The Orejou City. Seminar-,
Tho last term of t ho school ye-.it clones j
t!iis week for .the summer vacation.
The whole number enrolled during the
T.ist tonn is 203; average daily attc-n-Tuiee
1:4- IH-riu" the pat two weeks
the. teVie-iicrs have been busily engaged
in reviewing tl-.o studies ot the past
'-(.ir We recrret to say that many par
I nts iu tliLf city imagine that the last
two or three weeks of school is unim
nortant to their children, and conso
mientlv allow them to remain away
uit.v'ctiier, or to be very irregular. The
pupils that lose the review at the end
o ' f ((,(, year invarialily at the commence
ment of the next term lind themselves
fir behind those who attend regularly.
i This is discouraging anwc ui tencners
i ami TMiiis. The attendance of the en-
rolled number shculd at least liave been
I jso dailv. Inning the vacation we kujv
i ltoso s line repairs and ini)rovemenla
; will be mmle, which will make our
luii.iiing look more like the school
i hniises ot' other cities. The public
t bitililiug of -iogon City are as well
i fitted u; for the comlort of those who
u-ic thcin as tho places of the same
5 kind are in other cities of the State.

awav Iroin too seminary, no wouui
j carrv awav v. it !i him the idea that we
' o are a people who are fully up with tho
nsje; but let him onee put -foot inside
our school house, what a revulsion of
feeling; a species of disgust would
i come over him. Instead of living in
tho I0t h anniversary ot our glorious
Republic he would Ik inclined to think
that his was a case .similar to Kip Van
Winkle, only reversed, and that he
was in reality living in the first. If we
require good furniture in our churches,
etc., where we only sit three or four
hours a week, how much more do our
children require good, comfortable
C desks and seats, which they are obliged
to use ten times that number of hours.
It is hi'rh time that some attention were
paid to this. It would be well for our
citizens to visit the school, say at least
once in a life-time, and they would bo
astonished to see what kind of a lrtiild
iug their children have had to occupy
live days out of seven. The school will
le reopened on Monday, the Sth day
of August.

extended up Front street to the St,

two or three inches in depth. The

just in from the Molalla gives us tho
following: About two weeks ago, a
young man named Calahan, accom
panied by a younger brother, went out
for a deer hunt. It was agreed that the
younger brother should take tho tlogs
and drive up the deer, while the other
would go to a certain stand. When
the one who had the degs in charge
arrived at the stand, there was no si 'n
of his brother. Ho hunted around for
an hour or two, tiring otf his gun at
mcrrvals, but tho eider brother tailed
to put in an apiearancc. He returned
home and intormed his father of the
terrible loss, who scoured the woods
far and wide the next day, ami faileel
to find a single trace of his missing son.
When the gentleman left, a ivi'rtv of
about sixty were in search of the lost
boy, and we hope that before our next
issue we stum te ablo to chronicle his
safe return to the grief stricken parents.

The facts referred to in the above

which it long sinco obtained as a reme

rheumatism and elebility, and demon
strating te the satisfaction of tho public
its superiority to the palliatives which
llooel the market, anil whoso make-believe
cures are trumpeted in manufac
turcel testimonials.
It is a subject of honest pride to the
proprietors of Hostetter's Ritters, that
no claims have ever been aelvanced in
its behalf that could not bo corrobor

eelly had such been tho case they coulel
have expecteel nothing better than that

ments of tho same stripe as those in

local bitters and inalcoholic rubbish,
woulel speedily die of inanition.
Such has been the fate of thousands of
bepulTeel shams, rather less efficacious
than bilge water.
The success ef the Ritters is attribut
able to their genuine excellence. The
public has observed that what they are
aelvertised to elo, they do, anel that no
increeliblo pretensions are maele em
this account. They have gainetl, anel
