-From the Platte Argus. M ultnomah C ity , O rkuon 'T erritory . 'STarch 11, 1844— Friend Me Lane.—There Sis again an opportunity of sending letters •from this to the States. Tl is therefore with great pleasute, that I now sit down to write ■sto you. I wrote to you last fall, giving as ^pltin and true an account of the country as §1 was able. Since that time, 1 have laid off *a town, the name of which heads this letter ''It is six hundred yards' below the great falls, -on the west side of the Multnomah, or \Wallamette river. A Mr. Moore claims the Tails on this side, and has laid off a town, which he calls the Robiu’a Nest. Me Laughiin claims the East side 6f the fulls, and calls his place Oregon City. There is /-but one island in the river at the falls, ' which does not overflow, and a company to which I belong, called the “ Oregon Milling Company,” has erected a saw and flouring mill upon it. This is doing well. Dr. Me* -Langhiin has one mill in operation on the ^tiiain shore, and will have an other in oper ation in a few days, ns both the former do not supply the demand for lumber. The -Doctor is also building a flouring mill Tour ^stories high. This is to have tour run of atones. Wheo I came here, nineteen months ago, there was but four or five houses—now there is upwards of eighty good buildings, nearly all of two stories, and four or five three stories high. — If there had been plen ty of nails, we should have bad a number more up. If a supply of nails reaches us this spring, we shall have two hundred; were extracted from his arm. They were! ^ent up from Vancouver, where he wa9 ta*' -ken to the surgeon of the Hudson’s Bay Company. Every thing was done for him that could be, but in vain. Our little colony has sustained a great loss in the. death of this amiable and talented young man. He was from Newburyport, Mass. Mr. Rogers is getting well. The people are very much excited against Dr. White, who is very un popular here. My health is very good I hope this letter will find you labouring for, us as in times past, and your family in the enjoyment of good health. Write to us, and send us papers —this is all we want to j be quite happy. I saw Mr. Leoox, of your countv a few days ago. He is well pleased, ond says his ploughing is as good us the best in Platte county. My respect* to all From your old friend, HUGH BURNS. To Allen McLane, Esq., Platte city, Mo. ijaiPmexnasvramMm ■ fliouses here before this reaches yon, *nd some of these of brick, for a company from Baltimore are now opening a brick yard. .A tan yard is also being established. \The fact is, we have mechanics of all kinds here, tho’ not a tenth of the number of each kind required. So you can see we are all at wark. Yes, my friend, every man) works here, except a few grog-shop loafers, •and they won’t work. As there is no{ whiskey, or corn dodger here, they talk of .-going to California soon. This is no place for drunkards or idlers. Winter is past but it was no winter. It ^was rather a blooming spring, for we had ■but little rain, and no snow, and the grass jgreen all the time. We have had but two ‘/days’ rain in the last forty-five. I saw cat tle yesterday, which had run all winter, in .finer cooditon than I ever saw any in your 'State. There will be at least 150,000 more • bushels of wheat than there would have been, had the weather prevented ploughing ; .-as many, who, but for this favoring weather would not have raised any, will now have from 40 to 50 acres. Wheat is the gold of this country, and always will be. It is selling from one dollar to one dollar and a half, ns ;seeding time advances. Flour brings four 'dollars per 100 lbs. ; beef 6 ; pork 10 but ter 25 cts per pound ; potatoes 50 cts. per bushel—every thing els in proportion. La- berers, wages to 1,50 per day, and found • mechanics from $2 to $3,50 perday and found. This is the country for a poor man. You ask why? Because there is no whis key, and it possesses such natural advan tage and beauty of climate. AM we want here is Dr. Linn’s bill to spass. lhar we may know what to depnnd *i|jpon. Uncle Sam had bitter be doing wmeluing for this country, for if not, with in three years, it will be too late. You laugh; but if you live you will see it. Therefore, stir them up, Mac, for we do not want trouble here, and would all re* ijweedf the star spangled banner embraced us with its ample folds. Our flag, flying by authority, would make a vast difference .•&ere. i have not yd seen our esteemed *ftiend P. H. Rarneit, but he is 20 miles be low this, on the river, and doing well. Ap plegate and others are building a town at the mouth cf the Columbia. The falls I .consider the key of the country, for every thing is raised above the falls. On last Monday the people at the falls ■were very much alarmed by the reports of guns, aod to their amazement every thing xvns soon explained, I will give you a true ac- countofit, forthere willbeexaggerated state wents made by those who know nothing about it. About a year ago a complaint -was made to Dr. E. \V-hite ( Indian sub -agent) of this territory, by a Mulatto man, named Winslow, that Milile Indian had stolen his horse. Dr. White was then at .the fills. He told Winslow to get six men and go and bring the Indian that after noon. The doctor did not go with them, as I set him across the river, and he went up the country. Winslow and the men went, but the Indians run them off. This caused .good deal of Alarm at the time. Dr. White was senbfoT, but paid no attention. This staggered the few friends he had left, o whom I was one. Last fall two Indians went to his house, as he alleges, to kill him Thay broke some things in the house. The Indians say Dr. W. promised them a plough but did not give it to them. Three weeks ago, four Iudians were killed by an Indian Dr. White came, got 10 men,and went out to take the-Indian but in a short time came ’back without him. He then offered 100 do! lars reward for the Indian, aud went to his own house, 30 miles from this place. On Monday the Indian came into “ Oregon 'City,’’close to Dr. McLaughlin’s mill where some 25 or 30 men were at work. Wins low and some white men went to take him and got close to him. He saw Winslow; fired his gun, which missed its mark, the ball lodging in a tree on this side of the riv* rr, within two feet of me, for I was at work an my garden at the time. The Indian then fired a pistol, two balls from which lodged in the shoulder of G. W. Le Breton, clerk of the court, tearing the arm dreadfully. Mr. L seized the Indian with the other Land and threw bin# down. Winslow then mn up and knocked out the Indians brains, in the meantime five Indians fired their guns, and then their arrows, wounded two ■men with the -latter, of whom young Star ing Rogers (who formely worked for you) was one. Mr. Rogers was wounded in the left arm. Mr. Le Breton lived but two 4ays. i saw the balls this evening which E lder B enjamin H a r v e y .— It is stated in the N. Y. BaptistKegister that this aged minister, now in the cue hundred and tenth year of his age, was present at the celebra tion in Utica on the 4th of July, and open ed the exercises at the church w ith prayer. The house was crowded to overflowing,and multitudes were unable to get in. A gen tleman who was present gives the following account of the spectacle ;— “ To him it appeared the most wonder- ful that could be recorded, and without a parallel among all that was presented mi that day throughout the republic. He gazed on him as he rose into the pulpit to lead iu I prayer with peculiar and indescribable emotions; and while he gave utterance to his address before the mercy seal, he felt deeply impressed by the simplicity and pi ety of his heart. His warm and ardent love of freedom and equality of human rights was strongly evinced, and his lender and affec ! lionate feelings in behalf ol those unrecon ciled to God. A patriot of the revolution, and one ad vancing on the tenth year of his second cen- I„rv_in body and mind so vigorous, so em phatically a patriarch, in such an altitude —leading the devotions of such an assembly on such a grand national festival, invested the scene with impressive sublimity, and gave it, altogether unparalh'd peculiarity aud glory ; such a scene as w ill probably never occur a gain in this eutire republic. — Dem.

Haviog made arrangements in the city of New York with the most fashiona- Like the maiden of the fairy tale, we destroy j ble publishers of the American Fashions, we our spell when we open it to examine in shall receive all the variations in the Fashions what character it is written. In its ignore j every month. ance is its; happiness, there is none of the! 01^* CUTTING done at short notice, in the anxiety that is the fever of hope.-no fears, ’ mosl fashionable for there is no calculation — no selfishness, for it asks for nothing—no disappointment, for nothing is expected ; it is like the deep enjoyment of basking in the bright sunshine, without thinking of either how the glad warmth ripens our fruits aud flowers, or how the dark clouds in the distance fore bode a storm. I doubt whether this morning twilight of the affections has the same extent of dura tion and influence in man that it has iu wo man ; the necessity of exertion for attain ment has been early inculcated upon him —he knows, that it he would win, he must woo— and his imagination acts chiefly as a stimulus. But a woman’s is of a more pas sive kind ; she has no motives for analyz ing feelings whose future rests not with her- otflf: mors imaginative from early seden tary habits, she is content to dream on, and some chance reveals to herself the secret -she would never have learnt from self-investi* gatiao. Imbued with all the timidity, ex. ailed by all the romance of a first attach ment, never did a girl yet calculate on mak ing what is called a conquest of the man she loves. A conquest is the resource of wea riness— the consolation of disapointment— a second world of vanity and ambition, sigh ed for like Alexander’s but not till we have wasted and destoyed the heart’s first sweet World of early life.— Sal. Emporium. B e k i n d to your N eig hb or s . — We ought not to give heed-to tales that vilify and abuse a neighbor. It is easy tube mis taken. It may be that no such thing as is alleged against him has ever been done and innocence may be where guilt is imputed. It is God like to awaken joy and relieve distress; here there can be no mistake.— Opportunities are frequent whereby we as sist and benefit a fellow being. To pro duce smiles and gladness, instead of weep ing and sorrow, is certainly a Christian act. How*much do we err, when indulging in acrimonious and bitter temper towards those whom we imagine have injured and offended u s ! It may be and probably is true, that they are mistaken in relation to the supposed injury.— We aught not, as we too often do, seek to bite and devour one another. If we would reflect credit upon humanity, we must be charitable and forgiving. Relieved as society is, in such a great measure, from the dreadful eivle and curse of intemperance, and enjoying, as we now do, exemption from one of the most injurious pructiees that ever obtained among men, it seem3 to be our duty more than ever to aim at a high stan dard of moral excellency. Not only should we speak no evil to cue another, but we should endeavor to do good to all. The means of usefulness we are furtmhed with, the object upon which they may be brought to bear, and upon which good may be pro duced do constantly surround us. Let us therefore, study to render to our fellow men services that will be gratifying and accepta ble; let us learn to Toi give one another the faults that have been committed, and to be kind, gentle and courteous to each other.— Unless mutual-concession is made mutual forbearance exercised, much of happiness will be lost.
