A Feasible Project. A. W. Berry intends to erect a block of four dwellings on his prop erty on Cedar street His intention appears to be to sell them, including the lots on which they stand, by monthly installments, something after the following plan: The party pur chasing enters into an agreement with Mr. Berry to pay him say $35 per month for a certain length of time, and in consideration of which he gives the party a warranty deed to the property. It is argued that if one is paying 20 per month rent and adds 15 to this and applies it as above stated he will be paying 180 per year while receiving a credit of 120, being 240 per year better off than if he were paying rent In Oakland, CaL, there are a great many buildings sold on a somewhat similar plan only they charge interest, while Mr. Berry does not. The plan looks feasible and is worth consideration. Dr. Martin has drawn up plans for Mr. Berry of some very handsome dwellings. Alvin Moses, who has been con nected with the Pacific house, for the past year or more, has lately formed a partnership with A. Becker. The gentlemen propose to engage in the raising of cattle on Clatsop plains in Clatsop county. Pacific Journal. 15. House to Rent. Four roems: well lecated: apply at this office.

Tho bodies of Capt Exon, Mate Jamison and the Chinaman, drowned off Long Beach from tho wrecking of the Carrie B. Lake, have not, as yet, been recovered. It is not thought, says tho Pacific Journal, that they will ever be seen, as the dread under tow from the receding breakers has probably carried them out into the ocean, or they lie buried in the sand. The Chinaman was said to have had several hundred dollars on his person. The state board of immigration re ceived a letter last Friday from Theo dore Wilson, who lives near Indian apolis, Indiana, which states that the writer intends coming to Oregon in the spring in company with a small colony to settle here. He says that he will have about $5,000 to invest after his arrival here, and the fami lies comintr with him will all be in comfortable circumstances, and will have from five to six thousand dollars with which to purchase farms. The steamer Daisy sank at Yesler's wharf, Seattle, on Wednesday night Mr. Griswold, the engineer, give3 it as his theory that the boat must have been jnmmed up against the wharf by the wind with sufficent violence to have a hole driven in her bow by a projecting sla , as she filled very rap idly after he noticed her listing. All hands got ashore, but most of the crew lost everything except what they had on their backs. The Daisy was valued at $8,000 and was uninsured. A number of capitalists of the Pacific coast have in contemplation the building of a railroad along the Cascades of the Columbia river and the establishment of a line of steam ers for the rest of the distance. This would practically parallel the Oregon Navigation's main line. The same capitalists talk of putting on a line of ocean steamers which would com pete with tho present trade of Port land.

A doctor named Boyston had sued Peter Bennett for his bill, long over due, for attending the wife of the lat ter. Alexander H. Stephens was on the Bennett side, and Bobert Toombs then Senator to tho United States was for Dr. Boyston. The doctor proved tho number of visits, the value according to local custom, and his own authority to do medical practice. Mr. Stephens told his client that th physician had made out his case, and, as there was nothing wherewith to rebut or offset the olaim, the only thing left to do was to pay it "No," said Peter, "I hired you to speak in my case, and now speak." Mr. Stephens told him there was nothing to say; he had looked out to see that it was made out, and it was. Peter wa3 obstinate; and at last Mr. Stephens told him to make a speech himself, if he thought one could be made. "I will," said Peter Bennett, "if Bobby Toombs will not be too hard on me." Senator Toombs promised, and Peter began: "Gentlemen of the jury, you and I is plain farmers, and if ws don't stick together these 'ere lawyers and doc tors will get the advantage of us. I ain't no objections to them in their proper place; but they ain't farmers, gentlemen of the jury. Now, this man Boyston was anew doctor, and I went for him to come an' to doctor my wife's sore leg. And he came an' put some salve onto it, and some rags, but never done it ono bit of good, gentlemen of the jury. I don't believe he i3 no doctor, no way. There is doctors as is doctors, sure enough; but this man don't earn his money; and if you send for him, as Mrs. Susan Atkinson did for a negro boy as was worth $1,000, he just kills him and wants pay for it" "I don't," thundered the doctor. "Did you cure him?" asked Peter, with the slow accent of a judge with a black cap on. The doctor was silent, and Peter preceeded: "As I was sayiu' gentlemen of the jury, we farmers, when we sell our cotton, has got to give vally for the money we ask, and a doctor ain't nono too good to be put to the same rule. And I don't believe this Sam Boyston is no doctor, no how." Tho physician again put in his oar with "Look at my diploma, if you think I am no doctor." "His diploma I" exolaimed the new fledged orator, with great contempt "His diploma! Gentlemen, that is a big word for printed sheepskins, and it didn't make no doctor of the sheep as first wore it, nor docs it of tho man as now carries it, and I pint out to ye that he ain't no doctor at nil." The man of medicine was now in a fury, and screamed eut: "Ask my patients if I am no doctor." "I asked my wife," retorted Peter, "an' she said as how she thought you wa3n t" "Ask my other patients," said Dr. Boyston. This seemed to be the straw that broke the camel's back, for Peter re plied with a look of unutterable sad ness: "That is a hard sayin', gentlemen of the jury, and one that requires mo to die to have powers as I ve heard tell ceased to be exercised since the Apostloa. Doe3 ho expect mo to briug the angel Gabriel down to toot his horn before the time and cry aloud, 'Awake, yo dead, and tell this court and jury your opinion of Boyston's practice?' Am I to go to the tomb and say to him as is at last at rest from physic and doctor's bills, 'Git up here, you, and state if you died a natural death, or was you hurried up some by doctors!' He says, 'ask his patients,' and, gentle men of the jury, they are all dead! Where is Mrs. Beazly's man Sam? Go ask the worms in the graveyard where he lies. Mr. Peak's woman Sarah was attended by him, and her funeral was appointed, and he had the corpse ready. Where is that likely Bill as belonged to Mr. Mitch ell? Now in glory a-expressin' his opinion on Boyston's doctorin.' Where is the baby gal of Harry Stephens? She is where doctors cease from troublin' and infants are at rest 'Gentlemen of the jury, he has eat chiokens enough at my house to pay for his salve, and I furnished the rags; and I don t suppose he charges for makin of her worse, and even he don't pretend to charge for curur of her: and I am humbly thankful that he never gave her noth in' for her innards, as lie did his other patients, for somethin made um all die mighty sudden." Here the applause made the speaker sit down in great confusion, and, in spite of a logical restatement of the case by Senator Toombs, the doctor lost and Peter Bennett won. A Reliable Article.

The court room yesterday was a little moro crowded than on any pre vious day of the term. Jos. Dows was arraigned charged with the crime of rape and given till Monday to plead. Ah Gee was arraigned charged with the crime of larceny; till Monday to plead. Chin Toon arraigned for assault with a dangerous weapon; till Mon day to plead. In the case of the state vs Jim Brown, defendant entered a plea of not guilty. The case of Alex. Grant, adminis trator estate P. Grant, deceased, vs. W. D. Baker et al., occupied the at tention of the court the greater part of the day, twenty-one witnesses in all being sworn and giving testimony. The evidence was all in by four o'clock and the remainder of the af ternoon and evening was devoted to elaborate argument on the part of counsel. At 930 p. h. the argument closed; Judge Smith charged the jury, his remarks being of a half hour's duration, whereupon the jury retired and at 10:15 brought in a ver dict for the defendants. ADVERTISING NUGGETS. Don't expect an advertisement to bear fruit in one night. Bread is the staff of human life, and advertising is the staff of busi ness. You can't eat enough in a week to last a year, and you can't advertise on that plan either. A thing worth doing is worth do ing well. A thing worth advertising is worth advertising well. The enterprising advertiser proves that he understands how to buy, be cause in advertising he knows how to sell. People who advertise only once in three months forget that most folks cannot remember anything longer than about seven days. A constant dropping will wear a rook. Keep dropping your adver tisements on the public and they will soon melt under it like rock salt Quitting advertising in dull times is like tearing down a dam because the water is low. Either plan wil pro vent good times from coming. If you can arouse curiosity by an advertisement, it is a great point gained. The fair sex don't hold all the curiosity in the world. Trying to do business without ad vertising i3 like winking at a pretty girl through a pair of green goggles. You may know what you are doing, but nobody else does. It is a mistaken notion that a fino store in an eligible location, sur rounded by attractive Bigns, is a su perior advertisement; for the expe rience of most enterprising merchants is that it pays better to spend les3 in rent and more on advertising. Enterprising people are beginning to learn the virtue of advertising the year round. The persistency of those who are not intimidated by the cry of "dull times," but keep their names ever before the public, will surely place them on the right side in the end. m A man's sign offers a mute invita tion to those only who pass his place of business; hi3 circular can only reach those to whom his personal at tention is given; but his announce ment in a newspaper goes into the highways and byways, finding cus tomers and compelling them to con sider his arguments.
