A Tavern Story.

The scene of the following story is
located in the mountains of Virginia
time, fifteen years ago:
We soon succeeded in finishing a very
substantial supper, and, as we sat around
blazing fire, each one with a cigar in
his mouth, ruminatisg on the storm with
out and the solid, warm comfort within,
it was proposed that, to shorten time,
each one shsuld relate some event in his
life, either serious or comic, as he best
saw fit.
Besides our own party, consisting Of
six, there was an unknown person who
had intruded himself upon us, but of
whom we took no notice until it came to
the time of Larkey Hughes to ten his
story. ~
Larkey was tall, gaunt, lantern ,jawed
specimen, hailing from s'down East, who
had remained perfectly silent while the
rest of us were telling our stories, his
chief occupation seemed to be trying to
discover who the stranger was.
Before commencing his story, he went
to the door and locked it, putting the
key in his coat pocket; and then apollo
giving for his strange conduct, but prom
finished his story, he commenced
"Three years ago, gentlemen, I had
occasion to travel over these mountains
on business, and as l had to journey away
from the stage roads, pursued my way
on horseback, with small yalise strapped
on the back Of my saddle, in which I had
good sum of money for those days.
"It was an evening very much ike
this, in this same month, that stopped
at this Same house to escape the storm.
"The landlord was extremely obseqni-
ous in attending to my wants, aud after
our smoke, after supper, he requested
me to join him in drinking bottle of
wine.
"Bcing belated traveller, and nothing
10th, I readily consented !; and very soon
we had succeeded in disposing of six
bottles in place Of one.
Gas might be expected, after taking
SO much wine, I became very talkative
and my host soon knew as much Of my
business affairs as / did myself. And,
of course, among other facts, he became
aware that my small valise contained .
large sum of money.
"My host kindly volunteered to take
care Of my bagge, if I would leave it
with him but, although had taken too
much wine, still I knew enough to de-
cline his magnanimous offer. And wish
ing him good night, took my yalise in
hand and went to my appointed room.
a had taken enough of the wine to
make me feel very nervous 50 that I
found it difficult to compose myself, and
my feelings we're not at all improved BY

NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.


THE simplicity and practicability Of this new
IL Plow commends it favorab1y to the special
notice of every farmer. It possesses decided
superiority over all other plows now in use. The
wheels are four feet in diameter, and run on the
unplowcd land. Its entire construction is in no
way complicated. The plow is managed in every
manner with ease, and requires only two levers
to be used in making any alteration: The sape-
by the following evrtifeate 80
We, the undersigned, citizens of Linn county,
Oregon, having purchased and used upon our
farms the "Gay" Plow, hereby certify that the
same has given entire satisfaction. Its facility
for adjusting to suit the depth of furrow without
moving from the seat lis simple and easy. We
like the plow for its draught because the same is
brought to bear directly upon the plow-beam in
stead of the carriage also, because it is strong
and durable, all except the woodwork being con-
structed of wrought iron-no castings are used.
The wheels running upon the solid land is an ad-
vantage over other gang-plows, in striking off
land and in plowing, not having to make the nee
essary changes in the machinery, and the seat is
always level not throwing the driver forward or
sideways as in other plows. Better work and
more of it can be accomplished by the use of this
Plow than by hand.
We take pleasure in recommending the ''GAY'
PLow to our brother farmers, as one having no
superior in Oregon.

THE FIRE AT NEW ALBANY


From the New Albany Qnd. Ledger,
we CLEAN the following concerning the
late fire at the De Paw House in that
city:
The porter of the hotel left the bag
gage room to make fire in the kitchen
about four o'clock, and when he left
there were no signs of fire in the lower
part of the building. Fifteen minutes
later the fire was discovered, and then the
flames were issuing from the baggage
room into the main hall leading to the
main stairway, and leaping into the Office
and along the vanished paper on the
walls and the dry wood work, they spread
with fearful rapidity TO the stairway, and
thence to the halls on the second and
third stories, filling them with smoke and
heat The fire as rapidly communicated
with the rooms on either side of the main
halls, and scene of the widest alarm
and confusion ensued.
Miss Sallie Lennox, who clerks in
Reineking's store, and had room on the
third floor, was awakened nearly suffoea-
ted from the smoke that filled her room.
In her bewilderment she rushed through
room 81, occupied by Mrs. G. T. and
Miss Chaffin and Miss Alice Cunningham,
of Columbia, Tennessee, and jumping up
into the window let herself down upon
the balcony below, a distance of about
ten feet. In her fall her head struck
upon the iron railing of the balcony, cut
ting two gashes, and she was pretty
severely bruised about the body. She lay
in kind of stupor on the balcony, while
the flames were rushing out of the front
doors on the first floor and curling around
the balcony, threatening to consume her.
From this perilous position she was
rescued by Mr.. Croel Richards and Capt.
Thomas Kunkle.
Mrs. G. T. Chaffin and her daughter,
and Miss Cunningham occupied room No.
50 on the third floor. When they awoke
the fire was all around the room. They
rushed down stairs, however, through the
flames and smoke, and were saved. Mrs.
Chaffin had one of her hands badly burned
and one ankle sprained. In descending
the stairs she fell twice from the binding
and sitting effects of the smoke. Miss
Cunningham was more fortunate, for she
had fled down the stairs through the
flames and smoke with the speed of a
deer, and escaped uninjured. Miss Chat
fin also escaped without injury. All the
ladies fed in their night clothes and bare
foot. Their trunks were saved, and they
left this morning for Mitchell, their desti-
nation.
Nearly all the boarders and guests of
the hotel lost more or less of their bag
gage. Mr.. Resin Jamison, the well known
river pilot. lost his valise and one boot,
but saved the clothes he had worn yester-
day, and one boot and slipper.

ORGANIZATION.

The Judicial election in Tennessee is
rapidly approaching and the Conservatives
must be wide awake to the necessity of
bringing out every possible vote. Our
enemies are organized in oath bond leagues
and their ranks are not easily broken.
Though we haven this circuit and district
very small majority there is great dan
ger of defeat Energy, activity and per-
severance will win the day for us, and
rescue the courts of justice from the
hands of partizans; while apathy, indif-
ference and neglect cannot fail to bring
upon us a continuance of the terrible
reign from which we have suffered so
much during the last five or six years. Is
it necessary to appeal to men, who in
captivity have drunk the blood-stained
dregs from the cupof bitterness; whose
relatives have been murdered in their own
homes, while the assassins received the
plaudits of the courts; whose houses
have been pilaged at the dark hour of
midnight while the plunderers walked
abroad at MONDAY and received the
official patronage of the government; who
have been well-nigh dubbed to death by
luOIC odfdSO sueAt1 VIII lQQldQS
that bivouac along the slopes of the Sierra
Nevadas, whose wives and daughters
have been outraged before their very ewes
while their homes have lighted up the
pathway of the plunderers2 If these are
not sufficient to rouse people and bring
them to the polls we have no language
that will penetrate to their callous souls.
grown over with the encrustations of
long continued oppression and encased
within an iron home.
Noble old Sullivan has completed her
organization and her sentinels keep watch
upon the towers of every Magisterial
district Let the work go forward
throughout the district. Defy the threats
of Radicals and storm their very strong
holds. If the other counties will but
keep the enemy at bay Sullivan will come
to the rescue with a majority of more
than fifteen hundred and Mcfarland.
Reeve and Haynes will be our next Chan
cellor, Circuit Judge and Attorney General.

PARTIES.


Parties, partiesl We can hear of moth
ing but parties. We can't pick up an ex-
change that is not full of articles on par
ties. 1t is clearly evident to our minds
that there are but two parties-ihe Demo-
cratic party and the Radical party. These
being the only parties, we must go with
the one or the others 1t is the veriest
nonsense to talk about getting up another
party. The National Democratic party is
the one with which we must affiliate. 1t
is the only hope of the government-th
only refuge for our people. 1t is the only
party that is altogether fair, and that
favors equal taxation on all men; that is
opposed to high tariff to protect few
thousand monopolies; that is in favor of
taxing the bond-holder; that is in favor
of remodeling the oppressive revenue tax
law; that faVors univeral amnesty and
impartial suffrage. Its platform being
nOn-proscriptive, it can truthfully be
called the party of peace.
1t is the progressive party. Connect
cut shouted the first Democratic victory
in the East, and the shout was reverbera-
ted by Oregon in the far distant West.
New York quickly followed suit, and the
Radical losses in Washington City and
other local elections throughout the North
are indicative that the people of that part
of the nation have become sick and tired
of the corruption of the now predomina-
ting party. And while these disapprovals
of the Radical party at the baIlot-box
shows that there is a revolution going on
at the North, the leaders of that party
are pickering and caviling with each
other, and there is great want of harmony
in their ranks. The. scuff1e over booty
