THE CITY AND COXJWTEY.
Wednesday, Nev. lO.
Prosperous. The Medical Department of
the Willamette University, starts on its course
this winter under favorable auspices. There,
are twenty students in attendance on the loo
tures, and the chairs arc all filled by Profes
sors well qualified in their respective depart
ments. Contributions too, for their Journal
are coming in, and it ia expected to prove a
valuable adjunct of the institution.
River Travel. We learn that in the fu
ture, the Pi T. Company' propose to start a
boat from Portland for this place on every
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and
Saturday, five times. The water is rising
and the indications are that trips will bo made
reilnrly, so that travelers will now be able
to depend on making their time according to
calculations. The boats will be kept pretty
busy with freight this winter; there arc, it is
estimated, a million bushels of-wheat await,
ing transportation in the counties on the river.
t'osTtr Socp.j-A friend from Yamhill in
forms us that Mr. J. J. Burton, of that coun
ty, recently brought home a pair of fine Span
ish fowls for which he had paid $25. lie
put them in the ben bouse wlfh the oommon
stock, and a few nights after the boys levied a
contribution on. his poultry yard for a soup.
Tho first that fell into their thievish clutches
were the blooded stock, who suffered decapita
tion maugre their high extraction. The raid
era did not report wnetner tjjeir. meal was
more than ordinarily palatable.but it is to hoped
that such is the case, as otherwise there would
bo a great loss without corresponding
gain. ; - ' ' j
Goiso Ahead. Gen. Reed evidently does
not intend that for want of a few fine days
his new Opera House shall stand through the
coming winter in partially unfinished state.
Yesterday workmen were busy all day on top
of the building despite the steady rain. Some
were engaged in putting up the cornice to the
western part of the edifice, others were carry.
ing up the firewall to the height of the front
building, others again were busy at the win.
dow casings and so on. On Saturday last
the wind was so strong that the workmen
were compelled to leave the upper and exposed
parts of the building. But a few more days
work will complete the exterior, and the bal
ance can be done at leisure.
A Two Mosths' Trip. Mr. A. A. MeCnlly
and family were absent from Oregon two
months, and the extent of their journeying
during that time, plainly illustrates the great
change that has come over the fortunes of the
Pacific coast with the construction of the Conti
ncDta Railroad. They were eleven days
going in a pleasant and convenient manner
from Portland to Philadelphia, visited some
of the principal cities of the Atlantio sea
board, went to Chicago, spent weeks in visi
ting friends in the West and Northwest, and
weDt to St. Louis, where Mr.- McCulIy attended
the National Capital Convention as a delegate
from Oregon. Then- they returned to Califor
nia, and thenoe came overland by stage from
Sacramento, making a tour we could hardly
have comprehended as possible of achieve
ment if looked forward to five years back.
Mr. MeCnlly brings back with him some sub
stantial trophies of his successful travel. We
have received from him a bottle of sorghum
syrup, made on a friends' farm in the West
and a pocket full of hickory nuts gathered by
him on a farm in Iowa, owned by him and
" Dave," in 1844, at which time the now
stalwart hickories . were mere withes in size.
Thursday, IVetr. lO.
Correspondence. Postmaster Rickey in
forms us that the letters mailed in tho office
at this place, average 250 daily.
.Married. Oct 31, 1869, by Rev. B. N,
Longsworth, at the residence of the bride'
parents, near Jefferson, Mr. D. W. Jones to
Miss Maria Baruett.
The good people of Corvallis were probably
gratified by seeing the Albany steam up to
their city yesterday, us the river has raised
sufficient to encourage the attempt.
As Esd. The last brick of Reed's new
building was laid on the walls yesterday
And now we hope .soon to see the jinsightly
scanoidmg away from the walls of this orna
ment to tho town.
The stage office will hereafter be located at
the Express office, whero those desiring to see
Mr. Corbett on business will generally find
him. The stage will, for the present, stop at
tho Union Hotel near the long bridge, which
m ty be considered the Salem " terminus,"
and a very good "terminal point," hungry
passenger will find it.

Attempted Odtbaoc. We are informed
by parties from Lafayette, that last week two
young fellows about fifteen years of age, suc
ceeded in obtaining possession of a quantity of
chloroform, and in administering it to a young
lady of about the same age, with the intention
of stupefying her and then violating her per.
son . They were fortunately discovered before
their villanous design was accomplished, and
we learn that they are supposed to have ab
sconded j probably they have been helped off
to California by the steamer Oriflamme, per

that may follow the action of the grand jury

not expected to apply. Mr. Reed opens
his Opera House Friday evening for a social
dance. . The last one was a social success, and
pleasant gatherings are projected for tho win
ter in fortnightly installments.
The Opera Building Company is incorpora
ted and organized, capital stock $100,000,
President, C. A. Reed ; Secretary, P. L. Wil
is; Treasurer, G. WV Rhoadea. The inten
tion is to form a strong Company with means
sufficient to take the block known as Reed's
Opera block, complete the same in the best
possible style, for the use and benefit of our
city. The object is one that will certainly
redound to the publio good, and we hope it
will fully succeed. We need a general Hall
for social purposes, lectures, concerts and pub
ic meetings, and there is no one man in Sa
lem able to invest $50,000 in the work. A
corporation can safely do it, and will receive
handsome returns.
Friday, November Its.
Cox A Ear hart have a fresh ad. in to-day-
a sort of general card as to their business in
tentions.
Hail Storms. Early yesterday morning.
the storm, which had been raging with great
violenoe all night, assumed a new phase, and
we had two hail storms, lasting for a few min
ntes each, but covering the ground with a
coating of- ice balls, ranging in size from duck
0 buck-shot.
Raftiso. Yesterday we observed two large
rafts of logs slowly floating down the river.
and were informed that they came from about
Buena Vista, and were for the uso of mills in
Salem. The lumber business is lively, and
there is no reason to expect it ever to be less
so in the future. A large load of wood was
also brought down on a flat the first of the
season, we believe.
Escaped Cohtict Heard From. Some lit
tle time since, aa we learn, a convict employed
at the biick-yard made his escape. . He was
one of the three eonvioied four years since of
the robbery of Mr. Love, at Canyon City, had
worked out most of his sentence, and bad
proved so faithful and trusty as to command
confidence and -disarm suspicion ; but taking
advantage of favoring circumstances, he made
his escape. So, at least, we are informed, and
also that he has been heard from as making
his way to the coast, and that steps are taken
to have him arrested before he can take pass
age out of the country.
I
i
River Navigation. Wo learn at tho office
of the P. T. Company that the regular winter
programme will be immediately put in opera
tion. The Echo will start for the upper river
Saturday, go to Harrisburg, and perhaps to
Eugene. Next week the Albany and Echo
will run the river above Corvallis. The Ac
tive is now running to Salem ; the Fannie
Patton goes to Corvallis to-day, but next week
the Relianoe and Fannie will commence the
regular passenger line from Oregon City to
Corvallis, going up Monday, Tuesday, Thurs
day and Friday, and down on Monday, Wed
nesday, Thursday and Saturday. It is expect
ed that one of the irregular boats will always
fill the intervening days, and make a line
every week day from Portland to Corvallis.
Life a Failure.
Salem, Nov. o, 1869.
Ed. Statesman : : Mortimer began life un
der the usual conditions of povery, with
out friend uor influence to help. He re
solved nevertheless, to make his mark. He
became industrious, and industry brought
him wealth. He was sternly upright, and
that secured respect. His generosity kept
pace with his gains, and that won renown
so that at the age of fifty he was the richest
man in bis State, and its cniet magistrate

Astonished, he said, "it cannot be,l sbnll be

vain. The agitated form grew weak. Tick.
tick, the seconds went, and before the shad
ow8 came the catastrophe was upon him.
Turninir to the wall, in an agony no pen
can describe, he cried, "my life has been a

in Salem, are living to exclaim at the last,

Society on the hearts ot the people who
gather yearly at this place.
The Board wish here to express their ap
preciation of valuable services rendered
by Joseph Holman. Esq., who devoted
much time and labor " to forward this
scheme.
Many donations of money, fancy articles
and provisions were received, too numer

all the donors are here cordially thanked
for help rendered. And it is to be hoped

Donations from Grave Creek, a distant part
cf the Statit shows that the institution is
becoming known and appreciated. The
year past has been one of labor and difli
culty to the Board, for obvious reswons, tbn
greatest of which has been the want ot
money to carry out the intentions ot the
Society ; yet, under these clouds of
discouragement we see the silver lining,
giving hope and proinlxe of a brighter fu
ture. Only one child has been received,
and thitt one under plea of the necessity ol
immediate assistance, and befoie tho Home
was Dnished.
M. Royal and w fe took charge of the
bouse after it was finished for several
months, hut other business demanding bis
attention, be left, and the Home is now
ciosed until another suitable person can be
found to fill the place. 1

Alaska. Tbo New York Sun concludes
an article thus :
The question now is. What shall we do
with our elphant? Politicians, with an
eye to appoinments and profits, would
doubtless be glad to have us spend a few
hundred thousands ot dollors a year in
maintaining a lot of useless civil and mill
tary officials to watch it, with fat salaries
and liberal rations, but we imagine the
people will hardly approve of this plan,
They would rather not throw good money
after bad. We bave paid out $7,200,000
gold, and we cannot get back. Let us
take General 'ihomas' advice, have no civij
government at all, but. only keep a small
military force at one or two sposts, and
there slop.
True, of Course. The Portland Herald
says Mrs. F. M. bates, the accomplished
actress, was "the eldest daughter of Sir
Thomas Parr, having been born in 1514 " !
We implicitly believe the Herald's state
ment, of co urge, but are rather surprised
at never having heard this remarkable
story before. Then again, we would like
to know how the lady enjoys having her
age made so public.

The First Laugh. Patrick saw
a bull pawing in a field, and though
what fun it would be to jump over
catch him by the boms and rub his
nose in the dirt. The idea waa bo
funny that he lay down and laughed
to think of it. The more he thought
of it the funnier it seemed, and he de
termined to . do it. Bovus quickly
tossed him over the fence again.
Somewhat bruised, Patrick leisurely
got up, witb the consolatory reflec
