" AROUND THE WORLD"

It has been well said that Gen. Grant, in
his tour around the world, was the guest of
Queens and Emperors. the honored of all
nations. In ordersthat everybody may read
the brilliant record of his remarkable career
from his boyhood's home to the completion
of his extraordinary journey, Hon. j. T.
Headley. one of the leading historians of
the age, has carefully written his biography
and presents it to the public in an illustrated
book of travels, which should be in every
library throughout the land. Julius Brown
son, Esq, of Philomath, is the agent for
this county, who will soon make canvass
for the same.
Gen. Grant was received on his trip by
Queen Victoria of England, King Leopold
OF Belgium, the Khediye of Egypt, the Sui
tan of Turkey, King Humbert of Italy,
Pope Leo XIII, President MacMahon of
France, the King Of Holland, Emperor Viii.
liam of Germany, Prince Bismarck, King
Oscar of Sweden, the Emperor Alexander Of
Russia, the Emperor Francis Joseph of Aus
tria, King Alfonso of Spain, President Gre
vy of France, NJ. Gambetta, Viceroy Lyt-
ton of India, Prince Kung of China. the

ALsEA INDIANs.-We are in receipt of
long letter, dated Collins JAM 2, 1880,
signed by Indian Grant, making serious
complaints as to the manner in which the
Indians at the Alsea have been treated by
the government officials. We know moth
ing of the matter, but if the complaints are
founded in fact, the matter ought to be in
vestigated This Indian charges, among
other things, that SS, 600 had been paid for
the removal of the Alsea Indians to the Si-
letz, when the facts were, that the indians
moved themselves. This Indian says the
settlers on the Alsea have been very kind
to them, In furnishing medicine for their
sick children. and letting them have pro-
visions on credit, &c. The writer says the
Indians have never shed the blood of the
whites, although it is true some of the bad
Indians have taken things that did not be-
long to them. But he charges that the
government officials set the example, by
taking things that the government intended
for them. He says if the government will
do as its representatives. have promised, that
the Alsea Indians will go, peaceably, to the
Siletz, and that their removal need not cost
the government only the amount necessary
to pay Mr.. L. E. Davis for ferrying them
across the Yaquina Bay, at Newport The
letter is too long for publication, but we
give this for what it is worth.

BABY KILLED IN THE MOTHERS ARMS

A bAbr KILLED Nv IHE MOinEno AhMS
In reading of some of the heart-rending
scenes of the late terrible tornado, we do
wonder that the day is designated as the
.s Black Friday" of Oregon. From the
Portland Daily Bee, of Monday, we con-
dense the following particulars of a terrible
calamity that befell family near Spring
vile, below Portland. But short time
ago Mr.. Henry Beckett, with his wife and
child, arrived from Iowa, and purchased a
piece of railroad land back of Springville,
built small cabin, and commenced to clear
his land. He was at work about a squarter
of mile from the house. His wife usually
carried him his dinner, taking the little
child along. On Friday, about noon, the
wind howled fearfully through the pine for
ests around the cabin, and she anxiously
awaited the return of her husband. About
o'clock she became desperate, and taking
her babe to her breast rushed out into the
tempest. She had gone not more than
dozsn yards from the house when mon
arch of the forest fell across the house, hnrl-
ing broken limbs like hail. One of these
limbs struck the child from her arms, crush
ing it dead at her feet. She tore the limb
from off the mangled body of her darling,
and screaming as if her heart would rend
asunder, ran down the mountain side before
the hurricane, leaping the fallen trees like
deer, and as she sprang over one heart
rending moan fell upon her ear. She turned
and looked only for single second, and
then, with, a tremulous wall, sank to the
ground beside her dead babe and almost dy-
ing husband When the storm broke in its
fury he started to his home, in great
haste, paying no attention to the surround
ing danger, and was pinioned to the earth
by falling tree. In this condition, says
the Bee, they were found by our informant,
James Ford, neighbor, who was coming to
see how they Jared, it being 2:30 o'clock
when he came upon them. By superhuman
efforts he relased Mr.. Beckett, whosee leg
was broken and arm dislocated and crushed,
and after making them comfortable as
possible, and partially reviving the poor wo
man, he FASTENED home for assistance, and
carried them gently to friendly shelter,
where kind hearts, words and deeds soon
made them as comfortable as possible. A
physician attended the husband and wife,
while an undertaken prepared the little one
'or its last resting place. Yesterday it was
buried on the exact spot where it was killed,
this being the mothers request, attended
only by the kind neighbors, the mother be-
ing too weak to walk or even sit up in bed.
These poor. broken hearted people have re-
ceived terrible visitation. 1t should cause
us to thank the Ruler of the universe for
protecting us and ours during the dreadful
storm of that day

CHANGED TO PoRTLAND.-The last issue
of the Salem Mercury, 9th inst, contained
the valedictory of w. T. Cornell. who ceased
to be publisher of that paper from that
time. The paper will be removed to Portland
aud hereafter conducted by Walter S. Moss.
Under Mr.. Cornell's management, the Mer-
curry has been bold, fearless exponent of
Democracy, but, at the same time, an hon.
orabir and high-minded contemporary.
Aside froiG politics we wish it abundant sue
cess. The removing of the Mercury to Port
expect a lively fight between it and the
Standard for party honors.

Taken before retiring will insure good
nights rest, with an awakening in the rosy
morn to health, courage and vigor. For
coated tongue, bad breath, sick headache, or
torpid liver, it is without peer. It's action
on disease is entirely different from any
medicine ever introduced, qnieting pains
almost instantly. The hue and cry raised
against it by patent medicine men, who have
foreseen in its advent the destruction of their
nefarious business, and the thousands of un-

WHY VIII You

Allow cold to advance in your system
and thus encourage more serious maladies,
such as Pneumonia, Hemorrhages and Lung
troubles when an immediate relief can be so
readily attained. Boschee's German Syrup
has gained the largest sale in the world for
the cure of Coughs, Colds and the severest
Lung Diseases, 1t is DIR. Bosohee's famous
prescription, and is prepared with the great
est care, and no fear need be entertained in
administering it to the youngest child, as
per directions. The sale of this medicine is
unprecedented. Since first introduced there
has been constant increasing demand and
without single report of failure to do its
work in any case. Ask your Druggist as to
the truth of these remarks. Large size IS
cents. Try it and be convinced

JOINT SENATOR.

Some weeks ago the Benton Blade made
favorable mention of Hon. r. A. Bensell as
the probable Republican candidate for joint
senator for Polk and Benton, at the coming
June election. No better choice. in our
opinion, could be made, provided Mr.. Ben
sell would consent to allow his name to be
used. He was an able, wideawake repre-
sentative from this county, fully alive to ev-
cry public enterprise, always in his seat,
and voted right every time No man, in
either county, is better posted as to the
wants and necessities of the people, and no
one would more ckeerfully and readily rise
above party to serve the public interests.
From all portions of our own county, and
from Polk, where Mr.. B. has hosts of per.
sonal friends, come encouraging words, ia
vorable to his nomination and election.
Benton county has no more devoted friend
and earnest, active worker than Hon. r. a.
'Bensell, and his nomination would meet al
most universal approval.

The STORM IN KINGS VALLEY.

EDITOR GAZETTE On Friday, the 9th
inst, one of the most fearful wind storms
passed through this place that has been ever
witnessed, by even the oldest inhabitants.
Fences every where were blown down.
Trees were torn up by their roots or broken
like reeds, before the blast. The steeple Of
the Evangelical church was carried off, and
landed top down at convenient distance
from the church-damage, fifty dollars.
DR.. Morgan's house was blown over and
is a total wreck The family consisting of
Mrs. Morgan and six children escaped before
the house went over. All their household
furniture that could be broken is ruined.
Chairs, tables, bedsteads, stoves and other
furniture are completely smashed up. This
is a severe blow upon the family as the DR..
himself is away from home, in Eastern Ore
gon. Mr.. Lyman Maxield's house was lifted
from its foundation, but no partiular dam
age was done. Several sheds and out houses
were demolishd.
The waters of the Luckiamute have been
very high, which enabled the men who are
engaged in the logging business to run their
logs. William Harris with twenty men
have been at work, during the past summer,
putting saw logs in the Luckiainute for the
Salem market Mr.. Harris will take to Sa-
lem, this year, about two million feet of
logs from this place. JAMES CHAMBERS.

THE sToRm-klno IN BENTON.

Last Friday was day long to be remem-
bered in Oregon, and gave one reminder
of some of the tornadoes that frequently
visit the Atlantic seaboard. Corvallis and
Benson county escaped remarkably well, as
compared to some other localities. The
storm seems to have prevailed throughout
the entire state and in Washington Terri
tory.
In Corvallis but little serious damage was
done. Some two or three barns, and a few
outbuildings, went down before the raging
tempest, which lasted from abont ii A. NJ.
to 8 P. M; while signs, fences, loose lumber,
shade and fruit trees, and few chimneys
yielded to the elbow" 1t was, without
doubt, the most destructive wind storm that
ever visited this portion of the Willamette
valley, at least within the memory of the
"oldest inhabitant." The farmers have
suffered most in the prostration of fences,
which, in some instances, were laid fiat for
rifles, their barns and sheds have been de-
.nsiished, destroying much grain and hay,
,and injuring farm machinery which had
been stored away for winter. We have no
means, at this time, Of ascertaining the
amount of damage sustained, although quite
considerable, in the aggregate. 1t is quite
probable that large losses will occur in cat
tie, horses and sheep ranging in the timber,
as the destruction of timber was fearful.
But, SO far. we have not heard of human
life being lost, in this county, by the
storm.
In many places the roads are blockaded
by falling timber, and bridges are gone, rem
dering travelling very difficult and danger
ous The Yaquina mail was delayed for
two or three days and last Friday Geo.
Bentley returned in the evening with the
same mail he took in the morning, it being
impracticable to cross the Willamette at AL
bany. For several days, last week, in con-
sequence of high water, he was compelled
to cross the mail and express matter, to and
fro, in small boat, not being able to ferry
the coach at Albany. Taken altogether,
the past week has been one of the most
stormy ever experienced on this part of the
coast. On Tuesday afternoon the winds
1ulled, the rains ceased, and the sun shone
out warm and bright-and everybody seemed
happy.

Oregon will be one of the first to secure the
