Mr, Kellogg wa hira in Ohio, Jan. 23, 1S27, and came to the P.tciSc Coast in 13iS, and engaged in stock raising inColu coaaty, Calrfor .ia, for s me ti D3. Ha aftarw.ir.ls engngsd in mcrchan' dizing in Trinity cotraty, nndertho firm name nf Kolton & KeUogr. Ha had resided in B liter county six years, taming his attention t agricultural pursuits, and had the enviable reputation aman; Ms neighbors and those that knew him bost of Wing an honorable, oprijjht and industrious man. He loaves a wife and four boys and a host of friends to mourn his lost. The funeral took placo on Friday, in Silver City, Idaho, under the aus pices of the Masonic Fraternity, of which he was a worthy member. He had many friends ia this county in the vicinity of Brownsville, who will be pained to hear of his death. - Free-act OBccrs. The Frecinct Democratic nominatiSns in West Albany are as follows : For Justice ol the Feace, Dr. . Wm. Q. Stewart, and for Constable, M. H. Wallace. They are op posed respectively by VT. O. Falmer and O. W. Warren, each of uom moved into that prooinct during the past week so that in ,the event of their election they could hold the office. . . . - In East Albany the Damocratio nominations are- for Justice of the Peace, Dr. Wm. Lit ter, and for Constable, Goo. Humphrey. E. B. Purdont was nominated by the Republi cans for the office of Justice of the Feace for that precinct, but ha3 declined the nomina tion. F. M. Westfall is t'-ia coininsa for Constable. Another linn Connty Boy. Last weak we wrote an item about Frank Head, a Linn county boy, achieving some notoriety up at the Dalles by stealing a suit of clothes, and cow we have heard of another one of Linn's productions who is rivaling Head. His name is Levi Livingstone, and he has been arrested at Seattle for counter feiting United States money. He was ar rested here once en tho same cha-go, and escaped the penitentiary caly on soma tech nical point in law, and we hope the Sea tie folks will now send him down to Steilacoom for a term of rears. For several vears te has worked as a logger in this county and Benton, and is w,ell known as a dead beat. He hs a sister now residing in this eity. Harper" Magazine ThU magniScent magazina for May ha male its appearance. Every time "we look at a copy of it, w cannot help asking onrseli the question : How can a family get along without this periodical. It keeps step with time ia everything literature, art, history, eti, and evory month gives a summary ol all occurrences of a public nature. This month its contents are as varied as the tints of a rainbow, and any one can Sad within i:s coven something at least that will rcotc thaa repay them for their outlay in pnrcnat iig it. m ExenrsZoa to CjrvalHs.

Editor Dtmocrat : For reasons not anticipated I am compel'ed to postpone my appointments forpublic speak ing that appeared in the last Democrat. Please insert the following in your next issue: J. F.

Quite a number o' teams commence work on the grading next Monday and the work will be pushed unti completed. We beard tbe rumor that the iron for the road sailed from the East i weeks ago, Lnt are not sure whether it is or aot. Tbe Lebanon !Ja'l. .We smderstand that arrangements have at last been made so that W. B. Donees, th old and popular stage-driver between this eity and Lebanon, will still carry the mail on that route, be having bought the contract it n A. D. Barker. Mr. Deneca has beeb running on this route for several years, and by his fair and square dealing , and by paying strict atttention to the comfort of his paseen gers, he has gained hosts of friends who will g ladly welcome the news that he has again secured the contract for carrying the mails. The Sew Atlas. The finest thing we have seen lately, and something that is of great value to every body, is the new atlas of Linn and Marion conn ties which will be published by Edgar Williams & Co. this fall. The map.puig is now nearly completciJ, and the sketching for lithographic views will commence at once. These views will give a better i-lea of our buildings, farms, etc., than anything else, and oar people should not be backward in looking into the matter. Firemen's Pirate.

Th Odd Felior' railroad txenniufa kat Friday wat k grand ttooaM, being probably carried oat oa tha largett teal of anytbUg of tha ort Tr prcltttad on tha Ncrta PaciSo eoaat.

On tb way (oath we pick 1 up about a ear load at each ef th i tree stations of Tangent, Sbadd and Habwy, while another train which preceded a from Harrisburg carried about an equal number of X3uraionit from the upper part of Una and from the stations in Lane county. It U estimated that on the two train there wer f .-om 1200 to 1300 people j and coaaideriug tho long rid and the orowded atate ef the cars we never aaw a belter natured or sure jul y crowd than these "Three-Linker" and their friends. . Tha trip was made to Kosebnrg in a little over se ven hours, and there a couple of hour were pleasantly spent in frieudly greeting, marching in procession, - music, apeewbe, lunching, etc., and about threw o'clock p. m. the cars were again filled by tbe happy mul titude aud the trains bowled down the moun tain and through the valleys toward the starting point, reaching Albany about half past elevon at night, without an acident or incident to tliKtnrb ths pleasure or mar the fraternal harmony of the occasion. Tho trains under the personal snervisiia of that prince of railroad men, Superintendent B.-aadt, were managed with admirable (kill and scrupulous watchfulness, and the happy termination of the affair, with 240 mile of railroading, was a higher complimsat to his superior management than anything we could aay in his favor. About $1,800 worth tickets were sold, and aa the axpense were only about f 1,000, quite a snug sum is realized to the Odd Fal lows from this magnificent enterprise. To the PBntlemauly committee of arrange ments, Mrsarj. J. U. burkhart, D. M. Thomp son and Geo. F. Simpson, we are indebted for special favors and courtesies extended, also to Superintendent Brandt and the gentle manly employe of tbe O. A C. R. R for kindnesses shown us dariag the trip. tsw Ball Matter. That much-talked -of contest between Lias Base Ball Club, of this city, and the Univer sity Club, of Eugene, commenced in this city last Thursday afternoon, the first fain of the series being played at that tim. A. Cohen, of this city, was selected as umpire and seemed to give universal satisfaction. The game lasted two hoar and a half and was hotly contested. Following is the wore : IUOITI McQuin. e I 3d b Teoipletoa. 11... lampbcLl, p.... Mi.ler, Hainni. c .. UiU. 11 h Soiinl. r f at- vein, 1st . a Fires ! fire S It 10011 to a that Albany can come nearer having Bros, and then not hav any to amount I to muoh, than any other place In this State. Th departure of the tteamer for Portland itemed to b th signal for th breaking out of fires everywhere. Oa last Friday forenoon tho women at Mr. Swan's, (who lives in the first house cast of th foundry) hang op a part of their wcik'l washing in a room on the second floor of the house, and to make them dry faster put a pan of live coals under thorn. The consequence wa that the clothes did dry faster, and be came ignited, and a bed which was sitting olos by also took fire, and thing were lively around there for a little while. It was dis covered in time, and after removing the burning bed the fire was easily put out with out calling out tho department. On Sabbath evening, just after the first bell had rung, one of the chandelier) at the U. P. Church became unscrewed from tho rod and fell to the floor, breaking the lamps aud spilling the oil. The oil immediately caught firo, and before it could bo extinguished con siderablo damage was done. About half a dozen yards of carpeting was burned, and also th aisle carpvting, which bad been torn up and used to smother the flames. Five or six seats were also badly burned, the whole damage amounting to about $50. The fire bells gave tho alarm and ths engine started for the fire, but the boys soon learned they were not noeded, as the fire had boen extin guished through the effort of Edwin Hafion den, Georg Arnold and D. Irvin. Another lire, larger in proportion than any of th others, was discovered in John Isora'a residence, in the lower part of town, last Tuesday morning, by Clay Kulm, Jennings Montgomery and some one else. In going to work they noticed the smoke, aud upon try ing to enter at tbe front door were driven back by the flames. They then went in at the back door, and, organizing a bucket brig ade, soon put an extinguisher on the flame. Mr. Isom was absent from home, and tha family knew nothing of the fire until the men came in at the back door and told them. The lire caught in the front room in some way and will cost Mr. Isom somewhere near $150, having burned up a bed and bedding, curtains, etc, and damaged the building considerably. Fhe men who discovered it worked so bard that thay had no time to summon the depart ment, and consequently our boyi were saved a nice little ran. The last one that we know of occurred on Tuesday night Somebody wa evidently not very much in love with that old rookery of Mr. Foster's, which was being moved to its new location on Broadalbin street, and in ntler to get rid of it they threw coal oil on the inside wall, and then lighted a paper and threw it down on tbe floor. The paper had burned nearly up, and the fire had caught nicely in the wash-board when Officer Wat- kin discovered it and pnt a svp to the pro ceeding. look Here. We do not wish always to be growlmg tbout the irregularity of the mail between this place and Portland, but when letters and papers are carried by fully half the time without any sign of abatement, the thin is getting to be an intolerable bore. Just whose fault it is, that such a state of affuira exi-it, we know not or care not, but we do know wherein lie the remedv. If the V. S. Mail loe not stop going by, intended for this oSce, hell s going to pop Olficial decapita tion is the watchword now and onVial corpse will be thicker around Portland than Hie found the bang of a tnolasse cask in June. We mean it we're dead stjsar? op it, and we'll show some of yen oSiria! moguls what it is to fool and tamper with the L". f. M. Harrisburg t: Well, that language U ratb.er pointed, but in regard to the criminal irregularity of the mails cn the railroad, forbearance ha r-hnrwt ceased to be a virtue, and if a person in ever justified in being slightly profane the people of this valley are now. Hardly a day ps3cs but that some package of papers cr letter will go clear on through to Roseburg, instead of stopping at Albany, and fmin what the newspapers of the vailey tsy, enr city b nothing najre to complain of than any ether station on tl'-f roilttl. ftnlv about twn pVt 1 ago aa many as two hundred letters came to j C1GD- 1 M mPlre' the Albany office tied up in pickaye and j direct ol to Salom.
