succeed in gelling admitjfefoSite union as a state it will then be possible lor the first time to travel from the Atlantic to the Pacific ocean without passing through a terri tory. The nearest this can be accom plished now is by going through Col orado. But here Utah makes a break in the solid line of states, and further South the gap is made still wider by NeW;Jl(Iexico and Arizona. When Dakota, M Dakota, Montana and Washington are fully; ftttieWmr Union the only territory to be passed through will be the • pan handle of Idaho. If this had been annexed to Washington, as the first bill for admission of that territory pro vided an unbroken line of states, along the Northern edge ot the union would now be assured. A few years, however, arc certain to fill up this gap and com plete a solid pathway of stales across the cootinent. What Puzzled Mr. Luttrell. Among the members of the Forty- thiid Congress was Hon. John £. Lut trell, of California. The following story illustrates forcibly the condition of affairs then and the justice of the present demand for a reform in the rules of the house: “When 1 came to Washington,” said Mr. Luttrell to ex Senator Nes mith ot Oregon, who was then a mem ber of the house, “I thought I was to be a member ol a deliberative assem bly'of represenative Qgcrs, each one on an equality with the others, each with equal voice in the proceedings. 1 find thatl am mistaken. It is more like a city in its workings. Here are men engaged in finance; here are others engaged in commercial pursuits. There are some who buy and sell, there -are others interested in foreign matters. Some are gentlemen of elegant leisure. TKeiiefom rings and rings within rings. There are business sections, the thick- 3y settled portions and the suburbs. “As for myself I live in the suburbs, 30 far'.from the business center that 1 miay rise in my seat every day from December rill July without once catch ing the speaker's eye. Nesmith, I can take an Indian blanket and completely cover with it the men who shape and control the legislation of the nation within this so called deliberate body." you always did have a eal offool in your composition,” jtttt Oregonian. 1 Why go to the'trouble of obtaining an Indian blanket! Why not get a dinner plate and clap it on the head of the speaker?” —Washington Post. Pearls of Thought. No physician can heal the wounds of the tongue. Friendship is the highest degree of perfection in society. Censure is a tax man pays to the public for being eminent. He who says what he likes ittust hear what he does not like. A guilty weight upon the heart takc3 the sun out of the sky. The highest exercise of charity is charity towards the uncharitable. He who thinks his place below him will certainly be below his place. It ja no honor or profit to appear in tb&'iuena. The wealth is not for those who contend. True goodness is like the glow worm—it shines most when no eyes but heaven arc upon it. Wo are more apt to use spectacles to behold other men’s fault's than looking-glasses to survey om own. A man should never blush in con fessing his errors, for he proves by avowal tbnt he is wiser to day than yesterday. AdiOplely, man of merit is never re- puWve;'and ns he is named his physique is forgotten; the mind passes through it to see the soul.— Ex. Editor—“I’m sorry, Squaggs, but you’ll have to go.” Foreman—“I’d like to know what I’ve done.” Edi tor—“Well, I wrote about that gal lant old war-horse, Col. Bilger, and you set it up that gallous old saw horse. It’s your place cr my life, and [ vajtt to live. It oldest man in the world, in all robability, is Nagy Fercnez ot Bares, iungary. He was bom in Hedrahelz ai year* ago. Twenty years of his febe spent as a soldier and he (ought gainst the first Napolean in several tmous battles. nGALTUFtlL EXEBCISE. Only a few jnonths ngo these romping, rosy- tieeked lasses were puny, delicate, pale, sickly iris. By the aid of I)r.

It is care fully compounded, by an experienced and skillful physician, and adapted to woman’s delicate organization. It is purely vegetable in its composition and perfectly harmless in any condition of the system. It imparts strength to the whole system. l or over worked, “worn-out,”“run-down, debilitated teachers, milliners, dressmakers, seamstresses, “shop-girls," housekeepers, nursing mothers, and feeble women generally, I)r. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is the greatest earthly boon, licing uncqualed as tin appetizing cor dial and restorative tonic. It is the only medit’ino for women, sold by druggists, under ajwsitivc guarantee from the manufacturers, that it will give satisfaction in every case, or money will be refunded.
