lain this mircle of history by natural
:auses, undertakes Herculean task,
ut from whatever point of view DR..
Vechsler undertakes it tomorrow at.
ernoon, the lecture cannot fail to be
interesting, because the subject itself
one of the most prolific Of all sub.
ects concerning the human race. The

HEARD SWEET SOUNDS.

| heard sweet sounds, and loi thy voice was
brought
Unto my soti on white wings Of thought;
The voice that mem'ry's sweet, sad self hath
sought
uny flower brea1hed upward from It's dewy bed,
Aud to my hungry heart my soul hath said:
1T h his voice that dreamed In days that dawned
and fled"
I dreamed a dream: that I In Paradise
Awakened TO a glad and sweet surprise,
When that my soul found grace within thine eyes.
And back today the breath Of violets blow,
Warm with the sweet south wind OF long ago.
The sweetness Of the days I used TO know.

A wARNING.TO YOUNG MEN.

When some young men take
strong drink they don't hesitate TO
lie, to deceive their best friends and
be dishonest with them, financially
and otherwise. The ties of home
and kindred have no restraint upon
them. When they know this, their
only safeguard for maintaining their
honor is total abstinence from all
intoXicants. \ young mans way
ward conduct in this respect, tho
he may imagine he is not
known, and that his friends and
kindred can shield him frcm the
punishment his dishonesty merits,
it will be but Il short time before
the truth will dawn upon his
drunken understanding and he will
be loathed and despised by all
men and women of his
acquaintance, and find his only
companions among the law breakers
and vile of the earth.

TIE PowEn or WORDS.

The effect an advertisement ha,
upon the reader is very well Illus.
trated by the following as related
in the Mechanical News:
IA wealthy man who owns 9
country residence recently becam,
dissatisfied with it, and determined
to have another So he instructed
real estate agent, famous for his
descriptive powers, to advertise it in
the papers for private sale, but to
conceal the location, s telling the
purchaser to apply at his Office. In
a few days the gentleman happened
to see the advertisement, was pleased
with the account OF the place,
showed it to his wife, and the two
concluded that it was just what
they wanted and that they would
secure it at once. So he went to
the office of the agent and told him
that the place he had advertisj d
was such a one as he desired and he
would purchase it. The agent
burst into II laugh and told him
that was a description sof..shis own
house where he was then1,living.
He read the advertisement again,
cogitated over the grassy slopes, -
"beautiful vistas," " "slnooth lawns"
etc, and broke out, ais it possible?
Well, make out my bill for adver-
tising and expenses, for, by Georg,
wouldn't sell the place now for
three times what it cost me-"

Cincinnati and Baltimore are al
this moment owned and conducted
by men who began their career in
povertN, and whose prospects dur
ing their youth and early manhood
were quite as disheartening as those
of any of our lOve-lOrn correspOn-
dents. And with regard to that
delusive dream of emigrating to
some other state or country, we cal
assure our young friends that the
conditions Of prosperity in every
land are the same. The one source
Of prosperity, at all times and in all
places, is this: Industry directed by
Intelligence.
The real capital of great business
is not money, but intellect. This is
the cornerstone of our political
economy. The degree Of intelligence
with which a business is conducted
is the measure Of its permanent
prosperity. Millions Of capital can
not save it if there is a fool i'm the
counting-room who exercises con
troll. This fundamental business
truth is not often acknowledged in
80 many words, buOit is constantly
acted upon in the sure and rapid
promotion of young men who show
that they possess "a decided talent
for business. The best head tends
upward by a law as sure as gravita-
ton. The best head may be, to-day,
in the basement, officiating as
water-bearer and errand boy to the
packers. We look i'm next year, and
find him the foreman of that depart
ment; and so he marches upward |
through all the gradatiOns, until he
lands safe and sound in the count
ing-rOom as junior partner. Though |
are sometimes against |
the remark, it is nevertheless true |
that man generally gets on i'm life
as fast ~ he becomes fit to be en-
trusted with the more difficult
duties that belong to II superior
station. And nowhere is this so
generally true as in the business
world.

INTELLECT VS.. MONEY.
The Real and Imaginary Sorrows of
Poor Young Men,
by the governor:
GEO. W. MCBBIDE,
Secretary of state.

wv AN"hk NNNhs
Young men who are employed in
great establishments, mt moderate
salaries, often feel discouraged by
the seeming impossibility of their
ever getting into business. They
argue thus with themselves and
with us, says the York Ledger, some
times In dolorous letters "To car
ry on this business with effect re-
quires capital of one hundred
thousand dollars how is it possible
for IA young fellow, with IA salary of
five or six hundred dollars a year,
TO save tenth part of that sum p"
They answer that il is impossible,
and hence conclude that il is the un-
altemble decree offate that they must
remain hireling drudges all the days
Of their lives. .......
This reasoning appears to come
home with withering power 10 the
minds Of young gentlemen who
have had the luck to fall desperately
in love with pretty girls. Out OF
every hundred letters we receive, at
least ten are from young men Of
ardent feelings aud small incomes,
who are dead in love and have no
prospects of an advance, and who
would like 10 be- informed whether
IL is the part of wisdom 20 20 to

fortune in the coffee trade, or marry

themselves and their sorrows at the

wrist and II none Of these are wise,
then what do We recommend?
These ardent youths overlook "A

familiar, namely, that the very men

WHAT IT SHOWS.

The result of the election in this
state will probably convince those
political leaders, who inclined to
free trade measures, that the June
election was IA faithful indication of
how the people felt upon the subject,
and really did mean something. 1t
simply meant that the people of
Oregon believe in fostering home
institutions and markets, and the
increased majority at this election
speaks louder than words could upon
that part of the political discussion.

a PHYSICIAN giving II bit of his
own personal experience, and hav-
ing constitutional tendency to
sleeplessness, says that nothing
has ever given such decided relief as
eating heartily just before going to
bed. He objects to the use of the
the customary night-cap as "a
remedy against sleeplessness, both
because alcohol is injurious to an
empty stomach, and because it
does not induce a natural sleep.
But he thinks that adults should
be like babies, who sleep best with
full stomach, without night-mare
or other unpleasant results.

LHrBs AND HOMES.

Marion county IS situated in tn
heart of the magnificent Willamett
valley, the central gem in the clus
ter of rich counties that form tina
princely domain, and is the banne
commonwealth Of the great north
west in all the essentials that go tO
wards making it a profitable abidin;
place, and a home for the thrift
farmer, the cunning artisan and tn,
/ industrious mechanic.
/ Rich in it's agricultural resources
I'm its cultivated and uncultivateC
lands, in it's water powers, anC
minerals; rich in its colleges anC
schools of learning, and with /
climate unsurpassed for it's salubrity
it presents to the immigrant from
the overcTowded states, where colo
winters and hot summers, viii
terrible cyclones, prevail, who
comes to the coast with some
means, advantages that no Other
county in Oregon possesses.
Much has been written of this
western country that requires Il
stretch of the imagination to COM
prehend, aud numerous complaints
are heard from the class who have
been misled by them, so in this
brief sketch the writer desires to
avoid exageration as to its present
and prospective advantages, asking
those i'll the east into whose hands
this may fall-particularly those
who have their eyes directed towards
this coast-to peruse it carefully,
feeling that it is not written to lure
immigrants within its borders, but
only as a truthful description of Il
land which, if it does not ''flow
milk and honey" contains within
it's bosom wealth and resources equal
to any other country on the Pacific
side of the Rocky mountains.
BOUNDARIES.
e Marion county is bounded on the
north by the Willamette river am,
Butte creek which separates it frCIu
Clackamas county; on the east by
Clackamas county and the Cascad,
mountains, which separate it fIon.
Wasco county; on the south by III,
Santiam river and the north foTl; a.
the Santiam, separating it frcn,
Linn county, and on the west by IT,,
Willamette river.
PHYSICAL FORMATION.
The county contains, includmi.
valley, prairie and mountain lanu,
about 5000 acres.
There are two main divisions, tlr
and the valley. IT,
latter extends from the WillaInct!
river to the foot of the Casc;ll
a distance of about f.
teen miles.
The mountainous portion cOntaIu.
some fourteen townships of mosU
land; lying in a str
twelve miles north and south J.,
forty miles east and west, and cul,
prises all classes of land, from r:ci

GREAT ADVANTAGES.

A decided advantage Marion coun-
ty has over many others is the Il!
versified farming interest that cul
be carried on throught the entire
year; Notwithstanding this is q We

farmers are through with their seed

his summer work. And yet III,
low lands are much preferred h,
many; the yield per acre is generlli,
greater, and perhaps less labor is II
quired to place the soil in proper
condition for crops; and then Should
the season prove dry, the bottuu.
lands are sure to bring the best
crops. No better farming land can
be found in the United States than
that on the noted Howell prairie
French prairie, Santiam prairie and
salem prairie. The soil of these are
wonderfully productive. With good
cultivation, forty bushels of wheat
and sixty of Data per acre can be
readily secured.

FACILITIES FOR MARKET.

The Willamette river, with two
ines of railroad running the entire
length of the county from north 10
south, with the Oregon Pacific road
crossing the southeast corner of the
county, affords ample facilities to
reach market in any direction.
