'The following are the findings in the G ic rrviT Cocrt Dw'd Harvey vs. tie City fOnncil o Oregon City, and Km. 1. Barns, Assessor. ' This cae having been submitted upon , '-he ammended pleadings the evidence and i nrument of Counsel, the court hnds ; ' r Tint the said Daniel Harvey being dis - ' 9atifi'"i with the assessment of his prop ' y for the city taxation, applied by peti- : i t Sto the City Council for a reduction i " fhereSB on or about the 1 1th day of July, I ?

The Oregon Iron C.;npany have sent Chinese to Oswego to .; c.irry on thAvork of getting out ore, pre- 5 jtaring wood for coal, etc. It may be light,' but at all events we fail to see any a vantages the State Avill gain by the : movement. The people of Oswego remon strated against the plan of the Company respectful terms. We quote from their ; protest : 4 Jhsolccd, That judging from our expe rience in other localities, the fact has been ( demonstrated that the introduction of 0Piiinese, as laborers or residents, has proved 0; scathing blight upon every city, town or imilet where they have been introduced t upon this coast. litmolved.

That no white Jab-jrers have been discharged, and that there is no probability that any will be. Washington Tkrimtorv. We were glad t) receive a call recently from Mr. " Thompson Dray, of Cathlamet, Washing ton Territory. Mr. D. is quite an aged man, but is as vigorous and hearty as most : men who haveno more than attained the scale (vf years for'ctive life. This he at : tributes to the healthy location, in which i lie resides, lie settled in Wahkaecum county thirteen years since, and has never f desired to better his situation indeed, it would be hard(-io do so. even did he desire 3 it. The region abput Cathlamet is but sparsely settled, and yet there is an abun , dance of beautiful farming land in the . a icinity. The valley in which Mr. Dray I lives is seven miles in extent, and begins ot a point two .miles from the town of t "athlamet. The past year several new- comers have located there. They have a ro;nHaid out and leading to the Sound : country, and are everyway beginning -to 1 prosper. Six miles below Cathlamet is another valley, which Mr. D. says is better , land, and more extensive, than the one in - Attnch he resides) These lands can be pre ; pared for cultivation with more facility ; than lands generally throughout Ohio, the ; Sate from which Mr. Dray" hails. " (oms(i Byck. Ye hear the old story 1 rIrom various l,1:lcos- 'flot to come back y v; '-f'oot.' A relative in Michigan savs r S' Le can stand that country no longer. He , has dei ermined to come back to Oregon and I has fixed upon the locality at which he in- tends to settle permanently. Another old j mend who lived himself up prettily on the f11"! of the Hudson, is about to return : I V5Al: ld home here. Then a private note ; t 1YM pr. O. p. S.

If Oregonians were to " feel flattered" when it was ascertained Clackamas county flour sold at one dollar better on a barrel than the best California brands in New York, why may we not feel flattered at the success of Mr. Thomas Cross, of Salem, who has received a pro posal from the President of the P. M. S. S. Company, to furnish Oregon beef for all the steamships of that line in the Pacific. This will include the Panama line and the Colorado, or China mail route. Captain Eld ridge states that after thirty years ex perience at sea, and testing many qualities of beef, he hm never found any to equal the article put up by Thomas Cross. Mr. Cross recently received an account of sales from San Francisco for a choice lot of hams the return shows that his product brought, in round figures, 33 cents per lb. it will be well for farmers throughout the State to ponder over these facts. Hours His Owx. Meeting our friend Maj. J. S. Rn, on the street a few days since in company with another pioneer, the subject turned upon the date of arri val of the parties in Oregon. Major said he came in 1815, that then he was consid ered a good looking young man. "Well, says his companion, "I think vou hold your own pretty well.' "Yes,"" rejoined the Major, "1 am yet tolerably good look ing" which is a fact 'none the less impor tant when taken in connection with an other, that whenever there are any extra doings going on in town where ladies and gentlemen are associated, he is invs 1 in favor to act as commu t0'r & ladies. AVhy 01- frion,i is contcnt tQ ro a bachelor pczzles us somewhat, in.Q could surely find some excuse for mar rying. John AViikessaid he took a wife to ple;ise his friends, it would surely please the Major's friends to see him take one. Vacation. The City Seminary closed the term last evening for a vacation until Wednesday of next week. Mr. Pope has furnished us with the quarterly report, which we condense as follows : Primary Department Number of schol ars C7; average daily attendance 50, Intermediate Department No. of schol ars 71; average daily attendance 51.

The consolidation of all the express interests, and their centralization in Wells, Fargo it Co., have not in the least puffed up that concern. We are indebted to the Colum bia river messenger for Manny favors, and messenger WeU of the Ajax, not only laid upon our table full files of California prints, but tendered us a huge roll from Jack Stratman's JEuaiem depot. Come again. Oregon Crrr Paper. The San Fran cisco Ballei'm of the 2d iust, says in its cd'umereial report: "Samples of straw, manufactured at the Oregon City Taper Mill, re been received ; the quality is pronounevu equal to any imported from the East.'" should wonder if it wasn't a little better. Is Error. The Yu-uiina Bay corres pondent of the Orerjonia.i i'ys that recent ly he stood on heights back of Newport and watched a Portland steamot pursuing her lonely way southward. He v"is in error. Portland owns none such. J-" he undoubtedly belonged exclusively to Sl'R Francisco. A Few More Left. Mr. E. D. Kelly," across the way from this office, says he has a few more steel engravings of Washing ton on hand, which will be distributed to the purchasers of goods at his store. See advertisement of Fenian excitement, next week. Oregon Trade. During the month of January and February eight steamers ar rived at San Francisco from Portland, car rying an aggregate of 8,103 tons. For the same time nine steamers cleared for Portland, carrving 9.740 tons. In Limiso. George Russell, who was suspected of robbing one of the Alert's deck hands recently, passed through this city yesterday in chargo of Deputy Sheriff Elake of Portland.

We learn, savs the Herald of yesterday, that Weil Bros, have sold their business to Kohn & Fishel, who will re move to the new stand as soon as possible. Success to them. Rather Rocgii.

That is what every lady says who has used the Fam ily Dye Colors of Howe & Stevens. The fact plainly is that no other dyes have the slight est show, where these are about. Sold bv Smith & Davis. A Poor Man's Harvest.-AI Bar man Bros, they are selling Clothing and Gents Furnishing Goods at such low prices as must suit every mother's son. The Ajax has arrived, and Barman Bros, will open a fine assortment of spring suits, which are not only the latest in style, but the best in quality, says the Oregon ian. Please call on Barman Bros, and get their figures, which you will find to be exceedingly low. Patent Medicines. We have but little confidence in the trumpet tongutd statemeuts of the proprietors of advertised medicines generally, says the Salem (Mass.) Observer, but we are forced to concur in the opinion, uniformly expressed by all who have used Perry Davis' Pain Killer, that it is a very valuable article, and one that it would be well for every household to have at hand, in case of bruises, scalds, burns, diarrhoea, dysentery, cholera, fever and ague, and the host of diseases, external and internal, which it is adapted to cure or alleviate. No article of medicine ever attained to sucb .unbound ed popularity attd" expensive diffusion. It has penetrated to every part, even the most remote of the known world, bcar with it its healing influences rr.ore ootent than those of the spices 0f Araby the blest," We are llJfTuied bv our principal drujrarists, that than any or all others, and that the demand is constantly increasing. Miraculous Cure. Dr. William Heoley Dear Sir : I feel it but a duty to inform you and the public what a miracu lous effect vour Royal Balsam had on my wife. She had been affected with a severe cough for several weeks, which had assumed a dangerous feature, for which many physi cians have been trying without any material benefit, and all the remedies failed to gi.'e her any relief. Without relief was got, I feared for the worst, in her present condi--tion. The cough appeared to be worse at nigLt, she could get no rest when Mr. Ran dall, of this place, advised me to trv your Royal Balsam; all other remedies having failed, I concluded to try it, and I purchased two bottles. Strange to say, by the time I gave her three spoonsful of the Balsam she got relief, and slept, a thing she had not done for three nights previous. By the time she had taken one bottle the cough wa3 checked. Its effect was truly miraculous, as the cure was effectual ; hence, I have no hesitation in recommending the Royal Balsam to nil who are afliicted and it appears astonishing to me that medicine of such great merit, and I might say magical effect, is not more 111 use." Mv eandid opinion is: if persons use it once they never will be without it in the house. u. cochuax. Vancouver, March 1, 1867. ('24.tf AUCTION AND COMMISSION A. II. Riclaarclsoii, AUCTIONEER!
