THE ADVERTISER
BROWNVILLE, NEB.,
THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 4,1871.
A. Letter from Oregoa.
Dear Editor : Thinking my
friends would like to hear something
about Oregon, us well as hear from
me, I writo the following:
It seems suilieieiitly surprising that
there is such general misiindeistund
ing in the Eastern Stales regarding
the climate of the Pacific coast. Many
people of the east still appear to be
incredlous when they are told that
in a latitude so high lis Oregon, there
are winters during winch iee Is never
formed, and that it is an exceedingly
rare thing for the niurcury in the
common thermometer to sink so low
as twenty digiees bel.iw freezing, if
they are assured that there are un
doubted facts, they often express sur
prise, u.ud are quile unable to account
for them. One would suppose that
by this time every body ought to be
aware of the mildness of the climate
on the Pacitic coast, and to know the
reason of it, yet there are many who
never heard that southerly witnla
prevail here in the winter months,
bringing our abundant rains and pre--venting
the rigors of winter, and who
never heard that there are ocean cur
rents which contribute to produce
the higher tempe.ature of the Pacilic
coast, the same as the gulf stream
moderates the climate of England
and Ireland. There exists in the
Pacific a stream acting under nearly
similar codititmns rwith that of the
Atlantic side. To explain more sat
isfactorily the moderate temperature
of the lorth Pacific by the immense
warm ocean current flowing from the
coasts of India and China toward the
American coast. "This stream" es
capes from the straits of Malacca, and
being joined by others from the Java
and China Seas passes out into the
Pacific, like another gulf stream be
tween the Philippines and the shores
of Asia whence it attempts the gre-t
circle route for the Aleutian Islands,
tempering clim-tcs and flowing to
Vard thelijfirjLhiWestcaast of America
,iiHieim,isi13Jift,'en be traced for
toward the north, agamatrthe"UfJHdfcf
the continent, to liussian America
where it is turned, to the southward
along the coast of Oregon, California
and Mexico. When people in the
eastern States become lully acquaint
ed with the facts regarding the mild
ness of our climate, multitudes will
be attracted hither for the purpose of
escaping from the rigorous winters of
the Atlantic seaboard and upper
Missi.-sippi valley compared with
them, we have no winters except in
name. Proper y speaking, there are
but two seasons, the dry and the
rainy. Tho grades of temperature
and the accompaniments which in
other countries of the same high lati
tude are usually associated with the
four seasons, Spring, Summer, Au
tumn and Winter, are here in a gieat
measure obliterated, or at least so
dimly marked that the seasons im
perceptibly run into -each other and
leave their distinctive line of division.
It is not unusual for the three win
ter months to be mild, without snow
or ice, the grass growing meanwhile.
The rainy season proper -begins late
in October or early in November, and
may be said to continue till the en
suing April, it irequeniiy Happens
after the first rains that weeks of
weather similar to Indian summer
occur, and it is seldom that one or the
other ofthe months, January, Feb
ruary or March does not prove con
tinuously mild and clear. The sum
mers of this State are unsurpassed in
the world, while many days are ex
ceedingly warm, the nights are al
ways cool and refreshing as if special
ly intended'for wholesome sleeping.
In reference to climate and agricul
tural capacities, Oregon may be divi
ded into three distinct parts, the east
ern, western and middle "districts."
Eastern Oregon extending from the
Cascade mountains to Snake river is
an elevated, rough broken country of
i.:ll ...wl i .fttit.iin t'lhlllnildR.
111113 .. iiiuuiiuti'i"! '
deep gorges an
d almost impenetrable
canons, with nutner6us fertile and
arable valleys. The greater portion
is inciipable bf tillage, but furnishes
an extensive scope for grazing.
Middle Oregon lying between the
Cascade aud Coast range Mountains,
the first set tied,-containing the great
preponderance ofits present popula
tion istwo hundred and seventy-five
miles in length, with an average
width of eighty miles, nearly ail of
which is valuable lor agriculture,
grazing or for timber, excepting the
crests of some of the highest moun
tains. The' valh-ys of the Willamet,
LTmpaqroe, and Rogue Rivers -are em
braced in this section. , The soil of
these valleys is rich and deep, resting
upon a foundation of clay retentive
of the eleineutpf fertility, larger por
tions of thcvalleys are. open . prairie,
just rolling enough for tlie purposes
of agriculture. . All the cereals. In
dian cor ii "excepted, succeed admira
bly, the wheat and oat crops being
euual to those of California. In
fruits the apple; rpe,ir, .ptfmfjcherry;
yield- abundantly .the-grapeisuceeed&
with little trouble
The western section has an average I first Shing considered by the educa-....-.

width between the ocean ana
the
coast' range mountains of fifty .roilea..
This section Tor lieaitn, cnraaie, iruit,
EoiU&te.t.and Ugoberja the best por
tion of Oregon, ia this section, it is a
run? thing for the murcury in the
BROWNVILLE, NEBRASKA,. THURSDAY, MY
common thermometer to sink so low
as ten degrees below freezing. The
valleys or the Yaqufi.a, Coos. Florae?
and Coqulile rivers a-e embraced in
this section. The soil of those valleys
is all made land, caused by the over
flow of the rivers during the rainy
season, ever overflow leaving a rich
deposit, renewing the land "yearly.
All kindsof fruits grow large, ami
well flavored trees produce fruit a
three and" four years old, all khids o:
vegetables grow of large quality,
wheat produces from forty to sixty
bushels per acre, oats seventy-live,
potatoes from four to six hundred
bushel, per aore. This section is well
adapted lor stock raising, and will
become a very important and remu
nerative branch of its agricultural
enterprise, but little dry fodder is pre
pared, as the pasturage continues
through the winter. The western
slope of the coast rauge is covered
with immense quantities of sugar
pine, nut pine, red fir, yellow fir,
balsam fir, Oregon cedar, and the
fragrant white cedar, fir trees two
hundred and fifty and three hunderd
feet high, and eight and ten feet in
diameter, are not at all uncommon,
masts for ships may readily be ob
tained, straight and without knou,
one hundred and Hfly feet long, some
of the mills on Coon Bay have the
capacity to turn out daily forty thous
and feet ol lumber, which is exported
to San Francisco, the Sandwitch Is
lands, Japan, the Mexican and South
American ports on the Pacific. I am
now living in this section, my ad
dress is Randolph, Coos County Ore
gon. No more for a while.
Yours Truly,
El-EANAII H. NOSLER.

Lindsey, Kansas,
April -lth, 1871. J
My Dear Sister Eoans.l have
heard, with regret, of the awful fate
of your husband. I saw au account
of the awful tragedy in the Junction
City Union. You ha-e my sympa
thies and prayers for grace and
strength to bear your great trial. I
came to this point to-day with Judge
White, of Junction City, who is coun
sel for "Cuppy," who is accused of
committing the deed. He. wanted
me-.to write to vou and ask it there
between
case.orlhoi'jhejevideiice se
bp very strong agaiilVt4rimiNi.itheyk.
can discover no motive that led to
such a deed. They had been togeth
er, at Junction City, the day before,
and Mr. Evans had bought some
things for Cuppy and paid for them,
and they had got a jug of whh-kej lor
another man, which was left at Cup
py's house. They were not drunk,
for the whiskey was undisturbed, and
sixteen dollars was in his pocket. No
one knows of any trouble between
them. Cuppy was seen leaving the
house, and washing blood oiF his
hands and clothes; and there are
stains of blood on his clothes. There
was a teriible gash in Mr. If vans'
face, and his head smashed in v;ith
the pole of the axe ; his brains spat
tered on the wall near the floor, show
ing that he was lying down when he
was killed. It seems to be au unfor
tunate part of the world. Some 1
or 13 have lost their lives by accident
or tragedy in that vicinity.
Write, or get some one to write, to
me, and tell me what you know about
the man who is accused ; it might be
of great benefit to secure the ends of
justice If he is innocent he ought
not to suflUr ; if he is guilty ho ought
to be punished.
Yours, in Christ,
T. S. Lowe.

Methods of Teaching.
How to train children ; how to edu
cate the infant man. What can be
of more importance than this? The
nearer he is trained in the "way he
should go" while young, the less
will have to be done in after years,
to lead him from ways he should not
go. Perhaps it may do well to ask
in the beginning, why is this beiug to
be educated ? What are the possibili
ties and capabilities in the nature of
.n mi.. , . . .. .il.

answered by him in his present state
of c development. Who can tell
to what height of knowledge he may
yet climb; to what state of moral
purity he may yet arrive, as the
realm of matter becomes understood

it has a body, a temple for the spirit
to dwell in. This body hr the med
ium of conveying both pleasure and
pain ; it has senses, passions and ap
petites which are ta be roirtrolled by
the higher faculties. The proper

Atkinson, who stands among the
best educators ofthe day, gives an ac
count of the. half-time schools which
rew out. of a necessity in England.
The poor people could not let their
children i go all thf day to school, so
a plan was forined to have them go a
fi-w hour) each day.; this, insured at
tendance; and it was found that
these children actually made more
progress in iutellecturaj education,
thun'those who went all day. Ob
serving and profiting by this, the
school systems in both England and
Germany are undergoing modifica
tion in consequence.
To know how to secure physical
health, it is necessary to know the
laws which govern the body. Froe
bel, the gieat German educator, has
well said "man is the child of na
ture, the child of man ; and the child
of God." This brings him into re
lationship and sympathy with all
things in the universe both spirit
ual and natural. As a child of nature
he is subject to the laws which gov
ern all organisms, and the laws, too,
which govern inorganic matter.
"Dust he is, and to du-.t he must re
turn." But the spiritual man "goes
on to the Father." As a child of man
he becomes individualized ; has self
consciousness ; receives an identity of
his own, never to be lost amid all the
building up, and tearing down of or
ganism, amid all the forming and
transforming changes of material pro
cesses. As a child of God he rises up out of
the material into the spiritual ; he
wanders hungering for knowledge
over the vast fields of thoughts, and
plucks and eats from the tree of
knowledge, and becomes as God,
knowing good and evil. He aspires,
too, after the tree of life, he longs for
immortality, and drinks from the.
waters of eternal life which flows eon
tinualy from God to the spiritual
man. He is not satisfied uutil he
hears, sees and knows of spiritual
things; until he looks beyond th,e
nii..rtii-.nu.i. into .tii hpuv-uivi.

This three-fold nature of man is to
be educated. Harmonious culture is
what he needs tlie ievelopiqent qf
the whole miturp No one set of
fitoultiOH should be trained ,aud the
rest left uneducated. There should
be no schools for educating the intel
lect without training the moral and
religious education, then the intellect
would be held under proper restraint
by the moral faculties, and the reli
gious nature would not run with all
manner of wild fancies, but men
would be intetluct.ially, physically,
religions- Tlie.-,e many faculties, these
diversified talent-all lie in germ in
the infant man, audit is the design
of education to develop them, and
hriiiR them-out. The educator should
ever be looking out for the best method-of
developing the faculties ofthe
mind. The academies, the universi
ties, tlie colleges in Amprica have
risen to a high state of perfection,
but the common school system is very
defective. Indeed, there i no real sys
tem. That is what we need. Admit
ting all that is graild" in college learu
in,r, yet the common school should
heYnnkLMl after first, because it is of
the first importance. It is a magni
ficient sight, to be sure, to see men and
women climbing up the steps of
science, and standing ou. the classic
hills away on beyond thecircumscnb-
Pd visions of the educated man. Then
mi vision- . ..
we turn and look down in the vahev
of ignorance, anu as, is uie.e auj
material djflerence between these un
educated men and women and the
learned ? Aud we find the opportu
nity is all that makes them differ.
Then let the way be cleared for ail ;
let all the children have a chance of
development, and see if some of those
ignorant ones cannot stand on the
classic hill, too. "There is no royal
road to learning." .The rich and the
poor travel the same way. and nature
opens her treasures to all alike, and
deals out bountifully to all who seek.
The common -school system promis

ever blighted every thing it touched.
Like the serpent in Eden, it soon ap

just the meanest kind. It commenc

the poor man's children. So he drew
them ont into select schools, to pre
Dare them for the higher schools.
This left the common scliool so re

to qualify teaciiers. So it has went for
long years,- and the commou schools
have been "common'-' enough some
time?; and the qualifications of the
teacher "common" enough, too ;.but
for a few years past much interest
has been in that direction. Some of

Tom Waters was just entering upon
his profesion the law in the little
village of Daleville, where he became
deeply e. amored of pretty little Bes
sie Norris, the merchant's daughter.
In truth, Bessie was pretty enough
to turn any head. Although she had
not quite completed he eighteenth
summer, yet the precocity of the
Southern clime had fully developed
her into a stale of womanhood. Not
one of those wasp-like creatures that
the hand may span, hut into a stout,
square built "woman ; low of stature,
anil possessing the bust, ami the
graceful, tapering limbs of a Venus
de Medici. Her face was between the
oval and the round ; her forehead was
rather low, and as free from marks as
a piece of Paphian marble; her nose
was the mitigated aipiiliue ; and her
lips, though full arid pouting, wore a
saucy curl about them that gave them
a far more tempting expression. Her
wereof ,, t. ,M,t.st hh,e imagin-
able, and although generally smiling
and saucy, yet When occasion ue-
uiaude'l, they could he as soit anu
tender aud loving as any little eyes
under the dome of high hearen. Her
hair, oo, silken, flaxen, and luxuri
ant, falling in wavy ringlets around
her heck and gradually sloping shoul
ders has a half-saucy expression
about it, when tossed by a movment
of tlie pretty head.
Forsooth, was she as bewitching a
creature as ever tripped through the
Streets of Daleville, and no wonder
that Tom loved her.
Nor did bent all refrain from tell
ing to her of his attachment, andshe.
like a brave, good girl, acknowledged
that she loved him in return. And
when he -asked her to be his wife, slur
bravefv told him
"Yes."
And now the only thing that re
mained to complete their happiness
was to gain the consent of Bessie's
father, and be huniulv married.
But, somehow, "true love never did
run smooth." When Archibald Nor
ris was interviewed by the young
man aud his sanction of their inten
tion snu-ht. he drew himself up to
his full height, and casting a look of
ineffable scorn upon p or Tom, said
in contemptuous tones:
"You marry my daughter! You
sir! And, pray, what have you got
to take a wife to?"
Tom looked somewhniabashen, ann
told the merchant that it was true he
was poor, yet his profession, he
thought yielded him income enough
to support a wile, and also that the
said proiession was rapnuy growing.
"Leave my house, young man, and
never dare to enter it again' or it may
be worse for you! And remember,
too, never presume -to address my
daughter again!"
And with this the merchant show
ed Tom the door..
He went forth somewhat crest-fallen;
but. not entirely despairing; He
was determined not to give. Bessie upJ
so easily.
The following day, at.an hour when.
the merchant was likely to be absent,
Tom, braviny everything, betook

quit the premises.
Of course Tom went ; nnil seeking
hjs office he threw hiuiMlf hack in u
chair, and sat brooding, lor an hour
or more, over the little incident thai
had dist'Jibed him.
Little incident ! Not little to Tom ;
on the contrary it was one of giave
importance, foreshadowing to him a
separation from her whom he-1 loved
better than life. And his thoughts
were not the least bit plea-dug.
AJ. length he sprang to his feet, ut
tering a wicked chuckle.
"IMLdo it!" he muttered half aloud.
"Yes, I'll do it. 'Twill be killing two
birds with one atone- It'll be reveng
ing myself on old Norris, and getting
Bessie" too. He, he, he!"
He bad determined upon some
pleasing measures, no doubt; for hi
faee grew radiant, and the accustom
ed smile took the place ofthe Iooh;
cloud iinon his brow; and. snatching
up his' hat he hastily "sought the
street.
An hour later, as old Archibald
Xorris stood alone in his counting
room thinking also of the event which
had ?n disturbed his equanimity,

shoulder and told him he was wanted.

Upon what charges?" gasped Ar
chibald, almost overcome with sur
prise. "For n breach of the peace, for
threatening the life of and actually
making an assault upon Thomas Wa
ters, E-q. Come."
And the astounded merchant, with
out uttering a word, was led away bv
the sheriff, and soon had the leisure
to medita'e upon and repent of his
rash act betweeh the. two stone walir

As soon as Tom was convinced that
Archibald Norris was safely locked
up: and by the way, he had been
closely watching from a neJghborhi.
corner, he set oft" at fill! speed for tlie
merchant's house. .Bessie, who was
already aware of her father's arrest
and impti-onment, met him coldly at
the door.
"Bessie, darling," he said warmly,
taking her hand, "everything has
been arranged for our nuptials, and
the coast is now clear; will you come
with me to the clergyman's?"
She drew her hand away from him,
and coldly replied:
"No. Mr. Waleis, I will not. Think
vou that I would stoop to give my
hand to the man who dared drag my
father to prison as a common crimin
al ? No, no, sir? I'd scorn to do such
a thing, however well I loved him."
"Hut liateu to me, Bessie cried the
youth, seizing her baud and holding
it fast. "Listen to me. little girl, to
what I should have told you ere this.
It was through no ill-will that I did
this thing. Your father, you well
know, would never have consen.ed
to our union; he would have guurded
you so vigilantly that flight on your
part would have been impossible, and
our only chance lay in having him
nut of the way for a little while, and,
hence, my motive for taking tho step
I have. Aud as soon as we are safely
married he shall bo released. Now
yon know, darling, what I did it for."
"But, Tom," she said at length, in
tones that showed that she had great
ly relented, while a half-smile lit up
her countenance; "but, Tom, would
it not be wrong in me to take thn ad
vanageof my father's situation?"
"Wrong, darling one! No, no; Is
not all fair-in love?"
"Yes." she said laughingly ; and
forthwith she set about preparing for
her novel w.ddniir.
In another i aif-hour the twain
1 were at the house of the clergyman.
A few of their particular friends,
whom Tom hail acquainted with his
secret, dropped in lo i-ee them mar
ried. And then the old clergyman
called them up, and after pronounc
ing them man and- wife, and "flesh
of one flesh,'' he knelt down and in
voked the blessing of high heaven
upon them, praying that their future
livesnilght never be overshadowed
by the clouds of chilling adversity,
but always remain bright and harmo
nious ; and then he dismissed them
with his own blessing.
Driving-Jo his boarding house, Tom
left his wife in the company of a few
lady friends, and went out to look af
ter his imprisoned father-in-law.
When he arrived at the ofllce of the
magistrate who had issued the war
rant, he found that Archibald Norris
hail already been brought up for trial.
After speaking a few wortls apart to
the justice, Tom turned to tne mer
chant aud .said :
"Sir, at the request of my wife, I
withdraw my complaint against you.
You are free."
"Your wife !" he said, looking hard
at Tom and sneering.
"Yes. I take thep!easure of in
forming you that Bessie and myself
were married this evening at three
o'clock, just.
"The devil you were!" mattered
old Arclbald, as he rose and departed,
without deigning to cast another
glance at his enterprising son-in-law.
But the old man did not remain
long mail, He saw that he.was com
pletely sold, and that the best thing
he could .do was to foagive the happy
couple ami take them to his home.
So, on that self same evening, he
sent his carriage around, with ah' in
vitation to Tom and Bessie to come;
and when they had come and knelt
nt his feet, he magnanimously forgave
them.
Nor had he; "in after- years, any
