A eable of the 7th inst. states that the
Germans are satisfied that France will
refuse their terms of peace, and are eonse

visions, destined for the re victualling of
Paris, for their own use. Nine provis

A man in Easton, Peon., who had stolen
some wood, tied it up in a bundle, mak
ing n slip-knot in the other end of the
rope, which he placed around his neck.
Before he had gone far the bundle slip

In this man's fate we see an example
that should be a warning to all wood
stealers. Reform ere it be too late.
The Iaondon Saturday Review declares

Fusst. At a recent trial in San
Francisco, involving the validity of the
anti-Chinese basket ordinance, on argu
ment of the -demurrer filed by counsel fur
-defense, the law was quoted, which
reads as follows ; "And no person shall
carry a basket or baskets upon any side
walk suspended upon or attached to poles,
cross or upon the shoulders." Counsel
argued that his Chinaman had not been
carrying ?a sidewalk suspended upon or
attached to poles ; " that although he
was a hard-working Chinaman, he never
wndertook to carry a sidewalk ! The
Jadge, seeing the point, took the ques
tion under advisement. '
COOSE RIVER
Is navigable about ten miles. The
"North" and "South Forks" unite about
five miles from its junction with the Biy,
and each fork is navigable for about five
miles. The main river, and each fork, is
walled in with high, precipitous moun
tains. Ihe sou of the "bottoms" is very
rich, but the bottoms are very narrow
not being more than half a mile wide in
the widest places ; and, in many instan
ces, the mountains several of them solid
granite come to the water's edge. The
river b very crooked, and in its bends
and narrow bottoms are many nice - little
farms. But farming here is very differ
ent frorr farming in the Willamette val
ley. The largest farms here consist of
about twenty acres of tillable land some
consist of five or six acres. The princi
pal products are gaiden vegetables and
apples. There are some as fine orchards
as I ever saw in th6 Willamette. Some
oats are raised, for hay, and a little wheat,
for chicken feed. All the flour that is
used here come from San Francisco, as
there is no flouring mill in th'u part of the
country. No wagons are used on the
farms. In fact there arc but two or three
wagons on the river, and not more than
that number of farms on which they
could be used to advantage. Previous
to last Sept. the fanners had to trans
port their produce to market in open
boats, which was very laborious and, at
times, dangerous. Two little steamers are
now making regular trips, twice a week,
up the river. Some apples are shipped
to San Francisco, but a ready market is
found for most of the produce, at the
towns and coal mines on the bay. Land
on the river is valued at from fifteen to
twenty dollars per acre.
The weather is still remarkably pleas
ant, the thermometer ransriuz from 45
to 50, and very little rain. Frogs keep
up their croaking, and flies and gnats,
though not as abundant as in the sum
mer, are yet in sufficient quantities to
make their presence known.
There is some excitement about the
"tt:itninu" on the Columbia river; and
oue of our wealthiest men talks of mov
ing his business to that place about the
first of next March. At any rate he will
visit it at that time to sec what he can
do.
. In my other communication, the place
left blank should have been filled with
fifteen thousand, as that is the number of
feet our mills cut per day.

A Democratic paper of this coast says
that "nothing is clearer in the future"
than the defeat of Grant in the Republi

Henry Wilson to be the coming man. It
gives us great pain to republish this opin
ion, because Grant has still "quite a few"
sdnurem left in the country, to whom the

appreciation of our duty as a public journ

Editor Register: We have had a
very pretty Winter so far, the ground
being dry and dusty, and we have only
had one week's snow, and one day's rain
since last November. Think of that
when you are wading around in the mud,
and weep.
They have been having lively times in
Ochoco this winter three births and
one death in one day the death, howev
er, was a dog that ' had swallowed some
strychnine. A big scare, also, occurred
there oce Sabbath, after church. One
man concluded he would like to fight,
and raised quite a rumpus, which caused"
him a trip to town in the company of the
Sheriff, at a cost of no inconsiderable
amount of cash.
At Willow Creek they are not so
much on the fight, but are building
houses, making fence and plowing. They
will raise several thousands of bushels of
oats, if the next should be a favorable
season. Everything in the shape of a
farm is taken up. There is a Urge
amount of stock in the Willow, Creek
country, with but little preparation for
feeding it. But, so far, stock has done
well, and the chanees now are that but

A proposition is on foot to annex Utah

Telegraphic Summary.
Washington, Feb. 6. On motion of
Stewart, the Senate took up the bill to
define and protect the rights of miners
and encourage the development of the
mines which was amended at the sugges
tion of Casserly and then passed. It
provides facilities for obtaining patents
to mining lands, and nins simply to
facilitate mining litigation and enable
parties locating to take up a certain
amount 01 tana on eacn side ot mining
claims for lumbering, milling and other
purposes.
The motiou of Williams, to take up the
claim for extra services for carrying the
mails to Utah aud Oregon, involving
over $1,000,000, gave rise to discussion,
in which was urged the necessity for
greater vigilance in private legislation in
view ot the extent to which the Uevern-
rcent has been imposed upon in the
Chorpening claim. The bill was finally
taken up and recommitted to the Com
mittee on Post Offices.
San Diego, Febaary 7. The Tucson
(Arizona) Citizen has the following:
A terrible state of affairs exist through
out the Territory, in the face of opposite
representations. The Apaches are mul
tiplying their acts of theft and murder.
Within the past two weeks they have
captured a train, killed one man and
wounded several others. Another train,
between Phoenix and Wickenburg, was
attacked and a man named George Kane
killed and eighteen mules driven off".
TuIIy, Ochoa & Co.'s train was surprised
ten miles south of Tucson and- one man
killed and all the stock stolen. The mail
coach, on its last downward trip, was at
tacked near Phoenix, in the vicinity of
Fubae, and one man named Joe King was
shot and mortally wounded and a number
of horses run off. At Florence, thirty.
three mules and one hundred head of
cattle were stolen. General demoraliza
tion among the farmers. No one feels
safe. Many are abandoning their prop
erty and fleeing from the Territory, glad
to escape with their lives. Representa
tives from all parts of the Territory are
at Tucson for the purpose of dev
means of protection from the savages.
An order has been received for the
transfer of six companies of cavalry from
Arizona to undisturbed Washington
Territory.
. New York, February 7. A train

Versailles, Feb. 5. A special cor
respondent, who has been in Paris since
the investment, came out to-day and
returned to night. He says that the
Commandant of Montroge has committed
suicide. The delivery of amis has com
menced at Sevran, and is proceeding
rapidly in consequence of the convention
providing for the delivery of the amis
before rcvictualling Paris. The Pari
sians are under the impression that the
Prussian troops will not enter Paris.
They are still ignorant of the terms of
capitulation, as it is believed that the
guns in the forts will not be taken by the
enemy. 1 he prices ol provisions had
not yet been lowered. Of 100,000
horses originally in Paris, 06,000,. have
been killed for food.

Married In Fun.
The Albany Journal tells this story :
For some time past there has been in
existence in this city a sort of society or
club, composed of ladies and gentlemen,
and formed for the cultivation of their
histrionic tastes, and to prepare them
selves for a life of future usefulness upon
the dramatic stage, as well as for social
enjoyment. The rooms in which they
massacre Shakspeare and tear Dumas to
pieces are situated on State street, in the
heart of the business portion thereof, and
the unusual sounds incident to high
tragedy emanating therefrom have no
doubt often attracted the attention of the
passer-by. But these rooms, the scene
of so many mock representations, beheld
something a few evenings since far differ
ent from anvthinz ever before enacted
within their walls no less than
A COMEDY IN REAL LIFE
On that certain evening the members
of the club had assembled as usual, but
on consideration ot it being the holiday
season, a motion to dispense with the dra
matic exercises, and betake themselves to
various methods of social enjoyment, met
with much favor, and was unanimously
adopted. For a time the minutes flew
merrily by in the various games usually
indulged in at social parties. These,
however, soon became monotonous, and
a number of feminine and masculine
heads might have been seen in close
proximity devising some new mode of
entertainmejit. Their ready wits were
for a time unable to discover anything
which would serve to amuse, until at last
a young lady, her bright eyes brimming
over with merriment and mischief, pro
posed A MOCK MARRIAGE,
"Just for fun, you know." This propo
sition was eagerly seconded by another
bewitching damsel, and it seemed impos
sible that either of them had any ulterior
object in view, the new divertisement was
agreed to by all. Preparations were im
mediately made for having the interest
ing ceremony performed with all due
solemnity. A young law student volun
teered to act in the capacity of officiat
ing clergyman, while two other well
known young men gladly agreed to accept
the duty of going through the formula
with the young ladies aforesaid. All
things being in readiness, the two young
couple were joined together, strictly in
accordance witn the text of the service,
and
SOLEMNLY PRONOUNCED MAN AND WIFE,
Amid the delighted laughter of - those
who acted as spectators at the success of
the plan. Many were the jokes the
newly-wedded were made victims of, and
which were hearti ly enjoyed by the young
husbands themselves. All this wan well
enough so far, and continued so until the
time arrived for separating. The hus
bands had donned their coats and hats,
preparatory to their departure, and had
already bade the rest good night. But
at this juncture a change cauic over the
spirit of their fun. The young wives
were not going to allow their new-made
lords to leave them in such a cruel, un
husbandlike manner, and
INSISTED ON TIIE1R R.IUIIT AS WIVES
Being given them, claiming the marriage
was just as legal and lawful as though
cemented by a real minister, inasmuch as
each of them made a public acknowledg
ment to take each other "for better or
worse" before witnesses. The youug
gentlemen were completely nonplussed
by this unexpected termination of the
evening's enjoyment ; but of course flat
ly refused to consider themselves bound
by the farcical service performed. In
this interesting state the affair now stands
and will no doubt, if the young ladies
persist in their determination, give some
of our lawyers work to do.
A correspondent of the New York
Herald, who was present in Jefferson
City on the - occasion of Gen. Blair's
election to the United States Senate,

Sacramento Bee.
Frank Ashneaur, of the Ilalfway
House, on tr e Siitterville river road, came
to this office yesterday for the purpose of
publishing a card in relation to Stephen
Baldwin, who, Ashneaur says, has taken
his wife from him aud is living with her.
We advised him against this course, as it
was the last thing that any man should
do to thus bring his family troubles be
fore the public and forever disgrace him
self and them. He said that Baldwin
threatened to shoot him, and that the
probability was that one of them would
soon be killed. He left, however, tak
ing our advice. This morning he came
back and told us that Baldwin rode up
to his house (at the junction of the Siit
terville graveyard road with the river
near the old saw mill) at dusk last even
ing, and asked if Ashneaur lived there,
and dared him to show his face. Ash
neaur opened the door, and at once Bald
win beiiun to fire at him with a pistol.
The first ball cut through his clothes near
his skin, but did no damage, and then
Ashneaur. shut the door, telling lialdwin
not to murder his boys, two of whom
were in the house, but Baldwin paid no
attention to him, and kept firing away
until ho had fired four times, without,
however, hurting any one. Ashneaur
came into town this noon to procure a
warrant for his arrest Ashneaur says
that for seven years Baldwin has been
after his daughter, and that he (Ash
neaur) told her to marry him if she liked
him, but she retused, and at last uaia
win took away his wife by making her
believe that he was worth $40,000, Frank
says he is not worth 40,000 cents. She
is a good old woman, but foolish, and
Ashneaur does not like to part with her
thus. He says he has been advised to
kill Baldwin, but that he does not like to
kill any one, no matter how bad he may
be, but he desires now that he shall not
be allowed to kill him.

A Growler. A rich Boston ian who
is in the Lenox jail, to serve five years
in default of paying a fine of S200.000
for defrauding the Government, is just
now distinguishing himself. At the time
he was sentenced, the Court humanely
allowed him to select his prison from
among any in the State of Massachusetts.
He selected Lenox. The athorities now
propose to remove the jail to Pittsfield,
and he insists that there is no power to
compel him to be imprisooed there, or in
any other place than Lenox, to which his
sentence consigned him. The case had

Guernsey (Ohio) Time, that ever. occur

in which a man by the name of Dutton
killed his own child, an infant daughter.
From the statement made it appears that
Mr. Dutton bad been out coon-huntinj
the nisht on which this melancholy oe.
currence took place, and, coming home
late at night, tired and weary, retired to
rest, and tell into a restless, uneasy slum
ber, and dreamed that he had caught a
coon and killed it by striking it against a
tree. His wife was awakened by his
killing, as ho supposed, the coon, and
on observing bis strange actions, and be
holding the child in his Viands, raised a
frightful scream, which awakened him
from his slecD and revealed to them tbe
fact that he had killed his own child by
beating it to death against the bed-post,
killinz it almost instantly. This sad case
in without a parallel, and is the most

Tueir peculiar sweetness of tone in tbe treble ,
(as enmparvd to other Pianos with tbe ordinary
metal agraffe arrangement ) is so striking that 1
bare had pupils remark, while takiogtheirlesons,
that although tbey had at home what they sup
posed to be one of the best makes of Pianos, still
tbe treble was very wirey toned compared with the
"ARION."
What makes them still more desirable is their
uniform volume of tono, which enables an Artist to
perform a composition in its true character.
In total, I can conscientiously endorse all that is
claimed by the Arion Piano - Forte Company for
tbeir superb iustrumcnts, as I cousider them su
perior to any other make
t oncratuiating you upon tne great success yon
I are obtained iu the manufacture of so perfect an
instrument, I remain yours.

Messrs. J. N. HARRIS CO. Gents t About
on year ago I took a eold which settled on my
lungs. A violent cough wea the consequence,
which increased with severity. I expectorated
large quantities of phlegm and matter. During
the last winter I became so much reduced that I
was confined to my bed. The disease was attend,
ed with eold chills and night-sweats. A diarrhoea
set in. My friends thought I was in the last
stages of consumption, and could not possibly get
well. I was recommended to try
Allen's Lung IJaltsivnx
The formula was given to me, which induced me
to givo it a trial, and I will only add that my
cough Is entirely cured, and I am now able to at
