Seribner's for September con tains an unnsnal number of stories. The most striking of all is liret ITarte's amusing sketch of" Wan Iee, th.j Pa gan." Then there are stories, contin ued or complete, by Jules Verne, Miss Miss Trafton, James T. McKav, Con stance Fenimore Woolson, llarriet Prescott JSpolVord, and Miss Hopkins author of "Miss Marigold's Thanks giving." Mrs. Davis describes " The Fepier-Pot Woman." Mr. Burroughs writes charmingly about "Mellow England, " Mr. Crosby brightly about "(Jastric Literature, ""and M. JS. S. saws something about "umbrellas." Mr. King's " Great South" pajer deals with Alabama and Mississippi. Mr. Locher relates a striking Eastern incident, "A Malay Sailor ltunning a Muck," Mr. Kichards tells about the new Normal College in New York. The poetry, is by Benjamin F. Taylor (handsomely illustrated), Nora Perrv, Samuel V. CuiHeld and J. V. C. Dr. Hollands Topics are " Literary Style," "Tho Averatre Pi-aver-Mee't-ing," and "American Incivility." The Old Cabinet has to do with "Knigln Errantry," and "Story Making-" So cial custom, literature-, science, anec dotes ami fun are represented in the other regular departments. Sr. Nicholas fok Skptkmbeu. Opens very seasonably with "The Gen tle Angler," a pajer on Isaac Walton, and we soon come upon a story about hunting antelopes iutho West. Among othei seasonable things is a verv funny illustrated poem, called "The Cheated Mosquitoes." The seriul stories, "Fast Friends," by J. T. Trowbridge, and "What Might have been Expected," bv Frank li. Stockton, draw near their conclusions, and the interest of both stories naturally increases. "The Pony Ex press" is a well written article, hand somely illustrated, showing how mes sages and letters were carried In-fore railroads and steamboats monopolized the business. Sarah O. Jcwett contrib utes a capital story for girls, and there is a romantic talc. "Little lien and the Sunshine," by Kate I'.loede. Tlie de partments at the end of the number are crammed as usuai with wise bits of fun and funny bits of wisdom. Itailroad Matters. ' ' ten o'clock Kent will please full of The Santa I'asa 7v.v.-, in, an article relative to the action of the agents of the Gcjiu in bond holders recently, has the following to say in regard to our railroad prospects: The agent of the bondholders, Mr. Kohler, will remain in Oregon to take the receipts of the road in Land, and make proper use of them. They have cnt down the outrageous salary of Ben Holladay and have placed it at c'bUO per month, which sum is enough for a man of his ability. The com mittee appointed by the bondholders has been makTng a thorough investi gation of the country through which the road will have to be limit, to ex tend into California. This commit tee has come to the conclusion that the road can be built through into this State and be made pay a revenue .sufficiently large to induce them to build it. The people of Oregon have faith that the road will he built. which will greatly benefit the south ern part of that State and the north ern part of California. These Ger mans who have invested their money in Oregon, have the good will of the people, and should they continue to remain, they will m.ako a .success of it. But should they act as Ilolladay has done, they might as. well quit. Ilolladay haa nobody's confidence, simply because the only one he con siders or cares about is Ilolladay him self. It would be a pretty good idea for some of the' other railroads, or for the people at least, to have their bondholders make an investigation and seo what kind of a foundation they rest upon. LATEST TELEGRAPHIC NEWS. Bubllvoton, Sept. l.-The result of the election m this city shows that thp Republican State ticket has 9S majority, and the city gives a iarge plurality for the Republican ticket for State Senators, but fW T j Londley Democrat, as Representa- - .13iaire by J8 major ity This is the first time a Demo crat has been elected Representative irom xmrnugion- since 1853 The regular Republican ticket for county oflicers is probably elected in Chit- tenaen county, showing a heavy temperance bolt on a portion of the ticket.' Rutland, Vt., Sent. 1. elects a Democratic Representative by 43 majority. Brandon and Bur lington also elect Democratic Repre sentatives by small majorities. There is little doubt of Toland's re-election in iue oecona uistrict. Joyce (Rep.) is elected by a larere majority in the First District, and Hendee (Rep.) is re-elected by a 1 urea nid- jorityin the Third District.' J. C. Baker, regular Republican noninee for State Attorney forTutland coun ty is defeated. CniCAao, August 30. Taylor, of Wisconsin, addressed a meeting of Grangers at Monroe vesterday. Re ferring to the Potter law he said the Commissioners show that railroads doing the same amount of business as last year would net not less than 5 per cent, of-their gross earnings. He further stated, on the same au thority, that the St. Paul Company earned enough last year, above ex penses and interest on bonds, to pay 7 per cent, on common and p referred stock. In conclusion, he expressed the belief that when the people had established their power to regulate railroads, it would bo used with moderation and justice. Louisville, August, 31. A num ber of the men who went from Stan ford to aid in suppressing the troubles in Lancaster were indicted by the Garrard County Grand Jury last week, aud will appear to-morrow to answer. CoLrsiurs, Ga., August 31. The Lee County, Alabama, fight has been very much exaggerated. Xo person was killed, and only one church was burned. All is now quiet there. --- Truthfully Stated. An exchange truthfully says: The Democratic party has been, and is from tradition and principle always opposed to all unlawful combinations, and to all 1 t -r i ciass legislation: id never was a pro slavery or unmit-islaceiy party, but it held to the strictness of the law, br or araiist either. And as respects opposition to protective tariffs, to the creation of monopoly and privi lege and its favoring low taxes, and an economical administration of all public ofiices holding the incum bent thereof to a rigid accountability -it presents an unbroken line of exam ple, precedent and history, which its most bitter opponents can only ob ject to, that it changed its character when the objector deserted or went over to the present Republican party. The Cant of Impoter. It Is so obvious that physical and consti tutional vigor is the host defense against disease, that even the venders of drastic purgatives advertise them as tonics, stom achics and lnvlgorants. In the hop of en listing the confidence of the public in the devitalizing and pernicious potions. " It is amusing to note how thesjf inaposters Imi tate and copy the language In which the medicinal properties of Ilostetter's Stom ach Bitters are described. Although tho fleet of their rasping evacuants to destroy the tone of the digestive organs and the bowels, and to rob the system of its vital strength, they are unscrupulously recom mended to tne weaK ana jirosiraie victims of disease as stimulants! it is nme this humbug(not a very successful one it is true, thanks to the mature common sense or tne American people) was stigmauzeu as it deserves. t?uch mischlcvious raiseiioods houid be exposed pro bono puotxeo. Ilos tetter's (Stomach Hitters, - oe n uisunetly understood, is a stimulant, n nas a spirit uous basis, and that basis is the vehicle which diffuses its wonderful sanitary prin ciples throuKb every part or the system. The tonic, ulierative and regulating ingre dients of the Bitters would bj comparative ly inert if thev were not, so to speau, carried to the localities where they are required by he stimulHtintr atront. lne cant winch nrotests asrainst the us. of a pure alcoholic fluid, when employed as a means of giving full effvict to the medicinal extracts of tho highest utility, is the cant oi charlatanism. Every intelligent physician so characteriz es it, and the sick who are griped, convuls ed and debilitated by the nauseous and disgusting nostrums of the parties who put it lolth, soon lind to their sorrow that it is a delusion and a snare. Ilostetter's Bitters, the great sanitary stimulant of the age, is, in the truest sensa of the words, a whole some, vitalising, renovating preparation. Ix the Fai; Distant Futche. The great question suggested by Malthas as to tho overpopulation of the globe, leading to the starvation of the peo ple, is one which is in the far distant future. Tho agricultural capacity of the earth is but little developed. Here in the L'uited States, with 3,000.000, 000 square miles of generally fertile productive land, we havo a popula tion of but 40,000,000. What might exist here we see by the example of little Belgium. It has an area of half of the state of Ohio. In other words, if Ohio was as densely settled as Bel gium, it would have a population of 20,000,000 souls, or oue half the whole population of the United States. This little territory, which is one of the greatest of manufacturing States, raises all the food that she consumes. The people, although of course not enjoying in so large a degree the creature comforts enjoyed by citizens of Ohio, ar, nevertheless, well satis fied and contented with their' lot. The resources of this small kingdom are extraordinary. Her foreign com merce, with her 5,0(50,000 of people is one half as great ns that of the whole of the United States. On August ii3d, while Miclieal -ucurn'e was ti riving over a bridge on Mill creek, Umatilla couuty, with a load of wood, and had nearly reached the opposite bank iu safety, one of the stringers gave way, pre cipitating wagon ami team, together with Mr. McBride and his little son Edgar, a lad of about eleven years, t disbinec of eight feet into tlie creek Mr. McBride although severely hurt, as soon as he could extricate himself from the position in which he hai fallen, went immediately to therolie of his son, whom he found iu an in sensible state, and bleeding profuse ly. As soon as the nature of the case would admit, medical assistance was sent for, but ere any relief could be obtained the poor boy expired, hav ing never recovered his conciousness from tho moment of the catastrophe The following named young ladies of Salem will become members o the St. Helen's Hall next term Misses Ella Ford, Eliza Miller, Ada Breyman, Lilian Patton, ranuy Ode neal, Ella Boone.

Sam Price, hi his own proper per son, informs the Salem papers that the persons who think the cohLcor pus" taken from the river at Albany the other day was all that is morta of the said Sam P., are seriously mistaken.

I I Since Marshfield, Coos county, was located, litigations concerning titles has been in progress. It seems the purchase of Dickson's title, assignee of Warwick, was made on the 14th of August, by II. II. Luse, who went east for that purpose. Finding that the Donation Act of 1853 only appli ed to agricultural lands, a party of citizens of Marshfield, consisting of Nasburg, Hacker, Lobree, McFeeley, and others, sent Thomas Hurst to Roseburg on Saturday last, to enter up tho whole town site as coal land, at S10 per acre, under the mineral land Taws. - v .
