q The uimosf importance 10 those
who contemplate The purchase and

must be confessed that. IN ihis re-.
spcct, The experience Of Northern
msn In the South has not been en-
eouraging since the close Of The war.
That such should have been the case
Is only natural. when we consider
the fact that the representatives Of
different political opinions intensi.
fed into the bitterest OF partisan
animosities during tho late war.
That this political difference should
have prevented Tree and agreeable
social intercourse between Northern
men aud tho old landed proprieton
Of the South, can readily be under.
stood, and perhaps appreciated by
the immigrant. In the case Of such
depredations and wrongs as have
been committed on Northern men,
Il Is but fair to State that tho VIC
tins belonged almost exclusively
to the class Of political adventuren
known as "carpet, baggers,' and In
many instances gross provocation
has called forth this unfriendly dis
play Of hostility, It is probable,
however, that the carpct-bag pres
tige and power is but short Lived,
and TINT the measure Of its dura-
tion will directly affect the social
status Of an northern settlers in the
Southern States.
The South promises all the ele-
ments of future material prosperity,
and, under favorable circumstances,
the people Of that section will prove
themselves equal 70 the task Of
building up that prosperity, by
hearty efforts and well directed agri-
cultural and commercial enterprise.
The political aspect Of the South
at present is unfavorable. !. It is,
however, far more favorable than at
any previous period since the war.
1t can never reach a peacable aspect,
however, until its political tissues be-
como changed. W a4afaiAF i
While we advise Northern mer
to 20 South to live, we advise then
for their own good iandlthe good o.

oEsGOE FLouR.-We have been shown a
letter written by a citizen of Albany. from
San Francisco, dated February Is, 1869,
fEom wkich we extract the following relative
to Oregon four:
"There was a committee appointed at the
Merchants Exchange, to inspect -four and
let the people know what brands Of -four
would stand the highest. The millers here
feel very sore about the Oregon -four being
put in the market and taking their custom
ers away from them. They intend TO do all
they can to injure the Oregon -four. and BY
putting it at low grade they think to run
st out Of the market. There was committee
of three California millers appointed to ex-
anime the -four. Several Oregon brands
and the California brands were given them.
.fhey were all agreed on the best, and you
may judge of their surprise when they had
given the magnolia" the first, and the
sSteam Mills the second, (both Albany mills !.
They said that they never saw sample Of
-four equal TO the Magnolia. and they would
have to shut down their mills if they could
not buy wheat cheaper. for they could not
make that quality of -four for the present
price"

That BALL.-The Anniversary Ball OF
Albany Fire Company, on last Monday night,
was decidedly "big thing" and passed of
with the greatest eclGt. No exertions were
spared by theseveral committees to render the
affair a complete success. The walls and
ceiling of Parrish's spacious Hall were mag,
nifcently decorated with flags, evergreens,
pictures, notices, inscriptions, etc.,-all
appropriate TO the day and the cccaSion.-
The music was euphOnious and inspiriting,
and the floor managers prompt in oil the de-
tails of their duty, while the "boys" of the
Company, attired ia their red shirts, dart
ing and gliding through the mazes of the
dance or mingling with the admiring specta.
tors, added novelty and pieturesqueness to the
occasion. The youth, beauty and fashion Of
our fair city were fully represented, both
0naag the lOokers.on and participants. The
tables were beautifully arranged and boun'
tifully supplied with everything that would
tempt the appetite of the most voracious
Sourmand or the daintiest lady-from roast
ed 'shoat" to the broiled wing of hum
ming bird. There were about sixty couple;
present, besides quite number who were
not couples-making, in all, perhaps the
largest number of persons ever in attend
ance at ball in this city. The receipt:
amounted to $l97 25; the expenses were
$ll7 25, leaving net proceeds of $50
which amount was paid into the treasury fol
the use Of the Fire Company.
In this connection we are requested tC
publish the following resolution, which wa.
