MofcALLA Minkt Again. A corres
pondent of the Oregonian, writing from
Wood burn says :
This place being the headquarters of
the Moialla mines, and as there are
i-arties going and coming from here
almost every day, I desire to keep your
readers postetl from tune to tune in
regard to this matter. I informed you
in my last letter that on the day lfore
i Dutchman had arrived here from that
rc'ioit with some unknown specimens.
Vfter as close an examination as could
Jkj made under the circumstances, by
nivelf and others, the conclusion was
arrived at that it was a pretty rich cop
per ledge, mixed withacertain propor
tion of native silver and also quick
silver. These specimens created great
excitement, and on the following morn
ing a coiniMiny of live, led by Mr. Sour
front, on a tl vinif pair of twisted shoes,
left for the new Washoe, well prepared
with notices to stake out their claims.
Mr. Henrv Hedges, who was one of the
mities, arrived hero last evening in a
thoroughly demoralized condition.
Under the excitement, his provisions
gave out lie fore he noticed it, and he
had to make Ins way home without
anything to eat but a piece of tobacco.
I complained of In-ing very still", and
his face showed all the marks of the
privations and .sufferings he claimed to
have endured, lie also brought some
KKcimens of the same nature that were
brought U'fore. They will soon be
taken to Portland to he assayed. There
will ixi a stock exchange established
here soon, but as the parties are all of
limited means, if the ass iv proves suc
cessful, a nr.mls'r of the leading mer
chants of Portland will be called upon
to invest in stock. When Mr. Jletlges
left our Dutchman was pit-king away,
llesavs that as soon as he gets S."5),0M
he will leave for Sliermaney," and
leave the rest for some other poor
tlcvils.

following communication from Kev.
Mr. Day, pastor of the M. II. Church in
this city, appeared in a recent issue of
the " Christian Advocate :'
" Allow me first, to acknowledge the
kindness received from all the mem
bers of the M. 1-2. Church of this city,
and from the citizens generally. Tliis
kindness liegiui with the year, and lias
leen continued up to the elose ; for
which I am truly thankful to all, and
csix'ci illy to Jl ii'u w ho is the giver of
nil. Q'fite a nunilur have leen added
to the Cliurcli on profession of faith,
an I we believe 'there has been some
improvement in t!ie sjaritual condition
i'tlie former m.iiuberslii,. The vigor
ous efforts of the oiliei il brethren liave
cftlminated in a financial success. The
KM-r and l'.istor have been paid in
fall, the indebtedness of the church has
Ixfeii re lueed more than one-half, and
asiiiii has been secured on each one of
t!ie iliseiplinary ca-ises. Oar thanks
are dm; to the'mwiv friends not con
neetetl with the Church, who have
:ti.!e! materially hi attaining to these
desirable results.
IS- - it known unto you therefore, and
tl all that dwell in the regions round
'Mint, that ty t he irrace of God, Oregon
City Ciiurch'st ill lives. Our fraternal
relations to some of the sister churches
of t-'ie city have been intimate, and to
us, pleax:int and profitable. We have
part icipatcil in union meetings, nearly
4'verv Sabbath evening in connection
llnlf, l'.istor, and the Congregational
Church, Dr. Atkinson, l'.istor. I Would
also mention the Young Men's Chris
tian Association as an im jrtant Chris

Ji'sth'H Coc::t. Judge Athey's
coint has been occupied during the
p:ist week with the case ot State vs.
Henry Nacliand. It seems that the
ilefcmlant hail laid a water pijxi from
the spring above Cason's meadow, to
his I'liunmi r fruit dryer, and failed to
cover the ditch across I lie country road
to the satisfaction of some of the resi
dents of the district. Complaint was
made to the Supervisor, who ordered
the defendant to remove the obstruc
tion, which he failed to do, and the Su
xrvisor brought suit lieforo Justice
Atliey. After eiiipanneling three
juries, and going to considerable, ex
pnse, the ease was decided against M r.
Naehaud. and he can now appreciate
the luxury of the law. The obstruction
could have been removed for a cost of
not more than &.-, but as il is, he had
to remove the obstruction and nav the

miles south-west of Oswego, was wav

Oswego to purchase some provisions,
etc., for his father, and was returning
a Hnt 10 o'clock in the evening. When
alMut three miles from Oswego, a man
pimped from Itehind a tree and knocked

grabbed him by the neck and choked

consciousness was restored, the high
waymen had disappeared, taking with
them the contents of his pockets and
the articles which hi; had purchased at
Oswego. They took his overcoat and
gloves otT, but left them in the road a
short distance from the scene.

Fire. Last Saturday night about 11
o'clock tho Plummer FruiU Dr3'er, at
Marshfield, was discovered to be on
tire by some young men of that place,
lue alarm was given and a large num
ber of persons assembled to lend their
aid in extinguishing the flames, but it
had too much headway, and their
etlorts proved fruitless. It seems that
a small tire had been left in the dryer
when the employes quit work at 6
o clock, and it is supposed the fire orig
inated from that. The loss is estimated
to Ije about $7.30.
Just So.--The Albany '"Democrat"
has the following, which we verily be
lieve will fill the bill for a goodly num
ber of our readers :
"We have observed that the greediest
man after a newspaper is the one who
is too mean to subscribe. lie is always
in waiting for the latest paper, and if is
not two minutes on the uv ncr's prem
ises till the non-subscribing fiend
pounces nbon it, and never lets up till
the last line is read, and then perhaps
will cast it aside with the remark that
he could make a better paper himself."
Look Out ! The police of Portland
are making it too varm for the thieves
and vagrants in that citV; and they are
inakingtheir appearance in all parts of
State, l'obberies have been perpetrated
at Astoria, McMinnvill and other
places, and several of these vagabonds
have been in our city during the past
week, so that it would be well for our
citizens to look out for their valuables.

A Harvest ot Health.
Those who use llostetter's Stomach
Hitters as a means of invigoration and
protection against disease, invariably
reap an ample harvest of health. Di
gestion, excretion and secretion are
rendered regular and vigorous by this
ruling tonic and alterative, anil the es
sentials of health being secured, that
blessing naturally follows. Nervous
diseases, intermittent and remittent
fevers, rheumatism, biliousness, ami
kidney or bladder troublesare speedily
relieved by the Hitters, which are as
potent in preventing these maladies as
in remedying them. And it may
almost 1m; said that their power of pre
venting diseases is as strong a recom
mendation in their favor as their power
of curing them, especially in localities
where febrile complaints of an inter
mittent typo prevail, and where the
ordinary, resources of the pharmaco
peia, such as quinine, arsenic, bis
muth, etc., afford no adequate safe
guard. The fiifters are also highly desirable
as si sub tit ute for the ordinary nervines
and sedatives. The hydra teof chloral
and the bromide of potassium are both
highly pernicious drugs, the first
clouding the brain and, it is said, weak
ening tho tonicity of the venous sys
tem ; ami thelatter rniningthedigestion
and infesting the blood. Hostetter's
Slitters achieves the remedial purMsc
of both these medicines, which is to
sooth the brain and nerves, without
causing any hurtful after effects, but
on the contrary, toning as well as
soothing the irritated sciisoriuui. The
nervous invalid who uses this superla
tive vegetable nervine, finds in it a
source of unspeakable relief, and of un
wonted vitality as well.
