CORRESPONDENCE.
While on my late visit to your
place, although unwell, yet I wish it
distinctly un erstood,that it was not
the climate of the Sound that caused
my sickness. I am satisﬁed that I
had incurred the affection ‘of my
ailment hefore'l left here. I spoke
in a former letter of the kind recep
tion iven me, by different parties.
It is difﬁcult oftentimes to make per
sonal references in these things with
out evokin a feeling that should not
arise. Aug when I mention that for
ﬁve years while passing through
much ﬁnancial embarraament, I al
wa 3 found the Hon. (LE. P. Wood,
of l’ort Discovery, a friend, and that
now again, when on our late visit he
and his estimable wife, received and
treated us, with our company, in a
most generous and hospitable man
ner, it is not only natural but meet
that I should think well of,und speak
in becoming terms and regard of him
and his. Our esteem also, of Doctor
and Mrs. N. D. Hill of your place,
who have always made us so wel
come to their home and christian
hospitality, we have no language ade
quate to express.
Let me here bespeak a word in
commendation of Rev. Mr. Parsons.
your new preacher. Port Townsend
l 8 sertainly favored in securing this
talented young man ass minister,
and its people should certainly rally
around him and give him a liberal
support and attentive hearing. He
is no novice in the scriptures, nor is
his efforts that of the school boy.
Since my last the constant rains
have made things quite gloomy.
The sohriqnet term “wel'l'oot,” as
applied to Oregoniansl think is very
ﬁttin . The manner in which the
peopfe, duck-like, plunge about
thrOugh mud and rain, give much
appropriateness to the appellation.
It seems as though winter had really
commenced, and that too, very much
ahead of the people, for there are
but few who are ready for it. The
fall work (A merely began. The most
of the fruit and potatoes are still un
gathered. A great deal of wheat is
unthreshed, and what is worse is
growing in the stack. Much hey has
rotted in the meadows. However,
the great abundance already saved,
makes this loss triﬂing compared
with the grain loss. With all the
injury that the wheat has sustained,
there is a Wonderful amount being
marketed. (llle ol our citizens just
