Any parson wishing to subscribe for the T imes and pay in wood will please tote it this way. D c r a x c e V i l e . — Tho young man who was arrested a couple of weeks ago for robbing Mr. Cole, of Eola, of a sum of money, and who was .subsequently liberated on bail, was delivered over by his bondsmen into the hands of the Sheriff last Monday, and is now in the County Jail awaiting the action of the Grand Jury. It teems that the culprit was enamored with a girl in the neighborhood, and tho twain were anxious to test the joys o f that ticklish thing, wedlock ; but the parents o f the girl objected. The swain being short o f funds for an aggres sive movement, unwisely resolved to negotiate a “ French loan” at his employer’s expense and then run off with the girl and marry her. But “ there's many a slip ’twixt cup and lip,” and instead of now enjoying the bliss of bis honey moon ho is confined in “ durance v ile ;” and it wjll probably be long ere he regains his liberty. ■We understand his sweetheart vows she will follow him, even if he goes to tho Penitentiary. Such devotion is commendable when bestowed on a worthy object, but we think she might have manifested it to better advantage before her lover became entangled in the meshes of the law. “ The course o f truo love,” etc. O pexikg of the S e a so s . — The season o f fes Charades.

D a l l a s , Thursday. 3fr. Editor.-— Thinking, perhaps, you might like to hear once more from your friend “ Smarty.” I thought I would just drop a lino to let you know that I am neither exhausted, angry or sick, nor yet gono in search of “ Anto* nius” ; but instead of all these have been to tho “ Fair.” The getting ready for that event, and being there so long, the time has passed, and “ Smarty” is quite forgotten.[!] Not liking this quietly sinking out of sight, I thought I would come again; and while I am here, will ask a few questions. As we have the credit of being rather inquisitive, it will be no more than right th&i I should take the liberty. I might as well begin by asking, how you liked the Fair ? Did you see Tom Thumb and party ? Did you go to the circus? and did you see the Professor at the corner making candy? —oud all o f the other wonderful sights too nu merous to mention ? I enjoyed them all—only sorry the time was «o short and the weather so foggy—never forgetting, however, to be thank ful that it did not rain. Your readers will be treated[?] no doubt to full accounts of all you saw, so I will drop the Fair question. Will you please publish the poem read by yourself two weeks ago at the Lyceum .aud oblige. I am sorry to bear that innocent parties arc accused of this correspondence. Were there any honors won I would gladly share them with my friends; as it is, they and I must rest con tent, hoping for better things in the future. I am alraid I have taken up too much of your time already. Wishing you to excuse my poor attempts at letter-writing, I will close by wishing you farewell, for the present D. S. [Welcome, again, Smarty. We are really glad to know your pen is still a fountain, your presence among us, and that you are neither angry nor sick. Long may you continue in so happy a condition. But how about that “ getting ready ?” We thought it took a lady only five or six hours to prepare for a ball, and could it take Smarty two or three weeks to prepare for a rural fair. What a dreadtul co quette you must be that it should take so long a time to prepare your snares for innocent, un suspecting young men.. But if your desertion o f us for further conquests was of long dura tion, rest assured you wero not forgotten, but rather your presence was more ardently de sired. You ask us how we liked the Fair? Well, wo hardly know bow to answer—hardly comprehending the question. I f you would know bow we enjoyed ourself while at the Fair, wo rcluctautly answer, “ Not at all.” But if you would know our opinion o f tho displays and exercises o f the Fair, we readily answer, that in our opinion it was the greatest success of the kind Oregon has witnessed. W’ e have seen Tom Thumb and party— but not at the Fair. We saw them a few years ago in New York City. We did go to tho circus, however, and were hoartily tired o f it in less than half an hour, and would have left were we unac companied. We also saw the Professor mak ing candy, and selling it, too, with a vengeance, while a host of rustics stood around munching as if for dear life, gazing with wonderment meanwhile at the modus operandi o f its manu facture. These and the “ other wonderful sights too numerous to mention” came nndeg our ob servation, but did not attract it long. There were, however, other sights we wished to see very much, but did not see them; so that our interest in things visible was materially lessen ed by a lack of the “ substance of things hoped for" and the internal “ evidence o f things not seen.” However, our trip was not devoid of interest. We visited nearly everything that was worth seeing, and acquired much valuable information, besides meeting with a host o f old friends, professional and otherwise. So much for the Fair, in this connection. The poem you speak of will appear soon in print, and care will be taken that you get a good copy. Do not give yourself any uneasiness, Smarty, about what “ they say” o f you or your corres pondence. Your incog, is safe, and envy only prompts their curiosity. Hoping to hear irom you again soon, we remain, ete. tivity and amusement was inaugurated by the young people of Dallas, on Friday evening, by a social party at the parsonage o f the M. E. church, and another takes place this evening «tth e residence of Mr. Shultz. We were hon ored by an invitation to both, and enjoyed our self hugely at the parsonage last evening. The bouse was crowded to its utmost capacity with pur social citifju?, while a few comparatively strange faces added to the attractions o f the .occasion. Mirth and festivity reigned supreme until the waning hours warned the happy as semblage that the morrow bad its duties. Of the party this evening we shall be better able to speak hereafter. This is but the commence ment o f a series o f social parties projected, which will no doubt contribute largely to the tycial harmony of this community.
