Last Saturday evening great excite-
ment was caused at Tangent by the re-)
port of the drowning of Willis Knigbteu,
a sob of C P Knighton, in the Calipooia
river, near that place. It seems that
young Kalgltteu, a brother, and a son of
P A Meecs, were plowing in a Held near
the Calipoela, when Willis said he was
going down to the river to get a drink
of water ami started off I a that diree
lion. He did net return, but Mr Knigh
ton bad requested him to do something
in another field, and it was thought he
was there. When six o'clock came and
he failed to put in an appearance, search
was made him. Foot-marks were
found on the bank of the river wuera
some one had jumped down from s
higher bank, and it was, supposed they
were bis. They were traced to near
some logs ia the river. The general
opinion seems te be that lie gxt on the
logs aad tried te push them off, or some
thing of that nature, aad fell in. A hat
wbieh he wore was on Sunday morn
ing found about four miles down the
riyer, leaving little doubt that he was
drowned. The affair has cast a shadow
over Tangent, and particularly over the
boushold ef Mr Knighten, who has the
sympathy of everybody ia their sad
affliction. Willis was about seventeen,
and was a bright industrious young
man, who will be greatly missed by ail
whs knew him.

Mr S H Claughton, of Lebanon baa just
started an enterprise which, more than any
thing yet done will tend to increase the rep
utation of this summer resort. He will on
the 10th of this month Iwgin running a daily
stage line between this city and Sodaville,
taking passengers directly te the prings,and
also in connection with this will deliver the
mineral water found there, well bottled, not
only to Albany people but as well to the
citizens of Oregon, Washington Territory
aad California. Ia fact he proposes to make
a demand for it all over the Coast. The
water is now being drank regularly by hun
dreds of our citizens, who have found that
it contains soma splendid medicinal proper
ties, is pleasant to take, and cannot be "sur
passed as an appetizer. We are confident
that it will become more popular than the
famous Congress water, and it certainly has
better medicinal properties. Its qualities
can be seen by referring to the ad, of Mr
Claughton in another column. Our citizens
who wish a pleasant trip as well as a cheap
one should take a ride with M r Claughton
to the Mineral Springs, or, if they do not
ieel like going, let them make arrangements
with him to receive the mineral waters reg
ularly at their homes.

A committee consisting of E H Oeary, E N
Cosdit ami John Honneyman was appointed
to rsise aa endowment, if such a thing were
tossihle. They immediately weat to work,
aad so far have met with the most flattering
sueosss. W S I .ad I and 11 W orliitt, of

dition that $5 000 be raised in Linn oounty
and 930,000 from any source, within three
years, nevertheless interest at s ier cent to
lie paid oa the said sums during ths three
years. A thousand dollars from ether sooroee
was also raised la Portland, and iu this
county 9iT5 was raise! with little trouble,
upou nearly the same uouditioas as that of
Messrs Ladd and Corbilt, the parties sub-
uniting only psying ths interest for three
years from Jnly 1st of this year. After that
time if the additional 930.00J is raised the
amounts subscribed will lie paid and the

doubt that they will be obtained ami it cer
tainly is to be hoped that friends of the in
stitution will be prompt iu rendering assis
tance ia this direction as well sa increasing
the subscription io this cnty to st least
