LIXN COUNTY FAIR.
We publish to-day the premium list of the
Linn Co. Asricultural Association, to be
awarded at its third annual Fair, to be held
at their Fair Grounds, one mile south of
Albany, on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday, September 22d, 23d, 24tb,
and 25th; 1S6S. The following named gen
tlemen are the officers of the Linn Co. Agri
cultural Association : President, A. llack
leman ; Vice President, E. II. GrifEn ; Sec
retary, James Elkins ; Marshal, M. Luper.
The Directors are : E. II. Griffin, D. Fro
man, M. Luper, Jesse Parrish, Allen Par
ker, S. Montgomery.
We Tisited the Fair Grounds on Wednes
day last, and gleaned the following facts :
Some new buildings hare been erected
for the better accommodation of stock. The
race track has been entirely enclosed, and
the track is in most excellent condition.
We presume it cannot be excelled on the
coast. The following named horses are now
on the grounds in process of training, viz :
Bunninj horses Nancy Jane March,
Red Jacket, and Flying Billy, all owned by
Wm. Gird. Also, Mr. G. is training a
3-year old mare owned by Mr. Riley of Al
bany. Stonewall Jackson, owned by Thom
as Hardy. Doodley, a filly owned by E. C.
Hurling. Limber Jim, owned by It. Stin
net. JeST. Davis, Big John, Peytyna and
Slander, owned by L. C. Younger of Lane
county.
Trotlinj horses Wm. Gird has one but
riot yet named. Silver Tail, owned by A.
J. Thayer of CorvlU. ALe, . owned bj
John Uurd. Mr. Wallace is training Com
et, Juni' Lady Jeosie, Belle Brandon, Lady
ThoraeJup-Jake, Nelly, Oregon John,
Blackbird, Bald Hornet and Vermont. The
four last named horses are owned by other
parties. It is known that other hordes will
soon be on the grounds. Wm. Gird has
three pacers in training in addition to those
already mentioned.
As some have expressed surprise that we
did not, some time ago, publish the Premi
um List, we will state that the copy wa3 not
- furnished us until this week ; the Board of
Directors, however, arc Mamele3 in the
matter.
We are glad that so much interest i3 being
manifested in the Fair. All classes of citi
zens, and especially mechanics andfar-
mcrs, cannot well spend too much time or
take too deep an interest in the Linn County
Agricultural Fair. We know, and admit
that there are some evils connected with
Fairs ; but their general tendency is exceed
ingly beneficial to any community. Through
them the various kinds of domestic animals
are vastly improved ; inventors are stimula
ted to extra exertion ; and every department
of agriculture, the mechanic arts and the
various ramifications of housewifery and
domestic economy receive a fresh and healthy
impetus. Let all do what they can to make
our next Fair the best old Linn has yet bad.
STATE ORPHAN'S AID SOCIETY.
Salem, Aug. 18, 1863.
Mer. Abbott 4c. Ilrourn.
I would infurm the public through your paper
that there will be a Fair held in Salem on the 24th
and 25th of September, for the purpose of raising
money for tbe "Oregon Children's Aid Society,"
an association of benevolent ladies whose worthy
object is to provide for the many orphan and friend
less children in our midst.
This Society desire co-operation from all parts
of the State, and money and articles suitable for
the Fair can be left with Mrs. Jobn Barrows, who
is Vice-President of this Society for Linn county,
or with Mrs. E. II. GrifSn.
Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Parrish have donated ten
acres of valuable land as a building spot for the
Home, and tbe Society have some twelve hundred
dollars of available means, and are negotiating
with mechanics to commence building immediate
ly. This is a good work for the people of Linn to
aid, and it is hoped that the ladies of Albany and
yleinity will join in this common cause for good.
By order of the Board.

A Bkautifcl Design. Perry Miller, of
the firm of Miller A Br.o., marble cutters, has exe
cute 'on a marble slab a kneeling figure of the
youthful .fudge of IsraeJ, Samuel, which in artis
tic finish and 'design, equals anything of tbe kind
we have ever seen in Oregon, The figure is clear
cut and symmetrical, tbe features regular and
natural, and the posture graceful in the extreme,
i'erry is undoubtedly a natural artist, and with
the requisite practice,' would become an honor to
the art of sculpturing. There are some other
beautiful specimens of work at the shop, perform
ed by the elder brother, Ira M.
Magnolia Mills. These mills, which for
some time past have been idle, will start
agai rteit week, so we are informed. They
"liave been thoroughly overhauled and im
proved ; and the quantity of flour which
they are able to manufacture daily will be
greatly increased. We hope the Messrs.
Foster will be amply remunerated for the
additional expense which . they have incur

Firs in tiie Mountains. Whilo wo
write this the atmosphere is filled with
smoke from the mountains. This morning
(Sept. 1.) at five o'clock tho air was so com
pletely Buroharged with smoke and fog that
one could not discern a roan twenty yards
distant. The sun is invisible by day, unj
the moon and stars by night. Every thing
and everybody looks gloomy and dismal.
Such a time has not been witnessed in Ore
gon sinco 1840, so we aro told by 'old set
tlers. .
This smoke is caused by tho burning of
tho forests of firs on tho Cascades and Coast
range mountains. A party of hunters just
down from tho Cascade mountains who
had been up to Fish Lake and caught over
fifteen hundred spec-Mod trout at two hauls
report that thefiro originated, they think, in
YineJMaple Bottom ; and that last Saturday
it traveled faster than they could. Every
thing was perfectly dry and burned liko tin
der. They describo tho burning of the
tall trees as being grand aud tcrriblo beyond
description. The sound resembled Almt f
the ocean when lashed into fury by oAtorm.
On Sabbath morning tho trees commenced
falling, producing a noise liko Jcavy can
nonading in the distance. Tho party, or
members thereof, were in imminent ganger
several times, from the fire axid falling trees;
but fortunately they all Jescaped without
material injury bringiig with them not
only tho fish they had caught, but the hams,
and saddles, aud skins of fourteen deer they
had killed.

Shrewd Detectives. Somo time ago a
package containing $50,000 was stolen frum
a desk in the Canal Bank of New Orleans,
in a roost mysterious manner. Oa a careful
examination of the premises, the detective
discovered the mark of a small nail upon the
edge of a railing, on which tho thief must
have placed his foot, aud that ho must have
been a tall man. Thev concluded the nail
was in the heel of the robber's IkmiI, and
thai the wear of the leather had left the nail
head projecting so that it would mark what
ever be would step upon. The officers be
came, thenceforth, anxiuus observers of all
boot-heel', and after many days two of them
happened into the City Hotel. Among the
crowd a man was sitting, with one foot rais
ed upon his knee, engaged in trying to bend
or break off a projecting tack in tho heel of
his boot. A glance showed that he was tall
enough, and forthwith the officers arrested
hira, charging him with the robbery. He
confessed ; said he went to the bank to in
quire the rate of exchange, saw the package
lying upon the dek, and, when tho clerk
turned his back for a moment, reached up,
snatclied the money and left. He bad not
ventured to uao any of it. and the whole was!
recovered.
We wish Ai'uany ImJ
sharp as these ; we should then have strong
hopes that the deeply-dyed villain who at
tempted to burn up the ciy lu4 week might
be brought to justice. He was tracked some
distance in his stocking foot. The design cf
the scoundrel evidently was tu burn out Mar
shall &. Schlosser at all hazard.

Messrs. Hostetter A Smith Sirs nI believe your
Bitters arc the beat in uxe. I tried them for dys
pepsia in 1863, and they cured me. It was not
faith that did it, tor I bad no faith, in them; I tried
them to please a friend. I had been prostrated for
several weeks with dyspepsia and cbronio diarrhea.
I expected to die ; but less than one bottle so far
reatored me that I could attend to my business.
Laat October I overworked myself, which resulted
in a return of the same disease, accompanied with
bronchial affection, when I again used your Bitters,
and was soon restored to health. I have recom
mended them to hundreds of my acquaintances,
and have never known them to fail in effecting a
