rioRUBLs DtATO. Alvin Brock, whom
w- lout week mentioned having been round
by throadil InVenrfblOj bating, as it was
jppoaed, been thrown and kicked by a
horse, died on last Thursday morning be
Hmen!taDd2 o'clock: After ho was dis
cot erod, though he lingered sercral days, he
was apparently insensible, and was neTer
laill to explain bo manner in which he re
ceWed his wounds ; though it is generally
bol'ieted that while watering his horse at the
.well he had, wrapped the halter securely
Ground his arm so as to be able to use both
bunds in drawing the water 5 after wa'cr.
Jflg the horse her, is supposed to hav started
towards the barn, and when about half way
mis supposed by Mr. Brock's hat and the
w iter bucket being" found at this place, the
horse became, frightened in some manner
nnd ran-away, dragging his unfortunate
.tnaatcr .with lam by tho arm. It is supposed
! it be continued to ran thus until exhaust
d. 1 The horse and bistictim wcro found in
Mr. Brock's' pasture, about S00 yards from
ha house, with Mr. B. still fastened to him,
rd insensible, s was previously stated.
The hore had worn a path in walking
artmnd him during the night, and Mr. B's
clothing was considerably torn, nnd his head
Vt id the lower part of his person lmdlj brain
ed. Probably some eighteen hours had elapsed
frora the time the horse started to run until
Ihe was found in the pasture. Mr. B. had
lam on the ground all night. No wonder
that he died. -
Mr. Brock wa a highly respectable and
promising young man of 2G years was a
Whelor and possessed of considerable estate.

UPrKHCISIS CHANGED
Zivhcrcvill bo

. . . l..!ii1iml A sen.M'if Inn.
tt tne Liinn vumy s -
changing and enlarging the premium in
I certain'cases. The changes principally re
late to stock, and were doubtless needed and
demanded The offer of such liberal pre
intums for Fire Companies and Velocipedes
should be regarded as commendable and
enterprising, and will add greatly to the
jther attractions of the Fair. If the Board
were to g still further, as have some East-
'era Agricultural Societies, and offer prises
for the fattest babies, and the handsomest
irli, and the crosscst old maids, and the
i stingiest old bachelors, they would add still
greater facilities for bringing out the people.
These Fairs should ho more generally attend
ed and more liberally patronircd, as they
. are sure indication of the country's wea.th,
enterprise, prosperity and prductinns. Kv
crv farmer, mechanic and professional man
- who regard the interest of hi community
n worth an effort, should do something to
awell the attractions at the annual Agricul
tural Exhibitions which are row being held
all over our land. Citizens of Linn and ad-
jacent counties will bear in mind that the
next Linn County Fair will be held on the
8ih, 29ti t.d 30 th days of September and
the 1st day of October.
PaIN'TIX TOE Ct BT ltOL'SS. At the last
meeting of the Commissioners' Court for
Linn county, an ordr was made to have the
court-house re-painted entire, from base to
pire the building proper to be painted a
drab or dun color, and the cupola to be paint
ed white. This is a good idea, and will re
fleet creditu pon the ofScialsorderingitdone.
Our Court House has too long presented a
black aad snbre appearance, and we are
only surprised that its mournful color was
not changed for an , aspect more cheering
' long ago. "Besides the building badly need
ed a new coat of paint to preserve it from
decay. Mi. Cun.diff is npw awaiting hids
from painters,' and as scon as the contract is
let the work, will be commenced.
Judical Ixtelugexce. A radical post
mazier in this county soojc time sine gave
; a reum fir not desirin'g a change in the
aiail Lj at hi office, that the Albany papers
which were 'to !e7 accommodated by thej
,ch;tngti didn't "amount to much, anyway."!
Thj same fellow returns the paper of J. T.
Eastiake to this office with this on the mar
gin : "There is no sutch person here,"
wbsrebj we .know that .AVcbstrr'a fpclling
lKuk, like the Albany papers, dont amount
ta in-Mih anyway" with one radical P. M.
'. '? i'.jiLtif Marble Yard. During a recent
visit to Salem we enjoyed the pleasure of a
look through Mr. Monroe's Marble Yard,
and were surprised and pleased with the
night of such superior material and fine
workmanship as is bere displayed. Mr.
- M 'a establishment contains specimens of
art which will compare favorably with any
institution of the same nature on the coast,
nnd reflects credit on the taste and enterprise
nf its proprietor. Head his card among our
new advertisements.
Kane's Soap. We are not "soft-soaping"
any enc when we say that KaneTa condensed
soaj):is giving general satisfaction wherever
used. It is certainly a blessing to the poor
woman- who is compelled to bend her back
over the wash-board weekly, as it abolishes
the "wash-day" that of rubbing the clothes,
fit ft's? cleanses in a superior manner. Read
jthe testimonials 'among our new ad's. "
Elected. At a special meeting of Albany
y ire Company, held last Monday evening,
iJ. Jl.,Comley, Esq., was unanimously elect
ed Foreman, vice Joseph Webber, resigned.
This is generally regarded as a good selec
tion, as it is believed Mr. Comley will take
grea t interest in the Company and its affairs,
and will make a competent and popular
.Officer. ; ' ; ' : -;, '7

phiz and manly frame of D. W. Wakefield,
Portland postmaster, t darkened our; office

of tis thankless "posish," he looked re

Matters ix Texas. A letter from Mr.
W. II. Cundiff, in Texas, dated June 12,
says :
"Our prospects for crops were good until

PoisN ScrrtiNTEO. Tle deadly "Bre
water," which for many years was so fatl
to the gold-seekers of California, is, to ue
tho vernacular nf the mines, "about played
out." The diggers or qutrtx-eruhers de
cline, as a rule, to buy or use it. They find,
however, that a tonic is necearry to enable
theni to withstand the unhealthy atmosphere
of the placers, and to bear up against the
privations and hardships to which they were
subjected. After having tried a variety of
medicated stimulants w th a view of holding
fast to the best, they seem, as a class, to
have settled down in the opinion that
Drake's Plantation' Kilters have no equal
as a strength-sustaining preparation and as
an antidote to the malaria that produces in
termittent and remittent fevers.
Dr. WntTcoMB comes to Albany with a
new and what is said to be a superior mode
of treating disease. This is y means of
an instrument called "The Equaliser." The
Doctor expects to make Albany his home

zen we extend to him a cordial welcome.
His advertisement, fully explaining this new
and successful manner of treatment, will ap.
