Cornelius Items.
Cornelius Oct. 15th 1876.
JMessrs Spencer, Dow and others who
went into the Nehaleui country to prospect
and look up homes have returned. In
conversation with Jr. Spencer we gleaned
the following .knowledge of that country and
their trip. The portion which he visited
was very heavily timbered. The soil is of the
richest quality and will produce vegetables
finely. Game is not as abundant as the
party were led to believe and the rivers were
two low to catch many fish. They t3ok
prospecting pans along and found "color"
in the Nehalem River but not in paying
quantities. Mr. Spencer took a land claim
for -himself and one for his son. Jany
others will soon follow his example. The
party enjoyed good health during their trip
and look as if the expedition had agreed
with them.
A Chinaman in Cornelius was horse'
whipped by a "Jelican" man last week for
some offence which he gave to the Jehu.
The Good Templars Lodge at this place

Town marshal Jack Welch, will

cious, being preferred by some to
California grapes.

Rather Suspicious.
A foreigner somewhat roughly
dressed past through town last week
offering a very handsome new silk
shawl for sale. He represented that
he had bought it from the old coun
try as a present to a friend but be
ing out of fuu ds was obliged to sell
it. He set the price at some places
at $60 and then came down as low
as $5, but finally foiind a purchaser
at $15. The fellow was impertinent
and insulting wherever he found
there were no men about the house.
Those who ate judges of such mate
rial think that the shawl could not
be bought for less than flOO in San
Francisco, and it is suspected that
the foreigner had some good reason
for being so anxious to get rid of it.
