Pi qneer GoxeT Hon. Jesse Looney, an old resident of Oregon, having crossed tbe Plains in 1843, and settled in what is now Marion county, died oa Thursday morning, March 25th, jq the CDth year of his age, at Salem, where he had gone for medical treatment. He has lived the past twenty-six years on his farm, twelve miles from this city, on the stage road leading to Salem. He took a prominent part in the organiza tion of the Territory ot Oregon, serving as a member of the provisional legisla ture. He crossed the Plains in company with Hon. Jesse Applegate, Daniel Wal do and others of lesser note. He was born in one of the Southern States, prob ably Georgia, but was a true and noble patriot, and held that an American's first duty and obedience was to the "Old Flag." He was therefore a firm and consistent Union man ; a kind and affec tionate husband and father ; an accom modating and agreeable neighbor; a Christian gentleman, who has passed peacefully from earth, leaving Dumerous relatives and friends to mourn the loss of his presence among them. He leaves a wife and ten children, five boys and five girls, living"jthree children, boys, passed into the spirit land before their father. . . Narrow Escape. From Mr. John Crouch, of Jefferson, we learn that Hon. Isaac Cox, of Josephine, met with an ac cident on last Tuesday, near David Wal do's, some six miles this side of Salem, that came near ' terminating the mortal career of one of the notable "fourteen." The horse on which he was riding fell down, unseating Mr. Cox from the saddle, but leaving one foot in or through the stirrup. As soon as the horse regained his legs he (the horse) commenced run ning and kicking, dragging Mr. Cox .some two or three hundred yards, whoc a lady came running out of a house by the roadside, and in attempting to stop the animal, only succeeded in turning him back on his tracks. When the horse had made about the same distance on the "homo stretch," fortunately for Mr. Cox, the boot pulled off, or the foot made its escape from the boot and the stirrup at one and the same time, and Mr. Cox was left to us yet awhile, but badly "bruised, torn, soiled, a contused ankle, Ac. Mr. Crouch happening along with a buggy, kindly took Mr. Cox in and conveyed him to Salem, where his bruis es will receive the proper medical atten tion. By this accident Josephine came ' near losing one of its brightest lights. With the usual liberality of the P. T. Company toward all institutions of publie utility, A. A. McCully, President of the Company, has kindly placed at the dis posal of. the Pre Company of this city, free of charge, the fine passenger steam er, A limy, for the double purpose of civins: all those who desire to aid the Fire Compauy in their efforts to fully equip and provide themselves with the proper means for the successful extin guishment of fires, tc do so, and at the same time net the full value of the money contributed, in the way of an excursion up the Willamette river. Agreeable to arrangements made, the steamer Albany will leave Peach & Monteith's wharf in this city at 7 o'clock, on next Tuesday morning (23d), and proceed as far up the river as the stage of water will per mit, returning in the evening. The Albany Brass Pand have kindly volun teered their services on the occasion. Participants can provide their own lunch, or get dinner on the boat a basket din ner will probably be the order. As the object to which the receipts of the occa sion will be devoted is a laudable one, and as the price of tickets is so low that all will be able to procure them, it is an ticipated that "everybody and his wife" will go. Tickets 50 cents each, to be obtained of Messrs. D. M. Thompson, Jos. Nixon, G. H. Bartges, A. N. Arnold or at this office. Members of the Fire Company are requested to appear in full uniform. Don't fail to be on hand at the time, as the boat will start precisely at 7 o'clock. . - . Circuit Court Convened on 3Ion day, Judge Boise presiding.

Marshall was driving a hack to which were attached four horses, the other day, between this city and Brownsville, when the hack went into a deep hole in the road with a sudden jerk that threw him out of the hack into the mud. Ans. fell head first, but the earth was soft and he found no difficulty in penetrating it to his shoulders. The team being now free of restraint, ran half a mile in good style, but, fortunately, done no damage to themselves or hack Odd Fellows Celebration. The different lodges of Odd Fellows through out this State will assemble at Salem, on , londay, the 26th of April, to celebrate the semi-centenial anniversary of tho order in the United States. Past Grand Representative, Hon. Nathan Porter, has accepted an invitation to, and will deliver, the oration on the occasion.

T- r National Lincoln Monument Association. The loyal people of the United States of all classes, feeling a love and venera tion for the great patriotism, noble char acter and unequalled services of Abra ham Lincoln, late President of tho United States, who fell, by the hand of a foul assassin, a martyr to the great cause of Human Rights, and desiring to express their appreciation of his many virtues and sublime character in a manner worthy of the American name, and commemorate in the most fitting way the great charter of emancipation and Liberty in pur land, Congress, in order to make effectual such a desire passed, a law which was approved by the President, March 30th, 1867, in corporating the "National Lincoln Mon ument Association." The intent and purpose of this Association is to collect funds and make all necessary plans and arrangements to erect a suitable monu ment to that noblest and purest of patri ots and statesmen, somewhere within the grounds in the City of Washington. This Association has agents in every city, town and hamlet in the United States, whose duty and pleasure it is to take contributions, from the smallest to the greatest, and forward the same to the Treasurer of the Association, Hon. F. E. Spinner, at Washington City. It is ex pected every true and loyal citizen of the United States will wish to contribute something towards the erection of a last ing monument to commemorate the devo tion to Country and Liberty that inspired the great soul of our martyred President, and caused him to live and act for his country and the noblest ends and high est good of humanity. Every true man and woman whose earnest co-operation at home during the great struggle for nation al life and the principles of civil liberty, gave strength to our cause; every soldier and sailor who fought, on land or on sea, to uphold and maintain the "Old Flag, will esteem it a pleasure, an honor, to be numbered among the contributors to this monument. Knowing this to be the case, this Association was formed, agencies distributed throughout the country, thus giving each a chance to contribute his or her mite to this noble and patriotic object, so that when the work shall be completed it will be eminently national, a source of pride and glory to our country and an honor to our people. Our worthy Postmaster, E. A. Free land, is agent for the Association in this cicy, and will take charge of any contri butions made by our citizens. The names of those subscribing are written in a book furnished by the Association These books are to be bound and deposit ed in the monument, when completed. Let all who can, contribute immediately, so that the work may be promptly done. Medical Card. Seo the card of Dr. C. II.
