IlailroiMl Suit.

The Oregon Central Railroad Company(incorporated last September,) broughtMiit in the Circuit Court of Marion county,at the June term, praying for an injunction to restrain the Oregon Central Rail- -

mad Companj' (incorporated a couple ofOmonths since) from the use of plaintiff'sOuarne, and from usurping its ofiices, mak-

ing contracts, etc. The Ikcord ofSatur-d.iy furnishes the following synopsis ofthe ease and the decision of the court :

Oregon Central Railroad Company vs.Oregon Central Railroad Company. Theo.np'ahu ailepcs that the nlaintiff is n. rnr- -

poratioii organized under the general in- -

.rporation law of Oregon, under the corporate name of Oregou Central RailroadCompany; that it lias certain valuablefranchises, secured by act of Congress,ind also from the Legislature of this State,in the shape of lands, right of way. thel.ihhofthe State to pay seven per centinterest cm one million dollars of bonds,ce.; a! so, that the defendant, who is suedis a corporation under the. same name, has

wrongfully assumed the corporate namef th plaintiff, is usurping and intruding

CJsself ijjto the offices of plaintiff, and in-

fringing on the use of its corporate name(Vind functions, and prays a perpetual in- -

.r.iiicuou restraining ueiendant lrora theise of plaintiffs corporate name and from 1

usurping its ofiices, making contracts. &c.Defendants demurred to complaint, on

the following grounds, in substance : 1st,Tiiat the plaintiff, according to its ownshowing in the complaint,

.. is nnt a W.iilv.0..,authorized corporation, on account of de-fects in Its organization, as shown in thecompla'nt. 2d, That the plaintiff's rem- -

following : Rev. I. D. Driver preachedSunday evening at the CongregationalChurch. During the services, one ot thespindles nuts of his buggy was' taken offand thrown on the ground, and therefound this morning. Fortunately, andprovidentially, ?dr. Driver Lad the spindles reset on Friday, and they being pei--

j fecily true, the wheel went to his house,over a mile, in safety. He was driving afiery ycnr.g horse at the lime, and the results of an accident might have been veryserious to himself and his lady. The question is, did some boy, finding the nut easilyturned, take it off and find himself unableto replace it, or was it the work of someone who purposely risked life and propertyto be in mischief? If the latter, he shouldbe discovered and pnnisLcfl. A little at-

tention now, may save eome of the youthof our city, who grow reckless in propor-tion to their opportunities, a term in thepenitentiary.

The flouring nilll of the WillametteManufacturing Company, at Salem, ship-

ped three hundred and thirteen and one-ha- lf

tons of flour in the month cf June.One hundred and three tons went io theQuartermaster of the Department of theColumbia ; and the remainder to SanFrancisco.

The Unionist says : " According to ouropinion, there is no company organized inthis State that can receive any benefitfrom the U. S. Lands, or State aid towardsbuilding a railroad, nor can they even beauthorized to do so, until the Legislatureof this State has met and by joint resolu-tion designated a company to receive theaid and lands above mentioned. We re-gr- ot

as much as anybody the muss ourrailroad prospects have got into, but theLegislature is our only source of remedy,and until that body meets, tilings must re-

main as they are. If companies can goon and build roads without Governmentor Stale aid, we will be glad of it ; if not.we must be content to abide our time.The Record, edited by S. A. Clarke, saysthe above position is undoubtedly correct.

Tut: Califorxi.v Grain Crop. The Cali-fornia Bee of the 20th, says: The harvest,which a fortnight ago, from general rumor,was thought to bo little more than half acrop, will probably bo nearly a full onein most of the grain growing counties.Such are now tlie reports, says the Alta.from Napa, Alameda. Santa Clara, SanJoaquin, Yolo and Sonoma. The areaplanted is a fourth greater than last year,and the yield will no doubt be greater.The yield of fruit will be enormous, savein the far north, where it has suffered fromlate frosts. The agricultural prospectswere never seemingly go prosperous as attins time.

When Senator Williams, in response to !

the serenade givea Lim in this city, says anthe Oreoonian, staled thai he drafted thebill which is known as the reconstructionlaw, a good many Democrats in privatelife as well as of the press, affected to dis-

credit the statement and sought to make isappear that the Senator hud told it as a

sort of cock-and-bu- ll story to give himselfimportance before the people ofgOre- -

gon, which his public services would notwarrant. This, of roil nni.'

were the two most important bills passedby the Thirty-nint- h Congress. For a manwho has been in the Senate but a part ofone term, in the midst of the most distinguished statesmen of the liepublicwhohave served in that body twelve to fifteenyears, to have originated and carriedthrough the leading measures of a veryimportant Congress, is a distinction, I believc, which no other Senator has evergained. Aside from his character as alegislator, he ranks high on the committees, lie was chairman of the committeeon Contingent Expenses and it is notusual to place a new Senator at the headof a committee and is now chairman ofthe committee on Public Land Claims. He 7is a member of the Finance Committeethe most important of all the committeesin the Senate. There is but two who rankabove him on this committee Sherman, 0

Disaster. The burning of the OregonIron Works, at Portland, on Wednesdaymorning, v as a disaster to thai place. Thefollowing account of the lire is from theOrcgonkta of Thursday : Wo have beenenabled by thorough and persistent in- -

Iuiry to la' before our readers further ofthe particulars relating to tne destructionof the Oregon Iron Foundry yesterdaymorning. The following are the ownersof stock in the company as near as we canascertain them : Stephen Coffin, (whoseinterest covered two-fifth- s of the entireestablishment) D. McCully, A. McCulIy.E. M. Cooke, S. T. Church, AY. S. Fowell,J. W. Clawson, Dr. Yv II. Watkins, Win.

C. Jamison, A. Myers andine loss is estimated by

tlie President, without any definite and de-

terminate knowledge below the figureswo mentioned yesterday mornicg-S80,00- 0.

There was an insurance on the works tothe extent of $10,000. Mr. McCully, tliePresident, having loaned the company$10,000, required it to securean insuranceto that amount for his benefit, which wasdone. The fire originated in the extremesouth-we- st corner of the casting building,which is located on the south-wes- t cornerof the block. On Tuesday, the men inthat part of the works had been casting,and had run off the surplus metal from thecupola into a corner of the building, uponwhich surplus metal the laborers hadplaced the flasks (being the casing of thesand of which the molds are made.) andbeing decidedly combustible, the heat re-

tained by the metal caused their ignition,which led to the rapid envelopment of thewhole establishment by the ravenous ele-

ment. At the west side of the building,one header completed and one nearlycompleted were saved, one small lathebut a beautiful piece of mechanism, wascarried from the building unhurt. Thebooks and papers belonging to the business of the concern were all saved. Theloss of each individual stockholder is notto be known until further developmentsand thorough investigation of all the losses.The heaviest loser is Stephen Coffin, placedat about $ 10,000. Mr. Davis, the patenteeof the reaper being manufactured by thew orus tor mm, is aboat bu.OOO. Therewere twenty of the reapers quite if notentirely completed. Governor Gibbs, ashort time since sold out his entire interest, thereby saving himself from loss.Stephen Coffin a short time since, we un-

derstand, sold an interest to Mr. Masters,and was negotiating for a transfer cf astill further interest, but the negotiationwas not complete. One important pieceof machinery called a slotting machine(which in English is a machine for mor-tising iron) passed the fiery ordeal with-out receiving any damage. Y"e learn,after further inquiry , that Wm. Lair Hill,Esq., is a loser by about $1,700. Thefiremen did their duty as became them,and worked with a will to save all theproperty they possibly could, Althoughthere was no wind, still the houses on thenorth, across the street, would have beenconsumed had not the firemen stayed itsscorching effects upon the roof of the resi-dence near by. Had there been a breeze,even, from the northwest, the CentralPublic School House, a fine building,would have been in danger ; hut withPortland firemen at the apparatus, andwith half a show, they would have savedit harmless from fire and baptised it withwater in les? time than it takes us to write

Congressional tickets. The invitation o.comes from a large number of the most

prominent Union men of that State. This.

a flattering compliment to our State.Fred. Schwatka has passed examination for

and been admitted as a Cadet at Yv'est

Point. At the regular session of theBoard of Examiners, he was ill at Baltimore, but was passed at .a special ' sitting

the 20ih inst. So says his dispatch to

friends here.Subsequent to the conclusion of the

railroad, suit, at Salem, on Friday after-

noon, Samuel Clark, of the Record, and J.Gaston, attorney for the defeated railroad oncompany, had a pugilistic encounter, inwhich, however, no great amount of bloodwas spilled, thanks to the intervention ofbystanders. This is the first collision"

the Oregon Central Railroad.A correspondent of ihe Mountaineer,

writing from Canyon City, says : A prospecting parly. to Crooked river is beingtalked of, to start from here in a shorttime, and from what I can learn it will becomposed of the right sort of men ; sothat before fall we may expect to hear ofthe place being found where the emigrants

'43 hammered the out on theirwagon tire:-?-

We learn from a reliable source, savsthe Mountaineer, that there is a great com-

motion among the Government contractorsand gentlemen connected with the Q. M.

Department, relative to the letting of con-

tracts for transportation and etceteras.A ladies" fair will be held at St. Pauls

Church, on the French Prairie, on the Sthand 8th of July. Of the object of the fair,we are not informed.

Gov. Woods has accepted the YaqulnaPay .Wagon Road, says the Record. Hesays of it, that it is the best mountain .roadhe ever saw.

The steamer Yidchna, Capt. Coo, Master,on her last trip to Lewiston, made the en-

tire distance from Celilo to Lewiston 27t)

miles at the rapid rate of 41 hours and 33minutes, running time. Returning theYakima made the same distance (fromLewiston back to Celilo) in hours and

minutes. Adding to the latter the timeusually occupied in making the distancefrom Celilo to Portland, about 9 hours,the trip could have been made to Portlandin i uours ami minutes, and me entiretrip from Portland to Lewiston and backin the astonishing short time of 72 hoardand 42 minutes. Further, we are informedthat from Lewiston to Fori Benton, by theLolo Fork trail, in the summer, the entireinstance can be made in ( days, wuichwould bring us within 1 1 days, 2 hoursand f3 minutes of Fort Beaton..

Cape. Miller formerly in command of thebark Almalia, is now the master of theArchitect, running between San Franciscoand Paget Sound.

The following items of news we clipfrom the Mountaineer of the 26th uit : Theup-riv- er freights have been very good du-

ring the last week. The down-rive- r

freights for the week ending Thursday2Cth, amounted to 3000 pounds wool ; 220quarter sacks Hoar and 1200; hidesYvro are informed that Mes.rrs. Robbins &

Weaver of this city have a contract fortransporting one hundred anil eighty tonsof Government freight from San Franciscoto the different military camps in IdahoTerritory. They also have the transporting of one hundred tons of flour fromWaila YValla to the same destination. Thefreight is shipped from San Francisco toPortland in sailing vessels, and from Portland to Yvrallu!a bv the O.S.N. Co. "s boats,and we are told, considerable cheaperthan It can be carried by an other route

We are glad to learn, by a privatebut authentic letter, that Col. Marshalland Capt. Eckerson, U. S. A., have beenhonorably acquitted of all the chargespreferred against them by the Court of In-

quiry which recently sat upon their caseat Fort Poise, composed of able and hon-orable officers of the army, CorporalKennedy, Co. F., U. S Artillery, arrivedin this city on Wednesday, from WallaYv'alla, in charge of two men of the 8thCavalry, who he was conducting to FortVancouver for trial, one for dese'rtlon andthe other for being drunk and disorderly.

The Roseburg paper says that SenatorWilliams will address the citizens of thatplace on the 20th of July.

The Advocate says Clear Creek camp-meeti- ng

is now in progress, under the di-

rection of Rev. J. F. Devore, P. P. andRev. C. Alderson, P. C. There is also acamp meeting in progress in the Browns-ville circuit.

The Salem Record says : " The churchedifice being constructed on the southeastcorner of High and Center streets, by the" Christian'-- ' denomination, popularlyknown as " Campbcliites'' will be oneof the handsomest in the city. Itis of brick, the walls being 22 feet in theclear. It stands 3Gx5G feet on the ground,and is only four feet each way smallerthan the 31. E. Church. The building isnow ready for the plasterer, and so forward to completion that it is expected services will bo held there in the month cfAugust.

We have cur opinion of a man whowould strike a woman, rob a hen roost, orsteal from a local Editor. Yfo condolefriend Pull, who, while subbing lor Capt.Crandall, had his cherry orchard robbed.

Portland is raising about five hundredvigorous young chaps for the Penitentiary.Oregon City has about twenty fifh liketendencies.

Consternation exists nmorg the Salempeople, who found out one fine day lately,that Salem didn't own Marion Square somuch as she used to. The widow of thedonor of the land claims it. They say apettifogger or two is at the bottom of thecase.

Senator Thayer sent the following dis-

patch to Gen. "Grant and the Secretaryof the Interior : "If Gen. Puford reported what the telegraph attributes to himin regard to Indians matters, he is guilivof reckless misrepresentation or cruelstupidity. The warfare now being carried on upon the plains by jhe savageIndians upon small parties of deicnseless settlers, railroad surveying parties andlaborers is barbarous and unprovoked.The Government must not be deluded byany such reports as Buibrd's."

cau.--e of suit, or that authorize a court ofequity to interfere by injunction. 4th,That several causes of suit are improperlyunited.

The Court sustained the demurrer gen-rra- y.

holding that according to the lan- -

guagn 01 u:e complaint it tailed to showthat plaintiff was a legally authorized cor-poration. The Court further held that thecon-plain- (which contained twenty pagesof closely written matter) did not presenta case that would authorize the interfer-ence of a court of equity, or the issuing ofan injunction, that the mere adoption of

q the same corporate name of plaintiff didnot authorize an injunction, except thecompiaint had shown an interference withfive rights and functions of plaintiff, andthis the Court held the complaint failedto show ; that the mere fact of the' defend-ant, assuming, the same corporate name ofplaintiff and of making contracts in thatname, aad issuing stock and bonds in suchname, was not such an interference withany rights of plaintiff a3 would authorizean injunction.

This decision goes directly to the wholemerits of the plaintiffs case, and it is im-

possible to make any amendment that willentitle plaintiff to another standinjr inCourt.
