The Myror of Ireland, Mr. Sulivan pro prietor of the above named Hibernian, gave an entertainment at the city Hall on Wed nesday evening to a good audience which would have been much larger but from the fact of Lieut. r-chwatka's lecture, we were unable to attend both places so can give no report of the Hibernica: another entertain ment was given last night but as we had gone to press, can do no better for it than for Wednesday, we can however say of Wednesday evening, that every one with whom we have talked with on the subject speaks of it in the highest terms, and most if not all of them went agaiu last night. sire to grow fat will do well to call and par t ake. The North Western Marriage Insurance company ot Portlancf have established an agency in this city with Myer Harris as agent. The objects of this company are to insure unmarried persons, making the Policy payable at marriage, at any time after six months from the time of Insurance.

We know a lady at the Yaquina Bay who makes a frantic rush for the Gazette as soon as it arrives, shuts herself up in her room and spends six hours in its perusal, and is then cross for the next six hours because there is nothing in "that Corvallis paper." As soon as we get to be worth six million dollars we will issue a sixteen page daily for her special benefit. Monumental Engine Company, No. 2, met at the Court house Monday evening last, and amongst other things there transacted, on motion the following was unanimously adopted: "That the unlawful act of moving this company's engine last week be de nounced in the most positive and emphatic terms by this company as being unbecom ing the dignity of firemen or private citizens; and that they regard it as one of the basest insults to the members of Monumental Eh giae Company, and to all good citizens." Lieut. Fred Schwatka lectured at the College chapel on last Wednesday evening to a large and appreciative audience. The lecture was exceedingly interesting and dem onstrated the fact that the Caucasian race can endure anything that any other human can. His expedition extended over a period of eleven months in the Arctic regions, trav eling over 3000 miles by land by means of sledges drawn by Eskimo dogs. They start ed with four white men accompanied by several Eskimo, and during the journey lived on the meat of the reindeer. The Lieut, endured the emtreme cold weather and hardships incident to traveling through these cold and barren regions simply because he placed his party under the charge of an Eskimo guide and adapted themselves to the habits and dress of the Eskimo. On hia trip he discovered many relics and remains of Sir John Franklin's exploring expedition. We regret that the crowded condition of our columns forbid a more extended criticism of this lecture, which was certainly one of the most interesting we have had the pleasure of listening to for a long time, and rendered more interesting to Oregonians from the fact of the lecturer being one of our Oregon boys. He departed from this place to Albany yes terday morning, accompanied by his brother A. C. Schwatka to lecture there in the evening. The Condition of the President. The late dispatches indicate that the condi tion, of the President is still growing more and more unfavorable, and the nation now stands with sad expectancy waiting for the latest news and sending np fervent prayers that the good Father above would avert the calamity chat now seems almost certain to descend upon a grief stricken people. It would now look as though the physicians in charge had either themselves been deceived, all the while about the condition of their patient, or had knowingly deceived an anx ious but ever hopeful people. In either case would it not be right and proper to have a change ? Wanted. A few more cords of wood on subscription at this office. Bar Improvement. The Government work at Yaquina Bay jb how under full headway with a sufficient amount of the congresional appropriation left to do con siderable work. The Engine brought from Astoria on the tug last week is doing excel ent work and the stone and brnsh work is now progressing with accuracy and dispatch. While at the bay we were very kindly re ceived by the officers in charge, and through their kindness had frequent opportunity of visiting the scene of action with the best opportunities to take items, and however anxious one might feal to criticise, no fault can be found with the manner in which the work is being carried on. Mr. Polhemus seems determined to make the money go just as far as it will, using the same econ emy that he would in the distribution of his own private funds, and in this matter he is ably seconded by his assistant's, Meisr . Smith aud Edwards. After quietly looking on for a week we were confirmed in our former belief that those interested in the Bar improvement are to be congratulated on securing the services of the present officers in charge. Considerable benefit will be de rived from the present appropriation and if our suggestion of last week, or any other plan of raising a few thousand dollars, so that the work could be continued without cessation until another meeting of congress, we have the strongest belief that a sufficient appropriation would then be made to make Yaquina one of the beat barbors on the Pa cific coast. Overboard. A few days ago Emett, Wrenn left for Yaquina bay leaving his old gray horse and dray to be manipulated by Ben White. Ben was succeeding nicely in his new calling until last Tuesday when he and old gray departed from this place to the Corvallis grist mill loaded with two bales of wheat sacks, containing one thousand each, weighing about sixteen hundred . pounds. They airived at their place of destination in good shape when Ben and the gray were about congratulating themselves upon a safe and profitable trip. But just before the con gratulatory exercises commenced Ben pulled on the lines for the purpose of back ing the dray up to the place where the car go was to be discharged. The river how ever, with a bank about thirty feet high, was iust beyond and when Ben hollowed Who! Who! Who! at poor old gray, he did not appear to comprehend the full force and effect of the word but kept on backing un til cargo and dray both went over the bank into the deep and surging waters of the great Willamette. Ben jumped off of the cargo and the harness broke which left him and poor misguided gray safe on terratirma to behold the wrecked cargo floating off toward Portland. Ben has appelied for a new pattent for dumping drays. PHILOMATH. Editot's Gazette: At a quarterly Con ference of the U. B. Church, held in the College Chapel,- August 20th, 1881, the fol lowing i-esoliitjoivwas passed: Resolcsd, that in the case of the complaint of L Belknap against W. S. Walker, May 14 1881 the complaint was not made according to the disipline, nor in the right spirit; and that the quarterly Conference did not refuse to give a hearing upon any ground except the above two reasons; that the quarterly Conference exercised great patience and re spect for E Belknap in listening to a thing presented without respect to our laws; and that his statement through certain public prints, to the effect 'that he was refused a hearing, i3 in spirit untrue, and is likely to slander the quarterly conference, his pub lication relative to the matter requires re traction and explanation; anil untill the matter is made right, thi3 conference hob that he wronged the conference in a false statement. This Resolution wa3 ordered published in the Corvallid Gazette by the quarterly Conference. Julius Brounson, Secretary.

Last week Mr. Lewis Pettyjohn was go ing along the river road with his threshing machine, a nut which holds one side of the tongue to the axle came off, and the thresh er began to steer for the river bank which is only about two feet from the road in this place. He got off and was screwing on the nut when horses started, and over into the river went the thresher. The coupling broke and thus kept the horses from being dragged after it into the river. Loss, about $500. Salem Statesman. BOBN. To the wife of A. H. Wills in this city on the 22d inst., a daughter. DIED. Cougers. The Cougers got into Dr. Rich's flock of Angoria goats last Thursday, at his farm near Toledo, and killed fourteen.

A barn belonging to Portland Adams, a mile and a half west of McMinville, was burned one night last week. Something over 20 tons of hay, a gang-plow, sulky, hay :ork and other farming implements were destroyed. The barn when built a few years ago, cost 1200. The contents were valued at $400. No clue as to the cause of the fire. Oregonian. Died. From the effects of a kick by horse on Monday of last week, which struck him in the face with both feet, Mr. John A Wrenn died on Friday morning, the 19th inst. , at the age of 59 years. Mr. Wrenn was born in the city of Alexandria. D. C. , Aug. 1st, 1822, from whence he moved with his parents in 1827 to Columbiana County Ohio, in which state he remained until after the gold mines werejdiscovered in California. He emigrated to that state in 1850 and came from there to Portland, Oregon, in October of the same year. He lived at the latter place and in Yamhill county until 1853 when he was married to Elizabeth Waitt, and soon after removed to Benton county where he has ever since resided, except about three years of the time he returned and lived in Yamhill county, until about ten years ago he moved to Linn county, about three miles from this place, where he died. He leaves a bereaved wife and a large family of children relatives and friends to mourn his loss. Mr' Wrenn in his lifetime" was of a quick and impulsive disposition who always spoke his thoughts regardless of friend or foe, but he was an honest, upright citizen, and never in tending harm to any one. On last Sunday the funeral took place from the family residence, and his body was followed by a large con course of relatives and friends to its last resting place. The old and well known pioneer, Dr. Alfred M. Belt, formerly of Salem and lately of Independence, died at the latter place after a brief illness on the 18th inst. He leaves a bereaved wife and a large family of sorrowing children and many warm friends throughout this coast to mourn his loss. He was hurried on Sunday the 2l3t inst. at Salem by the Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Oregon. We will notice more fully in our next issue the par ticulars connected with his life, which we intended to do in our present issue but want of space has prevented us.
