In Virginia heretofore, the man who owned
$500 worth of real or personal property might
hold il against his creditors, while the clerk or
mechanic who had nothing but his salary was
liable TO have that garnisheed for debt. The

A. G. Marshall presiding.
| The question for discussion was :
| Resolred. That the Farmers OF Oregon
should unite and build warehouses of
their own. in order to do away with
the class of middlemen or grain specu-
lators who, at present, control prices
and reap the only profit.
Speeches were made by John Propst,
Martin Miller, F. S. Powell, Solomon
Crowder, II. c. Powell, L. G. Marsh
all, r. Gown and }. j. Blair. These
gentlemen ably discussed and present.
ed their views in relation to the pres
ent embarrassing situation, and the
proper steps to be taken to overcome
the monopoly that has been sostrongly
held to their disadvantage, and are
wide awake to tie interests involved
in the matter now pending. which will
certainly rebound to, their benefit In
the coming harvest. The members of

LOCAL MATTERS.

FIRE.--The alarm of fire was given
about half past eleven O'Clock on Mon
day night. The fire originated in the
fine residence OH Second, west Of
Washington street, owned by j. B.
Sprenger, late of this city, but at pres
Sentresidingin Portland. From N. B,
Sprenger, who was occupying the
building at the time. we learn that the
fire caught in the kitchen, having most
probably got its start in the wainscoat-
ing, and from thence communicated to
the ceiling and roof. The kitchen
stove stool in close proximity to the
wall between the kitchen and dining
room, and the wainscoating had be-
come badly charred by the heat from
the stove. There was alsoa stove in the
dining-room, opp site the kitchen
stove, and the two kept the wall be-
tween them warm. The engine was
promptly on the ground, and although
the boys worked with a will for near
or quite two hours, despite their efforts
the building was pretty well consumed.
The buildings to the west and north.
although within probably less than
twenty feet Of the burning pile. were
saved. All the furniture, ETC.. inside
the building wassaved. The members
of the Fire Company deserve praise
generally for the manner in which
they did their duty. The report that
prevailed in the early part of the fire,
that Foreman Webber had been fatal
~ injured by the falling Of burning
timbers, created the most intense ex-
citemeRt for time, but, we are happy
to say, was unfounded. One report
says the building is insured for $2,5OO
in the Globe another is that the in
surance policy expired a few days be-
fore the fire. We believe the building
cost some $1,000, and was one among
the best finished in the city.
