SATURDAY MAT 15, 1869
Uaisbuqh. On last Saturday, through
la J politeness of D. M. Thompson. Esq..
Mt wero invited to a seat in his buggy for a
tice to HarrisWgh, to attend tho funeral of
Sir. Thomas Martin, rasaing up through
tho pleasant and quiet town of Peoria,
Vfclch ii situated in a romantic grove on the
"classic banks of the bright Willamette,
and traversing some of tho finest and richest
country in the -world, we arrived at Harris
hatgk about noon, and "hung up" at the
Merchant' Hotel, kept by J. Gore a very
tplaisant and agreeable gentleman. Harris
Iburgb. is a thrifty, growing and beautiful
'town, and contains aonio business houses
irhich will compare favorably with any
' itore in Albany, whilo the privato residen-
ces are generally neat, new, and some of
'them of superior construction. It is one of
Ubt most extensive shipping points on the
dipper Willamette; and tho country but
bounding it is rich and productivo to a re
xaarkabla degree. We predict a brilliant
and successful future for that section of
'old Linn." The funeral of Mr. Martin
was the largest we have witnessed in Oregon,
there being a procession of vehicles about a
half mile in length, besides about fifty per
sons on horseback. The services were con
ducted by the Masonic fraternity, of which
deceased was a bright and worthy member.
Grar.d Master Avery Smith, of Eugene, pre
sided over the ceremonies, and tho most pro
found attention was paid to the services by
the entire concourse of people Deceased
leaves a widow and ten children to mourn
his loss, besides a large circle of friend in
that locality, where he was known and C3.
ttemtid for his many virtues.
Itik. Our devils aro ma'mg a boat.
Fact ! It will be know by tho euphonious
appellation of "Gf.TIj," and is intend
ed to run in te trade between tho Cali
pooia brid a'nd Foster's mill dam. The
boys w"ti launch it with, .appropriato core
U tales this afternoon, at which a public
Collation may be partaken of at each indi
vidual's house within the city limits. They
have also made arrangements with the pro
prietors of the Albany Brewery and tho va
rious saloons whereby any ono desiring to
"take a nip" can be accommodated at the
reduced price of ono bit per drink. The
City Council, and Albany Fire Company
with their engine appropriately decorated,
headed by the Brass Band, and followed by
4a large and imposing procession of specta
tors, are hereby invited to participate. Pe
destrians are expected to walk, while ample
arrangements have been ma for those who
desire to. ride at their own expense. The
hour for preparation will be signalized by a
war viioop from the the throats of a delega
tion cf Calipooia Si washes in undress uni
form. Guests from abroad will be required
to sleep and eat themselres, f.r which gor
geous arrangements have been made at the
Overland Hotel and Oro Fino Restaurant.

Tbk Official IIistort or the CiriL W'au bdt
Twsjf the States; its Causes, Character
Conduct, and Results; by Hon. Alexander II.
Stephens, Vice Presides t cf tho lata Confeder
ate States."
Such is the title of a work recently pub
lished by Bancroft & Co., San Francisco. It
presents a careful political analysis of the
past, separating real from apparent causes
of the late conflict, and furnishes to the
American people an epitome of that bril
liant era when 3Ir. Stephens stood the peer
of the immortal triumvirate. Clay, WcLstcr
and Calhoun, in the balls of our National
Legislature ; and descending to a later peri
od, gives those interior lights and shadows
of the Civil War only known to those high
oSceri who watched the flood-tide of revolu
tion from its fountain springs, and which
were so accessible to Mr. Stephens from his
positioa as Vice President of the Confeder
acy. .
G. XT. Brock, Esq., is now canvassing this
section of country to procure subscribers to
this truly great work ; and we advise our
friends to avail themselves of this opportuni
ty to secure it.
A Fatal Maladt. There is a species o
fever raging in the family of Mr. Anderson
Dcekard, of .Orleans Precinct, this county,
which has bafHed all the skill and efforts of
physicians, and proved fatal to a sad extent.
Mrs! X'eckard was the first member of the
family attacked, and she died in a few days.
-A week subsequent to her death, Ruth El
len, aged about eighteen, shared the sad
fate of her mother ; and on last Monday an
other daughter, Mrs. Snodgrass, of Harris
burgh, was consigned to the narrow tomb, a
victim to the same malignant disease. We
understand that a son of Mr. Deckard, and
also a couple of young ladies who were fre
quently in attendance during the illness of
the family, are at present dangerously af
flicted with the same terrible and nameless
courgc.
- Albant Brass Band. The Band have
lept constantly practicing until they have
. UPW become a musical success, both as re
gard the variety of tho pieces which they
, play an I the manner in which they render
J them. The "bojs" display a spirit of mag-'
.;m:ir'4i1v iden ia organizations of
that nature, as they have yolanteered to
-"blow", on several occasions when, it was
hardly expected of thVm, and their charges
ere .sjq fsuall as to excite wonder at their lib
eraiity. The Albany Brasa Band has now
become so intimately identified with the
"institution" of our city that it would de
xnoralizo us to have it become defunct.
h Wickedest Man in Linn county is he
who will not read the advertisement - of P.
C. Harper, in to days paper, and then go
to his st are, examine, his goods, and pro
rioanHe'lhenv equal to any ever brought to
Albfiroyrti tetania selection, style, and fit
ness for this market. Mr. Harper has used
his we! known unexceptionable taste in
purlha kg his rtocky and - ha has secured
them, at prices which will warrant him in
eeUine them at very low figures. We hope
the people of this locality will give him a
jjr rncduragement and patrQnage. r
Mot'KTAi.v Waco.v Road Opix. Mr. Mar
tin Luper has just returned from a trip to
Fish Lake, and reports that tho Willamette
Valley and Cascade Mountain Wagon Road
is now open for travel from Albany to Ocho
co Valley. There is snow for three or four
miles this side of Fish Lake, but it is vory
soft and disappearing rapidly; whilo tho
entire routo ia comparatively frco from mud
He also reports that the grass which was
sown along the road by the Road Company
is coming up beautifully, and thero wil
soon bo an abundance of feed for stock. A
gentleman has already started across the
mountains with a drovo of cattle, and in a
few days more a party of several persons
will start from this city for Ochoeo Valley
among whom aro Jacob Norcross, Col. N. S.
Morgan, J. Linsey Hill and Wm.'S. Driggs
tho two former to remain during tho sum

Match It. Ay, Messieurs of tho Faculty,
urnish if you can from your repertory of
medicaments, a compound or a simplo sub
stanco that will produce tho same beneficent
results that tho Plantation Bitters are
producing in all parts of tho United States,
tropical America, and tho West Indies, every
day. What will this preparation do? Brief-
y, it will replace debility with strength,
rcgulato tho disordered liver, tono tho relax

restore the appetite, relievo headache, cure
lever ana ague, prevent tho evil effects of
unwholesome, water, chaso away mental
gloom, and mitigate or removo most of the
physical troubles, peculiar to the gentler sex.

Tue Engine uas Arrived". This was
the cry that saluted our cars from every
quarter on last Tuesday morning ; and we
rushed down to the landing, with tho rest
of the town, to eo tho "elephant." The
engine is of tho Cuwon manufacture, ap
parently almost new, and when cleaned up
will doubtless present a beautiful appear
ance. 1 lie cylinders aro eight and a half
inches in diameter, and are calculated to
throw three streams of water. Persons who
have had experience in euvh matters cay
that it is the finest and best hand engine cn
the coast, and the members'of the "One-
stcrs" are hugely pleased with her "make
up" generally. The hose-carriage and hose
aro entirely new, and there seems to be suf
ficient of the latter to squirt all over towu.
Messrs. A. Cowan, A. I lac Idem an, Jason
Wheeler, John Suttle and S. Althuuso will
leave this city on a reviewing expedition
across the Mountains, intending to locato a
route for the extension or the Cascade Moun
tain Wagon Road through to Snake rier.
As soon as the route is reviewed the road
w'll be surveyed and located ; and as aoon
thereafter a possible improvements will be
commenced. This read will bo a vast bene
fit to the people of the Willamette Valley,
as it will be the only available wagon and
stock route from this pcction to tho upper
country, and a great deal nearer than any
other known way to Snake River and Boise
Citr.

while harrowing a field, was thrown from
one of the horses, and tho harrow dragged

Truly, both Congress and our Stita Legislatures

der the present contradictory, incongruous and

liquor question, intemperance, with all its horrible
consequences, is as sure- to increase and multiply
as the sun is to generate miasma from a swamp,

a single article, and will be taken up again in
these columns, with a view to throw more light
upon It. "Temperance in all things" is a noble
motto, and it is a sad fact that tho tealots in a
