A MAN A BO FT TOWN
One of the moet unassuming public Wett
ing in Albany during the summer It the
pump In f"ont of S. fi. Young's which has
become a public institution People visit it
from all parts ef the city. It suggests the
idea that a regular fountain, with numerous
lions mouths, would be a fine thing for the
city, and an excellent means by which some
publ ic spirited cltlwn could hand his name
down to posterity.
O
The M. A, T reads with satisfaction that
large numbers of Chinamen are locating in
the East. Come day there will be a niece
of pretty solid legislation on the Chinese
question. Experience is the best teacher
by odds.
O
The Man About Town visits no livelier
place in Albany than Cherry & Parke's
foundry. Over twenty-five men have been
employed lately getting out iron fronts,
warehouse machinery, etc. Their pay roll
has probably been double that of any other
establishment in the city. This U simply a
Kiting notice of a dese'rved Industry here,
lit up by rustle and without bonuses and
ubkbe
O
The Man About Town has read a big
paste board poster circulated by anti-prohibitionists,
which is quite unique. Beside
giving many quotations from the Bible,
such as "take a little wine for ths stomache's
sake," which bv the way have no bearing
on the present issue, it says something about
life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, as
an argument in favor of the saloon. This
it good ! it, because the liquor traffic
takes an nu.illv the lives of nearly one hun
dred thousand people. 2nd, it gives men
the liberty to murder, steal, debauch, whip
their wives, ruin their homes, corrupt poli
tics, fill our poor houses, insane asylums,
penitentiaries, etc , causing eight-tenths of
the crime of the world. 3rd. It brings
happ nets to prospects ruined ( ?), makes men
happ v with delirium tremens, blear eyes,
tatteted clothes. What joy it elves starv
ing children to see their father reel into
their home with curses and blasphemy
and how the wife's heart tills with joy when
she see him out of emp
his last cent in some hole of personal liber
ty where men are allowed to cut their own
throats bv sending down hem. not the
juice of the vine, but an adulterated, poison
ous, ruinous liquid, the enemy of good so
ciety and respectability.
O
The M. A. T. is informed that San Wa
keep Me new wife locked in her apart
ments. No other Celestials are allowed to
tee her, and on exhibiting her to several
Albany ladles he very cooly took out his
key, opened the door' to her room, allowed
them to look at her and then locked her in
again That kind of slavery may be al
lowed in China ; but in the u. ft. the pa
gans should oe made to conform to our cus
toms or suffer the penalties of the law In
the first place the Celestial is living with a
woman not his wife by the laws of the IT S.
It takes more than firing bombs to marrv
people here. In the second place even If he
were married he should never be allowed to
treat a wife in this manner under the stars
and stripes.

THE UABVEUT MOON
The harvest moon of yesternight
Wat United to orange red.
The oven blast, the vellow light
Of harvest day had tinged the night,
And chafed her face ;
Until the grace
Of Indian girl, with head bedlght
In copper jewela, to the tight,
Would seem a moon Inttead f
She mounted softly through the hate,
Her face turned full on me.
Her eye, a kindling, unfanned blase,
('Tit but the moon' I write to praise)
Looked me, daring not to gate
Too much on mc,
Lest others t.ee
Her look of love, enough to crate
The sanest heart, and to amaae
In lovert' lunacy !
The poet can not love the moon.
Hit head it all a whirl.
Hit Judat pen hat all too toon
Betrayed hit heart ; and now the boon
Of Luna's light and summer night
Nee ma, Oh ! too weak to theme the layt
That harp a loyal lover's praise
Of tropic eyes and pretty way t
She it my Indian girt !

Editor Drmotmt .'
The editor of the Benton Lender announc
ed some time since, in hit paper, that hit
columnt were alwaya open to replies from
thote he critlclted. Up to a certain point I
have no grounds of complaint against him
in this respect. But the manner hi which
he disposed of my two latt communication
and the liberties he took with a private lei
ter I tent him, at the same time, Induce me
to ask as a favor and in justice to myself a
republication, in full.in your columns. Your
generous fairness, hitherto, as a newspaper,
encourages me to venture further upon your
Indulgence. Of course the editor had the
right to reject altogether an article Intended
for publication in his paper. But he had no
right to accept a portion that,erhapa, which

accompanied by his son. He will play on
the original silver drum presented him in
1862 by Horace Greeiy. Besides this fea

The Benton Leader hat been telling tome
regular "fish stories" about the abundance
of honey dew in Benton county. But these
stories are all eclipsed by the one which we
relate : The other day the "devil" of the
Democrat office wat shooting at birds on
the telegraph wires near this city, the wires
being literally loaded down with birds
which seemed to be busily engaged pecking
at the wires. The "devils" curiosity led
him to inquire into this strange proceeding
of the birds, when he discovered that the
wire wat literally covered with honey dew
an eighth of an inch thick. Flies by the
millions had alighted on the wires and
- u aV . ee .ay e, at'
"ttucKiatt 01 course, inc mrot were
f taittng upon the flies. This condition of
the wires was made known to the telegraph
operator who readily accounted for it by the
fact that one of our business men had just
tent a dispatch to Yaquina Bay for a large
supply of honey.

city in its way. Ii should be kept up, and
made a stepping stone from our excellent
public schools. And right here it may be
remarked that the primary department hat
been an unnecestary expense lately. It
should never be kept up unlets self sup
porting, as it it no part of a Collegiate In
