Somebody has said something about wheat lining the bench, but wj hear nothing of it frwui any who hae seen it. Mr. Henry G.

One of the advantages pertaining to the new method of engraving by electricity, an electric pen having been invented for the purpose in Paris; is that the artist does all parts of his work, and with uo more trouble than if working with an ordinary pencil, and he can even operate in a dark room, with no other light than the glare from the induction spark. If a sheet of tissue paper with a sketch upon it is attached to a plate of copper or zinc, it is said that an engraving may be made with extraordinary facil ity by aid of the electric-pon engraver. 3 Irs.

A wonderful discovery, Kendall's j bpavm Cure. Head Advertisement, tfr i. The Doomed Crew. The sea gives up its dead, and the certainty is now fully established that not a soul survived the lost of the Lupata, one week ago lost night; off Tillainook head. At low tide last; Sunday Mr. Cloutrie, the Sea-side mail carrier, passed under the cliff of Tillamook head and there found the ghastly remains of twelve men. Five in one heap, and seven in another. Tluy were all divested f clothing, and the probability is that before leav ing the vessel the prepared to take the heat advantages posmble of the, last chance of saving their lives. But abts. the place where they came in was tiie most, forbidding spot along the whole const, an almost perpendicular cliff of rock, araitht which possibly, if living to reach it; they were dashed to death or prtshed m their futile at tempts to get jiway. The rock is not in sght fron the place where Mr. C!Htrie found tin, bodies. Our in fotRiattt, Mr. Grimes, ay.s the vessel la3s about one mile from the head, and one mile from the light-house rock. The bodies will be given chris tian burial, and a hhnrp look out will le kept for the others. The vessel is .Mipposod, from all information which we have; to have carried fourteen men besides Capt. Ravens aud his wife. Capt I r veil was not in eouiHiaud. It is most assuredly a very sorry incident with which t begin the new y-ar, and we hop, wo may never be called up to ohrmicle u pn trail ol to it. Our Bulk Exports. Before the days of elevators the great bulk of exports of breadstuff from the Atlantic seaboard consisted of flour, since then, however, the ex ports have been mainly in grain. But lateiy the exports of flour have show u a larger relative increase than grain, because of the improvement in milling and the increased use of sacks in plac of barrels. Minneapolis takes the lead in the tiur iutoiest. During the month of November the purchases of wheat by the millers of Minneap olis exceeded the receipts of wheat at any other primary w heat market in the United States except Chicago. It i evident that the time is fast ap proaching when Europe will receive the surplus product of America's wheat fields only in the shape of flour. Some of the largest mills of Minneapolis have the facilities for turning out as high sis 4000 barrels per day. The largest mill in Europe has a daily capacity of but 2,800 barreh, aud none of the European mills are fitted with the perfection of modern machinery used in the Minneapolis mills, lately described in The Asto- KIAX. A Possible Customer. Mr. Seebohm, in an interesting book recounting his recent experiences in Siberia, says that birds go to the Arctic regions to breed, not by thou sands, but by millions; and he tells us that the cause of this migration is the search after food, which is there pro vided for them with lavish prodigality. Seed eating birds find an immediate aud abundant supply of cranbeiries, cro wherries and other ground fruit, which have remained frozen during the" long winter and are accessible the moment the snow is melted; while insect eating birds have only to open their mouths in order to have them filled. The fact appears to be devel oping, that Siberia has been a greatly underrated territory. It is no colder than Canada, and much more fertile. It is said that the United States might successfully cultivate an important trade with it. It needs many things that we produce, and no other coun try lies so convenient to it as the United States. Its vast rivers empty themselves into our Pacific, and through them goods can be conveyed into all parts of the interior of the country, as readily as to Alaska. Attention No. I. Regular monthly meeting itofjvtii ing at 7 o'clock sharp. Ij.

Hon. Charles Crocker, of the Central and Southern Pacific rail ways, last month visited the old stamping grounds, "where we were poor together," in Hoosierdom. The Mishawaka Enterprise thus refers to the visit: Chas. Crocker, the California millionaire, whose wealth is esti mated at the modest lirures of from 3y,0ua0O0 to 840TOOO,000. was in towu Sunday for a short time, having Mopped off to visit South Henri relatives, on his way through the country by special car. The site of Misliawaka, where lie used to drive an ox team, work at the forge, and toil for his daily bread like xu ordinary . mortal, must have aroused Strang recollec tions in tite mind of a man who now ranks himself among the wealthiest men of the world. He had, however, iot forgotten some of his old friends, it appears; for lie stopped awd spoke to not a lew of them. Mattors of Record. KKAI. USTATK TKAXKBIC-. Heiij. II. Hunt to .M. K. .Stanley.

December :50th 1U ' Some idea of the amount of money which is annually taken out of the country by foreign ship-owners for performing our carrying trade may be gathered from the statistics of exports and imports. Thus during the fiscal year the exports to foreign countries amounted to 8823,950,353, an iucrease of Sl25,005,5tU over the previous year; but while this great increase is noted, our participation in the carry ing trade has diminished, having been less in the late fiscal year than in any which preceded it In 1877-78 the percentage of Americau tonnage in the carrying trade was 2G; in 1870-80 it was but 19. The returns of steaai tonnage are still mere significant In 1877 -78 the percentage was 21, while the past year it has fallen to 16. Nearly five-sixths in value of our foreign trade during the last fiscal year was carried on under other flags than our own. There ought to be statesmenship enough in this country not only to arrest this encroachment of foreign shipping upon our carrying trade, buUto devise ways and means for a new growth of our merchant marine. As the case now stand, we pay into the pockets of foreign ship owners aniiualiv well on toward $100. 000,000. " Frash sausage at Warren it Eaton's.

Case, of Astoria, in placing the new Syphon study lamp tin the market, would call the atten- tuition of the trade to .some of its merits.
