D m nation, Disapprobation. There has been seen on several occa sions a small steamer lying or plying around or near the month of the river. It always pulls out when the men on board odserve anyone from shore eying it with glasses. Its course was from towards the north. After passing here going south, it may be seen going north the very next day, thus indicating that somewhere near this port, it is dis charging a cargo of Home kind. Shortly after the boat was seen here the last time, two strangers were seen pack ing a peculiarly constructed package or trunk, which seemed to be quite heavily laden. They were making their way A GREAT TREAT. WAS THE BAND BOY’S ENTERTAINMENT An Immense Crowd and A Play that Satisfied Everybody. The entertainment given by the boys of Hie Tillamook brass band which took place last night was in every respect an unqualified success. It had been thor oughly advertised, and the boys were greeted by hii audience that would have delighted any company of players. The play given is entitled, “Foiled, or, A Struggle for Life and Liberty.” “Foiled” is founded upon incidents occurring during the War tor tlie Union, and is designed to illustrate the general popular sentiment con sequent upon bi caking out of hostilities. R alph E vans , a Northern man, residing with his mothei, wife, aud child in a country town, upon hearing the call to arms, volunteers, with- other townsmen, to fill up a company in a departing regiment. C harlotte , E vans ' wife, had prexiously been solicited in marriage by B osworth , a shiniess young Southerner, who burns with a desire to avenge the fancied wrong imposed upon him through his rejection. Hr joins in E vans ' company, dituiniiiii d to betray his comrade into bondage, and, if possi ble to render C harlotte a widow. Upon reaching the seat of war. B osworth ’ s actions excite the suspicions of his comrades, when a quarrel ensues between RALPH and the rejected suitor, terminating in the Southerner's igno minious receipt of a blow. B osworth escapes to the enemy and makes such preparations as eventuates in the capture of E vans and his imprisonment beneath his charge. While in prison, gloomy, half-starved, and in broken health, R alth is \isited by his wife, allured thither by a decoy letter from B osworth . Tho rebel rejoices that he has both C harlotte and R alph in his power. He makes vindictive taunts against the Federal soldier’s wife, and a struggle ensues, wherein R alph , in frantic desperation, overpowers B osworth , when leaving him insensible, lie masters the sentry, nnbais the prison door, and, with his wife, seeks to escape. They fly, are pursued and overtaken by B osworth and a guard. The providential’arrival ot R alph ' s Unionist com rades is quickly followed by the death of Bos- wor 111, wliere by the designs of the villain and traitor are foiled.
