T 29th of December, 1866, at 7 o clock P. M. By order of the INCORPORATORS. nrpnCitv. Nov. 24th, 1S6C 5:4w -e ' ; Public Improvements. We do not recol lect of an instance in which public im provement has been a grievance to pri vate rights, without compensation. In the matter of improving what is or should be Bluff street, this city is about to be at conflict with the private rights of Mr. Daniel Harvey, an old and esteemed citi zen of this place. Upon consulting the 44 Original Plat" we find that an error in which we had fallen, is very apparent. There is no Bluff street recorded upon the plat of Oregon City. What should be Bluff street is the private property of Mr. Ilarvey. But we will not for one moment suppose that that gentleman will interpose one obstacle to the "spread" of Oregon City. We believe that he will acquiesce in the imperative necessity of the laying out of Bluff street or, if he deem himself aggrieved, we believe the city will make to him due reparation for all damages he may sustain. Bluff street, it seems, wras intended by the lamented Dr. McLaughlin to supply one of the greatest necessities of our favored city. It was calculated for an immense canal, from which should be fed a long row of factories, a mile nearly in extent, along the bank of the noble Wil lamette. The modern designation of sired, should not in the least discommode the purposes of the original locator. The ground can be used to the greatest advan tage both as a street and a canal The half million, or more, horse power which passes our city daily, free, can be as easily cor;verted to the wants of the manufac turers mder the street, as it could in open 'daylight, hence we trust, with all due re spect for Mr. Ilarvey, that he will not as sesa the damages high, incident to the re- 'cent action of the Board of Supervisors We do not think he will. We believe him to be prompted by juster motives, and consequently think that Bluff street will be opened without any unnecessary ex pense. It is hw right, which we hope to see him sustained in, that the first princi ples of the grant revolve to. his personal benefit. Under the late ordinance, Mr. G. II. Belden, than whom there is no more perfect civil engineer, assisted bv Mr. A Thompson, have made a practical survey of Bluff street, and the same will be re ported at an early meeting of the city council. Almost a Fire. -On Saturday last about 12 o'clock, meridian, a rear portion of Col. Moss' building, on the corner of "Fourth and Main streets was discovered to be on fire having caught from a flue. No serious injury was done, but the cir cumstance forcibly reminded everybody that Oregon City is just now greatly at the mercy of the elements without fire engine y 1 1 . 1 1.

P.ut who shall we blame for our not being supplied with good waterworks? unless it be monied men M ho will not see the glorious opportunity for investment. Ouegov Woolen- Mitls. Twenty-eight -cases of the new machinery for the Oregon City Manufacturing Company arrived by the Oritlamme. The Herald says : " This Factory is putting forth endeavors to be come the leading Factory on the coast." It is all of that now : what are you think ing of, Daly. The Oregon City Company can dispose of all the goods they can make and do it now right in San Francisco, alongside the 'famous'' Chinese factories of California, not excepting the high-toned Mission Mills, with its "SoOO.OOO capital stock." Oregon City is now second to none in this line upon the coast. c, Christmas Ball. We are informed by Messrs. White A lliio.ides that they propose giving on Christinas night a grand ball in their new hotel, which is now nearly com pleted. They hope, weather permitting, to be enabled to open their house for the reception of guests by that time. The pleasure seeking young folks who desire social amusement on such occasions will find the proprietors of our new hotel on hand, and we are assured that they will spare no pains or means to make all agreeable and pleasant. Runaways. We had been congratula ting ourself upon the safety of life and limb in Oregon City, consequent upon the unfrequency of runaways of horse?. But we are more recently inclined to think that there is here greater uncertainty of those perquisites especially belonging to the animal. Twice or thrice teams have recently ran away, upon the bluff. Fortu nately the horses turned upon some street before dashing over the precipitous rocks and landing upon terra finna at least three hundred feet below their proper desti nation. Acctiox Sale. As will be seen by ad c vertisement, our fellow townsman Mr. J. S. McDonald proposes to sell, on Saturday next, the entire furniture and fixtures of the Willamette House. The building is to be refitted, and .improved, and will be opened as a No. l saloon, under the pro prietorship of Mr. Forrest, late of the firm .of Mann & Forrest. Clackamas County. The assessor's re turn for Clackamas county shows a total raluation of real and personal property, amounting 0 $1,042,818. The exhibit of finances will be found There are l.fiOU persons in the countv who pay poll ts.x. Last year we had 1,534 voters. Visitors. On Sunday last several gen tlemen and ladies from Portland availed themselves of the extra trip of the Alert to visit our city, and besides viewing the sub lime works of nature which abound here, they attended chnrch. Cocxtt TAXES.--Sberiff Burns desires us to remind tax-payers that they have but four days in which to pay taxes without extra, cost. See advertisement. Home made Agricultural Imple ments. Nearly all the agricultural implements used upon this coast are manufactured on the other side of'the continent We make a few plows and an occasional harrow, and sometimes turn out a wagon, but the reapers, mowers, rakers and threshing machines, together with a lonir list of smaller implements, are brought around the Horn, and of course are sold at a handsome profit. Farming, labor is so high in this country that agricultural ma chines have come into general use. Noth ing will come amiss which will save labor and expedite farming operations. Wher ever our mechanics have addressed them selves to the task of producing any ma chine to meet an industrial want, thev have generally been successful. We do not send abroad for quartz mills or saw mills ; but we send abroad for half a mil lion dollars' worth, more or less, of ari- cultural implements annually: which ought to be purchased at home and will be at no distant day. We lately saw a portable steam-engine, buiit in Portland which could easily be ad apted to run a thresh- mg-mashine in the fields, which surpassed any engine of the sort procured at the East. If an engine for farming purposes can be made at home which challenges competition, then we judge that any other agricultural machine can be made at home. It is true that there are natpnte rm most of the best mowing, reaping and threshing machines, though some of them have recently expired. But the patentees sell licenses to manufacture, in most in stances, to whoever desires to establisl himself in the business. The successful manufacturers are, in many cases, not the patentees. There would be no difficulty probably, in obtaining all the requisite li censes to make these implements in Ore gon. We may not have so many resources in the way of timber as are found in the Atlantic States. But timber can be brought to the country as advantageously as iron. Besides, we have native timber, more or less valuable, which is now used successfully by farmers in making har rows, stocking plows, mending wagons, etc. There is hardly an agricultural im plement that might not be improved by Oregon skill, and thus better adapted to farming requirements on this coast. The great manufacturing establishments at the East have yielded large fortunes to their owners ; and even now the business is not outdone. There are pioneer difficulties in the way of all new industrial enterprises. But surely, now that we make our own leather, furnish our own castings and grind our own wheat, the time cannot be distant when we shall make such farming implements as are required for our own use. Capital is accumulating and will soon be abundant enough for any safe manufacturing investment We have home-made brooms and barrels ; it is time that we had home-made reaping, mowing and threshing machines, and we are pleased to know that our friend J. W. Lewis, of this City, has some intention of embarking in the business soon in a gen eral way, on a large scale. His Union Plow cannot be beat at present; and farmers are advised to give him a special call. Correction. Last week we were a lit tle vexed at seeing a pool of blood at our door one fine morning, and made mention of it, basing our remarks upon rumors which caused us to believe that it came in consequence of the dissipation of a Mr. Shields. True : he was the man who bled; but we liave since been informed that he was m no way to blame. He had been in vited to attend the call given overhead by the Good Templars ; was met on the stairs by two men not participants of the party, and was assaulted by them, being knocked down by a club in the hands of one man, and then beaten by them both. He was entirely blameless, and we regret that we have caused a wrong impression to go abroad concerning an innocent man. The Weather. This very popular theme has been the topic of conversation in this vicinity for a week. The Weather has been delightful. We have not felt that it was Winter, but more that Autumn was wandering on down the descending path. The course of the wind has been free from the Noit'i, almost the ent re week, but a drift to the Soiitr on Thursday night brought us a few drops of rain. Serenade. The past week has been such a beautiful one that we believe it has been enjoyed by all. The evenings were extremely propitious, not only for moon light proraenaders, but for the beautiful serenades of the Oregon City Crass Band, under the leadership of Mr. Thomas F. Miller. The pure atmosphere of midnight was resonant with the strains of music on Thursday evening, and the players kindly remembered us, in their round. If feel ings are any guide, we abound in grateful thanks to them for their favor. Let is Have One. Since the volunteer fire department of San Francisco has been disbanded and a paid one substitute! in its stead we learn that hand and steam en gines, with jumpers and carriages, can be purchased at extravagantly low prices. Now is the time when Oregon City should put in an offer for a fire engine. Real Estate Sale. The land sold by Capt. Hedges on Tuesday last being 320 acres of the estate of Wm. Arthur, Sen., deceased was purchased by Mr. Michael Fuller, at the low figure of Sl.COO a good bargain for the purchaser. Mr. Dcncan.3 Successor. Mr. Wortley, late of the Willamette Woolen Factory, at Salem.has taken the superintendency of the Factory in this City. Mr. R. II. Duncan, late Superintendent, has left, to take charge of the Brownsville Factory. . Tue Lyceum. The question for discus sion next Tuesday evening before the ly ceum of this city is upon the subject of the United States assuming an immediate protectorate over the Republic of Mexico.

As a tonic it will be fotnd invaluable to all persons recovering from debility, whether produced by fever or otherwise, for whilst it imparts to the system all the glow and vigor that can be produced by wine or brandy, it is entirely free Irom the reactionary effects that follow the use of spirits of any kind. It is also an excellent remedy for females who suffer from difficult menstruation, giving almost immediate relief to the spasms that so frequently accompany that period.

Dr. BoraxE: Last Winter I was nearly dead, bv an attack of inflammatory rheuma 'tism. "I suffered the most excruciating pains for about five weeks, without anv hope of relief, when a friend hearing of my illness, called to see me, and assured me that if i would stop '-drugging and dosing" and go to you, that you would have me walking about the streets i n three days. Sure enough, although I was utterly helpless, and cou . veyed to vour house in a carriage, and car ried into it by three stout men, and by thcrh lifted into the bath, yet, on coming out of it, I largely assisted myself, doing much to wards dressing, and, without assistance, walked from the bath to the carnage. On the fourth day I discharged my carriage and walked, with a friend's aid, the entire dis tance to your house (nearly a .'mile) and home arrain. and so on until cured. I felt myself a well man. And now I am happy to"do you this little service, of publicly cer tifying to the simple truth, leaving it to do its" work among my friends and acquaint ances as may chance to see this. Your friend, JOSEPH SPARROW. CONS UMPTION! An Interesting Letter. Tery few persons, even among physicians, would have been willing upon any terms to have been in the condition of the writer of the following letter on the 14th of February lust. I will anticipate somewhat his report of the facts by saying that on the loth of August he made me a. visit, " the very pic ture of good health " Time, which tries and proves all things, has sulliciently tested this case, and shown that neither relapse nor collapse have followed, the cuie is .perfect, and can be cited anions the scores of similar cases' the result of my improved mod of treating diseases without medicine.

AJULK-NE JL'ill Oil . 1"' 1 villi" pleasure and srjtisfaction that 1 now let you know of my good health. Looking back gj upon whajt 1 have passed through, it seems i as if I had been lifted from the grave, and I think it my duty to acknowledge to you and the world the benefit I derived fro a water treatment as administered by you in your celebrated baths. It was in August 1304, when disease developed itself with a severe cough. I then took medicines, getting worse with "chills, fevers, loss of strength, and was profiounced consumptive. This set me to thinking, and finally 1 determined to leave my business and go to the Sandwich Islands, having been informed that I could not be cured here. I went to San Francisco, and while waiting for a ship called upon Dr. Bourne, who stated that a trip to the Islands would probably result disastrously, was wholly unnecessary, as I could be specdilv cured at his establishment. I placed myself nnder his treatment, and in one week wan so much improved I thought I could risk re turning home and do my duty as Engineer on the Central .Pacific Railroad. The Doc tor objected, but I thought I knew better, and returned to duly. In about two weeks my cough returned, and I kept getting worse, and contrary to Dr. Bourne 5 injunc tion never to take medicine again, ccminitted that folly, and soon was so completely run down that 1 could scarcely walK; so, as a last resort, I concluded once rioreto try th Water Cure. I went to San Francisco few of my friends expecting me to return; in fact I thought my return doubtful. On ar riving at Dr. Bourne's establishment (Feb. 14, IbiJo) I was not able to t into the bath without assistance, but in a tew days I beg;a to recover myself again. I remained with him only six weeks, when I felt a "wiser and better man," without the aid of medi cine. I have kow been at work several weeks, and find that I am gaining every day and at present bid fair to be stouter than ever before. Persons visiting the Doctor's establishment find it just what it should be, both in the Ladies' and Gentlemen's Depart ments, and I cannot say too muca in praise of the Doctor's kind attentions to his pa- This letter I wtite for tho benefit of all tho ailiicted, to be used as the Doctor decides, and should it be the means of directing any to his care and treatment who (as they as suredly will) find relief, I will be paid for my trouble. JAMES CAMPBELL, Engineer Central l'acitic Railroad. Sax Fraxcisco, Aug. 22, 1605. Advised by the undersigned, Mr. James Campbell, of the Central Pacific Railroad, (who was then in a most deplorable state of kill health) placed himself under the care ot fDr. Bourne, the Wafer Cure Physician. Some six months afterward he visitca the city; when I accidentally met him at Dr. Bourne's establishment, and am happy to say, restored' to the enjoyment of j'ood health, and in fine spirits. John sulliTan. rjr Dr. Bourne treats all diseases of the throat, chest and lungs which includes dip theria, bronchitis, incipient consumption, pleurisy, croup, etc.,' with great success. Great relief is afForded in a'dvanced stages of consumption. Rheumatism, paralysis, neu ralgia, fever and aguc,.droDsy. etc, etc., arc also cured quickly, pleasantly and econom ically. No medicine whatever. Dr. Bourne takes the liberty to publish tb? above a- many persons had "prophesied Itis relapse into his former condition, on return ing to his duties, of the writer of an ' Inter esting Letter," whese statements concerning the care of a well defined case of consump tion have recentlv attracted ko much atten tion to the Water Cure, as improved unou and practised by Dr. Bourne. This addi tional testimony must prove satisfactory to all reasonable mind?. It should be remem bered that Dr. Bourne uses no medicine whatever, and that his patients almost uni versally are those who failed to receive re lief from the medical practitioners; 3-et tber are cured with great rapidity, and iu"a pleas ant aad agreeable manner.
