A HENS EGG.-Mr Thibaud Schaub who re-
sides on the river, distance above Oroville
brought into our Office the largest sized hens egg
certainly. that saw. accompanied with a
quart bottle OF the vintage OF 65 wherewith wash
it down. Promising to give it due measurement
before devourng it, We placed the egg and bottle
away together Tie election returns gave us
violent hcadiche, and both were torgotten.-
The devil of the institution found the bottle
and has siace Imagined himself sick. and has
been laying of enjoying calomel and quinine. -
The other evening, while rumsging the library of
= onr Office to ascertain positively how Maine voted
tor President in 1910, we found the egg and, 10
the monster shell was broken and lying inside of
the outer she'll, and floating in it, like the Great
Republic in the Bay of San Francisco, was well
formed egg Of ordinary size. The outer shell was
broken so that we could not obtain its dimensions,
but il was sufficiently large TO he sound on the
goose" We want that bottle, and have charged
our imp, on the peril Of receiving more in the
office, to find and produce it, We are satisfied that
it is ubie bottle. and that the inside is filed
with nectar lit fr the gods. We had intended to
use it in drinking the health of Governor Gorham;
hut suspect devil has exhausted it celebrating
FIR Governor lIaight. 1t is doubtful whether
cen ever make good Republican OF that boy. He

NoTror TO SsrrLERs.-Notice has been issued
from the laud office at Marysve. that the plat of
Tpwnship Is North. Range East, was Llled in the
Registers office the 9th day of September. A. D.
1867 and settlers are notified to file their decara

vile. within the tine prescribed by law. or their
rights will be forfeited. This township is within
the limits Of the Oregon Railroad Company's res
ervation the map of which will soon be filed in the
land office when the claim OF the company will
attach to all odd sections of the township not claim
ed and registered. This township corners to the
south and east of the Village ot the village of Wy
andotte and embraces Bangor. Honcut City, Lin
: coin House, etc. Settlers in that township should
immediately file in the land Office statement Of
their claims or il upon odd sections they will soon
lie forfeited TO the railroad company. We are un-
der the impression that this entire township comes
.,rpperly and fairly under the clause reserving min
eral lands. and that ii may he placed beyond the
claim OF the railroad company by those interested
in its mines, making the proper aiidavits 10 that
effect and fling the in the land Office. This

remove the claim after it has attached.
There is another consideration in connection
with this subject. of interest TO the residents Of
.Orovle and that is the removal of tie land upon
which the town is situated from the claim OF the
railroad company. By an act of Congress approx
