On motion "the reward for coyote was placed at 20;' bear and pantherj $5 " each; wildetttj $2 50 each. The range extends from Roberts hill to the o!d Yokum bridge on tho Umpqua, and from Dodson butte to what is known as "Big Bally," near William Ledgerwood's place. The association meets tho first Saturday in every month. H. Dyer was elected secretary and treasurer. It was decided to tax the sheep at one cent per head, to make the fund. Those at the meeting repre sented about 9000 head of sheep, with several to hear from. Those that were not there are invited to attend at the next meeting, ns it will be to their in terest to aid in anything that will rend to exterminate the varmints from the shep ranges. At the rate the coyotes are coming into the ranges it will be but a very few years mere until sheep- raising in this part of the county will be a thing of the past. It was decided that any one bringing a scalp should qualify before an officer that tho ani mal was killed within the limits of the boundary set forth.

Hughes and his son M. B. were crossing the river on the ferry boat' The river being considerably swollen the boat became unmanageable and floated rapidly down the stream. Young H .took refuge on a large rock which was projecting above s the water in the mid-stream, and was rescued seme time afterwards by Mr. Riley Att terbury Jin a skiff. The team was thrown off the boat as it passed over a large wave, and being being fastened together by the checks, consequently cm of them, a fine young animal, was drowned! The remaining one swam to th shor dragging the heavy burden with himj, and was cut .loose from the dead animal by a half-breed The old gentleman managed to get the boat near the 'shore and leaped i upon dry land, but could not hold the ferry, al though he mide ono turn round a sap pling with the rope. Tie boat however lodged on! a reef of rock a short distance below the residence of Mr. Johnny Tomilsoni and remains firmly to this day. ; Messrs. W. J. Hughes and Russcl i Poe were out hunting a few days since and fired! rapidly at a large cougar as it bounded through the thicket,:but on ex tini ning the ground over which the an imal rani could find no blood-stains.

ShenJan was elected clerk, but declined the honor and his place was .subsequently sup plied by the appointment of E. G. Hursh. The voters saw . fit to levy a tax for general purposes of three mills. Upon that matter there is some feel ing and it behooves the school board to see to it that the fund thereby obtained will be properly utilized. The comfort and convenience of teachers and pupils should first be considered. Good seats, a good well, good deportment and ceneral good wishes are most degi rable. , . 1'SOM OAELAIID. Quietude prevails. Business is still improving. Some excitement ' in domestic circles. Dr. Jones of Albany has been visit ing relatives in this place during th9 week. The spring term of the Oakland acad emy will commenc Much 18 with a good attendance. " The old town school, under the man agement of Miss iParrott, wilTgive an exhibition on Fiiday, the 14th day of March.

McKinney and wife of Hills borough are now in our midst, they hav ing been called to the bed-side of their sick daughter, Mrs. Jno. Hanna. A number of oar citizems are doing Roseburg this week attending the Teacher's Institute. We hope thev may be well cared for and return 3d to us in good shape. Ihe health of our community is good and in fact better than it has been for a long period of time. A few are com plaining of coids but with that excep tion everybody is enjoying life to its full extent. Uncle John Mires met with a severe accident last week, by being precipitated from an elevation. Mr. M tell 15 feet and struck on his head, which re sulted in concussion of tho brain and some external in juries. Dr. Sham- brook was called and administered the proper remedies and at' this wiiting the iupired man is on the road to recovery The long lost letter has not been called in yet by its owner, and is now wandering around in the world like an orphan without friends. However the lettei tells startling stories, revealing tho way h ardness and crookedness of two of our j romi.ient (1) citizens. One of the parties implicated has received many scathi.ig notices through the press, of couduc. low and degrading. Sheep Husbandry Does it Pay? Our answer to a correspondent is: First. Sheep pasture all the year round. Second. Herders wages 30 to 35 per month and board. Third. Cost' per 1000 head, will de dend on (if land is owner) the interest on investment; or if leased, the rental. If pastured on the vacant government lands found in the froutier countie?, then the only items of expense would be the herdeis' wages, and possibiy, a hay crop cut on the plaius. Fourth. Land improved, $8 to $40 per acre; unimproved, 3 to $8 per acre; sheep ranges, 3 to $5 per acre. Fifth. The sheep of the Umpqua country are usually well graded. The predominating grades are Spanish mer ino and Cots wold. The mixed grades will average C pounds per head, the common unimproved sheep 3 to 4 pounds, and the pure bred merino from 10 to 16 pounds many bucks having floeces as heavy as 25 pounds. ; iSLxth. Price of wool varies some years as low as 22 cents for spring clip; at other times up to 35, and some years ago as high as 45 cents. Owing to the uniformly equal tem perature of the climate, the clean grassy hills and pure waters, and also the care taken in the improvement of flocks, the Umpqua wools rank first in quotations of Pacific coast wools. Mrs. Mary Brown, widow of John Brown, of famous memory, died at San Francisco, on the 2d inst. Mrs. Brown wenw from her home in Santa Clara county and took lodgings with her daughter in San Francisco. She secuicd treatment, and her health for a time was thought to be improving, bnt a few days since she began to fail rap idly, and her life terminated as stated. Mrs. jBrown resided with other mem bers of her family, on ft small farm near Saratoga. Too Honest. A prominent mercan tile establishment of this city had in employment a very peculiar person, to whom in all confidence, they imparted the secret of the trade mark. In an evil hour this individual was sorely tempted and he yielded. During the solemn hours of the night he rummaged and ransacked the store taking down and examining and leaving in great confusion goods of much value. Fi nally his eyes rested upon a pair of brogans, value fifty cents, which he in continently appropriated and took off on his feet Suspicion rested upon him, he was pursued by the vigilant vengeance of the Jaw; he was caught, brought back and arraigned for trial Whereupon he was asked why he was content to. steal only the shoes, and with a deep, sad sigh he replied that he examined the mark on the goods and concluded that it would be quite un conscionable to offer the goods at the price marked, and besides, he could not hope to find a purchaser. He was itn- mediately discharged with sx present of $25 and a cliromo. Moral honesty is it3 own reward. Extertai.vjiext. The officers anel members of the teacher's institute now in session at this place, have made arrangements to give a literary and musical entertainment at the court house. to-night, (March 6) at which time cur citizens may excct a rare treat, as the best talent of this part of the Stato will assist The object is a most vorthy and deserving one.

Dear Sir: I would here state to you that a year ago I suffered untold agonies on ac count of piles (bund) and went to Portland to get re lief from doctors there. I met Mr. Apple of Kose burg, who advised me before seeing the doctors Ut try your Eldorado Mineral Water.' I did so and had one dozen bottles sent to me by A. E. Champagne. I used one-half dozen bottles, taking right before ev ery meal, one small glass full. I not only was re lieved, nut i am certainly cured by what I used, and thankful for it, because 1 sutfeted more than I can exuress. I would advise anv one suffering from ihia disease to try your Mineral Water. Should you have any occasion to use this statement do so. You are at liberty on my account, f think this is the least I can do for you, as I was cured by it. Re spectfully yours, , JULIAN JOSEPH. KOSEBURO, Pec. 8, 13S3. GEO. W. JONES: Dear Sir.

The contrary was my experience from the use of your mineral water. Ta ken according to directions it produced immediate relief and iu a short time, if rontinued, would secure jennanentcure. To auy who will avoid irritating st imulants, I am satisfied it will prove of valuable comfort and benefit. As a general regulator I found it most excellent. L.F.LANE. DALLAS, Dec 2, 1833.
