A religious discussion between "Pap" Comley and a man namen O'Brien, of Grave creek, was decided in favor of the former one day last week, Comley coming out first best.

The deceased was formerly marshal of Oakland and a young man highly respected in tLe he had lived. community where W. H.

Thursday of last Thursday of last week about three o'clock in the afternoon, as the men who were at work io the north! end of the Cow creek tun- on tjie extension of the 0. & C. railroad south of floseburjr, were about to change work, a blast was prematurely exploded and two of the men, Daniel Silvy and Geo. Whitton, wire killed and six of the men se- aiouily injured. Caldwell and Dodson. the two men in- dieted for assault kvith intent to kill Charles Hanna, at o special session of the circuit court for Jackson county, held recently, were acquitted. The assault was one of the most cowardly and uncalled that has come under our observation for a long time. At the same term VvjV P.

He was always a sympathizer with the grangers and we wish him better success as a farmer than was obtained by the illustri ous Horace. I A. S. Jacobs, sheriff of Jackson county, spent a day in Rdseburg during this week. of cattle stealing, to the penitentiary. Mr. Jacobs formerly resided in this city and has many frieuds herd, who were glad to meet him. While the people of Oregon have been complaining of the few frosty mornings with which we have been favored during the last month, with tha mercury but little below freezing point, our leas favored bretheren on the eastern slope j of the Rocky mountains have been patiently enduring an atmosphere ranging from eighteen to thirty degrees bc- Iow zer0t antl yet a many of these 8tates and . j ..,.., territories they will tell us that they enjoy i , ., ww-i the finest chmatej under the sun. Whilst we Oregbnians rest in perfect security, de pending on the native grasses to furnish us fat beef during thf entire winter, our neigh bors east of the itockies are compelled to house and feed even their stock cattle in or der to winter them over, and yet Oregoni ans will complain if it happens to freeze ice a little thicker than window -glass. We should really be thankful for our climate. In the case of the State of Oregon vs . S. P. Chadwick and his official bondsmen, ar gued at the last O ctober term of the supreme court before Judges Vr atson and Waldo, an elaborate and exhaustive opinion has been filed-by the latter, the -former concurring. The pith of the decision is to the effect that he assumption of official duties is not a con- tract, but a harden imposed by the state up- V " ... ' .1 Li i - 3 a- ' 1. 1 on tne citizen, wmcn ne is imjuuu vj acenpt I in tt e interest of the community and eood government; that'no additional liability h created by the State, requiring a bond; that itia onjy aa additional remedy for securing faitnfni performance of the duties which th citizen WOVLu i,e bound to perform with out the official undertaking; that where an official acta in good faith and according to his best judgment! that he is not liable for a mistake in the law, or liable to the state for any losses it may have sustained , by said mistake, where the mistake was a mere error of judgment and not willful or corrupt. The findings of Judgej Deady, upon which the judgment of the circuit court was enteral, were insufficient to show that Secretary awick Vaher i'ted'-.ally. corrupt! or criminally negligent in auditing any ot the claiais upon k hich the judgment was entered against tym and his sureties. The judgment was seti aside and the cause re manded to the court below for a new trial. From the law of iho case, as laid down by the supreme court, the .causo is virtually at an end, for it has 'never been pretended that Governor Chadwick acted corruptly in any particular, or received any benefit from aud- iting the claims upon which the defalcations J are based, and owing to the uncertainty of th iaUgaas8 made usa of in the statute, I there is room for difference of opinion as to I heir construction.' Severe Storms in tixe Eastern States- Diiring last Saturday and Sunday the section of country embracing western Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana was flooded with the highest freshets that have ever been known to the people of thesg states. The damage caused by the flood is immeasurable. - Towns and whole sections of country have been completely submerged. Bridges, dwell ings and machine shops have been swept away. A Cleveland dispatch says: Machine shops, flour mills, pack ing houses, factories of all kinds and the railway freight house are more or less submerged. The water is receding to-night, but tbe extent of the damage cannot be ascertained for several days. It is estimated that 23,000,000 feet of lumber, 10,000,000 to 15,000,000 shingles are washed frouy the lum ber yards. The valley railroad is sev eral feet under water for miles and its bridge near Weighlook swept away. Fifty horses at the stables at the lum ber yards stood all night in water up to their breasts and were rescued with dif ficulty to-day, having swam several hundred feet to reach a place f safety. A Pittsburg telegram of February 4th says: The wild weather and heavy rains of the past week caused the Alle gheny river and tributaries to overflow its banks, washing away bridges, hous es and barns and doing damage to prop erty between Pittsburg and Oil City to the extent ot several hundred thousand dollars. The river commenced rising here this morning. No danger was ap prehended till afternoon, when sudden ly all the retail coal dealers' barges and about twenty . rafts of lumber were swept away in a few minutes. Loss," $100,000. Residents in the lower por tions of Allegheny City and south side are moving to safer .quarters at points rJbove. The damage is estimated at $250,000. A Mt. Vernon special to the Leader reports that the Kokomo river is bodtai ing. One house is surrounded by wa ter and a family in the upper story cut off from assistance. The bridge on the Baltimoie & Ohio railroad was carried away while a freight train was crossing. The locomotive and the foremost part of the train sank out of sight. AH train hands escaped except a brakeman named Hartman, who was drowned. Dispatches from Richmond, Shelby ville, Fort Wayne, Connorsville in east-, em Indiana, and from many points in Miami and Sciota valleys in Ohio, re port the most destructive floods for years. Dispatches ftom Bradford, Pa., says: Bradford was visited Saturday night by a disastrous flocd which inundated about 500 homes along Pearl, GJobe, Boilston, Ann, Florence, Pine, Main and other steets. The lower part of the city iibsubmerged, in some cases to a depth of ten foet. The flood was caused by the rains of Friday and Sat urday" melting the snow on the-mountains. Five bridges were swept away and 83veral houses along the bank of the creek were badly damaged or de stroyed.. Many families between here and Tarport, living in one story houses, had to flee for their lives when the ice gore broke, leaving all their effects, and many houses were swept away. It is impossible to estimate the loss. The waters are now subsiding and all fears of further trouble are over. Compound Oxygen in Catarrh. The following letter, which came unsolic ited, shows how promptly Compound Oxy-gen- acts in a very troublesome disease, which, if net arrested, too often assumes a distressing and loathsome character. Not only in the early stages of this disease, but after it has become deeply seated and offens ive, has it been found to yield to the action of this new and remarkable remedy: "Cady & Woolworth's Business College and Phonographic Institute, Union SquareNew York, Oct. 25, 1831. jDrs.

Schieffelin, formely of this county, who went!to Alaska with a small steam er and a complete. ; outfit of provisions and mining implements. Information has been received that Schieffelin and his party with the little steamer carry ing one-halt of the three years supply, ascended the Yukon 1,500 miles ard es tablished camp at the mouth of the Tannanna. The Wat was then sent back to St Michaejfor the " remainder of the supplies and' Sehieffelin went on a prospecting tour: Shortly after the boat left on the .return Voyage he made a.discovery in gravel' VPaf&frigai of suf ficient importance to jnstifjM,he detail oi a courier to make" the long and per ilous -journey; -overlaud te Sitka in order to convey, the news rapidly to his brother, a capillbesiding in Phila delphia. The courier reached Sitka safely, and dispatched the letter. It is reported that the 'washings in the gravel beds averaged $1 50 per pan, and that in some instances $10 a pan was pro duced. Jacksonville Times. Lono Pardoned. John C. Long. who several, months s ince was convict ed of the murder. of his wife in Salem and sentenced to the penitentiary for life, hat been pardoned by the govern or and released from confinement. The petition for his pardon was signed by the.; prosecuting attorney j who had charge of the case on behalf of the State, several of the j mors before whom it was tried, the coroner of Marion county and a large number of the mbst influential citizens. A careful and professional'examinalion of the? skull of the deceas3d has exploded the the ory that the ball entered on the left side of the head. It was made- very evident that the woman committed su icide, as from the position the body was lying she could not have been shot by any one in the room, Jobs in Washington. The wy all proposed reforms are met and. legislation in the interest of tbe people thwarted or defeated is shown by the following dispatch. The Sun's "Washington special says: The power ful rings now gathered at Washington exceed in number and wealth all that have appeared here for ; eight years. These rings expect te do their most effective ,work in the few remaining weeks of this congress. All the large and many of the lesser special interests involved in pending or in proposed changes of the tariff are represented by active and influential agents, outside and inside of congress. They have pooled their issues and will make com mon cause. The navy ring has won the first engagement in the house. It re mains to be seen if the senate will con firm Robeson's work. The great ri.ig of land-grabbers has succeeded, by the action of the judiciary committee of the house, 'not only in preventing any legis lation adverse to this immense interest, but also in keeping the subject from getting before the house at all. The whisky ring will soon make., its. last desperate effort. Tbe real truth in this does not appear upon the surface. The distillers and - manufacturers of whisky have Jittle concern about the bill passed by the senate extending the bonded time for two years, or any legis lation tht may be substituted for it Speculators artd banks are the parties most' anxious and most disturbed in mind about the action of congress. There are about 83,000,000 or 84,000, 000 gallons -of whisky stored. The banks have advanced between $50,000, 000 and $60,000,000 on warehousing certificates. About $20,000,000 of this paper is held in Louisville, Cincinnati, St Louis and Chicago, the remainder is scattered in the .great eastern cities. It is undoubtedly true that the banks are seriously embarassed by the accum ulation of these discounted certificates, and they can get no relief from the speculators who put them up as colla teral security. The banks, therefore, are practically the owners of the whisky, and their situation is move critical be cause they will be compelled for self protection, to pay the tax on this stock as it becomes due. The aggregate tax will be about 074,000,000 or 75,000, 000, distributed over two -years and ten months. - It is thus seen that the banks which have leaned much of their capital, tempted by high rates of interest, on whisky now in bond, are the actual sup plicantsfor legislation, though they do not so appear before congress. Some ot them are in a bad predicament and are unable to cany this heavy load. They are timid about taking active part, fearing that a disclosure pf then- weakness might precipitate a disaster. Frozen to Death. Last Monday Jiuis Pecor and Peter Petee started rom their place near Dillard's to at nd a party at Tyee 'mountain. They went by way of Looking Glass and tt tempted to cross the river at Sham- brook's ferry in a small boat,4which cap sized and they got wet They started through the fields, and before arriving at their destination darkness overtook them and they lost their way, and when crossing a slough the ice gave way and they both got wet a second time. Shortly after this they got separated, and Petee heard Pecor calling co him. He found his way back to the old man who was lying down, and tried to get him up, but could not. He stayed with him until morning, when he went to the house where they had started for assistance. W hen they got bacK tne old man ws able to talk and told them not to I move him and in a short time died. Petee has his feet badly frozen and is scarcely able to get get about. A correspondent of the Coos Bay News publicly charges a deputy surveyor of the public lands with crookedness of a character which, if true, needs investigating, and claims that Surveyor General Tol man's at tention has been repeatedly called to the misconduct of his subordinate. The corres pondent states that there are available lands or homestead and pre-emption settlement in Coos and Curry counties; that the deputy referred to has been twice sent ia to this lo cality to extend the surveys; that instead of doing the work it has been his habit to send an emmissary to settlers to induce them to pay him not to leave them out of the plat. If this be true it needs to be investigated and welpresume that Surveyor General Tol- man will not Jet a matter of so flagrant a violttion of law rest upon his department, after his attention has been called t it If any settler has either been importuned or compelled to pay any official for 4oujg cis duty the matter should be reported to the J .. ...
