At Brownsville. Lat week we
spcntadayatBrownsvil.e, one of the
prettiest and most romantically situut
cd villages on the coast. Most of our
readers know that Brownsville is locat
ed in the northern part of this county,
at the base of the Cascade .Vountains
Vhere the beautiful Calipooia river
bursts throught the mountain frstnes
s and "gets its start?' for a long and
devious course across the prairie in the
direction of the broad Willamette.
The village was named in honor of its
founder, Hon. Hugh L. Brown, who
for several years ably represented Linn
county in our Territorial and State
legislatures and who is at present a
much respacted resident of this city.
The Calipooia courses through the
middle of the town and furnishes an
abundant supply of water for several
iimtortant manufacturing establish
ments chief among which is J. M.
Mover's sash and door factory, which
is the largest establishment of the kind
In the State. It is a two-story build
ing of mammoth capacity, furnished
with the latest improvements in the
way of machinery, and is carried on
under the supervision of Mr. JAyer,
the proprietor, who is said to be a very
superior mechanic. He inspected some
wagon timbers, doors, sash, etc., man
ufactured there, which cannot be sur
passed ei.her for skill or utility. This
establishment is supplied with the very
f best cf tiruberfroni the mountain mills
above there, and is now furnishing its
work to various parts of the State at
much cheaper rates than other similar
institutions. Brownsvil.'e also has a
large grist mill where Mr. John Caro
line turns out as good an article of flour
as can be produced in the Oregon mar
ket. The principal source from which
Brownsville originally gained its im
portance was the woolen manufactory,
which, however, has not been in oper
ation for two or three years. It is hop
ed that arrangements may be effected
for the early resumption of this impor
tant enterprise, which event will again
render that village of great irapertance
among Oregon manufacturing towns.
Brownsvsille has five stores, all of
l i j. 7 Y w,
He h-served that Messrs. Coshow,
Morgan Co., in North Brownsville,
and Jessrs. Cboley llashbuni and
M. Abrams, in South Brownsville, all
have exceedingly extensive establish
ments, and on the day of our sojourn
there all of them seemed to be well
supplied with customers. We are in
debted to each of the alove named gen
tlemen for favors and courtesies shown
us while there.
We found our old Democratic friend,
W. C. Baird, busily engaged at the
bellows and forge, but he could find
time to spin us a marvelous hunting
yarn in which he recently participated
and in which eighteen deer forfeited
their lives to his own and his compan
ions' sylvan prowess. Bro. Beard is
undoubtedly; a mighty hunter before
the world.
'After exchanging greetings with
Senator Crawford, Hon. A. S. Bassett,
Capt. Blakely and other friends, we
departed for home in Halhoit's express,
feeling that it is good to be permitted
to grasp the hands and hob-nob in a
friendly way with the Brownsvillians.
Another Fike. Last Monday even
ing Albany was visited by a fire, which,
but for the unusually deep snow which
had fallen, would have doubtless been
the most destructive one known for
years. The fire was discovered issuing
from the picture gallery in the upper
tory of Thompson Irving1 s saddlery
shop, but then had gained such great
headway that it was impossible to
save anything in the gallery. Thad
dlery and harness goods, however, weie
all removed from the lower rooms and
eaved from destruction. The building
was entirely consumed, but, being
sandwiched between two fire-proof
brick buildings, no'further damage was
done. The lire engine was promptly
on hands, but the valves and pipes
were so tightly frozen that the build
ing was beyond the power of salvation
when the machine got to squirting.
The fire is supposed to have been caus
ed by a coal of fire or sparks flying
from the stove on the carpet in the gal
lery, as Mr. TFinter, the photographist,
had left a small fire in the stove when
he went home from the gallery in the
evening. Entire loss, $3,000 being
$2,000 on the picture gallery apparatus
and fixtures and $1,000 on the building
The loss of the building is covered by
an insurance of $1,000, and Mr. Win
ter had an Insurance of $1,000 on his
gallery.
Mr. A. B. Paxtor had just purchas
ed 5o00 worth of Mr. Winter's niateri
al and was to have taken charge of the
gallery this week. His stock was des
troyed with that of Mr. Winter, and
he is consequently deprived of a place
of business and a stock of material, all
by the cruel "ravages of the fierce fire-
College Enteet aznment. We
trust our citizens will not forget this
entertainment to-night. It is given by
the Sigma Phi Society, assisted by the
Aueipuian (society Dotn or tne Alba
ny College the proceeds to be an-
propriated to the purchase of a carpet
for the College Library. The object is
a worthy one, and from our knowledge
ofthe talent which' will be employed
on the occasion we are satisfied that a
rare entertainment will be given. Let
us an turn out ana give the aspiring
young histrions, orators, declaimera.

fant in the land.
FRIDAY-
Christmas. This event will be ush- J
ered in on next Monday by the blow
ing of tin trumpets, firing of fire crack
ers and rocking of china dolls among
thejuyenli fratrrnlty, and with per
haps a corresponding amount of fuss
and boisterousness among the adult
bipeds. Christmas is of remote origin,
having "got its start" away back at
Bet hie mem of Judea about the begin
ing of the year A. D. 1, since which
time it has managed to put iu an ap
pearance on or about the 23th of De
cember of each recurring year. It was
brought to America In 1492 by Christo
pher Columbus, and therefore may be
ranked aa one ofthe "oldest inhabit
ants." It travels in company with a
hoary headed old fellow of jolly phiz
and sprightly mien, properly known
as Santa Claus, Kris Kringlo or Old
Sooty, whose headquarters have been
from time Immemorial in the same es
tablishment with McCormlck'a Alma
nac and the Chinook Dictionary. It
was at one time thought that Santa
Claus was a base fraud and was only
a mother or father in disguise, but this
fallacious proposition has long since
been exploded by the absolute and
Incontrovertible testimony of more
than a million truthful boys and girls
of the period, who have seen him In
their dreams as well as in his tangible
self in their waking hours. Christmas
Is generally regarded as a "big thing
on ice," but in this country that dis
tinguished appellation Is hardly "just
the cheese" because of the scarcity of
that article which the "big thing"
must ba on. As Christmas will be
hard upon us In a day or two, and as
editors are expected to say some
thing nice to their readers about that
time, we will now let fly for that In
teresting epoch the highly original and
eminently appropriate wish to all our
patrons, without distinction of race,
color or previous good character "A
Merry Christmas!',
A ATountain Hunt. Wm. C. B., of
Brownsville, writes us a long and Inter
esting account of a recent hunt which
himself and Josepn and James Pearle,
and others of that vicinity participat
ed in, but as we received it on the eve
of going to press we find it impossible
to do more than give a brief synopsis j
of it through our columns. The hunt
was made on ML Hebron (not that hill
before Hebron up which Sampson car
ried the mighty gates of the city ofthe
Philistines) about' 20 miles south of
Brownsville, In the Cascades, and last
ed four days, at the expiration of which
time no loss than eighteen deer were
strung upon a "butcher's gallows"
alnvit the camp fire. The hunters had
left their wagon at the foot of the
mountain, ami were forced to pack
their venison upon horses down to it,
and after they got the eighteen deer
deposited in the wagon looking like
the slaughtered 7cssians, heaps on
heaps the champion Ximrods started
homeward. H'hen they came to the
vicinity of Brownsville they placed a
pair of antlers upon the head of each
of the four horses attached to the wag
on and also a huge pair on a mule
which they had hitched in the "fifth
lead" and upon which a gallant hunter
rode as a guide. Also, the bridle of
each animal was ornamented with a
deer-hide fly-switcher and other tro
phies of the chase and in this gro
tesque manner the cavalcade made
their grand entry Into town in a
sweeping trot, amid the barking of
dogs and the astonished gaze of the
startled Brownsvillians. This is the
most successful hunt and the jollies:
one of which we have recently receiv
ed any knowledge.
Married, Divorced asd Married
Again. About two years ago Mr.Ruel
Custar and Mrs. Lines, both of this
county, were married, and as their do
mestic relations failed to glide as
smoothly as both desired, they figured
in a divorce suit at our Circuit Court
last month, and were duly separated by
the forms of law "in such cases made
and provided." But, after due reflec
tion they found that they bad made a
terrible mistake in thus severing the
nuptual cord which bound their lives
together, and, accordingly on Thursday
of last week, immediately after paying
off the costs of the divorce suit
amounting to nearly $2,500 they pro
cured the requisite license and were
again made two souls with but a
single," and-so-forth. We trust that
the reunited pair, who now "know
how It is themselves" for the second
time, may never have occasion to re
gret their second unioau
Holiday Amusememts. As the
Holiday season approaches fun comes
on apace, and we will soon be in the
very midst of the annual festivals in
cident to that gala occasion. To-nignt
the College students give an exhibi
tion at the College, and the Odd Fel
lows will enjoy a sociable with their
families at the Odd Fellows' Hall. To
morrow evening all hands will partici
pate in the Christmas Tree enterprise
at the Court House. On Monday night
(Christmas) the lovers of the "light
fantastic" will worship at the shrine of
Terpsichore in Parrish's iZall. On
Wednesday night following the Jiason-
ic Order of this city will have their an
nual installation of officers and the at
tendant festival at their IZall; and
doubtless many other entertainments
to while away the Holiday nights will
be inaugurated as the season advances.
A Sharp Nig. Albany boasts the
shrewdest little nigger now living. His
ways that are dark and tricks that are
vain have already gained him a State
reputation, and it only needs Bret
Harte or John Hay to immortalize him,
After the fire last Tuesday morning he
went into Settlemier's store and asked
George for a bit's worth of candy, and
after it was rolled up and given to him
he slyly laid down a bridle-bit which
he had gathered up from the debris of
the fire, and scuded for the door, leaving
the astonished but good-natured Set
tlemier standing behind the counter
with a countenance which betokened
"sold" in every lineament. That little
nigger win yet be a carpet-bag Con
gressman.
Music Mr. Gray, publisher, San
Francisco, sends us a selection of the
latest music, the "Vivian Medley" and
the "College Gallop" among them.
Mr. Gray is now regularly publishing
the productions of our home talent as
well as reprinting the most pleasing
European compositions. We shall
deem it a great favor to be regularly
supplied with Mr. Gray's productions.
