ANOTHER PbINTEB IN Luck. Our renders will remember a wandering Jour printer who a few years ago turnr ed up in Oregon as a partner wmi iur. Quivey in establishing the Corvullis Democrat. - His name was Jas. A. MH'er, and he dropped out of sight and memory in a very few wfeeks after the first issue ot that paper. We re member of meeting him once afterward in Portland clothed in flannel shirt and ducking breeches, and he informed us that he had been trying to make hash by chopping cord-wood for a low er-Columbia forrester; then again bout two years ago, he Vas for a few months, associated with our young friend Charley Mosher, in the publiea- "tion of the Roseburg Plaindealcr. But his roving restless disposition cul tivated by doing years of "tramping1! impelled him to pack up his carpet sack and light out into the wide, wide world; and the next we hear of him ,is by the reception of a copy of the Athens (Ohio) Journal, of which he is senior publisher and editor, and which informs the world that our "tramp" is just about to start on a hurried trip to his childhood home "away down in Maine," where he goes for the purpose of coming in at the settlement of his father's estate, having been bequeath ed a large amount of earthly treasure. Such windfalls seldom occur to any of the craft, but It is all the more appre ciated when the luck does come. After sin Ishmaelitic wandering from the ice-clad hills of Maine to the confines of the Sunny South, from the rock bound shores of the Atlantic to the slumbering waves of the Pacific, often with only the sky for a canopy and the bosom of-Mother Earth whereon to repose his weary limbs; at times far from the confines of civilization, with savages and wild beasts seemingly-: anxious for his society, It would be no wonder if, after this great change has taken place, he would feel considerably elevated.' We also learn from private sources that Miller (has married a rich Buckeye widow, which will, we trust, add much to his happiness. WouLntfr Commute. We are proud to say that wo last week found one stern chaqipion of justice in Baleni who wouldn't fuvor Gerrand's commu tation under any circumstances. lie Is a small boy perhaps might be class ed among the ranks of the genus hoodlum but nevertheless ho sticks to principle and will not be swayed from the path of rectitude by the clam ors of free-lpvers, the banging of Gos pellers or the appeals of susceptible lawyers. When he heard of the com mutation of the murderer's sentence the hot blood of a Jeffries or a Robes pierre coursed through his veins and his indignant breast heaved with vio lent emotions of outraged justice. Tak ing his little sister by the. hand and leading her hurriedly out to the stable, he suddenly whipped out a rope trom his pocket, adjusted a noose around her neck, put the line over a beam and promptly yanked her off her feet After suspending her thus for a few seconds he happened to think that he hadn't secured her dying confession for the paper, and he iet her down, almost choked to death, and while sol emnly abjuring her to confess to theft, arson, murder, etc., the father sudden ly appeared on the scene and interrupt ed the course of justice bythe Inaugu ratlon'of lynch law' in the shape of a vigorous panking. That oppressed and down-trodden youthf.il vindicator of the law walked off on his ear, mournfully murmuring, while holding his hand on the outraged part of his person, "How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a span kin' dad!"

An Interestlngr Letter from the Upper Fart of tbu County -MlauQuUho Health, Wealth, mid Proxiertfl f North and South BrownevlHe and UalSey. Brownsville, Feb, 2, 1875. Editor Democrat: I have written, out a few items here which you can publish if you deem them, of sufficient interest to your readers. . ' HALSEY. Considerable shipping has been going on lately, although; there Is yet In the the Farmers' Warehouse about 43.000 buhels of grain. J The village has received several new accessions to itsjiopulatiou during the past winter by arriy&ls of persons from the East, and all are making ready for extensive improvements in, the Spring. , The Halsey Brass Band is malting great improvement under the instruc tion of Prof. John Everest. They are now practicing every evening, and if their interest does not flag they will soon be able to compete for musical honors with any baud in the State. The health' of the community has been generally very good up to the time iif the recent cold "snap," but since that time coughs, colds, etc., have been prevalent. ' The farmers in the vicinity are not scared out In the least by the low price which they received for their- wheat during the past Beason, but are now mivking arrangements to put in a great ier.bfeadth af train than ever before. The Good Temolars are to have a grand festival' ut their hall on the 22d itisti.'the proceeds to be applied to- wards purchasing a library for the use of the I,odge. A splendid public school is taught at this place by Prof. Finley, formerly of Corvallis. It now lias in attendance about 70 scholars, and as the teacher is well liked the school is continually on the increase. The store recently started by a com pany of farmers of that community, is doing a splendid business, and will no doubt in the future get its full share of the trade. J SOUTH BROWNSVILLE. Blacksmith and wagon shops are rushed with work. The farmers, like those near Halsey, are getting ready to put in a large amount of grain in the Spring. The public school which has been taught for a year past by Rev. W. R. Bishop, came to a close about two weeks, ago, but the teacher was so uni versally well-liked that the Directors only allowed him one week's vacation and he was reemployed and opened out again lust Monday. About 05 students attend the school and the number is constantly increasing. Trade is as lively as could be expect ed. The health of the citizens is very good with the exception of coughs and cold, which now seem to afflict the people all oyer file State. : NOKTfl nitOWNSVILLE. Trade is very good and the merchants doing well considering the present dull times. This town was incorporated at the last session of the Legislature and since that time has done an immense amount of improving. The streets have beeu greatly improved, and side walks extended to all parts of the city, and a general tiir of thrift pervades the whole community. A very large public school is now being carried .on under the manage ment of Prof, Gilbert. The regular at tendance is from 75 to 90, with a grad ual increase in numbers and interest'. Miss Lottie Burns, of Eugene, Is now engaged in giving lessons in in strumental music, and hits a class of about twelve scholars at present. The teacher is universally liked and her scholars are improving rapidly. The Eagle Woolen Mills started up again last Monday after having been closed since the beginning of the re cent cold weather. They are now working eight or ten looms and the rest of the machinery is operated by a full force of workmen. They expect now to run on full time until they ex haust their present supply of material, which will be in about two months. This factory is establishing quite a reputation for its goods all over the State, and will, in time become a source of large revenue to that part of the county. REPORTER. Business Changes. During the past week there have beeu several business changes in this city. A few days ago Josh Taylor sold the building in whioh he has been keeping saloon to a Mr. Hyde, who, we understand, will shortly open out a grocery store at that place. Mr. Taylor, after selling his saloon, immediately bought the interest of 8. Montgomery in the sa loon opposite the St. Charles Hotel, and it is to be in the future engineered by the Taylor Brothers, S. Montgom ery, having sold but ills Interest in the "liquid dispensatory," purchased the Albany Wagon Factory of Mr. Peters and will hereafter be engaged in the manufacture of the famous 'Albany Wagon." We are glad to hear that Mr. M. has secured the valuable ser vices of Mr. Peters, and that gentle man will still continue to superintend the work done in the shop. The Game Law. We publish In this issue the ameudmentof the game law, which is literally a destruction of the protection which tiie law hereto fore afforded. It will be seen that per sons may at any and all times kill m which mav be trespassing on . - (heir lands or wnicn may oe neeneu lor . I their own consumption.

Jiditor Democrat : " In the last issue of your valuable paper I saw a communication again from Stockholder No. 2, which he has requested me to answer. In my card published iti your paper of January 22d, 1875, I fully answered all his questions, and why he wants a repeti tion I do not understand, unless he is put forward by other parties who are using him for their own benefit. His communication is made up.of false representations and I will let the stockholders answer for themselves. The object of his communications I am sure is to cause dissatisfaction anions the stockholders. My conscience is clear in regard to the business of the company and having done my duty I shall not notice any communication he may write unless he will sign his true name. 'Should any stockholder feel -aggrieved at anything I have done, or dt any transaction in regard to the busi ness of the company, the records and books in the office of the company are always open, for examination. We have no secret to conceal in regard to the business. We consider the one that said lie saw the communications before being published, and not giving his name, equally responsible for the communi cations. G. F. Simpson. - Retrospection. We see in the At lantic (Iowa) Telegraph, edited by our boyhood friend, Lafe Young, that the youngsters are having gay times this winter sleighrides in the country, and tafly pulliugs, in which "the lasses grow doubly sweet." Ah, Lafe, my boy, don't yod remember the gal lus times we were wont to have in that sacharlferous Hue In the halcyon days of our green and happy boyhood? A big sleigh-full of girls and boys', all bundled up in robes and blankets and comforters and mixed together in a heterogeneous mass of cassimere and jeans and flannels and dimity; the jol ly laughter andsmothered"0, don'ts!" mingled with the merry jingle of the bells and echoed far out into the crys tal night, making sweet musici the sound of which still lingers in our memory and vibrates on our heart strings, almost annihilating the check ered years which Ho betwsen that young and thoughtless time and the cool, calculating, dignified days of our maturer manhood. Many of our readers will recognize in this brief picture a photograph of their youthful enjoyments amid the frigid winters of the older States and will involuntarily heave a sigh of re gret for the days of "Auld Lanit Syne;" but if they pay their subscription and eat sparingly of pig's feet, the burdens of life will rest about as light ly on their stomachs as in the young er days of mince pies, doughnuts and tight boots. A Fright. A bachelor sojourning in our city, after spending an eveninir lust week with some friends, Btarted for his lodgings, only -a few squares off. Whiletrudgingalongcoiitemplat- ing perhaps the time when, "webs" would be more useful than skates, or, perchance, meditating two per cent., a bright light all at once shone round about him. Perhaps the light was not so bright or of the same character as that seen by Paul on his way to Da mascus in fact wo kuow it was not, for it shone from one of tho second story windows near by. Our bachelor friend raised his eyes in that direction, when lo! in the chamber from whence the light proceeded stood a figure robed in spotless white. Was it from the celestial realms, or was it of earth ? Our friend was for a Moment motion less and then his teeth commenced chattering, his knees siunte together, and at last he sought safety in flight. The first obstacle he encountered was a shade tree, next a pile of wood, then a poor calf had to be the victim of a merciless collision, and then, by another stumble, a spotted dog was sent "kyeyi-ing" down the street. We are happy to say that in the course of. time our bachelor friend arrived at his lodgings "a wiser if not a better man," but he still heaps imprecations upon those who do not lower their window curtains before disrobing. Snaoged. We learn from our trav elling agent, Mr. J. M, Marks, that the steamer Alice met with an accident last Tuesday afternoon, about a mile awl a half above Butna Vista. She was running along at a good rate of speed when she came In contact with a snag, wilieh stove quite a hole in her hull just underneath the boiler. The captain swung her around and made for a bar which was reached before the boat bad time to sink, which It would have done as it had 23 inches of wa ter in the hold in four minutes after the time of snagging. The passengers were compelled to wait for about an hour until the Chirf came along and carried them on to their destination. Steamers came up Wednesday even ing to the relief, and by this time we suppose the disabled boat is on her wuy to the boneyard. Dead.-. We regret much to learn of the death of Miss Tryphenia Abbott, daughter Of M. II. Abbott, editor of the I'eiulleton Tribune. Deceased was tho oldest living sister of Mrs. it. K.

What is it That Pays. It is the penny saved nioro than tho penny earned, that enriches; it is the sheet turned when the first thread breaks that wears the longest ; it is the damp ers closed when the cooking Is done that stops the dollars from dropping into tho coal bin; It is the lamp or gas turned low when not In use that gives you plu money for the month; it Is the care in making the coffee that makes three spoonfuls go as far as a teacupful ordinarily; It is the prepay ing subscriber who gets the printer's. Blessing; It is the sncaklngcst boy ut school who gets the highest prizes. "Massacre op Glknuoe."

The lecture Is to be delivered to-morrow (Saturday) evening.
