The Trial Concluded and the Defend ant Acqnitted Applause in the Conrt Room Congratulations of Friends Yesterday was entirely taken tip by the trial of the case of the State vs. S. E. -May. There was considerable in terest taken in the case and the court room was filled with spectators during the day. The State had several law yers, chif-f among whom were N. L. Rutler, Prosecuting Attorney, assisted by W. W. Thayer of Portland, John Rurnetl of Renton county, C. G. Curl of this city, and R. S. Strahan of Cor vallis ; Judge R. P. Roise, Unfits Mai lory P. C. Sullivan, Ren Ilayden, II. Y'. Thompson and N. 15. Knight ap peared for the defendant. After the examination of several witnesses on the part of the prosecution, Mr. Rutler addressed the jury. He was followed by Judge Roise and P. C. Sullivan, and then W. AY. Thayer closed the argument on behalf of the State. Judge Iionham charged thejuryina few words and they were sent ont at 5:45 r. jr., at which time the Court ad journed. After half an hour's confine ment they sent word to the Judge they had agreed on a verdict, and the Court was again called to order. The jury filed into tfto room and took their seats. Judge Ronham asked the usual questions, and the jury pronounced their verdict, '"Not guilty of flic charges found in the indictment." Scarcely were the words out of the Foreman's mouth when the eaacr crowd that had awaited the verdict broke out into a loud, prolonged cheer, and it was some minutes before the Sheriff could restore "order in the Conrt." Mr. May's friends crowded around him with congratulations, while his eyes filled with tears oi gratitude at these demonstrations of joy on the part of his friends. The first ballot stood eleven for acquittal and one for conviction, and the second ballot re sulted in a verdict. The trial on the remaining indictments will be resumed to-morrow morning. Statesman. Tun Couxtky Thinks Otherwise. Mr. Greeley thinks he should be President. Fortunately the country knows better than he. Let us see : A President who would have said at the commencement of the rebellion, let the South go in peace. A President who wonld have ordered the generals "On to- Richmond" only fo'r defeat. A President who would have rnshed up to .Niagara to go through the stupid farce of negotiating a treaty of peace between the North and South, with a scalawag from Colorado as the princi pal on the Southern side. A President who would havo gone to Richmond to go upon Jeff. Davis' bail bond. APresi dent wlio would have bankrupted the country by trying to force specie pay ment. For the people, especially bus iness men, havo not forgotten how, at the close of the war, with gold away up in'ihe forties, Greeley used all the force of the Tribune to resume at once, crying daily, "The way to reach re sumption is to resume." If Greeley had been where he could have carried ont his policy then, he would have cost this country as much by financial dis aster as the war debt amounted to. Railroad Failure. Colonel Fre mont's speculations, as a general rule, have terminated disastrously.- They have, perhaps, been on too large a scale. His latest stroke of adverse fortune has been in the railroad line. A Texas paper of May "8th, says con cerning one of his enterprises, that the Alemnhis, El Paso ana Pacmc Kail road, wliich was orignall organized by him, with all its lands, property, rights, privileges and franchises, would ue sold to the lushest uiader lor cash at Paris. Texas, on Tuesday, the 4th ot June, lot under four decrees ren dered bv the United States Circuit Court lor the Western District of Texas, at its late terra at Tyler ; and also, at the same time, under execution on tnrcc judgments oi tne -District CourS of Lamar county, and one from Red River county. Texas. NO. 23. The State of Oregon vs. Samuel E. May. The third indictment, saya the Statesman of the 7th instant, against Samuel E. May, was tried yesterday, resulting in the acquittal of the de fendant. In the evening the conrt met to receive the verdict, and after its announcement, the remaining indict ments were all, on motion of the Pros ecuting Attorney, dismissed. Thus ended in a fiasco a prosecution begun for political effect, which came to bean elephant on the hands of its originators and an enormous expense to the coun ty, ending in the utter discomfiture of those who at first thought it a winning card in the late campaign. Mr. May is now a free man, at liberty to return to his home and family. The Mercury and Herald havo both made disgraceful attempts this week, to prejudico the public mind in the case of the State vs. S. E. May, against the defendant, while the trials wero in progress. We have known such pub lications to bo held as "contempt of of Court." To Purify a Rooir. Set a pitcher of water in a room, and in a few hours it will have absorbed all tho respired gases in the room, the air of which will become purer, but tho water per fectly filthy. Tho colder the w.ater is the greator the capacity to contain these gases. At ordinary temperature a pail of water will contain a pint of carbonic acid and several pints of am monia. Tho capacity is nearly doub led by reducing the water to the tem perature of ice. Hence, water kept in a room awhile is always unlit for use. For tho same reason the water from a pump should always bo pumped out in the morning before any of it is used. Impure wter is more injurious than impure air. o What is the most desirable age of life ? We put this question to a few friends lately, and received the follow ing replies, but do not consider any of them satisfactory : A banker thought coin-ago the best age ; a tailor, cabb age ; a soldier, pill-age ; a toper, vint age; a vicar, vicar-age; a hungry man, sausage; an ambitious lady, a carriage; a bravo man, courage; a dram-drinker, drainage ; a joker, bad in-age ; a musician, band-ago ; a slave owner, bound-age ; a laborer, cott-age ; a Scotchman, poorage, and two silly fools, marriage. State News.' The convicts in tho Oregon peniten tiary on the 10th ult. attempted to escape, and one ot their number was shot and killed by tho guard. Tho City Council of Portland, Wednesday, elected city officers as follows: Attorney, M. F. Mulkey; Auditor, W. S. Caldwell ; Street Com missioner, A. J. Marshall; Surveyor, W. S. Chapman. Portland, tho last fiscal year, paid 804,023 02 expenses. Balance in the Treasury, $54,C22 57. Mr. L. Samuel, Advertising Agent, is preparing to profusely illustrate the Traveller's Guide and Directory with Oregon and Washington scenery. S. Bean, mate of tho English ship Forward, has been held to bail on a charge of smuggling opium from China. A well-known man in Portland tried to shoot himself though the head tho other day; but he waited long enough for cnother man to run up town and :send a third man down to prevent the rash deed. He still lives, and his pis tol has been restored to him, in fqll confidence. The Annivery meeting of Young Men's Christian Association ot Port land, is to be held on 14th inst. Large quantities of wool arc being shipped f romUnion county to Portland. The Benton Democrat says: Tho late rains have been a great benefit to the farmers in this part of tho valley. Much ot tho late sown gram, which promised to bo too shoit to harvost, will now make an average crop. Rev. J. W. Van Clcvc, brother of "Coll.," and editor of Allbany Register, has gone and got married. Miss Bcllo Z. Gird w.-ts the cause ot it. Cornelius Gilfoy-stabbed and killed William Wales, at Portland, Wednes day evening. The Albany jail, has been empty for three months. They call an Indiana jtfdgo "Old Necessity" because ho knows no law. Why is a newspaper like an army ? Because it has leaders, columns and reviews. When does a man keep his word ? When nobody will take it. i A bluudcring Dubuque printer al ludes to an attorney-at-jaw.

Daniel Webster once said : There is nothing upon this earth that can compare with tho laith f ul attachment of a wife ; no crcaturo who, for tho object of her loye, is so indomitable, so persevering, so ready to suffer and die. Under the most de pressing circumstances, woman's weak ness becomes a mighty power, her timidity becomes fearless courage, all hei shrinking and sinking passes away, and her spirit acquires tho firmness of marble adamantino firmness when circumstances drive her to put forth all her energies under tho inspiration, of her affection. It is tho bubbling stream which flows gently, tho little rivulet which runs along day and night by tho farm house that is useful, rather than tho swollen flood or cata ract. Niagara excites our wonder, and wc stand amazed at the power and greatness ot God there, as it pours from the hollow oi His hand. But one Niagara is enough for a continent or the world while the same world re quires thousands and tens of thousands of silver fountains and. flowing rivn lets, that water every farm and mead ow aud garden, and that shall flow on every day and night with their gentlo quiet beauty. So with the acts of our lives. It is not by great deeds, liko the martyrs, that good is to bo dono, but by tho daily and quiet virtues'ot our life, the Christian's temper, tho good qualities of relatives and friends. A story is- told of a soldier who was frozen in Siberix Ilkjramark wasr "ex " ho then froze "asslfiTas mar ble. In the summer of 1BW some physicians found him, alter having lairj frozen for one hundred and Jiftcen years. They gradually thawed him, and upon animation being restored, ho concluded his sttntenco with "ceed ingly cold."
