Powell, State Superintendent 'of Public Instruction, gav; a lecture on edu tational matters, at the College, on Tuesday, 26th inst. The speaker dwelt upon the im portance of Institute work, and the special education of teachers, stating that he was here in the interests of a Teachers' District and County Institute to be held in Corvallis during the holidays. His remarks were listened to with close attention. Educate the rising generation, the men and women of the netr future. Education is the foun dation of every good government ; and that is the best education which will make good citizens rapidly and effectually in accordance with the laws of God, which always have reference to the greatest good and the most truth. A large number of students was present, to whom the closing remarks were addressed.. Form s good character at school character is the measure of every man and woman. Let your aim be a good character, so that after you have done the part assigned, that your only care shall be, how you may per form the greatest amount of good of which your being is capable. The speaker related some incidents in student-life in connection with his remarks upon forming a good char acter, which were very impressive. Prof. Powell is actively and earnestly engaged in the educational work of this State, and will be present and assist in the Teachers' Insti tute. The time for holding the Institute Will be published in our next number. ' ) i An Important ISdi'stry. In another column, we call tlie attention of our far mers to the importance of looking after their orchards, and to the fact that apples will soon be an important item in our ex ports. Since that article was in type, we have seen private letters from England, to Mr. Waliis Nasli, informing him that the apple crops there are short and the demand for dried fruit immense. In addition to this, we will state, that the Corvallis Fruit company received orders, recently, for fif teen tons of dried fruit, and Mr, Oeo. Sill, Agent of the company, is now in Linn coun ty, purchasing fruit with which to fill that order. Many places in Benton county, not suitable for wheat growing, would produce splendid orchards; and fruit, for years to come, will find a ready market at remunera tive prices. Messrs. Waliis Nash and James Read man. of our city, have purchased the right of three counties for the Plummer fruit driers, foreseeing the demand, in the liear future, for dried fruit. They will not only supply farmers with these excellent driers, but they will buy your fruit, paying the highest market price. They have the money to pay down for what they buy. Bal Masque.

The usual union services were held in the Presbyterian church, in this city, yesterday, the resident pastors all taking part in the same. The sermon was preached by Rev. . No notice was made of these services in the Gazette, last -week, from the fact that the arrangements were not perfected until after our going to press. The people of Corvallis and Benton County have much to be thankful to Al mighty God for, the past year. No epidem ic or contagious disease has visited us ; our harvests have been abundant, and peace and plenty have crowned our labors. Surely the Lord has 1 een very good to us, whereof we should rejoice and be glad. Bear CAPTctrEry . We have been shown a private letter, received by Mrs. H. W. Vincent, from her mother, at Newport, giv ing a very graphic description of the capture of a very large bear, which called into action almost the entire population, male and female, old and young.

H. W. Smith, Salem, Oregon. Last Tuesday Capt. W. J. Robertson dropped into our sanctum, after an absence of about nine years. He notices many inr-' provements in Corvallis during his absence.

A Hemphill has just finished one of the finsst lot of saddles ever offered in this market.' He uses the celebrated Lebanon Tree, so popular among stock men in California, and the best Santa Cruz skirting. Several stock men in East ern Oregon are using his make of saddles,' and every one gives perfect satisfaction. They are the best, and most substantial stock saddles in use hand-made. Call and see them. FAVORABLE MENTION- It is so oldom that the Portland dailies have anything favorable to say about Cor vallis, that the follewing complimentary re marks by Mr. Foley, correspondent of the Standard, are duly appreciated, and we take pleasure in reproducing them. In bis Cor vallis correspondence of the 2lrh inst, Mr. Foley says: The work on the West Side railroad is rapidly progressing and the ceigh of the iron horse is expected to be heard in this city about Christmas. Mr. Wm. Mast, with a number of workmen, is busily en gaged constructing A station house which will compare favorably with any between here and Portlanii. It is the general expec tation that Corva'lls will be, at no distant day, one of the greatest shipping points cn the Willamette. The construction of the Yaquina Bay Railroad will commence at this point next spring. This, with the ex tension of the Vest Side road, will give trade a lively impetus, and Corvallis will, next Summer, be one of the best business centers in Oregon. The following additional cheering words are from the Daily Oregouian of the 26th inst. : The grading on the westside road is now completed to Corvallis; ties have been laid to the Luckiamute river, and a sufficient num ber have been forwarded to the front for tbe entire distance. The ship Eliza Mc Neil, from Philadelphia, bearing enough rails to finish the track, has arrived at As toria, and part of her carixo will be lightered to this city without delay. The ship also brings a 32 ton Baldwin locomotive, and some frog and other supplies. Hairing unlooked-for delays and tossible accidents, the people of Corvallis can promise themselves a Christmas " ride on the rail " within' the limits of their own town. Blue Ribbon. Hon. James Chambers, of Kings Valley, add res sod the Corvallis Bine Ribbon, at the Evangelical church, last Sat ur lay evening. 'd Miss Nettie Speneer re cited the " Rum filer's Sign," in a masterly style. The attendance was very good, and the music somewhat improved. Why is it that the executive committee does not fr nish prnrtmm'is for the Gazette? The eveiiings are long now, and if an interesting programme w; s presented the attendance would always he lare. Nor is the time to do good, effective work in the temperance Our friend, the Doctor, narrates the story of a 37oung lady who had swallowed some leeches in a draught of water, or at any rate, thought she had done so. She complained of dizziness and imagined the leeches were moving about inside her head. The Doctor conjectured the trouble was in the brain and not in the stomach, as she had just graduated successfully from the University. Feeling satisfied that Frese's Hamburg Tea wa tbe proper remedy iu either event, he prescribed a few doses and she was all right in a couple of days. SPEcniEN Books. Thanks to Messrs. Miller fc Richard, of the Scotch type foun dry, Edinburgh. London, Toronto nod San Francisco, for two fine sjiwimcn books one of o:it, end tbe other of book, newspaper and job types. Theee boo'M contain many late designs and stylus of type, and should find a place in every well regulated printing office. Fastest Time. The steamer Ohio made the trip from Karrisburg to Portland in thir teen hours and thirty-five minutes, includ ing landings. Captian U. B. Scott was at the wheel. This is the fastest time on re cord between tbe two points. Goon News. The Portland Standard of the 13th inst., says : Capt. J. C. Ainsworth yesterday received the good news that 125 miles of railroad iron had been purchased by Mr. Villard, anil that the first shipment would be made on tbe loth inst., which is intended for the construction of a road down the Colombia from' Wallula to Celilo. We are further unformed that it is the intention of the Company to have the road completed in time f r the Fall trade of 1880. The magnitude of the trade in Eastern Oregon and Washington Territory has necessitated this step, as it is impossible for the Compa ny to rely on the river to move the great amount of freight, and while they have a fleet of steamers amply sufiicient to do the business, the uncertain stage of the river makes it unreliable and dangerous, and sub jects the Company to great loss.

BOSCHEE'S GERMAN SYRUP can now be purchased right at home, it is the most successful preparation ever introduced to our people.

The Centaur LINIMENTS hare relieved more hod-ridden Crip ples ; healed more frightful 70ixnds, and saved more valuable animals than all other liniments, ointments, oils, extracts, plasters and so-called " pain killers " and "skin cures" combined. Physicians and Veterinary Surgeons endorse the Centaur Liniments ; mil lions of men, women and children in all countries use them, and Housekeepers, Farmers, Planters, Travelers, Liverymen, Teamsters and Stock-growers, are their pat rons. They are clean, they are handy, they are cheap, and tii ey are reliable. There is no ache, pain, or swelling which they will not alleviate, subdue, or cure. Sold throughout .
