On last Saturday the Legislature trcnt into joint convention ami elected Henry W. Corbett, of Portland, United States Senator for six years from the . 4th of next March. Mr Corbett is a , heavy merchant of Portland ; also, he is a mail contractor. We do not personally know him, but we are assured by those who do that he is a shrewd financier. As . to politics, he has been a Radical. "We have been told that he is a Johnson man ; ' and some have built up high hopes in consequence. But we advise all such not to become unduly elated. The Radical papers all claim that he will be true to Congress; of course he will be against Johnson on all questions of vital moment. AVe hope for the best, but we do not per riit ourselves to build any air-castles. While, however, we believe Corbett j be a supporter of all the Radical measures of Congress, we are nevcrthe . less rather pleased with his election. It , was impossible to elect a Democrat, and if we must have a Radical wc arc glad that it is Corbett instead of our oleagi. 1 nous ex-Governor Gibbs, or our scheming weathercock, Senator Xesmith. Corbett all the while in preference to either Gibbs or Xcsmith. Corbett, however was a bit ter pill to some of Gibbs' friends. When ,Mr. Pyle's name was called, he said : :Mr. President Before casting my .vote in this instance, I feel it my duty to eay a word of explanation. I bow to the will of the majority of those with whom T . . mhsixclytotho will of a factious and un- scrupulous minority fapplausel who have betrayed their friends, beiraved their r.ar ty and betrayed tho.e obligations which man owes to his fellows TRenewed an-' piaue ana waving ot turn dkerc hie is lrom the ladies' gallery But the opposition have relieved me to a great extent of the sore humiliation and pain which I feel, by having placed in nomination J. W. Xes mith. It is not difiicult for me to decide between that man who has been false not only to his party, but also to some cs to his country, and If. W. Corbett. w extent horn i I believe to be a gentleman in every res pect, and a loyal man sound upon those principles wnicn are advocated by the par ty to which I belong, and of which I claim to be an humble member. There fore, Mr. President. I record nry vote for H. W. Corbett." lApplau-:e. - 3Ir. Melvin,when his name was called, said : "Mr. President. I wish to say a word as to my position. I feel it my duty to state to the Convention my reasons fur votin" a3 I do. I have been told that if Mr! Corbett was not elected to-day, James W. Nesmith would be. In choosing between these men I do cot hesitate to name Mr. Corbett. i believe his personal character is above reproach, and I have faith that he will stand firmly by his colleague in the L . S. Senate. I am not personally acquainted with Mr. Corbett, but I con fide in the representations of those who are. We have been compelled to yield up our candidate by traitors in our camp not only traitors to their party, but men who are even lower down Mr. White I call the gentleman to order. He is dealing in personalities. Mr. Melvin I will say no more. I cast my vote for 3Ir. Corbett. 3Ir. Donnell said : "Before this vote is announced I de sire to say one word. I wish to set my self right before the people whom I rep resent, and before the people of Oregon. As is well known, Addison C. Gibbs, by the laws and usages of all parties since the first convention assembled in the Uni ted States, was justly and lawfully the choice of the Union party of the State for U. S. Senator at this time. I wish to say that in voting as I now do, with the men who have defeated our reg ular nominee, I want it distinctly under stood that they and myself have no sym pathies in common whatever. They have covered themselves all over with shame, infamy and disgrace, and they may make the most of their temporary triumph." The final vote was as follows : Mr. Cox I withdraw the name of J. Whiteaker, and put in nomination J. W. Nesmith. The ballot resulted as follows : For II. -W. Corbett Messrs. Bayley, Brown, Cartwright, Cranston, Dolph, Donnell, Hinsdale, Johnson, Powell, Pal mer, Pyle, Sterns, Watson, Cole, Davis, Day, Garlick. Gairet, G ingles, Ilermon, Hinman,Lamson, Laughlin, Locey, Lock hart, Melvin, Xicklin. OIney, Parris, Ro land, Rosenheim, Starkweather, Stouffer, Upton, White, Witzel, Mr. Speaker and Mr. President 38. For J. W. Nesmith. Messrs, Dodge, Henderthott, Humason and Loring 4. For J. S. Smith, Messrs. Cyrus, Ford, Ison, Jeffries, Baird, Cochran, Dempsey, Hail, 3Ioore, South, Whitaker, Withers and Worth 14. For P. P. Prim Avery, Caldwell, Mill er, Cox, Foundray, Ross and Welles 7. For J. K. Kelly Huston, nelni, Hind mar, Knisely and McCoy V5. 3Ir. Genr voted for John Wliiteaker." We ara told by an eye-witness that when the result was announced it gcemed to fall like a wet blanket upon everybody pres ent. There was no applause of any kind whatever, neither in the galleries nor elsewhere. We suppose, however, Cor bett's friands did subsequently rally, for we are informed ho ordered a thousand dollar champagne supper ; and if this did not raise their spirits we know not what will By the way, is it right for the "God-and-morality" party to indulge in such excesses 1 They claim to possess all the virtue, and morality, and temperance extant.

THE IiINN COUNTY FA I It. Tho annual Agricultural Exhibition of Linn county camo off this week, accord ing to announcement, at tho Albany Fair Grounds. The grounds aro handsomely situated and enclosed with a good, sub stantial fence. Inside, tho regulations arc excellent ; there being stables, wells, feed barns and boarding houses, and all that is necessary to accommodate and make comfortable thoso who bring stock or ar ticles for exhibition, as well as thoso who seek only to pass a day or two in recrea tion and amusement. The raco cour.se- which seems to attract rather moro than a due share of attention is new, and ol courso open to improvement; neverthe less, it answered every purpose. The first two days it was covered with dust, very deep, which served to try tho bottom as well as tho speed of the animals. Tucs day, tho FIRST DAY was given, for tho most part, to prepara tion. There was fully as largo an attend ance as we expected to see. Tho scene presented, at an early hour in tho morn ing, busy life and animation, there being about eighty horses, a number of hogs and sheep, and several head of cattle en tered for premiums. All day long the clerks were busily engaged receiving and registering eutries, and when night closed in the first day was pronounced by all as an augur of success for the remaining three. True, the display of articles in the pavillion was rather meagre, but pre sented fully as good an appearance as was anticipated so soon iu the season. Many persons from the country came in during the day to learn what facilities there were fur preserving and caring for Cliaracier lo uelcr PcrsoQS irom Dru, IDo arl,c'es of value, for fear of their waste or destruction. The opening address was omitted, in consequence of tho illness of Judge Thayer, a circumstance vey much to be regretted, since the Judge is something of a practical agriculturist, and would perhaps have said niauy things useful aud interesting to farmers and stock raisers. Iu the stock line (except horses) there was a marked deficiency, both in the number and quality, otthe animals on exhibition. Of sheep, the French Merino variety, owned by Dr. Alexander and the Parish brothers, were very noticeable. They o urn the celebrated buck which took the premium at the State Fair last fall. He was shorn laat October then aged 4 years ; the fleece of 3 years weighed 78 pounds. The wool is of fine texture. Some of his stock was there, showing fur itself. The Spanish Merino breed, owned by Messrs. 31 into & Davidson, was also represented, and by what is acknowledged as fair representatives of that far-famed variety. The pacing race between the grey horse, owned by 3Ir. Gird of Albany, and the brown horse, by 31 r. Kyger of Cor vallis, was won by Kyger's horse; time, 1st heat, 2:32; 2d heat, 3:03 SECOND DAY. At 10 o'clock the race came off between "Red Jacket", owned by Geo. Hughes, and "Stonewall Jackson," by Thomas Hardy single dash of one mile and won by "Red Jacket" iu 1:55. In the afternoon the parade of all ani mals on exhibition brought out a vast number of splendid horses, of all grades and ages. In looking over the parade ground one would almost conclude that it wa3 not an agricultural and general stock exhibition, but a real horse fair. Pacing, running, trotting, roadsters and draft horses of all colors, shapes and sizes were there. We do not recollect to have seen a better hor?e exhibition in a long time than that of Wednesday. There were also some good mule3 on exhibition, and one of their ancestors, as we inferred, judging from his ears. He was by no means a bad specimen but his music sounded rather harsh and discordant. At 2 o'clock the trotting race came off between Iladley's bay horse and 3Iar shall's grey mare. Heats best two in three won by the bay horse. Time, 1st heat, 3:04 and 3,08 ; 2d heat 3:07 and 3:11. At 3 o'clock the best span (trotting) was announced, and 3Iessrs. Rudd, Welsh and Smith entered for the contest, which was won by Rudd in 2:46. At -4 o'clock in mile heat, 2 year olds, entries were made by 3Iessrs. Hackleman, Wallace and Rudd, and won by Wallace in 4:47 ; Rudd's colt making it in 4:48. third Day, According to programme the Superin tendents and judges of the different classes met at the pavillion and received from the clerk a list of the articles enter ed in each class, and proceeded to exam ine the same. They were kept very busy for two hours, and it required their ut most exertions to get through in their al lotted time. It is impossible for us at this time to enumerate or speak of the arti cles in detail, which were so skillfully and tastefully arranged in the pavillion, presenting quite a fine display in the main. Here were flowers, fruits and veg etables, plain and ornamental needlework, fancy goods, sewing and washing ma chines, articles of manufacture and in genuity, etc., etc. At 10 i o'clock a. m. Kyger's horse "John Brownwon the race over Rudd's sorrel single dash of one mile in 2:55. At 11 o'clock sweepstakes (running), milo hcat. best two in three, "Jeff. Davis," owned by Hugh Fields, won tho contest over "Pluck," by John Good, in 1:49, best heat. At 1 o'clock p. m. Gird's horso won a pacing race; milo dash, in 2:59. At 2 o'clock "Kmigrant," owned by Wcfoh, made tho 4 milo heat in 13:10, wiuning time. At 4 o'clock a purso of 815 was offered to tho winner of a foot-race, and was awarded to Barnes Priuc, who made tho mile heat in 5:32. FOURTH DAY. Other duties prevented us from being on tho Grounds but a short timo to-day, so that our notes aro necessarily very "scant." At 10J o'clock a. m.. iri a five mile milo "stretch," Gird's team of roadsters won tho raco over Rudd's and Hender- a . a . son s, but wo wcro uuablo get tho timo made. At 2 o'clock p. m. in a raco of best 2 in 3, iu which five heats wcro made, the judges declared 31 r. Patton's bay marc, "31aid of tho .Mill," winner, over 31 r. Welsh's bare horse. This was a very dose and spirited match. Tho timo made in tho last heat was 3:1 1. The diploma for the best female cqui.v trian was awarded to 31 rs. Martin Lupcr. REMARKS. Our reports of yesterday and to-day, as will be seen, aro very meagre, and we greatly regret that we aro not ablo to give them more fully. There were many animals and articles worthy of note that have been entirely omitted in this report,! but our inability to obtain the names of either thcanihials or their owners coupled with our limited time for attendmjr and ress of other duties, will, we trust, be a fitting excuse. The entire list of trcini- urns, as awarded by the several commit tees, will appear in our columns in ashort time. We improve this opportunity to ex press, in behalf of the attaches of the Democrat office, our acknowledgments to the officers, individually and collec tively, of the Linn County Agricultu ral Association, for their kind favors, gentlemanly treatment and courteous at tention during the Fair. Wo observed that. the judges were impartial in their decisions, giving an equal 4show" to all who cutered stock for premiums, and dis playing leuiency and good will to all com tetitors. The Marshall aud assistant were indefatigable and untiriug iu their efforts to preserve order and harmony on the Grounds aud keep the track clear of obstacles during the races. The clerks were polite and affable to all, and paid strick attention to registering entries while the superintendent in charge of the pavilion devoted their time to ar ranging and caring for ?uch articles as were deposited in the building. That the Fair was a success, almost every one who attended will bear witness; that it has established the Linn County Agricultural Association upon a living and permanent basis, no one doubts. Amusement. Among the amuse ments during this week in the city and on the Fair Ground, wc noticed Mcs.r. Lee & R viand's Circus and "educated pig"fchow; Prof. Hughes' fire-works ; a balloon ascension by Prof. Buhdcy; a portable (on a wheelbarrow) panorama, and an itinerant "grind orgauer" all of which appeared to drive a staving business. We were kindly furnished complimentary tickets to the circus and fire-works, for which the managers of each institution will accept our "most politest" bow. A Runaway. A span of horses at tached to a wagon ran away in town last Wednesday, leaving the wagon-box in one place, double-trees in another, part of the harness still farther on, and at last account the horses had run all away to tail, and it was flying through the air in the neigh borhood of Lebanon. New Store. 3Iesers. J. Barrows & Co. have received their goods and opened out their store in their new fire-proof brick building. They have an extensive assortment of goods, and great taste and skill have evidently been displayed in their selection. Read their card in this paper. Auctioneer. 31 r. Wm. Lister an nounces in another column that he has procured license to auctioneer in any part of the State, and solicits business in his line. We ask for him a liberal support, assuring all that he is capable and trust worthy. Firemen's Benefit. The managers of the Cosmopolitan Circus have kindly tendered a benefit performance for the Albany Fire Company, to take place this evening in this city, under their canvas. Let there be a general attendance. Severe Accident. As 3Ir. Crabb was riding on horseback in from the Fair Grounds, on last Tuesday evening, his horse became frightened and threw him off, breaking his collar bone and otherwise injuring him very severely. JBIn consequence of everybody want ing to attend the Fair this week, our readers will please pardon the scarcity of reading matter and "deal with us kindly." Next week we will "come to time"-again. Personal. Wc this week had the pleasure of taking by the hand 3Ir. Au gust Schwatka, publisher of the Oregon Agriculturist. B-O-N-T'O-N. "Brick" Pomery has been to Boston, and thus gives his impression of the "hub." "Boston is tho cradle of Lib I Tho placo near where 31 r. Warren fell and hurt himself. Tho plnco where Wendell Phillips, tho "silver tongued (what u gag !) orator doth ubide. It is tho hub ot tho u in verso ami the dwellmg'-placo of tho big organ. Bos toil thinks alio is the largest placo in tins world or tho next. Boston is a very complacent burg near by is tho home ot Boston'. s pet, thcsilver waro stealing Ben. Wo rathe liko Bos ton, for there is no villago liko unto it from tho fiddling of Nero to tho Revela tion of St. John, N. B. 1 Half wuy between Providence and Bos ton for Boston is a long ways from Providence as wo wero riding in a cart, a still mii;i11 voico, liko tho whistle of an engine, broke upon tho air. A gcntle mmi in tho seat with us uncovered his bald head, and with a smile bade us listen f "What's that Vf said wc. "Tho big organ iu Boston," said he, with a funeralie wag of his head. "Tho devil 1 " said wc. "Thou phalt not profane," said tho spokesman from tho hub. "Hast been to Boston asked ho of the silver-tongue. "Wc hast notist " replied wc, then there to him. 4 Ho looked "poor heathen !" Ho said wc must viit tho Cradle of Liberty. Wc asked him if I red Douglass and Anna Dickinson had engaged that cradle yet? lie didn't sec it. lie said wo must visit Fancuil Hall. Wo asked him what nig- ner troupe was periorming there now? He looked bewildered. I hen ho said we must see where Warren fell. We asked him if Warren ever got over it the place where ho fell. Ho appeared de moralized. He said we must hear the big organ before we left Boston. We went to hear the big organ. It is held in several buildings. It is one size laigcr than Boston. Boston is the hub around which the organ revolves. The organ is a revolver. Like the Boston organ, this is a big play on words People in Now York and Buffalo hear the moan of the sea. The moau is the big organ. It is UHcd in 3!as. It has a Mrt of long island sound ! Boston people go to heaven through the bi That is when the nigger is out so they cannot go through him. There arc but few gambling houses in Boston. No such fellow arc around that hub. They don't play "straits" in Boston. Not in the streets. Harvard College is just beyond reach of the big organ. Cambridge University is always in session. It is a law school. The pleading is done at the bar of the Pxirkrr IIouo. The studies at Cambridge are said to be very dry. The studies affect the pu- fiils. Pleading at the bar offects them ikewise or tnor like than wise. No one ever gets Jot in Boston. The city is so well organized. Like the big organ, Boston has numer ous stops! Some of the streets arc near Iv as long Gsh polc. But not to long as 1 'oik's message. If a man don't like one street in Bostou, it is very easy to get on another one. After four days' trial wc could fret from the Parker Hou-e to the City Hall without getting lo.it I This is a fact! And in Five days we learned the route from Scollay's Building to Engine House No. t: The businc.es blocks in Boston arc in shape like Norwegian shoes. The streets in Boston arc like hop poles struck by lightniug. Some of them arc so wide that a cow could le milked in them by turning her on her back and sitting astride her bris ket. Small horses arc driven abreast large ones in tandem, in Boston. The fat woman was exhibited there once in the big organ. Boston streets arc not so crooked as might be. The sun has warped them straight. Very clean iu Boston. If a lady drops a pin from her clothes, police man makes her pick it up. If a man shoots an apple seed out of a grocery he is fined. Boston is very neat especially near the big organ and Cradle of Liberty. If a man drops a remark he is made to pick it up. And Boston people arc so modest they underrate themselves terribly. The streets of Boston must have been thrown iu at the time of some big fire. They aro so regular. If you would find any place, start in an opposite direction. If you see a policeman coming toward you, he is going tho other way. If he runs from you, he'll be where you arc in no time. Up hill is down, and "over there" is "back here." One day wo started from tho office of the Boston Post to tho Boston Post office, seventy feet distant. Wc walked straight ahead went around seven blocks, saw a policeman standing in a doorway on each block asked each one the route to tho post office. Saw the eighth policeman asked him politely. Said he : "Look here, this is tho eighth timo you have asked me that question. 3Iovo on, or up you go." Thought the policemen must be broth ers they looked so much alike I Rather than to go around the block again wo went 'tother way, began to un wind, and got into the post office by mis take. The front of tho building is inside in the courts. Except tho big organ and the cradle ! Ben. Butler spoke while we were there on tho restoration policy. Went to this meeting expecting to pec him giving back siverwaro and other val uables. Was mistaken. That kind of restoration was not policy. House rents are cheap in Boston. 3Iov ing is cheoper than house rent. It's all owing to the hub, the big organ and the cradle. There is no drinking in Boston. No peculiar female characters. What is common is not peculiar. New Bedford is to be moved into Bos ton soon. By legislative enactment the mumps are to be confined to Democrats; the cholera W to (rouble only foreigners ; the chicken-pox is to bo confined to old hens; niggers aro to have straight hair to dis grace them, and tho whites arc to have curly wool on' their craniums to make them popular in Boston. Not forgetting the big organ and the cradle ot liberty I Now York is in tho watch fob. the South is in the breeches pocket, and the West buttons on tho tail of tho coat of Boston. Tho sun rises in Boston the final con flagration of mundane things will begin in Boston, on account of tho big organ and tho cradle. Boston would have been laid out more regularly if tho dogs olden times had been pointers or the cows had walked in moro direct paths. Therefore wc sec many calves in Boston. So much for tilt ing hoops. A good placo to movo from, if one moves early. From tho cradle to the big organ. Crookedly, Brick Pomeroy. A iirace of Bulls. Two gallant sons of Erin, being just discharged from the scsvico, wero rejoicing over the event with n "wco tasto of tho crayter," when one, who felt all thu glory of his own race, suddenly raised his glass above, and said : "Arrah, 3Iikc, here s to tho gallant ould 00th the last on tho field and the first to lave it." "Tut, tut, man," aid 3Iikc, "yo don't mano that." " Don't mane it, is it? Then fawt do I mane f " Vc mano," said 31ikc. and ho raised his glass high, and looked lovingly at it: "Here's to tho gallatit ould 09th equal to none!" And so they drank. MimiTV Hari. "Do you support president Johnson ?" "No." "Do you support Congress ?" "No." "Do you support the Fenian movement?" "No, sirie ? I support Betsey and the children, and it's mighty hard to get along at that with flour fifteen dollars a barrel." Since the bar rooms in New York arc shut up on sunday, some of the barbers invented a new hair tonic for the beard r which is applied just under the mus- che. A N EW A D V ERTLSE3I EXTS. t.
