But he rinallv and in a few appropriate sentences exr.ressod his thanks for the beautiful gift. The pitcher is a very large one, handsome ly vngraveu on one side "To our belov ed Pastor, Itev. J. W. Sellwood." It was the occasion of the tenth anniversary that brought forth this gift from the children, and we know that the little ones enjoyed the giving as much as the recipient did the receiving, and both will long remem ber the pleasant occasion. Quito a large number of the parents of the chil dren were present. Too Inquisitive:. Some persons are rather inquisitive, in fact too much so. This is suggested by a report which chargesj.he authorship of a communi cation in last issue, signed "Observer," to a clergyman in this city. For the information of those busy-oodies, we will state that no clergyman wrote said communication. Hilks. J. Thompson, llanna A Co., of New York,, whoso advertisement appeared in this paper a short tjmeago, are first class bilks and swindlers. So are l)rs. Price and Hurt, also of New York, whose advertisements are being published in a number of our State exchanges. ' In Skssion. Tho Siloam Baptist As sociation held the 21th annual meeting in this county last week, with Klder J. Stipp as moderator, and Klder T. J. Crooks as clerk.. Tho latter has held that oflieo since the organization of the association in 1S4'J. sively in the vicinity of Brooks' sta tion, three dwellings having been robbed within two miles and a half of that place, llie residence of Mr. William P. Massey had the door broken open and was robbed of two watches, 85 in coin, and a double barreled shotgun. One of the watches was afterwards found hang ing on a stake and rided fence about one hundred yards from the house. The thieves probably had conscien tious scruples about carrying off more than one timekeeper. The house of Iteuben Lee was robbed of a considerable quantity of children's clothing, and Mr. James Finney's house was robbed of a new suit of clothes and a pair of boots. Two farmers near Jefferson want to let the contract of pulling 100 acres of flax. Their names are Chas. Miller and Jesse Parish, and their flax will be ready to work next week. "We publish this for the benefit of anybody who is out of work and wants a job'. "' Counsel for John Parrott of Salem, who was convicted and sentenced for burning a building, appear to have abandoned the idea of appealing the case, and Parrott has been taken to the penitentiary.

Next we have a pro fusely illustrated sketch of "The City of Hi rini.in tint." bv Samuel Wil liams, one of the best known editors of San Francisco, who write apparently with discretion as well as enthusiasm. Not the least interesting part of Mr. Wil liams's paper is that in which he desr cribes John Chinaman but his article is lively and readable from beginning to end. In Topics of the -Time, Dr. Holland writes about "Old ana New, now consolidated with Scribrter; In ternational copyright," -'The Parochial Schools ;" and an "American School of Art."

Administrator's -Xoljce.S It is seldom that we notico anything in the medical line, nor would we now. unless we could be convinced that we are not doing our duty as a journalist in recommending to the public the cel ebrated botanical preparation of Dr. Henry. Whoever induces the victim of scrofula or an v other disease of tho blood, to use Dr. Henry's Kxtract of Sarsparilla, has. begun a good work. There is no question as to the result of this medicine if persevered in. It is a sure cure for scrofula, rheumatism, Salt Rheum, and indeed all complaints arising from vitiated or impure blood. It is just what a good physician would prescribe for these complaints, and we confidently recommend it as being the uest article now m use. ur. iienry s Cough Balsam is the most affective remedy for affection of the throat or lungs that we have ever known. It contains no deleterious drugs, and can be taken with impunity .and certainty of relief. For the cure'of coughs colds, sore throat, etc.. it stands without a ri val. -Dr. Henry s Liniment as an alle viator of pain", is unrivaled by any preparation before the publie; tho most skeptical will be convinced by a single trial. It will prove itself a friend in need which no family should be without. ., TVTOTICE In Town.

Clackamas county has sonic handsome farms in the vicinity of this place. A person can go a long distance before he will see finer looking places than those owned on the hill by Messrs. W.

Who is he that blows and blusters, Makes such faces, talks such nonsense He declared this Edward Payson It was "The most wicked city lie had found in all his travels From Jerusalem to Frisco, And would sink like old Gomorrah hich the Dead Sea now rolls over."

No true boy will fail to appreciate it. tusan Cool id ge and Sarah O. Jewett contri bute two capital stories for girls. The poems of the number are excellent; the illustrations are up to the usual standard of St. Nicholas, which leaves nothing to be desired ; and there are as many more attractions in the number as those we have mentioned. over Oregon. Prof. Condon Las been appointed professor of natural history, and Prof. Collier transferred to the chair of mathematics at tho university at rorest Grove. Governor Grover has appointed Mr. R. E.

The engineers who surveyed the route for the Corvallis and Yaqnina xay railroad, report it not only prac- ucaoie, dui a reaiiy gooa route. The Public Confidence Well Placed. Although the world has been seeking specifics for disease many centuries, few indeed have been found. Prominent among these few is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which years ago received the endorsement of the medical profession, and was hailed by pres. and public as the great renovant and preventive of the age. And with good reason, since to the weakened stomach it gives strength, to the torpid liver activity, to the disordered bowels regularity, and to the shaken nervous system firmness and tone. Under its benignant influ ence healthful vigor returns to the de bilitated and wasted frame, tho tlaccid muscles become compact, the wan 'as pect of ill health is replaced by a look of cheerfulness, tho mind ceases to des pond, and flesh is developed. upon the attenuated frame. There is no-eotag-' geration in this statement. It is as true as that the system is subject to disease. Were proofs required to substantiate the reality of thecomprehensiveeffects of the Hitters, there is prolablv not in existence a medicine in favor of which such a mass of concurrent testimony, from the most respectable sources, could be adduced. But the efficacy of the nation's alterative and invigorant has been a matter of universal knowl edge too long to need any such corrob oration. The fact that it has its largest sales in those portions of the North and South American Continents, Mexico, and the West Indies, in -which atmos pheric influences prejudicial to health exists, proves what confidence is felt in its remedial and protective virtues. In localities where fevers of an intermit tent tvpe prevail, especially, it has come to be regarded as an indispensa ble necessity. assets (County Wind): " Certificates of land sold for tain's- . and purchased by the coun ty (not available) 1.250 91 Coin in treasury as per report ot Treasurer . 3,G5ti 3G Currency in 1 reasury as per roport oi treasurer . 4.$ County order on Marlon county... 457 $ 6,1 J9 95 Indebtedness over sets and above' a- .$ 7,902 24 COUNTY SI.UOOl.
