We are re.-y tested to state tliat Prick Pomeroy has been secured by the Board to deliver the Opening Address before the Pinti County Pair at It next annual gather ing. Brick is one of the mo.it noted men in the country, and the announce ment tliat he has been secured will doubtless attract aa unusually large crowd. So mote it be. Houses in Training. Through the politeness of Mr. Wm. Cannon, we iu company with a number of jolly com panions were driven to the Lhm County Agricultural Association's grounds on Thursday morning. A number of im provements, heretofore noticed in the Register as under way, have been completed, aud will add much to the convenience of those who may attend. The addition to the Pavilion, iu our opinion, will not only be a great aud desirable convenience to the officers aud all connected with the Pair, but adds considerably to the looks of the building. Of course at this early day there was nothing in the ".show"' line cxct'plf horses, of which there were twenty-eight, as fine and attractive animals as we liave seen at any Pa il ia the State ; and we were assured that there were still a large nuni!x-r of fine trotters and runners, some of them the most noted on the coast, yet to come, and expected to arrive in a few days to swell the number. I.i this res-wet the Liu:i County Pair of 1S71 will far exceed any previous one, and doubtless e-puil if it dcx-s not eclipse the showing at the State Fair. This is one of the re -u;ts of the liberal premium devised by the Hoard of Directors for this class. If there is as good a showing at the coaling Pair in the other clas-.es as in this, as there is no reason to doubt at the present writing, wc shall certainly witness, not only the largest, but the most important gathering, the last week of the present month, ever wit nessed by our people. We hope to see every branch of industry well repre sented on the occasion, to the cud that ! the Pair may result, as its promoters ('oluuililn Conference Houses FOR nit l-air.

Coming "Pathfinder" and other noted animals of the trottingpersuasion are expected to arrive on the Fair Grounds next week. Business Has been bully'during the week, as we are Informed by our mercliants and business men. . - - L. Halsey, George W. Weidler and Ben Holladay. This Company bought out the P. T. Co. lock, stock aud bar rel, and now have a c-iitiphte niouoo ly of the carrying trade oa the Willa mette and its tributaries. The sucx-e,ss of a community, city or State depends largely oa its .facilities for reaching the markets. If the facilities of com tnu.iicutiou are easy of access, speedy and safe, as well as rea so;i:ib!e in their trallie, the community will flourish ; but if the rates be high, enterprise will be discouraged, aud the prosperity anil productiveness-of the country will be retarded. Judging from the enterprise and good bu-iness sense of the men who have control of this company, whose interests are identified with this State, we do not apprehend the adop tion of a policy of high tariflsby them, that wiil eventuate iu their own loss. Eight up the Streets. Last week we suggested not only the propriety. but the actual demand, for a night watch. We believe the views express ed by ui in the matter met the approv al of ever business man, with out an exception, on First street. So the soon er the Council act In the matter, the sooner will they meet the wants and desires of their constituents. In the mean time another matter has been suggested, and tliat Is the propriety of lighting up, after night, First street. Two or three street lamps for each block would be a matter of small cost, and would be a great convenience to al most every dweller in the city. ' What think our people of the suggestion ? - ; Sunk. We are informed that the trestle-work joining on to the railroad bridge at Harrisburg on this side, suuk three or four feet ou Tuesday last, caus ed by the attempt to run a train loaded with rail up on to the' first pier. : The piling disappeared so suddenly and so deep that the train came withlu an ace of being pitched headlong Into the Wil lamette river."

We hope to arouse our City Fathers to a full sense of the duty they owe the people in the way of a Park. On several occasions heretofore we have pressed this matter upon their attention, aud we again insist tliat the right time to secure the grounds for a City Park, to be Uied in ecm m n by all of our citizens, is the present. Economy suggests the present time, because land can be procured at a much less figure now than hereafter. It will require but a few hundred dollars now to make a neat, tasty and desirable Park, that will be the pride of our citizens and an ornament to our city; but if the matter is staved oft" from year to year, when the demand for such tin improvement becomes so ur gent tliat our City Fathers cannot shut their ears to the cry, then the city will be compelled to pay thousands of doll ars for what might liave been secured, had action been taken at the proper season, for a few hundred. We wish to build up an attractive city, which sliali be known far and wide for its beauty and convenience, and to do this we must make a start iu the right di rection. Give us a City ParK as a starter. - Watctiiman Appointed. At a special meeting of t lie City Council on Thursday night Mr. ; Wm. Riley was appointed night watch, with a salary of $30 per mouth. Our Comicil lias done well in this matter, and deserves tlianks for promptitude. As $30 per month will not pay Mr. Riley to fill the office, tlie business men oa First street will doubtless gladly make up an amount sufficient to amply repay him for doing his duty faithfully and well. Let tlie matter be attended to at once. Wm. Riley Is the right man In the right place. ;: ;-.:".;..'. - 7 Personal.

' Some of tlie Democrats it seems, are beginning to talk about this way : ' If tlie " new departure" is right, and the negro is to continue to vote, then tlie Republican party lias been right all the , time, and we will not vote tlie Demo cratic ticket any more.
