purgatives for family use. They are the
product of long, laborious, and successful
chemical investigation, and their extensive
use, by Physicians n1et::>eir practice, and by
all civilized nations, proves them the best
and most effectual purgative Pill that medi-
cal science can devise. Being purely veget-
able no harm can arise from their USE In
intrinsic value and curative powersfa = other
Pills can be compared with them, AMI every
person, knowing their virtues, will employ
them, when needed. They keep the system
in perfect order, and maintain in healthy
action the whole machinery of life. Mild,
searching and effectual, they are specially
adapted to the needs of the digestive appa-
ratus. arrangements of which they prevent

best and safest physic to employ for chill
dren and weakened constitutions, where a
mild, but effectual, cathartic is required.

PROMPTLY PA1D.-We neglected to notice
the recent visit of Mr.. Geo. Woodward, Ad-
iusting Agent of the Phoenix fire insurance
company. Mr.. Thos. Graham had the mis-
fortune to lose his nice and comfortable resi-
dence, by fire, as already noticed. But,
fortunately, had obtained a policy of the
local agent of the Company, Hon +. A.
Chenoweth, for s., 900. The fire occurred
on the 10th of December, and on the 18th,
was paid, in full, $1,000. This prompt ad-
iustment of the loss, is in perfect keeping
with the Time and fire tested Old Phoenix,
and shows that she is as ready and prompt
to pay loss, as to accept premium.

STATE VS.. MERCER

The jury in the case of State of Oregon
VS.. James K. Mercer, charged with murder
in the first degree, had not agreed upon a
verdict up to 10 o'clock yesterday morning.
At that hour the jury came into court for
instructions, which were given. The jury
retired but came in shortly with verdict of
murder in the second degree. On polling
the jury, II responded affirmatively.
E. N. Morgan, the twelfth juror, when
asked if that was his verdict responded in
words to the effect that he supposed it was.
On being asked by the court if he was satis-
fed with the verdict of murder in the Sec
ond degree, Morgan replied that he had not
fullYa &sde up his mind as to that. There
being no alternative, Judge Bsllenger direct
ed the jurors to retire for further delibera-
ton, which they did. 1t was about 1890
o'clock when the jury retired.
About u:30 Col w. I'll. Efhnger asked
permission of the court to retire to an ad-
joining room to have private consultation
with the defendant, permission was granted,
and Mercer retired with his COUNSEL
After short consultation, Col. Efinger
came into court and stated that under all
the circumstances the counsel for the defense
and the defendant had concluded to with
draw the plea of not guilty and plead guilty
to manslanghter. If TIE district attorney
would conss to tha4 proposition Mercer
was willing |tzeady 70 plead.
Mr.. CapIes stated that he had considered
| the matter carefully 1ad had concluded to
consent to the arrangement. He said that
under existing circumstances he thought
that the State would lose nothing by con
senting. Under his official oath he felt
bound to insist upon demanding, in behalf oi
the commonwealth, all that could possibly
be obtained; to require that the violated Law
be indicated to its fullest limit. In this in
stance he thought that the concession-n il
could by any means be SO regarded
I result in no compromise with justice. By
eonsenting to the Defendants plea of guilty
the absolute certainty of punishment wa
established. There could be no interposi
tion to delay the administration of justice
| no new trial, no bill of exceptions. H
Thought that the certainty of punishment
was Of greater Importance to the State tha1
the degree. when to insist upon the latt
would, involve not only some uncerta
but great expense to the county. T
this view of the case he consented.
Mercer was then told to stand al
Judge Bellinger asked him if he hadN
cluded to withdraw his plea of not gun
and substitute plea of manslaughter.. Mel
Ger replied, g have consented to do that.

- WARNING TO BoYs.-Last winter Cor
wallis youth, came near meeting the same
fate, by being too venturesome. The fol.
lowing is sad warning to skatists: "Char-
ley Young, a young printer engaged on the
McAIinnville paper, was drowned on Christ
mas day. In company with party of boys
he was skating on the lake at Garrison's
ferry, near McMinnville, and needless of the
warnings of his companions, attempted to
glide over a deeH hole where the ice was
thin. He stumbled at the dangerous point,
fell and went through. Being an expert
swimmer he kept at the surface for some
time, but was soon so chilled that he
conld not hold to pole which was extended
to him He sank, and as yet the body has
mot been found. Charley was son of the
late Mr.. Young who for many years kept a
harness store in McMinnville, and was the
sole support of his mother and her smaller
children. He was aged about 10 years, and
was very generally known and respected.

copies of the session laws of 1879 will be de-
livered 70 the Secretary OF State. This
finishes the laws and journals in some ten
weeks less time than heretofore, and speaks
well for Mr.. Waite, the contractor. The
school laws will be completed in few days,
and then the report of the Investigating Com
fnittee will be commenced ard pushed to

FINE CAKE.-One of the handsomest
cakes ever made in this city, was the oRs
presented by Mrs. J. Polly to 7. J. Buford,
Esq, the successful captain of the grand
hunting party on last Monday. The cake.
itself, was most excellent, and the orna-
ments, consisting of birds, flowers, etc.,
were beautifully and a1tistically arranged !.
The supper, for the purity, given by Mrs.
Polly, was grand affair, and reflected the
greatest credit upon Mrs. p as a caterer,
and was more than satisfactory. The tables
literally groaned with the delcacies of the
season. Sorry that our health and appetite
prevented us from accepting an invitation tc
be present. Our friend Buford, however,
with his usual generosity, brought us fail
share of the cake, including some of the
ornaments. Many thanks.

ingly placed him in Mr.. Taylors smoke
house. His cries brought some ladies to the
scene, and he was released at once. In a
few hours the city was filed with all sorts
of reports as to the condition of the China
man ; some intimating that Chinese funer-
al was imminent, ETC., while others declared
he was not seriously affected. At last ac-
counts there had been no China funeral, and
we understand the expected corpse has left
for Portland.
Mr.. Smiths family went to the country
the day following the smoking, and upon
their return found the lost chain upon ta-
BILE on the back porch. They also found
that the two locks, on the outside doors had
been tampered with, and the one on the
front door entirely spoiled, so that it had to
be replaced by new one The supposition
is that the Chinaman had the chain and en-
deavored to effect entrance, SO as to
leave it in the house, but failed.
We have no comments to make upon the
affait except that it is safest and best to let
the law take its course, with Cinnamon, In
Icians, or any other offenders. Mob law is
not conducive to good morals-and although
it may work well in some extreme cases, it
is not usually safe or Apedient.
