Mr. John Abbott, formerly of this city, but a resident of Canyon City for the past six years, called last Wednesday. He will'remain in this city about ten days visiting old friends. The wife of John Ooolo, the Indian who was found dead on the railroad near Can by some time ago, claims that he was murdered and then placed on the track to cover up the deed. The residents across the river from this city were very indignant when it was proposed, to remove the small pox patient over to the old ferry house and talked of receiving the party with shot guns. Dr. Davis has laid on our table a copv of the "Dailv Citizen." of Vicksburg, Miss., dated July 2. lsi;. It is printed on wall paper, and was the last issue before the surrender of the beseiged city to General Grant. The Jacksonville Times wants the city fathers of that place to pass an ordinance compelling young hoodlums, who make night hideous, to be at home at a reason able hour. That's just what we ought to have in this city. One J. S. L.cabo, who has been living with the Indians on the hill, was up before Justice Athey last Saturday, charged with whipping a klootchman.

B. Peterson it lirothers, Philadelphia l11- Small-Pox. Although this State has Itcen alllicted with small-pox for some months past, this city, until last week, has been free from the te T ilde disease. For some time past a little child of a German family, living in the rear of Cordon's fur niture shop, has been sick with what they thought was chicken pox. Last Friday lr. Norris was called upon to make an examination, and proiio'umvd it small pox. The city council immediately order ed the yellov Hag to he displayed and a watchman has been guarding ihe house to keep any ot the exposed persons from leaving the building. A Mr. Carr, of O.-.-wego, has been employed as nurse, and tho family have every attention possible under the circumstances. The city lathers have been untiring in their ell'oVts to se cure a building outside of the city for a pest house, but have failed to lind fa suit able one. R is supposed that the disease was contracted while this family were visiting another lamily living near Bridg Mrt, who had the small-pox. While wo do not anticipate tiiat the disease will spread, it would be well for all to avail themselves of every precaution against contracting it, by vaccinating, dieting, etc. Dr. Norris in. onus us that the child is get ting along nicely, and that the rust of the family have no symptoms as yet. Bad Boys. Our attention has bcon call ed a great many times of late to the crowds of young boys who gather on the strett corners, night after night, when they should be at home, plotting what mischief they shall get at next. And as a result of parents allowing their boys to be running loose around the streets at night our city has the reputation of having the worst boy a in the State. Every day some one complains of the "doings" of "those young we had almost said hood lums boys; they disturb church meet ings, rock the inoffensive Celestial, tear down signs, commit nuisances, and what not. One of the last feats performed by some one of them was to shoot a valuable horse, belonging to Mr. Babcock, with a lead"sIiooter," destroying one of his eyes. It is needless for us to give a moral lecture on this subject, for parents well jknow tho consequences of allowing the boys to run loose 111 this manner. Keep theni at home studying their school lessons or any thing useful. Baptist S. S. Convention. Pursuant to call the convention convened in the Baptist church last Tuesday evening. The opening addressof welcome wasdelivered by Mr. F. O. McCown. Tho programme was carried out as announced in our last issue.

Hoyt , of Salem, has the plans and sjecification3 for a new woolen mills, to be built by Mr. Griswold. They are to be built at a point in the State where the best inducements are offered pecuniary and otherwise. Can t this city offer as good inducements as any in tho State? Party. The residents of Pleasant Hill assembled at the residence of Mr. W. B. Partlow last Friday evening and indulged in the merry dance and social amuse ments. Those who were present say that a good time was enjoyed and speak in the highest terms of praise of the elegant sup per prepared by the hostess. Mount Pleasaiit. Since tho last there 'lias been several pleasant surprise parties in this neighlor bood, and we have heard -several inquir ing as to whom of our members have been inclined to noach of our ir.; 110-u ill I IiIj pleasant locality. Now, M r. Editor, don't ' wu .e:ieu on me, and t will keep vou l"'" " 1110 anairs ot tins place here alter. We have not yet got our road cross laid, or the lamp pnsts up to the citv lim its ; nevertheless, we have had several surprise parties, which were highly appre ciated by all who participated. The lirst surprised was Capt. J. T. Ap pcrson.then followed the parties at Messrs. Williams & Lawton's, Mr. Warner's, and then came the dancing party at Mr. Win. Partlow's, w herein Mr. and'Mrs. Partlow are entitled to the credit of being warm and hospitable host and hostess! and of making all present comfortable and hap py. The sumptuous supper set for the occasion quite bailies description, but all will acknowledge that in providing the good things of this life, Mr. P. will carry oil the palm. Among the young ladies present, it was quite dillieult to determine who was belle of the evening, but all present will admit that Mr. Newell was the attraction with several ot the young ladies.. Doubtless this can be accounted for by the Entkr I'RIse announcing a new house and fur niture not long ago. Judge N. W. Randall has been engaged and is now teaching a term of school at Mount Pleasant school house, and he will show the "young ideas" how to store their minds with useful infornrition. "A Few of Us." In Trouble. Hugh Burr, at one time a resident of this city, but late of Camas valley, Douglas county, was arrested at Koseburg last week for'passing counterfeit coin. He went around town payii g bills to merchants, with half bogus and half good coin. When arrested, Barr said that lie didn't know that it was spurious, but 130 bogus half dollars were iouud on his person. He had a preliminary examina tion before a justice of the peace and was discharged, lie was afterward re-arrested by the U.S. Marshal and taken to Portland for trial before the U. S. Commissioner. Camp Meeting Ground. A corres pondent of the Orcgonian from Canby says: At this place is situated the Stato "camp meeting" ground of the M. E. Church.

"I am willing to risk my reputation as a public man," wrote I'M ward Ilines to tho Liverpool Mercury, "if the worst case of small-pox cannot be cured in three days, simply by the use of cream tartar. One ounce of cream tartar dissolved in a pint of water, drank at in tervals, when cold, is a never-failing rem edy. It has cured thousands, never leaves a mark, never causes blindness, and avoids tedious lingering." Hops. Oregon ami Washington Terri tory hops are reported to bo inferior to the California hops on account of not be ing properly cured and packed and being spoiled in transit. Culti vat orsin this vicii'. ity will do well to pay a little more inten tion in preparing their hops for market. Oregon has the reputation of raising the best (.11 the cost, and we should be careful to retain this prestige. Suakspeare Given Away.

For the preservation or recovery of health and strength, the diet should be wholesome and nutrit ious. When it happenithat the ali mentary proc:'ss"s are disturbed by improper or half masticated food, the best remedy for evel results of abusing the digestive organs is Ilostetter's Stomach Bitters, most agreaable, prompt and gent le remedy for dyspeosia.and for the bilious and evacuativo irregularities which result from it. 'rho liver and bowls, in common with the stomach, experience its beneficent influences. The refuse of the sys tem is carried off through its natural outlet.a healthy tlnw and secretion ot tiie bile is pro moted, and a powerful impetus is given to assimilation in consequence of its use. It healthfully stimulates the bladder ariu kid neys when they are inactive, and by its totiic and regulating action fortilies the system against malaria. A Itfiiiai'ltable Cure.

I had pro fuse night sweats, and severe pain in my side. I continued in this state for months, and became so week that it was with grat dillieult y I could walk, when I was advised to try WisT.vit's Balsam ok Wild 'hurry, and to my great joy I soon found that thisremedy has arressfed the disease.

The following is an interesting case of a man employed in an Iron Foundrv, who. In pouring melted Iron into a flask that was damp and wet, caused an explosion.

In all diseases afTectiiig these organs, whetlu-r they secrete too much or too little water; or whether they be afflicted with stone or gravel, or with aches aud pains set tled in the loins over the regions of the kid neys, these Pills should be taken according to the printed directions, and the Ointment should be well rubb d into the small of the back at bed time.
