One of the completest establishments of
this kind is located iu this city, at the
foot of Lyou street, on the river bank,
owned by Messrs. Ahhousc & Co. Be
sides a splendid l'laner they have ''nu
merous" machinery for "gouging,"
"boring," "jointing," "molding," (tech
uical phrases), etc., of the latest aud best
patents, which enables them to complete,
in the very best and most satisfactory
manner, in a brief space of time, orders
tor any and all kiuds of material used in
the construction of buildings. The busi
'ncss of this firm, by fair dealing and
good work, has increased so rapidly of
late, that they contemplate erecting an
addition of sixty ieet to their large fac
tory, to give them "elbow room,' and
to enable them to complete more rapidly
all orders for material. They are pre
pared to do mill work in a satisfactory
manner. The business integrity and
enterprise exhibited by the proprietors of
this factory, entitle them to the large
patrouage and entire confidence of the
community. Such men at the head of
business' enterprises, give tone and char
acter to a city, and their prosperity is a
su'o index ot the growth and prosperity
of the community in which they reside.

i at At accident. we noucea in our
last issue the death of a little son of Mr.
Elliott formerly a resident of Linn county,
but at present a resident of Mendocino
county, California. A correspondent of
the Sacramento Union gives the following
account of the sad occurrence :
An incident occurred here on the 9th
inst., resulting in the death of a little son,
asred nine years, of a man named Elliott
vho lately rented the ranch bclongirg to
Col. Henley, in this valley. little
George unkown to his parents procured a
pistol at the house, and, in company with
a little Indian boy, mounted a horse and
started down to the field in quest of
something to shoot at. feeeing a bird,
the little fellow dismounted, and finding
that he could not cock the pistol readily,
he placed the muzzle against his stomach,
so that he might use the fingers of both
hands for the purpose. While so doing
the pistol was discharged, the ball enter
ing about the groin. He, however,
mounted his horse and rode home.
Medical assistance was promptly at hand,
but the wound was mortal. Death releas
ed the little fellow from his misery the
day following.
. Just Arrived. Raphael Cheadle,
Esq., announces through oar columns
this morning, that he received by last
steamer a large invoice of late styles of
dry goods, fresh groceries, etc., which he
will sell to customers at Portland prices,
O lly adding freight. He will also pay
Portland prices for all kinds of produce.
Mr. Cheadle's large stock of goods and
tl3 prices at which he sells, commend
bim to the continued patronage of his
large and increasing number of customers.
Men of large business capacity always

to an examination of their wares, and thus

Ochoco Valley.! From a private
letter from Ochoco Valley of a late date,
we learn that they are having a very
pleasant winter so far, scarcely any rain
and but little snow j haviug fell in the
valley during tho Vinter. About Christ
mas occurred the heaviest fall of snow,
some two and a-half inches in depth,
which, however, disappeared in two day:,
The winter is spoken of so mild, that
there has not teen more than two days
that a inau could u-it work out d:ors very
comfortably. Very little plowing had
been done, us there jhad not been rain
cnough. Tho newj school house was
about completed, and Mr. Pickett had
been engaged as teacher. Stock of all
kinds were looking well, were no trouble,
aud required little or no attention: A
crop from one acre of oats,- put iu last
season, had just been thrashed out, and
yielded fifty bushels.: The health in the
valley was gocd. About the only com
plaint was from toothache. A young
lady of the valley was suffering extreme
ly with the toothache, and as no surgical
instruments could be procured iu the
valley, a pah of nippers were called into
use, and s;vcn teeth drawn, iho young
lady is doing well. Gophers are spoken
of as having abounded last season, and
as having " goue alter " potatoes like
" Sam II ill " whoever he was. Veni
son is spoken of as not being difficult of
obtaining. Bearing tho lack of mail fa
tililies, Ochoeoans seem to enjoy life
about as well as the '" outside world,'' at.d
are generally happy and couteuted with
their valley. i
Anniversary Ball. Officers and
members of ouiFire Company, during
the week, have been using all tbeir spare
time in decorating Parrish Hall for the
ball on the 22d. The hall, when fully
decorated as the Company contemplate,
will be a " wilderness of beauty," rivall
ing a fairy palace, and will be worth the
price of 'admission for the privilege pf
seeing. The supper will be "set" in
the old Masonic Hall, and as a commit
tee of ladies have kindly volunteered to
arrange matters, and put the eatables
on the table in proper shape, that feature
of the ball will undoubtedly be a success.
Chickens, hams, cakes, oysters, and in
fact all the concomitants of a lordly
banquet, will be spread out and partaken
of by those who are fortunate enough to
be present. Good music has been se
cured, and we predict that the event will
be hercalter quoted as one of unalloyed
pleasure and happiness to all.
Fatal Accident. The Unionist of
the 17th says : j
Yesterday as a raft of logs" was being
brought down the river, it stuck on a
snag in Independence Bend above here,
and parted in the middle. One of the
men on the raft whose name we could
not learn, slipped through the opening.
Tlie logs then came together agaic and
caught the man by the waist crushing
him so badly that he died in aboiit three
hours. j
We learu that the name of the man
killed by the above accident, is Michael
Last, formerly a resident of Albany, pre
vious to his death ! residing it Buena
Vista. I
A Rare Chance. As Messrs; W.
W." Parrish & Co. will commence selling
their large stock of goods at auction on

ular article of dry j goods, clothing or
hardware, should be on hand to "bid."
Bargains will undoubtedly be be obtained
by those who do attend. Remember
that Monday, Feb. j 22d, the sale will
commence.' j ; - K- ,
