The present volume concludes an ex-
haustiye history, carefully indexed, of
Oregon during its territorial existence
and since it became a member OF the sis
terhood of states in 1856 until 1888. The
minuteness of the details make these two
volumes valuable as reference, and will
always be aids to students OF American
history in their researches. The superior
advantages possessed by Mr.. Bancroft in
collecting historical information renders
the work Of future Investigations almost
nominal.

The story is of Gengh1s Khan who made

1t requires but q hasty
glance at our educa-
tional statistics to dis
cover that the greatly
increased sales of these
lands, in the past two
years, have added little
or nothing to the
amount per head of our
scholastic population.
II, then, this sale for
money viii yield but a
temporary increase of
our school facilities it
behooves us TO seek in
time some other method
for their management.
Raising the price does
not change the ques-
ton, but simply post
pones the final catas-
tTophe; and. in the
interest of free educa-
ton / see bat one
course left, and that IS
to lease all pasture, tim
Der and mineral lands
for a term of years and
sell, il at all, only to
actual settlers. 1t is
not necessary to burthen
this report with the
figures but it is easily
demonstrabIe that a
rent can be secured
which win nearly, if
not quite, equal the in
terest ON any sum for
which they can now be
sold; and while thus
securing an available
fund for present use,
we retain the title in an
eyer-increasing prinCi-
pal, which, at least for
years TO come will keep
pace with our growing
population. Why, then,
should not the state, in
the interest of schools
and of the home-seek-
ers of the future retain
the ownership of these
lands?

Considerateness.

There are men who, in the main,
are good and loving, but are sadly
wanting in that manner of express
ing love which we call considerate>
ness. Considerateness is the result Of
sympathy; it is a fine perception of,
and entering into, another PERSONS
circumstances, feelings, prejudices,
and temperament; it is delicacy,
Christian refinement, Christian polite
ness, and Christian propriety. If love
is shown in the giving of aims by
anyone possessing this sympathy, or
in such aid as implies certain supe-
riority on the part of the donor to the
receiver, yet that aid is ministered, or
the aid bestowed, with such a con-
sideration for the feelings of the re-
ceiver as makes the gift like the stone
of the diamond-almost forgotten in
the brilliancy of the light that shines
in it.
There are great many excellent
men and women who are sadly want
ing in this respect. Our religion
should result in complete and SYM
metrical development. 1t is not
enough TO be conscientious and faith
full. We must be gentle, polite,
thoughtful, sympathetic. The man
ner Of doing a thing is often as im>
portant as the doing.

Saloon Loungers.
New York Ledger.

New YORK Ledger.
We have too many lazy, worthless,
non-producers among us, and are too
tolerant of such nuisances. In other
countries man without means who
is capable of performing any labor,
mental or muscular, must work or
starve. Here we are more indulgent
to loaferism. The bar-rooms of the
hotels and saloons Of our large cities
are constantly haunted by shabby
genteel do-nothings, on the watch for
gOod-natured individuals with more
money than brains, of whom they
hope to obtain small loans.
Many of these professional Jeremy
Diddlers are persons of considerable
talent, extensive information and
good conversational powers. They
understand the arts of flattering and
amusing, and upon these arts they
trade. Some of them are the prodi-
gal sons of honorable and wealthy
citizens incOrrigibles who have worn
out parental generosity and forbear-
ance, and who, unable to obtain fur
ther supplies from "the governor"
have betaken themselves to that
contemplate OF all the shifts of dis
sipated laziness, saloon loafng; Just
as the worthless and ruined scions of
noble European families were accus-
toned to take to "the road" for a
livelihood, in the Olden time.
Upon the whole, however, we
think the "noble highwaymen" of
two hundred years ago were less des-
picable than the tipping dolIar-bor-
rowers of the present day. A good
family name is not bad capital to
swindle on. Men who would hesitate
to give ten cents to ragged, name
less pauper, not unfrequently open
their purses to assist the black sheep
of a first family, who is too lofty to
beg, but not too proud to borrow
under the false pretence Of returning
the loan he solicits in the course of a
day or two. The habitual saloon
loafer, when he has become too notO>
riOus to ply his game with success al
one place, moves off to another, and
begins to experiment upon a new sci
Of victims.
If the society in which plausible
drones pick up a living without labor
had sufficient moral courage to meet
their solicitations with a determined
No, it would be II blessing to all con-
cerned. Convince these pensioners
upon false generosity that they
must depend upon the legitimate eX'
ercise of their own talents for support
or famish, and large proportion o.
them would adopt the disagreeablt
alternative which the able~bodied
beggar said he must resort to if the
charitable denied him aims. They
would go to work. Whoever leads tC
the lazy, dissipatcd and dishonest
what he could otherwise afford to be
stow in real charity, RODS the merito
riOuS poor.

Special Telegram to the Register
CHARLESTON, W. VA, October % -
News has been received here to-day con-
irming the report published exclusively in
the REGISTER, that Milt. Haley and Green
Mccoy, the men who were charged with
wsylGyipg and seriously shooting Allen
Brumheld and his wife, were lynched in
Lincoln county recently. The region
where ths lynchiDg occurred is on Hsrt's
creek, in Lincoln county, and over forty
miles fiom the nearest rsilroad. Hart
distrie. is close to the Logan county
line, ard the lynching took place in
thst section. Complete details can not be
secured. Haley and Mccoy we're arrested
few days ago in Martin county, Ky.
They we're taken to the jail in Ben, Mar
tin county, to prevent the Brumfelds from
doing harm to them.
STORY OF THE LYNCHING.
Exactly how the Brumfeds got their
hands cn them is not kEowp, but it is re-
ported that officers started TO take them
scross tie West Virginia liae, knowing
that they had no legal right to hold the
men in Kentucky. A posse was formed
and laid in wait for the men. This wss
on Wednesday night. On Thursday morn
ing shey were found dead ia the yard OF
George Fry, prominent farmer of Hart's
creek Their throats were cut and their
bodies riddled with bullets. Ths Brum.
fields aud thsir relatives constitute the
greater part Of the population on Hart
creek, aud it is known that number of
them were 10 the lynchiag party. TIE
officers who had the men in charge made
no resistance to the attack OF the lynch
ers, aud they were not irjured.
MRS. BRUMFIRLD RECOVERING.
Mrs. Brum6eld who was believed to
have been fatally wounded by McOOy aud
Haley, is now out Of danger and will
probably recover. Her husband is almost
entirely veil. Paris Brunield, who was
shot about three weeks sgp is Blso able to
be out. Paris was shot in sn alteration
with man named Mccoy, who is believed
to have been one of the parties lynched
number of stories have been advanced
as TO the origin of the feud
resuliiug iD the horrible crime
Of lsst week. IL seems that it has no con-
nectiOn with the Hstfisld-McCOy war ny
some have supposed. Floyd Dingess, the
son Of Henderson Dingats, and promi-
nent man in that part Of Lincoln county,
married a woman named Hall who was
related 10 the McCoys and Haleys.
THE FIRST VICTIM.
Diugess abused his wife and she COM
planned to her family Que Of her rela-
lives met DinResa, quarrel ensued and
Dingsss was killed. Allen Brumfeld
married DiDgess' sister and took up
the quarrel in his behalf. The
Brumfslds were thus drawn into
the feud. The opposing faction deter
mined TO PAT Al. ont Of the road; and four
we, KS ago he and bis wife were shot while
riding in the read, returning from Hender
son Diugess' home.
The lynchirg of Haley ard Mccoy does
not end the wGr, and IL is probable that
more blo3d will be shed at az early day.
