The horses are in good order, well trained and the tumbling and gymnastic performances were xcel lent. We believe everybody was pleased with the performance. Thkatkr. By reference to our adver tising columns, it will be seen that Mr. F. .M. JJates, the popular and successful thea trical manager, has taken what is kaowa t the "Wigwam" at Salem, and converted it into a theater, where a dramatic season will be performed, lasting during the fitting of the Legislature and State Fair, by a splendid company. Mr. Bates is .master of bis profession, and we know ihat be give satisfaction to all" who Miiiy give him ttieir patronage.

"We were .pleased to notice a marked im '(rovenKiBt in the Governor's health, and we feel saxitsfied that he will be physically enabled to meet the emergency which awaits biea on the 12th of September. He was very cordially received by his many frtwids at Portland, nd serenaded on the evening of hihrriral. To Open.- We sees, some very cheap notices stuck up around town.to the effect that the Oregon City Seminary will com mence next Monday. We presume that the manager of that institution thought it too expensive to advertise the fact, so he posted up written notices, which bo one would see. The tax-payers of this city would be glad if the manager wonki ex hibit the same degree -of economy i-a oth er matters. Linn Cocxtt Faib We acknowledge I toe receipt fromMrS. E.

As the wagon -containing the lions belonging to the Circus was pass inf through town last Thursday, the bind -wheel came off and threw a man on the seat with the driver to the ground, his head striking on a stone. It stunned him for a while, but no serious injury was re ceived. Sap Accident. A mule team ran away last Friday., in which was Mrs. D. Wright, and threw her out of the wagon, severely injuring her angle.. Dr. Ross was called and we learn that she is doing well. " NeV Goods. Some of our merchants are in receipt of their fall stock of goods. Mr. John Myers received an addition to his stock last TuesdSy ; Mf. Caufield also received some good.?. S. Ackerman has returned from San Francisco with a large and well selected stock for the trade. -. New Stoke. Capt. Z. C. Norton has purchased a stock of goods and will open a store on his farm, about eight miles from this city, abr ut the 1st of September. Gone. Mr. Jf M. Moore, an fcfid citizen ot this place, left here last Thursday on a visit to Missouri, which place he left for Oregon 27 years ago. and now returns to view the scenes ol his early life. ' Sold. The city has disposed of the old engine to Mr. J. it. Moore, who proposes to put her in order and run her with water power in his establishment in case of lire. We have not learned the price paid. Sickness. We learn tht considerable ague exists at present in ouf town. Most of the officers on the upper river boats are afflicted with the '-blessing." They probably get it abafd and bring it here. Rain. We had quite a refreshing rain last Sunday and Monday. It did no dam age but a great deal of good in putting out the fires which had been raging in the woods. We also had some rain on Friday. An Error. The eensUs taker for this county, evidently made a mistake in his report of the number of Chinamen. He returns 33, when there are 40 employed in the factory alone in this city, besides two wash-houses and a number employed in private families.' - Drunks Quite a number of drnnks have been visible in town during the week. Meeting. We have been requested to give notice that a meeting of the German citizens of this city and vicinity, will be held at the Court House, this (Friday) evening. Rye. We were shown last week, by J. Flieschner, Esq., some very fine rye, rais ed near Albany. Linn county. It was full and looked as tine as any we have eve r seen. Gone to Salem. Sheriff Bills, of Mult nomah county, passed through here last Sunday, having in charge James Wilson, who was convicted ot highway robbery and sentenced to the penitentiary lor the term of eight years. Books. Mr. John Fleming has a new card in to-day's paper. He has a fine stock of books and stationery. Fire The moss on the roof of a China wash-house ignited last Thursday. It was discovered in time to preveutauy damage. Oregon Chops Oregon is reported at i per cent, below average in her wheat crop this year Tn the report of the Com missioner ot Agriculture. We would be satisfied il wre supposed that these mia re presentations were made ignorantly, but such cannot be the case, as every paper in the tate has published the fact that our crops are above uverage. Is it done to relief California, which is placed at 15 per cent, fceiow average? There is some thing wrong in these statements. Do Or egon justice. Prkuioi Blttek Dr. J. C. Hawthorne offers a private prerniUm at the next State Fair of a riding saddle worth s75 00 to the lady that made and put up the best twenty-five pounds of butter belore the 1st of July of this year.. His object in offering the premium was to incite persons to make a godd "article of keeping buttllf and to show that a superior gride can be made in Oregon as well as elsewhere. .We hope that there will be a lively competition for this liberal premium. The Or.egonian. has much to say about the indebtedness of certain Democratic counties. . Will that paper giye us the names of any counties that have been or are now under Radical control which are not indebt, or were turned over to th Democracy, free from indebtednes? In his own county the Democracy had to pay off a little debt of 46,000 which his patty left when they went out of office. All the counties which are in the hands of Radi cals are indebt. The Radicals should be very still on this subject. Magazines. We have received Harpers' Monthly for August, Ballon "s. and a new magazine entitled Old and New, published by Houghton & Co., Boston, and edited bv Edward E. Hale, sent us by V. E. Loomis. of San Francisco. These maga zines are, s usual, very interesting. The Big Tender of Ben. Holladay says that we are hankering after a notice from him, but that he " need be in no hurry that sort of game can be bagged at any time." We would advise the Tender to hurry up, as his occupation will probably be gone alter the Senatorial election. Take Youf. Own Pape&. -A cotemporary very justly remarks that every democrat ouht to take his own county paper." If he loves democratic principles he sureiv can axiom trie price per week it costs to pav for a local pa- per, ana tnereDy neip to spreau . i i i i i i them. I he cost ol a paper is no excuse for not taking one. There is not a week passes but that five t mes that amount is spent ioolish- lv. which minht much better have which would thus bu v more read me? matter than five times the amount invested in the shape of books. A man may read books all his life, but if he fails to read the Ku i I Wltnoul papers he may be called, ignorant. a newspaper a man is virtually out ot the world.

Californians, as a rule, take nothing for granted. Ary article that lacks intrinsic merit is sure to be a failure in she Golden State. Twelve years ago HOSTKTTER'S STOMACH BITTERS were qull'y intro duced here; Their uses were plainly .set forth, and the communit.y was invited to give them a fait trial, as a remedy lor dyspepsia, biliousness; intermittent and remittent fevers, general dehilitv, nervous a flections, and all the ordinary diseases Of the digestive and secretive organs. They Were also re commended as an appetizing and Invigorat ing preparation, and a- a preventive ot'eom plaiits of an epidemic character. The result rnav be summed up in a few words. A de mand for the article immediately sprang Up, and has ever since been increasing in a pro pressive nuin4 until HOSTETTER'S BIT TERS have become a leading commercial staple in the California market, and along the whole Pacini! seaboard, from Central America to British Columbia. The con sumntion of the irreat vegetable tonic and restorative in the Pacific States alone, is up wards of oke. million bottles per year, and it- ponularitv overshadows that of every other medicine, proprietary or otherwise, sold on this side of the continent. This fact is so notorious that it is like repeating recognized truism to put it in print. SinCC the introduction of the BITTERS the de mand for the adulterated liquors of corn merce has gradually declined, both in the cities and at the mines. The perfect purity of the article, its restorative and preventive properties, and its -admirable adaptation to thA want of a nertnle too prone to exhaust ive labor of body and mind, are appreciated hv thi medical profession, and it is pre- eorihPil as a stomachic and alterative to the exclusion, in a great degree, of all the un- medicated alcoholic stimulants.
