DEATH OF FRED COLE- The following sad news of the death of a young man, just in the prime of life, is from the Oregonian of the 22nd inst. Fred was born, we believe, in the house just north of the M. . church, and his father, Hon. Geo. E. Cole, now postmaster of Portland, was in the hardware business in this city in an early day. The sad tidings falls with crushing effect upon many friends of the family in this community, who deeply sym pathize with the grief-stricken father and sister, in this sad hour of bereavement : Yesterday afternoon many persons were startled by the announcement that George Jr. Cole, familiarly known as a red Cole, was dead. On inquiry it was learned that his death was caused by use of morphine, taken to allay nervous excitement to which he was subject. Some years ago he received an accidental wound from a pistol, the shot passing through his body. For a long time his life was despaired of. While he was in that condition the use of morphine became necessary as an anodyne. His recovery was very slow, and the use of morphine was continued be after a time administering it himself. The habit of it grew upon him, and for relief to his nervous S3'stem, which never recovered from the shook occasioned by the wound, he was accustomed to use morphine at intervals, taking it by hypoder mic injection. Like other forms of the opium habit, the use of morphine is always extremely difficult to break off. On Satur day night he retired to bed as usual about 9 o'clock, his residence lieing with his grand mother, Mrs. Cardwell, on Alder street, near Eleventh. Mr. Charles Cardwell was room ing with him. About 10 Mr. Cardwell en tered the room and went to bed. Nothing unusual was observed. Shortly after 11, however, he was awakened by the difficult and stertorous breathing of his roommate. Aid was summoned and Fred, was aroused, though with some difficulty. He said he hail only taken a little morphine, as he was often accustomed to do, in rder to obtain relief from a nervous unrest, and begged everybody to go to lied and he would be all right in the morning. Dr. W. B. Cardwell at once feared from his appearance that the matter was more serious ; so he with the father of the patient began using vigorous means to prevent fatal results. By 5 o'clock yesterday morning they thought the danger was passed. But after a few hours there was a decided change towards alarming re sults. A call was made for additional med ical assistance, but it was without avail, and at a quarter to twelve the patient pass ed away. It is probable that he had made use of the morpine while not in such posses sion of his facilities as would induce him to have proper care of consequences. Perhaps he had used it a second time while already Under the partial influence of it. At all events it is manifest that he had used it while not sufficiently on his guard. He was a thoroughly honorable young man, very attentive to business, and held a place of large responsibility in the postolfice, where he ilischarged his duties well. He was twenty-one years of age on the 6th of March last. The burial will take place at 2 o'clock p. m. to-day, though we understand there will be no public funeral. In consepuence of this sad event the money order office will be closed after 12 o'clock to-day, and the general postoffice will be closed from two to half past five. Returned. W T. Huffman, Wm. Mac? kej and other members of R. A Haber sham's coast survey party, returned the latter part of last week, Mr. Habersham having successfully completed the survey of Rogue River from Scottsburg to its mouth. Mr. Huffman, while at Roseburg, said it was currently reported that the Alex. Duncan, the staunch little steamer that has been do ing such a noble work in . opening up the harbors along our coast, and giving our peo ple market facilities, had been lost at Port Orford, in the fog. The account was pub lished in the Roseburg Independent, but the Oregonian of last Monday, says that the story of the steamer's loss is quite improba ble. We sincerely hope that it will turn out to be an unfounded rumor. Since the above was in type, we find the following in the Oregonian : It appears that our djsbelief in the report that steamer Alex. Duncan had been totally wrecked near the mouth of Rogue river or the entrance to the Coos bay harbor was well founded. Yesterday Mr. Z. J; Hatch, the agent here, received a dispatch, as follows, from Capt. Carroll : Eureka, CaL, Sept. 22, 1879. 2. j. Hatch : Broke one shaft. Will not be in Portland before 8th of October. No tify agents on Sound. Carroll. Separator Burned. Last Friday even ing a little after 9 o'clock, the separator belonging to Mr. J. M. Currier, of this county, was burned. During the day the machine had been threshing for James Cain, on the farm of Mr. Currier, and no firt had been about the machine no straw burned. Just as some of the men were retiring for the night, at the barn, they disovered a light at the thresher, some four hundred yards distant. They ran thither, in great haste, and succeeded in saving the patent measurer, the tool box, two wagons, (one on either side of machine), and about two hundred bnshers of wheat, all of which, together with the horse-power, would undoubtedly have been destroyed but for the timely discovery of the fire. The fire is supposed to have been tie work of an in ndiary, although there no Cine to the petratoT. Hanging is too good for the scamp who would perform such a dastardly act Mr. Currier has an old separator which was repaired and took the place of the one ourned. Close Call. Last Saturday morning, while Peter Crini , the engineer at Cant horn's steam grain elevator, was oiling the ma chinery, he came near meeting with a seri our accident, in like manner as Mr. Cope land, heretofore mentioned in the Gazette. While oiling some portion of the machinery, Mr. Crim's overalls came in contact with the keys of the tumbling rod, which strip ped them front him, in the. twinkling of an Ave. Onlv for the trivmcr w:tv nf th vr- Alls some terrible, if not fatal, casualty migftt nave betauen Mr. J. f rom the fre quency of similar accidents, it seems, to an outsider, very mnch like the result of care lessnc8 on the part of those connected with machinery.

W Souther is still with them. At a regular communication of Corvallis Lodge No. 14 A. F. & A. M., held last V ednesday evening, a committee was ap pointed to draft resolutions of condolence upon the death of Bro. John Jessup. We took a spin to Albany, last Monday. While there we were pained to learn that Gen. M. V. Brown continued in a very crit ical condition, from hemorrhage of the lungs. Major Thompson, of Portland, has called a meeting of the citizens to take steps for giving Gen. Grant a grand reception ujion his arrival in that city. Wallis Nash, Esq., has so far recovered from his late illness as to start for the Upper Soda Springs, last Monday. He expects to return the first of next week. Hon.

Mr. Gerber has one of the best gardens in this upper country, and a great variety of fruits and berries. It keeps Mrs. E. A. Knight pretty busy, this week, to attend to her milliner store and the cabinet shop also. Her husband, Mr. August Knight, went to Portland, last Tuesday, on business. We acknowledge receipt of a complimen tary ticket to a grand promenade concert and ball, by Geo. Wright Post, G. A. R., on the first opening of the Mechanic's Pa vilion, on Monday night, Oct. 13, 1879. The HeahUburg (Cal. ) Enterprise, Dem., in commenting upon the late election in that State, says : " We met the enemy, and we are theirs, ihe itepublicans have stuck together well, and make a clean sweep of the State." The Daily Talk, Salem, came to hand, last Monday, double size, and will so con tinue till after the Fair. It is a live paper, and a first-class advertising medium. The proprietors, Messrs. Conover, are full of business. Sheriff King returned from Prineville last Sunday afternoon, miking a very quick trip, having left home on the previous Mon day. SoL has good teams, and knows how to drive them. We are informed that Miss E.

Messrs. Henry Gerber and T. Donohue have just furnished us some fine specimens of granite from their quarry, west of the city, to take the place of decaying oak blocks undei our office. This stone should come into general use for building purposes. It is of superior quality, very hard, and sus ceptible of fine polish. Col. T. Egentou Hogg i3 now in the city. He arrived from San Francisco last week. We regret that his health continues poor. His step is not so elastic as usual, and his wan features, despite his attempts to appear cheerful, indicate protracted and severe ill ness. We sincerely hope, ere long, to see him entirely restored to usual health. Rev. J. A. Hanna reports the weather very pleasant at Yaquina Bay. The salmon run is not so large as usual, at this season of the year. It is generally thought that the dam on the Yaquina river seriously affects the salmon prospects of the Bay. The same is true of the Indian fish traps on the vari ous small streams, which prevent the ascen sion of salmon. Rev. J. A. Hanna arrived from Yaquina Bay last Tuesday, in excellent health. He was en route to attend the meeting of the Synod of Columbia, which meets at Seattle, W. T., on the 2d of October, Rev. E. N. Condit, of Albany, Moderator. This Synod embraces the State of Oregon and Washing ton Territories. New Firm. The new firm of J. Senders & Co., have opened a splendid assortment of general merchandise, at the old stand of Sheppard, Jaycox & Co. Mr. Senders has been so long a resident of this city, and is so well known throughout the county, that he needs no commendation at our hands. Mr. Sichel has been connected with one of the leading business houses in Portland, and is a thorough going business man, full of life and activity. They understand the value of printer's ink, and will succeed in business. They make a-specialty of ladies' dress goods, trimmings, etc. Should they not have just what you want, they will order it from Port land or San Francisco, at once. Give them a call. Surprise Party. There was a pleasant, surprise party given at the Occidental Hotel, last Thursday evening, on the anniversary of Mr, J. C- Polly's birth-day. We drop ped in a few minutes, about 9 P. M. , and the young folks, and some of the old folks, also, were tripping the "light fantastic." Mine " host and hostess" of the Vincent Hoase, seemed to be rather leaders in the fun. We understand a very nice lunch was served after which the party dispersed all well pleased with the evening's enter' tainment. Official Visit. B. P. Cardwell, who has for the past fifteen years been connected with the U. S. Revenue department of the northwest coast, with a residence at Port land, gave us a friendly visit last Monday. For several years Mr. Cardwell's district embraced Eastern Oregon and Washington, but now he has supervision of Oregon south of Multnomah county. He arrived from the south by private conveyance on Sunday. Early Monday morning he was to be seen busy at work, and before noon had visited every business establishment in the city, and left for Albany in the afternoon, pre paratory for taking the stage the next day for Lebanon. Few men can get through with the amount of business that Mr. Card well does. His promptness and accuracy have rendered his services almost indispen sable to the department. He is a man of sterling integrity and worth. Having cross ed the plains with him in 1852, and been in partnership for five years, we claim to know whereof we speak. May his shadow never grow less. Willamette University. Last week we received a very neat circular oi the above institution of learning, at Salem, executed by Himes the Printer, but, inadvertantly, failed to make mention of the same. The University, notwithstanding the many pre dictions ot failure, opened on the 15th inst. , under the most favorable auspices. The coining year bids fair to be one of the most prosperous in the history of the institution. The Faculty are as follows : C. E. Lam beit, acting President, and Prof. Ancient Languages and Literature ; R. W. Hill, A. M., Prof, of Mental and Moral Science ; Prof, of Mathematics and Natural Science ; Jennie E. Dawne, A. M., Precep tress and Teacher of Modern Languages ; Mary E. Robinson, B. S. , Principal in Acad emic Department; Nellie Hall, B. M. Teacher of instrumental music. Warehouse Disaster. The Spring Hill Farmers' warehouse, in the northern part of Benton county, tipped over last Saturday night, in consequence of the foundation giv ing way. It contained about twelve thou sand bushels of loose grain at the time. Some four thousand bushels will be stored in the Rothel warehouse, near by, and the remainder has been hauled to Albany. The exact loss has not yet been ascertained, ex cept the house which is a total loss estima ted at $2,000. W. A Wells of this city was the principal loser by the causalty. Oregon State Fair. The nineteenth an nual exhibition of the Oregon State Agri cultural Society, commences at Salem, next Wednesday, the first day of October, and continues nine days. Should the weather prove favorable, it will l.e one of the, grand est exhibitions ever given in the State. The managers have spared no pains or expense to make it a grand success. We are indebt ed to Preident Wilkins and Secretary Waite for "complimentary" ticket, and expect, to be there. .Notice.
