Retcisnet. Rev. Isaiah Wilson and wife left us for their home In Eugene City yesterday, after a pleasant and profitable visit of nearly two weeks. During his visit to this city, BixC Wilson has done a noble work for his Lord and Master in tlie revival meetings held at the M.E. Church. Bro. Wilson and wife carry with tliem the earnest wishes of many friends in this city for their future health and prosperity. The members of Linn Engine Company will probably not appear in uniform on the 22d, as tliere lias not been time enough since tlie arrival of material to manufac ture seventy uniforms. However we sup pose a desperate effort will be made, and its just possible the boys may be able to get their shirts made in time. We hope so, at any rate for without the uniforms it won't look much like a fireman's blow out. Mr. Win. Dmnars, telegraph operator in this city for a year past, leaves us to morrow for New Tacoma, W. T. Bill is a good quiet boy, and we wish liiru well in his new home. Religious. Revival meetings have been held each afternoon and evening during the week at the SI. E. Church. There seems to be no abatement in interest, and tlie attendance is good. 31 lit. Beach lias sold his line - two-story building 011 First street to .Wm. C. Twee- dale and motlier, for $2,500.

From our correspondent at Halsey we have the following, under date of February 17th ; Mr- Z. Pollard, and old and respected citi zen, who was born on the first day of the present century and Is consequently over seventy-six years old, was walking up the railroad track yesterday, in company with a little grandson some ten or twelve years old, apparently in a deep study, when the regular train arrived at the -depot. Mr. Pollard was about one lumdrcd yards lrom the depot at the time, and all at once seem ed to realize that he was in danger. Tlie sense of danger was too much for his ner vous system, aud he fell forward on his face on the track as helpless as an infant. His little grandson lilted and pulled with all his might to get his graudiather off the track out of danger, but was unable to move him, wlien, fortunately, Messrs. K. Hays and J. Irvine, who Ifapjiened to lie near bj saw the imminent danger ot the old gentle man, and promptly went to his rescue, assisting him to to the depot. If the occur rence had taken place any wliere else almost he doubtless would have been killed. As it was he was almost frightened to death. Gkeeniioicn The other day Mr. Frank Woods who liad just returned from his mines at Greenhorn on the Santiam, spent a few moments in our sanctum. Sir. Woos dreports the traveling very bad mud and water till you can't rest between this city and the mines, lie reports tliat a good deal of work will have to be done before work can be resumed. Tlie ditch or flume carrying water to tlie mines has given way in several places, and will have to be rebuilt. He left parties at work cut ting timber and hauling brush to strength en me mime anu 10 nmiu a largo reservoir to hold water for piping and working the claims. He is sanguine that a good sea son's work will be done, and th it the dirt washed out will pay good to fair wages. It is a hydraulic claim, and if it lwiys the coming season, other parties will doubtless take up and improve claims on the Santi am, that give equally as good indications of pay dirt" as does theGrecnhorti. We hope tlie Greenhorn may pan out better tlian even its owners anticipate. Aiany a man lives with a woman halt a life-time without ever suspect ing tliat the wife of his bosom has really forgotten more than lie ever knew. Many a carpet knight, who plumes himself upon his wonderful skill in smashing hearts, is be ing mentally measured and intellectually turned inside out by the smiling girls wliom he thinks he Is captivating. Many a veteran swell who pulls 011 his gloves to depart, feeling proudly conscious of hav ing made a profound impression upon the susceptible soul of the belle who has en dured him for an evening, would be won derfully enlightened, if not edified, could he hear the sigh of relief which escaped her lips when tlie clang of the door announced his departure. Heavy Weatiieh. Tlie telegraph the first of the week reported severe snow storms in Northern California. Seven feet of snow was reported in Trinity valley, and 011 Scott's mountain the snow is said to be up to the top of the telegraph poles. In Strawberry valley the snow. is reported to be eight feet deep. Xo mails over the mountains last week. Parties are busily engaged clearing off the snow to enable the reastablishmeiit of travel. Shook LTr. According to our friend Frank Woods, who spent two weeks at the Greenhorn mines on the Santiam, on the morning of tlie 8th inst.,' tour distinct earthquake shocks were felt in the mount ains. 1 he shocks were some minutes apart, were not strong enough to rend tlie mountains, but indicated tlie presence of a young earthquake. Chicken Thieves. It is reported to us that a few nights since a number of chick ens were stolen from Slart. Pavne's. 011 First street. About the same time three dozen chickens were nipped from Lui Slil ler. This would seem to indicate that some one is doing a fowl business on a pret ty extensive scale. , Found. On Monday Sir. Milt. Hale left at this office a neat little bible, which he picked up somewhere on the road. On the fly-leaf is written "Mary N. Mat toon's Book; A mothers farewell gift. Bridge water, O., Sept., 1800.

Itmionnl Medication. Medication is only successful wlien it is rational, and it Is rational only when it be gins at the beginning. In other words to cure a malady, its cause must be removed. Weakness eitlier general or local, is tlie origin of the great majoiity of, diseases. Reinforee the vital energies. regUlate diges tion and secretion, by strengthening the organs which perform those all-important functions and dyspepsia, constipation kid ney and bladder complaints, uterine diffi culties, impure circulation v and the thou sand and one ailments which are the con sequences of debility, are completely, and in most cases permanently, removed. The best, safest and most agreeable tonic and alternative that can be employed for this purpose is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. The experience of twenty-five years dur ing which time it has outlived perhaps ten times that number of ephemeral prepara tions which have entered into competition with it, has proved it to be uncqualed as a remedy for all disorders accompanied by or proceeding from weakness. feb.

Lessons of faith and honor and purity and charity exhale with tlie morning dew. Every sunrise is the poem and every sun set the peroration of a noble discourse from God to his children. The man who feels with, and suffers with, and smiles with nature, to whom every flower ami ever' grain of sand is a thought of God, ami every leaf a note In a continuous coro nation song, has an ever-increasing resource ironi which 10 uraw as a wise lover nnu leader of souls.

There Is no doubt that it Is one of the mast common of female mala dies one of tlie most painful and difficult of treatment. The growing prevalence of neuralgia may to an extent be referred to tlie effects of cold upon tlie terminal branch es of tlie nerves distributed to the skin ; and the reason why men are less subject to it tlian women, may to a greater extent be explained by the much greater protection afforded by tlie mode in which the former cover tlieir heads when they are in the open air. A man who admitted he played tlie ac cordeou fell into the hands of the court this morning, yet, for some inexplicable reason, the Judge allowed the opportunity to slip through his fingers, and only gave him thirty days. There Is such a thing as trying the temper ot the people too far. The Peck mine at Prescott, Arizona, has struck a solid vein of ore one foot thick, which assays at the rate of $7,527 to the ton. Five assays of ore from one shaft in tlie Evening Star mine averaged 91,440 a ton, the highest being about S3, 000 and the lowest $8:11. A few days ago Sirs. Wm.
