We hear of a colored man who shot and killed a toll-bridge keeper because the keeper would not let him pass free, yet the toll was only 5 cents while the cost of the powder and ball was 6 cents. It is no. won der that some people never accumulate any thing. ,AJter all, our recent rain has not materi ally hurt the crops. No grain will be lost and but very little if any hay. It was at first supposed that the hay crop or so much as was yt in the field would be considerable damage jbut later reports say that it has all dii&Tout nicely. Will Kirk and Albert Ray have returned from Newport. They do not report any large sales of real estate in that part of the county, but if possession implies ownership we would judge from their appearance on arrival that they were both freeholders at the expense of some one else's land. We find oh our table this week, in neat form the annual proceedings of the Grand Lobge of L O. of G.

A liaaPBr is a very useful article to a woman. It serves the parpeseof toothpick, outtoti-hook, and hair fastener; but -all this is no excuse for having one in youivest pocket when your wife doesen't know where it comes from. L. G.

It looks clean and nice, and tobacco chewars will have o be careful where they east their saliva whan visiting there. The parformance on List Tuesday night by the jubilee singers was fair. The imita tion of a Chinese character by a negro was good, and "Down on the Swanee river," sung by Miss Maggie Webb, was excellent. The remainder of their exhibition will aver age fairly with traveling shows, yet we hge seen better. A contract has been let for sawing a large amount of lumber by the Oneatta mill to be used by the Oregon Pacific Railroad in building wharves, sheds and warehouses at the western terminus of the road. The mill will commence work on the contract next Monday morning. It is expected that the two surveying parties now engaged upon the route of the Oregon Pacific Railroad from here to the Yaquina Bay will meet in about ten days, after which about a week's time will be con sumed in sufficiently locating the track, when the grading will commence. Will. C. Crawford, who has been long and favorably known amongst ua, believes it beneficial to indulge in printer's ink. We invite attention of the public to his jeweler's advertisement, under the head of "New this week." Also to his place of business, where every-thing in his line can be had on the most reasjnable terms. W. W. Terry, one of Knaup, Burrell & Co's experts, came up from Portland this week for the purpose of doctoring any agri cultural machinery that he may find out of sorts. Mr. Terry is agon I workman, and when he leavea a machine it runs as nicely as clock work, and the new iurchasHkoes ou bis way rejoicing, happy as a clam. We learn that on Wednesday last, a well known party was arrested at Philomath, upon a warrant isned by Justice Brownson of that place charged with hbal. The char ges are btsel upon certain defamatory matter written by the arrastel ptrty, and published in certain newspapers of the state attacking the charaater of one of the pro fessors of Philomath College. Some one feloniously stole a bucket of plums intended for this office, from father Perkins. Three of them weighed a pound, says the " Eugene City Guard." We know that things grow large in Lane county, es pecially in the imagination, yet we suppose that it is meant that three bucket's full of that delicious fruit weighed a pound. Dr. Fred Vincent, returned home Monday from Ann Arbor, Michigan. Fred has many friends in this city who will le glad to welcome him home. He graduated this summer with honor from the Medical De partment of the Ann Arbor University ami is now a full-fledged M. V.. with, we trust, a life of usefullness and prosperity before him. Last Saturday seemed to be about the last day with the farmers before commenc ing harvest in good earnest, and the town was literally alive with farmers busy in get ting their horses shod and machinery re paired. We. happened into one blacksmith shop just at noon and was informed that thev had already pat on 30 shoes, and there were in waiting nearly or quite twenty horses for the afternoon work. Death of Gen. Brown. Gen. Mart. V. Brown died at 15 minutes past 1 o'clock on Wednesday, Aug. 3d, 1881, at Lower Soda Springs in Linn county,' where he had gone several weeks previous in search of health. Though still quite a young man, being only 38 yeirs old, Gen. Brown nad been for a long time one of the most promi nent public men of onr . State. He was State Printer for four years, and for over fifteen years was editor of the ' 'State Rights Democrat," in which position he acquired considerable journalistic reputation. He was a soldier in the late war of the rebellion, having answered President Lincoln's first call for volunteers. Under Gov. Grover's administration he was appointed Brig. Gen. of the 2d Rrig., Oregon State Militia, which office he held at the time of his death. In disposition he was frank, generous am1 at tractive, and had made many friends in different parts of the State. He died sur rounded by his family and near friends, in the full possession of his mental faculties, and expressing a firm belief in and reliance on the truths of the gospel. He was bur ried at Albany on Friday, the 5th, at 3 P. M. The fuueral ceremonies being conducted by the Masouie fraternity, of which he was a member, R. P. Earhart, P. G. M., officiat ing. The funeral address was delivered by Rev. S. O. Irvine, D. D. , at the U. P. church; a very large congregation assembled at the church and followed the remains to their last resting pbce. The orderof A. O. U. W. , and the Albany Fire Department, of which he was a member, were in the pro cession in full regalia, as well as a deputa tion from the Capital Guards at Salem. State of Matrimoxv. The smartest man in Benton county is the chap who gave us this vivid description of the state of matrimony: "It is bounded by hnging and kissing on one si lo, and cradles and babies ou the other. Its chief products are population, broom-sticks, and staying out of nights. The climate is rather sultry till you pass the tropics of house keeping, when squally weather generally sets in, with sufficient power to keep all hands as cool as cucumbers. For the principal roads leading to this interesting state, consult the first beautiful blonde you come across. " No doubt the young man lias been racking his brain over "ancient (?) literature," and has. no doubt, obtained the correct description of the state. MONROE ITEMS- Regular correspondent to the Gazette. There has been no excitement in town lately except one or two dog fights. Mr. Miller, Woodcock & Baldwin's tin ner, is here putting on the tin roof of Houck & Son's new store; he is doing an excellent job. We had a very hard shower of rain here yesterday about noon; no damage done, however. It dried off so quickly that the machines did not stop only for dinner. Nearly all the machines in this end of "the county are running now, or will commence this week. Mr. Wm. Garlinghonse starts his new steamer to-morrow. Wheat is turning out very good in this neighborhood so far, and oats are excellent. A. Wilhelm's family are all ont of danger now. We made a mistake last week in re gard to their sickness; it was not billious ness but scarlet fever. He had seven down at one time, but they are all doing well now.. We heard that Mr. W. was very much offended last week because we said hi3 family was billious. We meant no of fense, it was our iguorance and we beg his pardon. There have been several reports of petty larceny going rourd lately. 'Last week when Mr. N. A. Thompson returned from the Yaquina he found his garden all torn up, his onions and clothes line one, and almost everything that could be easily car ried off. He left his wagon standing back of the house, and next morning the taps of the wheals were gone. Whoever it is had better take warning. Monroe, August 9, 1881. -At the Star Bakery, P. N.

On la3t Wednaslay two boys of our town, each of them aged about fourteen or fifteen years, were arrested upon information having baea filed with Justice Wrenn to the effect that they had stolen sundries articles of small vilue. They were trie 1 and fined by his honor, and failing upon their part to pay the necessary amount, they Were both sent to the county jail. As these boys are young, an 1 both having hon orable and highly respected parents living in the city, we pass the matter by without giving their names, with the hope that this will be a lesson for the boys which they will not soon forget, and that it may be their last offense. Opposition Ferry. One day last week one of the Williamsons, living in this county came to the Ferry at Albany on horse back, just as the boat had left for the Albany side and being on a good horse and not wishing to be delayed until the bo it should cross and recros3 the river, called to the ferryman that he could beat the boat across the river and started in to do so. He succeeded pretty well until about half way across when the horse, becoming either weary or from some other- sudden inspiration, turned around and started for the home side. In turning, the saddle came off and Mr. W, found himself and saddle adri t in the Will amette. However he soon succeeded in getting hold of the horse and was towed ashore in safety.

A Model Wife. Says the editor ot the Cartersville ((ia. ) Express: "There is a little brown-eyed, inthusiastic, high-spirited lady who, after she has cooked breakfast and cleared away the things, set .the house to rights, attended the call of the bread wagon and milked the cow, dons her hat and cloak, conies into thi3 office, yanks U3 out of the editorial easy chair, pounces on the exchan ges, amputates every item of interest, stacks them on the copy-hook, grabs up a Faber, travels it over a quire of editor's manuscript piper, "removes her snowy-white apron, shoves up her sleaves, grabs a stick and rule and set3 it all into type, reads the proofs and corrects every error. That's our wife, and she will .get her reward in heaven." She Went. The old gentleman solemnly. said: "Yes, daughter, you should go to Newport. You cannot stay at home during the warm weather and live. To be sure, your mother, who hasn't been out of town since she was married, can stand it; but then she is old-fashioned and doesn't know any better, and, beside, she has fun enough doing the washing and ironing. By all means, g .. Get a linen duster and a blanket, and go at once." Heap Sabbe. A California editor says that twenty-four heathen Chinese walked into his sanctum, and, through an interpre ter, paid for twenty-four subscriptions to his paper. The editor wondered what they wanted with au English paper, and they took it for the pictures in it, the paper hav ing a rat cut, a catarrh cut, a guano trade mark, and an umbrella "picture." State University. We call special at tention to the advertisement of the State University at Eugene City, which will be found under the head of new this week. This educational institution has lately been the. favored recipient of a -handsome dona tion of sufficient amount to pay off the en tire debt against the University. This is a State institution of which Oregon has long felt a great need for, and it should receive a liberal patronage from all those wishing the advantages of an education. Burglary. Some one entered the fruit house of Mr. E Rosenthal of this city last week and carried away about forty dollars worth of wines and fruit. It is be'ieved that the theft was committed by parties liv ing in town and the officers are on their traek. The Chicaoo Pictuhe Tent, next to Langworthy's store, Main street, Corvallis, will remain about "two weeks. Pictures of all sizes taken and finished in ten minutes.

As this Institution is unequa'ed in facilities for the treatment of these afflictions, all who are interested should nt fail to see these surgeons. 33w3. It is said that the new Oregon and China Mercantile Company, which was incorpor ated a short time ago, had let a contract to Muekle Bros., of St. Helens, for a new A No. 1 ship which would cost somewhere in the neighborhood of 9100,000. If this is true, it will be the erection of a ship yard at St. Helens, a matter which has been long devoutly wished for. A Vacant Chair. There is a vacant chair in our sanctum ; a highly burnished pair of No. 11 cow hide boots are missed from the corner of the office desk; a pair of stalwart scissors are paralyzed, and the paste-pot is in mourning; there is a kind of "goneness" about the whole concern. Our Senior has departed for Yaquina Bay started Wednesday morning. Tuesday even ing he seemed too full of sacred pleasure and lavender-colored tranquility for any thing. He skipped gaily about the office softly warbling to himself the fragments of a tender love-song, in the meanwhile pack ing the corkscrews, matches and other vege tables for the trip. The corkscrews will be used in opening oysters. He went with Mac Crow, and we are satisfied that he made no suggestions as to the road or how to drive. He " is full of taffy, gentle trust and childlike confidence. By the time Pio neer was reached, he was probably covered with boulders of dust, and felt like acting as chief mourner at a clam-bake. He would not stop long at Pioneer. Toledo has more attractions. As he approaches this place, he will wear his blandest smile, and care fully adjust his cold-pressed vermilion mous tache. At Newport he will take in every thing of value; he will visit the light-house, assd probably climb upon its dome. He is high-minded. There, as he sits amidst the rumbling, rushing music of the "Waves, he will be filled with great surging thoughts of the sweet by-and-by, death, the grave, mat rimony, his unpaid wash bill, and other mirth -provoking topics. It will be a glor ious spectacle. A suggestive chill creeps up to our choakeras we think of it. He will eat three "squares" a day, each as large as a burglar-proof safe. "Early yorks " and pickled spiders will furnish nourishment between meals. He did not carry much bullion of his own along, with ihich to supply a want long fe't at Newport. He is rich in A fiats." When beyond the restrain ing influences of the office, he is liable to act a little queer. We will depend on Rialto to go his bail if necessary. He is authorized to receive and receipt for sub scriptions to the Gazette, 2 50 per annum, in advance. All kinds of job printing in good style, at starvation prices. Legal blanks in stock. We leave him at New port, and will not in thi3 article attempt to follow him on his return trip. He will then be followed by other people, with other articles. Our ''address will be Cor vallis, Benton County, Oregon." O RE GO 1ST Jtate university EUGENE CITY, Lane County, Oregon.

The entertainmeut announced for next Monday evening at the Evangelical Church should be well attended. Aside from its worthy object, the views alone aie worth seeing. Surplus Wheat. The various ware houses of this city contain about 30.000 bushels of wheat of the harvest of 18S0. It rarely happens that wheat is carried over here, and the large surplus this Yfar was undoubtedly caused by lack of vesseh to transport it to Europe. It may indicate low prices this season. Present advices lead us to believe that there will be no scarcity of tonnage this fall, but whether the foreign demand will be large is yet doubtful. The telegrams inform us that the wheat crop of Russia is better this sea eon than for twenty years, and that the export promises to be much greater. Crops throughout Europe will be average, and prices here will probably not rule higher than last year. New Company Articles were filed with the Secretary of State last Saturday by Wm. Reid, Wm. Dunbar, Jno. I). Hurst, W. J. Burns, (of Balfour, Guthrie & Co.,) Alex. P. Ankney and Ellis G.

The company intends at once to erect an addition to the Capital Flouring Mills ia the northern part of the city of Salem, and increase the capacity of the same to 600 barrels daily. The corporation has also purchased the Cook place on the river bank and the property once owned by the Wil lamette Woolen Mills, and the exclusive water power connected therewith.
