The young people of oor town were delightfully entertained Saturday even ing at the home of Judge Wait. Sympathy for the Boers has lessened somewhat since a resident Boer planned and executed an attack upon the pupils aiid teachers of the public school. The Transvaal in this case was a grass plat and the diamond a rnbber ball. With ' out the formality of issuing an ulti matum the Boer opened fire upon "rvWt leaving the Transvaal, the , e.iond and two vacnms in the hands -" of the enemy. A general panic then prevailed in the tlree .English divisions and on every street were seen flying fugitives. Having cleared the field in front the Boer executed a flank move ment and came in contact with one of the division commanders whom he m it lit have captured had it not been for a picket fence which eervtd the purpose of a Modder riyer. Reinforcements quickly reaching the besieged comman der, the enemy moved slowly back to bis traenches. The English are still on the aggressive but there is little hope of tein able to hold the Transvaal long enough to regain the diamond.

One week of the A . , . year liKKJ lias passed away a no we should remember this as one of the weeks of mid-winter's mildness. Should any preventing providence Interfere with ye old scribes chronology 100 years hence be it now forever known, (until "night is turned into day" and winter into sum mer) that Oregon saw this kind of a winter in I860.
