We find the following notice of our city in the Mining and Immigration Journal: Oregon Citv is the oldest town in Oregon b -ing first claimed in lxii) bv Dr. John' Mc Laughlin ; it is situated at the Willa ette falls. which constitutes the great water power of the State and is distant alxuit twelve miles fiom Portland, w ith which it is connected by steam and iail. This place h is decided and acknowledged nat ural advantages and is certain to be the great manufacturing tovin of the State at n id 8 ant period. It;l .alv cnta.n-one oi me largest u not Hie largest woolen null in Oregon, which building is of brick and is four stories in height.

The town has quite a history, and was at one time con sidered the t. wn of the State, hut it lost its kiii' wiiiicmiw nun w as o ei snauoweil by P rtland. With energy on the part of its citizens, however, its future will oe one any town might be proud of. .lintas, writing for the San Francisco G ldeii Kra, iays Oregon ciy the follow ing comp.iment: "Twelve " miles aUive Portland are the Falls of the Willamet e, ami as the steamer rounds a bend in the river a nhort distance below, you have a splended view of tie rushing, roaring waters. On the left stands the old town of Oregon City, wit l its busy hum of rim ing wheels, its manufactories and stores and churches, its beautiful dwelling houses, with their tastefully arranged gardens and graceful groves of trees; on the right are the Lo.-ks, while beyond the sleep buttes of Clackamas county i ise ali ruptly from the water's edge to a distance of perhaps three h indred feet. Passing through the Locks, the steamer plows its way up the river which gradually lessens in depth till the keel of the boat is some times in danger of striking tho bottom." Heal Instate Transfers.

Iorn, rea ed and the springtime of his lite and early manhood .si-nt in votir midst. Most of you knew him as a child, a youth and a man. You are familiar with tlie side of his life that was turned to the world, and have seen in it much to com-I mend and little to censure. You have recognized in him a warm-hearted, gener- ous, wiioiesouieu friend of mankind. One whose kindly symp thies weie always 1 extended where svmpathv was needed,! whose purse might lie light, but never so j light that he would not share it with a til- j low man in want. A ge ial social com panion, who found his pleasure in minis tering to the enjoy ment and happint s.s of those alxiut him. A fiiend whose constan cy never wavered and whose fidelity was not measured by prosperity, but became more tenacious'as affliction or adversity made it more precious. We know that these graces aim virtues were not assumed lor t licet, but had their seat in a noble, manly heart, actuated by th high princi ple oi supreme love to (ni and universal g od will to man. In this sudden dispen sation we have lost a fi iend, and moui n him as one suddenly snatched from our embrace by the grim monster "who loves a shining mark. ' A friend whose noble attributes won our love as th y merited our esteem. Death is not always a calam ity to the subject of it. "It is appointed unto all men to die." Wh n the aged and weary are called to r-st there may be grief among bereaved friends, but it is' softened by the it flection that they were full of years, that they had completed the ca.ei r allotted to them, and 1 i K - a sheaf of wheat full rie, were gathered into the g.'u tiers, having gone through all the stages of "life's fitful fevers, thev sleep well," and it is only seltishm ss that would cull tin in back to a woi Id whose pleasures cannot charm them an whose c res t'lev are un able to bear. When disease nridermiin s the constitution and carries from am -ng us those who have scarcely passed the meridian of life, though they linger long, and arc warned of the gradual hut certain approach of the "king of tei i ors" by the waning strengthen!' the victim, still when the ci i-sis is. mi's it til ings a shock, because though admonished we still hope even against hope. Yet e are somewhat pre pared for this, it was leilly more a wih than hope that kej t us u :, and that w ish founded on a bare possibility wit!, all the pro lanilities preparing us iora disappoint ment. I'.ut when the Angel of Death swoops (low n and suddenly tears from our embrace the young in the full vigor of manhood, with all his hopes and am tilt ions clustering around him, all his plans ful fill tire usefulness wi ll matmcd I tit only in tlie Ini ' of accomplishment, himsclt at once tho pi Lie as well as the hope and confidence 'f an aged father andsorrnti ing si iter, oh I the shock is terrii.le.

Dear mourning fiieiids, how can you be comforted ? Your loss must seem over whelmingly irteparai le. Wc cannot com mend you to human aid, because the hurl is ! eyond its reach. We all are mortal, and it liecomes us to be dumb in the pres ence of death. The noble spirit whi h animated H at clay has gor.e lo him w ho gave it, and will lie waiting for you. Let your thoughts dwell upon the narrow house, the casket, the sombre drapery and tho corpse within. And "Oh ! think of the home over there. I!y the side of t he river of light ; Where the saints, all immortal and f;iir. Are roticd iu their garments of white. "Oh ! think of the friends over there, Who before yon the journey have trod ; Of tiie songs that th" breath on the air, In their home in the presence of God. "You will soon be at homo over there, Then lightly your journey pn sue; Many dear to your hearts over there. Are watching and waiting for y u." And among the foremost to nii-et you will lie your eloved son and brother. It is Only a little while longer till vou follow I mm. lourgnet is icci, imt you are not fnm. l j coin loi t less.

The Fire Company, of which he was an honored uieiiilier, turned out as a body. The un era I services were held in'th Captist church, which ivas tilled to overflowing, the Pev. Mr. Sell wood ofHcialing. From his sermon on the occasion we take the following extract: "Mr. N. E. Randall was iHirn in this county, not manv miles distant from tiiis city, Oetoln-r lift h, 1S5.5, and was thus at the time of his dath aged 1SJ veins, 8 months, and 9 dn vs. He was a dutiful son, a kind and affc tion-itc hus band, and an excellent citizen. F r some time p st he has filled a respoiiiole posi tion in the ounty. that of di puty sheriff, and it was in th- faithful discharge of its duties that he contracted the cold which terminated in his death. lli? whole life was upent in this community. Manv I? fore we. I doubt not, have walked side by side with him from his childhood up. Thev knew him well, and knew him nnlv to esteem and love him for his man v not 1 and sterling qualities. Rut now he is taken and they are left. He, around whom the tendrils of affection and love of parents, and of brothers and sisiers had learned more and more fondly to cling ; he, who was the pride and vlory of Ids wife; he, iiiMin whose opening c ireer of usefulness the people bad learned to look with feel ings of pleasure, is now no more. "The silver cord has been l-nised, the golden IkiwI I roken." Ml'sic We have ju-t received from Messrs. Sherman it Hyde the charming sehottisehe entitled" When My Ship Comes In," which is i-ertainly one of the liest scl'iottisches put lished.'

Resolved, That while appreciating the patriotic motives of the ladies of the Guild of St. Paul's Church. The condi tion of the city treasuiy is not such, in our opinion.as to justify the appropi iation of public funds for the purpose of a cele bration but as citizens of Oregon City we will cheat-fully unite our individual ef forts with other citizens in celebrating the coming Fourth.

The game was wi 11 contested throughout and resulted in fa ver of tlie- Harvesters by one inn. Ibiring the tirst half of the game the Harvesters led their oppoiiets by a good majority, but the Clackamas boystvariiied during the (last of tne game and came under t he stling nt their vers heels. The score stood 4 to 23. Mr W. C. .lohnson acted as urn nii'C, and illartl Litourette and Leonard Charnian as scorers. A large number of spectators from Mt.

We have often heard the old saying "a.s drunk i.s a pir," but as i we never saw many pigs drunk and that long ago, the reminiscence of them had al most vanished from our minds. Rut late ly we have U'en honiued with the sigi,t, lot of a drunken pig, but of a far belter and dearer friend lo man thati that, adog. The canine in question is our good look ing, good natured, whole smiled friend "Mike." Mike thought, we suppose, that as he was always with the boys that lie ought to do as they did, and having found an opMirtuuitv to help himself to some good lager, he pulled himself together and went in. Whether he guaged the quantity he took ny tiie drink or the lap we don't know, or' w helher he just tilled up and idt satisfied is a subject on which we have not interviewed him. Anyway, Mike was not drunk in the head but only in the legs, and was of the kind that Mar- ryott speaks ot w ho get drunk and know it. Mike knew it ami moved oft to a seciuu spot where he could sleen off the 'effects of too much of a good thing. When he arose it was like a giant re fresh eil with new vin. Whether it was from the ef fect of the beer or the consolation in the thought that he could do as the "lords of creation" we can't tell. Mike has tried it once or twice since and w e are very much afraid that unless some of tlie charitable disposed or the Good Templars take him in hand and talk to him, that he will be come a confirmed drunkard. Mike has manv friends on the river and they wUl, we hope, try to show him the error of his ways. Writing School. Prof. W.
