• 'Every thing -in relation to the fine
country of Oregon is. of interest. An
exchange papertithe West gives some
late informatiou obtained trona letters
written by emigrants to that countryy---
We copy the following front them :-
- • The prospect . - is quite good for -- a
young mane to make . a fortune in' this
couniry, as all . kinds of produce are
high and likely to remain- eo from the
extensive demand. 'rlie Ruistan set
tlements in - Asia, the Saddwich islands,
a great- portion of California, and the
whaling vessels of the Northwest pro-
cure their supplies front this place. -
There is as yet but little money in
the .ountry, and the whole trade
carried on , by orders on an agent or fac
tory. For instance, when I sell my
crop of wheat,- the purchaser asks •me
when I wish to receive the pay. Van
couver i s as yet the principal point,
and an order on that point, enables the
seller to procure goods or cattle, or any
thing else for it.
The soil is excellent, wheat averag
ing about 20- bqshels per acre—peas
30', anti potatoes 200 bushels the face
of the country is beautiful, with level
prairies, cedars and firs behind, and
next the grassy hills with , the snowy
mountains in the back ground. Our
claim is at the , foot of the hill about fifty
miles above the Falls of the Wallamette.
Our house is on a small eminence, over
looking' the plain below her many
miles. On a hill neat us, we have , the
most beautiful view, the eye of man ev
er beheld—behind us and on' the right,
is the whole range-of the Cascade moan
tams,before 'us the .Calapoya moult ;
tains, andron the left i the Empquash
mountains, with the beautiful valley of
the Wallamette lying at your feet. The
grass remains green throughout the
year, and stocks are always fat—the
horses are hardy and beautiful.: Some
tribes - of Indians own from 3to 5 thou
sand head; • -
The population of this country con
sists of French, - sailers, mountain tra
(Ars, missionaries and emigrants from
the, States. The -French population
consists of old worn out servants of the
Hudson Bay Company;.they univer
sally have Indian wives, and Many
children, some of of whom are very
handsome t — this part of the population
are Catholics. The sailors are those
who 'deserted from,vessels while lying
on the coast, and have also intermarried
with the Indians, and but few of them
have embraced any religion—they are,
however, generally good citizens.—
The mountain traders are similar, ex
cept that they have nearly all embraced
'the Methodist or Catholic religion.
The citizens held a meeting some
time since, and unanimously adopted
the Statutes of lowa Territory for their
codeef , laws, until the goversiMent of
the -United' states should make laws
for them. There is little or no crime
in Oregon as ; '
yet, which is attributed
to the absence of spiritons liquors—and
so sensible are the citizens of this fact,
that they ar&Unanimous in favor of ex
cluding it. In fact, Dr. McLaughlin
has several cargoes in his warehouse
now, whichlit bought in preference to
allowing it to be sold in the country.. I
cannot speak too highly of this excel
lent man, for,his kindness to us all.—
He sent several boats loaded with-pro
visions to meet the emigrants last fall,
and'continued to distribute little-luxur
ies amongst us as we remained in reach
of him—he is always on the lookout
for an opportunity to bestoit his chari
ty, and bestows with no sparing hand.
His intention is to quit the Hudson
Bay Company and become' an Ameri
can citizen.
! $
Olir prairies are beautiful, soil good,
and the best stock range I ever saw. I
have located and recorded six sections
of land, which I can hold for one year
by making certain impsgivements there
on, which I intend doing. I can stand
in my door and see over all or them.—
Everything.is plenty here but sell high.
The- prospects for industrious 'young
men are truly flattering. Ido think
the six sections we have now . -in pos.
session are intrinsically worth $20.000.

the country, and the prospects for good

It would astonish you to see the state

There was fellow who; unfortunate
ly for himself and family, from being
a'pretty good husband, took to drinking,
and soon , became an idle, trifling vaga
bond: Coming home one night, after
having, as usual, been on a debauch,
he began, to call lustily—
" wiril wife ! I say give me some
supper!" ;
The poor wife who,' while she could
do so, provided food for the family by
her own toil, informed him, with tears
in her eyes, that there was nothing- to
get a supper out of.
" What," said he " havint you a
piece of cold meat?"
" No I"
" Give me a crust of bread, theu."
He was told there was none. ,

Result of Temperance.
At the recent assizes held in Canada
at Kingston, Mr. Justice Hageman. in
addressing the Juri. remarked that
was happy to say that. in his various
circuits throughout the Province,- he
found crime. sensibly on the decrease ;
that intemperance, the fruitful parent of
vice, was of much rarer occurrence
than. formerly ; that these happy re
sults he ascribed tolthe general increase
of wealth and prosperity in thecountry,
and to the more ample means , afrorded
of attending Divine worship ; that one
duty of magistrates was to see that no
more than a 'necessary number of tav
ern licensel,were granted."

IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
IT. is a prevailing opinion among the enlight
cdd Physicians of our country, that Cancer
is a mass of living - animalcule, which have ta
ken up their abode in tbeluman system. No
matter how small, or how low, in the scale bf
animated nature, the individual composing
Cancer may be, they were so tenacious of, ex
istence, that The knife or, the most powerful
caustic, are the'only means by which they can
be removed._
When permitted to remain, they never fail
to-multiply and spread to neighboring parts,
committing
- the most frightful depredations. un
til death comes to the relief of their victim.—
Worms in children, may. be considered some
what analogous.. If they 'areless' fatal, tliey
are infinitely more common ; and if suffered to
remain,, produce consequences • scarcely, less
shinning. .If the, testimony . : of medical writers
is to be relied Upon, they often prOduce mania,
apoplexy; epilepsy, palsy, convuliions and Many
other diseases equally dangerous, and often fa.,
tal. But here the parallel stops, Cancer neing
one of the most obdurate diseases, with which
physicians .htive to contend, while wormsare
easily dislodged by proper remedies. ,
• NERRICR'S VERNIFEGE,
has proved one of . the most valuable medicines
ever offered to the public for destroying worms
in children. Hundreds of cases might be ent”
merited, where it has produced the happiest re
sults. It is a syrup, and therefore easily-admi
nistered to children. , Price 25 cents per bottle:
THE POCAHONTAS-PILL.
Is the present age,. wnen relent Medi
cines" are so numerans, and their properties
unblushingly eulogised by their respective pro;
victors, it becomes necessary for the public (to
guard against imposition) to require some au
thentic evidence of their sanative properties.
The Pocahontas Pill is not offered as an an
tidote for all the ,diaoases tawhich flesh is heir.
We'inerily purpose to show, by the Successive
pablitation of certificates, voluntarily offered;
-that • theit present popularity is well founded ;
and, that as a . purgative • medicine, they base
proved pre-einutently beneficial.. These Pills
are compounded according to theryles of medi
