Potatoes Plentiful at2530 cts perbushel, 1 lou a $4.50 per bhL Hops We quote the following from Coch rau A Co's circular, dated at San Francisco September 19th: But little interest is shown by either dialer or grower as yet; picking is about over, and some growths are coming forward, with instructions to consignees to store them; growers behave it would be folly to offer their crop in the present condition o' the market and prefer to wait until the market is established; during the past week some four car loads hsve been sold, terrrs private; they were ;hiefly of a medium gride and not desirable lots to be held. New York State crop i about gathered, and an. thentic reports show that with the increased acreage the yield will be 30 per cent, below that of last year's crop; some business is be ing dune on the basis of 25 to 27 J cents, but growers gentrally, have confidence that bet ter prices most prevail, and prrfer to hold their stock. The tenor of our London dis patch of to-day is, that an active mark e' may be looked for. later on; at present their market is dull and lifeless; advices by mail from same source, ssy "hups are in three weeks early, and no one is ready for action, so they hate accumulated and sellers have forced price down. England's crop has im proved some during the put few weeks, but with the improvement shs will be obliged to import at leact 133,000 bale for her needs during the brewing season of '84 and '85. Ger many wi'l have few, if any, h"ps for exjKirt We must still quote market nominal 25 to 30 ornt. Ilaceipi for the week, 1.734 bales. Oae Wood fob Sale.

Sheiitr Charlton, accompanied by a deputy sheiitf from' Umatilla county, went t limwnsville last week and succeeded in ar resting four men who are accused of stealing thirty or forty horses from Eastern Oiei-on. The parties arrested were brought to Albany last Friday night and Inched up in the jail until Monday morning, when the deputy sheriff from Cmatilla county left with them for Pendleton. The names of the parties ar rested aie Win Field. James Wilson, Armstrong and John Wilson. John Wilson managed to get away front the ollicers at llarrioburg made his escape but was caught. Win Field and James Wilson both live at Brownsville and have respectable relatives liv ing there. There can behntlittledoubtof the guilt of the parties, as sixteen of the horses were found iu a paiture near Brownsville, which they were offering to sell very chesp or to trade for watehes or unything portable, while a large number have been found that have been tiaded off in different parts of the country. Ti.is is one of ths boldest and most extensive operations that l' come to light for a long time, and from the men tak ing the animals to their own homes and of fering them for sale would seem to be the most senseless that one could imagine. Several horses were sold in this eounty, and the purchasers will lire their money is the original owners will soon call for them. John Wilson wns once a resident of this city, and last winter was in our city several weeks as ac'ent for an organ mid piano linn. Entekpr sino. Last Monday morning the Daily Orejonian appeared In its new dress, in an eight page form from its new Hoe perfect ing press. The type has been enlarged and is of a beautiful face, makiuz it very easily read. The press, without the stereoty.ing process, is capable of producing 12,000 copies per hour, folded anil pasted. ' Every other day the quar to form will appear. The Improvement, we understand, hns cost the proprietor i(),000. There is probably not a city ill the Union double the size of Portland that ha such a papr. The Oreironian is a live newspaer and the eople of Oregon should feel proud of it It has a corps of writusof first-class ability. The people of Oregon should vive the paper a support that will recompense it proprietors for their lar ;e outlay. We congratulate the Orcgonian and wish it success in everything except it politics. Death of a Pioneer. A special dispatch of Sept 23d, from Ilillboro, says: Mr De tine C Griffin, wife of Rev J S Griffin, died .Monday evening, September 22, in the 80th year of her age.

Tuesday night Colo.n duck was burned with a loss of 130,001), which was insured for about $50,000. Both fires were the work of incendiaries. A vigi lante committee, properly organized, would clear that city of such scoundrels. Lao Broke. A little child of Scott Mc.

ORAINS AND Q RASHES. This is th department that excel all other. Penple from eastern state look and wonder. Mr Geo iielshaw ha th whole of th west end of th pavilion to show his apeciul exhi bits, which consist of twenty varietie of wheat in sacks, iars. classes anil also In sbaf. H also ha some ten different kind nf graue aud oat. Some nf the wheat look almost as large a marbles, while it i clear and white, and free from all imierfection of every kind. To make a contrast he ha wheat in Uttles from Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, Illinois, Ne braska and other states. The wheat from these state nr shrivelled and dark in color, looks insignificant when compared with our grain. This is claimed to be th finest sped..! exhibit ever made by a single wron in the world and w believe it to be the case. Th sheaf grain is fiom six to seven feet in h'ijht, while ths heads on the sam are six to seven inches iu length, and well filled. His grasses and oats have exceedingly long heads aud are very tall Mr Iielshaw deserve much praise by the people of lane county and the Sute of Oregon for his great interest in the raising of such irrain, and also for collecting the same for exhibition. Almv his display he has dip'oma from th State Fair for th best wheat; also on from the Centennial Exposition held in Md, giving him the pris-, a handsome gold medal and a diploma, for the heat exhibit nf wheat iu th w rld; also on of a similar kiml from the 1'sri Expoeition.
