meeting of the incorporators of the
Alden Fruit Preserving Co., of this
city was held last Tuesday, and Eli
Carter was authorized to open out

Investment, and one that will develop
their interests to an unbounded extent.
The company will procure the right

SOMETHING NIcE.-Dr. Geo. w. Gray
lately received from Pittsburg, Pa,
one of the most comfortable chairs we
have ever tested in our life. 1t is
called the Adjustable Folding Chair,
and is so constructed that in a mo-
ments time you can make out of it
either a chair, child's crib, complete
lounge, full length bed, or a reclin-
ing seat for an invalid. There is no
use in our putting it, though, for per-
son must use 1t once to properly appre-
ciate it. Mr.. Gray has put it in his
Office for the accommodation Of his
lady patrons, some of whom find it
very tiresome ascending the stairs to
his rooms.

THE CIRcUs.-Last Monday night
the tent of the San Francisco circus
was completely filled. Some of the
acts were splendid, while others have
been produced SO much that they are
becoming stale. Miss Katie Holloway
is a graceful and fearless equestrienne,
and won the applause of the audience
when she appeared with her trained
horse. Messrs. johnson and Holland
were as good riders as we have ever
seen in the ring. Taken on the whole
the exhibition is very good one and
is we'll worth the price of admission.

FIREMAMs BALL.-The compliment
ary soiree, given by our "Onesters" to
the Portland firemen on Wednesday
night, was grand hilarious and galor-
iohs. Pacific Opera House was filled
with the beauty, fashion and chivalry
of our fair city and its environs, and
throughout the 6eeting hours of the
night the vast hall was one continuous
scene of 'gayety and pleasure. Our
Portland guests speak in highest praise
of the courtesy and favoritism shown
them during the evening, and have on
Iy warm expressions of praise Of the
hospitality Of our gallant "0uesters"
and Albany's fair ladies.

Thirty-one horses were in training
for the fair.
This has been q heavy week for
thieves, gamblers, etc,
TheIe,afe about sixteen sewing NIT
chine men at the fair this week.
One Of the incest things on the fair
ground is the little stream of water
running through it from the Santiam
Canal.
Hugh Small, the NORTHWEST, Of
the Oregonian, was in town during the
week engaged in writing up the Fair
for that paper.
Thos. Parker, late foreman of the
Roseburg Pldiadealer, has thrown up
his position on chat paper and anchored
himself in Albany again.
A BEA6TY.-One of the prettiest
things we saw at our county fair was
q large DOLL about three feet high, dress
ed in the height of fashion, which the
Titus Bros. had on exhibition for the
purpose of showing how well the Sing
er machine is adapted for doing fine
work. The braiding and other work
on the dress had been done in the finest
possible manner. A person can have
no idea of the neatness Of the work UNI
til they are made aware of the fact that
il took three months to accomplish ii

Escape of Bank Robbers.

The four Wilmington bank robbers
Lawler, Hurlbut, Carter and Hope, escap.
ed from the jail at Newcastle, Delaware,
early Wednesday morning. Isreal Rid,
ings, warden of the Jail, was awakened by
slight noise in the yard about one o'clock
and opened the door. He was immediate
ly seized by a dozen men, gagged and
handcuffed, and thrown into coal hole.
One of his assailants threatened to kill him
with knife, but Lawler interfered. The
party then got over the wall by means Of
two short ladders, tied together, which
they had brought
In addition to the banklrobbers, they also
took away Il. Frazier, who was under
sentence Of Imprisonment for life, for the
murder Of Mr.. Eliason at Middletown.
The rescuers forced open the prisoners
cells by jackscrews. There were twelve
or fifteen in the gang, and they are sup
posed 10 have gone to Newcastle from
Philadelphia. When the escape was dis
covered, after daylight, the Warden was
found in snch condition that it was some
time after his release from his bonds before
he could speak or stand. IL is believed
that some women acted as go-betweens fol
the robbers and their rescuers. One OF
the party was taken in Philadelphia on
Thursday.

Night sessions Of the Legislature COM
menced this week, aud great amount Of
business has been transacted, bringing up
the work to the present time, to a more
advanced stage, perhaps, than is usual at
this period of tho session.
Monday was like summer day, and
was even warmer than Saturday and Sun
day, the mercury ranging as.high as 780 in
the shade. The Brooke and Widdicombe
case, from Prince Georges county, was
heard on Tuesday night, by the Committee
on Elections and such members of tho
House as felt interest enough in the case
to listen to It. The evidences of fraud

every dog, and gives the whole fund to the
public schools. The poor man, who keeps
a dog, cannot say that he is taxed to pay
for the rich mans sheep, but the tax goes
to educate his own children, IL the bill
should pass, it will go far to bring the
school fund up to that point where the
teachers can get better salaries than they
get now; "a consummation deyoutly to
be wished, " for they are of all classes, most
poorly paid, not even excepting the day
laborers. A fair estimate of the number
of dogs in Carroll county, suppose, would
give the number at least at FIVE thousand,
probably six thousand. If so, the sum
realized for the school fund, would go far
