An Opportunity to Hear italian
and French Grand Opera in
Baltimore.

We wish to call the special attention
of our readers to the announcement in
our advertising columns of the great
treat in store for those who admire the
higher plane of music in opera, and
who are willing to pay q liberal price
to gratify their desires in this regard.
Persons in his city and county have
at hand an opportunity never before
presented to them: that of hearing the
most noted singers in the world in Ital-
ian aud French opera at the Academy
of Music, in Baltimore, under the d.
rect direction of Messrs. Abbey, Schoef-
ffel and Grau, assisted by the Harris
Britton and Dean Company. Those
who read the newspapers often see the
names of Melba, Scalchi, Nordica
Mlntelli, Eames Sybil Sanderson,
Lucille Hill, Eduard and Jean
DE Reske, Francesca Tamagno, We
tor Maurel, Pol Plancon, Mario
Ancona, Sig. Campanari, Octavio
NOuvelli, and Others mentioned in con-
nection with the creditable perform
ances of iFaust. Romeo ct Juliette,
Otello II Trovatore. Tannhauser Cav
aleria Rusticana, Carmen, Hamlet,
Semiramide, Martha and other well
known works Of the great composers.
These artists will positively appear in
Baltimore in connection with Grand
Opera on Monday. Tuesday and We'd
nesday, February 18th, 18th and Goth.
in Lohengin, Otello and Faust. Those
who can. should not fail to see this ex.
ceilent combination. 1t is chance of
lifetime, and reflects unbounded cred
. D..a \ 7
Company, for their enterprise and ap-
probation of the public want. Tie
trip from this city to Baltimore, in-
GLIDING good seat at the opera and
a nights lodging need not cost more
than ten ($l0) dollars, or even less.
To our mind it would be wise expen-
diture for those who care to hear the
granjest voices on the operatic stage
in any land. For price Of seats and
other information see advertisement.

DR.. PARKHURsT has written book.
We thought it would come. 1t always
does. The moment an American does
anything creditable or otherwise. he
rushes into print, DR.. Parkhurst did
agood work, but the publishing of a
book for mercenary motives seems to
be i'll advised. We would rather think
of the doughty divine as working for
purely philanthropic principles; al
though it must be acknowledged that
philanthropy puts few coins in empty
pockets. Perhaps the doctor needs the
money; who knows?

Hon. Outerbridge Horsey Conyal-
eScing.

1t gives us great pleasure to state
that Hon. Outerbridge Horsey, of near
Petersville, this county, well known
all over the country, aud most esti-
mable and popular gentleman, has
sufficiently recovered from his illness
to warrant strong expectations Of
an ultimate recovery. The attack
was brought on by sleigh ride, on
which he became unusually chilled,
and the result was confinement in
bed and serious complication. His
many friends will be pleased to hear
of his present convalescence, hoping
that it might continue and conclude
with complete recovery. Mr.. Horsey
is finely preserved man. and has
heretofore escaped in a great measure
any serious disease. Let as hope he
will soon be out and attending to his
numerous business interests.

The London Times and Standard
spoke favorably Of Mr.. Cleveland's
message and it remained for a rene
gade millionaire, Mr.. Astor, editor of
the PaR MAJ Gazette, a self-exiled
American, to speak eontemptuously of
it. 1t simply shows that Astor, truck
ling to the aristocracy of England, in
whose ranks he is making desperate
efforts to gain a foot hold, wants to
show his aue Americaphobia and vent
his personal venom on the country that
gave him his fortune.

A Pleasant Surprise.

Quite an unexpected surprise visit
was paid Mr.. and Mrs. George S. Ro-
dock, well known in this city, by
their numerous friends, upon the occas-
sion OF the tenth anniversary of their
marriage, last Monday night. The
ladies who planned the affair were:
Mrs. John H. Abbott, Mrs. o. p. Ben
nett, the Misses Maggie Quynn and
Jennie Beckley, and the result of their
clever management was revealed in
the complete astonishment of the com
pulsory host and hostess. About forty
guests We're present and all passed
a delightful time. Many wishes for
long life and increased prosperity were
expressed, and hearty thanks returned
for the compliment.

AMPLE REVENUE.
Secretary Carlisle Estimates an
Excess of Import Duties Over
Expenditures of S2o,OOO,-
600 for the Year Ending
December 3lst, 1895.

The new tariff law works exceed
ing well, as We at all times predicted
it would. Receipts from revenues at
this time available already exceed the
indebtedness of the government and
with the additional proceeds of the in-
come tax, now operative, there is no
fear OF failure TO meet the current
expenses. The revival Of business all
over the country, the starting up Of the
long idle wheels of the mauufactories
aud the general confidence which at
present exists is the anticipated ST.
quence OF the passage Of the new tariff
law.
Whrtever doubts that may have been
entertained upon this sunject, have
beeu strewn aside like chaff before the
wind. Secretary Carlisle recently
prepared "a brief reply to the notice
served upon him 10y the Senate, to
state the condition of the Treasury in
regard to revenue receipts, which show
that IN that quarter no serious appre-
hensions need b. entertained.
The letter is brief aud to the point
as iolloWs: In reply to the Senate res
olutions of January 2S, 1895, that the
Secretary of the Treasury he directed
t. Inform the Senate what is the esti-
III ted deficiency in the revenues of
TIE government To pay current expen.
ses between the 3lst day of December,
1894, and the 3lst day of December,
1875, and if the $l53, ,337, ,579 80 cash
balance i'll the treasury on the 3lst
day of December, 1894, will be suffi-
cient to meet such deficiency" |
have the honor to state that from the
estimates made upon the basis of laws
now in force it is believed that for the
twelve months ending December 3lsl,
1873, the revenues of the government
from all Sources will exceed ordinary
expenditures by So, ,563 023.

Severe Cold Spell.

The cold spell on Saturday and Sum
day last was the most severe of the win
ter. There has been an almost unpre-
cedented continuance of snow and ice.
and the sleighing aud skating conse-
quently has been excellent. The trot-
ters and PAGERS have turned Market
street into racing ground and numer-
Gus brushes have taken place. The in
tense cold has in many instances so
completely benummed the sparrows
and other birds, that many have been
found lying along the streets in this
city, frozen to death.

II seems that the greatest amount of
work done in the House and Senate is
in debating on rules and minor matters
to the entire exclusion of vital legisla-
ton. When financial topics are dis
cussed it is usually with a view of oc-
cupying time not already burdened
with subject. Speaking of rules,
there should be one enacted to prevent
so much unnecessary chin music.

Back From Ydguind.

The United States board of
engineers, who went over to va.
Quina bay TO examine the bar at its
mouth with view to further i'm
provements Of the channel, arrived
here Sunday evening, having been
furnished with a special train to
Albany, where they connected with
the Roseburg local for this city.
They greatly enjoyed the trip.
The weather was delightful, and at
Newport they met a fine lot Of
representative people from Albany,
Corvallis and elsewhere. These
people accompanied the board on
an excursion out to the end of both
jetties, and, at the meeting on Sat-
urday evening, made some good
speeches and presented carefully
prepared statistics, showing how
very desirable it was that there
should be as good a harbor there as
possible. The board was favorably
impressed, and will carefully inves-
tigate the limitations of nature con-
nected with the project.
Yesterday the board was busy all
day investigating all the available
data bearing on the subject in
hand. Captain Symons, who ac-
companied the board on their trip,
will have more surveys made to
ascertain present existing conditions
on the bar, depth of water, currents,
ETC., and the board will not formu-
late report till all these additional
data have been considered.
Colonel Stickney is the only
member of the board who has not
before visited the Pacific coast. He
has been very favorably impressed
with the country and climate. He
leaves this morning to visit the
Cascade locks, and have look at
the dalles and the site of the pro-
posed boat railway, and will take
the east.bound train at The Dalles
this evening. Major Sears, another
member of the board, was stationed
on the coast in southern California
tor several years, some time since.
He goes East by way of California.
Major Post, the other member OF
the board, remains here, ofcourse
-Oregonian.

SPECIAL TERM.

AT special term of the county

argument against said petition by
Prof. Chas. Lambert, w. L. Dwyre

Il False Statement.

That there has always been
certain eumity toward Yaquina Bay
BY Portland parties has been well
known. The following taken fron
the Telegram Of that city IS a
sample Of their methods Of maligu-
ing the harbor here:
"The people living al Newport
and other towns Of Yaquina bay are
being given another chance to
secure the long-hoPed for appropri-
alton from the government, where
with to deepen the channel and
make the use Of the bay feasible at
all times Of the year for ea-going
vessels. Already two boards Of
engineers have decided adversely
TO the improvement and yesterday
special and final board, consisting
Of Colonel Stickney, Major Sears
and Major Post left for Newport to
again examine and report on the
channel and bay. There has been
expended by the government in the
effort 10 form deepwater channel
at the mouth Of Yaquiua bay the
sum Of 1861 AT, the improvements
consisting OF jetties running from
the north and south headlands OF
the bay. These have had the usual
effect Of deepening the channel but
have not been sufficient to prevent
the formation each winter and
spring Of an inner bar, which
efctually prevents the entrance Of
deepwater vessels into the harbor
during those seasons Of the year.
In the summer and iall this bar
disappears through the action Of
high water in the Yaquiua river
and the absence of sou'easterly
storms. Il IS TO look into the pos
sibility Of overcoming this bar that
the present board makes its visit,
the people Of Newport having re-
quested that no engineer officer
who has been connected with prior
improvements on the harbor be ap.
/ pointed on the board. Captain
Symons, under whose supervision
the existing jetties were built,
nevertheless accompanied the en-.
gineers. The party will return
Monday"
The above is full Of false state
ments just gilded with enough
truth to make it dangerous. In the
first place the impression that
Newport and other towns oi
Yaquina Bay" are the only ones
interested Is false in the extreme.
Thousands of tons of imports and
exports Of the great Willamette
valley pass in and out through thi:
port, and the saving in freighr
runs into thousands of dollars an.
nually. And in this fact alone lie:
much of the cause of the enmity
existing toward Yaquina harbor
The vilest columuy of the article
quoted above, however, lies in the
statement that an inner bar forms
each winter which effectually pre-
vents the entrance of deep vessels
There has been no such bar formed
for years, and the Improvement.
already made have prevented suct
formation. Another thing, there j.
no high water in the Yaquin:
river during the summer. Th,
only high water is in the winter
just at the time the Telegram say
the bar forms.
