If all are prompt we will not. inconvenience our Democratic tr ends, who wlab to meet at tlie same place two hours Inter. Attend the Primaries Tomor row. Let every Kepublican who can, attend the primaries to-morrow, and aid in selecting goal and reliable men as delegates to tlie County Convention, which meets in this city one week from to-morrow. It is a matter of the gravest Importance to the citizens of Oregon, that a worthy, energetic, so ler. industrious and thoroughly posted gentleman shall occupy the seat in Congress left vacant by the death of the lamented Wilson. Therefore let the best men from each precinct be sent up as delegates that wise counsels may prevail. Hot. Phew! but the weather has lieen in the meltiKg mood of late. Tl.e effort to breathe has been almost too much for perspiring hnmanitv. We don't extend remarks upon the subject. The thermometer has ranged from 90 to 103 degrees in the shade, having reached the latter figures on Saturday last. Phew! CrRCCS. Next Monday is to be the big day, when everybody is expected to lie in the city to see the big balloon go up. and attend the Mg circus. As It will be the only circus here this sea son, all will avail themselves of the opportunity. Albanians never let a circus get away without seeing all if has tn show, am! as this is reported to be the biggest thing that ever raised a tent-pole in these diggings, you can bet it'll catch many a bushel of wheat. Tlor lor the Parisian. Damaged. On Tuesday an engine and tender were backed down the rail road switch that runs along the river iront. to take up box car loaded with flour and shorts at Jas. II. Foster & Co.'s mill. The west end of the track runs up against the Magnolia Mills, where the loaded car stood. The en gine came down at a slashing rate, ran into the loaded car. which in turn was crowded against the mill with such force as to damage t he building consid erably. Both the box car and tender received more or less damage. A little more force, and the w hole train would have leen precipitated into the mill race below. Appreciated. Tlie eihVts being made by the managers ol the Farmer's Union Warehouse at Shedd, to place the grain trade on an indepetidenl basis, so that parties wishing to pur chase will have an inducement to bid on grain, are meeting with a lair de gree of success, notwithstanding the opposition, open or covert, of a large portion of their competitors in Hi., trade. Farmers who appreciate the proposed change at its true value, and desire to consult their own interest, should sustain, with a liberal patron age, this effort to advance their inter ests. Deseutek Caught. On Monday Slic-iff Parker caught and jugged fl deserter from, Camp Harney, name. McCabe. He bad gone to work ot. the Santtam Camd. having sold hi horse.

One of the great wants in the harvest field, is cold, sweet water for drinking pursue. The water, which generally has to he carried ome distance before it reaches the Held, .n piires a mawkish warmth, giving very little satisfaction to the partakers ; thereof. A little trouble, however. ' will enable our fanners to supply j themselves during the harvest with ! nice cold water. When the water is carried in jugs to the fie'd. all that is ' neecessary to insure a cool tlranght of water is to envelope the jug in everal ' folds of coarse cotton or Minn cloths. , kept constantly wet. The philosophy of the matter is. the evaporation of the j moisture in the cloth keeps the vessel . perfectly cool, and ju-t in proportion j ,he evaponition be ta t or slow. If ' tlie Harvest force he large and a barrel ; be used, it is only necessary to Increase j the thickness of the folds of cloth around the barrel. I lie cloth unit be kept wet so that tue evaporation may be constantly going on. What" evcr vessel be used, it should be kept in the shade, hut is better 11 exposed to the air. k The evaporation of ether or other exceedingly volatile substance in a draught i employed as an experi ment in freezing substances in the hot" est weather. Smallpox Scare. On Sunday last report gained wide circulation over the city, that Postmaster Raymond hail the smallpox that )r. Rice, his phy sician, had so stilted ami of course the greatest alarm was manifested by our citizens. Dr. Rice informs us that he never made the statement, directly or indirectly, and that Mr. Raymond's was simply a billions attack. If the party or parties who gave currency to ! the report, flid so for a joke, we would say that it is a very cruel joke, and one likely to prove costly to our city. This fooling with smallpox jokes won't stand pressing, and we warn those who have nothing else liet- I ter on their hands than attempting "smallpox scares," to go remarkably slow, or they may have the tables turned upon them in a way they will not like. Personal. Mr. A. Carothers and j family returned from I'pper Soda the I first of the week, after an absence of nearly two weeks, in the anjoymentot j splendid health. Mrs. If. D. Godley and family have returned from a long stay at Sodaville. j greatly improved by the visit. Martin Luper, Esq., who returned last week from an extended visit to Southern California, comes back to ! stay, better satisfied than ever with hi- Oregon home. j Bob Head and lady were in the city I on Wednesday. Utir old mend, the "young man from Wisconsin," threw himself in sight on Wednesday. Mrs. Cranor and her two children re turned from Yaqnina on Wednesday. The children's health was vastly im proved by the trip Mr. X. Baum started on his annual pilgrimage to 'Frisco on Thursday. Mr. Ol. Tompkins called on Thurs day, fresh from Clatsop Bench. Says its the finest place in the word. Something New. Mr. w. n. Dodd. late of Portland, is now open ing, in the Register Building, a large stock of assorted hardware of the new est and best kinds, which he offer: to the citizens of Albany and vicinity ai fair rates.

We hear of; no sales of new wheat, but we bear i i that 75 and 80c per bushel has been offered by buyers. This is enconr-1 aging to producers, and should prices i go no higher, will prove remumerative. , S kness.

The recent advance iu Wheat in San Francisco, should it prove permanent, augers well for Oregon producers.

Lei the cans- es at work be as they mav. there is no j . I denying the fact that wheat prices ad- j . i . , i i ,. raiiced during the week in San Fran- ctsyo, and that our latest advices show I tliey are firm at the figures mentioned. A favorable omen regarding the sta bility or probable permanency of the recent advance in wheat, is that dour has also been advanced in price, and tin. iL.i lijitilliiii.ili.iti.il 'I'll,. ,..iti i lor Oregon flour is also increasing. IV (j hope the advance in the price of wheat just noted may not only contin ue, bui that the tendency may be up ivard. 0:i the 19th, the outside limit reached in San Francisco was $2 per 100 His, The Bulletin notes the fact that a fanner of Marion county has sold his wheat in Portland, to tat delivered, sicked, by railroad, at thai point, for ihc round stun ol eighty-six cents per bushel net. This is a good round pay. ing figure. Kalpli Geer, of Marion county, har vested one field of wheat, a portion ol which yielded eighty bushels of prune wiieat per acre, and tlie balance of the Held, it was thought, would yield not es than fifty bushels per acre.
