rcflonSlotcsman SALEM, FRIDAY, MAY 13 THE Cm AMD COTJHTEY. WeCDMatSDAY. - Last week the much contested Nevil road was finally ordered to be opened, oa payment of the assessed damage. The case has been appealed. Portlanders congratulate themselves on having bad no fire alarm for two weeks. We bare bad none for that many months. We saw a wagon load of eggs brought to towo yesterday in the patent eg pack er, which is a set of pasteboard boxes on-j for each egg. Tbey are surely safe from ordinary breakage. As short lime on the stage route is fully established, mails for the north now close at 5 a.m., and forthe south at 3 p. m. The University scholars are to have a nicnic up the river on Saturday next. Tbey will probably go on the steamer Albaov. T. Cunningham k Go. received by boat a new planer which tbey nave contracted to deliver to. the Baena Vista mills. B. F. Drake yesterday sent np to Al bany the smoke-stack and several anatts for the Oil Works at that place. Figcbis. We were gravely informed by the telegraph a day or two since, that a grant of twenty aections per mile for a distance of one thousand miles of a rail road amounts to seven million acres Considering the fact that in Oregon we comDute 20x1.000x640 to amount to 12, 800.000. we suetrest that the compiler at the other end of the line stick to facts and let as do the figuring. Shoo Fly 1 We saw a new rendering of this ridiculous and popular expression oa Sander evening last. Mr. W. Graves, proprietor of the Union Hotel, was eject inz a man from bis premises, for some cause which we did not learn, but be was making bta thoe fly pretty lively about the fellow's coat tails, wbile the other re sponded, " don't bodder me," or words to tbat effect. Fcsiral or Jtsstf D. Walliso. The funeral of the late Jesse D. Walling, killed on Monday, near Zena, in Polk county, will tike place to-day. The re mains will be buried on bis farm in Spring Valley, at a poiot dfiljoated by him dar ing bis life as the place of bis aerial. The funeral will be coederlei fe the Masons of Aosiiy Lodge, eeev4 r ike members of toe tr ir fmrn eat elsewhere.

Jcocs Wusos Mr. Wi!es emeet is town from LHs last eteetf, ercee-! panied by a somber ef evetlerata, wk bad been from here to bear tbe diseas sioa at that place. We learn that there was a full bouse, but tbe ladies were sot out. ''At Lafayette, .the day before, the ladies were out in force. Tbe speaking was in the Court House yard; where there is a fine grove of trees, and tbe occasion was made quit e a gala day. l ney speak-to-day Stlverton. Great Sali or Lasd. We learn from Jo Teal, Esq., who came down tbe river yesterday, that he and B. Goldsmith have completed tbe purchase of eight tracts of land, with improvements, lying about twenty miles east of Harris burg, in Linn county, containing in all about six thou sand acres. The prices ranged from four to twenty dollars per acre, according to situation, and tbe whole, purchase com bines the best of prairie and bill land, watered excellently. The intention is to raise fine stock upon it, and with the means at tbeir command, we may expect that in time this tract will be known as one of the great stock farms of the United States. - Still Asothsb. C. Beal, G. W. C. T., of Oregon, seems to be doiog a land of fice business in his work. On the 2d of May, he organized Waconda Lodge, No 123. with fortv charter members. -The F m officers elected are Dr. W. A. Cusiek, W, C. T.; Mrs. Emma Towasend, W. V. T.: W. Williams;. W. S; J. C. Hays, W..F S ; Mrs. T. S. Leonard, W. T.: M. L. Jones, W M.; Miss Sarah Jones, W. D. M.: Miss Eaia Jones, W. 1. U.; U. Townsend, W. O G.; Dr. W. B. Majors, W. C; E. L. Townsend, P. W. C. T. Mrs. W. A. Cosick, W. A. S.; Mrs. H. P. Jackson, W. R. S : Mrs. J. C. Hays. W L. S.; E. L. Townsend, L. D. This Lodge contemplates building a new hall Rbtukscd to Origob. We learn that Janathan Biggs of Lane county, L. N. English, of Marion county, Garrett Rigg, of Polk county, and tbeir families, have come oyerland, with teams, determined to make their future residence in Oregon Capt. L. N. English and the above named left here two years ago determined to reach South America and make a settle ment ia the Argentine Republic. Tbey seem to have changed thtir destination and to have gone to San Diego, Cal , and being dismasted with tbe prospects there ' have coma backMo Oregon, a country which, in tbeir opinion, viewed by the light of experience, is good 'enough for anvbodr. and a loner ways belter and more reliable than California. Old Capt. English has remained at San Diego, where be has acquired property and is doing well. To Liati Us. Mr. Thomas Cross tarts this morning for the East. We learn that he will visit Chicago aad thinks of engaging ia pork packing in that city, shoald the' prospects seem' favorable. , r Mr. Cross has won the, reputation of be- lng thetnost successful packer on the Pacific coast and thinks that in the East, among heavy operators, he will find a - better field for his specialty, which is tha preparation of fancy hams. Should he engage ia busings there, be will confine himself to this particular branch of bus iness. While we are confident tbat Mr. Cross will succeed ia business any where we feel tbat Oreeoa can ill afford to lose such men and trust tbat bis long resi dence in Web-foot will make it impossible for him to stay away. Waht A Laxd GaaiT. We learn list the people of Tillamook eounty are bend- .iiiK.ir rir(ita tha construction asf waa a a a. ..aw B - of a toad from that point to Salem, and another toward Portland. Several miles of each have beea constructed this sum mer by the little community that is cat off from the rest of the world by the Coast Range. Tbey ask that Congress make a grant' of lands through .which the road passes in aid of tbe undertaking Certainly no caBe shows more clearly good reason for such a request. HFhe proposed road lies through a region mountainous country for thirty miles, where the land can never be made to yield tie Government a dolIar,unIessitia open ed by means of a road. It is not worth much ihere, bat will at a future day be of loot importance as timber land. Some occasional tracts may be atiilized immediately, and tbe prospect of future usefulness of tbe remainder woald add sufficient to tbe financial credit of enter prise to make it a success; Thus by do nating one-half of a strip of land, now of no use at all, the other half will be made valuable, and a section of country now undeveloped will be aided ia making itself a prominent feature in tbe indue trial economy of our Stan. A former Legislature memorialised Congress on this subject, and we hope to see tbe next one tke such steps as will result in something being done for that county. THOMiDiT. Itimb. We yesterday received the Ms- rysville Daily Appeal for March 27, 1870. Slow time, tbat. Griswold's block is wonderfully im proved by that coat of paint.

Tbe candidate bets that every nominee on tbe Democratic State ticket will be elected, and our friend "coppers the bet Appointed. Mr. J. Henry Brown bas been appointed Assistant Marshal to take the census for tbe County of Marion, by U. S. Marsha! Thos. G. Young.

Bis arm, which has caused him a great deal of Buffering, bas so far recovered as to permit bim to travel, though it is still necessary to keep it in a sling.

Fob the Pihitintiabt. Sheriff Thornp on, of Umatilla county, arrived by boat yesterday, having in charge five prisoners sentenced to tbe Penitentiary. Three of these go for three years each, having been convicted of larceny, ia stealing sixty head of horses from tbe UmatilU Reser vation. Another gets ooe year for bur glary, and an Indian goes for one year for stealing cattle. I ney were put oa a 'bus and taken direct to tbe Penitentiary, where tbev will no doubt be speedily in ducted into the mysteries and miseries of brickmaking. Peshatcbi Explcsios. Mr. L. who was at work in the . South Salem Quarry, was badly hurt aboot tbe bands and arms yesterday by a premature explo sion of a blast. It seems he was eagaged in tamping a charge when, by some acci dent, tbe-fuse ignited. His hands were powder-burnt and also received several hurts from tbe splinters of stone, many of which lodged in his hands and arms. Tbis is tbe second occurence of the kind lately. There must be aomething wrong abt-ut the arrangements. Sthasgi. While seated at oar desk yesterday writing, we observed that the glass chimney of a lamp which had beea ased the eveaing before, was cracking and snapping at a lively rate. Tbe lamp was in its nsual position and certainly bad not been touched for aa hour. The snapping continued nntil tbe chimnev naa spontaneously resoivea itself into a total wreck. If any one can explaia this, it may be tbe means of quite a savin ir to the whole community ia tbe item of lamp chimneys, ouca occurrences may be known to others but this is the first we aver saw or beard or.

Those who were punctual had other appointments, and a motion to ad journ was tbe first business transacted Mr. O. C. Applegate, who had been in vited to deliver a poem, reached the door, manuscript in hand, just in time to bear tbe result of tbe vote announced.

Gentlemen wbo sat on tbe steps talking, inform as that as many as one hundred persons came to tbe door while tbey were there. lours truly bad been very busy and reached tbere about 9 o'clock too late.

I hereby announce my self as a candidate for County Judge at the June ectloa.lSI). I SETH B. HAMMER A Torpid System. Sometfmts, without acy assignable cause, the physical streagth and animal spirits give way, and a strange torpor falls alike on tbe body aod in tellect.' 9 here ia little or no pain perbape, but the natural vigor aLd elasticity of the nervous and muscular ajstem seeirs to bave departed, and an Indifference to the 1 -esares ef life, and even of Its responsibilities, takes tbe place of that earnest in terest ia both which character's avwy well bai aoced saiad whea in a healthy condiilon. This state of partial eolUpaa la olten lbs premoiil- tery symptosas of some seriuus malady. It indicates ' uembtakably tbat the vital powers are languishing and need a etimnleat. In such ceets tbe affect of a few doses ot Hostettet'a Stomach B Iters is wonder fully beneficial. I The great tonle wakes up tbe sys- test from its drowse. The secretlooa and tha circu lation receive a new impetus. Ths relaxed nerves rec&ver the r lastidty under the operations of the peMfie, like fee slackened strength of a musical In strument In the process cf tuning. Lethargy and dehUity are replaced by energy and vigor, the spir its riae, aad life that almost seemed a burden wbile the season of depression lasted, becomes onos more er Jojeble. That such a radical change should be produced by a remedy entirely devoid of the power ful alkaloids and minerals so extensively ased In mod era practice, may seem incredible to those who pla their taith oa the medicinal efficacy of active poiaoos, bat if those skeptics will take tbe trouble to enquire of ih-ee who have tested tha corrective and alterative virtues of the Bitters under the etr. eumstaaoea described, tbey will find tbe statement to be true. : i . . . -- - Capital Engine Co.

Unfaltering devotion to the Union, first, last, and . forever; aod , unwavering fidelity to toe constitution and its amend ments, and tbe laws of oar National Leg islature. '.:-.".'-' 2d. We wholly approve tbe principles and policy of the administration of Pres ident Grant, as carrying into practical application tbe principles for wbich we have successfully striven. And we par ticularly commend those points ia his In augural Address, wherein be declares "let it be understood that no repudiator of ooe farthing or oar public debt will be trusted in public places, and ' it will , gd tar towards atrengtbeaiog a credit which onght to be the best ia tbe world,'.' and "I would protect tbe law abiding citi zen , whether of native or foreign birth, wherever his rights are prejudiced or the flag of our country floats;" and, "I will bave oo policy to enforce against the will of tbe people." ... 3d. We bave confidence tbat tbe Ad ministration will wisely and firmly pro tect tbe interests and sustain tbe dignity of the Natiot in respect to other nations, and especially with regard to our just claims against Great Britain.- - 4th. We denounce all forms of repudi ation as a national crime, and the na tional honor requires the payment of th public indebtedness ia the utmost good faith to all creditors at home or abroad, not only according to the letter,, but the spirit of the laws tnder which it vras contracted. And tor this purpose, we favor a strict economy in the Administra tion of tbe National Government, and tbe application to such payment of all sur plus revenue, from whatever" source de rived; aod that taxation should be equal ized aud reduced as rapidly as tha na tional faith will permit. " 5 lb. We make no distinction betweea eitizeas, whether of foreign' or native birtb; and that we sympathize now aad ever with mea of all nationalities striving for self government. .. .. .. Cth. That we' are opposed to any change in our naturalization daws which shall admit to citizenship aoy foreigners not now entitled thereto under said laws. 7th. We favor a judicious system of railroad and river improvements iu Ore gon, in order to develop- our resources and invite settlement of our ntfoccup'ed territory and for tbis purpose insist that Congress should" make us liberal grants of aid. . ' I 8th. We are in favor of a tariff for rev enue, with such discrimination in faver of our domestic manufacturers as -will not diminish its efficiency for the purpose pi revenue. f 9th. We favor universal amnesty to tbe people of those States lately in rebellion, which have been restored to full relations in tbe Union. 10th. We are in favor of fostering the cause of education, and are opposed to any diversion of tbe common scboal funds vi mis otate to any otner purpose tnan the support of common schools. lltb. We recognizor in the Union Re publican party the measures and men who saved tbe Government from destruction, and that its continuance in power is the only sare safeguard to national peace and prosperity.
