The lecture of Mr. Dufnr. last Wed nesday evening, on the great Centen nial Exposition, was largely attended, and exceedingly interesting. The plan of the Association exists by law of Congress. Under it. Commission ers, one from each State and Territory, were appointed. The stock of this Association is divided into shares of $10 each, $2 down, aud offered to the whole people. The amount required for the Exposition isaboutflO. 000,000. This lias been apportioned among the States and Territories, each being al lowed one hundred days to take up its quota. About 1.356 shares are offered to Oregon, which Mr. Dufur desires the people to take, within the time stipulated, so that the State may be entitled to its full rights aud privileges In the Exposition. The payment of $2 by each subscriber of stock, entitles him to a certificate of stock. The bal ance of the $10 will be collected by the Association at the rate of $2 every three months, if needed. The stock is being largely taken in other States, and judging from the success of the Paris and London Expositions, as a matter of business they pay. We have no doubt our people will take our quota promptly. We liave not space now to present this subject fhrther, but will take occasion to speak of it again .

As soon as Furl got sight of the handsome form of the Marshal, he threw up his part of the tight, and lit out up First street at a 2.17 gait. Our worthy Marsha), finding that lie wasn't in running trim, aud that Furl was about to escape, called to bis Deputy, Win. Brown, who happened to be in sight, to 'go for" Furl. And Brown did go for him, overhauling him after a neat little run of one block. While it last ed It was one of the most exciting races ever got up on First street. Brown runs like a scared wolf. Hon.
