Good roads and brik teams soon brought us Into the upper part of the valley, which Is a beautiful diversified landscape. On leaving the valley we followed up and im mediately oo the verge of of Annie creek canyon, which In some pieces ia Immeueeiy deep and abrupt; per. hapa 600 feet almost perpendicular; very picturesque end reminding one of the wonderful Colorado.

Underneath a thin sarfdee soil t- the vslley below, Is a layer of 8 or 10 feet of volcanic ashea, which evidently came from this hole in the ground. While camped at the lake, we had WW4 w,wvw vt t lay about In great banks, or carrying ll"u !' "F i. . i ... ii hill, for camp use.

During tbe second day of our sojuro, three of us climbed from the rear to the top of t-e most rugged and precipatoua pinnacles of towering rock cliffs fnat ever stood still under our feet.

Get down on all fours, and creep very cautiously to the veiy brink, where you can spit a round 1000 feet right down into the topmost branches of lofty piuee, and at thf same tiojo can lurn a ston irh y ur fuel that wli roll and tumble with grat velocity for half a mile. At every wave the very mountain seems to tremble as if it would topple over. I tell you It's grandly awful. No one can realize the very peculiar sens. tion unlit they have actually experienced it. In trying to Ieep during the following night we would imagine ourselves losing our hold, or tumbling head long into the abyss below. The water of the lke is very clear, with a medium temperature, and, although in a very cold region, on account of its very great depth, has nevor In the knowledge of man, been frozen over.

From evidence educed at the cor. oner's Ir.queet It appears that aha left her home about 8 o'clock Sunday morning, saying she was going to town to return some sewing. One of her ns "ffrro 1 to go and cawh a pony for her to ride, but ahe refused It, say ing she would rather walk. The hoy, however, went after the pony, aud when be returned she was gene. The next seen of her waa by J. H. Gentry, who Uvea two miles from the Kirk ranch. From an upper wlodow In his house, Mr. Gentry aaw a wo man (now supposed to have hewn Mrs Kirk) at the house of A. & Wells, about a quarter of a mile distant. She went to the well and on her re turn went loto tfee house ; then came out and seemed to set something on the ground; stood in the doorway for a few minutes; then appealed to pick up eomethlng, and disappeared with In the house. Mr. Welle and family were absent at the time. About 10 oVIock he rat ur nod, and oo entering the bouee found Mrs. Kirk prostrate upon the floor in an ineeosihle eoedl lion.

They do not attack the vetoes oc tbe ground tbat tbe claim waa a jnat one, aod aboutd be allowed. Tbie republican argument, if it means any thing, means that aa long as a atei ia a ureal! and insignificant one, it ought to he allowed to be paid unchallenged, but if a bill allowtog very large penaioo was a steal, it ought to he vetoed. Tbis sems to represent a true feeling among tbe leaders of the Republican party in congresa as to tbe policy to be puraued in disposing of public funds. President Cleveland has tbe true policy in tbis matter.

Tbe Uerald-Iitminatar is right when it Bay a that tba citisma ot Lion eouu'y need a bridge at WaUiIoo," and also, ' that it ia all right and proper." We think so too, for we have a petition before tbe county court of nearly four buodred names, aod among tuose names are eome of Una oouoiiea' bet citizens. that S4td, when tbey aigned U, that we ought to have a bridge, that th-v would ike to ae a flounabiug Im' nuig mti all of tbat abundant wati r osir thi the Sautiam afforda at tine i.Uc. u to good use, eto.

Now all we ask is tha main span which oau ha built for about $3,000 or not to eg. ceetl $3,500, as parties have publically stated that tbey would build it for tbat amount. We, tbe citizens of the vicin ity of Waterloo propose ;o build the approsches by subscription.

" Now friend Albany, we join ith you in saying that you need a idge, and tbat we need a bridge, and need it badly, and also that this count iy needs public improvements, etc., and then such a tide of emigration will flow into Linn county ni was never thought of, aod they will come to tav, and will help to make Linn county the barrier county of the state of Oregon. Now may it please the Hon. county court to grant us a bridge, and we will how you in a very few years what a fine little town will grow up in onr midst. These are the sentiments of tie honest true-hearted farmers, met chants and mechanics, whose names you find on onr petition. Yours, J. B. Wirt.
