Mr, John Mor gan writing from PUinvicw says : 'A great many people are complaining of get ting their cupfull of bitter and no sweet. I think mine is one of that kind. Just in the nice days of harvest I broke two of my ribs, and, then to fill the bitter cup to overflow ing, 1 broke a leg In November, and while at Mr. Leedy's mill getting saw dust, my fine mare, Alice, sickened and died, and now to overflow it all I have the bilious fever and Dr. Star has been giving noisy medicine and if Albany want a woolen factory just come and move my house down and I think they will have a good one." The old saying that it never rains but it pours is proving true with Mr. Morgan.but the brightest weather often comes after the darkest clouds. Insi-ectino It. One of the divers who went to the Bay yesterday morning went down in the hold of the wrecked steamer when the tide was out, and was down about an hour, but as he was only able to make a small inspection of the bottom, on ac count of the position of the boat and the coal that was in ttie way, made no report. To-night it is thought the condition of the bottom will be ascertained. The prospects of doing anything are not very flattering. Concert. Next Tuesday evening a concert will be given at the Opera House for the benefit of the Presbyterian Church, and it promises to be a very fine thing, the best talent in the city being engaged for it. Mrs Langdon, Mrs Chamberlain, Prof. Lee, O H Irvine, Miss Lib Irvine,Mrs Alt house, Mrs W 11 Lee, and Messrs. Win. Fortmillerand Rev Pritchard are the prin cipal participants. The program is being ar ranged and will be published in a day or two. Mussed Some. The goods for Albany merchants taken from the wrecked steamer were brought to Albany to day and some of them delivered to the consignees, when e despatch was received ordering the de livery of the goods stopped until further orders. Some of them were in rather of a bad condition, having been spattered with water, and boxes generally were considera bly mussed. From the Front About fifty Italian laborers arrived in the city last night from the front and during the day have been perambulating our streets, getting their time checks cashed and jabbering general ly. Like the Chinamen they keep their money and you never see any of them beg ging. In contrast several white men have been soliciting generally on our streets during the day. Clark Braden, Rev. Clark Braden addressed a fair sized audience at the V.'. C.T. U. hall last evening on Infidelity and Christianity. He Is a forcible speaker and displays a remarkable knowledge of the subjects he handles. To night at the same place his subject will be "The Worlds Debt to Christianity." Rev. Braden has de bated witn many of the prominent infidels of the country and is worth hearing. Mooiy. Mr. Moody will not come to Albany at all, even for the college services, nor will he go te Salem. So he informed Rev. Irvine in Portland. This is to be re gretted very much. Necessarily he has to go where most needed, and hence we un derstand will be in Astoria. If he only touches the consciences of some of the editors there he will do a noble work. A Boy Brakeman. Another one has been injured Last Sunday Young Hap persct, son of Road Master Happerset, of Roseburg, met with a painful accident at Oakland. He is a brakeman on the train and in some manner got caught and had one of his legs badly mashed, so badly that It was decided that it would have to come off. Their Share. On Saturday Mrs.A.W.

The town fathers have vented their spleen upon the festive town cow, by passing an ordinance making it a misde meanor for a cow to be found on the streets during the night time. Prineville Review, Absekt Minded. Judge Holgate some times goes to the court house on business and leaves a notice on his office door that he will be back by a certain time.
