HARRIS Bros. Charley Harris, who is
at San Francisco, has sent up some
goods which are calculated to make the
mouths of our epicures water, listen;
Marienette behring's, Dutch herrings, Rus
sian sardelles, French mackerel, SWISS
Limberger, Cream and Eastern cheese. Sar
dimes and mustard, pete de foie gras,
truffies and smoked salmon, and apple butter.
These goods are all genuine and of the
latest importations. But it is worth ride
that far in the "springs' wagon to see
Charley display his new invoice of ladies'
cloaks. We are disposed to be merciful to
our fellow citizens who enjoy the "sweet
prerogative of life in the way of help
mate; but if some of their purses do not
suffer before that invoice is exhausted, we
are much mistaken.

night Chinese thief, kewn as the "Chicken"
who has already served one term in the State
Prison, stole box of tobacco from The store

who struck him over the head with pick

Chinaman was subsequently arrested by
Deputy Sheriff Powers. In the Jail it

Since his arrest he has been lying in stupor,

BELLIGERRNT OPIUM SMOKERS. Yesterday
afternoon two young men in company with a
woman of the town went to Chinese wash
house in the rear of the Mint, and wanted to
smoke opium. The proprietor having the
fear of the law before him declined to let them
have it, whereupon the delectable trio
made all manner of threats, compelling the
Chinaman to lock up his house, fearing that
they meant business. He then came down
town for an officer, but when the latter
and woman had vanished.

Hard Times.

No matter what may come, some one Is
growing about hard times
but, from what can be CLEANED from the
journals Of the state, they are even fair at
this writing. There has been a quicken
ing Of trade for a mcnth in nearly all
branches Of business, and consequently a
need for more lands. Railroad repair aud
construction is necessiiating the employ
ment of extra men, and the farmers will
soon be in need of much help. Compare
lively speaking, the times never have been
hard in Oregon .--Astorian.

The committee discover not ono good
reason why tho proposed exchange

The report is accom- panied by a bill
authorizing the President to transfer
the custody, control and management
OF all Indian tribes from the interior to
the war department, temporarily, whom
ever in his judgement he shall deem it
advisable to do so, either on account of
actual or apprehended hostilities of In.
dians against the United States, or in
case of difficulties between Indians and ana
settlers. The bill further proposes to
authorize the President to detail auy
officers of the army to act as Indian
agents or inspectors, or in any other
capacity in the Indian service, and ex.

the same rules and regulations as civil

Or to take steel against host Of troubles,
And, by extracting. end themi To pull. to tug.

To tug, perchance to brsak--aye, there's the

For in that wrench what agonies may come,
When We have half dislodged the stubborn foe,
Must give us pause; there's the respect
That makes an aching tooth Of SO long life;
For who would bear the whips and stings Of
pains.
The old wifc's nostrums, dentists contumely,
The pangs Of hope deferred, kind sleep delayed.
While he himself might his quietus make
For one poor dollar? Who would fardels bear,
To groan and sink beneath load Of pain,
But that the dread of something lodged within.
The linen and twisted forceps from whose fang.
No jaws at ease returns, puszes the will.
| And makes it rather bear the ills it has
Than fly to others it knows not Of.

And thus the native hue Of resolution

And many one whose courage seeks the door
With this regard, her footsteps turn away,
