Tim work of Inyir.g Rtringcr!t,tips and ril is nil that delays trains from running into this city, whioli wiJJ lie doiiR in a very Thw dnys. This is not an onjmportant stop t;i the liuilding of tlio Oregon Pacific, as ly thn laying of a 'few rods of track com nection will lie made with tho 0. it (J. railroad and nil rehandling of freight from central and Southern.

Tim time occupied ill swinging the draw for thn first limit was just soven minutes. It was hiihsequi'iitly during the day opened several times to ullow hoats to pass under, each tinio working satisfactorily. This, wo lielieve, is the only draw hridge in active umt in the State, and is constructed very sulistan tially. The swinging of the draw was witness id ly many peopln upon the river hank nnd upon tiie hridge, and it is estimated that not less than 2,0(10 people viewed the nearly completed structure yesterday. AlUny Herald, Jan. 3d. What the rrrsiili nl Says. "Tim income of th govern ment, hy its increased volume nnd through econ omies in its collection, is now more : than ever jn excess of puMic necessi ties, The application of tlm surplus to the payment of mdi portion of the' puiilic deht ns i now nt our option hul'j 'ct to extinguishment, if continued at the rain which has lately prevailed, would retire that class of indeliteduess within less than oim year from this date. Thus a continuation of pur present revmuo system would foon re sult iii tlie receipt of an annual income much greater than mcesiary to mei t government expenses, wi'h no indidit e.diii's tiprm r.!;ich it could he np phed." Would you care to listen to Ihe chimes of a ciihedtal in your own moiii? Tie a silver or plated spoon, to n ftring or liht cord, take an end of the cord in fftch hand and place one in each ear. Then swing the spoon so that it strikes against some object ns for ex ample n la '-In and every concussion will !.rausn,it a sou ml so intense that it will seem ns if some gigantic clock were striking in tlm neighborhood.

The Prrsiilrnl'i Puzzle, Tho Hon Frank Lawler spems to aniuso tho President very inucli when Im calls at tho White Houso and Cleve land is always glad to see tho Chicago Congressman. On Saturday after , in. troducing the haso hall nine, ho asked tho President if it was so that ho had originated puzzle. Tho president looked at him as if greatly astonished at tlm Question, and then tlm Hon. flunk explained that Im had heen shown a puzzle which every ono was calling 'Tlm Cleveland Puzzle." "It's little in.tro emphatic in lan guage than you usually uV," explained .Mr. Liwler; "hut then, ollieo seekers are mighty peculiar people, and 1 would not wonder at any kind of lan gunge at some of them." "What is tlm puzzle?" asked tlm president, who had grown interested "Give me a piece of paper and n pencil and I will show you," replied the Hon. Frank. The two sat down at tho nVsk, ami Mr. Lawler put down eleven ciphers on the paper, as follows: ( , u 00U0 000 GO 00 Tho president looked at tlm.n and said: "Well, I don't eeo anything strango ahout that." "No, not us they stand now," said the ChicsfS congressman. "Hut, wait and see." Then ho took up the pencil again nnd said: ".Mark a straight 'inn down from the lower right hand corner of the first cipher; that changes it to a g. Then make a straight line from tlm upper right hand corner of tlm fourth cipher, and that makes it a d. Then put put another himilar straight line down on the fifth cipher and Jtiako it a g also; a straight lino upon thn seventh ci pher ffi make it d. , Then another straight line up on tlm eighth cipher to it will Im d also, and a straight line down on tho tenth and that will make it g, and there you have a sentence, and one, it is said, you ueo on tho ollice seekers. The r resident looked nt tho message ns altered and rend: "good god, do go!" He looked ut tho Hon. Frank, a ihinuto, and finally said, ."Well, I'll say it to you." The Chicago congressman Ins been very busy showing tho Cleve land puzzle around to-day. Balti more American, A llcronl Ilia I Will Lire. Charles Francis Adams, who died recently, made nn undying record for linis.-lf, by writing the following inem- orablo letter to Tilden, on the day that Hayes look his seat as president: Postdn, March 5th, 1877. The Hon. S. J. Til.l.-n, New York. My Df.au Sir.: On this day, when you ouoht to have .been the President of tlm United Slates, I seize the oppor tunity to bear my testimony to the calm ami dignified manner in which you have passed through this great trial. It is manyyeais since I ceased to be a party man, hence I have endeavored t judge of public, all'airs and men rather by their merits than by the name they take. It is a source of gratification to rim to think that I made the riht choice in the lato election. I could never have been reconciled to the elevation by the smalVst aid of wine, of a per hon, however respectable in private life, who muni forever carry upon his i.row tho stamp of fraud firct triumph nut in Amerioin history. . No subse quent notion, hewever notorious, ran wash away the letters of that rnocrd. Very respectfully your, (Jii.titi.Ks Fiiancis Adams.

About three months ago a party of select rustlers, having their headquar ters in Frio county, Texas, crossed over to Mexico on a horso stealing expedU tiou. They raided a ranch about thirty miles from tlm border, killed three men, captured about forty homes and were heading for homo in triumph with their booty when tlm party were intercepted by a party of Mexican rustlers within a mile of tho South bank of the river. A (ierco fight en- sued. A couple of dashing freebooters ' on both sides bit tho dust, many werb wounded, and thp affaiv promised to resul', like the eucounter between the Kilkenny cats, in both sides getting cleaned up. Just at the hight of tho melee, as Winchesters wero cracking, pistols popping, wounded men ' groan ing, and fifty angry men swearing in two languages, bent on killing each other, a detachmont of Mexican cav alry dashed op. Peforo tho now ar rivals had time to take in tho situation tho comhattants ciused fighting. AD- most by impulse a couplo of men froni both factions retreated with tho stolen horses, and the main hody of both proceeded to pump lead into tho caalry men. Tho latter returned tho firo, but the desperadoes were more than threA to one, and after leaving three dead and two wounded comrades, tho cav alry detachment shipped,' rithnr than retreated, to Cainargo. This is not all. When the cavalrymen wero out of thp way the desperadoes resumed tho Cghti and kept it up until many on both sides were killed and ' tho aruunition almost exhausted. It will perhaps gratify American national prido to learn that tlio American robbers sue' ceeded in bringing tho horses to tins' side of the river and holding on to the:u. St, Louis Globe. Democrat.

Ho was col lector of customs at Fort Umpqua dur1 in" the Administration of President Pierce, but Mr. Buchanan declined to re-appoint him, so he removed to Hose-;' burg where lie kept a hotel for several' years. In 1858 he camn to Portland and was admitted to tho bar, entering into a partnership with Hon. Ooorgo II. Williams. In I860 ho was elected' to the legislature and, two years later received a nomination for Governor,' being elected by a laroe majority.

Since 1883 he has spent tho most of his time in England negotia ting sales of Oregon lands to parties desiring to emigrate hither. His fam ily still reside in Portland.

How he managed to pass SL Peter is not positively known, but it is' conjectured that ho passed himself oft for an editor and slipped in unexpectedly- When ho was discovered : the startled angles searched the realms o felicity in all their length nnd breadth' for another lawyer to draw up papers for his ejectment, but (Imy could find none, of course, and he held the fort Asked why tho Salvation Army used red so much in their dress, Gen-' Booth is reported to have unid : "It' grew on us.
