It should be borne in mind I that these persons who are called "mediums," in whose presence the nippings occur, utterly deny and disclaim any.agency in producing the noises, or any knowledge of whence they proceed. They also deny tiny knowledge of the questions put (fre quently in writing aside friam,tliem,) or respousi bility for the answers obtained. If, therefore, in the Divine economy, such communications with the spirit world/ are ordered for this period of the world.. as slime believe, it is a part of the woo der why the presence of these particular persons as mediums is required at all.

For the last two months the youngest of the Ftix family—a girl 14 Seats oi agt—has resided in my family.— During this tune I have investigated daily, some `:roes alone and sometime. with my family, and with a great many others who have sought the op portunity to do so.

Soon after this a terrible creaking noise commenced, like the groans and creaking of a ship, which continued ten or twelve minutes. While this was being made, Mrs. Fish spoke and said it is an unesual sound, and - she did not know what it meant.

The City was commenced last March. The bay on which it. is located is spa ciews and safe, as though nature inthnded it for the depot of the extensive lumber and agricultural re gion of the Columbia valley. A hotel, which, well furnished„, , will coat twenty thousand dollars, is nearly completed. A large sago-mill is already commenced, and the site begins to attract the at- • tention of the capitalist. Almost every vessel is bringing to it the sturdy adventhrer. It certainly has many advantages, but you will see it has also a good iounber of rivals. Across the river, and a little hig.hei, up, is situated Clatsap Plains, a low muddy district, but remarkably productive in veg etables. The claims here (mostly, containing full sections) are nearly all occupied. They are now selling their potatoes at four dollars per bushel and other vegetables in proportion ; consequently the farmer is making hi : heap with great rapidity.— And so if must continue here for years to come.— There is no region that presents a higher prospect to the agriculturist. 'than that about the mouth of the Columbia. Astoria, also on ;the oppolite side of the river from Pacific City, is situated about miles higher up. . At present it is the only port of Ore gon, except one. The custom-house and distribu ting Pest-office are here. Gen. Adair, the Port Collector, has mused the office abont one mile higher up, and commenced a new Astoria. Nature has not been i L 4 profuse of her advantages to this place its to Pacific City. No large- and beautiful bay is spread out before her, and the prospect around is nut so magnificent. Still Astoria hopes to be first in importance on account of her age.— In point .if population, the two places 'are nearly equal_ , ' - The claims near the river are fast beings taken up,'"asd are estimated in value from two hundred to five thousand dollerii, those near 'Pacific City be ing considered most valuable. Proceeding up the river about sixty miles, you come to the mouth of the Cowlitz river. In its valley the French have settled, But the Anglo Saxons ere crowding into their possessions and establishing their claims:— The banks of the rivers on both sides are high and precipitous, ceveted,with k dense forest, theltifty tops.of which sbooot up arrow-like, three hundred feet or inure towards the heavens!
