Coon News. s.-The Portland Standard of
the 18th inst, says: Capt. J. G. Ainsworth
yesterday received the good news that l25
miles of railroad iron had been purchased by
Mr.. Willard, and that the first shipment
would be made on the 18th inst, which is
intended for the construction of road down
the Columbia from Wallula to Cello. We
are further informed that it is the intention
of the Company to have the road completed
in time for the Fall trade of 1880. The
magnitude of the trade in Eastern Oregon
and Washington Territory has necessitated
this step, as it is impossible for the Compa-
ny to rely ON the river to move the great
amount of freight, and while they have a
feet of steamers amply sufficient to do the
business, the uncertain stage of the river
makes it unreliable and dangerous, and sub
jects the Company TO great loss.

and every one gives perfect satisfaction.
They are the best, and most substantial
stock saddles in use-hand-made. Call and

FAVORABLE MsNT,on.

It is go seldom that the Pcrtlari dailies
have anything favorable te say about Coz
vallis, that the following complimentary re-
marks by MIR. Foley, correspondent OF the
STANDARD, are duly appreciated, and we take
pleasure in reproducing them. IN his Cor
Wallis correspondence CT the 2trh inst, Mr..
Foley says: The work on the West Side
railroad Is rapidly progressing and the neigh
of the iron horse is expected TO be heard in
| this city about Christmas Mr.. VIVA. Mast,
| with number of werkmen, is bes:ly en-
gagged constructing a station house which
will compare favorably with any between
here and Portland. It is the general expec-
tation that Corvallis will be, at no distant
day, one Of the greatest shipping points en-
the Willamette. The construction of the
Yaquina Bay Railroad will commence at
this point next spring. This, with the ex-
tension Of the West Side road, will give
trade lively impetus, and Corvallis will,
next Summer, be one of the best business
centers In Oregon.
The following additional cheering words
are from the Daily Orego,.ian of the 26th
inst. !:
The grading on the westside road is now
completed to Corvallis; ties have been laid to
the Luckiamute river, and sufficient num-
Der have been forwarded to the front
for the entire distance The ship Eliza Me-
Neil, from Philadelphia. bearing enough
rails to finish the track, has arrived at As
toris, and part of her cargo will be lightered
to this city without delay. The ship also
brings 32 ton Baldwin locomotive, and
some frogs and other supplies. Barring un-
looked-for delays and possible accidents, the
people Of Corvallis can promise themselves
Christmas ride on the rail +" within the
limits OF their own town.

Turkish Fires and FTrcmcm.

The fires in Turkish cities are fre
quently very destructive, and this arises
not only from the combustible character
Of the structures, but from the absence
OF efficient provision, both in relation
to brigade and apparatus to arrest the
-aarse4. .Flse ex'inSrishmest of fres
is undertaken by private corps, who,
though generally pretty prompt in re-
spending to an alarm, are by no means
hasty in going into action, for their rulo
of business is first to arrange as to the
rate OF remuneration for their assistance;
and unless the property. owners comply
with their demands, they will permit
the fire to rage, ana gaze upon the
destruction with composure until the
tortured proprietors yield TO their OK
actions. After the alarm is given -
which generally proceeds from the police,
who, with their iron-tipped slaves strike
the pavement, and then in loud voice
proclaim the district where the fire is
burning-the firemen proceed to the
scene bearing their machine upon their
shoulders, and when they reach Their
destination the negotiation for extin-
enlistment is commenced, and is very
freunently not concluded until house
after house is reduced in ashes. II
seems incrednlous that such a state
OF things should exist on, at least the
borders Of civilization; that the safety OF
destruction of city should be Above
to depend upon the humor OF a hsndiu
of scoundrels wholly insensible to thu
ordinary duties of humanity. But so il
is, and even Constantinople is undel
the protection against fire of a cores
ponding group Of incendiaries, who, by
their sordid conduct, deserve to perisl
in the flames they refuse to qHeDeh. =

L. II a Miracle z

Under this head the Rome IN. "
Sentinel, OF late date, says: Gertie
Barton, fourteen yea:-old daughter Of
D. w. Barton, OF Deansville, has been
out of health for a year past, and since
July last has failed rapidly. The other
day when the child was supposed to be
dying, she was raised by Mrs. U. z.
Pooler, Of Deansville, who commanded
her 10 rise and walk. Mrs. Pooler had
dreamed a short time before that she
had driven death away from Gert:e and
bad bathed her in the waters OF life.
The vision so impressed her that she
eIhorted the little girl TO have faith that
God would make Ter whole and she
would recover. She professed to have
faith that God could cure her, and arose
from what her friends aud physicionp
supposed would be her death bed, and
walked about the room. She soon after
ate heartily, it being the frs. time in
nine DAYS that she had taken any nour-
ishment whatever. Previous efforts to
swallow anything had thrown her into
commissions. Forty eight hours after
she rode out with Aer friends and has
been well aud hearty since. Mrs.
POoler's account Of the healing, pre-
pared for the press, concludes THUS
has been manifested the power of Christ
at this day, as it was when He was on
earth in person; for He abides and
4 walks in His little ones" The case has
caused great excitement where the facts
are known, as well it may. No one has
contradicted Mrs. Pooler's statement.
