On Tuesday Dubourgne seemed to le seizedwith the same sort of violent 'mania which takes hold of the Malay, when he. "runs amuck." Aboutfour o'clock he suddenly appeared m Four teenth street, near Broadway, from no one knows whera The street was at usual crowded, with ladies visiting the . etores ; armed with his compasses he darted through tha-Btreet like a mad man.' His hair was disheveled and his eyes were blood-shot like those of a wild animal ;!a lady. whom he was approach ing, started back in terror ; guided by a blind sort of impulse, he plunged the compasses into her right breast. Then fired" by a shriek of pain ho attacked the next lady he met, and thus in a few minutes he had stabbed no less than six ladies, before a courageous gentleman could overcome him, arid pin him to the ground, pending the arrival of a police man. The scene was a terrible one, and the description of it would have been worthy of the morbid imagination of J Edgar Poo One of the ladies will prob ably die, while the others are lessJseri ously injured. Dubourgne is now await ing trial, but there is not the slightest doubt that he will be sent to the insane asylum.

Jndgo Moore performed the ceremony with bo- l'mg grace and dignity' Mr, k4Vjn Overman and Miss Nettiu Prry were groomsman and bridesmaid.

It was almost ex clusively a family wedding, a few neigh bors only being present, j Besides the family the witnesses were A. H. Blakes- lev, Mr. and Mrs. John Frantz and ehil dren and Major Adams and wife. Esq. Perry sat up in front of the warm fire in his easy chair like some old patriarch blessing his children. He is still feeble, but on the gain. He has wonderfully improved since hi arrival at home. The room was beautiful with woman's taste and art. The shrubbery and leaves out side were goldening away into beautiful decay like a well-spent life melting into the bliss of a better world. We hastily mounted our horses, and; rode from the sunshine of a pleasant home into the rain of an Oregon November. pun ricrrtiEs. Iaj. Frank E.

One of the candidates for joint repre sentative in Ghehalis, Pacific, Wahkia kum and Cowlitz counties 'is Edward Campbell, of Uorjyiain. one of the most enterprising and thrifty farmers of Gray's Harbor. Mr. Campbell is a printer by profession, and it is m-edless to .sav that he is a good republican and well quali fied. There is iio doubt of his election. Heavenward. Clara May Watts, aged 10 years ! months and mne "days, died of menengi ; tis on Friday lift't at 1 o'clock i"n the morning. She was 'the daughter of T. C. and M. J. Watts, and endear etl her self to all who knew her by her aihiablo and kind disposition. She suffered from spinal difficulties caused by a fall wlreh: quite young, and her parents tried by all means to remedy her misfortune, sparing no expense in her behalf, But all their efforts were in vain, Death claimed at last their bclovetl auglitar, and neither tears, the tendereit are, nor unremitting attentions coald prolong her life. Her last day of school, she laid her books carefully away and brought her speller home so that she might gain more head marks, but God has called her to a higher school in which with Christ for her Teacher she will grow in intelligence, where that little form as still in her coffin as sculptercd statuary will be instinct with life and beauty, and never suffer pain any lnore. "Lift me once more, I am almo.it ready to go,'' said the dying child to her moth er as tender of her as when a babe in her arms. Now she lies in the arms of the kind Shepherd, bringing her into pastures green and beside still waters. She was to wear her new dress, dove colored ca-shmcrc trimmed with red moire and Spanish lace to Portland on Saturday; instead he wore it in her coffin, and was laid away in her little grave on Germany HiP. The funeral exercise!? were conducted at the Cour- 1 Ho The Episcopal burial service was read by G, W. McBride, and then followed appropriate singing. The hea vens rained torrents verifying the adage " Blessed is the dead the rain rains on." Not a gn crowd went co the cemetery "but they wero all sincere mourners. We noticed these her former playmates who saw tue last ciou tan vm vnv. .vi one they M-ill remember as long as mem- ory lasts, Alice Cox, Lena & Kendal i Blakesley, Blanche and Ibrney Adams besides her brothers, Eddie ad Frank. Clara endeared herself to aor uncles and Runts and all her relatives as their copi ous tears showed.

A Mileg,-agcd 14 months. Like transient features in a glass This little lale from life did pais, Hut in tho hearts with grief no ren She left enduring monument, A sweetness that shall time survive And in Eternity shall thrive. Iler soul in loveliness shall grow Longer than waves shall ebb or flow. Her grandsire's heart is torn with grief, To think his darling's life so brief, He'd hoped when Death should end hi day Her woman hands should smooth the way, Instead to neaven eho's gone before, To oie to friend the pearly door, To them all tired and travel-worn, SheH rise in beauty like the morn, Ami Heaven will seem, O dearer far, Since there has risen thi morning star. -1 km. Items from the The Telegram. John Roycroft was drowned in the Columbia Thursday, last week, "while crossing the river in a boat. He had started from a point on tho Oregon side about three miles lelow Rainier, and had nearly reached the Washington side, just below the mouth of the Cowlitz riv er, when he appeared to have run into a floating tree, his boat immediately up setting and throwing tho unfortunate maninto the water, whv', after a few , Ineffective rnVltggios, he- sank. Ho was a married man, aged 1 9 yoars, and liv ing near Kalania.. Mr Tho's. Hodgkins, of Columbia Co. left on the steamer last night on a visit to friends and relatives in Eath, Maine. His wife has been there about a month, and he has been rather lonesome since her departure, and concluded that he would go after her. He expects to be gone about two months. An old friend has found out that he and his belongings his wife values at $10,000, and is quito stuck up about it; we ha ye seen some that would sell out their old man cheaper than that, to wit, for tho first good looking stranger that came along provided his tongue was well oiled. S. F. Howe, Dextist, will be at , St. Helen the First Monday in each luonth, and remain 71ioo Days, unless by special agreement to remain longer. Correspondence. CenTkuvillk, Oct. 28th. 1882. E. G. AuAs-The Golden Enterprise Ttrimel will Ik; pushed with double dis tittrtd energy this winter, as the last "work ddrle snaking south has discovered the long looked for white sand under the capping 'clay. Long the miners have lookeel for a streak of white sand on bed rock in" order to follow it to the lead. Pbis"has been found now 16 feet below the Tunnel. The direction this sand leads will now by all means be followed. It lies on the line of the outlet and con tains fine particles of tho precious metal, gold. This streak of fine quartz sand will be followed as fast as the company's means will permit. This is the strong est clue the miners have since cutting through the rim-rock. A crust of ce ment lying over the upper wash contains fine light gold. These men no doubt will find this rich lead , before they test the south and west sides of this hill. Yorn, Informant.
