LOCAL IIHCOM). Litkrary Taste. A littln larger audi ence greeted Col. CupelanU Inst night on the occasion of his second lecture, In this city. 'The subject wan "The Mislnkcs of l!ob." It wan handled in a manner sur pawed probably by no other lycucin orator Col.Copeland possesses a vein of wit and humor that pleases without shocking. One never sleeps while he talks. His words iloiv in a continuous 'stream, and his stage action is very effective. 1 lis lec!urcs were really the greatest treat of the year. Right here the people of Albany deserve a lecture for displaying so little taste for a really meritorious entertainment, beside which theaveragcthcatcroffcrs no comparison. A darkey show or a third-class opera that ponder to the lower tastes wil! draw a crowded house at a dollar, while the Ice- turcr, like Col. Copeland, who makes the ribs rattle also, has to speak to a house, characterized more by quality than by quantity. It is the same taste that makes trashy literature preferable to solid matter, and is not peculiar to Albany ; but is a national matter now. 1 he plattorin et to day is not the platform of twenty years Tub M. A.T' SaturimyNkiut. Satur day night comes around this week with a pros pect of clearing weathor in fsct aod not mere ly on tlio flag polo It psys to stand in with the Bremen whether in tournsment matters or fire matters generally. No one in Albany ever mads a cent yet by opposing them .... We observe that there is a healthy trade in Albany for this season. There is this about our city, Whit we get we are keeping. Two banks and a hotel have just shut down at I.os Angelas, and matters thero are said to bs down. Wo want do such boom as that. Steady growth is what builds a eity. Spasms shake a man to pieces in time. . . .Next week our county atlairs will bo run uy a dilleront set of men ;yet no doubt villrnn along in the same even tenor. Sheriff1 Smallman does the proper thing in seleotiug the present Sheriff, Mr. Smith for his deputy, because he knows the business. Mr Redheld will remain in the Clerk's office for about a month and Mr. Davis will run the Recorder's odico alone. . . Linn county has some of the best butter makers in the world, and the number is in creasing. At one timo at was difficult to se cure a good article. Now it is an easy mat ter. The M AjT is not in favor ofproinicuoua Sunday excursions. We should keep Ore gon from tne stigma that eha-acterixes Cali fornia citios, where Sunday exoursions aro the rule and immorality leads. We are glad to have tho Salem firemeu visit us, but some other day than Sunday should have been ; soleoted. SotVKXiRS. There was a nice com pany ef young people last evening at the pleasant home of Thos. Montcith, there ere also some nice older people, but the lounger generation ruled matters. It was a Y. P. S. Sec. social. Several lively games were played, the minds of those pres ent received some polishing touches, and a vcrv palatable lunch was served. After this came the souvenir part of the affair. Two bright looking Misses presented each of the guests with some pretty ribbons, : those received by the ladies were attached f to bran new pieces of wood, such as keep the good housewife's sheets and pillow : cases from falling off the line, while i those received by the gentlemen were nt- ' tached to pieces of clay such as grace the s lips ot rut nciahbcrs, or the more rulv i ones of the little Hoy nnd girl, as they send soap bubbles noallng through the nir, '. rlain ornaments, they made very nice souvenirs, and sirucK the ukmocrat man . who was present, In a remarkably tender spot. Of Mutual Uknki-it. Geo, E. Hardy, of Lebanon, has made the following propo sition to the people of Lebanon: "I ngree to construct a telegraph line from here to J Albany nnd operate the same nt the usual rates established by all other telegraph lines, to furnish everything and keep it in repair, on condition of n bonus of three hundred dollars; thatls if the citizens will donate that much I will furnish the bal- nee and obligate myself to operate the ine. If the people ot that cltv ilonotnc Cent this nrnnosillnn nt double nitick snred Shcy hardly know how their bread is but tered, une ot the crying needs ot tnnt vi cinity is a telegraph line to Albany from riiatcitv.

We aro lufomed by Mr. brook, of Sweet Ilonii', that their school lyis just closed a very prosperous term under the elliuieut inaimgtMrinut of l'rof, A. J. Shanks. This excellent school closed ou tho -2nd inst,, with forty-eiht students in actual attend ance, and the people havo shown their ap preciation of l'rof.

The School Teachers' The Demo crat has received from State Superinten dent McElroy instructions In reference to the National School Teachers' Association. As several from Linn county will attend we give rates and particulars : The 0. & C. has established the following rates to San Francisco. From Portland, $33-35 ; from Albany, $33.15.

Two meetings were held last evening by Albany fire companies No. i's who have already voted $50 for the hose team without opposition, voted another $50 to assist in defraying the ex. penses of the team to Seattle, No. 2's held a rather stormy meeting and voted the same amount by a scratch. With $200 raised by the citizens the boys left this morning in a very fair financial condition If they win their share of the races, our citizens will be content, and there is little doubt that they will, for they have the metal. .If Scoggins, the Portland profes sional timekeeper, who kept slow time for Albany and fast time for Portland, were in Albany he would receive a benefit. The actual time made by the Albany team in the speed race transpires to have been 27 1-5 seconds, but the Portland man had his watch say about 30. The whole thing was the grandest Imposition ever perpetrated. Our Signal Service. It seems that the signal service system of weather signals has been discontinued at many places. The dispatches to-day state that Representative Hermann called upon the signal service division of the war department and urged the continuance at Albany, Oregon, of the weather signals which have been maintain. cd here for some time. Gen. . Greeley, chief signal officer, gave Mr. Hermann an assurance that weather signals shall be maintained at Albany. Mr. Herman and Mr. Greeley have our thanks.

A Brownsville corres pondent of a Pendleton paper gives the fol lowing Incident: "It Is rather a peculiar circumstance that two brothers, separated by hundreds of miles, should be candidates for the same office at the same election In their respective homes j yet such was the case with Mr. Thomas Kirk and his brother Mr. Riley Kirk, who were candidates for representatives on the republican tickc t In Umatilla and Linn counties. The popular ity of both men was fully demonstrated by their ruuning ahead of their tickets. Yet while Mr. Thos. Kirk was elected, his brother was defeated by a small majority." The same writer savs of Brownsville: "It Is a pretty little village of seyen or eight hundred Inhabitants, nestled among the low lying inns on tne caupoo:a river, near its confluence with the Willamette, 104 miles south of Portland, on the N. G. R. R. (The N. G. may stand for no good or nar row gauge, either would be correct.) The town has many features worthy of notice There are woolen mills, sash and door fac tory and a tannery, besides several smaller shops.
