Brownsville Items.

BROWNSVILLE, Jan. End, 1871.
Times have been unusually lively here
for some weeks back.
NIessrs. Templeton and Wheeler gave
us an exhibition of 'sDore's Panorama of
Millions Paradise Lost" on last Tuesday
evening. 1t was their first start in the
''show business" They intend giving
exhibitions all over this and adjoining
States during the year. We wish them
much success, as they have spared no
pains nor expense in preparing num-
Der one show, that will be instructive
we'll as entertaining.
Quite large number of the citizens
Of this place and vicinity met at the
school house in South Brownsville on
Wednesday evening, and had under adj
visement the construction of u road of
some description from this place (taking
Eagle Woolen Mills as one terminus) to
the nearest point on the railroad west OF
here. Quite diversity of opinion eS-
| listed as to what kind of road would be
the best suited to our wants. Some IA
vored railroad, some a plank road, but
most seemed to be favorable to macad-
amized wagon road. Committees were
appointed to investigate the feasibility OF
the various schemes, to report at some
meeting to be held at future time.
During last week the sidewalk mania
got among the citizens of North Browns
Vile, and resulted in the construction Of
several hundred yards of good substan-
tial walks, connecting the bridge on the
Calapooia with the Baptist church. This
is something We have been sadly in need
of all winter, as the very soft condition of
the earth was very annoying 10 pedes-

but little effort Sufficient money was sub

necessary improvements, such as fencing

stands IS a credit to the place, and i mon
ument to the indomitable energy anc
