A village doctor in Oregon in casting about for a new place to locate, was captivated by the name of Castle Dome Landing, A. T., and accordingly wrote to the worthy P. M. of that place. We append both letters: COTTAGE GROVE, Oregon April 10. P. M. CASTLE DOME LANDING, A. T.—Will you answer my letter and give me the information I will ask you for and oblige. What is the population of your town, and what are your surroundings in the way of resources of wealth? How is the climate for health, society, etc. Have you any doctors, and what kind of a location have you for a doctor ofent strength to drive a rail through the crust will had on releasing it that it will disappear altogether—[Terri-tional Enterprise] Fast Railway Speeds We have received from Mr. J. T. Burleigh, chief operator, West Jersey Railway, his certified copy from the register of train of the performance of the special passenger train, on the above road, on Saturday, April 22d last. Conductor, Mayhew; engineer, Reinhart; engine No. 22 (class C, anthracite), burning bituminous coal; combined car No. 375, passenger cars Nos. 289 and 600; number of passengers on train, 124. The following time was made: Between Glascob and Vineland, 16 miles, 14 minutes; between Woodbury and Court House, 61 1-10 miles, 60 minutes; between Westville and Cape May, 76 1-10 miles, 76 minutes. This is certainly very fast running—[Scientific American]. In "Christian Past and Present," lately published in England, the following ghost story is especially curious as being the only recorded example of a death-bed apparition witnessed and heard by two persons: When the English forces were in possession of Martinique as the seven years' war, Major Blomberg was detached from headquarters to a distant part of the island, and there died of a violent fever. The morning after his decease a Col. Stewart was surprised, while in bed at headquarters, by the appearance of Major Blomberg in regimental dress, who, in answer to an alarmed inquiry why he was not at his post, said: "I died yesterday at 7 A.M.," and then he delivered an earnest request that his friend would, on his return to England, attend to the wel- COTTAGE GROVE, Oregon April 10. P. M. CASTLE DOME LANDING, A. T.—Will you answer my letter and give me the information I will ask you for and oblige. What is the population of your town, and what are your surroundings in the way of resources of wealth? How is the climate for health, society, etc.? Have you any doctors, and what kind of a location have you for a doctor of twenty years' experience? Will give you reference if you desire. Is your climate dry? I wish to go to a dry, mild climate for my health. Too wet in Oregon for health. Yours, etc., Geo. Currier. To which P. M. makes answer as follows: To a doctor of twenty years' experience, Cottage Grove, Oregon: My DEAR SIR.—Your esteemed favor of April 10th is at hand, requesting information as to this section of the country. As to our surroundings, I would reply that we are surrounded on the west by the Colorado river, a beautiful little stream, the water of which is said to be very good used as a beverage. On the east and south we are generally surrounded by a sand storm, and on the north by rock. The population of our town is variable. I have known there to be as high as 300 people here in the morning, and not more than 16 or 17 at night, the difference being generally occasioned by the approach of the sheriff or a vigilance committee. Our resources of wealth are varied and attractive. I have known one man with a cow and a calf and a branding iron to raise 300 head of stock in one year. This, however, was an exceptional instance, at least he found it so. He met with an accident by running against a tree when he had a rope around his neck. Our climate is dry and salubrious, impregnated with a little warmth, especially in August. I have known a man to drink three bottles of whisky in one day, and still complain of the drought. We raise all kinds of cereals here except wheat, oats, barley and corn; those we import mostly in a liquid form as the inhabitants like them better that way. I doubt that if a doctor of your experience would do well here, as the people have an necessed and heard by two persons: When the English forces were in possession of Martinique in the seven years' war, Major Bloomberg was detached from headquarters to a distant port of the island, and there died of a violent fever. The morning after his decease a Col. Stewart was surprised, while in bed at headquarters, by the appearance of Major Bloomberg in regimental dress, who, in answer to an alarmed inquiry why he was not at his post, said: "I died yesterday at 7 A.M., and then he delivered an earnest request that his friend would, on his return to England, attend to the welfare of his young son, then in the island, by seeing him put into possession of an estate in which he was entitled, the deeds of which were secreted in the private drawer of an old palk chest, in a house that he named in Yorkshire. Ho then disappeared, Col. Stewart directly called to Capt. Mounsey, who slept in the same room, and asked if he had seen Major Bloomberg. It proved that he had heard and seen the same as the Colonel. The other officers languished at the story, but soon afterward came tollings of the death of Bloomberg at the hour he had named. Mary Catheart has been sentenced to imprisonment for life in Massachusetts for selling rum without a license. At least such will perhaps be her punishment unless the Legislature should pass a pending bill to release her. She was sent to jail for six months, and additionally condemned to pay the costs of prosecution. She had no money. The status formerly provided that in such cases three months more of durance should satisfy the sentence, and then, on a report by the Sheriff to a Justice, the prisoner should be discharged. But in a recent revision the latter provision was accidentally omitted. Hence there is no present authority for letting Mary out. We must not be surprised to hear of a paper furniture factory starting into existence before long. Paper can now be made of strong fibres and compressed into a substance so hard that only a diamond can scratch it. A foreign journal says that wood will be superseded by paper. A man who eloped with a Wisconsin wife left a note for the husband: "I have tooked your woman; but you ar welcum to my last week's wages, wich I didn't draw; and I hoap that squares things." Put it to Proof. At a time when the community is flooded with so many unworthy devices and concoctions, it is refreshing to find one that is beneficial and pure. So conscious are the proprietors of Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, of the worth of their remedy, that they offer all who desire a trial bottle free of charge. This certainly would be disastrous to them did not the remedy possess the remarkable curative qualities claimed. Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption will positively cure Asthma, Bronchitis, Staphylomonas, Colds, Phthis- Our climate is dry and salubrious, impregnated with a little warmth, especially in August. I have known a man to drink three bottles of whisky in one day, and still complain of the drought. We raise all kinds of cereals here except wheat, oats, barley and corn; those we import mostly in a liquid form as the inhabitants like them better that way. I doubt that if a doctor of your experience would do well here, as the people have an unpleasant way of killing the doctor if the patient dies. I am, dear sir, yours, respectfully, P. M. at CASTLE DOME, A. T. Fishing in a Cornfield. In Colorado is a ten-acre field, which is no more nor less than a subterranean lake covered with soil about eighteen inches deep. On the soil is cultivated a field of corn, which produces thirty bushels to the acre. If any one will take the trouble to dig a hole to the depth of a spade-handle he will find it to fill with water, and by using a hook and line fish four or five inches long may be caught. The fish have neither scales nor eyes, and are perch-like in shape. The ground is a black marl in nature, and in all probability was at once time an open body of water, on which accumulated vegetable matter, which has been increased from time to time until now it has a crust sufficiently strong and rich to produce fine corn, although it has to be cultivated by hand, and it is not strong enough to bear the weight of a horse. While harvesting the hands catch great strings of fish by making a hole through the earth. A person rising on his heel and coming down suddenly can see the growing corn shake all around him.
