meeting of tradesmen was held, to-day.
for the purpose of giving expression to the
indignation of merchants at the course OF the
government in making public proclamation
that the cholera had appeared in Madrid. A
deputation will be sent to King Alfonso to
explain TO him the very serious injury done
to the trade of the capital by the official
declaration that cholera existed there. The
merchants will unite in a demonstration
against that they consider to be an extraor-
dinary act of the government in officially de-
claring the presence of cholera in Madrid.

He explicitly denied that he had at any time

Sawed the Bear of.

One of our popular jewellers, the ''initials
of whose name is w. C.. Crawford" for
several weeks past has been doing some
carpenter work aud assisting in the con-
struction of building for himself. Every
thing had went smoothly with the building
until last Monday, when Mr.. Crawford un-
dertook to saw Istick of timber in two
which he did quite painfully. He secured
one end OF the stick to the building and
climbed out on the end away from the build
ing which had no support and began saw
ing between himself and the building. He
had worked along in this measure for some
time, when all at once he realized that the
timber was sawed of, and that the bear
was also sawed off, and Crawford himself
had actually fell to the ground. The next
time the bear will have to stand on the
other end of the stick SO that MIR. Crawford
may not get hurt. Fortunate to say that
Mr.. Crawford only sprained his wrist, while
the "bear" did not otherwise get hurt.

The Portland ''News" has been little
TOO premature in its item about the letting
of the contract for the construction of the
ladder over the falls at Oregon City, and
also that the contract had been secured by
the Portland Iron Works. Commissioner
Baldwin informs us that The contract has
not as yet been secured by any one, but il
all probability will be let in few days, and
that the San Francisco bridge company will
be the successful competitors for the con
tract. From this it does not appear that
the Portland Iron Works secured the con
tract last Monday, aud that the ladder
would be built of Iron"
