f ' V Uccefp 'gre'g'on gfateman. SALEM, TUESDAY, OCT. 15. THE CITY AND COUNTY. From Daily vi Wednesday Oct. 9. HOY, BSnTS ADDRESS. A Ijirpe Crowd in Attendance In teuae utbuiHkiu. Notwithstanding the delny in securing the ball and tbe brief space of time allowtrt for cin-nlatinp tfao announcement, Heed's Opera House wan well filled la-st evening tt, lis. ten to the address of Got. Bennett of Idaho Territory on the political issues ol the day. In Uie lower portion of the hall the g-ata were all occupied and persons coming in late were compelled to stand, and we also noticed a large number in the ralkry. The ladies as usual graced tbe aie-tiug ly their presence, and evidently look no little interest in the proettdingu. Ctov. Bennett was introduced hy Hon. Joteph G. Wilson, Congressman elect from this State in his usual, flowery style, after which the speaker proceeded" to propound Republican doctrinu in a plain straight forward manner. He traced the record of the party during the pant few years, paid a handsome tribute to its acknowledged lead ders. showed up the Iemocratic reform (?) in its true light, delivered crushing blows rf scathing rebuke at tiie bulwarks of the Greeley supporters, touched lightly jut in a conclusive manner on tiie attacks mode by Democrats on the personal cliaraeter oi Gen. Grant, and in a general way, knocked the props from under the so called '-Libera! reform movement, and snowed tiie iusidt workings of the machine in anything bm an acceptable manner to the friends of tlu "Old wnite hat." Gov. Bennett has a pleas ing manner while on the stage and a con trolling power over his hearers that showt itself in the close attention paid to bis re marks. His remarks were interspersed with an occasional comical yarn that served to keep the audience in excellent humor ai the same time being well adapted to tin subject in hand. Taken altogether tlu meeting was a grand success and proved more tiian ever that tiie popularity of tin Republican cause in Salem would make it selt more than manifest in the coming fal. election. Keep the ball rolling and on tin evening of the 5th of November next wi will surprise onr Greeley friends by tht majority we will roll up for Grant aud Wil son. A Dabiso Robbery. A tin peddler named Wallace who was here during tin lair, was robbed of S2M in coin ou the loau between Dallas and Monmouth yesterdu ft.renoon about eleven o'clock. He a driving his team quietly along the roaa when suddenly two men closely masti. stepped out from some underbrush and pre senting tircarms told Waliace to fork ovei his loose cliange, which he proceeded to d with the bast grace possible under the cir cumstances. The men decamped as sud denly as they appeared, and Wallace drovt back to Dallas and placed the aflkir in tin hands of the proper authorities who an. now in search of the robbers. Ax Extra Session. This question fee rut to bo agitating the mind of parties inter ested just at present. Can the Legislative Assembly transact its business in the time prescribed by law, or will the Governor bt compelled to call a special session for th purpose of -numbing up. Ths meuibcd tiave entered into the work since the Fan closed as though they meant to get througi anvwav. But there is an immense amoum uTwork accumulated, and many doubt tin cbility of the present session to walk tlirougl it all within Uie next ten days. It remain, to be seen. What Next? Nowthaifthe State Fair is over and the Legislature drawing to a ciose. the question arises what will we have next to keep up an excitement. We have be come so accustomed to exciting (trues dur ing the past six weeks- it will come rather rough on us to settle back into the old groves again and run on in the natural course. But what we have done we can no doubt do again so let it come. Rushing Business. Beed's Opera House was in excellent demand last evtutng. Gov. Bennett commenced speaking at 7 o'clock and continued for one nour and a ball" after which Waldron's Theatrical Troupe plaved their regular evening engagement. Two performances in one evening at the same luul is something unusual for salem. Orr tor Gsaxd Rosdk. Mr. D. P Thompson and B. P. Earhart, Esq., started for Grand Konde Indian Reservation yester day to complete the allotment of lands to the Indians. The work is nearly completed and they will probably return to too city within a few days. Malheur Ixdiax Keservatiox. This new Reservation, selected in August last by Superintendent T. B. Odeneal, has been ap proved and established bv order of Uie President. This will no doubt prove of great interest to our readers in luastern ure- gon. Pebsoxal. Dr. Wm. B. Caldwell, of Portland, a young physician of rising fame, has been appointed attendant physician at Grand KonOb Agency, anu wui stun to-aay to assume the duties of nis new position. Special Notice. The annual meeting of the Oregon Children's Aid Society at two o'clock p. M. at the M. E. Church to-day. All members arc requested to be present. From Daily of Thursday Oct. 10. BADLY M'AKEI). A Printer's Experience Daring '1'nuutler storm, We hare often beard of the timidity of some people during a thunder storm, and we have a case in point which is so amusing mat we cannot reirain ironi muuig j.. Some time since a printer employed in one of the offices of this city, went home early to the boarding house in which be liad only recently taken lodgings ; and. retiring to bed early, be was awakened near midnight by the noise of a violent storm. He there npon got np and lighted the lamp, and then sat down on tke bed in a perfect tremble of i fear. Meantime the landlady, hearing a noise in the adjoining room, and forgetting about the boariler, wakened her husband up and told him there was a burglar in the bouse. He jumped out of bed, and seizing an old rusty sword, which hung on a naU in the wall, he proceeded to search the premises for the supposed robber. Coming to the door of tue boarder's room, he saw the light, and at once made up his mind (not knowing that his wife had taken the printer to board) that a struggle would be neces sary to secure the intruder. Mustering all hi courage, therefore, be rushed into tbe room, sword in band, and demanded thai the frightened printer should surrender 1 Tue see fie was no lest startling than re dicnlous, and the feelings of the innocent printer can better be imagined than de scribed. He proclaimed his innocence in ntanter, and announced himself a genuine boarder and no mistake, which explanation molined and disarmed the landlord, and es pecially so wben the printer's story was confirmed by the landlady herself. Tiie printer was then questioned as to the cause of bis bains op at that time of the night, wben he replied that he was frightened by tbe thunder and lightning 1 A good hearty laugh ensued, and a fcw momenta later the printer was toft to his own reflections for the remainder of the night. The GovEBBom'i Receptjos. One of the principal events of Salem's greatest Mason the Legislative session wsa the recep tion last evening, by Gov. Grover and lady at their beautiful residence in South Salem. All the notables of Oregon, incloding the creame de la creme of fashion were there, the throng being a particularly brilliant one for even the Capital which seta np these af faire in better style than any of her more pretentious- neighbors. Of distinguished men there were a greater number -than of ten fall to'fhe lot or any one in Oregon, to entertain together ex-Governors, an ex Benator -a Senator elect, Secretary, Treas urer, and other dimitariee of State.' State Senators-and Bgprosontaavsa, Judges of the ' Siiitreine Court, etc, etc-, almost without limit ; and a greater number of beautiful and richly dreawd ladies than we should dare to attempt mention of. The Governor and bis accomplished ladv did the honors with a simple democratic grace and ease that did them immense credit and won the hearts of alL The assemblage did not fully disperse till a late hour, and we are sure 1 no one left without a sense of having spent an nnusuallr oleasant evenine. Two Torso Rascals. On Monday morn- ' ifig ot this week the thieving operations of i twp young boys, both of whom were under ' twelve years of age, and if the boys bad ' been taken before a magistrate they wonld i in all probability have been sent to jail for ! n iew uays. une amy ism weea a gentleman borrowed a fine double barrelled shot gun wotth about Hi which ha set up in the corner of Jiis kltohea until he had use, for the same. The boys who had noticed the transaction through an open door watched rheir chance and secured it with a lot of hunting equipments that were with it. They took it home and hid it under the house. Snnday morning they took it ont and started jar the country to enjoy a days sport But their joy was turned to grief before night, for on their return in th fit they were met by a gentlemen who recog- nasad 'the fowling piece and asked the J ooro wnere taey got it. Tlwy were so ter- rilled that they confessed their guilt and i surrendered their fire-arms without further . ado. We withhold the boy's name simply J on account oi tne mother who has done ail in her power to make the boys repent of their thoft by administering to them a so severe punishment-' - i . . , list iTEEATsaOwiag to other ettrao tieoia the audience at the Opera House last exening Is the smallest that has greeted Waldron since tho season opened.

The streets last eve ning were alive with rumors of various kinds eonceniinT an encounter that took place on the corner opposite tae Ctierneketa Hotel. We made several inquiries but as is usually the case in instances like this it is aluiott impossible to make any reports qf the affair agree. Every person we futer viewed last evening gave us a different ver sion of the story and we can do no more tuan give the facta as we heard them. The participants ra the affray were Messrs. Lap peus, Fay, Semple and Trevitt. It seems that Mr. Sethple was coming up Commercial street behind Mr. Lappeus when the latter wheeled around and struck him with a cane. Mr. Seniple drew his revolver and his first impulse was to fire but he changed his mind and used the bntt end of the weapon as a means of defense. Jlessrs pay itnd Trevitt happening to come alung at "that time and seeing that Lappeus was getting the worst of it pitched into Semple aud the three got away with him in a haty manner. it seems to uh as though the emits were rather large against 11 r. Sample but as we were not an eye witness we may not know all the circumstances of the case. From Daily of Friday Oct. 11. Grand Jubilee. The citizens of this place are maaing extensive preparations tor a grand illumination and reception to be held at Reed's Opera House next Tuesday evening in honor of the Legislative Assem bly, aud an a token of appreciation of favors granted our city by that body during thj present session. li will in fact be a grand jubilee over the passage of the Capitol Ap propriation Bill, and it is the intention of those having the matter in hand to make it the grandest affair of the season. It will end up by a grand ball, and the music en gaged tor the occasion will be the lxst that can be stcured. Everything will be ar ranged in first class style, and a good time be indulged in by everybody regardless ol party, sect, or cretd. ft will be an occasion lor every one to rejoice. Over $o00 has al ready boen raised to defray expenses, anu mucli more been promised. Invitations have been sent abroad, and there will no doubt be a great number of visitors pres ent. Look out for a brilliant displsy ol "fair women aud brave ineu" to say noth ing nf other attractions to numerous to mention." We predict that our little cin wJJ jiL-rt "spread" herself on this occasion and show Uie outside world tiiat we still 'live and move, and liare our being" not withstanding the occasional slurs thrown out about our lack of public enterprize. ENCoinAcrMo Immioeatios. Two very important Bills to tiie people of t.iis Stau have just passed Uie Senate aud will be brought up in the House- to-day for further action. One of tuem provides fur tuo ap pointment of a Board of Commissioners ol Immigration, whose duty it shall be to col lect and dirr'use information regarding th soil, chmaie, reaomct, etc., of Oregon, by the publication of reliable statistics. Tht gentlemen mentioned as members of said Board are well known throughout the StaU as trustworthy and competent. They re ceive no salary, only necessary travelling expenses, their headquarters to be at Port land, where an office will bo opened. Ttti Bill is well guarded, and should it pass will prove of untold value to the entire State. Tne other bill authorizes the appointment of Gen. E. L. Applegate, ef Lane Co.. as Commissioner of Immigration. He will, immediately on receipt of hid appointment, proceed East aud scatter information abroad in his own inimitable style. The apnouit ment is an excellent one. Mr. Applegate is a gentleman well posted in the affairs of tht Suite, aud by his efforts the pjpulation ot the State will no doubt be greatly increased. These bills are not of a political nature, and we h pe to see them go through with flying colors. Special Ixvitatios. I he editors, re porters, clergymen, Professors of Colleges, teachers of astronomv (either visiting or residing at Salem.) State officers and mem bers of both Houses of the Legislature, to gether with their lady friends, are specially invited to assemble a't the Court House at 7 o'clock this evening, to witness a trial of the 'Planetarium and "Revolving Planis phere." An opportunity will be afforded fur asking questions and'making investiga tions generally. Bhoulu Uie visitors uesire. Prof. Clianey will "cast a Horoscope on a blackboard, so that all may see, and mal e such explanations as may be desired. To do these things, visitors should be prepared with dates of birth, giving hour an minute as near as possible. Please be prompt, as the doors will be closed at half past seven. X. B. The general public is not invited, but will have an opportunity next week, as trvot. Clianey will commence a course ot seven lectures next monoay nignt. Rettrxed Home. Messrs. D. P. Thomp son and R. P. Earhart returned to Sakm vesterdav from their trip to Grand Ronde Asencv, having finished the allotment of land to the Indians, and closed np business in that line, car less dimculty was met with than was anticipated in the choice of lands, and peace and harmony reigned su preme during tne aisposai oi mis anm-ooriate government, gift to the Indians and "Lo" was as a general tiring highly elated over the posession of real es tate, it maxes mm icei morecivinzea man ever, and before long he mav look down with silent contempt upon the "poor white trash." Excellent results are looked for ward to in appreciation of Uncle Sam's gen erosity. This Evksino. C. A. Reed has extended an invitation to the officers and members of both Houses to attend the theatre this even ing and witness the rendition of the great Shakesperian play of "Macbeth." The in vitation was accepted and we may expect to see our distinguished visitors on hand to night in goodly numbers. The piece is a popular one, and Mr. Waldron's rendition of the leading character is equal to the best. We hope our citizens will turn out and give him a full house. He has done much to ward entertaining us and his financial suc cess should be made sure. This will be his last evening with us, and we urge upon our readers to give him a rousing send off. Re member that reserved seats can be secured during the day without extra charge. Tbe Appbopbiatiox Bill. This, which to SalcmiJes is the most important bill be fore the Legislative Assembly received its finishing touch by that body yesterday, hav ing received the signature of the presiding ofheer of both Houses. The "one thing ne.-dfur" now is the signature of the Gov ernor, when it will become a law. This b.U huR received a very liberal support in bjth H rases, and now that it has passed througa "the fierv ordeal" we can but con gratulate our readers upon the final success of the enterprise. The huxceb pbovokixo otsteb is again t'tnpun, the appetites of all lovers of the bi valve. By the way, Charlie Hellenbrand, on Commercial street, has a knack of get ti xg ih in np in styles to suit the taste of the most dainty epicrue.

The Committee having secured the services of Mr. II. M. UcFratice; Pres. blent of the Commercial College of Portland, a competent book-keeper, as clerk, proceeded to give the books, eXjK'nditurcs and accounts of the Com mission and SujKTintendcnt a thorough and complete examination. The re port ot Mr. De France ou the correct ness of the vouchers issued and the re ceipts for money expended, agreeing with the books kept, is herewith an nexed. Your Committee have personally ex.imiued. fii-sr. tbe outlay and expeu- J diture of the $50,000 appropriated by the last Legislative Assembly tor the coi'structio'i of permanent Peniten tiary building, and find they have 1 sec u characterized by carefulness ;u.l exactness. Secondly, that the Super iutendei.t of the Penitentiary lias fur nished, as pjr printed report, mate rials, caJi and convict labor to ti e amount of $3-s,0l3 .'10. all of which lias lieen appropriately and advantageous ly expended.

The prices paid foi each article of merchan dise or labor Ins been the subject of critical examination, and we find theinio be the lowest market rate bli the quality of goods purchased or labor performed, and that the purchases have been made with a view to saving to tbe State as much as possible.
