The Democracy of this Tieinity, ia view ef the fact that they had succeeded in electing their ticket by such overwhelming (!) major ities throughout the State, concluded to "ratify" with a torchlight procession and the usual etceteras, which conclusion they carried into execution on Saturday night last. The procession, as to numbers, was not much to speak of, in truth rather a slim affair a kind of hurly-fcurly, Without order or shape, in which the juveniles predominated and done the yelling. The affair, such as it was, was led by Chief Marshal, J udge Powers, and the Albany Brass Band. Assistant Mar ehal Arnold, mounted on a fiery steed, done the duty assigned him bravely and Well, lending' additional dignity to the Boeoe by his serene presence. But the big featured the occasion wad the trans parencies, and although much ill-feeling was engendered among Democrats by some of them, yet as "picters" they showed the hand of an artist. Tho one representing Kev. Dr. mil as seated in his buggy driving out of town on the morning of the election to escape voting the county Democratic ticket, although entirely without foundation, yet looked ' plausible to those unacquainted with the facts, that it excited no little com-, ment. The gentleman who carried the transparency got into a "little difficulty during the evening with a fellow Demo crat, which culminated in a knock down. Suffice it to say that, the bitter feeling aroused by these, to say the least, injudi cious transparencies, among Democrats, will not soon be forgiven or forgotten by the gentlemen caricatured or their friends. After the torchlight came the speaking. An immense number of people, Borne of them voters, had gathered on the Court 'House steps, where they were regaled . with burning, red-hot, chain-lightning eloquence from the bedrocker, Mr. Bur nett, of Corvallis, and our own pets, Hon Qo. R. Helm and A. C Our newly elected County Judge, J. J. "Whitney, Esq., refused to take part in the meeting, as he would not thus coun tenance the insults offered to prominent life-long Democrats . by the caricatures carried in the. procession.' Those who did speak done excellently well (we have it from Democrats who can be relied on as knowing of what they assert) and were greeted with considerable -'chin music" The St. Charles hotel and the Court House cupola were each brilliantly light ed up in honor of the occasion. During the-continuance of the meeting good order prevailed, and Republicans mingled with Democrats, enjoying the affair (es pecially the transparencies and the huge procession) with greater zest than Dem ocrats themselves, some of whom had the unqualified impudence to say that the whole thing partook largely of the char acter of a fizzle I The fact of the wholo matter is, the Saturday night "blow out" was as good a "card" as the 'Republicans of Linn county want, and the more fre quent they make them, the better they, will please us. .

From Mr, TVra. MoFadden we learn that the Chris tian campmeeting now in progress on the Rick real, - under the charge of Revs Harris and Campbell, is meeting with the largest success. A large number had already experienced a change of heart and been added to the church. On last Sabbath it is thought there were not less than five thousand persons on the oamp ground. - The meeting will continue over to-morrow. Severe AccipENT. Wed nesday af ternoon a young man named Thomas Daniels, in the employ of Messrs. Beach & Monteith, fell from their wharf to the deck of one of the P. T. Co.'s steamers, a distance of fourteen feet, and was severely hurt. ... He was helpine to load the boat with sacks of oats, when the pile of sacks suddenly slid from their position and knocked him from the wharf on to the boat, and, we believe, one of the sacks fell upon him. He fell on his side on the gunwale, and it was feared that he had received severe internal injuries. His physician, however, pronounces him out of danger this morning, and that he will be all right again in a few weeks. Brief Mention. Mr. Wm. Cannon j The Four Wondera., lost a fine cow on Wednesday.
