Distinocishkd VisiTon. We had the pleasure of a visit last Monday from Mr. A. McKinley. Mr. McKin lev was for many years one of the prin cipal merchants of this place, in fact of the State, and a pioieer of Oregon City. Jle now resides witn ins lanniy some four hundred miles north of Victoria, in British Columbia. He was much es teemed bv all our old settlers and his present visit is the first for twelve v;ars. He notes numerous changes in cur place, and misses many of the old uioneers who formerly resided here. aonie having gone to other places, while a numler have pased away. On Wednesday afternoon a banquet was uriven him at the Clitr House, at which several of the. old pioneers were pres rut. and a most pleasant time was had Short addresses were made, bringing back to memory many of theold scenes which surrounded the early history o this place, and after spending a couple of h-Mirs over a most splendid dinner the company dispersed highly gratified at having had the privilege of enjoying the pleasure of meeting one who is so highly respected by his former fellow citizen-. Important Cask. The time of the Circuit Court was occupied from Thurs day until its adjournment on last .Sat urday with the case of the W. R. C. A L. Co. vs. John Jordon. The ease was a vcrv iiiiMrtant one, and puts to rest tlie'pretcnsions some people have made to th ownership of the island omositu this place, and, in fact, deckles the validity of the entire property of the Lock Company. The case was ably managed by Senator Kelly, Messrs. Thompson, Durham it Hill for the Company, and Messrs It. Williams and W. ('. .Johnson for the defendant. This s iit ercw out of the fact that James M. Moorjdot-s not realize th-t the prop erty of K ilMTt Moore, his father, has hern sold toother parties, and he leased llii- islaivl to John tiordon; but the j-.iry concluded that the property had nnssfd beyond the jurisdiction of the Sloore family, and that the Lock Co. u-;s tlic real owner of the island. Had the case been decided against the Com pany, i! would have - impaired the title to the entire property, but this verdict puts an end to the q iestion.

I which met at In dianapolis, Indiana, on the 20th closed its session on the 2Gth. We are under obligations to the Repre sentatives for copies of proceedings. The Grand Lodge was most cordial ly received by the Governor of State and Mayor of Indianapolis, Senator Morton and ex-Vice President Col fax. The entire delegation from Or egon was present, and attended to the interests of this jurisdiction. A resolution was adopted placing Van couver Encampment No. 1, at Vic toria, under the jurisdiction of the Grand Encampment of Oregon from and after the 1st of January, 1876. As to the matter of changing the location of Mountain Lodge in Idaho, it was decided that the action of the Grand Lodge of Oregon was proper and needed no action from the G. L. IT. S. In regard to opening the question of jurisdiction of adjacent territory, the Judiciary committe re ported that further legislation on the subject was unnecessary, and the re port was adopted. This includes about all the legis lation relative to this jurisdiction. On Monday the 2Sth ult., the clergy of Seattle and vicinity com pleted their ministerial association by the adoption of a constitution and by-laws. They meet on Mon day of each week at 10 A.

The ladies of Port Madison irot tin a picnic and clam-bake at the sand- spit at that place on Saturday, the 28th ult., which was quite a success and wound up by. a dance in the evening. A Sunday school has been or. ized at the beattle coal mines and ar rangements made for religious ser vices. (Jiergyruen ot the various do- nominations take turns going out there from Seattle, weekly, for that purpose. The Seattle Coal company is crowd ed to its utmost capacity by the quan ty of coal demanded for shipment. Several vessels are waiting for an op portunity to load, and still they come. Upward of 300 tons per day are brought in from the mines. The Washington Territory Legis lature is in session. Mr. J. W. Borst of Snoqualmie has recently sent into Seattle, says the Tribune, some mineral specimens which he has gathered about thirty miles east of Seattle. There are pieces containing 70 per cent of mag netic iron, and others plainly and richly marked with silver and cop per. The deposits from which these specimens were taken are directly on the line of the proposed Seattle aud Walla Walla railroad, and one day will be of untold value. Fifty miles from town, on the same route is an iron mountain, the ore from which assays 90 per cent, pure iron. Ten vessels were due at Seattle from San Francisco last week. Rev. Geo. W. Sloan, of Pierce county, W. T., who became danger ously insane upon the death of his wife about a year ago, has lately died in Pennsylvania, whither he was taken early in the spring, from mental and physical prostration. During September the Seattle Coal Company sent to San Francisco 5,000 tons of coal, and the Kenton Company 300 tons, making 5,300 tons in all. The cutzens of Walla Walla held a meeting to consider the subject of dividing the county, last week and concluded that if a division be made the line should be as follows: Be ginning at Snake river at a point where the range line between oo and 39, east of the Willamette meridian. intersects said river; thence running south between said ranges to its in rerseciion witu tne xoucnet river; thence following up the Touchet river its south fork to the lino be tween Oregon and Washington Ter ritory. Rev. John Rhea, of Port Town send, has gone to Oakland, Califor nia, to attend sessions of the Presby terian by nod for this coast. With the fair, legislature, dis trict court, and the building oi a wharf to deep water, Olympia will be rather lively during the next two months. Some goods in a box car in transit from Wallula to Walla Walla, caught hre last week and considerable dam age was done before the flames were extinguished. At Tort Tow.nsend Saturday night, Sept. 25th, a son of Lieutenant Ross aged about five years, was drowned He was missing from homo durim the night, and in searching for him the next morning, his cold and life less body was discovered on the beach in close proximity to the wharf, from which he must have fal len into the water. It was a sad scene. Extraordinary Opportunity for the Relief of the Afflicted. The surgeons of the National Surgi cal Institute, located in Indianapolis Indiana, Pacific Branch, 319 Bush street San Francisco, have finally yielded to the many urgent apjcals to visit Oregon and Washington Territory. Three or more of the surgeons will be at the Cosmopolitan Hotel, Portland, Oregon on tho 1st, 2d, 3d, 4th, 5th and 6th, of November, 1S75. They will have with them a great amount oi surgical apparatus, antili anees, etc., and competent assistants and workmen to change, lit, and make such apparatus as may be required They will come especially prepared to treat all surgical cases; Paralysis, all kinds of Deformities of the Face, Spine and Li mix. Diseased Joints, Diseased J'-ves, Catarrh, JPrivate Diseases, Files Vistula, etc. On account ot the irrea expense attending such atrip, they will not make another; therefore, all who wish to avail themselves of the advan tages of the Institute, without the lorn journe3' to San Francisco or Indianapo- us. must no so ai tins lime. .o case will be undertaken without a fair hope of relief. It is needless to say that the lnsinmion is entirely responsible, and the largest and most popular of the kind in America, curing thousands an nually. Remeniberthe timeand place and come early.

Send to the Poxd's Extract Compast, 98 Maiden Lane. New York, for a book, free, giving Its history and uses ; and ask your druggists for It when you need a Pain Destroyer. The Great Anti-Periodic. The certainty and promptitude with which Hostetter's Stomach Bitters con quer the most obstinate cases of mala rial disease, and the complete protec tion which they afford the system against the miasmatic poison which im pregnates the air of low-lying,- marshy localities, stamp them as the foremost of American antiperiodics. Wherever on this continent fever and ague is a regular visitant in the bottom lands of the South, the new clearings and mining districts of the West, and in all localities in the Eastern and Middle States where malaria prevails, the Hit ters are recognized as the only true spe cific for the disease, and its most relia ble preventive. They are, moreover, a safe and agreeable as well as a certain remedy, and on this account are im measurably superior to the preparations of quinine, arsenic, bismuth, and other mineral poisons mistakenly adminis tered as curatives for maladies caused by miasma, and which if persisted in work irreparable injury to the consti tution. Unfortunately, fever and ague, and the other febrile complaints generated uy miasma, are not tneoniv evus wnicn result from it. A great variety of dis orders are superinduced by the irrita tion which it causes. Among these are neuralgia, rheumatism, gout, periodi cal headache, palpitation, painful atlecr nous oi mo spleen, and various ae rangements ot the stomach. When traceable to malaria, the above atrec tions are apt to assume, like the disease wnicn originatea mem. an intermittent VPC : that is to sav. tbev recur at retrn- lar intervals, llostetter's liitters, how ever, obviates them all. by banishing the miasmatic virus from the syfetem.

SGLLim At this season of the year, when so many of our people are suffering from colds, we call attention to Ajrer's Cher ry Pectoral, as a sure cure not only for coughs and colds, but all affections of the lungs and throat. Having used it in our family for many years, we can sneak Irom Wrsonal knowledge of its efficiency. There may be other reme dies that are good, but in all our exje- rienee tnis has proved to bo by far the best. Its qualities are uniform and wholly reliable. It is pleasant to take. and should be kept at command, by every fami'y, as a protection against a class of complaints which seem harm less in the beginning, but become atluct ing and dangerous if neglected.
