to pay us in wood for their paper are request
ed to bring it right away— we want it. 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.

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.

Physicians prescriptions carefully and
neatly filled.
Owing to my purse being empty, and my

I hardly know what man to trust.
I ’ve trusted many, to my sorrow;
So pay to-day and trust to morrow !
