WEDDING CAKE-We frequently receive
wedding cake, of all styles and make, but
never, until the past week, received any
that was three years old. Mrs. Peak
daughter of Mr.. Thos. Russell, of Alsea, J
and her husband celebrated the third anni-
versary of their marriage on the 22d ult.
Upon the occasion of their marriage Mrs
Peak made three fruit cakes, and the third
and last was cut on the late anniversary
This cake, sample of which is now before
us. seems just in its prime, and is really
splendid. Many thanks to Mr. & Mrs.
Peak for their kind remembrance of the
editor of the GAZETTE. May they live to
enjoy many happy anniversaries of their
wedding day, and life be "all golden
dream"

Sad Havoc Is Created

Among the tenants of the mouth by allow
ing impurities to collect upon their surface
or in their interstices. SOZODONT re-
moves every vestige of tartar from the
teeth, and renders their premature decay
impossible. It not only imparts to them
whiteness and vigor, but communicates
hardness and rosiness to the gums The
breath acquires most acceptable fragrance
from its use it is purely botanic liquid,
and it may be relied on to accomplish it's
identifying effects With injuring the en-
amel like a gritty tooth paste.

A LARGE ENTERPRISE. During the past
week quite a change has occurred in the
proprietorship of the Plummer fruit dryers
in this valley. A company has been formed
consisting of Wallis Nash and Mr.. Reel
man, of the English colony at Corvallis,
and Nathan Whealdon, of Benton county,
and they have bought the manufacturing
right of the drier in this county from Jones
& Sill, and have also purchased the Benton
and Lane county rights. Next season they
will put out canvassers and introduce "a
great many driers throughout the three
counties, and our people will then be able to
save their fruit crops-Mr. Sill has been
employed by the company and will engage
in the canvass next spring. Heretofore
there has been difficulty in finding ready
market for the drie,l fruit, but this viii now
be remedied. The new company has rented
the old Alden fruit dryer in this city, and
will buy all the fruit offered for sale and
store it at that place, after which it will be
shipped direct to England. We are glad to
see mopied men like Mr.. Nash taking hold
of this enterprise, as its success is thus as
sured, and its success guarantees to our far
mers remuneratiye prices for their fruits,
which, heretofore, has rarely been market

At no recurrence of the season, which the

the wisdom and courage of their descendants
have so firmly maintained, to be the habita-
tion of liberty and justice to successive gen.
erations-

President of the United States, do appoint
Thursday, the 9th day of November, inst,

Oar Governor Abroad
y few weeks ago a call was made for The Gov
crhors q! the thirteen original States to meet at
l'iladclphia, Pa, to consider the propricty and
feasibility Of making Il national demonstration
upon the centennial anniversary of the battle of
Yorktown, and to make preliminary arrange
mcnts for The same. In response to that call
our noble Governor met with the other Cover
nors last week, and from the following report to
the Columbia Register he must have made II most
profound impression upon the minds of the vast
assemblies of people whom he addressed while
there:
PHILADELPHIA, October 19.-Thc reception Of

Rain at Last.

INSI'
rains since last Friday. Perhaps those Farmers
who hcyc not been able to keep up with their
cotton picking would have preferred thcthat rain
had held of two weeks longer but by that
time the oat crop would have been lost, which,
considering the short corn crop, would prove a
very serious loss next Spring. The Turnip crop
is about ruined, and that will be seriously felt,
uaIcss sowing this late shonll be successful
The weather has turned quite col l. making fires
and winter clothing necessary. 1t is now feared
that we shall have too much rain, and greatly
damage the cotton remaining in the fields.
