LINN COUNTY FAIR.-We visited the
Fair Grounds last Wednesday, in COM
pany with Mr.. Nixon, County Treasurer,
and were very agreeably surprised at
what we saw and learned. The Fair
Grounds are one mile South of town.
About one hundred acres are enclosed
with a good board fence. The Society
have paid for their lands and owe but
very little for any purpose whatever
They have recently completed large
building termed the "Pavillion :" have
dug several wells at several points; have
erected stables and other houses conve-
nient to the race track, while sundry
tradesmen are erecting buildings adapted
to their various business demands. A
new feed stable has been recently built
expressly to accommodate strangers and
those from a distance. The race-track,
one mile long, is now in excellent order,
and we were much surprised to learn
that there are now on the grounds as
many as twenty-six horses training fol-
the races. The Fair will be held Octo-
Der I'd, Sd, 4th and 9Th, TUESDAY, Wed.
nesday, Thursday and Friday. We hope
and expect to see it well attended. Moth
ing with which we are acquainted SO
stimulates agricultural interests as well
conducted agricultural fair. Before the
introduction of Fairs in Illinois the breeds
of domestic animals-such as the horse,
sheep, hog and cow-were of very In
ferior quality; but now few countries can
equal that State in fine stock of all kinds,
and improved agricultural implements
In fact, the good effects of Fairs may be
seen in the varied ramifcations of indus
try in all those communities where they
are established. Let every good citizen
of Linn county attend, and in every other
way evince deep inteaest in the forth
coming Fair.

The Oregon Herald of the 18th inst,
for whose editor we entertain the highest
regard-takes issue with us in a column
and half leader, on the Senatorial ques-
tion. Several points are raised on which
we would like to give an opinion but for
want Of time this wish cannot at present
be gratifed. And before our next num-
ber will appear it is probable the Legisla-
ture will have settled the question by
electing some one U. s. Senator; in
which event it would be folly to say any.
thing furthor on the subject. We desire
now only to say few words. We took
grounds last week against the reelection
of Senator Nesmith and in doing so we
are fully satisfied that we reflect tho SEN
timents of ninety-nine hundredths of the
Democracy of this portion of Oregon, as
we'll as our own. Our views on this sub
ject, Notwithstanding the Herald's we'll
written article, still remain Unchanged
The Herald insinua es that VIC are gov
erned by our "feelings and sensibilities'
in this matter but this is simply mis-.
take. We do not know Nesmith person.
ally; hence we cannot have, in the very
nature of tho case, any personal ill'feel-
ing toward him. We oppose him because
we think sound policy and correct princi-
pie alike demand his defeat by Democrats
Ncsmith is weathercock. If the fall
elections go Radical, Nesmith, though now
a Johnsonite, will flop over to Congress
in which event he would do US infinitely
more injury than Simon-purc Radical
Nesmith may like Democracy tolcrably
we'll f.; but he loves Senator Nesmith a
great deal better; aud his past history
shows that friends, and party, aud prin.
ciple-all, all will be sacrificed if they
stand in the way Of the Senator's rcaI
or imaginary interests.

To MAKE a PoLITIcIAS.-Take out
his brains, if he has any, and wash them
with milk and water; clear the inside OF
the head of everything that may have
gathered there in consequence of educa-
ton; and when you have completely emp
tied the skull (Which you will find very
easy matter) rub it over with handful
of sage we'll beaten into dust; this process
will be sufficiently gone through, when
you will find the head assuming variety
OF chameleon hues; then take bunch OF
promises, the yolk of rotten oath, hard
ened by constant exposure, spoonful OF
picked reputation, half pound of auda-
city, as much falsehood as may be conven-
lent, and grain or two of floquacity, chop
ped very small, which you will deposit in
the hollow of the head. Then cut off h
ear, aud put them in his pocket-the
eyes must be garnished with tea leaves
to keep them open, and if you can posi-.
bly, procure slice of good salary it will
increase the gout of the entire. When
the whole is ready for cooking, fasten a
paper fillet round him to keep him from
changing color, upon which, FOR the sake
of distinction, you may write, ''To be lei" !"

AYERS AMERICAN ALMANAC is now
ready for delivery gratis, by Settlemief &
Co., to all who call for it..
Among the broplems of high science
which the doctor presents in it, is the
startling assertion that the friction Of the
tides upon its surface, retards the earth's
revolution upon its axis, or holds it back
with force of G000 of horse powers,
hence it is easy to see that without some
counter force the globe must rotate SLOW
er and slower until its revolutions wholly
cease. Then with perpetual night on
one side, and degree of cold far below
any now known, we should have on the
other. "fervent heat from the sun,
which would melt the rocks and make
the mountains run like water. But we
need feel no alarm. He shows a counter
poise which nearly balances this resist
ance, and will maintain, substantially, the
present mundane condition, through ages
upon ages yet to come.

Important from the Russian Telegraph
ExpeditiOn-The Entire Route Explored
-All Doubts Removed.
From tie Rochester Daiiy Union and Advertiser,
March 10.
To those who may at any time have enter.
tanned doubts of the feasibility of constructing
the telegraph line through Russian America and
Asia 10 connect the two continents, the informa-
tion Just received C,lll, at once dispel their
doubts. The entire eSsl bility OF constructing 4
line over the entire route can no longer be ques-
toned. Colonel Palmer has received from St.
Petersburg letter which gives very interesting
inform alton. IL is from Mr., s. Abasa, Russian
gentleman who resided in our city for long
time, and who was Justly esteemed by all who
knew hun. He went to Russia under the aus
pices OF the Telegraph Company, and proceeded
with party to make eXaminat ons for the route
OF the telegraph through the region to the east
OF Amoor river. He writes under date OF Janu-
ary lS, from Oscotsk, and states that he has not
only surveyed the entire country from that place
eastward 10 Apadyr river, but has determined
in person the route OF the telegraph line.
This district is that of which little is known,
and connects the Anadyr, where Colonel Bulklcy
went last summer with that portion of Siberia
which is settled, and about which there was no
doubt. II presents no obstacles, and the work
of construction will go along there without diff
Guilty. MIR. Abasa sent his letter by post to
ITkurst where it arrived on the 10th OF Febru-
airy. Thence II was sent by the wires 1000 miles
to ST. Petersburg, and lett there by mail for this
country ON the 2lst of February. Mr.. Abasa does
not appear to have found anything in trayersing
the country that he explored that excited re-
mark as TO the practicabilitv of constructing a
line. A glance At the map will at once show the
region he visited. 1t is the unknown country"
about which the croakers say so much. AS the
entire line of the RussO-American Telegraph has
been explored, surveyed, and the route located,
aud considerable portion Of the line con-
structed, the day draws near when the wires will
flash intelligence from one continent to the
other with as much ease as they now send 1t
from town to town.
