The model democrat of Massachns etts familiaTly known as Ben Butler and who has recently been lifted into the high chair of State ha? always" been a much abnsed man. He has often been called Spoon Butler by his enemies, bnt then there is noth ing much in a name and wo never did believe that he had more spoons than he needed. We always de nooTioe the spoon business as a big sized falsehood, gotten ip by some unscrupulous republican (?) to injure his fair name because he is a- good democrat. Then there was that yarn about that famous order which he was said to have given concerning the ladiesy when in New Orleans, while in command of the soldiers there. The ladies however have be come oonvinoed that it was all a po litical fabrication gotten up to injure poor Ben, because he is a good dem ocrat, now warming the chair of state under a democratic banner. Some of those who pretend to be able to tell of the future of the democratic party are already predicting that Honest Ben. will more than likily be tbe next democratic nominee for president, as embodying the quint essenso of democratic principles and as having the main qualification in the anquenching desire for the office. ADVERTISING. There are a great many people who are quite easily induced to ad vertise in directories, pamphlets and a like class of publications, who al -ways refuse to advertise in the newspaper.- At the same time not- one hundredth part of tbe number of peo ple ever have the opportunity to see an advertisement in a directory or pamphlet t what does in a newspa per. When the advertisement is placed in tbe former that issue of a few hundred is all that ever contains the ad. while if the same advertise ment is placed-in a weekly newspaper as many nnmbers are issued every week during the fifty-two weeks of the year, thus giving fifty-two chan ces for the ad. to be seen in a weekly newspaper to where it is in books of the class above named. Tc advertise profitably in propor tion to the money expended, requires stndy and thought. By all parties who have made the question of adver tising a study it is unanimously con ceded that the newspaper is the best because it is constantly being circu lated among the people ever j week, i a weekly, and each day if a daily Besides of all other means newspaper advertising is conceded to be the cheapest by far. THE GAZETTE. The time of year for reading is ap- proaehmg and people will soon be selecting their newspapers for the coming year. In a little over a month the Gazette will start on the 20th year of its existance, and when that year rolls around the Corvallis Gazette will than be twenty years Id. We feel confident in sayin that during all of that time it never has prospered better than during tbe last year. Ever since we commen ced laboring with it it has steadily been increasing In subscriptions- and advertising patronage. The material for making a variety of news ia not to be found so much in a small place like this, as it is in larger places, yet wa have endeavored at all times to give all news of interest to the reader.- If eaeh friend of the Gazette will take it in hand and obtain one new subscriber, for it, paya ble in advance, for the coming year it will about double our subscription list which will aford revenue sufficient for ns to make valuble improvements to the paper which all will highly appreciate. , Let every reader of the Gazette lend their influence in this direction. The better a newspaper is patronized the more valuble it becomes to all its readers, for the proprietors, when the paper is flourishing financially, are al ways ready and willing to expend he means for the improvement of its solnmns. Circuit court convenes here next joday morning and will continue several days, daring which time we do not expect to have much time to devote to the Gazette. Any at tention of ours which may be lacking thereto we hope will be excused, for which we will endeavor to make up some other time. The present num ber will be found wanting in its usual supply of editorial matter for the same reason. Fact3 and Figures. Ten thousand tons of sand aro annually dug from Nevering mountain, near Reading, Pa., for use in the foundaries of that place.

China claims to have invented a cannon 1800 years ago. She seems to have been satisfied with her first invention, as she has made no progress in cannon -making since J. tie largest theatre is the new Opera .House in Fans. It covers nearly thre acres of ground. It3 cubic mass is 4,287,000 feet. It cost 100,000,000 francs. The largest city in the world is London. Its population numbers 3,020,871 people. New York with a population of about 1,- ooo.uw, conies nun on the list of great cities. The largest suspension bridge will be the one now building between New York City J T) 1 1 mi ..... im urauKiyn. neiengtn ot mam span is 1,0'Jo, feet 5 inches; the entire length of the bridge is 5.9S5 feet. The honey crop of 1S82 is not expected to greatly exceed that of 1881, which was an lnuinerent one. California s crop in 1878 was 720,000 pounds. This year it is calcu lated at 180,000 pounds. Mrs. Langtry, the English beauty, was to have made her first appearance at Abbey's iew iork theatre on the night of Oct. 30, out the buililing, with all its magnificent scenery, was destroyed by fire in the after noon; loss 8209,000.

In cargoes of 1500 tons each, this quantity of produce will loadover 900 large ships, or three every day of the year except Sundays. Quite a sensation was created at a cirens at Marquette, Mich., recently. In the act where a circus rider, disguised as a drunk en tramp, falls into the ring and wants to ride a horse, the ringmaster threw the drunkard ont, and with much seeming in dignation asked why there were no police men around to keep order. A German po liceman, who was standing by, and who knew the man belonged to the circus, felt indignant at having the police abused, so ho took the alleged drunken man, and notwith standing the circus people tried to explain the circumstances, he was hustled offto the lock-up, and the act was left out. After the show the proprietor went to the jail and got the performer out, and abused the policeman a little for being so officious, The policeman said: "Veil a choke is i choke, but ven a man zay vere is de bolice and vy don'd dey arrest dat drunk man, den de Marquette bolice is in dot vicinity, and don t you rorgot it, Mr. Circus, I bet you." 86,500,000 worth of goods amounts to $392, 496. An estimate of 8407,644 is submitted for collecting on a similar amount, the du ties being increased 815,188 over last year. It is recommended that an appraisers' de partment be organized, with one head, in stead of two, and suggested that the salary of collector be fixed at $5000, and that of deputy surveyor and that of deputy naval officer at $2500 each. Estimates are as fol lows: Collector's office' 281,820: surveyor's office, $12,925; naval office, $22,525; ap praiser's office, $44,050; for contingencies, 43,325.

The commissioners of the IGarfield monument fund met last night and formed a permanent organization Minneapolis, Nov. 12. Navigation closed on the Missouri river yesterday. Cincinnati, JNov. 12. James lioroid, a man seventy years old, had $5000 in gov ernment bonds stolen from his dwelling on Madison Pike road, east of this city, by bnrglars. Coupons for the interest which had not been drawn for seventeen years were still attached which makes the loss nearly double. Boston, Nov. 11. Those persons, and they were doubtless numerous, who were expecting Hon. Jas. G. Blame to seize the opportunity to make an attack on the ad ministration were doomed to disappoint ment. The ex-secretary was in the city several hours yesterday on his way from Augusta to Washington, and while here he refused to be interviewed. He neverthe less talked freely to one or two personal friends concerning the political situation. He does not see in Tuesday's reverse any thing to cause despondency for the future fo the republican party. The democratic Party suffered an overwhelming defeat in 1840 but carried the election in 1844. The republican party war practically beaten in several northern states in 1832, but Abraham .Lincoln carried all except one or two 1864. He believes victory may be a chioved in 18S4 by presenting as candidate for president a man upon whom both fact ions can unite and who has the confidence of the country. It looks to him as if Ben Harrison was the one for the exigency, and to the accomplishment of that result he will lend his influence as a private citizen who believes republican success in 1884 is essen tial to the welfare of the country. Blaine, there is reason to believe, is in earnest in saying he is not a candidate for the presi denty or for any other office. In August last he said, ' 'I am not a candidate, and it now looks to me that I shall never be a candidate." To-day he reaffirmed this statement and left off the qualifying clause His language now is, ' 'I want you to dis tinctly understand I am no candidate for the presidency nor any other office, and nothiug can induce me to be. This was t0 an intimate friend of Blaine. Boston, Nov. 11, Secretary Chandler and Senator Blair, of New Hampshire, was together awhile this afternoon. Blair when questioned remarked that in his opinioh if Butler carried Massachusette in 1883. TELEGRF.MS. Washington, Nov. 12. The rumor that Assistant Secretary New had resigned start ed here again yesterday, but is premature. At least it grows out of a well-known fact that -New does not like his position, and wants the secretaryship of nothing. By common consent, tolgeror New must go. V ery nearly a year ago now New became assistant secretary, succeeding Upton. Up ton had been political manager of the de partment, both under Sherman and under Windom. When New succeeded him. Sec retary Folger having just been inducted in to office, he naturally supposed he was suc ceeding, not only to Upton's throne, but to Upton's sceptre. In fact his friends assert with great positiveness that, knowing Fol ger to be comparatively untrained in the arts of political politics, the president ap pointed New to run tLe treasury for him, so far as its politics went. But the secretary proved refractory. He insisted on know ing all about everything done in his name, and was too tender hearted to allow men and women to be discharged merely because someone else wanted their places. With control over appointments New had nothing in particular to do. He signs his name to documents just like the chief of the Bureau, but has no real discretion or power. His position does not"' amount to much more than that of a hand stamp. How unsatisfactory this is to a man of New's ideas, temperament and ambitions can be imagined. . Mention is being made of the trouble caused by New's promises of offices which Folger refused to give. Folger did not like it necause -ew made the promise and New did not like it because Folger did not allow tbe promises to be kept. It is now said the way out cf the difficulty has been found, which is for old Judge Bradley of the supreme courtto retire for Folger to take his place and New to be secretary. Washington, Nov. 12. Secretary Folger yesterday afternoon made public the reperts of the various commissions appointed to ex amine custom houses with a view of rend ering the service more efficient. The com mission which visited San Francisco report the present export ollwtion en about he would be a very strong tfcS5fe for the democratic nomination, anoyne contest in in that state next year he thinks will be the bitterest ever Know, ana tsutler s promm ence in the national democratic party de ponds entirely on his re-election to the gov ernship. Senator Blair expressed the opin ion that Butler is anyway the strongest man the democrats can nominate in 1884, as he is especially strong with the negroes of the south and he ia a firm reporter of Ma honism. New York, Nov. 13. The Sunjinaweek ly review of Wall street affairs, has tbe following concerning James Gordon Ben nett's new cable scheme, the making and laying of the cable to cost $2,200,000, of which Bennett has subscribed $1,000,000 and promised another 1,000,000 if a second cable is necessary and the capital be raised to $5,000,000. ihe new cabde will be worfced in con junction with the Baltimore and Ohio tele gradh system, and the Herald advises western newspapers not to make any con tracts with the Western Union, until Ben nett is ready to send them on philanthropic principles with his new toy. Chicago, Nov. 13. The Times will pub lish a story in the morning to the effect that the Chinese dwarf, Chee Mah, 45 years old and 44 inches high, is about to marry a young woman aged 19, who gives the name of Fannie Coleman, and is said to be of well-to-do Catholic parents in New York. New York, Nov. 13. The captain of the brig Letitia, arrived to-day from Meragone, reports that Sept. 21st, when near St Marc, Hayti, a large comet of great brilliancy was seen bearing east by south and visible for some time after sunrise. The captain says that the comet has been visible in Hayti some time and is very large and brilliant. As we came northward it diminished in size and brightness, and appeared moving in a more southerly direction - over Hayti. It was seen as late as 10 A. M. in the day and appeared much lartrer than upon- our ap proach to New York. Moat of the people in Hayti think their last day has come. After the comet of last year they had small pox and lost upwards of 60,000 lives. Washington, Nov. 13. Pension Commis sioner Dnrley is preparing tables for his an nual report, and has made the discovery that there are 100,000 ex-soldiers yet living in the United States who have never ap plied for pensions. These men are getting along in years, and disorders contracted in Postmaster-General Howe has been de bating the propriety of recommending in his annual leport the establishment of a postoffice savings bank in connection with the money order system of the postoffice department, and has finally come to the con clusion not to make such a recommendation, but to leave the matter to congress. For the past few years each successive postmaster-general, from Creswell down to May nard, has recommended a postal savings bank, but congress has never taken kindly to it. Such banks, in the opinion of the post office officials who have strongly advocated them, are now passed being organized. The postal bank system presupposes a perma nent national debt, that the savings de posited may find an investment for which the government is responsible. In fifty years, at the present rate of paying off the debt there will be no government bonds in the market, and hence no basis upon which to build a postal savings bank system. Washington, Nov. 13. Commenting on the election, a correspondent says: '"More than half of the faces will be new ones." Washington. Nov. 13. Henry George de livered a lecture last night under the aus pices of the federation of labor. During the course of his remarks George called at tention to the alarming growth in strength of railroad corporations, and recommended as the only practicable check threats of the absorption of their property by the govern ment. In the result of the recent election George saw a promise of revulsion in the popular feeling which would result in bring ing forward great industrial and economic principles. Invitations to be present had been tendered to the president and his cab inet; but none of them attended. Indian Commissioner Price to-day re ceived information that the U. S. marshal in Indian territory had seized a quantity of liquor belonging to officers of the army which was being conveyed into the territory. The law provides that no liquor except for med ical purposes can be brought into that coun try. The commander of the department protests against the seizure and says it is illegal. The protests are said to bo en dorsed by Gens. Sherman and Sheridan. The matter will be brought to the attention of Secretary Teller. Washington, Nov. 13. There is consid erable discussion over awarding the con tract for dredging the Potomac flats. It is said a Washington bidder has been bought off in order to let the contract go to the next lowest bidder, who is a New York man. There is talk of bringing the subject to the attent on of the committee on the district when congress assembles, and considerable discontent is shown that anything occurred involving delay in the work, which is gen erally recognized should be done at the ear liest possible moment. Clerks sent out to the Prcifie coast by the Indian office to purchase and award In dian supplies, have returned. Supplies to the weight of 486.S72 pounds, and costing over $75,000, were purchased, being an in crease over the last purchase in weight of 94,475 pounds. The quality of the supplies was fully up to last year's standard, whili the cost was fully ien per cent. less. . Washington, Nov. 13. Ex-Surgeon Gen eral Barnes continues in such feeble health as to cause his friends great anxiety. Wood ward, another of President Garfield's phy sicians, is also very low. He has not been able to raise his head since his return from Europe two months ago. Woodward's friends have little hope of his recovery. Washington, Nov. 13. Hints are heard that Folger will succeed Justice Bradley of the supreme court, who will be 70 years old in February and will consequently retire. New will succeed Folger and Gorham will be offered the place vacated by New. Philadelphia, Nov. 13. Samuel J. Kan dall was hunted up to-day for a talk on the future of the democratic party. Deferring to the November elections Mr. Randall said, 1 believe the recent democratic and reform success means a declaration by the people m favor of greatly reducing public expenses both in general and local govern ment. Such reductions are easily retainable and can be secured without friction to pro per administration. Republican control has led to extravagance in every direction, and the people believe that those in power are not equal to the accomplishment of such re sult. There are many questions vital to the prosperity 'of the country that must be met, and among the number none is of more im portance than the doing away with the in-, ternal revenue system. As for myself, I am in favor of an absolute and entire repeal of all such taxation. The republicans .made fatal mistake in not co-operating with the democrats at tbe last session of congress in securing the then proposed reduction of $70,000,000. Now the whole system must go- London, Nov. 13. The steamer West phalia, of the Hamburg-American line, from New York, Nov. 2d, for Hamburg, via Ply mouth, has put into Portsmouth with a hole in her port bow, received by a collision with an unknown steamer off Beachy Head early this morning. The Westphalia is making water rapidly and will be docked. A boat lowered from the WestphaKa to search for the other steamer is missing. A steamer has been sent to search for the missing boat and steamer. Later It is believed the missing steamer has gone to the bottom with all hands, also the missing boat of the Westphalis, which contained an officer and six men. The officers of the Westphalia report that it was intensely dark at the time of , the collision with a heavy sea. New York, Nov. 14. The suit of Sam Wilkeson against Henry Ward Beecher, was called to-day before Judge Barrett in the supreme court. The action is for breach cf contract. Beecher contracted with tbe publishing firm of Ford & Co., in December, 1869, to write a life of Christ. He agreed to write the book within 18 months and re ceived as part payment in advance, and be fore signing the contract, $10,000, Wilke son was a partner in the firm and paid the advance. Since then the plaintiff says he the service are manifesting themselves in has never been able to get the book from pensionable disabilities. The prevalent idea Mr. Beecher nor the $10,000 advanced for that the pension rolls should be decreasing . it. The first part was furnished Ford & Co. at this fame be thinks is erroneens. I torn yean ago sad was published and cir culated. Tha second part was only partial ly furnished-by the defendant. The plain tiff alleges he was putto considerable ex pense in preparing for printing the work and sues to recover these expenses. When the case was called to-day both sides were ready. Beecher was present and sat by kis counsel, Thos. G. Sherman. Counsel for. defendant moved to dismiss the complaint on the ground that it did not state the payment of royalty to, the bearer hod been fulfilled and a statement had not been given him as to the number of books published. Counsel also moved to dismiss the complaint upon the paper itself. Judge Barrett denied the motion. A number of papers were put in evidence and the first witness called. John R. Howard, a member of the firm of Howard 4 Co. Lexington, Ky., Nov. 14. About three hundred men of John H. Morgan's com mand met here yesterday and formed a per manent organization, with General Basil Duke president. Mrs. Morey, of Chicago, sister of Gov. Blackburn, was present and elected honorary president, and the mother of Gen. Morgan and the wife of Gen. Duke were made honorary vice presidents. It was determined to hold a grand reunion in camp near this city next July, and invite a!l who served in the confederacy. Speeches were made by Gen. Duke, Gen. R. M. Gano and Lieutenant Governor Cantrell. Those present marched in a body to the residence of Mrs. Morgan and paid their respects to the mother of their commander. In a side hall, accompanying an old portrait of Gen. Morgan, hung the stars and bars, and outside, in front of the building, floated the stars and stripes. Wilmington, N. C, Nov. 14. The vote of this state is so dose between Bennett and Dockery for congressmen at large, that it will probably take the official count to de cide the result. The chances seem in favor of Bennett, democrat, by 500 majority. Springffeld, Nov. 14. Complete official returns on the state legislature show the next house will have 77 republicans, and the senate 31 republicans, as already indi cated in these dispatches, giving that party 12 majority on joint ballot and control of both branches. Washington, Nov. 14. The outgo of silver dollars from the treasury continues to be large and this month will probably ex ceed tho coinage by considerable. The de mand at this season of the year does- not give the treasurer much encouragement 'for a permanent depletion of his coffers of stan dard dollars, because every year the outgo during the autumn months is not very much and it regularly stops short the first of Jan uary, and it is at a standstill for the next six months cr until the time arrives for the movement of another corn crop in the south western state. Washington, Nov. 14. A cabinett meet ing was held to-day. No business of im portance was transacted. The principal topics of discussion were several reports of executive officers. Secretary Chandler took occasion to remark that the elections were not discussed. It is estimated that 50 con tested election cases will come before the house of representatives in the next con gress. Washington, Nov. 14. Acting Secretary Joslyn has decided the case of Williams vs. the heirs os Hodgman, at Benson, Minn., in favor of the heirs. It appears that Hondg man made an entry on land of Williams on the ground that Williams died and left his entry incomplete. The acting secretary held that the heirs should be allowed to complete the entry. Washington, Nov. 14. It is believed that some of the aged clerks in the postoffice de partment will be weeded cut on the first of the month. Many of them are said to be incapacitated from duty. The Star says some removals will also be made because clerks refused to pay assessments. San Francisco, Nov. 14, In tho case of Fook Ah Hein, the Chinese merchant who arrived on the steamer Coptic and was not permitted to land. Judge Hoffman, of the U. S. district court, to-day sustained the writ of habeas corpus permitting him to land, on the ground of the decision that, although the applicant had no certificate, it was proved by sufficient evidence that he was a merchant and consequently needed none. Three other Chinamen are detained on the Coptic, and the district attorney thinks that evidence must be produced in court to admit of their landing, but Judge Hoffman expressed the opinion that the collector of the port could make inquiries and if satisfied they were merchants, conld allow them to land. drew his revolver and commenced firing at them. One shot took effect in Vincent's left arm and another in his abdomen. His companion ran into the brush where their horses were, caught one and soon brought up help from the Springs. The assassin made his escape and Vincent is not expected to live. A party of citizens are in pursuit of the would-be murderer, whose object is unknown- except it be robbery. LEGAL.
