THE COVNTY OCT OP DEBT., At the February term of the Linn nintv Commissioners Court the last iiayment was mailo on the long stand ing dent against mo uuuuijr uu istruotion of tue uoun nouse we (mount being $7,000. This puts the ounty.out of debt, and Dlaoes the offl- lial affairs of the county in such a lealthy condition that our taxes must hereafter bo lower than ever before. tthis will be gratifying to our people jii these stringent times and will cause fhem to heap much credit upon the flowed beads of our worthy and eco nomical county officers. We have a Lost excellent county board through out, and much credit Is due them for their fidelity ana devotion to ine puD lio Interests. We doubt if another touiity of like population on the Coast, tan show as prosperous and flourishing li condition as "Old Linn" now pre sents. With a $40,000 court house, k $10,000 jail and other necessary pub lie Improvements, all fully paid for, pod the prospects for lower taxes than ver before, we may Indeed congratu late ourselves upon our happy con li ilon. Long may our grand old county Jims prosper as the green bay tree as It will be ever sure to do so long as the people continue to keep their public hftairs in the hands of the Democracy.

McKnight 'on Tuesday received from below a 1 whopper of a fish, and is now selling Jit out at his market. The flsh is of the tsturgeon species, about 82 feet, 8 Inches Jlong; about 13 feet, 4 inches in circum iference, at Its largest part, and weigh f ed, when knocked green from the tree, nnmKtn lilra tarn fhotiuanil. thrfift aUUlCMUU(J VTTU 1 - hundred and fifty-seven pounds, four ounces, thirteen pennyweights and two drams. It may have varied a little from these dimensions, but as this is flsh stoiy, we are not expected to be exactly accurate. It is due to our selves to state that we do not make this statement under oath. Harper's Monthly Is undoubtedly the very best of all the standard peri odicals, being replete la useful infor mation and firBt-class literature. It is much more voluminous than any of the other magazines, and its illustra tions are simply inimitable, while on ly the first writers of the country are engaged In its service. As a family magazine It is at the top of tho list, and should be given the preference over all others. Painting. Wadsworth fc Parks have opened out a shop just back of Behwald' boot and shoe store, und are now ready to receive orders for house or aign painting. Wadsworth 4s an old resident of this place, and there is no use in "puffing" him to any great extent, as he has put up enough i signs in this city that testify to his ar ! tistic skill. They guarantee the best . of work, and will attend to orders from the country promptly. f Druos and Medicines. A few 1 weeks ago John Foshay bought out 1 the entire stock of drugs, etc., owned by G. F. Settlemier, and is now run ning that business in connection with his book store. Mr. Foshay is an old nd experienced apothecary, having owned and controlled a drug establish ment in San Francisco for a number of years, and we bespeak for him a liber al share of the public patronage. FOUND DU AD. A Dead Body Discovered Floating fit the Santiam at Jefferson . A telegram came to this city last Wednesday evening, conveying the news that the body of a man had been found floating in the Santiam, on the Linn county side; near Jefferson. There being no Coroner in this county the Sheriff went down yesterday noon to take charge of the body. . No par ticulars have been received. THE SANTIAM TO BE BRIDGED. The Lebanonifes and their imme diate neighbors are buzzing around lively How and soliciting subscriptions for the erection of a bridge across the Santiam at that place. We understand that over $2,000 have been subscribed in Lebanon alone, and it Is expected that as much more will be contributed by the people on the other side of the river who are even more interested in the project than the Lcbanoners. It Is estimated that ten thousand dollars will bo required to build the bridge, half of which is to bo raised by sub scription and the county authorities asked to appropriate the other half. This is a most important enterprise, and should meet with tho fullest en couragement and aid by all parties. May it be p-ished forward to an early completion is our fervent wish. Beautiful Works of Art. Mr. J. M. Fisk Is now canvassing this city for the sale of Prang's chromos, of which he has a most superb collection and a crent variety. Prang's are the standard nioturrs in that most lieauti ful art, being up to the highest state of perfection; and Mr. Fisk lias tho finest of Prang's copies.. They are of suffi ciently large variety to suit the taste or conform to tho purse of any one. hence Mr. F.'s sales are very extensive. Ho also takes orders for picture frames of all designs and patterns, which he supplies at low rates. When not can vassing ho can be fouud at the St. Charles Hotel, in this city. Don't fail to see his pictures. Bam. May, at Harrisburg, is now re ceiving and opening a finer stock of spring and summer goods than ever opened in that place; and we respect fully auggeat to our readers in that action of country to call at an early da; and secure the cream of the stock. 8am, is one of the most excellent gen tlemen In the county, and is always ready to respond to the demands of his customer.

You ought to have seen the look of pride on that Gospel Bldge father's faco last Satur day when he boxed his Bons' ears for impudence and tho lad turned to him and majestically remarked: "Observe me, my honored father, when I re mark that I was reading tills morning that the drum of the ear is one of the most sensitive things in tho human system. A sudden blow on the car is liable to produce deafness, anu ine practice of cuffing ohihlren cannot be too severely censured. It is but a relic of that dark period When a man with a wart on his nose was put to deatli as a sorcerer." Teacheu's Institute. Tho Linn County Teachers' Institute met at tho School House in tills city yesterday and organized by electing Jaa. K Weatherford Presid3nt, and Loandcr Liggett Secretary.

Mr. Dill Is a pleasant agreeable gentleman, and can just naturally do more busi ness than any other native of the clas sic shades of the Osago (hat we ever saw.

Editor Democrat: My object iu writing this piece, is to show that In our Republic, the road to fame aud wealth is open alike to all. Here we have no nobility of caste, no long line of titled ancestors to place us forward in the road to a lofty standing in society. The boy, whose name heads this article, was born of poor, but worthy Dutch parents, In Green briar County, W. V. He had five broth ers and two Asters, all of them on an average with the masses around. John, however, from his boyhood, showed marked lines of character. He was of noble and commanding appearance, handsome In person, had a strong will, aud was firm in everything right and proper. His parents could give him only a limited education. At the age of 18, ho was elected Lieutenant of the Militia, and at 20 was elected Captain of the same company. It was about this time that his lofty mind aspired to a higher position in life, than that of most of his associates around him. The bent of his lofty genius was to wards the study of law. He applied all bis means to the acquisition of legal knowledge. He made wonderful profi ciency In his studies. He soon attract ed general attention, and was admitted into the very best society in the town where he attended college. But the great trouble with him was how to pursue his studies without accepting loans of money which he was loth to do. "But where there's a will therB's a way." :.' From the age of 19 years, he had be come acquainted with a oharming and worthy young lady, who, like himself was born of poor parents. Their love grew with their years, and became in tensified. Neither one had confessed to the other the state of his or her heart in the case. Yet all discerning persons knew how matters were be tween them. The young lady taught school for a livelihood, and was highly esteemed by her patrons. Captain Bowyer could not think for u" moment to break off his studies aud take charge of S family. At this time a Scotch man some twenty miles distant, paid a visit to Miss Julia Porter the school mistress of whom I am writing and stated to her that his age was 70 years, lie had no relatives in the United States, aud was laboring under the gravel, gout, and a diseased liver. He had been a money lender in the United States for forty years past, and being strict in business, he had but few friends. Ho was worth ten thousand pounds sterling money mostly then in cash, and the remainder in well se cured bonds. Ho had often soen Miss Porter, and always heard favorable re ports of her goodness of heart. If she would marry him and be to him a friend a lover he did not expect of her he would make over to her in ab solute right, one-half of his fortune on the day of their marriage, and the remainder to her at his death. She listened to his manly proposal, and told him to return in one month, and sho would givo him a decisive answer. She wrote to Captain Bowyer a full ac count of the proposal of Mr. McDon aldthe Scotchman aud requested his friendly advice. His answer was, that iu all circumstances of the case, sho would do well to marry the old gentleman, and if so, to treat him with all imaginable kindness and due respect. At the same time the Cap tain assured her that his own wedding day was far in tho future. At the end of three mouths, after Mr. McDonald had tastefully fitted up his neat home and its surroundings, ho and Miss Por ter were married. The Captain drew up all the writings lu the case, and It may be supposed they were an u. ft.. Never was any old man better treated than McDonald was by his beautiful warm-hearted nnd true wife. In one year more, lie ceased to be able to ac company her In their family carriage to the houses of their friends. For two years he kept his bed, but all that medical skill could do was done for him. He always stated that he believ ed his wife was the best woman on earth, and that he fully approbated his courso in making her his sole heir. He closed his eyes in death iu just three years from tho time of his marriage, It was saiei that Captain llowyer lacked no money duriug those three vears, with which to defray his expen ses at College. Well so it only proved the saying true, that "a friend in need is a friend indeed." For six months after, did there any letters pass be tween Mr. Bowyer and Mrs. McDonald Whoso business was It if there did I Mr. Bowyer had completed his colle giate course, and received Ills diploma. He was one of the best lawyers In Vlr gtrtia. HIS established himself in a flourishing city in the old Dominion, and rose to be Chancellor. The most important land coses In Va. were In trusted to his care. He frequently re ceived five hundred dollars for a writ ten opinion on contested land cases iu the Court of Chancery., ; ' ; ' ' , But did he forget the wido McDon ald in his days of fame and prosperity? That would haye been very cruel. But would not a wife clog his business pu.nuits? Ho did not see It In that light. In about seven months alter Mrs. McDonald's widowhood began she became ill due form, Mrs. Bowyer. I saw my esteemed friend the Chan cellorsoon after his marriage, aud congratulated him on his bright fu ture of life. , Wealth, love anil fame, were the boon and blessing of this liap nv counle.

The girls who tend tables at Connect icut fairs, and sell kisses at 10 cents a kiss won't givo three for a quarter. Avoid annoyance; be cautious and kindly. It is not safe to trample upon so humble a thing as a bit of orange peel. If a man drops down upon a chair where a bad boy has left a bent pin, he will rise like a phcenlx from its ashes. It Is noted that all great humorists are sober and sedate, with a melancholy cast of countenance. F'rinstance, look at our Balsam. When a Comstocker wants to dis parage another he says: "When you thoroughly prospeot him, you'll find no bonanza in him." The Linn County Teachers' Institute met in this city yesterday, with a full attendance and was in session when we went to press last evening. Rov. Mr. Stratton, the new Presbyte rian preacher who has just arrived here from the East, seemsaa pleasant gentle man and Is evidently au able divine. Yesterday was All Fools' Day, s look to see many a younker limping about this morning with his toe tied up in a rag saturated with coal oil and gin. A littlo Gospel Ridge girl, on re turning trom a children's party was asked If she had a good time. She an swered: "Yes, but there wasn't much boys there." W. A. McPherson has sold out the Plaindcalcr and gone to keeping a ho tel in Roseburg. We'll bet there wont be any very large procession ofiock roacnes aoout Macs tame. 7 ' Our Balsam has lately been noticing a thing or two, and be Bays the best way to play billiards is to sit on a high chair and make remarks, because then you are cortain to win, however the balls may circulate. One fortunate thing in being a king is, that kings never have to play editor and dish up five columns of locals when there Is isn't anything to write about but a hungry New Foundland pup and a Methodist revival. Easter Sunday was the beastliest nay of the winter. It blew a perfect gale all day, and snowed, rained, hailed, sleeted and cut up moro didoes gener ally than an army of defeated candi dates at a political convention. ThoExchange Hotel, under the excel lent management of Hale Backensto, is fast arising to the dignity of a llrst- class house. With that and tho St. Charles, Albany now has two of as good houses as any city in Oregon. Helen M. Cooke writes that "kisses on her brow are tho richest diadems a woman's soul aspires." And yet a fel low who kisses a lady on her brow while her rosy Hps are making motions like a patent clothes-wringer, is not the man for the position. "Slippery Jim" sends us an Item, but as we don't know Mr. S. Jim and he doesn't tell us what his other name was before he left the States we can't print his item. The real name must accompany all communications to in sure their publication. Your paper costs you less thap six cents a week; less than a diligent hen earns In a week at the market price of eggs; less than the cost of a cigar a day; less than a single glass of Porter. A penny a day can be saved in many a way better thanstoppingyourcountry paper. M. C. Felu, tho armless painter or Antwerp, is now copying some pictures in Kensington museum, London. The facility with which he manages his brush with the right foot, while hold ing his palette with the left, Is marvel ous. Exchange. We think we have seen a specimen picture painted with tills Felu's, foot. It was sold by a ped dler in tills city ttie other day, and looks just as If It had been done that way. The foot hod evidently been used with 'mar vellous facility,' spreading the paint most copiously about. It Is confidently believed that It was not a Santiam school boy who stuck his teacher oil the following essay on Sticks": "There are a great many sticks in the world some big and some little. Some are sticky and some are not. There are largo sticks of wood, nil that is one kind of sticks, and there are little bits of sticks. Some people, when they are handling money, It sticks to their pockets, so that is an other kind of sticks. Sometimes when a horse is going along in the muddy weather lie gets stuck; m that Is an other kind of sticks. That Is ail I can think of now, no that Is another kind of sticks." For Farmers and Housekeepers. We will hereafter publish on our Fourth pago a column of agricultural and household matter of special Inter est to farmers and to farmers' wives. This will be a valuable feature pf our kpaper. The Sunday Welcome is the title of the new paper just started in Port land, and edited by Jas. O'Meara.
