On the oil inst., some gentleman while traveling near Kendalls bridire on the Calapooia in Linn county, about twelve miles east of Corvallis, found a hat with a bullet hole through I he crown, a blood' necktie, and some other articles of a mans wearing apparel. There was also considerable blood on the ground and various evidences of a severe struggle having taken place. The articles were taken to Albany and considerable excitement cre ated, and the impression soon o-ained ground that a murder had Leon committed. The clothing and other articles were recognized :is belonging to W. Y. Francis, a shoemaker who resided at Halscy, and who had Lett Albany for hit Home Late on the previous evening with several hundred dollars on his per son. Among the articles found was a small canvas sack in which he had been seen to put his money a short time before leaving Al bany, and oit which were the initial letters W. "NY. F. A tele gram was immediately sent to S. L. Porter t llalsey, inquiring if Mr. Francis was at home, and a reply was received to the effect that he had gone to Albany with the intention of returning on Frida', but he had not so returned, and that his horse had returned riderless with blood on the saddle. All these facts, and some others that we do not deem worthy of repetition, seemed to lix conclus ively the fact that Mr. Francis Had It"ii I'oiilfj Henlf Willi, And the deputy sheriff with sev eral other parlies went to the place of the supposed murder to search for the body of the missing man, but all efforts were in vain. Since that time it has been ascer tained that on the day of the sup posed tragedy, Mr. F. had recorded a deed in the clerks office at Al bany, transferring all his real prop erty to his wife, that he had also, placed several notes in the hands of a collector at Halse' a few days before directing him to pay the money when collected to his wife, that he had also recently taken out an insurance policy on his life in favor of his wife, and that when he left home on the day above mentioned, he took with him two . hats and other unnecessary arti cles, all tending to create the im pression that This 1V:is .lust a MUlr Came Gotten up by Mr. Francis to ac count for an unexpected departure. There seemed to be no reason however for such action on his part as he was doing well in busi ness and had accumulated property to the value of perhaps four thou sand dollars, and seemed to be happily situated in domestic af fairs. Mr. Francis was for a con siderable time a resident of Cor vallis and was well known both there and at Halscy, and sustained a good reputation. The Sequel to the Miiij. On "Wednesday mornings mail from Lebanon, June loth, the fol lowing letter reached the Albany Democrat effice: Lekaxon, June 15. Y. W. Francis is here looking very hag gard. He cannot give any correct account of where he has been, or how he came to where he first came to himself. The Odd Fellows have him in charge now. I found him sitting on the sidewalk earty this morning. He says I am the first man he has spoken to since he encountered the one on the bridge. Respectfully yours, V. H. Reed. Immediately on receipt of the above the editor telegraphed to T. J5. Black of llalsey, that a letter had been received from Lebanon stating that Francis was there, and in bad condition, and suggesting that his friends go to Lebanon and look after him. He also wrote at once to Mr. Reed at Lebanon, re questing him to send full particulars of the matter. In reply he has the following statement sent by him. He savs: "Wednesday morning at about five o'clock I saw a man sittuiir on the sidewalk in front f Dwiecas grocery store. He had & white handkerchief tied about his head and there seemed to 1k something the matter with him, so I crossed the street to where lie Mil and asked him what the trouble whs. He said he had been tin-own from a horse about ten days ago. 1 then asked him where he lived and he said at llalsey. and said his name was AY. AY. Francis. 1 then told him about the clothing, hat, necktie and scarf pin having been found on Kendall's bri'lgc and brought into Alban', and the circumstances attending the mat ter. He interrupted me and asked if they found a linen coat; I told him they did. He then said he left home that day to go to collect a note and on his way back he met a man and a woman in a wagon on the bridge. The man he said was of medium size, sandy complexion and red whiskers. 1 hey stopped him and asked him numerous questions about farm lands and crop prospects, what land could be bought or rented for and the best sections of the country to look for lands, etc. He said he raised his hat in one hand and was wiping the perspiration from his forehead, when Someone Shut a PMol. ne could not see who it was though. His horse became fright ened and jumped, throwing him off and the last thin"- he remem bers is the sensation of falling from the horse. The rest is all blank until he came to himself somewhere in the mountains, he! does not know where exactly. For several days he wandered about and does not remember to have eaten anything, until one day he found some wild black berries. He ate a few of these and a short time after found some water and got down to it, drinking a good deal. The water made him very sick and he threw up the berries he had eaten. He was bruised up badly and very sore and lame. He managed to kill a bird and a little after that a rabbit. He was so hungry and had no way of cook ing them, that he ate them raw. Then he has no memory of what occurred for a time but remembers having found a cabin, though he cannot tell where it was. "When I saw him there was a bad bruise on his forehead larger than a half dollar, and he was verv lame in one hip, complained that it almost; drove him crazy at times the pain was so great. I took him and put him to bed where he went to sleep at once. He would not cat any thing. He had been asleep only a short time when Messrs. Claugh ton, Houk and Gilbert came in to see him. Prof. Gilbert said he knew him and went to his room and woke him up, when these gen tlemen came in. Prof. Gilbert asked him if he knew who he was, and Francis said: Yes, you are the school superintendent. 1 asked how he came to be smooth shaved. He said he was shaved but he could not tell how he came so. He had a pistol with him and said the parlies at the bridge did not take that away from him. He said he Xfnd Keen Itnbbrri r Hit Jlouejr And watch. The talk seemed to worry him and lie cried for a time, finally saying he was very anxious to go home to his wife and wanted to know if there was not some way of getting there, lie spoke of making the transfer of his property to her and said he knew something would happen. He talked of a good many things in a rambling way, and asked to see a livery man, so he could get home, saying he had no money with him but could get it when he got to llalsey. I saw Mr. Bilyeu and he got a team ready and at half past eight o'clock started home with him. It is a mystery to all here where he came from and no one seems to have any satisfactory explanation. Mr. Bilyeu returned from Halscy where he left Francis with his peo ple, and he reports that Halsey people were as much surprised to see Francis as we were here this morning. Mrs. Francis was con fined only a few days ago, and is still very weak. The meeting be tween them was very affecting. It seemed to affect Francis very strangely. He fell down and went into something like a fit, frothing at the mouth like a mad man. Dr. Smith was called at once and had great difficulty in forcing his mouth open to get him to take medicine. "When Bilveu left he was still unconscious and had not. spoken. Respectfully yours, W.1I.1:ki:i. The Story Is a Strange One. Another correspondent of the Democrat says a package of money was received from San Francisco amounting to over $400, and con signed to AY. AY. Francis, by Martin and Smith, or Smith and Martin, of San Francisco. Mr. Henry Habnc, of "Halsey, states itiat rraucis nas recovered par- IjV. T- I . .1 tially from hi Mckness, nilitough still in led. He joeys Franeis claims the $-100 was money due him for work done long ago, when the jwirties for wIkmii he worked were tumble to pay him. and this is now payment of the debt. Some who are familiar with Francis handwriting say there is no doubt but the address on the package is m his writing. Mr. Habne says Francis talks some, part of the time rather incoherently, altlioiigh most of the time he Seems to he national Huougb. No one has been able to get a sat isfactory explanation of his disap pearance from him yet, what he says being about as our Lebanon correspondent has given it. The Halsey people are at a loss to find any satisfactory explanation of the mystery. Various theories are ad vanced, but none of them seem to be very generally accepted. Most believe that he is not in his right mind, and has not been for some time back, even before transfer ring his property to Ins wife. All in all, it is a very singular story, and the probabilities are that the true iuwardnessof the whole affair will never bo fully explained. Should any tiling of further interest transipre, we will endeavor to give our readers full particulars. News and Notes. If Depew can now be elected a senator from New York, after i;he exposure of bribery in his interest, the Alta thinks it will be a new chapter in the history of low down politics. Vanderbilt has many millions, and Robertson has a thousand appointments; but they cannot elect Depew. It having been stated that Gen. Rosser had discovered a new route for a portion of the Canadian Pacific railway, which would save at least one hundred and fifty miles in distaucc, the London Engineer remarks that the General had better look again; perhaps he could save it all. "Whittaker is to be dismissed from his cadetship, but he has cost the country a good deal of money; has brought undeserved blame upon West-point; has caused tho removal of the able commander of that institution, and has been a nuisance generally. It is a pity that the colored people had not a better representative. It is very probable thatBadeaus Life of Grant will not take rank as an authority any more than Shermans Memoirs. Badcau is too much of a Boswell to be an impartial historian. He seems to have unjustly belittled Meade and othor commanders, and his ac counts of the closing campaigns in Virginia will hardly be accepted as entirely reliable. Grant is so great a soldier that he docs not need such panegyrists as Badeau. Most Generals win victories by attrition, superior numbers and forced fighting. There is no need of misrepresentation of the Vir ginia battles and victories. Grants success warranted his policy, and his fame is assured. The 2vev York Sun frankly admits that it was not justified in publishing the false report that Blaine was mixed up in tho Star route scandal. For once the Sun does an honest thing. Sara Bernhardt, having gone home with a sack full of American money, Patti and her Nicolininow contemplate coming to gather a golden harvest. These people belong to one of the least de serving and best paid classes iu the world. InscrsollH Infidelity." Dr. J. L.

The Countess, his wife, was prostrated by an intermit tent fever, from which she was freed by the use of the native remedy, the Peru vian bark, or. as it was called in the language of the country, Quinquina." Grateful for her recovery, on her return to Europe in lfi, she introduced the remedy in Spain, where it was known under various names, until Juuuv.us called it Cinchona, in honor of the lady who had brought them that which was more precious than the gold of thelncas. To this day, after a lapse of two hun- nrai ami any yean, science na.s jjiven ns nothing to take its place. It effectu ally cures a morbid appetite for stimu lants, by restoring the natural tone of the stomach. It attacks excessive love of liquor as it does a fever, and destroys both alike. The powerful tonic virtue of the Cinchona is preserved in the Peruvian Bitters, which are as effective against malarial fever to-day as they were in the da. - of the old Spanish Viceroys. We guarantee the ingredi ents of thoe bitters to lie absolutely pure, and of the IhM known quality. A trial will satisfy you that this is the bct bitter in the world.
