OFFICIAL CITY PAPER. ALBANY, FRIDAY, FEB. IS, St-ttu K-iiillirii eotral "onuimw. The State Kcpub'icJM" Central Com mittee convened in Portland at one o'clock 1. M. of Wednesday. Messrs. W. II. OJoll, J. W. Watts and J. N. l)oljh were npimted a committee to ! prepare a call tor a liepnblicaii Suite Convention, which they did, and the report was adopted. We haven't room for the entire proceedings this week, but will give them in our next issue. The State Convention is to meet in 1'ortland on Wednasday, May 3d, 187G, at 11 o'c'ock a. m., to select six del egates to the National Republican Gon ventioii, candidates for Judges of the Supremo Court in the sccoud, third and fifth judicial districts, tor propecut iug attorneys for the several district, three presidential electors, a candidate lor Representative in Congress, etc. It was recommended that primary and cennty conventions bo held as follows: Primaries on Wednesday, April 19th; county conventions on Wednesday, April 26lh. In the apportionment of delegates, Linn county is given ten del egates. IM5TT BE AIABXU). Our Democratic cotemporaries liave, thus early in the season, commenced tlio cry of "oorrnption, corruption !" 4-A good round sum of corruption money is on Its way hero from Washington," say the Democratic journals ; "beware! beware!' Ben Uolladay still troubles these poor ink slingers dreams, while the announcement tliat ex-Senator Williams is to visit Oregon soon, throws the whole ''kit and bilm " into spasms. This charge thata corruption fund Is on its way from Washington, to be expended among Democrats for the benefit of Republicans, is the same old cliarge that lias been wrung in our ears' on the eve of ev ery election for the hist decade, tlio idea seeming to be that by its continued iteration tley might pcrliaps be able to convince tliciuselves that there was some truth in it. We predict, however, tliat no matter how mub, or how loud and long continued, the cry . of "coi ruptiou' from Democratic sources, not a dollar will our Democratic friends succeed in obtaining from or through Republican cliannels during the coming campaign, to induce tliem to join tlie Re publican party, the great party ot progress, till. HI 1 , J ...... - - Union. The Republican party has a large majority in tlie Stafe of Oregon, and there is no call for purcliasing .my of tliese poor devils wlio seem so anxious and ex press so much alarm ; tJjerefore we advise tliem to alay their fears, look elsewhere tor stamps to secure whisky and otlier Demo cratic luxuries with which to sustain tlieir shattered nerves during the coming fight. WE WAVT A RAILROAD. . ' Almost the first question propounded by the new comer is "why don't you build a railroad front some point in the State to some point on tlie Central Pacific?" And then tliey tell us wliat we know all the time, if you had a railroad connecting the Central Pacific, so tliat people could reach Oregon without the ocean part of the trip, your State would fill up with a desirable population almost before you knew it. They would flock to Oregon by tens of thousands ; every train would be loaded, nd soon. Instead of a paltry hundred thou sand, Oregon would contain a lialf million of people. Thousands of people are deterr ed from coming to Oregon through a dread of the six hundred miles ot ocean voyage. Every effort should be put forth to build a railroad connecting us with the populous East. The effect of such an enterprise would indeed be magical ; few have an ade quate idea of the' wealth that would flow into Oregon in ofie ' uninterrupted stream, oitening up at once our1 vast resources, and peopling our valleys and dales with an en terprising and liappy people. Without a railroad our progress will be slow, tlie cream of the emigration remaining in Cal ifornia rather tlian trust themselves to tlie dangers and inconvenience of tlie ocean voyage. Build tlie rail soad and In a few years at most Albany would be a vast and wealthy city, it not tlie first, the" second city in population and wealth on tlie North ern Pacific. Let us have tlie railroad. X okdford, in a recent letter to the New York Herald, says that more than 24,000, whites and blacks, have removed from Georgia, during Use past five years. The next five years will witness a larger exodus, unless Democracy in that State extends justice to the laboring classes the poor whites and blacker Georgia 1ms every thing to make of herself a grand manu facturing centre. But she will grow less prosperous every year, unless she adopts a more generous and humane policy toward her working men. , Says the Bangor Whig, speaking of Blaine as the Republican candidate tor tha Presidency : "As Blaine goes, so goes tlie Union. With such a leader, accomplished, eloquent, sagacious and intrepid, the Re publican party of the Union will make the Centennial campaign ring with a jubilee of enthusiasm that will sweep over tlie country with irresistible power." ; : President Grant was examined in tho Babcock case on the 11th Inst. V Ills-deposition was taken by Wm. A. Cook, repre aentbis; the . Government, attended by Chief Justice V' "".s and Attorney General rlempc-ct. i : 3 testimony, as a whole, Is sni 1 to 1 5 i '. :.' y in . favor of tho Inno cence of Ecot.k'. . ; ; OI!B XKW VOKIi LKTTF.lt. Nkw York, Jan. 20th, 1S7C. Our N. Y. letter not having reached us until a lew hours before going to press, we are unable to give it entire. The following paragraphs, however, arc full of interest : srniXG FASHIONS. With the mild days about tlie first ot February, the counters fcliow light camljrics and wool goods, for prudent people who take timo by the forelock in matters of dress, Th?y must do so, for in these days it takes, by moderate computation, two weeks for a woman working all the time to make a dress. This is I he allowance by the most skil ful dressmakers, and it not seldom takes that time to do the trimmings alone. For the comfort of ladies who do their own work, I am happy to say that the old style of dress, with .long plain skirt and waist attached to it, will be worn the coming spring Such models arc on display in the windows as leading styles.. The prettiesj, fabric out, is a tine check in black and white, crossed by a single bright color, which gives it a fresh spring-like look, while it is quite modest enough for tlie street. As it comes in soft wool goods, plain woven, both light and durable, and very wide, it will bo a favorite with ladies, as it is sure to bo with men be cause it is so bright and pretty. THE EXD OF AN ACTOR. Poor George Fox, the great pantom imic, now in a lunatic asylum in Stock bridge, Mass., has been pronounced hopelessly insane, and in danger ot of dying any minute. Poor Fox ! He has delighted more people than any man living, and this is his cud ! He labored for the public all his life, and he dies in an asylum, without a dollar, bis family depending tor their subsistence on the charity ot the profession, the memliers of which are generally almost as poor as himself! This is the regular ending of an actor. A miserable, starved life, and death in an alms-house or an asy lum. Edward Eddy, an actor ot as much reputation as Edwin Forrest twenty years ago, was buried last Sun day by the Masons, and at their expense. His family have not a dollar to live on and they are catii.g the bread of charity. It pays better to debauch the people than it does to either amuse or instruct them. The actor dies poor, tho teacher starves on a salary of $600 per year, the author lives in a garret, but the whisky-seller, the gambler, and the keeper ot prostitutes roll in carriages, and are c'.ad in purple and flue linen. The times are never too hrd to support a vice. When limes arc close, men stop their iiewpjiapcrs, but were the times ever so hard as to compel them to quit whisky and tobacco? Not much. . Xo matter what other business languishes, the bars thrive. DEFALCATIONS. Defalcation- are as common as paving-stones. Window ran away from Button with $230,000 ot other people's money, Babbitt's cashier steals $500, 000, and now a young banker absconds with all his customers' money. This last case is a little peculiar. The young man squandered it all upon a woman, but who do you suppose that womau was ? Why his own mother ! She is a very handsome widow, forty, who has a passion for fashionable life. Tlie young man, licr son, is a weak, good fellow, who loves his mother as very few sous do, and can refuse her nothing. When he went into business for himself, she emerged from the humble boarding house where they had lived, and took elegant bouse op-town, and commenced living in the style of wealthy people. She set up a carriage, she had the house full of servants, she gave ele gant entertainments, site bought dia monds, and camel's hair sliawls, and, in short, she lived at a rate that made all her old friends turn green with envy. v The son, alt this time was furnishing bcr with the means for all this extrava gance, knowing that the end was rain, but his mother liked it and he was too weak to say no. She probably knew tliat she was living beyond his means, but the madness was on her, and she could net stop. The end came last week. The young man and his mother sailed for Rotterdam, taking with tliem every dollar that was in the concern and all that could be borrowed, begged or stolen. It is supposed that the abscond ing, like all the rest of it, was the in spiration of the mother, for all who know the young man believe hira to be honest, if left to himself. The loss to depositors will loot up $000,000, and there is as much more owing on. notes on the street. This .vast sum ot money has been spent within five years, and that it was spent there ' can be no dool tor as near as can be ascertain ed, they had mighty little to take away with them. ; The fine house was dismantled, though they had sold quiet ly, all thai they comd without exciting suspicion. Curious easel "Men have been ruined by women, times enough, but who ever heard liufore of that woman's being one's own mother. . ;' nusiNKKS Is looking up a little, and apjiearanccs indicate a permanent improvement. Money is getting pleutier at the West, and tho merchants arc buying a little more frsely. May the improvement continue. Piktko. A Votcl Man Uono ; A day or two since tlie telegraph brought us the news of the death of Rcverdy John son. His d Oil Ih was as sudden as unexpect ed alone, and without a moment's warn ing, he was summoned to meet his God. No one knows how his death was brought about, but the theory of the physician, who examined the body shortly after it was dis covered, is thi;: "Mr. Johnson ' either t tumbled over a piece of coal, or,"" being suiiied with vertigo or incipient symptom? of apoplexy, and striving to save himself moved towards the west, staggering along by tlie northerly side of the executive man sion and at each step his body gaining additional momentum, so ; tliat having readied the door into the basement, he swayed around to the south and iell, ids head striking a sharp corner of the granite base of tlie house, which gave the first wound in the head, Reaching the pave ment of rough cobblestones, a second wound was received in front of the first. At this instant, probably, the bones of tlie nose were fractured, one joint of the second fin ger ot the right 'hand was dislocated. Whether the subsequent struggle may ac count for tlie abrasions on his knees and fingers of tlie left liund, curt be postively asserted. Tlie wounds in the scalp were accompanied with fractures internally. Tlie bones ot tlie cranium' a'id base of the skull also, with a probable rupture of arter ies at tlie base. Death must have resulted instantly." Democratic Convention. The Democratic State Convention is called to meet at Salem, on Wednesday, April 20th, ISTfi. On the receomuieiida tion of tlie Central Committee, the county conventions will probably be called on Sat urday, April loth, at 1 o'clock P. M. During the 'grasliopper' year, the imp utation of Nebraska increased 80,990, while Oregon, that year, only added to her popu lation by emigration about 3,000. Had there been a continuous line of railroad con necting Oregon with tlie East, the tables would have been turned, and Oregon would Iiavc added to her population SO, 000 people. We can have the railroad just as soon as our people wake up to a full realization of the facts in the case. Oregon must build the road. It is useless to wait expecting outside capitalists to build the road tliey can employ their money lor years to come in other and better paying enterprises. If tlie road is to be built, it must lie done by the combined efforts ot our peopleevery man in the State must help. In the House of Commons on the 15tli, Disraeli moved a bill enabling the Queeu of England to take the style and title of Empress of India. PREPARING FOK CKNTKXM.Vl.. The Special Committee appointed by the General Ticket Agent's Association of the United States to arrange and recommend a schedule of Centennial passenger rates, recently held a meeting at Philadelphia and will report to the Association at its special meeting to be lield at Louisville, Ky., this month. Ten out of tlie thirteen members ot the committee vero present, and Western roads were well represented. The Erie road was represented by General Passenger Agent J. N. Abbott, who, in conversation with a New York Tribune reporter lately, said tliat the members ot tlie committee all conceded tliat the amount of travel next year, even in view of the Centennial Exhibition, would depend large ly on tho liberality of the railroads in giv. ing reduced fares and extra accommodation. Before arriving at a decision the interests of each section of the country and of foreign visitors were fully discussed. It was de cided to recommend a reduction of 23 per cent, on present rates for the round trip from all points of the country east of Omaha to Philadelphia or New York. The Union Pacific was not represented in the Conn - mittee, but will probably take part in the action of the Association this month. It is hoped by the representatives of tlie other roads tliat these two roads will find it to tlieir interest to make a similar reduction for the round trip, but as "such an arrange ment would affect almost their entire pass enger traffic, and as tliey have no fears of competition, a reduction on tlieir part would be an act of great liberality. As cheap rates will affect the whole country about equally, and as the West will be an object of as great interest to most Europe ans as tlie Centennial Exhibition itself. It has been decided to recommend a similar reduction ot 29 per cent, on round trips from New York and Philadelphia to allparts ot the West. Tliese tickets wilt be arranged in the form of circular tours, including the great natural features of the country, the principal cities of the interior, tlie Missis sippi Valley, and the South. If tlie Union Pacific comes into tlie arrangement, these tours will probably be extended to all parts of tlie Pacific coast. Tickets will be sold from May 10th to October 31st. They will be good for 30 days only from points east of Omaha, and probably the time will be shortened from points within a day's ride of New York and Philadelphia. It will also be recom mended by the Committee that round tickets from the West be made good, east ward, over one route, and westward over another route. Thus visitors to the Cen tennial can come eastward via : Chicago, Detroit, Niajrara Falls and New York and return by way of Baltimore and Washing ton. Passengers will be allowed to stop over at all -places on the route at pleasure, except wit hiii- a certain distance of New York and Philadelphia, which properly in cludes local travel. In view- of the lact that New York will be made tho headquarters of me great majority or travelers, both domes tic and foreign, who will desire to avoid tlie crowded hotels of Philadelphia, and who will regard the metropolis of the coun try of equal interest with the Exhibition, the difference in farelietween Philadelphia and New York on round trip tickets, east ward or westward, has U-cn fixed at $1 only. The fare from Chicago to Philadel phia and return will be .'12, while from Chicago to New York and return, by way ot Philadelphia, it will be $33. Excursion tickets at reduced rates are already arranged " from-New York and Philadelphia to Niagara Palls, tlie St Law rence and the .-New England States. A very extensive travel is rxpected from Cali fornia. Many of the adventurers of lSi'J. who have never been East since, will find the Centennial a good opportunity for re newing acquaintance with the eastern parts ot the country. The influx ot Australians and Mexicans through San Francisco, will, it is thought, be very large. All tlie lines are building additional pass enger coaches under construction, and will add many sleeping and drawing-room cars. Extra trains will Tie put on each way. Mr. Abbott said lie could not say what the sleeping-car companies would do toward reduc ing the prices of accommodation, but lie thought they ought to m-ike a discount. The four trunk lines will erect an Ameri can tourist ticket office on the Centennial "grounds, to be operated by the -companies m coivxrt. The plan of the building will probably be a model American railway station. It is understood that trains will he run between New York and Philadelphia every 20 reunites during 10 hours of the day, and ample uiy'J't trains will also be furnished. Local rates have not yet been fixed. The trunk line? will have ar.t'ug to do with middlemen, and propose to give the public the benefit of the commission which otherwise would go to agents. Appletim' Jovtrwl says that the condi tion of Turkey will remind the curious of tlio old rhymed prophecy which has dropp ed out ot common recollection. It is said to have been made in 1453 : "In twice two hundred years the Bear The Crescent shall assail, lint If the Cock and Iinll unite, The Bear shall not prevail. "But look! in twice ten years iitfain, Let Islam know aud fesir. The Cross shall wax the Crescent wane, lirovr pnlc and disappear." It will be "twice ten years" next spring from the conclusion of the Crimean War. Messrs. Stark and Isom sliot a few days ago, a female pautlier and her two cubs, near the Departure Bay road. Thrc of tbe harbor booys were carried by tlie ice on tlie Nauaimo river flats on Saturday week. POST OFFICE RKUISTEB. MAIlrfi aukivk: From Ruilroud (north ami sonthl daily at 11.10 1'. x.
